of the producers upon the other side y
The Republicans gave them protection.
The Democrats have removed IL, and
have left them to the struggle with for
eign competition. Manufacturers are
in even worse straits. Two years ago
they were all working on full time, pay
ing full wages, and making full pro-
duction. Now they are idle, or are
working under restriction and trying
to explore for the line between profit
and loss Neither these farmers nor
manufacturers are likely To vote again
very soon for the Democracy, even with
David b. Hill To head it.
Again, the income tax clause of the
tariff bill hits New York peculiarly, for
it is there that are found the greater
number of persons with large incomes,
and the measure was, for this and other
reasons, exceedingly obnoxious to the
people of New York Besides all this,
the Democratic party in New York Is
not united The breach between the
Hill and Cleveland factions has grown
wider, and with Mr.. Hill as the candi-
date for governor, the Cleveland men
are not going to rally enthusiastically
in his support. They have not forgot
ten the speech of Bourke Cochran, de-
nouncing the nomination of Mr.. Cleve-
land, and the glee with which it was
received by the Hill men. Neither
have they forgotten that two of Mr..
Cleveland's appointees to the supreme
bench, Messrs. Hornblower and Peck
ham, both eminent citizens and New
York Democrats, were defeated in the
senate by Mr.. Hill. Judge Peckham's
and Judge Hornblower's friends are
not likely TO forget that when they
come to vote. They won't make mis-
take and vote for Hill. Especially may
this be inferred when we remember
that last fall they used their greatest
efforts to secure the defeat of Judge
Maynard, the perfidous scoundrel who
received his appointment to the SUI
preme bench, and his subsequent NOM
nation to the same position, through
Gov Hill rs reward for treachery and
violation of high, responsible, official
trust. Maynard was defeated by nearly
100, 900 majority, and his crimes and
the crimes of his party to secure the
control of the New York state senate
have not been forgotten.
Mr.. Cleveland came suddenly into
very prominent public notice by reason
of the extraordinary majority which he
received for governor in 1892. Very
few people knew or cared for him prior
to that, but it was his good fortune to
be nominated for governor just when
the Republican party in the state was
hopelessly split into two factions, bit.
terly opposed To each other. His oppo.
nent, Judge Folger, was an eminent
citizen, but he was beaten by his own
party-that faction of it opposed to the
administration. The conditions of the
Republican party in New York at that
time was very similar to the Democratic
situation there now. 1t resulted ther
in an overwhelming Democratic veto
ny, which foisted Mr.. Cleveland into
the glare of public notice. 1t will re
suit now in an overwhelming Republi
can victory.
New York in 1894 will be ia line will
all the rest of the Northern states under
the Republican banner.
Two years ago the people voted for {
change. They will duplicate that vote
this fall and vote for another change
but it will be in the direction of rele
eating the Democracy from power
They have been tried and found want
ing. Their policy has proved ruinou,
10 the country. They promised better
times, better prices, better wages; bu
they have given to the country hare
times, lower prices, and lower wages
The suffering from the "change" ha,
been widespread, but nowhere has i
been more seriously felt than i'm New
York, and nowhere may we look will
greater confidence for sweeping Re
publican victory this fall.
