THE CLOSE DISTRICTS.

II is a Democratic boast that the Repnb-
leans are going to lose the next Congress :
that the new protective tariff is going to be re-
buked by an adverse majority this fall. More
over, they are kind enough to explain where
they expect to make gains. The WITH Con-
necticut District recently mentioned, was car
ried by only 20 plurality three years ago. but
the Republican majority ought now to be
larger. 1t is openly boosted that the Demo
Gratis can carry the XVIII New-York which
was Republican by only "A in 1888, and the
XXXIld, where Republicans are said to be
sure t. lose their majority of 1903 at the last
election Forewalned is forearmed and If the
earnest and true Republicans in these districts
do not make good use of their opportunity, 1t
will be surprising. Another district claimed
is the XXVlth Pennsylvania, Republican BY
500 in 1898, which Democrats hope to carry
by Republican divisions. 1t would be strange
indeed if any set of Republicans from that part
of Pennsylvania, after the passage of the best
Tariff bill ever framed should suffer district
to be lost by any foolishness or mulishneSs on
their part The Democrats do not claim the
With New-Jersey wherein they are growing
sensible, but they fail to remember that their
"A, and might be overcome.
AT the South it is claimed that the Demo-
Gratis will gain the WITH Maryland, and the
With by the addition Of ward from Baltimore,
and district in Kentucky by a new gerry
mander which has maSSsd all the strong Re-
publican counties into one district" and one in
TelIaessee by another Democratic gerrymander,
n thousand more Democratic majority having
been put into the Chattanooga District. 1t is
possible that all these claims are we'll founded.
Republicans are aware that they cannot rely
upon having votes honestly cast or returned
in Southern States, and that gains for the
Democrats in That quarter as result OF new
dishonest appointments are possible. AS
three districts are claimed gain of three is
possible.
But it is not so probable that the last ap-
portionIient in Ohio, which even Democrats
themselves call infamous, will yield the ex-
pectcd gain of seven members. The prob
ability is strong that good people of both
parties in that State will have something to
say on the subject. II they return Mr. Nc
Kinley and majority of Republican men,
hers from q State which gives safe Repub-
lican majority on National issues it will not
be surprising, though creditable alike to right
thinking Democrats and to earnest Repsb-
lican workers. Claims are also made of Dem
ocratic gains in the Nth Michigan and the Mil
waukee District in Wisconsin. The Repub-
Iicans of those States know what their duty is.
But locking over the whole field it will appear

POLITICS IN MONROE COUNTY.

The campaign for Congressman and for AS
semblymen in Rochester and the country dis
tricts of Monroe County is advancing to the
satisfaction of the Republicans. Realizing
that they can return John Van Voorhis to
Washington and send three other stanch and
capable representatives of their party to AL
bany if they make resolute, unfaltering fight,
that is the sort of fight which they are max
ing. The result is that their prospects are
growing brighter every hour. From present
appearances it is safe to say that they will
sweep the county.
A letter from Monroe which we print this
morning presents the more interesting features
of the canvass. MIR. Van Voorhis, who is one
of the leading lawyers of Western New York,
tried and true Republican and capable and
experienced legislator, would be power in
the Lid Congress. Every citizen of Monroe
who desires so to vote as bost to promote the
welfare of that great and fourishing county
ought to support him. His Democratic OPP
ponent has once been beaten for Congress in
late years by Republican, and deserves to be
beaten again, not only on general party
grounds, but because of his peculiar views
touching the Emancipation Proclamation. A
man who in 1880 stigmatized that immortal
state paper as the greatest mistake of his
president Lncolns) Administration, could
doubtless be depended upon if elected to re-
sst the passage of the Federal Election bill
and generally to play into the hands of tho
Southern BourbOns. The Monroe Republicans
are to be congratulated upon the Assembly
nominations which they have associated with
the Congressional ticket. Ex-Mayor Parsons,
Frank NJ. Jones and William H. Denniston are
admirable candidates. If they are elected
and it looks as though they all would be-
the Monroe delegation in the coming Assembly
cannot fail to make its mark and to WELD great
influence.
But, although the outlook is most encourag-
ing, we earnestly advise our friends throughout
Monroe County to take nothing for granted, to
labor without oeasng until the polls close on
Election Day, to bear in mind that Governor
Hill, Edward Murphy, jr., and other leading
managing Democrats will leave no stone un-
turned to defeat Van VoOrhis, Parsons and the
rest. These Democratic bosses have much at

s.ahe. Unless they can hold their own and

sornra the election of o Democratic United
state, Senator. Two more unscrupulous poll
ticians than Hill and Murphy are not to be
found in the country, and they are as cunning
and .Ui industrious as they are unscrupulous. 1t
IL safe to affirm that Hills army Of appointees
and the corruption fund which the rum power
always places at his disposal during political
campaign will be freely drawn upon by the
Monroe Democracy in its efforts to WIN a VIC
w.. ~. fall. In the circumstances, the Re-
.mh,;ran. of the county must be vigilant at
all noints. Success is theirs If they persevere
until the end. But they cannot afford to relax
their efforts.

A dispatch which we print to-day frem
Canton, Ohio, gives good account OF the
prospects in Major McKinleys gerrymandered
district. The personal popularity OF the chair
man of the Ways and Means Committee Is 80
great, he is carrying on so energetic Q cam

resent the outrageous conduct OF the Legs

The immigration Bureau is we'll represented in
the local political struggle, no less than two of
its officials being candidates for seats in the Com
mon Council. William DAILY, Colonel Nugent's
Achates has been nominated in the XIVth Dis
trict and as he has been Endorsed by the County
Democrats his election is assured. Peter Tighe,
one of Mr. Murray's lieutenants in the Hid Dis

Mr. Scott made three more speeches last
evening, and scored every time. The more he
is heard the better he is liked and the more
thoroughly the people are convinced that no
mistake was made when he was chosen to lead
this winning fight against Tammany' In one
of his speeches he dwelt on the fact that the
distinction sought to be made between the
Now Tammany' and the "Old Tammany"
was distinction without difference. The
truth is, Tammany is the same in principle,
in practice and in organization now as always.
Reform in such an institution is impossible.
The only way to deal with it is to destroy 1t
root and branch.
Inspector Byrnes gives most of the Italians
in this city an excellent character as regards
inoffensiyeness and obedience to the laws.
Only one murder, SO far as is known, has ever
been committed here by the Malta. In that
case tho murderer was found out, but he fed
and is believed to be in Italy. No alarm, con-
sequently, is felt by the police officials here on
account of tho recent occurrences in New
Orleans. OF course the duty OF the authorities
wherever this society OF assassins Is known to
exist is perfectly plain. 1t what has taken
place in New Orleans leads to Its extinction,
the gln to the cause of law and order will be
great.
The first impression produced by the news
that Governor Hill had selected Patrick j.
SoulIy to till the vacancy caused by County
Clerk Reiliy's death was one of profound sur
prise Nine persons out of ten in New-YOrk
doubtless scratched their heads, and then asked,
who's Soully?" When they found some one
to answer the question they learned, without
any surprise whatever, that no is member OF
the Tammany General Committee Scully, 1t
appears, has been Deputy County Clerk. and
has had charge of the Office since his chiefs
death. Fortunately, he will serve only until
January 1, when the office of County Clerk
will be filed by the excellent candidate on the
Anti Tammsny ticket, Mr.. William II. Bellsmy.
