The Independent Democrats have not strength

consistently and logically if they had agreed
upon a new ticket throughout. Lockwood pre-

MIL AGAINST EJIHIBOUI.

The outline of State AMI local tickets has been
determined and some estimate OF results II
possible Some men Of distinction have talked
about 1000 plurality against Hill. with pos
sbc plurality for ihc reform city ticket. But
there j. reason 10 expect better results than
these 1t would be one of The most amazing
phenomena OF political history If. after The ire
mrudolIS losses sustained elsewhere. the Demo
cratic party should nearly hold It's own in This
State or city Right across The line in Connect
cut there are towns in which that party has lost
This year more, than quarter of It's whole vote.
Right across the line in Vermont similar LOSSES
have been sustained. Nobody can give Il reason
for expecting the Democratic party on one side
Of an imaginary line 10 poll lis fun vote. while
OH the other side Of that line lis losses are IN
prcccdcntcd.
The industrial situation is said to br much bet
ter than il was Il month or two months ago
Somewhat more men are employed. il is rca-
soned and the proportion which will refuse votes

with the condition of Labor is therefore expected
to be- less than II was az earlier elections. But
most of The men employed at all getting re-
duccd wages. The last month has brought no
tidingS of increase. but in many cases men have
accept lower pay. The workngmcn feel This.
and rightly attribute II to the policy of the
party in power They know that less restricted
competition with British or Belgian labor must
mean for them wages nearer those paid in Brit.
ain or Belgium. Another fact IS that merchants
and manufacturers in great number have been
able 10 realize scarcely any profit or none on
such business they could do What revival
of trade they have seen has been in volume Of
sales rather than in profits
Il would be strange. indeed. il this state OF
facts should not cost the Democratic party the
loss OF Il considerable share OF its entire vote,
rs Il has in all other States. If it is urged that
Hill and his effective machine can rally 10000
votes more than the general ticket. that is only
per cent Of the Democratic vote in the State,
to balance loss Of % per cent realized in other
States Should improvement in labor conditions
make the loss here on general grounds II per
cent against - per cent elsewhere. and should
HIS energy and power with the machine add
10000 votes more, there would yet remain loss
Of about $1,000 votes In the case Of Hill. how
ever. the opposition Of the third ticket will be
serious II would he evidence OF amazing in

The shape Of the local ticket will have its in

votes in two Congressional districts mt special
