That fearless Democrat, Hon. Charles
F. Peck, appointed commissioner of Ia
Dor in New York by Mr.. Cleveland
when the latter was governor, officially
reports that the net increase III wages in
New York state alone under the first
year Of the Mckinley law was Sc, 37I,-

products Of labor in the state We're $3l, :
315, 1870 MY report shows that there
were just 2S5, 900 men in the state whose
salaries were raised as a result Of this
tariff law" says Commissioner Peck.

it comes from good Democratic author

Senator Plat Hard at Work for Harrison.
Senator Platt has done what every
body who knew him expected. He has
taken of his coat and gone vigorously
70 work for Republican success. He
speaks out frankly. He says that while
he did not desire the nomination of Mr.
Harrison, ne recognizes him as an able,
pure and fearless leader, one on whom
the party can fully rely AS Repub-
ican Mr.. Platt says he has never had
any thought of refusing his active sup

party.
President Harrison's Letter of Accept
auCe.
Nothing that has appeared since the
campaign opened has attracted more at
tention than President Harrisou's letter
of acceptance. 1t has proven most
telling document, and one which it is
felt must prove extremely valuable to
the party. His clear statement of the
benefits to manufacturers and working
men already felt under the Mckinley
law, produces marked effect, while his
showing Of the growth of our foreign
commerce under reciprocity is equally
convincing. His communication of Mr.
Blaine in the good work he performed
while a member Of the cabinet both as
to reciprocity and otherwise, IS very
gratifying to the admirers of that great
man. One important service that the
letter has performed is to bring to the
public attention the dangers which
threaten the business public IL return
to the old state banking system, as pro-
posed by the Democratic platform. The
proposition for a commission to consider
elections and apportionment methods
takes away from the Democrats the
scarecrow Of force bill, and shows
that neither the Republican party nor
its leader want anything more than fair
treatment for all sections and all
citizens

There is not a thoughtful business man

licans are united and how earnest they
are in this early stage Of the campaign
for success.
Scenes About the City.
Walk about the city and you are more
impressed than ever with the contrast
betwa the condition of the Republic
ans and the Democrats. Republican
banners float to the breeze everywhere.
On aristocratic Fifth avenue you find
Harrison and Reid banners, and in the
less pretentious streets and narrow pas
,ageways of the city those names spring
up again and again, as if by magic.
Look down the streets as you pass and
you are impressed with the holiday ap-
pearance caused by the prevalence Of
banners and flags. And the larger pro-
portion Of these which bear the names
Harrison and Reid, shows the advan-
tage which the Republicans have in the
matter of activity
a Democratic Bankers Views.
An official of one Of the largest banks
Of New York city, speaking of this sub
ject said: Nothing has impressed me
more strongly than TIE contrast between
the course Of the two parties in this par
ticular Banners don't vote, to be sure,
but they indicate great deal in the evil
dence Of enthusiasm in the parties they
represent.

THE business people, he answered,
apparently expect the Republicans to

in the business world take very little in

who make professions of a belief in
Democratic success when they are con-
.cerned admit that they have little con-
fidence in the result. All the people
who are willing to bet on the result are

who talk about betting on Cleveland

Harm onious TepubIicnns.

Another extremely encouraging fea-
ture of the situation to the Republicans
is the thorough harmony in Republican
ranks and the thorough lack Of that
article in Democratic ranks. The con-
/ ference at the residence of Whitelaw
Reid, the Republican candidate for vice
president, in which Senator Platt, Gen
eral Clarkson, Warner Miller and others
met the president with great cordiality,
shows that the New York Republicans
are thoroughly united and thoroughly
in line for Republican success. On the
other hand, the apparent lack Of har-
mony On the Democratic side causes
great depression among the leaders and
in the rank and file Of that party
Democrats All at sea.
The Democrats are all at sea as TO
what their course viii be. The Cleve-
land element has evidently lost hope of
success in New York state and has little
expectation Of carrying Connecticut or
any q, the New England states. The
New York sun (Democratic1 admits that
even New Jersey is doubtful state, and
that il is not improbable that the Re
publicans may win there.
The talk Of carrying certain western
states for the Democrats fails to arouse
any enthusiasm here The sun per-
sistentlv denominates the attempt as
rainbow chasing" and . mere waste Of
time and money.
The Newspaper Fund a Failure.
That the Democrats Of the country
take no stock in the proposition is shown
bv the failure Of the effort Of q hundred
Democratic newspapers to raise a cor
runr5n fund for this purpose. It's now
nearly month since this proposition
