ee NEW YORK'S NEXT MAYOR, {~ All But Few of the National. Committee Favor George. | Adherence to the Principles Set Forth in the | Chicago Platform the Only Test of True | Democracy—Tammany’s Candidate Char- | acterized as the Representative of Corrupt | Organization. | New York, October 7.--Hevry| George’s claim that heis the regular | dewocratie candidate for Mayor of | New York has called forth expres-| sors from members of the Demo-} cratic National committee. William | H White, member for Washington, telegraphed to Henry George: “In the movement you are the representative of Jeffersonian Demo- cracy. Your election a3 Mayor of Greater New York will bring assur ance to the democracy of the West and South.” Other expressions from Demo- cratic National committeemen are as follows: W. H. Holliday of Indiana: “Democrats throughout the country, I believe, regard the result of the pending campaign in Greater New York as being of such national siy- nificance that it will affect the democratic party for good or ill in the campaign of 1900. If I am per- mitted the opinion, no democratic faction in any state in the Union will change the purpose of the democratic party as set forth in the Chicago plutform. The party in New York that accepts the Chicago platform ought to bave the support of ull democrats ” Thomas C. McRea of Arkansas: “The Chicago platform is the latest authentic declaration of democratic faith, and I believe it is the duty of all democrats to support candidates whe stand upon it ia preference to those who ignore it ” J. M Head of Teunessee: “I cer tainly believe that the compliance with the Chicago platform should be insisted upon. Any organization claming to be demceratic whieb absolutely refuses to indorsa the national platform has no claim what ever upon ths eupport of local democrats.” Jobn Gilbert Shanklin of Indiana: “Were Lin New York I should sup port Henry George, because he is th» only exponent among the candi dates for Mayor of the principles decided at the Chicago convention, absolute loyalty to which is the test of true democracy.” James G. Dudley, of Texas: “The democrats who fought the battle of 1896 should insist that the support of the Chicago platform and its nominees should ba the test ” Geo. A. Ainsiey of Idaho: “Every democrat in New York should sup- port Henry George. A candidate who does not stand up for or indorse the Chicago plattorm has no claim to democratic suppcrt ” J H. Townsend of Oregon: “1 b-lieve the Chicago platform repre sents the principles of the democratic party and know of no reason why any organization other than a nation al couvention should presume to enunciate the principles of the party.” Benjamin f. Tillman of South Carolina: “The political ci:uatiou in New York city is most interesting aud cf natioual importance. The result will show whether there are patriotism and manhood enough in people to give themselves honest government and save themselves from slavery to money.” True L. Morris uf New Hampshire, Frank Campbell of New York, John J McHatttan of Montana, Bradley F. Smalley of Vermont acd J.

Paris, Oct. 7.—The Indian govein ment, in reply to a further pressing invitation by the English Cabinet to consider Senator Wolcott's propos- als, has answered that it can not reopen the question of the Indian currency, and it will not be a party to the re-opening of the mints for the free coinage of silver.
