New YORK. October Sth. 1888. At last
| the two big factions that make up the city
| Democracy have agreed to disagree Inc
die was cast by Tammany Hall which put
! in the field a full fledged wigwam ticket.
| It is headed by Sheriff Grant, who, by the
way. was the unsuccessful champion OF
| Tammany in the nay,raty fight OF four
wears ago. The CouH'y Democracy fol-
| lowed suit promptly, placing Mayor Hewitt
! in IT nomination
elthough such action had been ant!cl-
pated fer some time, strenuous elfo1t5 were
| made AT the last moment to fuse the war
ring factions Several confidential ad-
yisers from Washington, personal and
political friends of the Pr' si'ient, includ-
| ing Senator German, Congress man Scott
| and Secretary Whitney. were cioseted all
| dav and all night with the chiefs or the
| beIigerent forces. 1t looked for while
as though the redOubtable Secretary OF the
Navy would himself be selected as the
head of Union ticket. But 1t all came
to paueht, and Tammany fastened to
| throw down the gauntlet and flourish the
tomahawk as she has so often done in the
past.
The impression among Democrats here
| that this local duel will add votes to the
too, is based upon history. The only time
A Democrat has succeeded in getting
enough votes in New York City to land
him in the White House was under pre-
cisely similar conditions. On the other
hand when all factions were Joined elSht
wears ago, Hancock was mercieSsly knitted.
This view is also accepted toy the National
Committeeman, and the only fear they
have is that bad effect may be produced
on outside States where these conditions
are not so we'll understood. Ali lndica-
tit Ms favor the triumph OF Mayor Hewitt,
who has been endorsed by a large body Of
independents usually found IN the Repub-
lican column Whether there will be a
regular Republican Richmond in the field
has not been determined. The party
leaders seem very much divided Oh this
point, and there is no telling what the out
come will be.
Four wears ago Cleyeland's majority in
this city was 43, 900. Gov. Hill did good
deal better two years later. This Year the
Democratic managers place the majority
for the National ticket at at least 80 900,
and claim with reason a gain of six TO
seven thousand in Brooklyn and Kings
county There is not the slightest cause
for alarm about New York State.
The news from Connecticut and New
Jersey is also very favorable Particular
attention is being given by the party man
ayers to the little Nutmeg State, which is
always more or less eccentric at election
times. \ recent private poll gives tha
Democrats 5000 plurality about much
as any one ever gets in that State. D. m
ocratIc gains in the recent town elections
amply Justify this claim.

the yenal vote are the two uncertain po-
litical factors in New York City He tells
me that Henry George aud his followers
are working like beavers for Cleveland
and that a great many Labor olgauIza
tons will Vote solidly for the Democratic
ticket. Nj Pages forecast of d few days
ago, is substantiated by the following
paragraph which clip from Il copy of the
Standard, Henry Georges paper which
nave Just received:
The number of men who will vote be-
cause Of principle and irrespective of pre-
vious party affiliations Will be greater this
year than has been the case for genera
ton. The disntegration OF parties. to
which Mr.. Cleveland gave so powerful an
impulse when he wrote his tariff message,
is going on faster and faster AS the con
test becomes warm. He will unQuestion
ably lose many votes that he received in
1884, But his gain will be more than his
loss

Very clever fellow indeed, He is a
shrewd demagogue, and worse than the
Radical to whom you would not speak.
He knows better than to seek to ruin the
State.
The ''clever" Radical Office holder or
seeker is the Radical "for revenue onlv."
He is the man who has sold himself for
enough to eat. AS for the CHRONICLE We
have respect for the Radical who is true
to his convictions and who year in and
year out votes his convictions and man
fully stands up for his party. The ''clever
for revenue" Radical, who is milking the

much less upon the suffrage of the people.
