THE COUNTY TICKET
there will be 1airer and fercer struggle than we
have had for years. On the Register there may be
an issue made between Germans ana Irish, but
there can be no doubt OF Judge Shandleys election
Sigel being republican Will poll the resubllcan
vote and may capture some OF the democratic votes.
Judge Shandley, however. VIII divide the German
vote in many quarters Of the CITY, and as all the
young men, even among the 'reformers," are IN
favor OF him. he cannot fan TO be elected. but he
and his friends feel that they must be vgiant and
dgent to the last. The nominees for the Judge
ships Dy both rammany ana It's opponents, except
for the Supreme Court are such as to insure beyond
o doubt the success OF Tammany.
THE ENDORSEMENT or LEDwITH
by Tammany for Judge OF the Supreme Court Is
largely commented on, and many say that Ledwith
cannot be elected If he accepts tho nomination. The
true state OF the case Is tnat Judge Ledwith was
nominated by the Young Democracy, which under
Mr.. Riumenthal has preserved ts entirety as an or
ganizatlon Independent OF the sOcalled reform de-
mocracy. Judge Ledwith accepted that nomination
and the Tammany Hall Convention merely endorsed
the nomination. Mr.. Ledwith has no choice IN the
matter He IS not obliged to publish card to all
Tammauy voters fOrbidding them to vote for MIN,
and Tammany has oone wisely in directing its fol-
