Jno. Barton, - - Editor. 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 3G voles Congrrss adjourned last Saturday. Montana is troubled with wolves. Congress is getting tired and is anxious for adjournment The spelling bee fever is now in Gainesville. 1 he presidential election is draw ing near—6lh of November.

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 an ‘alibi’ is a horse of another col or. The people understand him. Blaine made a speech in Indi ana a few days ago. He keeps on the northwest side of the Mason and Dixon line. No doubt he feels 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.

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.

Mr. Blaine came forward and re ceived another ovation. The confu sion, however, was so great that be did not attempt to say a word.
