The New York Thug,

There is strong suggestion in the

cratic nomination for president always

pledge the state, may not be in

1id4te because of her inability to
1ellver to him the state at the cleo
4ion. We do not think that there are
many people who do not think that
0overnor Hill sacrificed the electoral
vote Of the state fox Cleveland to his
purpose to secure His own election for
governor, II not to further malevolent
9ispositi0n to back Cleveland off the
eourse for the future.

vote Of the state to another New York
candidate, whom the thugs may desire to

whether it will do to give il again a

a marked effect on their material
development. The Chinese In the neal

institutions that now give Western
nations supremacy. Pacific mail steam
