the Empire State has broken away from the thradom OF
Party dc,aton and the seal OF condemnation upon
the policy oil the presen, State and National Admnisra
tons. But while rejoice in the general result, we
cannot iorbea from the reflection that friends whom
we cherish and honor statesmen whose loss the conn
try will deplore, have fallen in the conflict.
In the city of Ncw.York have struggled in the face
of an overwhelming local majority. The patronageand
the power Of the National State and Municipal Govern

organization desperate and interruptions in its

money throwing open the doors OF our aims house and
prisons-has welded sgains US vast engine OF fraud
and corruption But while some dishearened in view
of these obstacles retired from the conflict and while
others insidiousy labored bring down disaster upon
our cause the Democratic Wing Young Men have raj
he'd with unanmity and untrng zeal in support of the
Principles OF our Party less the candidates present
