It was none other than the iflus- | trious organizer of the “P. F. 0.

DEMOCRATIC RAIDS IN THE WEST. On the other hand, the democrats are prepar- ing to make raids on a number of states which have been for yearsin the republican column. They are quite hopeful of carrying TWinets end are not ‘withoat’s reasonable’ de gree, of also understood that they intepd to makea hard fight for New Ham . Wi in and Minnesota they will also make tremendous efforts, particularly in the first-named etate. WHERE WILL BE THE NARDEST FIGHTING. Of course the hardest fighting will be done in New York and Indians, yet there will be « score of other states in which the fight will be pushed more vi than in an} cy ee able to carry tstate. These advices indicate that from 50,000 to 75,000 votes, which were formerly cast for demooratic electors, will this time be given to the alliance or third party ticket. On the whole this new developmentin the y of fighting in new ground promises more the democrats than to the republicans. There is @ larger number of formerly republican states which are now in the doubtful column an there are of the formerly domocratic states now classed as doubtful. ference between the republican and democratic situa- tion is that the republicans have got to ficht to retain their hold upon nearly a dozen. states they are dofeated by the Alliance in certain southern states they are sure to win if that merely results in throwing the election into the House, Hence they are not under such stress of spreading out | their forces in self protection as are repabli- cans, and they can go into the fight in republi- cam states he more easily. i course the great battle ground will beright here in New York state. And up to this time the democrats are showing more cordial co- — 80 far ap relates to the leaders.

This would seem to indicate that amon; massea the republicans have a decided advan- tage in the matter of enthusiasm, while on the other hand the democratic leaders are showing more of a disposition to get together than is the case with the republicans. AN ACTIVE DAY FOR CAMPAIGN MANAGERS. Today has been one of unusual activity at both headquarters, Nearly all the members of the democratic campaign committee are here and consultations are in progress on the ques- tion, what shall be done in the way of attempt- ing to carry certain western states which Dickinson, Cable and others from the wost consider doubtful? Both Dickinson and Cable urge the import- ance of activity in those states as important to take republican attention in that direction and revent concentration on two or three states. , they believe the chances of carrying Illinois and Wisconsin good. Ex-Chairman Cam} does not agree with this, He says linols, Wisconsin and Indiana will be assuredly in the republican column. At republican headquarters there was a con- saltation held between Whitelaw Reid, Chair- man Carter, Hahn of Obio and others. The committee will accede to some of the plans of the southern republicans, and make an attempt to secure votes of certain southern states.
