QUESTION which u great manydemocrats are asking themselves is ,whore did the democratic convention ofNow York Ictivo Mr. Clovolniut ? Ac-cording

tured competent men.

Dr..

. S. D. Mercer of Omaha wau electedchairman of the state central commit-tee

¬

, which insures to the campaign avigorous management. No bolter selec-tion

¬

was possible and the complimentwas most graciously made unanimousafter the announcement of the first bal-

lot¬

, although ho was several votes shortof a majority.

Taken all in all , though the action ofthe convention was not exactly whatTIIK Bun had desired , the ticket is onowhich every republican can heartilyendorse , and the convention did itselfcredit. It loaves fewer wounds than anyconvention in years. It demonstratedthe fact that the republicans of Ne-

braska¬

are both in earnest and in har-mony

¬

and can go into the contest lo winsuccess in November.-

trast with the democratic platform ,

which is a series of denunciations , therepublicans offer nothing 'jut congratul-ations.

. The characteristics of the twoparties are shown' in their conventionenunciations. Ono is a prophet of evil ,

the other of good. Ono seeks success bycreating popular distrust ana apprehen-sion

the platform of the republicansif Nebraska , and it is in por-"oct

harmony with tlio situa-tion

and with popular fooling. Theposition regarding silver is sound inivory respect. The existing law , pro-viding

prominent No v York politician ro-

ontly-

referred to the selection of Mr-.'assott

.

1ms not only harmonized theiivrly , but ho has Infused Into it earnestO-SH

-

, enthusiasm nnd confidence. Illslubllo speeches have a freshness andi or about them thai make a mostivornblo impression. IIo ia a manf Intelligence and of Ideas , and hotales his opinions in language that per-iits

-no doubt of hla moaning and hta-

incorlty. . The pulllo and private char-ctor

-of Mr. Fnssott Is 'Irreproachable ,

s his political opponents freely admit ,IH ability Is unquestioned , and lie hasliat aggressiveness as a politicianrhleh all men admire and which willspecially commend him to the favorf the younger class of voters. Thelost serious charge mudo ngninst-im IH. that ho was largely Instrumentali defeating & bill In the legislature

which proposed to appropriate $10,000000 as a guarantee fund lo enableYork city to got the Columbian oxpoilt-lon. . The truth Is that this waischeme to place a largo sum of monowithin the roach of Tammany , to b-

used In tlio Interest of the domocrntiparty , and the republicans ithe legislature very proper !

opposed and killed it. Thfact that Mr. Fasselt whs prominent ii

this action is altogether to hla creditand while it Is possible that it will loshim some voles in Now York city , I

ought to make him stronger In othoparts of the stato.

The nomination of Mr. Flower by tindemocrats has not Improved the chanceof that party. IIo Is a weak man to bput in leadership , except that h-

Is very wealthy and llbornwith his money for political pur-poses. . Tlio selection of this mllllonalncandidate was a striking example of tininconsistency of the democracy , whiclclaims to bo the only party that Is tinfriend of labor nnd tim foe of plutoc-racy , and Mr. Flower will not bo ableticommand the full strength of his partyoven though David Bennett IIlll shoult-go upon the hustings in hi-

interest. . There are thousands of demo-cratic workingmen in the state of NovYork , and a great many demo-cratic farmers also who will not votefor Flower , not alone because ho Ii

wealthy , but for the reason that IK

made a largo part of his money asrailroad director by the simple processof stock watering. In the cor.vontioiwhich nominated him several promi-nent democrats deprecated the choice o-

a man solely because of the length ohis purse , and the unheeded counsel othose men will have its influence willthe masses of the party.

The prospect of republican success itNow York is altogether encouragingThe party has never boon in bettor light-ing form than it is at the present timeand there is every reason to expect thn'harmony will bo maintained and thaiearnestness and enthusiasm will Increaseas the campaign progresses. Republi-can victory in the Empire state thisyear would practically Bottle the presi-dential contest of next year in favor olthat party.-

democratic party urges that thiscountry ought to have reciprocity "wltlithe countries of Europe , with England.Franco and Germany but it does notsay how with btich an arrangement thegovernment would raise the revenue.'lost by the abolition or heavy reductionof customs duties on the products oithose nations. In some of the states thedemocratic platforms favor an in-

come-

tax as ono of the meansof providing revenue , and amongdemocratic leaders. Mr. Mills of Texaschampions this policy , but no such in-

quisitorial system would bo long toler-ated by the American people , and be-

sides-

it ia a very uncertain method ofobtaining revenue. The trouble withthe democratic party is , that whileithas abundant capacity for finding faultit lacks the ability to find wlsoand sound remedies for what itcomplains of. When the partyhad an opportunity to frame atariff law suited to its notions it bun-gled

¬

the business so wretchedly that thework is still remembered as a reproachto the intelligence of the men who didit. It is to have another opportunity ,and the prediction is entirely safe thatit will make just as bad u job of itsalTorts to reform the tariff as it did inthe Fiftieth and preceding congresses.-

Now York Commercial Advertiseris making war on the Pinkerton policejystom , and it is to bo hoped it will notJtop fighting until it has created a pub-lic

¬

sentiment that will compel legisla-tion

¬

in every state hostile to this privateind irresponsible constabulary. OurN"ow York contemporary pointedly says :' 'The very existence of a private organ-ization

¬

of armed men is an imputa-tion

¬

of inability upon the part ofthe people to govern themselves andnaintnin order through their lawfullyionstitutod police The logical extremejf tolerating organized force beyond theregulative power of law is the surrender) f law to forco. If more wealth , oxlst-ng

Tin : farmers' alliance of Ohio has ro-

issued by the ofllcors of the alli-nice they declare that that organization-s in no way identified with the nowlarty , and state that the proper attitudeif the alliance politically is to bo pre ¬

thu contest now going on between the trustand autl-irust watchmakers. The opposingfactions are the Elgin and Waltham compa-nies

of :.' ) uor cent on the prices , the trustpaid rebates to the Jobbers for all goods theyhad on hand thai wore affected by Iho cut ,

Dul Iho retailor.? lost money from ono cud ofthe country to the other. "Tho retailers areswearing at Iho "trust." Ono big retailstore on State street has hung out placardsannouncing a cut of BO per cent on the orig-ional

-price , which virtually gives l&o move-

ments¬

to purchasers at cost. This is thellrst instance whore a purchaser has overgained by a cut on iho part of the manufac-turer

in the watch Irade. In Cincinnati acall has boon issued for the roUllers to moatand refuse to hundlo the "trust" product. It-is said that retailers nil over the country willjoin the Ilghtacainstlhocombine. Hocarding-iho financial olToct of the big reduction it is-

case is a curious one. Sevenyears ago , while traveling in Hurklmu.rcounty , ho mot a uretly waiter girl namedHannah O'Brien , and , It is claimed , betrayedhor. Moanwhllo she entered suit againstbun and aecurod u Judgement for ? IU0.Johnson know nothing of iho sull. The girlcould not Hud him , and In course of time for-got

iho suil leo , and moved out of town.Her lawyers learned years afterwards

that Johnson was in Brooklyn , so they caino-dnwn aud throw him into the Raymondslreol Jail. Ho has been there for months-.Of

.

course ho was surprised at his arrest.That ho owed anybody $-1,000 was news to-

him. . Ho could not got out of Jail to earn ibomoney , so it looked as if ho must slay Ihoraall his life. Besides , ho was willing to marrv-llio girl , but nobody knew whore she was-

.Jounscn's.

story was printed. The girl sawit and wrote saying she was now u happywife and mother , anu so did not duro to comoto Brooklyn and help Johnson out of histrouble , although she had thu kindliest , feel-ings

-

toward him. However , after much cor-respondence

¬

, she was induced to-como. . Johnson was before JudgeClements a wcok ago on a writ ofhabeas corpus. Ho claimed thai no notice of-tbo trial In Herklmcr county had boou .servedupon him and Ho know nothing about it untilthe judgment talton by default was served ,

and ho also produced eVidunco lo show thataf lor Miss O'Briuu began suit against Himshe married and had withdrawn from theprosecution of the suit against him. But themost striking allegalion mudo by the counselfor Johnson was that Miss O'Brien had givenn satisfaction picco for the judgment she ob-tained

¬

against Johnson , and Ihoro was reallyno claim upon which Johnson could bo hold.That satisfaction piece , it was claimed , wason llllng in the clerk's ofllco in Horkimcr-county. . It was boldly assorted that Johnsonbad been arrested at the instance of someHerKlmer county lawyer , who wa > interestedin the case and who had adopted this plan to-onforca his Hen on the judgment and collecthis bill of costs.

When this phase of the case was suggestedto Judge Clements his Interest In the uialtorwas incroabcd and ho remarked ho wouldnever allow the machinery of his court to borun for such a purpose. T'tio transcript of-thu sullsfactlon piece , now on lilo in Hcrki-mor

-countywas produced In court yesterday.

The record showed that the judgment hadboon satisfied and cancelled. Johnson wasthereupon discharged.

The former Miss O.Brion. who seems tohave seriously repented the part she took incausing Johnson's arrest and incarceration ,

was in court when Johnson was released.They wont away together. It would bo dilll-cult to sav which was the happier of the two.They acted like a ecyiplo ol school childrenjust out on a long vacation.
