Special Correspondence Globe Democrat
NEW YORK, Oct. 29-Among the
prominent callers at republican head
quarters was Judge John M. Thurstou,
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 cats-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 republica n
| success"
A document was put in circulation
to-day from headquarters on a plan of
| labor bureau of the democratic national
COMMITTEES to keep alive the story of
trouble between Whitelaw Reid and
| typographical unions. President X en-
NY, of the union, denounces the action
of the committee and its mouthpiece
Arthur McSweeney.
Ex-Gov. Robie, Of Maine, called upon
| Chairman Cart er and said: 'sWe made
our. fight in September, and are not
making any special effort now, and the
indications are that the maiorities will
be larger than in September AS presi-
dent of the National bank of Portland
l am in a position to know the views OF
bankers generally upon the present
system, and they are satisfied and con-
| fident the repu blican party can handle
any new complications that may arise.
The establishment OF several new
manufacturing industries in our state
has strengthened the belief in protec-
| 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 a bigger majority than in
1888, and then it was phenomenal.
A letter from Bishop j. w. Hood (col-
ored), from Wakefield, Va, to Chair
man Carter, exposes new device OF
the democracy to win the colored vote
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: 'It was a political trick
to catch colored votes. / know of no
Bishop Hood except myself and, provi-
dence permitting, I shall vote the ticket
headed by Benjamin Harrison. have
voted the epublican ticket ever since l
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"
Congressma J. G. 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 1000 ma
jority. 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
6here 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
to see how any business man can afford
to vote the democratic ticket and inau-
gurate a reign of free trade and wild
cat money. From his general observa-
tions he was satisfied that from the
standpoint of business interest alone
the Empire State could be looked upon
as safe for the republican ticket
