The Duties of'c'i‘tiv‘zeusmp.
One of the encouraging features oi.
political campaigns is the extent of
the popular interest in the issues pre-
sented, as manifested in the attend~
once not only at rallies, but at can-
cuses. Caucuses, in Massachusetts, at
least, have ceased to be excited gath-
erings. The voting booth at the can.
(ens is precisely the same as at the
election, and there are no personal
contests or altercations to disturb the
serenity of the voter while he is mak-
ing his mark. In many other states
the caucus is the same rough-and-
tumble affair it was once here in bias-
sachusetts. "here is still the exciting
possibility of a fight to stimulate the
attendance in these states. To the
caucuses in most Northern states.
however, the voters have been at-
tracted by the issues which have ex-
erted a solemnizing influence, and
nominations have been made with
deliberation. to the end that the abler
champions .‘lezlll be put in the field.
The fact that Massachusetts voters
have turned out in such great num~
hers to attend caucuses which lacked
all scenic attractions, impelled only by
a desire to put forward the man in
their judgment best calculated to rep-
resent faithfully the true interests of,
the public, is one of the most encour-
aging signs of the reviving public re-
alization of the obligations of citizen-
ship—Boston Transcript.

permitted to make this extract. “I have
no hesitation in recommending Dr. Kin g’s
New Discovery as the results were almost
marvelous in the case of my wife. While
I was pastor of the Baptist Church at
Rives Junction she was brought down
with pheumonia, succeding La Grippe.
Terrible paroxysms of coughing would
last hours with little interruption and it
seemed as if she could not survive them.
A friend recommended Dr. King’s New
Discovery; it was quick in its work and
highly satisfactory in its results.”

N EW YORK .
NEW YORK, Nov. 5. -—New York city
and state are Republican by pronounced
ma oirtles. The city gives McKinley and
Ho rt 23,000, Brooklyn and Kings coun-
ty30,000, and the up state Republicans
come down to the Harlem with more than
200,000.
Frank S. Black, the Republican candi-
date for governor, has-received a very much
larger plurality than the phenomenal one
giyen to Morton in 1894. The total veto
cast was in excess of the total for 1894,
Whefi the total was 1,275,671. That year
Morton’s plurality was 156,108, the total
vote for Morton being 873,818; for Bill,
517,710. The votes for the other candi-
,ates were as follows: Baldwin, Pro ibi-
t‘onist, 23,525; Matthews, People’s P ty,
11,049; Wheeler, Democrat, reform, 27,-
202; Matchett, Socialist-Labor. 15,868.
The returns seem to indicate that the
plurality for McKinley is in excess of 285,-
000, and that for Black in excess of 260,-
000. ”Porter and Schraub for the De 0-
crats ran a trifle ahead of the Bryan tie at
in the state. The Prohibition candidate
for governor, William W. Smith, and for
lieutenant governor, Chase Lattimer; the
ocialist-Labor party candidate for govern-
or, Howard Balkans, and for lieutenant
governor, Frederick Bennett—ran about
evenly with their national ticket, except
in their home districts, where each had a
fair complimentary vote over their associ-
ate party nominees on their party ticket.
Irving G. Van of Syracuse is elected to
succeed himself as associate judge of the
court of appeals by a plurality which is in
excess of that obtained by the head of the
Republican state ticket.
In five districts in which supreme court
judges were to be elected all are Republic-
ans.
As had been predicted «in _ these dis-
patches, the only county that went Dem-
ocratic was Schoharie. Chemung county,
which two years ago was one of two coun-
ties north of the-Harlem to give a pin-
rality to David B. Hill, has given both the
state and national ticketsa plurality.
For the assembly the latest available
corrections show that, instead of decreas-
ing the large Republican majority held in
the house last year, it has been increa ' d
by about ten, and that the Republifis
have an almost unwieldly majority. he
majority in the congressional districts
leave the delegation about the same as last
year.
The revised returns from this state for
congress show the following are elected:
Joseph M. Belford, Republican; Dennis
M. Hurley, Republican; Francis H. Wil-
son, Republican; Israel F. Fisher, Re-
publican; Charles G. Bennett, Republic-
an; James H. Howe, Republican; John
