they Did they not at the same time nominate
support and elect Judge Amasa J. Parker to the
Supreme Court, in that very Third District where
they bad undoubted power to elect and defeat
whom they pleased And was it not notorious that
Judge Parker had tried many Of these very Anti
Rent cases and repeatedly decided point after point
against the Tenants Do not the facts IN this case
completely refote your farfetched implication
- But the material question concerns not at all
what then thouQhi, bat what Messrs. Jordan and
Whttlesey uould hare done Suppose it were as

Law in support Of their notions or interests do y0

this oue.tion frankly. You know something OF

thew would have decided Manor cases other"He
than according to law And if not, supposins 'ne
Anti r enters 10 desire illegal decisions IN thei De-

Iow bv the very men whom the Anti X enters had
cbosen 10 favor their designs How else could
their mouths have been stopped so completely
Ought not every one who felt sure they "Ishen Ihe
Law perverted TO their ends 10 have desired that
the decision on their cases in the last resort had
been committed to upright and capable Judges
whom they had supported so as to leave them with
out a pretext for resisting the decision
The Commercial needed not TO inform us that 1t
concurred heartily in the spirit OF Canninss sheer
at Human Rights and Wrongs in the ditty OF the
"Weary Knife Grinder We understood that
perfectly before. But when it processes to "ion
with The Tribune in saying that the differences
which have distracted and paralyzed the Wing
Party in our State ought to be acted upon IN our
next State Convention does it mean that 1t VIII
defer TO the action and in good faith support the no
limitations Of that body or does it intend to play
the old game over again This is what we have
repeatedly asked of or another Of the plotters
against NJ essrs Jordan and Whittlesey, but none
Of them answers. VIII the Commercial he ex-
picit on this point now Or does it really mean
TO 20 into another Wing Convention IN order 10
carry nominations after its own heart II poss'b e.
but if outnumbered there, to work against the can
didates selected Let US understand
