Daily Democrat.
1 The legislatureis overwhelmingly republican.
Th republicans have carried the state
by probably 5000 majority.
We do not know how it is in other coun
ties, but there arc no republican gains in
the wool-growing districts in Linn county.
The gains are all in Albany.
It seems pretty well settled that the dem
ocrats in Jackson county succeeded in elect
ing a Constable in one of the mountain
precincts. Republicans have found a suffi
cient cause for their defeat in the fact that
they had no candidate of their own.
The foxes have holes, and the birds of the
air have nests.but republican candidates in
'Liun county have not where to lay their
heads.
"Save me from my friends!" must have
been the exclamation of Senator Sherman
when he read the remarkable letter from
Gov. Forakcr of Ohio a to Virginia corre
spondent, recently published. Koraker ex
plains that the Ohio republicans have been
"drifting along, avoiding strife and conten
tion with a view to harmonizing upon the
theory that Sherman should be supported
as long as there is any hope for his nomi
nation." The earnestness of this home
support can only be understood when one
reads further, "Our position, simply. Ulis. ;
That if the rest of the country want Mr.
Sherman, his own btateougnt not 10 pre
vent his being nominated." The eager
desire of Ohio Republicans to see the Ohio
candidate nominated is also expressed in
the remark that Mr. Sherman would make
"a good candidate," while "if not nominated
we shall be in a situation to heartly and
enthusiassically support the nominee."
Surelv, if ever there was a "favorite son,"
John Sherman is Ohio's.
Republicans have made a gain ef 115 on
the congressional vote in Linn county over
that of two years ago, but it is confined to
the two Albany precincts altogether.
The more the organization of the demo
cratic state committee of New York is ex
amined the more it becomes apparent that
it is a most effective one, and one which
means many v'stcs for Cleveland in the
Empire state.
Representative Mtlliken, of Maine, is
thus quoted : "I believe that Depew will
make one of the most eloquent nominating
speeches in favor of Blaine that was ever
heard. Then,as in he Garfield case,Claine
slips out and Depew in." This ought to
be satisfactory to Depew.
There is a terrible but timely warning in
the report that an Illinois man who started
through a passenger train taking a straw
vote on the presidential situation fell be
tween the cars and was killed.
The republican papers continue their
hostility toward George William Curtis, and
in the meantime that gentleman continues
to conduct himself as if he had a more
abiding faith in the country at large than in
the republican party as at present constituted.
The United Labor parly of Chicago has
decided that there are so many labor par
ties in the field that separate actio n will not
be advisable. They will accordingly sup
port thedemocratic state ticket.particularly
the nominee for Governor,General JohnM
Palmer. Better late than never.
Charles A. Dana has taken the trouble
to tell an interviewer that G rover Cleveland
an never be elected on a free trade plat
:nn, but he docs not explain what that has
to do with the coming campaign.
The talk about a pardon for Neebe,
Fielden and Schwab is premature by at'
least twenty years. The condemned nihi
lists have enough to be thankful for in that
they still have unbroken necks.
A very decided shrinkage in the repub
lican vote of Indiana is predicted for the
coming fall election. The party in that
state has not been so demoralized for years,
and the revolt against the Indianapolis
ring is open and aggressive and the repuh
lican organs are helping it along.
The New Hampshire republican state
convention incorporated in its platform a
resolution denouncing the democrats of the
state for electing a liquor seller as delegate
to the National Convention, and an hour
afterward elected Charles II. Greenleaf,
who owns and conducts four satoons,dclc.
gate to the National Convention at Chicago.
There is a suspicion abroad that the con
vention was not altogether consistent.
The Republican Senators arc able as vet
to find satisfactory reasons upon which to
base a rejection of Mr. Fuller as Chief
Justice. But they are entirely willing to
w ait awhile in the hope that the missing
reasons may turn up. The Senate com
mittee on the judiciary postponed the futh
er consideration of the matter yesterday
until Thursday, and they can easily find an
excuse for further postponement if thev
set about it at that time.
When Mr. Fuller's nomination as Chief
Justice shall be finally confirmed by the
(senate, it will be a satisfaction to know
that svery thing that could possibly be said
against him has been carefully considered
by an able and unfriendly committee and
his fitness for the high post well ascertained.
The deliberation of the judiciary commitec
is not to tie complained of. This Is the most
Important of all the offices filled by Execu
tive appointment, and the Senate is jcint'.v
responsible with the President for the char
acter and qualifications of the Incumbent.
It is therefore entirely right that the jud
iciary committee should take plenty of
time, as It always has done In such cases,
even though the result isoniv to defer the
RCtion that might as easily have been taken
weeks ago.
Daniel Dougherty the brilliant orator of
Buffalo New York, who made the speech
of presentation of the name of Cleveland
when he was nominated for governor of
New York and for President In lSS.i,yester '
day presented the president's name for
renomination creating the wildest enthu
The nomination of Thurman will in
crease the chances of Sherman's nomi
nation very much, in order to prevent
Thurman from carrying Ohio.
To the Thinking People of Albany
Friends : Inasmuch as this is the day
and age of sensational advertising and every
business man is racking his brain trying to
concoct some scheme whereby he can get
ahead of his neighbor. We wish .o deviate
rom that rule and make the fallowing state
ments, knowing that they will be appre
ciated by ail lovers of truth ar.d justice. W
are here in business for the purpose of
making money and we realize that in ordei
to accomplish that object we must have 9
continuance of our large patronage. Furth
ermore we know that this can be assured
only by extreme effort on our part and we
wish to state that we will at all times give
you first-class goods at prices as low or
lower tnanany nouse in AlDanv and mad
dition allow you 5 per cent off on all cash
purchases. The statement made by some
dealers that they can buy cheaper than
others is folly in the extreme as all cash
buyers have equal advantages one with an-
other. What we are striving to do is to
merit your patronage and we hope by
square, upright dealing to do so and be 01
mutual Denent one to another.
