We clip the following noble ex-
cerpt from the thrilling speech de-
livered at Buffalo n. Y, on Satur-
day last by Senator David B. Hill.
Every Democrat in the Fifth Dis
trict shonld read and ponder:
Among honorable men the level
discharge of political duty outweighs
all minor considerations, and in this
crisis of our country's history, and
in this great emergency in our party
affairs individual disappointments or
even alleged personal injustice
should be s1bordinated in the faith
ful performance of political obliga-
tons, not as mere matter of expe-
.diency, but from high and stern
sense of duty. Permit me to say
that we have all of us now mission
to fulfill. Petty jealousies must be
dismissed, regular organizations
must be respected, party discipline
must be enforced, discussions must
be healed and apathy must give way
to enthusiasm, in order that the
grand old party to which we are
proud to belong may secure the
triumph of right principles and work
out the noble destiny which ought
surely to await it.

The Third party men have put up

the triangular fight between Gunby,
Boatner and himself. Baton Rouge
Advocate.
Mr.. Boatner will have but little
truble in Webbing up the Thirdite
and shooting the Gunby off at a
tangent.
= Major Andrew Hero, who is con-
Quoting the Morris Marks campaign
IN the second district in the interest
of the Leonard faction, Hero having
an intimate knowledge of War
moths election proclivities, says:
"Wbat we want particularly, "
said the Major to States reporter
this morning, sis fair count. We
will get the votes in the box but we
want them to come out as they go
in. That is the only basis upon
which we can hope to win in this

fully satisfied there will be no fight

management of the local leaders. "A
number OF Mr.. Clevcland's friends say
that he has been induced by the Demo-

thirty or more speeches during the
month of October, and that he will
visit, after speaking at Tammany's big
celebration, the States of Illinois. Wis
consin and Michigan, aud may also
speak il Alabama, Georgia and Ten

is that the Democratic party is in bet
ter shape to score victory in New

general satisfaction that the Republi-
cans can no longer base their hopes on
Democratic issensions.-States.

The New Orleans Truth truly

The New Orleans Truth truly
says:
While Judge Gunby and his
managers were filibustering with the
third partyites, Mr.. Boatner's
friends captured the executive COM
mittec of the district and had the APP
portionment fixed to suit themselves.
The friends of Judge Gunby saw
their defeat and sought to use the
State Central Committee to offset
the move of the opposition. The
State Central Committee was made
UP to allow of the anti lotteryites
having an easy majority. Judge
Gunby and his friends counted upon
this majority to stand by him and
fix the apportionment SO that he
would have the advantage.
But alas; the wriggling Gunby,
he counted the poultry before they
were Matched.
