A FEW UORDS TO A FEW MEN.


In view of their convention tonight few
suggestions may properly and hopefully be
made to Republicans who have not yet joined
the union against Tsmmany. Against their
motives and sincerity we have nothing what
ever to say. They include individuals OF strong
character and convictions, upon whose judy
ment, wise counsels and loyalty the party has
often relied. They are not less anxious than
Others, perhaps, to see the city government
taken out of the hands of Tammany and ad-
ministered on business principles for the benefit
and in the name of the citizens. But yet their
attitude compels us to believe that they do not
desire to see that contamination realized this
year. They apparently prefer that the exist
ing system shall have another lease of life, in
the hope that at some indefinite time in the
future it may be exterminated under cOndi-
tons more satisfactory to themselves and more
advantageous to their party. We think that
their practice and their theory are both wrong
A forlorn hope is sometimes glorious thing,
but there is neither merit nor consolation in o
fOrlOrn despair The only expectation which
our straightout' friends can possibly enter
tain, so far as their independent action in this
campaign is concerned, is that they may be
able to give some Tammany candidates small
plurality of votes. For this they not only set
themselves against the overwhelming senti-
ment of their associates in the party and against
its delegated authority regularly declared, but
also do as much as they can to discredit it in
the opinion of that part of the community
from which it hopes to make recruits. They
are not even sustained and encouraged by the
slightest increase in their number. On the
contrary, their little nucleus of opposition is
being rapidly dissipated. General Butterfield,
for whom their nomination has been waiting
all the week, has cautiously declared his will
ingness to accept the sacrifice If six friends
and advisers whom he names declare their con-
viction that is his dirty to do so. Three OF
these, Messrs. Root, Strong and Bliss, have al
ready announced their opposition to straight
ticket at this stage of the campaign; and we
assume, therefore, that If third nomination
for Mayor is to be made, not General Butter
field, but somebody else must be the nominee
What possible satisfaction can any honest
man connected with this feeble opposition to
union ticket derive from prolongng the pro-
test? If any suspicion has at any time existed
that the cause of the people against Tammany
concealed a snare was being manipulated for
unworthy purposes, or lacked honest determine
ton, nobody now harbors such thought. 1t
is genuine, earnest, inspiring uprising OF
good men of all parties and no party against
corrupt and corrupting faction and profit
gate and fraudulent system. No greater Op-
portunty and no more irnperiOus obligation
were ever presented to the people of Newly ork
for their acceptance or rejection.

pDSH THINGS IN THIS STATE.

The political campaign is rapidly drawing
10 it's close. Two weeks from next Tuesday
will be Election Day. Let the Republicans in
every district of the State labor with increased
carnestness during the next fortnight for the
success of the Congressional and Assembly
tickets The outlook is encouraging. There
is no reason In the world why they should not
at least hold their own, both at Washington
and Albany, and 1t is only necessary that they
should do that to secure gratifying victory.
There are nineteen Republicans in the New.
York delegation of the List Congress; there
must not be fewer than nineteen in the New
York delegation Of the Lid Congress. There
were seventy two Republicans in the Assembly
Of 1890 there must not be fewer than seventy.
two Republicans In the Assembly OF 1891.
We say this because we believe that our
friends Throughout the State realize that they
have got the votes necessary to retain all the
Congressional and Assembly districts which are
now Republican. Why should they not have
the votes? The Republican majority in Con-
gress has pursued q course which has commend
ed itself to the people. II has proved indus
trious, efficient, Trustworthy. lts record st-

The people are asked to vote down the new
tariff before they have had time to test It's
workings or to sea its benefits realized. They
are told by Free Traders that all necessaries OF
life have been enhanced in cost, though in fact
not b single such article has an increased duty
but on very many duties have been reduced.
II faisehood can usurp the place OF truth, voters
may be persuaded that every time an extor-
tionate trader marks mp the price OF anything
it ia because OF the tariff. The hope Is that
voters may thus be led to pronounce against a
wise, far-sighted and beneficent measure be-
fore they have chance to see its results. But
Connecticut voters have not often been deluded
in that fashion, and have shown their earnest
appreciation of the protective policy repeatedly
Mary Democrats in that State believe in FRO
lection, and will not hesitate to defend their
convictions again, when assaied as they were
by the Mills bill, and are now by those who
arc moving the entire party into the Free-TTade
channel. But whether they do their duty or
not, the people of Western Connecticut ought
to honor the fidelity of Mr.. Miles by hand

SOCIETT IN THOMPSONVILLE.

There Is no mistake more commonly made than
that Of confounding effects that are purely natural
with those brought about by custom. Thus it is
asserted that man clothes himself instiSctively,
