ated with the Tammany "Ring" in many Oh
their CORRUPT schemes TO do this We hau no

cause too many of our Unionist wire-workers
GRO silent mariners in some of the worst jobs OF

Mr.. Roberts's vote for Mayor is the largest
oyer vet given here to any other than a Demo-
cratic candidate-considerabl larger than that
polled for the Union ticket in our recent State
election. 1t might have been swellcd some
wha. by concentrating on him all the Union
votes cast for Hecker; but for every one thus
GAINED to Roberts two would have been driven
to Recorder Hoffman, so that no practical re-
suit would have been attained The UnlonistS
may succeed here, not by protesting to be, but by
really being so heartily devoted TO City Reform
as to unite cordially on equal terms with other
good citizens to achieve it.. And this we hope
