AS THE PEOPLE SEE 1T.

PLAIN WORDS TO REPUBLICAN VOTERS
WHAT THE PARTY ORGANIZATION CAN LEARN
FROM THE SILENT VOTE" IN THE PAST.
To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir 1t is now apparent that Low will win
unless prevented by those Republicans who
still cling to Tracy. These are now divided into
three classes. First machine men who would
rather aid Tammany than Low. To these it is
useless to speak. Secondly, honest Republicans
who still think Tracy has a chance. but who
would otherwise vote for Low. These are seek
ing the truth. They can he trusted to find it
before Tuesday morning Thirdly. honest Re-
publicans who say. Better fail in this election
than disrupt a political organization which has
accomplished untold good in the past. and is
needed for the work Of the future. Will you
permit me to Jay few words to this third class
through the columns Of The Tribune. | address
them as follows:
Gentlemen: You fear that defeat means the
ruin of the party The fact that worries you is
that there is great. growing Independent vote
which year after year Increases in force and
which you feel is a coming power. You notice
that IT is unorganized and you dread its eff
fccts.
But. let me ask. have you noticed how intel
iigently that vote has always fastened on short
notice. to the party which stood at the time for
the principles Of honesty and freedom? Did
you notice when the Republican party took its
stand for honest money how quickly that vast
vote went over to it? Did you notice that
when the party stood squarely for honest city
government In 1874 the same vote helped to
secure the victory? And did you notice that
when the party took It's stand last August for
boss rule that the same vote swung off as
easily as 1t had previously swung on? And the
next time the Republican party takes its stand
honestly for the peoples cause do you doubt
that the same vote will be yours?
DO not doubt it, What could be more
healthy than this state of affairs? What could
presage grander future for this country?
This growing spirit Of conscientious indepen-
dence is not to be feared. 1t is rather the safe
guard Of the people, and will he the safeguard
Of the Republican party SO long as it stands
for the public good
Let us first be patriots-nay rather. let us
first stand for the cause of humanity. After
ward let us be partsans. Our present duty is
to vote for Seth Low.

A MASTER WORKMAN FOR MAYOR.

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir Whom can the workingmen of New-York
city trust Mayor for the next four years 10
look after their interests? BY "workingmen"
mean all mel who have to work for their living
Perhaps a better definition would be those who
work for the worlds iiving-that Is either to sup
port themselves or 10 support. help. encourage
enlighten others. This does not include those who
spend their time trying to absorb the earnings OF
their fellow-men by direct indirect taxation In
politics or by shrewd guessing on English race
tracks
For whom is II to our interest to vote tomorrow?
For the man who will be a faithful workman for the
city. Which Of the candidates is most likely to do
good. steady, square work In the Mayors chair?
Do you expect n man who is trained all his life
a plumber TO be good carpenter when he ia old?
Not much. General Tracy and Judge Van Wyck
mere contractors in this Mayoralty business.
They have been pushed forward by Mr.. Plat and
Mr.. Croker applicants for the position. II Cen
era Tracy should get the place. the work would
be bossed by Mr.. Plat There can be no doubt
Of that. for Mr. Plat has bossed almost all the
New-York Republican politicians OF late years and
II Mr.. Tracy wished to have some mind Of
his own. he would naturally rely on his partners
father. to whom he has doubtless made promises
In return for the nomination. and who has had
far experience than he has In running govern
mental affairs.
Fellow workmen. when vote next Tuesday for
Il Mayor. let US not vote for a mere contractor or
fgurehead. Let not vote for who Is there
for the spoils and who will put the city al the
mercy OF gang. Let US not vote for an apprentice
Let MS vote for master workman. Let us vote
for Seth Low
And when we have elected him. let US try. each
help him make this city the best city on the
face OF the earth by keeping the law ourselves. and
by furtherng that public sentiment that shall make
IL necessary for others 10 keep the law-not only
poor friendless beggars, peders and canvassers
but those in every rank. who by tricks IN trade. or
the machirery OF public Office or the illegitimate
transfer OF public franchises. try TO amass wealth
by stealing either directly Indirectly from the
pockets OF the people Yours truly
A FELLOW WORKMAN.

HAVE A WHITE ELEPHANT.
Ringing Bros. Secure the Only
Genuine One Ever Exhibited.

Contrary to the belief almost univer-
sally held for several centuries, the
white elephant is not distinct species
and capable of perpetuation. It is an
Albino-an accident of birth-and
specimens are SO rare: and SO royalty
priced that nations have gone to war
for their possession, while the inde-
pendent kings of farther India have
time and again hypothecated the flu
ture revenues of their kingdoms for a
score of years to secure the treasure
necessary to purchase them from their
fortunate possessors. Every devout
Buddhist believes, with a faith inn
planted from childhood, that the body
of the white elephant is the receptacle
of the soul of a departed priest OF
Buddha, while the possession of one
of these pretty, pink-eyed animal Al
bions is believed by royalty to insure
the safety aud perpetuity of the reign
ing dynasty. It is, in fact, the royal
mascot of the reigning house, and woe
to man or woman who treats it with
indignity or fails to PROSTATE the
body in its royal presence. To secure
genuine white elephant and exhibit
it to their millions of American pa
irons has long been the ardent desire
of the famous Ringling Bros. Year
after year they have presented to their
patrons some new and surprising evil
dence of their tireless search for nov
elites, but they have felt that not until
they had secured q genuine white ele-
plant and actually placed one of these
marvellous animals upon exhibition
for the first time in the civilized world
could their efforts satisfy even their
own far-reaching aspirations. Sever
al years ago special agent was sent
to India. His instructions were: SECT

costs; no matter how long it takes; no
matter how many obstacles have to be
surrounded get a white elephant. "
The beautiful Keddah, the only genu-
inc white elephant that human eye has
ever looked upon outside OF India, is
the, result Of that broad commission.

has been fearful but patient sufferer.
The fatal disease, cancer, has made
slow but certain progress toward the
end, which the sufferer contemplated
with confident ID of blessed inn
mortality. He Iss respected and re-
vered by all who knew him, and the
expressions of grief and sympathy
was voiced by all who met to pay their
last respect to his memory. AS citi-

James Gray was born in Montreal

In 1870 he came to Minnesota, and
took the claim in the town of Ashley

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cam
not reach the diseased portion of the
ear. There is only one way to cure
Deafness, and that is by constitution
al remedies. Deafness is caused by
an infamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube. When
this tube gets inhamed you have a
rumbling sound or imperfect hearing,
and when it is entirely closed Deafness
is the result, and unless the inflamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
stored to its normal condition, hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out of ten are caused by catarrh,
which is nothing but an infamed con-
dition of the mucous surfaces.
