The north and northern light 10 q fine
specimen Of Mr.. FAssETr's schoolboy rhet-
oric. but childlshness will not excuse his
attack upon the chief city Of the State. A
candidate for Governor disqualifes and
dishonors himself when he appeals to one
class or interest, strives to set tho country
against the city. and shows that no has not
tho comprehensive patriotism and the
catholic mind TINT are necessary to the
man who socks to he Governor Of tho
State and not OF q part OF II. The only real
complaint that Mr.. FAssETr has against
tho city Ia that 1t gives Democratic ma
3orities. Not content with opposing the
interests OF Now York in every possible
way In the Senate ut Albany. he opens his
mouth TO Insult tho metropolis in st. Law

In tho hands OF THOMAS c. fLATT the Re-
publican party is o menace to the prosper
lty OF the city. He is tho enemy and his
alias. FAssETr. Is the enemy Of the progress
and Development OF the city. They cannot
forgive 1t for not being Republican. Every
citizen OF this town who Is eager for its
growth should vote against Plat and
PLArr's puppct. Every citizen OF this town
who has u particle Of civic pride and patriot
lam should vote aCplpst the man who pub-
nciy, insults it.
Mr.. FAssErT will regret that he ever talked
about the darkness Of Manhattan Island.

Do not these Republican newspapers know
that this Is the Ne,c York IImes's usual
preliminary to enthusiastic support and

that It is unable to discover in any public
man the traits Of broad statesmanship and
Lofty integrity until after It has violently
denounced him as o fool and q swindler.

IN 1891. Nobody who understands the mind

The comments upon CLEVELAND. on the

with which Brother FLOWER has been
favored. And yet it was only last Wednes-

seven years to the very period referred to In
