Our Democratic 1rlenuS are uolilS Sic"'
deal of what is vulcarly called " butfinS" with
regard to the State of NewIOrl. Senator Hi
is not one of the " buffers." Neither Is our
neighbor "The New-York Sun" Both these
excellent Democratic authorities admit that the
State is close. The Cleveland element OF the
Democracy is essentially :" hurrah boys"
body, and il is hurrahing with the zeal and in
discretion natural to the partlSanS OF can
didate who. as Mr. Bourke Cochran remarked
in his famous convention speech. is remarkably
popular on all days except Election Day.
The State Of New-Yorll will be carried for
Harrison and Reid. There has never been
time during the progress OF the campaign When
the Republican managers have not felt reason
ably sure of this result. To-day their conn
dence is thorough Ii is based on state of
facts that cannot be gainsad and opposed to
which no other state of facts can be put for
ward that in any way dmnishes its effect.
In the first place the unbOunded prosperity OF
the state has been conclusivcly demonstrated.
II has been proved that production and the
rate of wages have both increased remarkably.
Democratic State officials have shown that there
was net increase CT wages in 1891 of S6,377,-
925; a net increase OF production OF S3l'3l0,-
1870; net increase Of savings bank deposits
Of S13, 755,44S; a net increase In Investments
in building and loan associations of SlS,7"9,-
12O: an increase in the value of real and per-
sonal property of S152.347,7 53, and net in
crease of deposits in State banks Of $lS,232,-
$50. Reports have been published from hun
dreds Of manufacturers, with their names and
addresses explicitly stated, showing that under
the operation OF the Mckinley bill they are
doing an enormously increased business, pay
ing their employees much better prices and en-
ploying much larger number of men than
ever before. These facts mean votes for the
Republican party.
In the second place the registration in this
city and in the rural part OF the state points
significantly toward Republican victory. There
has been an increase in the registration In this
city over the vote cast in 1891 growing IN di-
rect ratio from the Battery TO the Annexed
District Wherever the Democratic vote is
strong the registration is comparatively low.
Wherever the Republican vote is strong the
registration is comparatively high. In the dis
tricts below Fourteenth st about ~ per cent
Of the vote of 1891 was registered up to yes
terday Above Fourtccnth-st. about SO per
cent OF lnII NOlf Udu Dttl I'Cl>Ni'hs III 'H'
country districts the registration is similarly
in favor of the Republican party With still
another day Of registration 10 be accounted
for, the number of voters on the list in AmStcr-
dam is So per cent of the total vote OF 1sSS
in Albany SO per cent in Auburn % per cent
in Cohoes 20 per cent in Hudson 80 per cent
in llornesville 81 per cent, in Kingston -
per cent in Lockport 81 per cent in NcwburS
% per cent in OSwego 30 per cent. III Pough-
keepsie 81 per cent. in Rochester 9s per cent
in Rome ~ per cent, in Troy Sc per cent, and
in Buffalo. Corning Dunliirk Elmlra. Ithaca.
jamestown, Syracuse Schenectady. Utica and
Watertown there are notable increases over
the total poll in the last Presidential year.
These facts mean that the vote in the country
will be unusually large, and Suoh vote means
victory for Harrison and Reid
There is no disaffccton in the Republican
party. IL is true to its nominees. true TO its
principles It's voters understand the issues.
They have an intense interest in the success
of the party They admire and respect their
leaders, and are voting to sustain an Admin
istration against which during this long and
hotly fought campaign not one word Of truthful
condemnation has been Spoken The Demo-
cratic party is in fa"tions. The Cleveland Gle
ment has bowed down and worshipped before
Tammany, eating all it has said of Tammany's
corruption and vile political methods. The Hill
people perfectly understand that if Cleveland
is victorious there is an end OF their hero and
of their superb political machine. They see
in Shcehan's desert0n the plain proof OF a deal
TO nullify the influence of Hill ana Murphy, TO
elect Flower United States senator and to
nromote Shcehan to the Governorshlp Thus
votes which would not be cast against Cleve-
land if he and his managers had played fair
and honorable part with Senator Hill will be
cast against him in order to prevent the sue
aoss of this scheme Harrison and Reid will
carry Ncw-YOrk.
