doing the same thing in regard to the Sen

NEW YORK. December S.-The Herald to-
day demand the new United Safes Senator

self part of New York City; who has
fought for its welfare; who has shown the
quality of his Democracy by his public
acts, and the mettle of his integrity by an
unblemished recOrd.'

easy to find such man-scores OF them,
in fact. We are not inviduOus however,
i'm naming Mr.. Charles A. Dana as in all re-
spects entitled to the honor Of the position.
''Mr Dana is not only New Yorker IN
all his interests, but ne did more than Mr..
Hill did inthe last campaign 70 win the
battle for the Democratic party. If reward
is to be distributed, why select Murphy,
who was energetically opposed TO
the successful candidate, rather
than Dana, who threw his whole strength
into the fight, and so deserves the recogni-
tion which mis- honor impliesl ana is man
of brains is to be our choice, why hit upon
q pigmy when giant is near at hands
''rammany and Hill, If they are wise,
and if their professions Of service 10 the
people are genuine, will send Mr.. Murphy
10 the rear and bring the name Of Charles
A. Dana to the 'front.'
