Senator O'Gorman of New York de clare* tluil Wood row W I loon If choseu .the Democratic nominee can carry tbat state again* t any Uepubllcan. ? weightier comment on present day politics has not bean made. It crushes the flimsy pretension that Woydrow Wilson's candidacy would lose or im peril the party's chance In New York state and indicates his strength in the strategic center o f the eaat ua well as in the west and the south. Coming ^from a leader of Senator O'Gorman'a prestige and farslgbted ness, this eatimate ia particularly sig nificant Hb is the titular head of the Democracy of New York, a state that baa ninety votea in the nominating convention and forty-five votea in the electoral college, the atate for wkiqfc both parties strive most vigorously in presidential years as the key to na tional success, lie baa the support of Tammany Hall, but be is immeasura bly beyond and above the system with which Tammany ia identified In tb* publio mind. He la versed in prac tical politics , but he Is also a akates man of apotlesa record and of rare ability, so much ao indeed that when he was called to the aeclate the people as * whole, regardless ot party con nections, rejoiced tbat the duties of the office had Allen upon a man ao emi nently fitted to bear them. Ot fl.ll the Democratic nominees yet suggested Woodrow Wilson would not only stand the largest chance to carry New York, but, according to the recent testimony of Senator Gardner of Maine, be is the only Democrat who could win portions of New England. From the -clear headed testimony of these two eminent Democrats* Sena tor O'Gorman of New York and Sena tor Gardner of Maine, it ia evident that Governor Wilson is particularly strong in the very places wherein- hi* foes would have us believe he is fatally weak. When to this fact 1b added the confi dence and tha, following be has w^n over the country as a whole there can be no fair minded doubt that ef^all the aspir%pts in the field to is by far the best fitted, both as a statesman and n candidate. ? a* GOVERNOR WIL80N'S " CHANCES. ?? M York World.] The World is unable to agree with its friend Colonel Watter oon that. "tli? Woodrow Wilson presidential bopm haa started on the down grade." Viewing the situation' without'?, prejudice, we should say that ths governor of New Jsrssy is still ths leading Demooratio candidate for the nomination and that he is Still the only candidate who has shown strength in alt sec tions of the oountry. GOV. WILSON'S CANDIDACY. ; ? Harris burg (Pa.) Patriot: "Hon. James O'Gorman, who left the bench of the supreme court of New York to become a senator of the Unlte<UStates, shows poetical acumen when he e?? presses the opinion that Woodrow Wil Kon could carry New York and by a larger majority than any Qther 'man who has been mentioned for the Deity ocratic nomination for president" Corslcana (Tex.) t Sun: "Looks as though the more fight made against Governor Wilson the stronger hla sup port grows. Governor Wilson knows the political game as well as those who are in It with him." ' Bradentown (Fla.) Herald: "United States Senator N. p. Bryan tits declar ed for Woodrow Wilson for president Senator Bryan doesn't make any grand stand plays, but his sympathies are with his constituents." Montrose (Colo.) Enterprise: "The Democratic party will make a grave mistake if It falls to place Woodrow Wilson at the head of its national ticket? a mistake which will more tftan likely dost it the presidency."

They aimed to raid New York una to destroy the Iroquois set tlement at Niagara. It was a move whoae perfect success might well have proved the opening wedge whereby in time New York would have becom? a French province. But between Canada and the set tled portions of New York stretched lands, of the "Six Nations," which formed the tierce Iroquois confeder acy. i And it was ostensibly against the Iroquois that this expedition was sent. The "Six Nations" formed a red barrier between New York** and Franco's greed. ' Bo sudden was the French Invasion that there was no time to mage a force of Iroquois wtrong enough to re? - pel thoiu. nut an Onandaga chief of the "Six Nations," known and dreaded by the French M "Chaudlere Noire" ("BlacU Kettle*'), sumoned eighty of his braves and hastened to meet the Invaders. He waa too wily a general to oppose his eighty men In open field against a force nearly four times as large as their own.. He was paepared to lose his own life and to sacrlfloe the lives of his followers* But for those liven be was resolved to get as? high a price as possible. 80, Instead of attacking the French In "etand up" battle, ho met them In a long running fight through the wilderness; using every rock, and tree as a barrier, and firing eternally at bU enemies from behind ?uch Oovpr. A Famous "Running Fight.* Such a fight, against a vastly supe rior force, could have but one final re sult. Ktich Indian slew more than one of 1## oes, and almost out to pieces the French expedition. Yet Black Ket tle's company was utterly wiped out. To pay for the I6ss of his braves, Black Kettle the next year raided western Canada and laid waste many miles of French settlements. Ho had paid bis debt and bad, moreover, giv en the French a wholesome Idea of the dangers of Invading New York. In 1691 Black Kettle was one of the prime movers In an Iroquois plot to destroy the Canadian trading posts and villages near Montreal. His plans were betrayed to the French by an In dian woman and the expedition ended In defeat. i.o punisn-tnis attack the French : swept down upon hunting parties of the Iroquois who were encamped around the St. Lawrence river. Black Kettle was quite ready to enter Into Buch 'a game <5f retaliation. He knew that large bands of friendly Indians traded In furs with the French at Mon treajLytind that such bands went to and from Montreal guarded by French troop*. By assailing these traders he would, not only be showing Indians the danger of friendship with the French, but would also be wounding the latter in a vulnerable Bpot ? the bftnk-> account ? by breaking up their fur trade.. So he fell upon allr?uch trading par ties; killing both the friendly Indians and their French guards, and seizing the precious furs they carried. So successful was Black Kettle at this style of warfare that he-was embol dened to plan a home-thrust against his French foes. The scheme was audacious? ttfmost insanely so. Yet In its very audacity lay its chance of success... ' Collecting the pick of his warriors and making long, secret marches, Black Kettle, on July 16, boldly at tacked the city of Montreal. Through the streets be rushed at the head of his braves; slaying, plundering, tak ing prisoners. Then, before the (French could fly t<X arms,, he was gone again and well on his homeward way, laden with booty and captives. ~ The Last Great Exploit. But thus hampered, Black Kettle's victorious band could not make their usual swift progress. A rescue party was hastily formed at Montreal and gave chaise. In order to escape to his own |and with a whole skin, Black Kettle was obliged to release his pris oners, That same year, however, he atoned to his wounded self-respect for the 10#s by attacking a marching rsgi ment of Frenchmen and killing theft leader, the Sleur de Lu sign an. But this was the last* of Black Ket tle's noted exploits. In 1697 he made peace with the French. While he was on a hunting trip near Cattaraugus, during the progress of the peace \ negotiations, he was ambushed and murdered by several of . France's Al gonquin allies. His slayejrs either did not krtow the War between Black Ket tle apd the French was at an end, or they Wantonly disregarded the peace treaty. * (Oo0jrTl*ht->. Long Drift of PUmlce Stone.
