tne people agitated over the issues OF
the present campaign" said Mr.. G..
Duff Nichols to a reporter in New York
on Monday. He is one of the General
Committee of the National Association
Of Democratic Clubs in Connecticut.
Mr. Nichols brings home the moss fiat
tering aud encouraging reports from
these places, and feels assured tha. a
heavy and successful Democratic vote
will be polled there. Concerning the
nomination OF Governor David B. Hill
for reelection he said:
The unanimous nomination of Mr..
Hill has solidihei the party and the
Democracy of New York State will Ger
tGinly give him safe majority. This
majority will astonish even Hill himself.
No matter wtere / have stopped in this
State / have found that every prominent
hotelkeeper will cast his vote for Hill.
The general feeling in the State is that
he is wise and safe man. While Hills
majority may be greater than Cleve-
lands in this State, ye. it is safe to
count on 20, 600 majority for the nation
al ticket.
In Ohio everything is very quiet,
and there is little or no talk ot politics.
The Democrats of that State are, how
ever, very busy sending out campaign
literature to every nook and corner of
it. OF course, while they do not expect
to carry the State, yet they have every
reason for belief that they will greatly
ha
of the Michig in farmers who are Re-
publicans are in favor OF tariff REVISION,
and will undoubtedly cast thsII votes
for Cleveland.
From every source. no matter how
partisan, all unite in giving Cleveland
great credit for having courage in his
convictions, and there are but few Re-
publicans in that State but that acknow-
ledge that his tariff message and retail
atOrY message were the results of gIeat
courage and independence of character.
Michigan is good fighting ground, and
the chances are strongly in favor Of
! Cleveland. l would not be surprised If
thas State went Democratic. as the
| tariff is creating a great deal of inquiry,
and Information is sought from every
source.
The people OF Wisconsin are also
| alive on the tariff question, and from
/ every source accessiOns to the Demo
cratic ranks are reported. These reports
are greater than even the most sanguine
/ expected or hoped for. and l would not
! he usprised if that State would give
| Cleveland 10000 majority.
The nomination of Governor Palmer
FOR reelection to gubernatoriaI honors
| in Illinois was favorably received, and l
believe that, while the national ticket
may hOJ meet with success. Governor
| Palmer will receive large Democratic
/ majority.
| Indiana is fighting State. and there
| the battle RACES fieIcely. Political meet
| ings are being held at all hours OF the
I day by both parties. Some speakers
make as many as three addresses in one
day in different parts of the State. The
| manufacturers along the natural gas
belt, ranging from Indianapolis to the
lakes, are endeavoring to in:imidate
their employees by threatening a reduc-
tion of wages if Cleveland is elected.
| Whether this will be successful or not.
| remains TO be seen. The Democrats are
fully informed or the subject. and are
using every fair means to counteract it.
The fight there is very close. with the
chances in tavor of Cleveland.
pennsylvania Democrats are fight
ing as fieTcely for the election of Cleve-
land as il the entire success de-
pended on them, and while they. o.
| course, cannot expect n carry the State
/ believe that in 1892 Pennsylvania viii
be a Democratic State. 1 have spOksI
with a number of Republicans in Pitts
burg ard they all admit that the tariff
needs revision. their only objection q
the Mills bill being that it emarate
from Southern source.
They have not forgotten that thi
war is over and that the issues of tha
conflict ought To be forgotten.
"A visit TO the city OF PIttsburg will
satisfy any unprejudiced man of the re.
suit of Republican rule. The streets
which are only forty feet wide at thi
utmost, are beng entirely covered will
cable roads. much to the disgust o.
draymen, as we'll as persons who dTiv,
in carriages. They find il impossible Il
traverse streets which are covered Will
these rails. Fifth avenue, the mos
prominent street in the city, is entirell
ruined. All accuse Chris. Magee tn,
Republican boss, of being the prim
mover Of this example of corporation
greed.
LAS TO my own State, Connecticut
have only the most rOse-colored re
port TO make. Republican manutactur
ers and New York business men VIII
reside in Connecticut have announced
themselves il favor of tariff reform"
