% will certainly be elected on the 9th OF No
vcmber. There arc no marked divisions nor any
existing causes of dissension in the ranks of the
Democracy, either in Saratoga Springs or in
Saratoga county. There has not been ~ much
harmony in local Democratic organizations and
among the masses OF the party in many years
as there Is now and will continue to be till the
close Of the fall campaign and thereafter. And

prominent respectability and representing the
best elements and most pure purposes of the
party. And so. too, the Convention held this

they are in Saratoga county. there can be no
doubt of the success of the State ticket to be
nominated here on the 25th inst.

a second term. All the best interests OF the
great state OF New York need now, even more
than heretofore, that Mr.. Flower shall be kept
