CHICAGO DEMOCRATS WHO THINK THEY CAN'T
WIN WITH CLEVELAND.
There is a strong anti-Clsvpland element
in Chicago which favors Governor Hill
for the presidential nomination. The
nucleus of the Hill contingent in this city is
considered to consist of F. H. Winston,
CHARLES Kern, Judge Parker and General
Wallace. Ex-senator Duoli,tle is also
counted in. Mr.. Winston was asked if he
knew anything about the Hill boom. ~

in the race and could carry New York.
Senator Doolittle said he would support the
nominee OF his party, but he thought that if
Hill carried New York he would carry
several Southern states aud could make a
very strong showing in the Convention,
Among those just named is the gentleman
who received from Roswell P. Flower the
letter to the effect that Hill is in the race
THIS gentleman said to-day:

Blaine and we put up Cleveland it means a

not carry New York, New jersey, Conneoti-
cut, Virginia, West Virginia and the Caro-
linas. He could not carry a single mining
state with his Free-trade message. Hill
could beat Blaine, aud any body else for that
matter. Cleveland has done nothing to

The press of this city and especially The

Court for the order Of Tuesday last, which
,lieves the reporters from very grave annoy
ances. The following was the order;
sit is ordered by the court that the accom-
modations III the court room set apart for
the reporters be not infringed upon in any
respect, and that the court clier and other
baihffs of the count be charged with the
duty of seeing that this order is carried out
and maintained"
The promiscuous manner in which the
crowds have dlsported themselves on the
chair-backs and tables set apart for the re-
pmt ters indicated that the press had no rights
which the average lounger was entitled to
respect.

i creased celebrity with which the presiden-
tial axe is falling with the advance of time
toward the date of the National Convention
arouses digust rather than enthusiasm in the
Albeit ranks. The Ex-Governor is any
thing bur political hypocite and he des-
pses that quality in anyone else. The evil
dent aim of the President to conciliate
"workers" with office in the last year of his
term is too palpable for federation in the
Abbett lines, and they are free in giving
vent to their thoughts.
1t is fact that New Jersey can not be
carried by the Democrats without the active
cooperation of the Albeit forces. This
means great deal. 1t implies those extra
ordinary exertons which bring Hudson
County up smiling with sufficient votes to

votes necessary from the Horseshoe" dis
.rict has been determined.
With lew exceptions, those who have
been favored with renumerative positions at
the hands of the Administration were un-
known in the politics of New Jersey, and in
quiry generally developed the fact that their
appointments while credited to this state,
were really due to efforts of friends and rel
atives influential because of their associa-
tions in other states. The ''hustlers''-
