Hence Com- | mitteeman Quincy has gone back to Maseachu- democratic fight in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. ‘The republican majority in New Hampshire is always small, though it has always been con- sidered a fairly safe one. But with only a hundred votes to overcome to change the sta to the democratic col the leaders here think it well worth the effort. In Massachusetts there are some new elements in the situation. Heretofore persons who had not paid their poll taxes were not allowed to vote. The result was that the party leaders have been in habit of paying the poll tax of thonsands thousands of voters and then claiming and gotting their votes. But thix year it will be different, The law prohibiting voters from exercising the right of suffrage until they have paid their poll tax has been repealed, and this year, for the first time, every man in Mas- sachusetis will bo able to vote just a4 he plesees without being under any obligations to any- body. it is estimated that the parties have hereto- | fore spent €25,000 in paying poll taxes for | voters, who knew that they had onty to wait un- | til the last days before the registration season | and this would be done for them. This money can now be used for other purposes. Another cause that leads the democrats to hope for an unusually strong vote in the New England and middle states is the fact that the secret ballot, based on the Australian system, will prevail in nearly all these states this time for the first time in a presidential campaign. ‘These middle and New England states have a very largo vote made up of employes of the manufactories. The manufacturers generally are republicans, They are naturally for pre tective tariff. which reduces the Competition | that they would have to feel abroad if it were not for it. So they have heretofore influenced their employes to vote for republican eandi- | dates on national issues, Many of the em- ployer, democrats claim, are at heart in favoref alow tariff, because they believe it will | cheapen the things they have to buy, such as | clothing and other articles of this class. So it | is claimed by democrats that many men who voted to suit their cmployers before, when there was no secret ballot, will this time vote to suit themselves, ‘Things are beginning to move with « little ‘stem at the political headquarters here. ‘ious peoplo have got hold of the threads they are to hold and the machine begi | move. One interesting feature of thi | cratic headquarters is the method of giving out news to the press. Mr. John Tracy, « brother of Congressman Tracy, is in charge of thi | work. He has a handsome big room on the | first floor of the democratic headquarters build- fitted up with plenty of tables for the newspaper people who call; a typewriter and stenographer who writes ont the bits of news which are prepared for the hungry newspaper men, Mauifold copice of these aro mado ead every fellow who comes goes away satisfied that he has just what everybody else One seo familiar faces in this press room every day. | leries; the yonnger of the Crawford brothers, who were eo long in newspaper work ther Earlie, Matthews and othera, NEW YORK'S DEMOCRACY NOT THOROUGHLY AROUSED. Not even the hot weather can quiet the ardor of the politicians here. The amount of active work that is going on in New York and the adjoining cities these hot days and nights is something astonishing. While statesmen and leading politicians are declaring the wenther is toohotfor political work, and while business at the campaign headquarters seems to drag, the amoun: of enthusiastic work being done at ward and assembly district meetings is quite aston- ishing. No night is too hot for these gatherings of the faithfal in either part though it is quite apparent to the unprej- udiced observer that the republicans are more active than the democrats. Ey enin there are meetings for organizations, ani specches. illustrated addresses, bannor raisings | and all this sort of thing are the order of the | occasion. Volitical elubs, cam marching clubs aud anything an y touweken enthusiasm and cheer the heart of the voter are put into requi | is evident that no stone is to be left unturn here or elsewhere, and that the voter who es- lauce of those who take upon welves the burden of getting all the voters will have to be very wary. Whether fact that the republicans are more active than the democrats in this carly works means that the rank and file of the de- mocracy are not going earnestly into the fight cannot yet be told. It is quite evident, how- ever, that here in New York city the average democratic voter has not got waked up as thor- | oughly as the average republican. It is appar- | ent in the conversation which one hears among | the average Luriness men, clerks and trades | people. {am boarding in a house full of demo- erate,” said a young man of my acquaintance in talking of this t» your correspondent, “and Ifind that they are yet very cold toward the stea of their ‘party.
