but little to say about tho Tammany
frauds, In an editorial to-day thinks that
the attacks of the press upon the city OIL.
cials are founded upon personal spite, dis
appointment and party business matters.

held the sway in the city during tho past
year have been guilty of plunder, and
that the present power oil Tammany was
attained through the cooperation of lie.
