SATURDAY, SEPT. 23. 1882.
Republicanism under aDy other name
don't smell any sweeter.

According to the last census there are
0,632,549 negroes in the United States
and 6,079,944 people of foreign birth.
This is about the coolest thiug con
nected with the late President Garfield's
sickness: An ice company has sent in
a bill for ice furnished from J uly 10 to
September 7; amount, 53-5,970 pounds;
cost, 81,510 92.
If it was true, as said, that Sims had
cheated 300 negroes oat of their votes,
he was the very man they wanted, so
that he might cheat for the negro a
while Prince Brown, colored, at the
recent Republican convention.
The New York Sun, speaking of the
festive time that Mr. Arthur has when
he visits other cities, remarks that he
always ha3 a quiet time when he visits
New York. Perhaps this is because he
is better known in New York than
elsewhere.
The original estimate of the cost of
the Brooklyn Bridge wa3 67,000,000;
$15,000,000 have been expended on it,
and it will require $3,000,000 more to
complete the work. The New York
World is of opinion that there has been
more steal than steel in the job.

He started out by saying that he had
come there to beat the Democratic par
ty and the best way to do that was to
be harmonious and endorse the Liber
al ticket A. W. Calvin, colored, at tlie
Republican convention last Saturday
"Winston Republican : The Prohibi
tionists of this (Forsyth) county, we
learn, w ill haye out a candidate (inde
pendent) for the House of Representa

only thing yet to settle being, whether
the antecedents of said candidate shall
be Republican or Democrat
Arrests of the followers of Arabi
Pasha continue in Egypt. Among the
latest is Said Bey Gandel, who was pre
fect of the police on the 11th of June,
the first massacre of Europeans. He
has been placed in irons.
At first he was opposed to coalition,
but after mature reflection and a care
ful consideration of the situation, he
had changed his mind, because he
thought the Liberal movement meant
success for the Republican party. J".
W. Gordon, the colored mail agent in
his speech at the late Republican con
vention. See it Democrats?
Philadelphia Press: Senator Hoar
thinks the emancipation of Virginia
from Bourbon rule is a good thing, but
he isn't sure" whether his conscience ap
proves or condemns the means by
which it has been accomplished. There
are a good many fellows in the same fix
as Senator Hoar on this matter.
Philadelphia Press : Daniel Webster
declared it to be "a great abuse to bring
the patronage of the general govern
ment into conflict with the freedom of
elections." This administration, how
ever, is not running thing3 on the Web
sterian plan.
Resolved, that the thanks of this con
vention are tendered Dr. J. J. Mott
and Col. T. N. Cooper for their earnest,
active and untiring efforts in aiding in
bringing about a union and coalition,
which will secure to us victory in our
next campaign Proceedings Republi
can Convention at Rahigh, JuneUth

When Bill Chandler, Secretary of the
Navy, heard of the result of the elec
tion in Maine he was taking a pleasure
cruise in the United States steamer
Tallapoosa, and he was so glad that he
ordered a salute of fifty guns, which
was given with government powder.

"All right thinking men are of the
opinion that Dorsey has been convicted
sufficiently to warrant hi3 resignation
of his secretaryship of the Republican
National committee."-Exchange. Why
should he resign ? The evidence against
him establishes the fact that he is emi
nently qualified to fill the post where
so much devilment is perpetrated.

These Liberal Independent Demo
crats were the very men to lead the
Republican party to victory and he in
tended to follow them. J. W. Gordon

chance for a Republican Congressional

some independent Republican took the
field. It is in the air that the managers
are trying to force the Republicans to
vote for Winston.the greenbacker. The
coalition with that partv in Alabama
and other States shows the fate of those
that flee to that resort."
INDIA RUBBER PLATFORMS.
lhe Republican convention which
met at Saratoga, New York, last Tues
day, adopted a sort of India rubber
piatrorm. It denounced monopolies,
favored purity and honesty in primary
elections, the submission of all proposi
tions regarding the liquor law to the
popular vote, low taxation, civil service
reform to the extent of the non-re
moval of incumbents- without cause
during the period, for which they were
appointed; defaonnced polygamy en

FEDERAL INTERFERENCE.
The Republican State Convention of
New York which met at Saratoga
Wednesday nominated for Governor
Chas. J. Folgor, Mr. Arthur's Secretary
of the Treasury. It has been well un
derstood that Mr. Fulger was placed in
the racf, as the representative of the
stalwart faction in antagonism of Gov
ernor Cornell between whom and Mr.
Colliding a bitter feud has arisen. Conk
ling who never forgives and never for
gets delei mined to defeat Cornell,
whom he irt'ade Governor, for a renom
ination and called on the aid of the ad
ministration, which he can always com
mand, to do it
There were four names placed before
the convention, Chas. J. Folger, who
received on the first ballot 223 votes ;
Alonzo B. Cornell, ISO; Ja. W. W.
Wadsworth, (New York Herald's can
didate) 60; John H. Starin, 19; Johh'C.
Robinson, 0 necessary -to a choice 259.
Oa the second ballot the votes began
to change to Folger and Cornell, when
Wadsworth withdraw and Folger was
nominated.
Notwithstanding the fact that Cor
nell's strength whs considerable, the
power of the administration was more
than he could cope with and he wen
under. Thus we see the hand of the
administration reaching out not only
to shape National politics but to con
trol State conventions, thus making the
nominees if elected practically tools of
that administration. As Charles J.
Folger is indebted to Conkling and Ar
thur for his nomination, he will belong
to Conkling and Arthur if elected, and
they will run the State of New York as
they manipulated that convention.
What voice have the people of a State
in their own government when the
powers at Washington can dictate the
nomination of the men who are to ad
minister the government. It is a farce
and a delusion, and a people, who prize
the right of self-government as they
should, whether they be Republicans or
not, whether they favor ih" adminis
tration or oppose it, ought to indignant
ly resent this inexcusable mciMiing and
interference with their State matters,
when it has no more business than it
has in meddliDg with the affairs of a
foreign government. But thus the
work of centralization proceeds and the
hand of the central power is now con
trolling the States as if they were mere
tlependoncies, and not sovereign States.
COL. MYERS ACCEPTS.
Elsewhere we publish the letter of
Col. AVm. R. Myers, accepting the Re
publican nomination to the State Sen
ate. It will be noticed that he gives
the Liberal convention the "go by,"and
runs on his party record as a Republi
can of the "straightest sect." He, of
course, will be glad to have votes from
liberal minded people, but he plainly
ignores the Liberal party. We should
be sorry to see him elected to represent
this county iu the State Senate, for not
withstanding the fact that he is a
straightforward, good citizen, he is
now and has been for many years a bit
ter and uncompromising partisan of
the Republican party. He is one of the
few meu who have lent their name and
character to the Republican party to
make it ivsp.:ctable in the South.which
is all the m re sin to Col. Myers.
Whilst we have a high personal regard
for Col. Myers as a man, in this race it
is a question of principle.
We hope to see him buried so deep
under Syd. Alexander's majority as to
make him sick of political campaigns
in the future.
Gen. Sherman will reside in St. Louis
when he retires from the army. lie has
a fine residence there which was pre
sented to him by the citizens years ago.
I passed my early years in an atmos
phere filled with traditions of the war
which secured our national independ
ence and of the struggles which made
our constitutional system a govern
ment for the people by the people, and
I learned to idealize the institutions of
my country. Samuel J. TilderCs Letter

THE TUNNEL ACCIDENT.
The Telescoped Train Filled With
School Girls and TeachersA Case ef
Gross Carelessness.
New York, Sept 22 The onlv per
son killed outright in the railroad acci
dent reported to-day was Madame Eu
genia Aubert, teacher of French in the
1 wellth btreet public school. Harold
Meriks was taken out of the wreck with
skull crushed and will die. The acci
dent was the result of gross careless
ness. One of the tracks was blocked up
by an accident to an ensine and this
caused a delay to other trains in switch
ing across the tracks to get around the
blockade. While one train crowded
with passengers was thus waiting on
the main track in the tunnel another
train came behind and telescoped it.
Many of the injured were hurried
away by friends and it will be difficult
to secure to-night a correct list of the
casualties. It is probable that ot h ers of
the injured will die. A ereat maioritv
of tne passengers in the Harlem train
were school girls and teachers on their

NEW YORK DEMOCRACY.
REPORT OF THE COMMITTEE ON
CONTESTED DELEGATIONS.
A Wild Time Over the Ballotin
ver Clevland, of Buffalo,
-Gro-
rakes
the Lead and is Declared the Unani
mous Nominee of the Convention.
Syracuse, Sept. 22 1:30 a m. The
committee on contested seats have just
finished their labors having decided to
report in favor of admitting the New
York contesting delegations on the fol
lowing basis: County Democrats, 3S;
Tammany, 24; Irving Hall, 10.
Syracuse, Sept. 22. In connection
with the settlement of the New York
contests, the committee on contested
seats at a late hour last night adopted
the following: Resolved that this com
mittee recognize the county Democra
cy as the regular Democratic organiza
tion of the city of New York.
Syracuse, N Y, Sept 22. Temporary
chairman Peckham called the Demo
cratic convention to order at 10:20
o'clock a. m., and stated that the lirstr
business before the convention would
be the presentation of the report of the
committee on contested seats. Mr.
Herrick, chairman, said the committee
on contested seats hud listened patient
ly to claims of various contestants who
appeared before it.
New York county democracy refrain
ed from voting on the question of rep
resentation from the city of New York.
The committee recognized the county
democracy as the regular delegation,
but with a view to the success of the
party at the polls and for the purpose of
securing entire harmony, they recom
mended that the New York representa
tion be divided as follows :
County democracy to have 3S mem
bers, Tammany 24 and Irviug Hall 10.
He moved the adoption of the report
and moved the previous question
which was ordered and the committee's
report was unanimously adopted amid
the most vociferous applause. Herrick
of Albany, said that he was directed
by the State committee to offer a reso
lution recommending that in the future
primary elections snouiu oe neia by
election districts for the election of
delegates to the convention in the City
of New York under auspices and di
rection of the State committee, until
such time as the various factions in
that city may agree as to the proper
mode of electing their delegates. The
resolution was unanimously adopted.
The report of the committee on perma
nent organization was presented.
Lester B. Faulkner was named for
permanent chairman with a list of 33
vice presidents and secretaries. Gen.
Roger A. Pryor, chairman of the com
mittee on resolutions, presented the
platform and moved its unanimous
adoption. John Kelly said a plank
should bo inserted condemning the dis
tribution of public lands to private cor
porations, and moved that the platform
be referred back to the committee for
the insertion of a plank which shall
condemn the onerous grants of these
lands to corporations. Agreed to and
the resolutions were referred back to
the committee.
The result of the first ballot was
Slocum 9S, Cleveland 06, Flower t7,
Nelson 2(3. Corning 35, Belmont 12,
Campbell 37, Hutchins 13. Total num
ber of votes cast 3S4 ; necessary to a
choice 193.
The second ballot brought no result.
On the third ballot ;i pc.;hj of confusion
ensued, amounting almost to a riot, the
convention for a time passing entirely
from the control of the chairman.
When the roll call proceeded many
changes were announced and finally the
appearances indicated a vote of about
200 for Clevland, 100 for Roswell P.
Flower, and SO for Gen. Slocum.
Slocum's friends tried to capture the
convention by a motion to declare him
nominated by acclamation. This start
ed the disturbance. Loud calls were
made for an announcement of the bal
lot. Senator Jacobs moved that a new
ballot be taken.
After a prolonged scene of disorder
this motion was adopted.
The third ballot was not announced.
The fourth ballot resulted as follows:
Clevland 211, Slocum 156, Flower 15.
Total vote cast 382.
The chair announced amid the ut
most enthusiasm that the nominee of
the convention for Governor was Gro
ver Clevland. The band plaved and
the delegates cheered to the echo. Sena
tor Jacobs moved that the nomination
be made unanimous which was accord
ingly done. Northrop, of Onondaga,
moved a recess until 7 p. m., which mo
tion carried.
Clevland is a young man, who when
nominated mayor of Buffalo upon the
municipal reform ticket, was elected by
a majority averaging 5,000 greater than
the rest of the ticket.
The platform arraigns the Renubli-
can party of the country for maladmin
istration, re-affirms the Democratic
platform of 1874, arraigns the Republi
can unjority in Congress for the failure
to reduce the taxation to the legitimate
requirements of the government, under
an honest, frugal administration ; con
demns me river ana harbor bill: de
clares the nomination of secretary Fol
ger by the Republicans a nomination
by the Federal government: declares it
to be necessary to forbid by penal en
actment, the blackmailing of depart
ment officeholders ; holds the Republi
can administration responsible for the
undressed outrages on foreien born
citizens, and demands protection when
abroal for American citizens; demands
a revision of the laws affecting our
merchant marine, with the object of
fostering that industrv ; favors the en
actment of laws providing against
fraud and intimidation at primary
elections; declares that encroachments
of chartered monopolies should be
squarely met, and these corporations
be brought under the control of the
law ; 'declares asainst convict lahnranri
isin faYorof remunerating the labor
of children, and of modelling work
shops and factories in the interest of
the health of the laborers.
Several sections of the ulatform ra
