A REMINIsCENCE.

In 1868 the Democratic party held its
National Convention to nominate Presi-
dental candidates in this city.
Ioratlo Seymour, Ex-Governor OF the
State, was recognized as the leading
man of the party. Public sentiment
leaned towards him as the most fitting
leader of the Democracy in the cam
paign about to open.
But Horatio Seymour declined to ac-
cept nomination. "Your candidate /
cannot be" were the words he addressed
to the delegates.
The Convention met and, despite his
declension, nominated Horatio Seymour
for President without his consent. The
delegates then adjourned and went
home, feeling that they had done their
duty by their party. EX-Gov. Seymour
was not given the privilege of declining
the nomination. 1t was felt that he
was the representative Democrat OF the
day
Gen. Grant, the hero Of the war. the
preserver of the Union. the military
idol of the people was the Republican
nominee. His election was never ques,
tionable. But ex-Gov. Seymour carried
the State of New York. The State was
as 1t Is now, Democratic on fair vote
The Democrats recognized Horatio Sey
mour as their natural leader and gave
him the vote of the State.

THAT RELIEF FUND SCANDAL.

The Central Labor Union is following
up the charges made against the Park
Commission OF n misuse and diversion
of the million-dollar relief fund placed
under It's control last Winter to relieve
the sufferings of the unemployed poor
and to put food in the mouths of starry
ing women and children.
A report, such as 1t is, has been made
of the expenditures. and an itemized
analysis of the same prepared by the
Comptroller's office. But the Labor
Union does not regard these statements
as satisfactory. and alleges besides
that they do show how large "A proper
ton of the fund has been paid out to
favored contractors and on drilling
jobs, instead of going to the direct re-
lief OF unemployed workmen. Certainly
the Park Commission seems to have sue
ceeded in drilling n great number OF
holes in the charitable character of the
liberal appropriation.
The people will never rest satisfied
until the bottom facts OF this scandal
are reached.

the London Painters.

LONDON, Sept. 24.-The correspon-
dence between the Baroness Burdett-
Coutts and the Secretary OF the Lon
don Painters Trade Society has been
published, and is attracting much atten-
ton.
The Secretary wrote that complaint
had been lodged against the Baroness
for allowing her stablemen at Brookfield
to paint the stables, instead of employ
ing Union painters to do the work. The
Baroness, In spirited reply, after point
ing out that Brookfleld Is the property
of her husband. denounces the mon
strous and intolerable oppression which
the union claims to have the right to
practice. and which would deprive every
workingman of the right to work out
his own advancement by his own en-
ergy and rob him OF the birthright of
personal liberty"
The newspapers generally denounce
the action of the Union, and point out
the services of the Bar ness to the work
Ing people, and how she has spent many
years of her life and a large part Of her
great fortune in their interests.

Saturday night the clothing of George
Lockhart, of Sl4 West Fifty-fourth

he lay asleep in bed.
Lockhart fortunately had change

for a days pleasure, and when he re-
turned at midnight Lockhart handed
him over to the custody of Policeman
Cooper of the West Forty-seventh

AS the policeman was examining h q
pockets for any weapons, he noticed
that Rankin had on two pairs of trou-

the result said to be sure to follow. There
are about $500 Indians on the reserva-

each more than fifty miles distant from
San Carlos.
Outbreaks in Arizona have frequently
occurred as the result OF the drunken
quarrels among the Indians themselves,
and troops at San Car.os are considered
absolutely necessary for police duty in
the breaking up of the Indian liquor
camps. The Indians have no means OF
making a living except by cutting hay
and wood with which to supply the
troops and raising barley ana corn for
the same purpose and the presence of
troops alone has kept the reds at San
