Political NofnE.

Next Tuesday is election day. Don't
forget it.
Nevada is now the only state in the
country in which former Confederate SOL
diers, not amnestied, have not the right
of suffrage. 1t is quite evident that out
in Nevada the civil war is not over.
IL is announced that Ex-Governor Pat
tison is going 10 make few speeches for
the Democratic state ticket. Evidently
Br'er Pattison Is not done with politics
vet. Hc doubtless has am eye on next
years Democratic state convention
Says the Philadelphia Inquirer: 'Mr.
c. c. Kaufman, of Lancaster county, and
one or two others have been in Washing
ton trying TO prevent the appointment of
State Senator Saylo-, Of Montgomery
county, 10 mission. These wonld-bes
are the foes Of Republican organization in
the state. and their affiliations in Phila-
delphia are with that detestable lobby
which advocated the Mutual Automatic
then, and which is now trying To rob
Philadelphia of her valuable gas works
franchise"
The following estimate has been pre-
pared, by person of some political ex-
perience. of the probable results of the
election in Greater New York: 1t figures
on total vote of $4,000. Dedncting from
this 4O.oc0, including defective ballots
and the votes cast for Gleason and the
prohibitionists and the socialist csndi-
date, leaves 4S5,0OO votes to be divided
among the four leading candidates.
The estimate also figures I75,000 votes
for Lowe and George combined, leaving
$40, 900 votes to be divided between Tracy
and Van Wyck. That is as far as the es-
innate goes. 1t is known, however, that
in Tammany they are figuring upon a
vote of $4,000 for Tracy, which would
leave l75,0o0 for Van Wyck, sufficient to
give him plurality of some 10000. Upon
one fact all the political leaders seem TO
be agreed, and that is that whatever can
didate receives I75,OOO votes is certain to
be elected.
w. A. Stone, Western Pennsylvania's
candidate for the Republican nomination
for governor, has been endorsed by a
number of leading G.. A. R. members of
this section. A letter signed by fourteen
active veterans, requesting support and
influence in behalf of Stone, has been
prepared for distribution among the SOL
dier voters of the state. Among the sign
ers are Brigadier General William Blake
ly, recently elected Chief
of the Union Veteran Legion; Major Ed
ward A. MontOoth, candidate for gov
ernor in the convention which nominated
George w. Dela,nater; also Brigadier
General w. A. Robinson, Lieutenant
Hugh Morrison and others. Comrade
Stone enlisted when under is years OF
age from Tioga county, Pa, February 10,
1864, and served until the close o. be war,
being mustered out second lieutenant. He
is member of Post IS, Allegheny City.
He was chairman of the sub-appropria-
tion committee on pensions in congress,
and watched the interests of soldiers.
