Vice ex-President Morton, of New York, will not be able to climb the Hill between himself and Albany. In the recent frosts, that have knocked the foliage into "the sere and yellow leaf," let ihe candidates of our friends the enemy behold their fate. But a week ago the republicans of New York entered buoyantly upon what they considered the holiday task of electing ex-Vice President Morton to the governorship. The ïiomination of Senator Hill has knocked the holiday idea into smithereens, and they see before them one of the most desperate and doubtful campaigns that they ever entered upon. The president has appointed Gen. W. W. Duffield, of Detroit, to be Superintendent of the Coast and Geodetic Survey, in place of Pref. T. C. Mendenhall, resigned. The salary is $6,000. Gen. Duffield was in both the Mexican war and the war of the rebellion and was wounded in both wars. He has earned his promotion. If the Register states truly, every democrat who has something uncomplimentary to say of his party, forthwith borrows the ear of the Register and shouts into it with the jjreatest confidence. Now the 1 things alleged to have been spoken in the Register's ear have not been spoken there, although'it is a capacious receiver. The Register has the night-horse. There are no grumbling democrats. With the nomination of Mr. Walter H. Dancer for representative in the state legislature, the list of candidates for thesuffrages of the democrats of Washtenaw is completed. From governor down it is a strong ticket and deserving the support of every democrat. Seldom if ever has the party presented a cleaner, abler or more acceptable list of candidates for the suffragesof the people. No democrat who desires to vote for the best men need look beyond the list of his own party candidates. The nominees are thoroughly representative and inspire confidence and beget enthusiasm. With such a ticket the democracy will present a united front to the enemy and the campaign from now on to the ides of November will be aggressive and of the hue that means victory. When Cleveland left the presidency in 1879, he turned over to Mr. Harrison #330,348,716.12. He returned to the presidential office in 1893 and found #167,854,995.34 less in the treasury than he left there. Of what remained in the treasury $100,000,000 was gold reserve. Another large sum agency accounts leaving.according to Secretary Foster, a cash balance in the treasury of but #24,128,087.88 and of this amount #11,497,829.74 were nickels, dimes, etc. The enormous surplus was expended by the Harrison administration on the billion dollar congress, in the purchase of bonds at a premium, in draw-backs and general extravagance. This, with the silver make shift, alarmed capital, brought our securities home, and sent more than #157,000,000 in gold across the ocean and laid the foundation for the panic. Thus is responsibility for the great panic shown to rest upon the republican party.
