EnrIy Fail Elections.
albany Argus.]


Very few state elections remain at
such dates as to be reminders OF the old
time excitement Of national campaigns,
when Ohio ard Indiana. for example,
were October States" Nearly all now
hold their State elections in November,
a highly beneficial change in every way
from the condition that existed when,
every four years, "Dorsey's soap was
freely used by national committees TO
influence State elections, because OF the
effect upon the general result a month
later.
OF the State elections occurring this
year before the general roundup in
November-Maine. Alabama, Arkansas,
Florida, Vermont, and Georgia-the re-
suit in Maine will excite the most specu-
lation and interest. Upon the surface
II appears as If the supporters OF the
Chicago ticket would be foolish TO ex-
pect much from Maine, despite Mr.. Sew
airs candidature or TO create impress
sons of a probable victory there on
September 18th, since the result Of a de-
feat after creating great expectations
must necessarily be great disbursement.
Maine did. indeed, elect Harris NJ
PIaisted Governor in September 1880. on
a Fusion platform in the height of the
greenback excitement, but she has uni
versally chosen Republican electors since
the war. even in 1880 changing the 200
plurality for Plaisted in September to a
substantial plurality for Garfield in No
vember. At the Maine State election or
1894 the vote was: Republican, ss5ss DEM
ocratic, 3O,62l; Populist 5,S2l; Prohibition.
2.7SO: and the Republican plurality was
$3.50. as against 1879 in 1892. victory
for Bryan and Sewall in Maine could be
accomplished apparently only as an Incl
dent of a general landslide.
As to the other States mentioned, all
except Vermont, which is hopelessly Re-
publican. are likely to go largely Demo-
cratic.
Alabama votes August Sd. In 1894 there
was no Republican ticket. the vote being
1l0S65 Democratic against 8,2S Popu-
list. In 1892 the vote was l3S,l3S Demo-
cratic s5.lSl Populist and @,l97 Republic
can.
Arkansas votes September 7th. At the
presidential election of 1892 the vote was:
Democratic, 1884; Republican, 1854;
Populist. n.s3l. At the State election In
1894 the vote stood: Democratic, 1859;
Republican. 26,0S5; Populist. A,5il.
Florida votes October 9Th. and Georgia
October 7th. In these States. as In Ala
bama and I'm Arkansas. a fusion be-
tween the Democrats and Populists
would make the election mere form,
and in either the Democrats. In 1892 and
in 1894. easily defeated the Populists and
Republicans combined. AS for Vermont,
nobody doubts the ability OF her Republi-
cans TO defeat the Democrats. even with
the addition of what few Populists the
State has. She votes on September LIST.

preserve the gold reserve and stave or
panic. Instead OF threatening the coun-
try with panic. let our financiers reverse
their plan of campaign. and organize so
thoroughly that no panic Will be possible
between now and the day of election.
Unless we much mistake the signs OF
the times. our financlers will be COM
PEELED to reverse their position socn- In

that there VIII be no panic; or. least

ing question settled. and settled once

THEY WILL PROVE TRUE.

Several OF tho southern Democratic
papers that were In doubt az to whether
they would endorse the action OF the
Chicago convention have aligned them
selves with the party, and leading
paper OF this section. which at first re-
pudIated the nominees. has returned TO
It's Democratic allegiance. And as IL mas
been with these papers so II will be. we
predict, with the majority of Democratic
voters who are In doubt or nave
threatened TO bolt the Chicago nominees.
Such voters will prove true to the Demo-
cratic party. IL for no other reason ,nan
that assigned by the New York Evening
Post as determining the final attitude OF
the papers referred to- The Post, in a
calm discussion OF this matter. says that
the people OF the South are slow to Tor
get the local record OF the Republican
party In reconstruction times, and they
stiil remember It's repeated efforts In
Congress to pass force bills. The result
is that they shrink now from Lending any
favor to political organization from
which they have suffered so much In the
past.
True. And the influence of this record
upon southern dissatisfied Democrats VIII,
we believe, be gradually strengthened
immeasurably by recognition OF the
fact that there is not scIntilla of reason
TO expect That should the Repup-
lican party again come into power II
would change its southern policy one

are constantly raiding the gold reserve.
This very week the hands OF the silver
s.es have been vastly strengthened by oc-
currences at New York. First, the gold

were run down. Then the banks an

POLITICS AND PENSIONS.

The New York Times says the govern
ment pays about Sl400oo,ooo annually Ill
pensions-last year the payments amount
cd 20 s14l. s95. 22e-and that while now
every one of these dollars is equal 10
dollar in gold, If the policy OF the Bryan
platform and party should be maoe
effective by the legislation which Bryan
and his followers demand. every doiiar
thereafter received by y pensioner would

This Is the most den" sogic appear we
remember ever to havc cen In the Times
IT is also an unnecessary appeal, Tor the
Times knows. or ought to know, that the
Republican party owns the vast majority
of the pensioners, and will command tneH
votes under any circumstances. a goooiy
norton OF this enormous pension ophsa-
tion was piled up by the Republican par

hut IN order to bind voters 10 the Republic

~ our financial troubles IS the dram
70 nav the fraudulent pensioners the he-
publican party has placed on the pension
rolls. Whether there is anything in the
5s-cent-dollar argument or not-and 'here

point--there is no doubt about the TACT
that the Republican pension legislation
as whole is no less an outrage upon the
nation than upon the Federal soldiers
who did their duty during the civil war.

sHEEHAx FOR THE TICKET.
The Tammnny Leader Says misses
Want Declarations for Bryan.


To the Editor OF the New York Journal:
From what / have heard to-day, there
can be no mistaking the temper OF the
people The district leaders are practi-
cally unanimous In their opinion tnat
the Democratic candidates are popular
among the masses, and that bolt would
be both inadvisable and In direct oppo"
sition 10 the wishes Of Democratic voters.
There has been ample time since the
Chicago convention for the district leaders
TO learn the sentiments OF the orsanlza-
tons they represent and such as caiieo
upon me to-day report. without exception.
/ may say. that the Democrats--the reai
Democrats-want to ratify the nominal
ton OF Bryan and Sewall And. what Is
more, they do not wish any delay about 1t.
This question of delay has been ex-
haustively discussed in the newspapers,
and such leaders as / have seen are or
the opinion that there Is no reason FOR
delay. l declared myself at Chicago, ana
there is no reason why / should not re-
iterate now, that Tammany is for the
Democratic ticket. That being the case,
the leaders ask, why not come out and
say so?"
one thing is certain--the leaders who do
advise have not come to conclusion
hastily. They have gone among the peo-
pie-the common people. mind you, and
not the millionaries-and they have found
that these people are not inclined to stand
any further delay.
Unless change Of sentiment occurs
between now and eIection-day, Bryan VIII
sweep the State. You may call II
"craze," or what you will. but the peo-
pie are behind Il. They are being edu-
Gated, and the most frantic efforts OF the
opposition cannot stem the popular tide.
Believing this, II has been deemed adj
visable to hold a meeting of the Execu-
tive Committee of the Tammany organi-
cation as soon as possible. This meeting
will be held within few days, when
steps will be taken OF definite and
official character You need not fear
but that the Democrats OF this State will
be for Bryan. He will carry New York
by larger majority than did Cleveland
in 1892 JOHN c. SHEEHAN.

General George w. Jones died at Dubu-
que. Wednesday. aged 90 years. He was
Iowa's first senator. and was member
of the United States House Of Represent
tatives and the second Of Mr.. Cilley,
when the Cilley-Graves duel was fought
Mr.. Graves's second was the Hon. Henry
Wise. of Virginia. The meeting took
MACE on the Marlboro road near Wash
inqton. ON Februarys24, 1895. Rifles were
,sed and Mr.. Cilley was killed upon the
third firing. Graves was expelled from
his seat in the House, and Jones and
Wise were censured in a resolution passed
by that body.
AS early as 1926 General Jones was an
aide-de-camp of General Dodge In the In
dian wars of the Northwest. and In 1884
he was a, delegate In Congress from the
Territory Of Michigan. When that en-
pIre in extent was divided he represented
the Territory of Wisconsin. and later
was senator from Iowa from 1sis until
1859. when he was appointed Minister TO
New Grenada. On his return from that
mission. in 1s6l-'s2. he was arrested and
imprisoned in Fort Warren. A letter.
written to President jefferson Davis. was
intercepted and caused his arrest. The
letter was a friendly one, asking the
Presidents kindly interest in his son. who
had taken sides with the Confederacy.
Explanation Of 1t secured his release.

WHAT WILL FOLLOW.

There were many financial speeches
made in the Chicago convention, ana
many in the other conventions, but no
body else has shown himself so familiar
with the subject as Mr.. w. psf. John, OF
New York city. He told his st. Louis
hearers exactly what he expected TO fol-
low the reopening of our minis to silver.
He seemed to have not n doubt on the
subject. He said:
This then, Is what will follow the re-
opening OF our mints to silver: The gold
already I'm the TT Sisury will remain there,
II common sense dictates the Treasury
managemert-that Is, II the Treasurer ex-
ercises the option to redeem United States
notes in silver. premium on gold Will
not occasion a contraction OF the cur
rency, bank boards of gold continuing
to serve as a portion Of bank reserves
against bank liabilities. premium on
gold will tend to increase our exports by
causing higher rate of foreign exchange
that il TO say. by yielding a larger net
return in dollars on the sale of bills OF
exchange drawn against goods exported
A premium will tend to diminish cur i'm
ports by increasing the cost OF bills Of
exchange with which to pay for goods
imported.
the tendency of increasing our exports
and decreasing our imports will be. first,
to set our splndles running. swell the
number of paid operatives, increase their
wages. thereby adding to the number
and paying capacity OF consumers. and
thus enlarge our home market for all
home products and manufactures, with
prosperity in general as the result as
sured.
"The tendency of increasing our ex-
ports and decreasing our imports will be,
second. 10 establish credit balance of
trade for the United States. A credit
balance of trade means that Europe has
| become our debtor. and must settle with
us in money. Europe's silver money is
overvalued In her gold, compared with
ours, by from TO z cents on the dollar.
The European merchant or banker will
! therefore make his trade settlements with
us In gold more profitably by from to
per cent than in silver With the In
slant that European trade settlements
