said to a You don't mean to tell me that you think the have given np Ing to carry New York Yes 1 be replied I think they have fully decided on this to put all their money and energy into Pennsylvania and Virginia and to let Neir York go Democratic But wouldn't that be a blow to the Ad- 1 It might but tbe New York people who have been iu a habit ot putting np money to carry the elections for tbe Republicans have refused to furnish the money this time But believe that by liberal use of money they can carry that and that it they do so it will be a sort of stand oir in regard to New York and the

while the revenues of the SBB are estimated at This Is perhaps an exceptional case as the average rate is probably not five to seven per cent on the yearly value ot farm holdings but owing to the arbitrary manner in which these titles are levied instances of almost equal hardship undoubtedly exist There is a general feeling that the Gladstone tration will be compelled now that the settlement of the Egyptian question re- them from the exploiting of a for- eign policy to pay speedy attention to needed reforms at home This makes It likely that the question will become in the near future a
