Kvery Tub to Stand on It* Own Itottom-The Appeal of n Republican Committee Nipped In the Had Before It wai Allowed to Bloom. * V%tr York, October 13.???[Specialto The Constitution.]???Last Saturday???* New Yorli Tribune contained an earnest appeal from committee of prominent republicans urging Corcmor St. John to withdraw from bia can didney for president, as it was seriously in jnring Mr. Blafne???a prospects. It gave fourtee n reasons, which the Trib une considered ???convincing,??? why St, John should retire and allow the prohibition vote to revert to Blaine, whose hopes were being seriously impaired by Nt. John's persistent endeavors to draw oil that vote from its umal channel It considered the present movement ???con fusing;??? it thought that prohibition shoul' be submitted to tho people and not made political issue; it considered the prohibition platform a crude and unsatisfactory' plat* form not embodying the ideas of the great majority of prohibitionists; it declare* that all votes for tho prohibition nom Inee would be so many thrown away from >lr. liiaine, and predicted that should Mr. HU John not withdraw the only result would be the stif melon of the democratic party to the control of the government; it gave tho most dhmal forebodings of what democratic ccfs meant, ami throughout the whole appeal were emphatic evidences of republican fear for the result in November. in defending Mr. Blaine's dodge of tho prohibition vote in Maine it said: Some prohibitionists have censured Mr. Rial no for n??it tntlng on the amendment to the count- tutloifln Maine. Hut u little reflection will sat iny every l??lr minded perron, that It would haru beer nn arttimpfion of party authority, Immedi ately after the national conveuiiou hud declined te. make the <iw>tion an issue. For Mr. Iihdne to have voted against the amend tmnt would have been nnjtut to the prohibition 1st*: and to have voted for It, unjust to thorn who ???re opposed???both having Join(yf In adopting til?? | Ih(1<>iin and nominating him to Maud upon Over tills appeal the republicans hold high carnival, expecting from it a powerful influence with the prohibition vote. The reply of Governor Si. Jobn bus created much comment here and is received by dis gust by the republicans. They consider it> severe heavy blow to (heir November chance*. There, is no question hut that it will have a serious r flee t on Mr. Blaine's vote and that it will rally to the prohibition standard tho fnll vote of the party. OOVKRKOft ST. JOHN'S LETTER.

If prohibition was not, aa Mr. B^slno Mitd, a national !*-*????, h?? surely wan not justified h< came of any action or failure to act on tho part of hit national convention In dodging It when presented n* a state issue only. I have been teany years an humble worker in the tem perance cause. I am familiar with several temper ance organizations of N?? w York, and until three days ago bad never heard of tho New York state tunpcrancc assembly, from which your request purports to emanate. Aud ni I observe that only three of your number reside In New York state, 1 compelled to hellevo that its organization is ONI.T ??'OH CAMPAIGN PURPOSES, ???nd Its membership so small that those who con trol It were forced to go outside the state for ct>- operation. In conclusion, gentlemen, |??ennlt me to say tbit so long as the government is tho open partner of thcllquorbusliirsa to tho extent of 90 cents for every gallon of whiaky modo nnd sold; so Jong aa mew may and do Illicitly soil liquor In vlolatjou of the state law, under a United States tax rocolpt, which makes tho government partleop* erlmlnla In auch Illicit - tales; so long as In tho District of Columbia aud In the territories congress may and does per mit that which it should forbid; Just so lon^ tills UMieof tho liquor trafllo will remain a national Issue, and just so loug tho prohibition party will D A NATIONAL NECESSITY. Ill view of tho fact that said party prevent* the only presidential nominee standing on a temper ance platform, would It not be rnoro consistent for "steadfast tempcrauco man" at oneo to de mand Ike Iniuiwllate withdrawal of your ourn candidate, and thus avoid all possible calamUlo* to which you refer, liirludlug, aa you term It, "a thing of such doubtful propriety iw to put Gov ernor Cleveland Into tho white honva;" for you may reatasaurred, that so far as I am concerned, I shall neither withdraw from tho canvA* nor assume a neutral position, bit with God's help 1 shall contluno this warfare on the liquor traffic ns long ns I live, and tho II w of our country wave* Its protecting fold* over legaliz 'd drain shops. And while a voto fnrauy candidate, simply as such may be lost, ii vote for principle never thrown awuy. I, therefore, appeal to all lovers of 0<xl, and country, nnd homo to burst asunder the party shackle* that have hound them, and rising almvo mere partloan considerations, east ttiejr ballot* for principle, leaving to God the results.

I suggested. ???Certainly not. We have never confMerad It in our probabiHtlfg even. We agreed early In the campaign that wo could carry New York, Indiana, New Jersey and the loath, with probably Connecticut, and we have con centrated our efforts on these state??. We have concentrated on the first three states, ???nd have never been diverted one hour front theft battle grounds. We felt confident that the routh would t&ke care of Itself.

Senator Gorman further remarked that when the Blaine managers tried to ran over New York as they did over Ohio, they would find themselves met with perfect or fc '??nfz*-[ tion and full resonrcef-% Advice* from iudlona assure the committee that it tie give little attention to that state.

THE CROWD TOO LARGE. It was expected that Mr. Ilendrliks, democratic candidate for vice-president, would have been present to share the welcome, but lie did r.ot come. There wero four others stands' from which other addresses were to be de livered, each of which had a definite I logTatr.tnc assigned to it, but the demonstration ni,N so vast that tho programme got beyond tho control of the committee, and all the stands were one, nt one time or another.

Tlie governor could not keep nt n distance the eager multitude that pressed forward to shake In*mis with him, pud throughout the (lay ho took by the hand no less than 30,000 people. The gov ernor left Ridgewood park at half-past six in the evening, and parsing through Lafayette avenue, he reviewed n number of organizations that were unable to Join in the morning parade. Theenthu- rimm was high, nnd the demonstration was grand all along the way, nnd whon ho came to the rink, which he reached shortly after 8 o'clock, the eheering'and the size of tho crowd were prodig ious. The rink was filled, when he waa led to tho front of the platform by Mr. Augustus Van Wyok. 'ihe front doors were thrown open to all. The ar range mint was for the people to enter by the front dcor, pats the governor as he stood in front of the platform, and go out bythedror In the rear. At first they were satisfied to cheer ai d bow and puss on, but soon the demand to ft hake the governor???s' hand 'became ???Irreilxtable, nnd he was mbjected to almost two hours??? hand shaking. The rink whs densely packed with peo ple, many of whom had secured sent* by attending rc viral hours in advnnce, aud in addi tion to these not less than 10,000 people powed through the building aud saluted the candidate for the presidency. In magnitude and in popular enthusiasm tho demonstration, frem early u orning until late at night, was pro- digiour. All agree that the like of it has never bt (ii seen In Brooklyn, and many 6Ay that it was thegreateftt demumtration of popular favor ever fieri in America.

New ^Yobk, October 17.???The following wag mode public to-day: Headquarters National Democratic Committee, No. 11, West 24th street, October 16, - lSSX To tho People of the United States; Thb result of - the elections of Tuesday last, in the vtates of Ohio' and West Virginia, is hc-foroyou. Ohio clla???;?????r^J^uhUenn?????? electors in HC8,1872,1870 and 1830. West Virginia chose re publican presidential ???lectors in 1868 and 187% cud democratic electors iu 1870 and 1880. Gar field obtained a plurality in O ita in 1880 of 51,227 votes. The republican candidate la the late elec tion for secretes y of state wa * a gallant soldier am* a representative man. Thb vote of the republi can party in that election was broken down by the weight of Mr. Blame, a factional seeker aftec the presidency. The people tlierfe elected d dem ocratic mojority of the congrosiofta! deiogUiou of the state. WILL CO DEMOCRATIC IN NOVEMR^R. Wo may confidently expect a majority in Ohio for Cleveland and Hen dricks in November. West Virginia has, by Its splendid and decisive majority for tUa democratic governor at the October election, al ready declared its purpose to give Its electors! voto for our candidates in November. Tho Blalno monagers employed extraordinary method* Iu Loth states. They expended not less than fiva hundred thousand dollars iu Ohio, and more than one hundred thousand iu Wen Virginia. In their political work they (lid not use mouey only. They < ailed from every state thdbfllee holders best flttej to do the work nt which they wero put. They crowded these two states with such men a* they employed in political jobs; men engaged in tha postal service of the United State*. They left the veteran, who had saved the life of tho nation, without tlie pay with which they were entitled, under the pretence of having nn lnsufiieicnt clerical force in the pension bureau, and then used tho commissioner of pensions and a great number of his clerks as parts of their political machinery la the last elections in Ohio aud West Virginia. . J THE A DUSE OP OFFICIAL PATRONAGE. It has been openly charged, without denial, that the payment of the veterans by the commlMfonoe of pensions, has been delayed by him, with???tho purpose of compelling them to vote for Blnine. There abuftcs'of political power have been com mitted under the over-looking eye of Mr. Blaiue, and with his foil sanction. They -how tho man ner in which, Jf he were elected, ihe public offices would be subordinated to hi* , eraonal service, aLil the bounty of the couutry be made tlurixMna of advancing his personal interest*. They made the marshals of tho United States and their depu ties, who ought to be.tlie guardians of the right* of every citizen of the' United States, part of their machine force. They armed them and Incited them to violence and to outrage. They expect to pay for tho weapons and services of these men out of the treasury of thcUnited States. They mado Blsineoncof their county and ward workers iu Ohio and West Virginia, aud bo entered with zest upon his familiar duties. They devised with nl* knowledge the methods of compelling workmen to vote as their employers dictated; they kept him in daily association with the worst elements of Ihcir politic* 1 organization; they made him iheic rounselor in every difreputnblo plan wlileh they devised to promote hla success. He could not have been a stranger to their purposes to make gains in Cincinnati at the election by using aimed deputy marshals and negroes to drive vo ters from the polls. DLAINL'H PERSONAL COKUUPTtON. The methods of their .campaign In Ohio and West Virginia, aiid the share of their can???d IU tea in these methods, have added to tho approbrianx already toting upon hts name, and havo assured his detent iu tho general election In Novamber. Blaine tin* been a member of tho house of repre sentatives, ix senator In congrejsjind >ccrotary of state of the United States. He has been accused of corruptly using hi* influence as speaker and an member of th?? housa of representative for Lis individual profit. Uia misconduct has been proved by his own letters. These have confronted him wherever he ha* gone, lie has attempted no-explanation. The phrases of there letters arc so well known that they ara by-words on the streets nnd jests on the stage, A speaker of the home of representatives, a mem ber of that house, who would divert tils influ ence for roomy or property, might avail himself of the larger opportunities which the oftlcu and pow ers of president afford.*. These are not word! directed by party vnreor. They sum up the- judgment of that Inch pendent pres*,which is and always will remalu tho buiwork of u good and constitutional government. They express the conviction of the leadii k republican journals, and the belief of theso republican state* nen, where love of country 1ms forced them to declaro that the tnwuinallon of Blaluc was'oue.not fit to be made. THE HOl???E FOR NOVEMBER. There arc reasons for our confidence that wo tt ill nebievo victory In November. Tho army of offico holder's engaged for a month past In manip ulating votes in Ohio and West Virginia, most nowdiftband. Uuihmunnf the number mint go to Lis own place. Tho commissioner ???of pemious, and Ills bureau clerk* cannot be concen trated for pdltlcal purpose iu tho November elect ion. When they are acting Individually at their several states, they wlli bo unable to do mis chief. The ir ar???halls of the United State*, by reason of the powers which they exercise, may npaiti do harm in November. They ought to un- dmtnnd that for wbat they may have don??, and v.hat they may do. they will b?? hereafter bchfto the fttrktc-ftt account by a Ju*tly Indignant poiple. The hope* of reward and the promises of fo lorn- nlty which the republicans hold out to them will not avail them In the day* which aro cbw at fctr.d. The country i* fully aroused.
