Special Correspondence Globe Democrat
New YORK, Oct 29.-Among the
prominent callers at republican head
quarters was Judge John NJ. Thurston,
of Nebraska Regarding the situation
in the western states he said: II have
been speaking chiefly in my own state,
but also in Kansas, Wyoming, South
Dakota, Wisconsin and Illinois, and
feel confident that with the exception
of Nevada every state west of the Mis-
sissippi is republican. The situation
two months ago was entirely different.
All along the line discontented third
partyites are coming back in large
numbers. This is particularly true
with regard to the national ticket AL
liancemen will be found in line on the
national ticket, though they may sup
port their own state ticket. They are
tired of being made cat's-paws of by
the democracy, and since the outrageous
treatment received by Gen. Weaver in
Georgia became public the feeling is
stronger than ever. The plan of the
democrats to withdraw their electoral
tickets in the west comes too late to
endanger the chances of republican
success"
A document was put in circulation
to-day from headquarters on a plan of
labor bureau of the democratic national
committee to keep alive the story OF
trouble between Whitelaw Reid and
typographical unions. President Ken
ny, of the union, denounces the action
of the committee and its mouthpiece,
Arthur McSweeney.
EX-Gov. Robbie, of Maine, called upon
Chairman Carter and said: 1--WE made
our fight in September. and are not
making any special effort now, and the
indications are that the majorities will
be larger than in September. AS prssi-
dent of the National bank of Portland
am in position to know the views OF
bankers generally upon the present
system. and they are satisfied and con-
fident the republican party can handle
any new complications that may arise.
The Enlistment of several new
manufacturing industries in our state
has strengthened the belief in protec-
ton, and further than that it adds to
growth of our population"
Hon. John Belden, of Syracuse, re-
ported everything satisfactory in cen
trail New York, and considered that
notwithstanding the factional fight in
Onondago county, the national ticket
would get n bigger majority than in
1883, and then it was phenomenal.
A letter from Bishop J. W. Hood (col-
ored), from Wakefield, Va. to Chair
man Carter, exposes a new device OF
the democracy to win the colored vot,
in the south by circulating literature
to the effect that colored bishops had
gone over to the democracy, and nam
ing Bishop Hood as one of the converts.
In his letter the bishop said, among
other things: ut was Il political trick
to catch colored votes. | know of no
Bishop Hood except myself and, provi-
dence permitting, | shall vote the ticket
headed by Benjamin Harrison. / have
voted the republican ticket ever since
had the right to exercise the franchise,
and see no reason to change now. lam
opposed to wildcat money, free trade
and free silver, and shall, therefore,
continue to vote as always have"
Congressman j. C. Burrows, of Michi-
gan, said that he considered the out
look in the west especially promising:
that there had been a great revolution
in favor of republicanism in certain
states, particularly and notably in Wis
consin, which, while considered doubt
full short time since, he has now become
convinced will give Harrison $4,000 ma
iority. In his own state, Michigan, he
is satisfied the democrats will not Sc
cure more than three of the fourteen
electors, and probably not that many.
Nevada he considered the only western
state the republicans would lose. Re-
garding New York, which he said was
the largest manufacturing state in the
union, he said he had made four speeches
there and had been received by i'm
mense audiences, and they were attend,
ed by large numbers of democrats, who
always remained until the close. He
considered that business interests alone,
aside from politics, would combine TO
prevent the overthrow of the states in
dustrial supremacy, and that he failed
o. see how any business man can afford
vote the democratic ticket and inau-
gurate a reign of free trade and wild
cat money. From his general obscrva-
tons he was satisfied that from the
standpoint of business interest alone
the Empire State could be looked upon
as safe for the republican ticket
