New York Democratic. "The situation iu New York Htate couldn't be better. With a militant, loyal aad united Democratic organisa tion back of the President, there ia every indication that he will carry the Em pire htate by a pluralityrof at least lOO.iKX). In New York City the workers of Tnmniany Hall are doing their level best to give the President a record plu rality. In all of the democratic dis tricts of the city the registration shows a big inereaar, while in the Republiran strpnghwUU there ia a big falling off Charles K. Murphy has sent out word that every T am many orator must 'urge the re election of President Wilson, and there is a corps of them in automobiles nightly rombing the city. "I'p-state the reports show that many thousands of Republiran fanners are going to vote for President Wilaon's re election because they are happy and prosperous aud because the country is at peace. They are enthusiastic for the ('resident because he has kept the coun try ot of the Eurotican.-watr.and they are afraid that the election of Hughes would mean that this country would be drawn into the conflict. "'Preaidrnt Wilson wilt carry New Tork by mora than 100,000 votes,' says Edwin 8. Harris, chairman of the New Tork IVmoeratie State Committee. 'The President has a militant Democratic or ganization behind him, together with the. .support of a large number of Re publicans who believe that his re elec tion is necessary for the safety and well-being of the country. No leas than fifty thousand Republicans have declar ed their intention to vote for the re election of the President, and raanv of them aay that other Republieana have told them that they are going to do the same thing.' "Thomas . Smith, secretary of Tam many Hall, says that this is' a Wilson year. Millions Bat No Iasee. " Despite the millions of dollars that Mr. Hughes is backed with, he is making the poorest campaign any Republican Preaidential candidate has conducted within my memory,' said Mr. Smith. 'President WUaon will be re-elected by a surprisingly Urge majority. Tammany Hall ia doing ita part.' "The trend toward President Wilson in New Jersey is so pronounced that Kdward E. Groiscnp. rhairman of the Democratic State Committee, is confi dent of a plurality of not less than 25.000. "Reports from Connecticut are that not only will President Wilson carry the State, but also that a Democratic l nited States Senator will be elected. Homer S. .Cummins, vice-chairman of thai Itemocratic National Committee, ia the Iteuoeratie raadldate for Senator. The workingmea of Connecticut are for President Wilson s re election practical ly unanimously. , "So atrong haa the President become ia Massachusetts that hurry calls for help have been aent out by W. Murray Crane and the Republican managers. The popularity of President Wilson among the thousands of mill workers in MaasBehBsetta haa the Hughea managers badly Beared. Matthew Hale, the Pro greeeiva leader, declares that the Presi deat will carry the state by a large plurality. , "The President will hotal the normal Democrat ie vote,' he says, 'and will have tha aupport of a huge number of Pro gressives and Independents."'

I aha.ll give them my cordial sup port and vote for them. This Is one of the reforms that should have been adopted years ago. It will save money and time and enable the Oeneral As sembly to do its work iu a more satis tnry way and giu more time for delib eration. I have not yet seen any rea son given wliv thev should not lie adopted. LEE S. OVERMAN". Replying to yours of recent date in which you request a statement from me as respects the four proposed con stitutional amendments which are to lie voted on in November, I beg to say that I am heartily in favor of these amendments and trust that they will meet with the approval of our voters. J. O PRITCHARD I heartily favor each of the four constitutional amendments to be foted on nt the coming election. If the peo ple are well informed, in my judgment, they should and will give each one a large majority W. W. KITCniN. I am in favor of each and every one of the amendments to the Constitution to be voted ou at the coming election. The restriction of local, private and special legislation is possibly the most urgent one. The provision for emer gency judges is iiiont eueutial. and would decrease the cost of courts if the legislative enactment following this amendment is wisely drawn. The other two are very ensential. both in prevent ing special privileges to corporations, and in preventing the work of lobbyists In ,uch legislation. All these amend ments, of course, would I beneficial only if fallowed by wise enactments of the General Assembly, and only a per verted body of legislators eoubt fail to do the right thing in carrying them out. P. A. I JNNEY. Replying to your letter of the 20th Instant asking an eipresaion of opinion from me as to the four amendments to the constitution to be voted on at this election, I have very carefully ei ami ned each of the four, and have no beeitanry in saying that numbers 1, 3 tAutumn Ta$i)lon inspire the dominant thought of the moment in the feminine world.
