Hancock and English

For the GAZETTE thecampaigMM over. Yesterday's issue contained the last word of admonition and of warning of argument and entreaty to the intelligent voter. Nothing that we oan say to-day can influence any one and we intend to say nothing with any object of that kind in view. The great fight is practically over and when the reader unfolds his paper this opening all the ballots will have been cast and there will be nothing beyond ascertaining what the recorded will of the people is. We are proud of our candidate for President whether he wins or loses. He is a superb specimen of manhood, mentally, morally and physically. His training has been for the most part in the army and that has been a serious objection to him—the only nerious objection that lias been raised. When Grant was exhibiting his ignorance of and disrespect for civil law it seemed the proper thing for the Democracy to select a man who did not know tiie difference between a sword and a mountain howitzer but who did know And recognize the difference between a writ of habeas carpu* and a drum-head court martial Nothing but Hancock's magnificent subordination of the military to civil law, when the pride and pomp of power strongly impelled him in another direc tion, ever reconciled us to his candidacy: and that stirred the blood and roused enthusiasm. His stainless character, his delicate sense of honor, his sturdy good sense, his lofty patriotism written with his own blood at Gettysburg -were all things that plead in his favor. We have believed that his section would reconcile all elections of our common country. We have believed that he would gather about him as cabinet officers the wisest men in the Democratic party, who would Supply any of his deficiences of knowledge of civil law. We have believed that his chief advisor would be Samuel J. Tilden, in whose ad ministrative ability we havo the most profound confidcnce. All this we believe lie will do if he is elected, aa we hope and believe he will be.

Much can be said both for and against •Tames A. Garfield. Mentally lie is the most splendid figure in the Republican party. Save some blotches, of which more later, his birth and boyhood, his early struggles, his -trials and triumphs read like an epic poem. He is the fore most orator in his party—better than Blaine. In scholarship lie is the superior of Edmunds. His private life is above reproach. His impulses are all right. There is amoral weakness though somewhere which has led him into mistakes ,the blackness of which make them con»picious against the white back ground .of his general character. He did take that DeGolyer fee which he ought not to have done, and he did take that Credit

Mobilier stock which he also ought not to have touched. At the time he did it, however the President was paying debts of relationship, of personal favors and of presents by the wholesale out ef the public patronage and men who ought to have been ashamed of themselves were justifying it on overy stump in the land and the people actually indorsed the infamy. Moral constitutions as stalwart

1

as that of Garfield were twisted into a '.f- belief that offices were for the officoV"' holders and that the man was a fool who

I did not make as mueh as possible out public position. .• Garfield did write thatiiorev letter. He may have forgotten it—we hope he had— but he wrote the letter and the sentf *1 ments, though stated in very impolitic fashion, are his. .What is more there are a half million people in the United 1

States who will vote to-day, that believe -J*** every syllable of that letter, and they will Sr •ote for Mr. Garfield.

Mr. Garfield has said that "modern

He is a member of the Cobden club and it is something to be proud of If he is elected and the Eaton bill now pending in Congress to appoint a committee of experts to examine into and revise our bunglesome and in many in stances oppressive tariff should pass, we believe be would sign the till and we know he ought to sign it.

The canvaes

If

as compelled Mr. Gar­

field to take a more pronounced position in antagonism to the South than he really holds and we have faith to believe that if elected he would delight moderate Democrats as much and disgust the sta' wart Grant-Conkling gang as much as Prest. Hayes has done. If lie would follow in the footsteps of President Hayes he might make a useful President. If lie surrenders to Grant and Conkling there are breakers ahead.

BEBCHBH and Ingersoll appeared together at a political meeting in Brooklyn, Saturday night, The New York Sun gives the following account of the meetinJS:

The combined attractions of Henry

Ward Bcecher and Robert Ingersoll was enough to fill the Academy of Music in

Brooklyn last night. Some politicians became so exci'ed over the double-headed show that after the tickets had been all distributed they went to Republican headquarters and ofi'effcd $5 apiecc for them. Many ladies wefte in attendance. When Robert Ingersoll walked down the Rtaare he was followed by the Rev. Justin D. Fulton, and in time lo start a second round of applause came Henry Ward Beecher.

Albert Daggert was called upon to preside, but he gave way to Henry Ward Beecher, who said: The man who is to speak to you to night is not to speak in a conventicle or church, but be has done valuable things for the right without variableness or shadow of turning. In the name of common humanity and true faith and true liberty, I give him the right hand of fellowship!."

Mr. Beecher turned to Mr. Ingersoll, took his hand and both bowed, while the audience applauded the tableau. Then Mr. Beechcr said that Mr. Ingersoll was the most brilliant speaker of the English tongue in any land on the globe As underneath the brilliancy of the flame were solid coals of fire, so underneath the lambent fire of his wit there were imperishable living coals of soundest truth. Mr. Robert Ingersoll felt awkward, apparently, at such a gushing stream of praise from the Plymouth pastor, and as he arose he seemed to meditate revenge. He worked his lips, wiped the beads of perspiration off his brow, and, seeming to wink at the reporters, said: The world waited thousands of years for Henry Ward Beecher, and the world will wait a long time for another." Then Mr. Ingersoll dashed off into a speech.

Later on Mr. Ingersoll, turning to .Mr. Beecher, said: I want to thank you that your intellectual horizon is large enough, your sky broad enough arid studded with stars enough to enable you to grasp the hand of a man in th^ cause of humanity, however much he disagrees with you." Upon this there was

another

great cheering.

tableau and

At

the close of the love

feast Mr. Beecher obtained a vote of thanks for Ingersoll, and Ingersoll got three cheers for Beecher.

General Hancock.

The GAZBTTE never felt prouder of its presidential candidate than it does to day. One of the most splendid characters in America to-day, as citizen, soldier and man, is Winfield Scott Hancock. Had the election occurred Bix weeks ago, he would have been clected. He is beaten, but there is no stain on his escutchcon. He was stronger than the Democratic party and the defeat is rather of the party than of him. He has made no mistakes From the hour of his nomination until now he has borne himself like *1 statesman and a gentleman. His letter accepting the nomination was a superb document. His letter to Mr. Cooke on Southern claims and to Senator Randolph on the tariff were manly, dignified, true And right. The silent contempt with which he treated the black guardism of the Grant-Fowler interview was right and pro per. The onlyfoolish thin attributed lo him was reported express ions of his opinion on the tariff which some blundering reporter put in his mouth, and the result of an interview which he incorrectly chronicled. This the reporter stated afterwards but there was not a Republican paper in the land which had the manhood to correct the report or which did not continue to make capital out of what it knew to be false. All through the fight, under caricature and lAisrepresentation, he has carried himself as he did at Gettysburg. Shot and shell have not moved him or destroyed his intrepidity. He comes out of the canvass as stainless at he went in. His word is as good as his word. He has had a devoted following and he has been a gallant leader. He can have nothing to regret in his conduct and his party followers can raise no just com plaint against him. He has been beaten but not disgraced. He is as sound a Democrat to-day, with some few thousand more dissenting from than agreeing with his opinions, as he would have been if the result had been different

His followers have not changed their views. They were Democrats because they believed the principles of that party wore ri^htf and right or wrong or bad, just or unjust as questions of principle or conviction are not things

scholarship is All in favor of free trade' [depending on whether few or many beand he is right. It is. He has said tba jjeve this or that. Hancock and De"nothing can be said against the abst.-ac^ mocracv afe warmer friends than' eve doctrine of free trade," and he is right before. This is not so with Democracy Nothing can be said against it and English.

XKW YORK, Nov. 8 1. A.*M. Advices received by the Democratic National Committee up to this hour 11:30 r. M. indicate that in addition to all the Southern states Hancock has carried New Jersey, Nevada and California. The results in New Yoik and Connecticut are comparatively close. Sufficient information has not been received to render the result certain. The returns from the interior of the state uo not indicate any materal decrease in the vote of 1978. I the city of New York the official reports from police headquarters are 15,000 less than received direct from the election districts. By the offlcit.1 returns Hancock's 3 majority in flew York City beabout 40,000 This with 15,000 in Kings and 4,000 in Queens, Richmond, and Suffolk makes a majority of 60,000 in the lower Counties against a majority in the same region in 1876 of72,994 In 1876, Tilden's majority in he state was 33,000. all owing the Republican cl ains as to New York city it will be still necessary for them to gain 21,000 votes in order to carry the state. The Republicans have gained heavily in Erie, Rensaler and Dutchese Co's. but lost in Albany and the agricultural regions of thej interior as well as some of the largest manufacturing towns There is no new information to war tant the supposition that the najority of 70 has been ove vercome The Nafhional Democratic Com mittee will m«ke proper announcement as soon as su fflcient returns are read The majority shown by the returns tonight cannot be overcome by any honest count of the votes cast to day and any fraud which has been or may be attempted will be resisted to the last extremity. Tlie^buerau of elections, where returns are handled, is under the charge of John J.

OBrien an unsciupulous Republican partisan and a special intimate of John C. Davenport. The returns have to 'be fullvexamined an tlieresult decidod by the board of aldermen of the city which is Democratic can a fair canvass show is that a majority of the voters of the state of New York to-day voted for the Democratic electors you can rely upon it that the electoral vote will be cast and duly certified to Congress for Hancock and English. The latest reports received indicate a Democratic majority of about 5,000 even allowing the vote of New York city as claimed by the Republicans. You can rely upon it that there will be no faltering with the situation but prompt from the decisive action by the National Democratic Committee and the Democratic electors of the state. The Democratic state Committee report as follows ji sufficient to determine the exact result but indications point to a handsome Democratic victory in tlifi state.

But for losses in the 5th ward the total Democratic vote would have been slightly larger than in October.

there will a Republican gain of one Congressman. CHICAQO.NOV. 5.—The excitement is intenso in the city. At midnight a procession formed in an irregular manner and began marchipg about the streets, gathering numbers at every street corner, until the procession became the largest ever seen here, estimated as high fifty thousand. They secured bands, fire works, transparencies, and are still marching in the early morning hours to the music of artillery.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.—At 1:15 A?M. there is much uncertainty as to the exact majority in the city. It is not likely to fall below 5,000, and may exceed 7,000. Over one hundred precincts arc heard from, but some confusion has arisen, which makes it impossible to give correct figures which they nhow.

CHICAGO, NOV. 3.—3:S0 A. M.—Returns from 273 towns outside of Chicago shows a net Republican gain in Illinois of2,567. There is very little variation in the figures for the other candidates. At this rate of increase it is probable that the state will give 35,000 or more.

CHICAGO, Nov. 3.—Returns from the city complete give tho total vote over 81,000, of which (Jarfield had 42,484, Hancock, 37,713 Republican majority, 4.771. In tho county Garfield had 54,312 Hancock, 43,572 Republican majority, 10,740. This is a Republican gain in the county of over 11,000, compared with the election of 1876, and a Repub lican gain (K about 10,000 in the city. The vote iu both city and county was the largest by five thousand ever cast. Weaver's vote was insignificant.

Returns for Congressmen are some wh'icli scealy but it is likely that Farewell and Aldrieh will have majorities approaching five thousand and Davis will have from one to two thousand. Noth in£ more definite as to Congressional delegation of the state, but the Repub* licans have gained one certainly and possibly three.

IOWA.

CHICAGO, NOV. 2,—Scattering returns from Iowa show a net Republican gain over the vote for Governor in 1879 of about 15 precinct.

If this rate holds good in the state Gar fields plurality over Hancocks will be 88892.

DKS MOINKS, NOV. S.—Twentyprecincts in Polk, Dallas, Madison, Adair, Guthrie^ Warren, Wapello, Wahaska, Marshall and Webster counties, casting last year 8,868 rotes, or about three per cent of the •ote of the entire state, show a net Republican gain of 663. A clear majority of 40,000 over all opposition, is a moderate estimate, and 75,000 majority over Hancock a safe estimate also. Indications now point to the election of John A. Kasson, in the Seventh district, by some 40,000 majority. Later returns are not so favorable to Cults, Republican, for Con gress in the Sixth district.

CHICAOO, Nov. 2, 2:30 A. M.—One hundred and fifteen towns in Iowa—Republi* can net gain of 3,392 26 additional towns show a Republican majority of 3,506.

DCBTJQUE, Nov. 2.—Returns indicate the election of Updcgraff for Congress in this dis".rict by 1,700 a large Republican gain.

CHICAGO, Nov. 2.—Thirty precincts in various parts of Northern Iowa show a net Republican gain of 1,025 over the vote of 1875. These precincts cast not quite five per cent, of the vote of the state. Similar gains throughout the State will give from 45,000 to 50,000 Republican majority over both Hancock and Weaver. Twenty-three other precincta give a net gain of 425.

PENNSYLVANIA

EBIB, PA., Oct 3.—Watson. Republican candidate for Congress, will have abont 24200 majority in this county and nearly or quite 8,000 in the district. The Republicans will elect all the legislative candidates in the county by the usual large majorities, but lose Jareck, the present incumbent in the city district, by a Democrat!* majority of about 100. The national and state ticket will have about 8,000 Republican majority la the county.
