Demooraitc Ticket. 1888-
CLEVELAND AND THURMAN!
For 9th District,
A D. CAxsDLER.
Gov. Hill and Mayor JlewHt.
The different candidates in the
city of Now York, are not Jackin"
for abuse on each other. If this
has a tendency to gaining voles, it.
is hard to tell who will be the
hindtnosf man.
Tammany Ilall is a lit lie sore ov
er the renominalion of Mayor Llevv
ett. Tammany had several candi
dates in the field. It seems she is
trying to pick allaw in the renomi
nation of a man, who she nomin
ated two years ago. This griev
ance is brought abont through a
difference existing between Gov.
Hill and Mayor llewett. Two
years ago, when Tammany nomi
nated Hew'ett, that gentlemm ac
cepted with a bold front and sound
democratic doctrine. Tammany
gave a big jollification over Ilew
ett’s nomination. Gov. Hill was
present and expressed a disapprov
al of Ilewett’s address of accept
ance; saying it was too heated and
calculated to get up a feeling of
strife with the county democracy,
when two-thirds of their m ijority
were represented in the no mi /.a
lion of llewett. If they hadr’t
Tammany could never have n fi
liated him
Later on, the young men's df n
ocraticclub of the city, gave a g
aupper. Gov. Hill was invited, m
was Mayor Hewett, but he dec , n
ed on account of sickness. 1.1 he
meantime, he ha 1 written Hi.
club a democratic letter—endors
ing and encouraging them on. Tin*
letter was road t Gov. Ilill i bis
gentleman recognized it by saying
ho would accept the invitation pro
vided the letter was suppressed
from being read before the club.
Was this not an insult o the club?
vVas it not a greater one to Mayor
Hewett?
The letter was published after
wards in all the governor’s own
city’s papers 11 was a blue-blood
democratic letter—sound in argu-
ment, and firm in principles. While
it may not have been as relishing
as the governor would have had
it, yet it could not have been of
fensive to a governor elected by
Ihe state democracy.
This is where tho trouble lies in
Ilewett’s renomination with Tam
many. This very thing is going
to cause a split in the city and
county democracy—and relieve
Tammany of a support that she
ay ill never be able to redeem.
It will be a u cold day’’ to the
state democracy of New York, if
Tammany has been misled by Gov.
Hill on tho eve of a democratic
national election
It is to be hoped Hill’s inten
tions rre not to trade off a national
ticket for a state ticket.. lie 6ays
il the stale can’t support him, he
wants il to stand by Cleveland
and Thurman. What kind of log
ic is there in this? Goes it not
show that there is a grievance in
the democracy of the state of New
York? Does it not show that
Hill is in doubts about the state
supporting the national democrat
ic ticket? Hoes it not show that
he is aware of the trouble he has
brought about, and must, in gome
way. make amends? Why did he
instruct Tammany to invite Mr.
1 hurman to his assistance, and re
lieve him ot his own state and as
sign him to others? He has made
several speeches in different
states within the last few days.
He had better go home and straight
en things in his own state first.
If the democrats are defeated in
the state of New York, Gov. Hill
is responsible for it, and the Ob
server has its doubts about that
state going democratic. The party
is not worth a copper without her

of violence.
Mr. Pickett continues to de
nounce the printed certificates from
the Blue Ridge Post, and published
in the Observer of 7th inst„ as
false. Tins is easy done. Proven

Blaine made a speech in Indi

the northwest side of the Mason

the atmosphere more pleasant than
in icy Maine.
The Advertiser was brim full of
Pickett last week. If the editor
would put a little more “point” to
what he says, the people would
understand Pickett’s raids and at
tempts at falsehood on Col, Cand
ler, more thoroughly.

Gen. A S. King of Baltimore, was
the next speaker. He wae introduced
by Alger, who said:
“Boys, he’s a southerner, and a sol
dier; give him a rousing reception.”
And they did, tor as be stepped out
the crowd sent up deafening huzzas.
Is the midst of Mr. King’s spetoh,
a great noise was heard in the din
tance. In a few moments the people
recognized that the cheer* heralded
the arrival of Mr. Blaine, and Mr.
King closed with the remark,
“But here comes the high private
in tbe Harrison army; give him three
cheers ”
As Mr. Blaine came upon the plat
form the multitude rose and cheered
frantioally for several ruinates. Chair
maa Thompson announced that Mr.
Blaine’s voice would not permit him
to make a speech to*day; that hie gen*
eral health was good, but his throat
was again troubling him and he must
be excused.
Mr. Blaine came forward and re

waved bis handkerchief, signalling
tbe crowd to be silent, hut the cheers
and confusion continued.
