''Is he still hvingl"
"He was living when we left

HE is my father. When you see
him on your return, salute him for
me. Tell him that his son, now be-
come man, has not much to COM
plain of in his situation, but that he
longs for his native country, his fa-
theirs village and his friends. Tell
them that am a slave of the Sango

boatman.

rHE Nem Yark Denocrats haye

THE New YuFk Democrats have
Hahn aside national issues 30 com
bine their strength On fight 20
carry the state on state issues
alone. So eorrnpt has been the
Republican administration that a
change is demanded. Never IN the
history of the state were the local
issues OF such vital Importance,
and i'm a sense Che Democracy of
New York is battling for the De-
mocracy everywhere. Should the
Republicans carry the election In
November, it would be a calamity
to all the states quite as much as
TO New York. The Republican leg
is1ature of New York enacted
Law to supervise elections. 1t is
known as the force bill" This
law creates a commissioner of cleo
tions with autocratic powers. de
has the authority to appoint an
army of deputies to guard the
polls, supervise the voting and
see that the judges of election make
proper returns. Already the
edict has gone forth that each dep
uty shall be armed with revolv-
ing pistol and what, in plain En-
glish, is a slnngshot. They will
have authority to challenge voters
and put them under arrest if they
protest. Every one of the depu-
ties will be not only a partisan Re-
publican, but a henchman of a
ward or district Republican boss.
Another of the leading local issues
is the canal ring. A few years ago
the state appropriated $1,000, 900
to widen and deepen the canals
that larger boats might traverse
them. Little or nothing has been
done toward improving the canals,
but over So, ,0OO,O 900 of the appro-
priation has already been stolen,
and the theft has already been
traced to what is called the AL
bany ring" " which is composed en-
tirely of Republican bosses. There
are other issues which concern the
state deeply, and they are all in
the broad field of Republican Off
cial dishonesty. 1t is because of
the enormity of these crimes
the state that the Demo
cratic party of New York decided
to lay national issues aside for the
time and employ all the strength
of the party in rescuing the COM
from Platt's army of
public plunderers, though the chief
aim of the Democracy is to repeal
