THE COMING BIRD.

Let us talk about Turkey. Not Turkey in Eu-
rope, nor yet Turkey in Asia But turkey in
America-the esteemed bird that goes so well with
cranberry sauce Room for the Turkey The
Eagle has had his full fling this year. lie has
ruled the roost ever since early summer, when the
Presidential conventions were held. He has been
the patron bird of all parties, and has presided
over innumerable torchlight professions and elo-
ouent Publications Now that election is over let
the Eagle fold up his wings like the Arab and
gracefully give way to the Turkey. Three weeks
from Yesterday will be Thanksgiving President
Cleveland has issued his proclamation and so has
Governor Hill Thanksgiving, by the common
consent of the American people and in conformity
with the hallowed usage of the fathers, marks the
annual apotheosis of the Turkey
The founders of our Government were wise in
so arranging the Nations calendar that as the
Eagle disappears from public view with the close
NJ the fall campaigns the Turkey proudly struts to
the fore. For even as the Eagle stands for the
storm and stress of politics. the Turkey stands
for the refreshing calm that succeeds quadren-
NAL election The Turkey holds himself aloof
from political parties, cares nothing for public
life, which is the Eagles native air, his highest
ambition being to spend himself and be spent in
the domestic circle 1t is the Eagles proud boast
as he participates in an exciting canvass that he
is tough Not so the Turkey. He endeavors so
70 live that he may come upon the Thanksgiving
dnner-table tender as the dream of fairy.
Ouench the torch, take off the cape, put aside
the rest of the regaa of the clubs Of SS, whether
Harrison clubs or Cleveland clubs, and fix your
thoughts on the agreeable non-partisan things
sym bOlzed by the Turkey, who now in training
for the exercises of the last Thursday of this
month. Among the things in question are home,
parents, wives, children, sweethearts, brothers,
sisters, a common country with a manifest destiny
The Eagle has screamed to his hearts content
Now let the Turkey have chance.

This is a good time for the substantial citi-
zcns of New-York to consider whether the metropo-
lis gains anything by persistently misunderstand-
ing and antagonizing the country. They can now
see that their political policy and their personal
preferences are decidedly against those of the
grcat majority in the States from which New
York derives its chief business and Importance.
The Democratic and so-callcd Independent press
Of this city is as denscly ignorant of the temper
and tendency OF the best part of the United
States as if it were published on the Island OF
jamaica instead of the Island of Manhattan.
Is il for the good of the metropolis that under the
leadership Of such press so large proportion of
our best people should set themselves directly
against the major and better part of the country
It's very like the crack of Doom when Mr..
Bayard loses his hold on his peterborough,

Russia. it appears, has threatened to occupy
Bulgaria with an armed force, If Austria pushes
her way into Seryia. This is good opening for

The Republican victory in Delaware means
not only Republican to succeed Senator

The death of George II. Forster two days
after he was reelected president of the Board
of Aldermen casts a shadow over the Tammany
victory. Mr.. Forster was one of the better type
of Tammany politicians. He had had the adj
vantage of long association with Republicans,
having represented that party in both branches
Of the Legislature. When past his prime he
Joined Tammany Hal ard became an active
figure in its councils His death raises an in
teresting question as to the election Of his sue
cessor and seemingly dscloses weak point in
the law. There is no provision for general
election for filing The vacancy, and it is doubt
full whether the vice-prcsident Of the Board
shall assume the duties Of president or whether
the Board has the power TO elect any citizen Of
New-York to the position Either method
would be repugnant to the recent legislation

Yes, Mr.. Thurman, you were right when you
said in 1872 that when a President had chance
for a second term he would I" use the immense
patronage of the Government to procure his re-

will have plenty of leisure now to reflect that
when a President makes use of these things he
isn't always sure of succeeding.

Brooklyn Republicans did so well by the
Presidential ticket that they deserved success
with their local candidates. The latest figures
furnish ground for the hope that the Demo
cratic party did not make the clean sweep that
has been supposed. Captain Kaiser, the Re-
publican candidate for County Clerk, appears
to have a majority OF over 800 His claim is, OF
course contested, and only the official count
will determine the result Captain Kaiser had
many marked elements of strength, and his
candidacy was undoubtedly greatly helpful to
the National ticket. 1t is to be hoped that his
election will be assured.

The Democratic National Committee have at
last had the fact of their defeat pounded into
their heads and yesterday they acknowledged
that their "claim' that New-York had gone
Democratic by 10000 to $4,000 was without
justification. It's better late than never, but
they could easily have got correct information
by sending a messenger to Printing House
Square on Tuesday night. Their beated con-
cesson merely makes their original claim the
more ridiculous.

A Colorado Crook Captured by Capt.

Capt. E. S. Smith as Deputy Sheriff
made a very clever and withal a quite i'm
portant capture about 5 O'Clock yesterday
morning.
Sunday evening a descriptive postal
card from Fort Collins advised the Lara
mic county officials in formal terms to be
on the lookout for VIM. Gossard, a sneak
thief supposed to have fled from the town
by the Poudre to the Magic City. The
missIve stated that Gossard, who had
stolen between $50 and $75, was accom-
panied by a female. A word picture Of
the latter was the only useful pointer
given.
Capt. Smith was detailed to hunt
out the pair and at once com
menced work on the case. He soon
struck a trail and following it took
Gossard and the woman into
custody oD Sixteenth street at the time
indicated. Smith Swallowed the couple
several hours to satisfy himself of Cos
sard's identity, as the mailed description
varied greatly with the mans appearance
upon his advent here. Gossard had doubt
less disguised himself. The m was
released, but her escort jailed. He will
be taken back to Fort Collins by Deputy
Schultz, who arrived from that place last
evening.
Capt, Smith is entitled to due credit
for his really excellent piece of detective
work.

Two Counties Where Republicans Are
Also for Perry Organ.

who has passed the greater portion OF the
last three years in Wyoming, principally
in johnson county, is a guest at the Ar
lington for a day or so. being en- route
east after a visit to his brothers ranch in
the Big Horn basin.
a LEADER representative who called
on Mr.. Hedges last evening, CLEANED
some valuable information about fruitful
johnson county, and was given a few
very encouraging political pointers.
EVERY ae-Hp-there-is fer PeFFy-0F-
gan" said Mr.. Hedges. "One would
think that he had no opponent. From
the Basin to Buffalo is seventy-two miles,
and every ranchman on the road talked
enthusiastically for the Democratic nom
inee, 10 Buffalo it was the same
and Douglas takes up the cry right will
lingly. Those people feel as though one
of their number had been named for the
place and they are proud TO do honor to
Perry Organ. In him they recognize a
true friend and a man of integrity and
c~apability.
THE talk for Mr.. Organ isn't confined
to the Democratic ranks, either. Hun
dreds of Republicans will support him,
doing all possible to aid his canvass.
IF johnson and Converse counties
were allowed to settle the delegate ques-
ton Mr.. Organ would be sent to Wash
ington by an almost unanimous vote"

CAME TO GRIEF.
A RawIins Man who Wanted His Name
I'm the Paper,

Have you any objections to my regis
tering here?" inquired a genteel looking
little follow of the chief clerk at the Inter
Ocean yesterday.
Just place your autograph on n of
those lines" responded Louis Van Els
beck, showing the big book towards the
stranger.
II may not want anything here" con-
tinued the little man, but | want to get
my name in The LEADER"
His signature read: Nv. G. Shields,
telegraph operator at Rawiins.- He drank
a cocktail at 9 o'clock and is a good boy"
You're a TOOL calmly remarked Louis
as he glanced at the register.
IAN right" SAID Shields, Have a
cigar"
While the clerk eliminated the super
fous autograph Shields HE'D himself to a
livery stable and chartered a saddle pony.
The straight viii ky and mixed drinks
Shields had absorbed we're nine-tenths
hilarious and the rider communicated the
jolly, darn. the'consequences spirit to his
mount. The latter seemed to think it
was once more in pursuit of the frolic
some steer or elusive maverick. AT any
rate the animal was full of life and re-
sponded to the whip nobly, occasionally
striking a gait that would give it a place
in the cup race.
The speed trial was cut Short by the
interference of Officer Sullivan. who cap.
tured him after a hot chase and landed
him in jail.
The operator will be arraigned before a
police justice this morning and doubtless
fined.
