WASHINGTON. Oct. 20-Lieut. York Noel was
recalled as witness In the Despatch Court OF
Inquiry to-day. He was again questioned
concerning his action In changing the course
OF tho ship without notifying the commander
Of the vessel when he saw what he supposed
was the Winter Quarter shoal lightship. He
said that up to the time the light was sighted
no thought the vessel was in the right posi-
ton. When he saw the light the ships course
was changodto one TINT would carry her safely

The result OF Mr.. FAssErr's personal can
vass Of more than one hundred speeches Is
that the people OF this State know him Just
about one hundred times better than they
knew him when he began.
The NJ. FAssETT who stood up to accept
the Republican nomination for Governor
seven weeks ago was q figure OF somewhat
indefinite outlines. He was generally rec
ognized as the beneficiary and agent Of
PLAT, and the representative OF Plattism In
this contest. but OF his personal quality the
public had very dim notions. He might be
man OF brains. or no might be silly. He
might DO Intellectually hUnest and morally
respectable. or the reverse.
Tho Mr.. FAssErT who stands up to mako
his one hundred and twentieth or one hun
dretl aud thirtieth appeal for tho votes OF
his fellow citizens is no shadowy parsonage.
with unknown potentisllties Of good or evil.
Speech by speech. and sentence by sentence.
he has sketched in the details Of his own
character New York knows him thoroughly
now. Mi. FAssETT has given the people OF
tho State satisfactory opportunity to take
his exact measure.
The measure Of Mr.. FAssETT that has
been taken. thanks to his incomprehensible
willingness to exhibit himself on the stump
more than one hundred times during the
campaign. is the measure OF vain and fool
ISL young man, irresponsible as to his mem
tai processes. and apparently without the
least sense OF shame when detected in false
hood and publicly exposed.
The Republicans know the truth about
Mr.. FAssETT now Ms we'll as the Democrats.
We doubt that there are many intelligent
and candid members Of Mr.. FAssErr's own
party who would affirm on honor that their
respect for tho candidate as an individual
has steadily increased during his seven
weeks of speechmakiDg. Only those Repub-
licans will vote for Mr.. FAssETT next Tues
day who are willing for partisan reasons to
intiict upon the Empire State as Governor
person as shallow and slippery as young
Mr.. FAssETr has shown himself to be.

The Unique Webster.

One Of tho two Democratic candidates
running for the Assembly in the Harlem
district. the Twcnty-third. is GEORGE P.
WEBSTER. He served in the last Lesisla-
turc. In this canvass he enjoys unique dis
tinctiop. He is tho only candidate. Demo-
crut or Republican, yet discovered by The
Sun who defends the press-gag provision Of
tho Electrical Execution Law.
WEBSTER regards that unconstitutional
and outrageous statute as a good law. and
ono which ought to be maintained.
We commend the case Of GEORGE P. WEB
sI'ER to the friends Of The Sun in Harlem.
and to the friends Of all Of our esteemed con-
Le:aporaries circulating In that part Of the
city. We invite attention to him as the
sole advocate Of a measure aimed by cranks
Il, tho freedom OF the press.
It has surprised lis greatly to learn TINT
tho only candidate for the Legislature up
holding the GERRY press gag against q
practically unanimous public sentiment
shuuld call himself Democrat. Itappears.
however. that WEBSTER Is Democrat for
revenue, or rather for Office. Not long ago.
as we are informed. this same WEBSTER was
seeking Office as Il Republican.
Democrats in the Twenty-third Assembly
district should vote for Mr.. BENJAMIN
FRANKLIN. He Is gentleman OF ability
and good character. and. unlike WEBSTER.
he is Democrat enough to know that the
liberty Of the press Is the corner stone Of
free institutions.

be elected to stay at home.

II come to YOU" said DR.. WARNER
MILLER OF Herkimer. ut the Republican
mass meeting on Tuesday night. speaking.
not as citizen OF New York. but come to
you tonight speaking to you rather rs a
representative OF tho great Republican
counties OF the interior" DR.. MILLER then
proceeded with cheerful assurance to
denounce the Government Of the city Of
which he Is not citizen. With the excep-
ton Of the Hon. JOEL B. ERHARDT. who had
to take himself out OF the Custom House
because he wouldn't be q FAssETr. not one
OF the speakers at this Republican meeting
was a citizen Of this town. The Hon. FRANK
HIscocK OF Syracuse and tho Hon. SERENo
E. PAYNE Of Auburn joined DIR. MILLER in
abusing the city Government.
Did it ever occur to DR.. MILLER. Mr.. HIS
COCK. Mr.. PAYNE. and the other spokesman
OF the rural Republicans that the municipal
administration Of this town most concerns
tho people OF this town? Last November
the people passed by a great majority a
vote OF confidence in Tammany Hall. They
were suited and they are suited with the
city Government. As long as they are
suited what business is it ofithe Republic
cans OF Onondaga and Cayuga?
We wonder how many votes Democrats
from this city would gain by going into the
country towns and denounclng the town
Governments. Would they not he regarded
rs impertinent interlopers? Would not the
rural Republicans tell them to go back to
New York and mind their own business?
The Republicans seem to think that they
will increase the Republican vote in this
city by setting all the Republican non-resi-
dent orators from Mr.. FAssErT OF Elmira.

will find that New York city has pride
enough to resent these continued SANDERS
and self-respect enough to seize the oppor-
tunity which will come next Tuesday Of

Tho Matter Decided.

The friends Of DR.. KELLEY have given
various excuses and apologies for his
course in keeping secret the formula used
in his cure for drunkenness. On Wednes-
day he returned from abroad to speak for
himself. and already he has spoken very
emphatically. He declares that he will not
disclose tho secret. and for two reasons
first. because he has sold the right to use
the remedy In several States" and. second
ly. because "it would be inexpedient to put
the secret Of the formula IN the hands Of
charlatans. inexperienced doctors. and
ignorant drug clerks"
Onlythe first reason amounts to anything,
and it settles the question. II he has sold
the secret for use In certain districts. as an
inventor sells tho use OF patent rights. OF
course he cannot violate the contract by
making public the formula Of his proprie-
tary medicine. Heis bound to protect the
purchasers in their monopoly by keep
ing the secret; and he would have
been wiser II he had contented himself
with that sufficient explanation. 1t was
foolish for him to put forward the excuse
that he cannot trust the employment and
preparation OF the remedy to physicians
and apothecaries. for 1t Is tho universal
rule. requirement. and practice Of the
medical profession to give publicity to
every discovery In the healing art without
fear OF the consequences. It may be abused
by qaacks. but tho injury they can do Is

and to mankind II it is offered to the whole
medical world.
Undoubtedly DR.. KELLEY had as much
right to keep his remedy proprietary
medicine as an inventor has to patent a
machine. or an author to copyright book.

he chose. and his position would be deiensi-
