ISPrCIAL TELEGBJLM TO THE DISPATCH.l
New Yokk, 2"ov. 25. In most of the
Ptatn the campaign of 1891 closed on
flection day, Xoveniber 4, but not so in
w York. It is since that date that the
most bitter contest has been carried on, and
the end is not yet. The struggle is for the
Legislature of the Empire State. For
j ears, no matter who elected the Governor
or other officers, the Republicans have
managed to retain control of one or both
branches of the Legislature. Last year the
Dpmocrats had a majority on joint ballot,
but the Republicans held the Senate, and
of course were able to shelve all objection
able party measures.
If the Democrats had a majority in each
branch they would at once proceed to make
changes of national importance. The State
would be redistrictcd for Congressmen and
Legislators in a manner that would insure
Democratic majorities in the future, and a
Democratic successor to Senator Hiscock.
An immense amount of State patronage
would be secured, and to crown all, changes
in the election laws would be made, which
would make it practically impossible for
the Republicans to carry the State, even in
a Presidental year.
Deipcrate Methods Employed.
These are the prizes at stake. The dav
after election, in the face of the returns,
the Assembly was seen to be very close, but
slightly Democratic. By the returns as
handed to the County Clerks of the State by
the Inspectors of Election, the Republicans
had elected 17 and the Democrats 14 Sena
tors, while one J. F. Edwards of the
Thirty-second district was an independent,
supported'and voted for by independent
Republicans and Democrats. Under orders
from Governor Hill and the advice of Dpe
uty Attorney Geneml Isaac H. Maynard,
proceedings were at once begun in several
Senate districts to throw aside the will of
the people and to permit the Democrats to
steal a sufficient number of votes to insure
to them control of the upper body of the
Legislature.
For two weeks several Senate districts
were so beclouded by the contests of both
parties, by the unlawful proceedings of
Boards of County Canvassers, by the issue
of writs of mandamus, and by the revolu
tionary proceedings of the Boards of Can
vassers in refusing to acknowledge the
power of the Supreme Court, that even the
best-informed politicians of either party
were unable to form an idea as to which party
would organize the Legislature. The Dem
ocrats, however, inspired by advice and en
couragement from Albany, from the outset
claimed both branches, and predicted and
threatened that they would organize them.
Governor Hill at work.
On the face of the returns the Republi
cans have certainly elected 16 members,
counting Dr. Edwards with them. Seven
teen votes control. Governor Hill can rely
upon 14 votes, honestly elected. To secure
his plans it will be necessary for him to get
two more in order to tie the Senate and give
Lieutenant Governor Sheehan the deciding
vote in that body. He gave orders to steal
one district, Senator Deane's, and he will
take his chances on the courts giving the
Democrats another, Sherwood's, district.
One more theft would give him an exact
majority.
It is possible that the courts will decide
that Franklin D- Sherwood, Republican,
elected as the successor of J. Sloat Fassett,
is ineligible on the ground that he was an
officer of the Citv of Horncllsville within
100 days of the election, in violation of the
Constitution; for the Attorney General, in
a written opinion, declared him to be in
eligible, and copies of that opinion were
posted throughout the district.
There was curious figuring done in
Dutchess countv. The returns electing
Osborne from tiiat district now filed with
the Secretary of State are suspicious on their
face. Flower, ho ran ahead all over the
State, is given but 8,409 votes, while
Osborne for Senator is credited with 8,4G2.
Fassett has 8,334 and Deane.for Senator.but
8,278, while the blank votes for Senator
reach the unusual total of 183 and but 79
blanks are reported for Governor. This
equals on its face anything ever achieved in
the" palmiest days of either Albany or
Rensselaer county.
Republicans Denounce the Scheme.
"If the people of New York will submit
to the Dutchess county outrage liberty of
the ballot is at an end," said Cornelius 2f.
Bliss. "It is the result of a conspiracy
which would justify revolution. It is use
less to talk of amendments of the'ballot
laws, when men could be found who openly
and in defiance of law and public opinion,
and in obedience to the orders of a Governor
who is a disgrace to the State, will steal a
Legislature. Democrats and Republicans
are alike interested to prevent the crime
from being consummated. If such a crime
can be successfully perpetrated our liberties
are in danger."
Ex-Congressman George "West expressed
his disbelief in the possibility that any such
fraud as that attempted in Dutchess county
would be tamely submitted to by the
people. "It is not the first time that the
decision of the people has been reversed bv
Democratic trickery in this State," said Mr.
"West, "but the chickens are sure to come
home to roost. In 1&82 I was counted out
alter I had been fairly elected to
Congress by the Republicans, and the
feat was given to Edward "Wemple,
the present State Controller. Two years
later I was renominated against my ex
pressed wishes, but my friends were deter
mined that the wrong should be righted,
and I beat Mr. "Wemple by 1,800 majority.
I know Governor Hill well served with him
in the Assembly in 1872 and I would like
to say to him that he is attempting too
much. He has not got the Senate yet, and
he will not get it either. He will find that
there is such a thing as law in this cbuntry,
and judges who dare enforce it. Mr. Hill
has many obstacles to overcome before he
can have everything his own way at Al
bany." Some Remarkable Ketnrns.
To-day there was made, public here by
Secretary of State Rice the remarkable
election returns sent by the Democratic
Board of Supervisors of Duchess count-.
As is well known, Mr. Hill dispatched
Deputv Attorney General Maynard to
Foughkeepsie to instruct that board as to
the ways and means of increasing the os
tensible vote for Osborne, the Democratic
candidate lor Senator, and to diminish
that cast for Gilbert A. Deane, the Re
publican candidate. The election returns
stated that Mr. Deane had 83 plurality
in the Senate district, composed of 'the
counties of Dutchess, Columbia and Put
nam, In Dutchess countv, before Mr. Hill
began his manipulation, the election returns
Mated that Mr. Osborne had a plurality of
43 votes. When Mr. Hill completed "his
manipulation jctterday a plurality had
been manufactured for Osborne amounting
to 184. A sufficiently large plurality was
thus created for Osborne to surpass the plu
ralities of Mr. Deane in Columbia and Put
nam counties.
It is a sufficient indictment of this forged
plurality to say that one of its most scandal
ous features was the discarding of 31 Re
publican ballots cast for Mr. Deane because
some printers' leads had become displaced,
and thus the ballots were slightly marked
with ink. This fault of the printer, for
which, surely, the voters ought not to be
held responsible, is made the baftis of trans
ferring the certificate of election to Mr. Os
borne. .
The Democratic Position.
The Democratic justification for these
revolutionary acts may be found in the fol
lowing extracts from an editorial in to
day's ifew York World:
The Constitution of the State of New York
prescribes, in article 3. section 4. that: "An
enumeration of the inhabitants of the State
shall be taken, under the direction of the
Legislatme, in the year 1S8S, and at the end
of every ten years thereafter." This man
date, incorporated In the Constitution to se
cure equal representation of the people in
the Legislature, has been defied and disre
garded for the past six years. The enumera
tion 'lueln 1885 was not made. The Legisla
ture insisted upon a complete and costly
census. The Governor, a part of the law
making power, maintained that a simple
"enumeration of the inhabitants," as re
quired by the Constitution, was sufficient.
But the mandate stood. The.obligation was
a continuing one.
Yet year after vear Republican Legisla
tures neglected to'perform ther duty. Last
winter the Domoerattc Assembly passed an
enumeration bill so fair that even partisan
criticism was silent before it. It was suf
fered to die in the Senate. The higher Legls-
ittm u iiouy trampled upon me uonsumnuu
and denied justice to the people.
The Constitution of the State, in article 3,
sections 4 and 5, decrees that "the said dis
trict! shall be so altered by the Legislature,
at the first session after the return of every
enumeration, that each Senatorial district
shall contain, as nearly as may be, an equal
number of inhabitants. The members of
Assembly shall be apportioned among the
several counties of the State by the Legisla
ture, as nearly as may be, according to the
number of their respective inhabitants."
The State lias not been reapportioned
since 1875. As a consequence, 1,300,
000 of the inhabitants are without rep
resentation in the law-making and tax-rating
body. "Taxation without representa
tion is tvrannv" as much now as it was in
1770. The nuliiry a provision of the Consti
tution in order to prolong minority rule Is
treason to the republican principle of gov
ernment. Such are the claims of the two parties.
The importance of the issue can be Been.
The final outcome is still in doubt.

ists. It was intended at first to have a
grand street parade and other exercises
on the 5th of October, but the financially
embarrassed condition of many of the
would-be celebrants, on account of the
strikes in the building trades at the time,
made it necessary to postpone the event un

speech making, music and a general social
good time. Mayor Gourley was to have
been one of the speakers, but he will be un
able to attend. City Attorney Elphinstone

through their teacher, Miss Reels, of a poor
old woman, named Mary Nolan, living in
Sawmill alley, who was in extremely desti
tute circumstances. One of the little girls
announced her intention to take to the
old lady a basket of food. The other
scholars quickly fell in with the idea, and
yesterday afternoon nine little girls, each
armed with a big basket filled with all sorts
of eatables, from roast turkey to mince pie,
made a descent upon Mrs. Nolan. The old
woman was, ofconrse, taken completely by
surprise and could only say, with tears in
her eyes: "God bless you little girls. I
thought that I should have little to be
thankful for to-morrow, but it will now be
a happy day for me."

KEWSI NOTES FEOJt JJEAEBI T0WKS
Altooka, Nov. 25. Last week one
evening during the absence of Mr. C. T.
Holsinger, who lives near Ore Hill.hiswife,
who was alone with her three children,
noticed a man standing in the road in front
of the house, but, supposing it to be some
person passing by, she paid no further at
tention to him until she Baw him in the yard
behind the house; but, supposing it was
some neighbor on an errand, she lit a lamp
and seated herself at a table.
She was, however, soon surprised to
notice a man looking in at the window, yet
she supposed that some neighbor, perhaps
was looking in to see if her husband was at
home, and as the man disappeared she re
snmed her work. But soon after the man"
appeared again, gazed in at the window for
a moment and disappeared. Thethonght that
some villian might have known that they
had $1,000 in the house with which to make
a payment on farm recently purchased now
terrified her. Alone with three small
children, about one-eighth of a mile from her
nearest neighbor, what to do she knew not.
Again the face appeared at the window,
and by pushing the lamp up close to it she
noticed that the man was masked and that a
revolver gleamed from his coat pocket. She
hurriedly caught np her two smallest
children, and, followed by the oldest,
slipped out of a back door and ran to her
nearest neighbor, James McGregor, and
notified him of what had happened.
Mr. McGregor, with Mr. Holsinger,
a young school teacher, hurried to the
scene of the trouble, and on their way
met Mr. Holsinger, who was on his way
home. The three searched the house, but
found no one in it, but upon investigating
if anything was missing, they found that a
trunk in which 5600 was kept had been ran
sacked. Fortunately the thief, in his hurry, failed
to find the money, it having been hid in
some clothing. Four hundred dollars more
was undisturbed in another part of the
house. Mm. Holsinger is now confined to
her bed as a result of the shock. The
would-be thief was evidently some person
who knew considerable of Mr. Holsinger'a
business affairs.
A Dangerous 'Wild Animal at Large.
Alliance, Nov. 25. Serial Farm
ers and hunters for miles south of this city,
are considerably exercised over the depre

succeeded in getting a shot at it. Yester
day a party of men were organized in the

the woods where it was expected to be, ac
companied by a number of dogs. The dogs
found the beast but it tore three of them to
pieces and wounded others. It is still at
large.

DISPATCH, THURSDAY,
POSTPONED FOR A WEEK.
J. V. Witherow & Co.s Creditors Want to
Know 3Iore About the Assets A Pour
Tears' stay Asked.
The creditors of J. P. Withjrow & Co.
met in the Lewis Block yesterday to con
sider a proposition of extending the time
for four years. The decision was post
poned until next "Wednesday, and in the
meantime a committee appointed will
examine the books and determine
the assets to their satisfaction.
Mr. King, of Jones & Laughlins, pre
sided. The company has aboat 100 creditors,
and fully 75 were present D. T. Watson,
the attornev for Mr. Witherow.was on hand.
A statement was read showing that the
firm's debts amount to $273,225 63, and the
assets were estimated at $669,744 55. The
company asked for afour-year extension, with
six per cent interest, one fourth to be paid
annually. The creditors were favorably
disposed, but it was deemed best to appoint
a committee of their own to determine
whether the assests are correct or not.
Those appointed were Mr. King, D. M
Atwood, of Atwood & McCaffrey, Denny
McKnight and George B. Berger, of
Ramlv & Bereer. New Castle.
After the meeting Receiver Thompson
said Charles J. Lockhart held a first mort
gage for $75,000 against the company. This
is not included in the liabilities given. He
stated that the mortgage would also have to
be extended, or the creditors wouldn't be
satisfied. He considers the New Castle
plant a very valuable piece of prop
erty. He is running part of it
to fill the contracts on hand. When he took
hold Mr. Witherow owed his men $14,000.
This snm has been paid. He thinks if the
company were properly managed that it
could pay its debts in four years.
George L. Reis and E. C. Darlcy, the
Southern representative, returned to Ken
tucky last evening. Mr. Reis
said that if Mr. Witherow's statement
had been 'properly prepared that every cred
itor present would have signed the papers
and the company could have resumed opera
tions at once. He thinks that everything
will be straightened out at the meeting in,
the Monongahela House next Wednesday.
Mr. Witherow claims if he is given the
time he will be able to pay his debts dollar
for dollar.
FAITH IN PEIHCETON.
Tale Men Expect to See an Exciting Strug
gle in New Tork To-Day.
The New York trains on the Pennsylvania
road were crowded again last evening with
people going to see the football game.
Half of the delegation were Prince
ton men, and the talk was not so
strong in favor of Yale as on the
evening before. R. V. Messier, a Yale
man, said that the game would not be as
one-sided as people expect He had been
watching the papers and college periodicals
closely, and he thinks Princeton will give
Yale a close fight. Harvard, he said, made
a great mistake in not adopting Yale's style
of team work. Princeton has Deen playing
after the Yale pattern, and the Jersey fel
lows are posted on all the tricks.
In the crowd on the train were Captain E.
Y. Breck, William Scott, Charles H. Mc
Kee, Superintendent A. B. Starr, of the Ft
Wayne road; Commercial Agent Mathews,
of the Chicago, Burlington and Quincy
road; W. M. Clarke, of the Missouri Pacific;

HI II BABGAIN DAY
IT'LL BE; TOO.
Yes, Thanksgiving, with all its happy, loving and time-
honored associations, is upon us once more ; the festive turkey,
succulent oysters, cranberry sauce 'and life-preserving mince pies,
with other such harmless delicacies, will get their work in nobly
to-day, for which we will have good cause to be thankful or
otherwise to-morrow we expect it'll be mostly otherwise, though.
Then we're all thankful for the bounteous harvests, our granaries
are full to overflowing, our oil wells are running over, and
natural gas is more plentiful than ever in the bowels of the
earth. And all the citizens for a couple of hundred miles
around are abounding in thankfulness that Danziger's Friday
Bargain Day is a firm and fixed institution of the most Glorious
Republic on Earth ! This Friday we'll lay before you a regular
Thanksgiving Feast of Bargains that- cannot fail to be appre
ciated and thoroughly digested by thousands of participators.
