Van Wyck's Broad Views.

Mayor Van Wyck, of Now York,
will enter upon his new and respon
siblc duties with sharply clear idea
as TO the nature and extent OF the
endorsement which the people gavo
him.
He has had very full and free
conversation with a newspaper re
porter on the subject, n conversation
which shows the new mayor to have
very strong and substantial views of
his responsibility TO tho people as
we'll as to the party. He does not
attempt to magnify his own perso.
nality or to blind himself to the fact
That he was supported and elected
by men who are democrats and be.
cause lie was nlso democrat.
He was strong party man before
but the result of his election will
make him n much stronger one.
The gold press is charging that
Tammany had a deal with Platt.
Such charges are Us old as Tammany.
Almost the frat announcement of
Mayor Van Wyck, after his election
was assured,was to the effect that he
was C democrat, and elected as Il
democrat by democrats who were
true to the party principles and or.
ganization, national, state, county
and municipal. This being the case,
he declal ed that he would appoint
none but true Democrats to Office,
Democrats who have been true to
the party-whose political record is
clear and clean.

Dear Iir:
will fulfill tho promise / made
you tho night 1 left Virginia.
Wo had quito n pleasant trip.
Travelled through great deal of
fine country, but found ii all suffer.
ing from drought. The grass and
every thing was dried up through
kentucky Ohio, Indiana, Illinois,
Missouri and Kansas until wo reach
ed tho southern limit of the last
named state, and when We reached
Indian Territory the grass was green
and everything looked prosperous.
The people say this country suf
fsred from very sevore drought
last year.
We arrived at this town, Davis,
on Saturday, Oct. 10th. tbs quite
II live town, and ono just from an old
state is dazed with the whirl OF bus
mess. The streets are full of cot
ton wagons each day.
There has been t~o good rains Of
about twelve hours each since
came. Our first frost was on Oclo
ber Goth, and tho second and last
up to this date, Nov. End. This
climate is delightful in Spring, Win
ter and Fall, but expect it gels
pretty hot in summer.
The country is variety. You
can SEQ in one days travel all kinds
of land, from the finest black land
to that which is utterly worthless
and rocky and it is mixed with tim.
Der and prairie, though it all lays
well, no high ridges or steep hills.
Between this place and Lehigh they
say there is a mountain, l crossed it.
Approaching it from the east we
came up quite hill where the rocks
lay just at the top of the ground,
put when we reached the top tho
CO untry was level as far as the eyo
could see, and there is no man liv.
ing can tell where the west side Of
that mountain is.
This is fine county for per-
son with little money to get start
in. There is great deal more mon.
ey in circulation here among the
laboring classes than there is in Vir.
ginin, especially at this season of
the year. Tho farmers all raised
more or less cotton and are now find.
ing ready sales for crops. I under
stand that somo of them are very
hard pressed in the Spring, after they
have spent their cotton money but
the farmers who raise diversity of
crops and stock are all doing well.
