Keep Cool.

To-day man cannot vote merely by ap-
preaching the polling place, and. after the
manner Of Mr.. TILDEN. removing his hat
and dropping his ballot into the box. He
must 70 into fenced-otf compartment, and
though he knows exactly what ballot he
wants to use, the officer who keeps the ballots
will give him all there are, and he must retire
into private compartment and there select
and paste according to his desire. Then he
comes out and holds the ballot he wishes to
cast in his right hand and the rejected
ballots in his left, and when they have been
taken from him the ceremony Is over and
he goes away.
This may seem like a formidable opera
tion compared to the old method Of voting
But all that is needed to vote successfully is
q cool head. Keep cool. Do not be worried
or ratified by the new complications. Don't
let any furry cause you to put the wrong
ballot in the right hand. There is plenty OF
time for deliberation. Probably no voter in
the whole list will be able to use up the
three minutes which the law says he should
take in preparing his ballots. Don't let that
worry you. Hold fast to your right ticket.
and put 1t in the box when the time comes
And let no man refrain from voting out OF
unwillingness to face the new requirements
or restrictions which the anti. Democratic
reformers have set about the ballot. Let
every Democrat vote, and vote tho entire
Democratic ticket.

mora than one seat In the United States
Senate at stake, although the Democrats
must make the best Of every opportunity in
the slow and laborious task Of recovering
the Senate from the Republicans. This city
will never have real self.government or an
unrestricted field for its growth and ad-
vancement and improvement 30 long as 1t
is hampcred and injured by the interference
OF Republican Legislature hostile to its
interests. New York city cannot be its
own master so long as 1t has to
submit to the dctation OF Re-
publican boss. 1t will be plundered
and abused until it frees itself from the
control OF its enemies. Nor is the hope OF
home rule for this CITY the largest hope which
depends upon the election OF Democratic
Legislature. The Republicans at Albany
deny justice to the Democratic party Of
New York by refusing to take an enumera-
ton OF the inhabitants OF the State, just as
the Republicans at Washington deny iustice
to New York city by refusing to take II cor
rect enumeration OF It's inhabitants. The mi
nority party will continue to refuse to give
Legislature to which their numbers entitle
them and to elect Senators in Congress.
The only way in which New York Democrats
can get Justice is by taking it in their own
hands. There will be no reapportionment
until there is a Democratic Legislature.
Finally, 1t is the duty Of every New York
Democrat to vote the straight Democratic
ticket to frustrate the hopes and smash the
schemes Of the Republicans, to give encour-
agement and confidence to Democrats every
where, and to retain secure vantage
ground for the contests OF 1891 and 1892.

mo Duty Of Every Democrat.

Iheee hes never been q year in which It
Was more imperstively and urgently the
duty Of every Democrat to vote the straight
Democratic ticket than it Is this year. The
best interests Of the city Of New York, OF
tho Democracy OF tho State OF New York, OF
tho whole country. and OF the national De-
mocracy arc inseparably connected and
united. The union and interaction Of local.
State. and national issues has never been
more intimate and vital.
1t Is the duty OF every Democrat In the
city TO voto the straight Democratic ticket.
Thereby he will show not merely his approval
OF an efficient and honest municipal admin
istration. but his detestation of Republican
attacks upon the greatness and prosperity
Of the city. He will give notice to tho Fed
eral Administration of his resentment OF its
seemingly settled purpose to refuse to COR

the Force bill. and to the outrages COM

There has been persistent and malignant
effort to hide the issues which will be settled
to-day, but they cannot be hidden. They are
partly local. partly national.
The city has a Democratic administration
which Is honest, capable, and satisfactory.
Shall It be retained?
The city has been Injured and its interests
have been sacrificed by the Republican party
under the leadership OF THOMAS G. PLATT
Is Mr.. PLATT g or the city's interest the
dearer to its citizens?
Tho Federal census OF the city Is a blunder
or a swinde. Shall the hlunderheads who
took and the pigheads who support that CEN
sus be sustained. or shall Governor HILL and
Mayor GRANT be sustained In demanding
fair count?
Finally. does New York city favor or op-
pose the Force bill nnd the rest OF the REED

The Italians in New Orleans must be COM
mended for the way in which they have do
meaned themselves during the trou blous times
that they have experienced since the Malta
murders of last month. According to de-
spatches recently printed by The Sun, they
have cooperatsd with the authorities Of tho
city In enforcing the measures that were
adopted for the preservation OF law and order:
they have striven to aid the police In CATCH
Ing the culprits who brought disgrace upon
the Italian name; they have taken means to
extirpate tho Malta who would introduce the
vendetta into this country; they have formed
an organization for the propagation Of Ameri-
can principles among Italian immigrants: and
they are now engaged In promoting tho ss-
tablishment OF schools and libraries for tho
service OF the Italian residents OF New Orleans
All this work Is OF the right kind, and 1t Is work
that is highly creditable to the italian element
In the Crescent City. 1t will be OF permanent
advantage to the swarms OF immigrants from
Italy who are now seeking new homes In al
