Senator Stanford of California, arrived in NewYork
yesterday the steamship City Of New York. He
and his wife, who accompanied him on his trip abroad,
are at the Windsor Hotel, where they will remain
for few days. Senator Stanford is In splendid
physical condition and only needs to meet him to
recognize the folly Of Democratic statements in regard
to his irreparably weakened health He said to a
Tribune reporter:
"I have come home to vote and to work for Harri-
and Morton. l have been In Europe about four
months. undertook the journey by the advice Of
my physician, DR.. Loomis. / somewhat troubled
with vertigo, but adopted dieting and with this and
change OF scene and air, in excellent health
In Europe moved about from place to place, spend
ing some time In Kissingen some time in Paris, and
some time in various parts of England. i had many
opportunities Of observing carefully the people Of
England, and especially the working people
They obliged to live frugally and
abstemiousy. Their provisions are on the whole
dearer than those Of working people here, and their
wages much less. They do not know the COM
forts that people here have. The English are
paying unusual attention TO our Presidential campaign
this year, and every Engllshman is for Cleveland
He is the unanimous choice of the English for Presi
dent of the United States. And why' Because Of
his frec-trade notions of course. England Is great
producing country. Her power of production per
capita wonderful compared with any other naon
and with their system of free trade their labor is
cheaper than ours.
Free trade for the United States would make this
country a great English market. / shall do what
to prevent any such condition Of affairs from
coming to pass. The time is short between now and
election day, but mean TO do work in my State
before the ballots cast l quite able for that
work. and rejoiced to hear that the prospects of
the election Of the Republican candidates are good
No matter what Is said 10 the contrary you may de-
pend upon 1t. that the majority Of the Pacific Coast
voters are for Harrison and Morton. The Prohibition
movement and this newfangled American move
ment may cause few defections, but not enough TO
be of any consequence to u.s.
