Waterbury evening Democrat., 1892-09-30
NEW YORK ALL RIGHT
CONGRESSMAN CUMMINGS ON THE
 OUTLOOK.

Ihe Issues or the campaign Briefly Tut Forth-Tammany Is Doing Its Full Duty-The Prospects of Victory Were l Never Brighter. NEW YORK, Sept. 26.-The political sky, so far as the Democracy is con cerned, is by no means cloudy. The sun shines as steadily as in the great cam paign of 1884, and the prospects of vic- tory are fully as bright. In New York the Democrats will do their duty. They are fully as enthusiastic as they were in the campaign eight years ago.
 Tammany Hall is thoroughly organ ized and will lead the fight in this state So far the skirmishing has been des- ultory. The fight will not fairly open until MT. Cleveland's letter of accept ance is received and local and congress sional nominations are made. Then MT. Croker will establish his permanent headquarters at Tammany hall and give all his attention to the canvass. Tam many itself will be responsible for the city. Its honor and its safety are at stake, and it will strain every nerve to give MT. Cleveland a larger majority than that received by Governor Flower last fall. Able lieutenants of MT. Croker in the different city assembly districts have made pledges that will, if carried out all along the line, give the Demo- cratic presidential ticket 1000 majority in the city.
 In Brooklyn the organization is equal ly thorough. Hugh Mclaughlin al ways maintains strict discipline. There can be no defection in his ranks this fall. The campaign in Brooklyn was formally opened at the Academy of Mu- sic on Monday night with speech by Senator David B. Hill. There was no uncertain tinge in his speech. Hill is Democrat, both in principle and train ing. He supports the ticket heartily and unreservedly. His words will be re- echoed in all parts of the state and will enthuse and enliven sections now inac- t tive.
 a The cause of the disaffection in Kings in 1888 has been removed, and prominent leaders there say they are convinced of I their ability to carry the city by from v 15,OO0 to 10000 majority. The Denoc- Z racy will probably elect all the congress men ill these two cities.
 Now for the state. The outlook is more than encouraging. Lieutenant Governor Sheehan has established his I heart and soul with the state committed Indeed he is the real state leader in the ;, contest. He is young, active, energetic and untiring. No man more thoroughly knows the political ground. His canvass will be made even more close and 5 searching than that made last year when Governor Flower was the stand ard bearer. The governor carried the state by nearly 50,00O majority. The Republicans never made harder fight. All the power of the administration was placed at the back of J. Sloat Fassett, : their candidate for governor. Hundreds of thousands of dollars were spent to in- sure his election. He was the especial favorite of Tom Platt and the machine x leaders. Warner Miller's closest politi cal friend was induced to go upon the e ticket with him. Yet an overwhelming It Democratic victory was the result This year the situation is far different MT. Platt, chagrined at the defeat oi James G. Blaine in Minneapolis, will hardly strain every nerve for Republic an success, as was done last fall. He has learned that presidential promises 7. are pie crusts. Warner Miller is taking no active part in the campaign. There is bitter dissatisfaction among the Re publicans in the Onondago district Then there is trouble in the new Os wego and St. Lawrence districts over congressional nominations. In King county also there is an unhealed sore Secretary Tracys friends are factiona and apparently uncomfortable. The sore is an old one and it will be difficul
 to heal it. In New York city the fgh
 between the Republican short hairs anC the kid glove element seems to have ceased. The late John J. O'Briens friends have apparently been modified but they will hardly be able to deliver their goods. In 1888 O'Briens assembl, district gave the Democratic candidat
 for mayor 5000 majority and the Re publican candidate for president S0
 majority. This is a surprise that can not be repeated OBrien is dead ant many of his trusted lieutenants are il the Democratic ranks.
 So much for the situation ill Nev .aa York. There are no factional disturb of ances among the Democrats. With or thorough organization and active worl ,t | the state is safe. There can be no doub al about it.
 ,e The name of the Republican candi
 date for vice president weakened instead
 of strengthening the presidential ticke
 in this state. Organized labor will no
 accept the bargain made by the commit
 tee of New York Typographical union
 No. 6. For fifteen years MT. Reid Tough
 this union with the utmost bitterness
 He did not endeavor to make peace wit
 it until he was candidate for the vic
 presidency. He has always been an un
 compromising enemy of trades unions
 You might as well expect Homestea
 workmen to vote for H. c. Prick as t
 expect union printers to vote for White
 law Reid.
 There are hundreds of Republican
 printers in the city of New York wh
 will not accept this deathbed repent
 ance and who will vote for MT. Cleve u land to punish Mir. Reid. The printer l tLro11 nhn1t tha stata will stand by them
