THE INTEREST md DUTY or VOTERS.
NewYorIcrs have registered; how will they
vote? The great majority Of course in accord
ance with their lifelong political beliefs. III all
who vote vote in that way, 1t will be only
question whethcr more Of one party reach the
polls than of the other. Thousands fail, even
In Presidential years: thousands more when
there are only congressman to be elected. In
other years like this the vote Is usually light,
and the practical question is whether 1t Is 10
be lighter on one side than on the other. IRE
dictiOns about such a matter are foolish. IL Is
the one point on which all political calculations
fail But there are abundant reasons why
voters should make themselves felt this year in
order to express their will. Bad nominations
by the Democrats. that Of Maynard especially.
constitute reason
A reason which ought to influence an immense
number OF voters, Democrats as We'll as Re
publicans. is the condition OF industries. 1t is
time for the people to express their opinion.
A policy in the last degree dangerous TO the
business and industry Of the people OF New
Yorl, has the earnest support OF majority IN
both houses Of Congress and OF the PRESIDENT.
1t will find expression in n law hostile ana de-
strctve to the business OF this State. unless
tie people take ccasion TO express their dis
sent The prostration Of manufactures, ana in
consequence of many important branches OF
trade Is the direct result Of the trans
fer Of power to party from which such lcgs-
laton is expected. At this hour Il large proper
ton Of the manufacturing establishments OF
this State are idle A great army OF willing
workers seek in vain for work More than a
hundred thousand families In this State alone
are pnched and suffering because Of the appre
hension that a tariff disastrous to the industries
Of this State will be enacted
! NewY0rk City Is the greatest manufacturing
city Of the country, and the State Is the greatest
manufacturing State. It's foreign commerce Is
insignificant In comparison with its manufact
uring interests. But even Its foreign com
merce shrnks under the mere apprehension OF
policy which would close thousands Of works
In this country, so that they could no longer buy
foreign materials and which would render
millions Of workers less able to purchase i'm
ported articles. The decrease of imports COM
pared with last year is now about 30 per cent
and il is impossible to say what the decrease
would be under a tariff which would leave mill
ions Of Americans without employment in Greer
| TO open the doors more widely to foreign goods.
1t has been the worst year in the history Of
the country for more than forty years. True Il
great part Of the less and suffering has fallen
on Western and Southern States But New
York also has Its vast multitudes of the unem-
Dloycd. its thousands Of failures. Its host Of

turned out of employment because or business
disasters. The silent mills in this State are
eloquent. They show the people what The Dem
ocratic policy will do for them II IT hnds full
expression in n new tariff There are many
hundred thousand hands in this state whose
wages have been reduced this year. But these
men know. if they are fairly intellisen', 'iEit
the reduction caused by fear is only part OF the
reduction which would be caused by realization
Of the overthrow of the protective duties upon
which many great industries of this state de-
pend.
There are two classes Of voters who nave
snecial reason TO make themselves felt TINS
year. The Republicans who were dissatiSh"
or disconnected last year. and votcd against
their party or failed to vote have reason 10 re-
pair their error The Democrats who believed
that Democratic victory would bring National
prosperity have had year Of experience WHICH
ought to cnlightcn them. They have the strong
est motive to say to their representatives Ill
Congress-: ave never intended Il tariff when
would strike down our industries The men IN
Congress who propose such n tarin H'is' oe
resisted to the end. or your State ana your
districts will be Democratic no longer. NO
other logic touches so surely the Congressional
mind. It Is time to let Congress know That the
disasters Of 1893 have awakened voters 10 the
danger Of the Democratic policy

REPEAL ACCOMPLISHED.

The Repeal bill passed the House yesterday
with less delay than was apprchcnded, was sent
TO the President and signed by him at once
His qualification will be shared by business
men of all parties lie receives from all quar-
ters praise for his steadfastness, which he well
deserves. But no one knows better than Pres
idcnt Cleveland himself that this important
measure would have been beaten but for the
unwavcring support of Republicans. NO one
knows better than the President that he wouid
have been defeated and affrontcd by the almost
unanimous act Of his own partsans Dut Ior
the honorable refusal Of the Republican MI
nority to seek political advantage In the
Senate all the Democrats but five pledged them
solves 10 u compromise which would have been
humiliating TO the President and disastrous 10
the country, and which he would have been
cOmpclled TO veto in the face or MS pohticai
associates Had the compromise passed the
Senate il would have been received with dc-
light and hearty support by n large majority
Of the Democrats in the House it is probable
though perhaps the proportion in its favor
would not have been so large as il was In the
Senate
Under these circumstances. the final vote In
majority was largc-91 out Of a total vote Oh
oS5.-and yet it is well known that many voted
for the measure because its passage had De-
come certain who would not have supported IL
under other circumstances. In both houses tne
real fest came on other motions than on the
Gna! passage Of the bill; in the Senate on The
motion TO substitute free coinage or the Old
Bland bill and in the House Oh the similar
motions which preceded the passage OF the Dill
| in August.
1t has been said already that the financial
effect of this measure is likely TO disappoint
those who have INDUCED most confident hopes
II will do good, in the end If not Immediately
because it clears away one cause OF distrtst
and apprehenson. All will be rcjolced If the
event proves that the measure was really as
important as any one has supposed. But time
will probably show that, as many persons
anxjo,,sly attributed to silver purchases large
share Of the dis listers which other Influences
produced. so they have constantly predicted
brighter and more satisfactory results from the
| rcuea! than can be realized 1t is help. ut all
| events. and though it comes too late FOR many
| who have been overwhelmed by disaster which
il might have avertcd or delayed. will be hailed
with ioy by all who care for sound money and
| nubc honor.

That Is Enthusiastically good news from South
Africa, that King Lobcngula has been defeated
and has taken to fight. and that his capital
krnal Buluwavo, has been captured by the
British. Mr. Iabouchcrc and others Of the
"Littlc England" faction have in Il manner
half cynical, half maudln. tried to hold the
Matabclc monarch up as IN injured Innocent
but to no effect Their stories Of wanton ont
RACES committed by the British upon the Mata
bclcs, coming through Bocr channels by way OF
Pretoria were ridiculous and contemplate in
the extreme; for the Beers have always been
notorious for their cruetics toward the natives
and their testimony against the British there
fore savors rrcsistibly Of the VOLTS accusa
tons against the shepherd dog. There Is no
good reason to doubt the correctness OF the ac-
counts given by Mr.. Stanley. Mr.. Seous Mr.
Bent, Mr. Haggard the Rev. DR. Hartman, and

There n fine display Of buncombe in the
Board of Estimate the other day. when on
Mayor Gilroy's suggestion over 100000 of the
State tax was "repudated' on the ground that
II had been levied under n law that was pro-
nounced unconstitutional by the Mayor. Mr.
Cllroy's ability as 4 constitutional expounder is
recognized all through Tammany Hall. and the
Wigwamites would much sooner take his say-so
on the subject han that Of the court of last
resort IL was great shock to the board
when they learned the amount of the State
tax and If 1t had not been for the Mayors
presence OF mind there would have been a pretty
kettle OF fish indeed. However. "repudation"
has made 1t all right-until after the election.
OF course this tax will have to be paid, and
the heroic attempt to keep down the provisional
budget will have only temporary effect. When
the final estimates are made up the figures will
be appalling to the taxpayers.

generous support from the press and the pup
