Senator Vest had better let his Eight to the
death" letter alone. There is no mistaking
its meaning. 1t was a square declaration for
free trade. 1t admits of no other explana-
tion. The only effect of trying to explain it
is to show how much more courageous DEM
ocrats were when this campaign began than
they are now. Then they were fighting for
principle. Now they declare that they
are contending for only a slight alter
alton in the tariff, which win not, they
say, interfere with the protection policy.
Once, in their estimation, protection was
robbery, now they all propose to be for it.
The wonder is not SO much at their complete
surrender, SO Tar as public ayowal is con-
cerned, OF its cherished principle, for they
have always been ready to do that for votes
as at their stupidity in supposing that the
people will be deceived by their perform
ance,

The movement to induce both Hewitt and
Grant to withdraw was chiefly the work of
Mr.. Ottendorfer, of the New York Stats
Zeitung. Mr.. 0ttendorfer says Hewitt has
affronted the naturalized citizens Of New
York and they will not vote for him. On
the other hans, he believes that Grant can
not get the votes of the more respectable
part of the Democracy A fight between
these factions will in his opinion be disas-
trous to the national ticket, and therefore he
urges both Hewitt and Grant to withdraw.
Grant says he is willing if that will promote
harmony. but Hewitt says curtly that he
cannot and shall not. So the factions will
have to fight it out

The New York Post and the New Haven
News are both very much exercised because
some manufacturers have enclosed the pay
Of their help in envelopes on which is
printed Free trade means pauper wages"
which is designed, they say, to bulldoze
their employees into voting the Republican
ticket. But when certain paper mill, the
largest one in this country, posted on the
walls Of its establishment few days before
State election a notice designed and in
tended to bulldoze their employees into vot-
ing the Democratic ticket these journals
uttered not word of rebuke. 1t makes all
the difference in the world whose OK is gored.

The first days registration in New York
shows large increase over the registration
OF the corresponding day four years ago.
1t was 74,77S then, it is 9G,047 now, an in
crease OF 21,2S9 Beyond indicating that
there is great interest in the coming election
and that very large vote is going to be
thrown it shows very little. The five assem-
bly, districts which threw the biggest vote
for Cleveland four years ago show an aggre-
gate Increase of LIZA, while the four districts
that threw the biggest vote for Blaine, and
the ninth, which is Republican in sentiment,
show an aggregate increase of 1,77O. The in
crease is proportionally largest in the wards
that have the largest labor vote, which goes
to confirm what was pretty apparent before,
that the workingmen of the country are
taking stronger interest in the prevailing
contest than they have in any pending
contest for great many years.

How voluntary are the contributions gov
eminent clerks are making to the Democratic
campaign fund may be judged from the fol-
lowing extract from long letter sent to
them by Congressman Dick Townsend of
Ohio:
Our understanding is that man who is ap-
pointed TO federal office does not thereby lose
nlsind1vldual liberty or personal rights, and is
not 9 deprived from giving money earned by him
loI tue advancement of any cause. AS this is a

Such letter from Congressman To gov-
eminent employees is clearly violation of
the civil service act and renders its author
liable to prosecution and punishment. AS

The New York Mugwumps are in some
thing OF quandary. Mr.. Green, the custo-
dian Of the list Of Republicans who four
years ago pledged themselves to vote for Mr..
Cleveland, has been applied to for this list by
the Democratic National Committee on the
one hand who pledged themselves not to use
1t except to help the national ticket, and on
the other by the Democratic opposition to
Hill which wants to use it to compass his
defeat. Mr.. Green has sent statement of
the facts to the Mugwump national advisory
committee of 1884 and asked their counsel
Doubtless they will favor handing it over to
the national committee for we imagine that
with all their denunciation of Hill they
would rather see him succeed than see
Cleveland fail. They love free trade
much more than they hate the spoils system
or the rum traffic both OF which Hill is prac-
tlcally pledged to protect and support.

needlessly render extraditable a new

altogether one-sided in IFS operation. as
the allegations of such violations of law
always proceed from England against

from our country with respect to Persons
