and substitute Nicoll for Fzllows. And
the time is growing short.
TEE ANAH0HI8T8f DOOM.
The popular approval of the Anarchists'
doom is serious, not revongeful.
There is no cruelty in tho purpose of law,
however cruel its exeoution may sometimes
be. Its object is the protection of society.
The vory fact that numbers of persons con.
elder that the Anarchists committed no crimo
in inciting men to raurdor, and were justified
in striking at tho foundations of American
institutions, proven that an oxnmplo to tho
contrary is needed. Tho serpent's brood is
best crushed when it is young.
A FATAL OMISSION.
Tho burning issue of this campaign is
whethor or not the prosecution of Boodlors
shall be pushed.
The resolutions adopted at the Fxllows
meeting last night utterly ignore this all-lm.
portant question.
Was it oversight or Intent ? It matters
not. The omission, from whatever cause, is
damning in Its significance.
The People will take no risk of further
omissions of this sort. They will put a man
in tho District-Attorney's office whose forget,
fulness of Boodlors is not quite so well devel
oped. In Niooll's platform this missing resolu
tion will bo found 1
" No Quarter to Publio Thieves."
BEFORU THE ASYLUMS.
Nklltji Blt's mission to the Insane Asylum
on Blaokwell's Island is bearing good fruit.
The Grand Jury, having investigated tho
oondltion of the institution, makes a pre.
sentment coinciding with the substantial
oharges in the romarkable report by Tnx
Wobld's representative.
It is urged that the patients should have
better medical attendance, better nurses, bet
ter food and hotter bathing and other facili
ties. To attain these reforms a more liberal
approprtatlon is necessary and should be
given without hesitation.
New York can bear her proper burdens
without whimpering. Starve out tho Bood
lers, brush off tho leeohos, stop all tho leaks,
but deal with liberal hand with the poor and
helpless wards of the city.
This is a cause espoused by Tux Wobli
with enterprise and persistence. It is an
other sample of " nowspaper bossism."
"roLmos HAS HO MEMORIES."
Bo says the weathercock supporter of tho
Bosses : " Politios has no memories."
The nomination of Jonit B. Fxllows could
havo boon made only by men who believe this
doctrino. They must have relied upon tho
people's forgetf ulness of their character and
of his record or they would nover have com
mlttod suoh a monumental blundor.
Is it truo ? Have the people forgotten how
Fxllowb holpod to re-elect Twxkd to the Sen.
ato after tho boss thief was branded for tho
Penitentiary? Ilnvo they forgotten that
Fxllows was the Bing's mouthploce in the
State Convention, and denounced Tildkn and
O'CoMon as his supporters now denounce
Nicoll ? Have thoy forgotten that Fxllows
has boen tho ready tool of every Boss, from
Swxxnx to Powxn ?
Has " politics no memories ?" The election
will show.
A BLIGHT IHOOHSIBTEMOT.
Mayor Hewitt has repeatedly deolared that
ho had nothing to do with tho county
nominations.
It now appears on his own showing that he
had a very lively and consplouous finger In
the pie. Ho says: "If anybody was re
sponsible for the seloction of FiTzaxBALD, I
am the man." That the rejection of Niooll
and tho nomination of Fxllows was prac
tically decided by "ME," is the inevitable
conclusion from tho Mayor's own letter and
interviews.
These statements don't "jibe." To put it
very mildly, Mr. Hewitt's jewel of con
sistency is much bodlmmed by servloe in a
bad cause.
There is much disappointment beoause tho
morning Ananias did not give a full report of
the round-up of officeholders in behalf of
Fxllows last night. There was a little hiss
ing episode overlooked that has a direct bear
ing upon the question of " treason " to the
Democracy.
" One of the brightest and ablest young
men in New York a man of very creat
promise, who would make an excellent District-Attorney."
So said Mayor Hewitt of
Dz LiMcxx Nicoll on Oct. E. So say the
people now. 80 they will vote on Tuesday.
Nicoll sends a $250 check for the Demo
cratic State ticket. The desperate County
Bosses are scheming to administer quite a
different sort of a cheok through the medium
of a Deal.
There is not a fair-minded man in this city
who doubts that the Labor party is legally
entitled to its Inspectors. Then stop this
miserable legal farce and let fair play prevail.
The crocodiles, who are weeping " for tho
ruined political future of Dx Lamcxt Nicoll,"
will have a chance to cheer up next Tuesday.

lost, when Jzmkt Ltnd joined " the choir Invisible."

that he rnado six speeches last night, came
Into headquarters to-day as fresh as a daisy.
Ho said: I can tell The Evenino Wokld
candidly that I think our county ticket
will be oloctod."
"Why do you think so?" asked tho ro
reporter. " Wo had 60,000 solid votes last year, after
making all reasonable allowances. Wo will
not lose moro thou eighreen thousand this
year, and I know thoro aro a great many
people who sympathized with us last year,
but did not vote with us bocauso they had no

personally know a great mauypoople who
havo boon converted to our .land

and many friends in tho move

ways I have ovidonco of great additions to
our strength, but boyond tlmt, if there is
anything in agitation at all, an immenso num

tho year by tho numerous meotings, local and

tho Standard, with its lnrgo circulation, and

" Judging by tho effect of this agitation, so
obvious in tho city districts, whoro it can be

have added anvwhero from '25.000 to 60.000
votes to tho party, and boliovo that our voto
in this city will run from 76,000 to 90,000. As
matters appear to mo, I think I will be the
next District-Attornoy."
Mr. Post will speak to-night in tho Eighth,

Col. Fellows Never Could Hay Knoig9 that

When Tammany voters are called upon to
night to shout for John It. Fellows as part
of the ticket Boss Power has put up to vote
for, let them remombcr that for years Mr.
Fellows was a virulent villiflcr of their last
leader, John Kelly. Let the Tammany men
who honor John Kelly's memory turn to tho
columns of the Bun or Herald at the tlmo of
tho Tammany bolt In 1879 and read their ro
ports of Fellows's speeches denouncing
Tammany and assailing its leader. Col. Pel.
low h was not a politician of much proml
nenco at that time, but his invectives against
John Kelly woro so bitter that tho press was
coiupolled to take notice of them.
AtaBpoechin Irving Hall, Nov. 2, 1879,
Col. Fellows took occasion to air his an
tagonism to Kelly and said, among othor
things, this 1 " You havo seen that thcro has

cratic party at tho oltar of Tammany Hall."
There are hundreds of Tammany voters in
tho old wigwam to-day who will remember
that speooh, and who will Burely resent it at
the ballot-box next Tuesday.
It was in the same campaign and at Cooper
Union that Col. FellowBsaid: "You ore to
say that you will no longer bo tho slavo of
any ono man. (Applause) If Tammany
and wo havo disagreed on principles, I
would hovo not ono word to soy:

Keep your chains if you will. IIo will forgo

John Kolly nover had a more bitter assail

" GO UP IIIGIIKR 1" This is what tho
Democracy of New York should say to Ran

Tnx Wonu inquires as to tho causes which
have led tho Herald and the Sun to recon
sider their approval of tho candidacy of Mr.
De Lancey Niooll for District-Attornoy.
So far as tho Bun is concerned they aro
very grave. THEY RELATE TO THE
WOKLD " ITSELF.
So far as wo havo known Mr. Nicoll and
so far as wo havo watohed his course, wo
have LEARNED TO ESTEESI HIM
HIGHLY. But the more we admire tho at
tainments of so young and promising a law
yer, the more profoundly wo deplore his as
sociation with Tnx Would.

Mr. Martino found a young lawyer (Nicoll)
of pleasing personal address, great self-oon-fldenco,
and that port of bumptious
ness whioh is useful in certain lines
of work. He also possessed mus
cular logs, and on that aocount was VALU
ABLE AS A MESSENGER. Mr. Mar
tino took this young man into his office and
gavo him a start in life. The young gentle,

We nominate the lion. William ifarcy Tweed

man of the Hanocratic party of this State, He
rated it 'from dirteion and ruin. He has more
hrains and more money than any other member
of the party. He is true to his friends and liberal
