Chairman Neater Congratulates the Democracy. York, Nov. 11, 1892. Felknc Democrats Even before the smoke of battle has yet cleared away, I hasten to rejoice and jubilate with the triumphant Democracy over the succession of overwhelming and brilliant victories we have secured throughout the States of this great Union. Our victorious legions have everywhere been successful, sweeping all opposition to the march of reform be.

fore them like a tornado, and the grand old and unsullied banner of Democracy waves in triumph over the enemy's strongholds. From eve.rv vallev and nlain. nomos 7 the shouts of victory which are echoed 1 and re-echoed from mountain top to mountain top, where our valiant soldiers give vent to their rejoicing in the fervor and spirit of their patriotic enthusiasm. was victory more complete or de feat to an exultant and defiant foe more crusl ingcr humiliating. Cleveland and btevenson, the champions of the people, nonesi, economical government and industrial liberty, have swept the country from ocean to ocean and from the lakes to the gulf.

California at the Pacific's Golden Gate, has joined New York, her sister State, while Wisconsin, bordering on the Lakes, greets the thunder from the Southern States, and all with united strength have Cleveland back to Washington sent. We have abundant reason for rejoicing over Tuesday's conflict, and its resultant conquest, for it places the control of the general government in safe hands, and insures to a classes of citizens equal rights, with special benefits to no class interest. No manu'aoturers' fat contributed to our success, but the victory was obtained by the people over the most flagrant prostitution of the ballot and the debauchery of voters. Not only have we reason to jubilate over the splendid results ia the nation, but here in our county where the tricky enemy attempted to break our lines and defeat a portion of our county ticket, he was foiled in his attempts and he and his abetrors routed and overthrown. Our entiro county ticket is elected by a handsome majority, that of Cleveland and Stevenson reaching over four thousand.

This victory is so overwhelming as to call for a general exaltation and jubilation in a public deraonstration.and therefore, as Chairman of the Democratic County Committee, I have set Tuesday evening next as the occasion for such celebration on the part of the triumphant Democracy and the people who assisted in obtaining this unexampled victory Lt us make this demonstration overwhelming in its character and one that will correspond in the magnitude of numbers and in the spirit of such true Democratic enthusiasm, as will fittingly correspond with the glorious victory achieved. Let it be celebrated with 'The rockets red glare aud bombs bursting In air; and snow to the enemy that our flag Is still there." Let every Democrat be in line and evr ry Democratic household turn on the lijjhi. of jubilee, for wo have gceat cause to rejoice and bo glad. In conclusion, permit me to return my hearty thanks to all the members of the CuntvCommittee and to all the valiant, triedrue and unflinching Democracy, who like the Old Guard, stood firm as a rock in the contest in this county and scored a great victory. With the exhibition of such loyalty to Democratic principles and Democratic nominees.as manifested Itself in this county in Tuesday's contest, we have no reason to fear defeat, but can always be assured of victory perching upon oar banner.

Thanking one and all for their assistance to me in my official duties, I am, Respectfully Yours, Henry Neater, It Chairman.

John had been tricked and he felt badly. Ward Detectives Colby and Lyons were standing at Cortland and Liberty streets about ten o'clock tonight when a strange little figure appmred.

The figure was John. Jobn was neatly dressed in a mixed suit of tweed, and a little round cap, perched rakishly on one side of his head. Slung across his shoulder was a russet leather travelling bag. A Flobert rifle and an umbrel a strapped together rested over tho othr shoulder. The detectives had no time to recover from their surprise at the apparition when John halted in front of them, grounded arms.hitched his travel ling bag around, and spoke with a con fident air: "Say, cully, I'm a drop fresh in dese pastures, and I'll tank yer for a tip on the dead.

When they were able to speak, Colby volunteered in the most frigid faohion to find the young man a comfortable lodge house. Detective Lyons wanud to carry the rifle, but John refused to give it up. It was not until the procession baited in front of the sera-eant at the desk of the police station that John realized the lodging house was not the one he would have selected himself.

Then he gave vent to bis disgust in nicturesoue and vigorous language. "I'm dead slow.II am. Whv tho blood ell did not light on to youso for fly copa. Johnny, Johnny, youse fell right in ter it.
