The adherents OF Tammany solace themselves

leaders will work disastrousy against the alliance,
but that remains to be tested. 1t must however
pc borne IN mind that the Iammany county and
judiciary go along with the State ticket and the
man that votes one votes ALL unless he goes TO the
trouble OF separating them. This Is seldom done
py the average voter. The follower OF Apollo Hall
Is supposed to vote the State democratic ticket and
when he gets It and finds 1t attached to county
and Judiciary ticket OF the same political stripe he
will be apt to forget his allegiance to Apollo Hall
and go the whole hog or none.
In regard TO the county ticket OF Tammany fall

than was at first the case.

nothing to be said adversely He IS popular more
by reason OF the negative than the positive traits
OF his disposition. Inc report OF his connection
with native organization called the United Ameri-
can Mechanics IS emphatlcally denied, and 1t is
hardly likely that one who has always been in poll

WILLIAM WALSH,
the candidate for County Clerk, has passed through

servedly dealt with IN many respects. He has
been made the scapeg0at for the sins OF his family
connections. Walsh was squeezed out OF political
life by Tweed because OF his opposition to that
potentate. He is poor man, and If 1t be not his
poverty that makes him popular, II must be some
other quality that cannot be deemed criminal.

thumous glories to which that brilliant and SELF
sacrincing institution was entitled.
THE APOLLO C0RONERS.
First comes 'the bowld s0jer boy" Cornelius
Flynn, six feet odd in his stockings. He is the
democratic syrup in the republican liquor, but
whether the syrup or the liquor will have the best
flavor for the voters remains to be seen. Captain
Michael Cregan and Andreas Willmann make the
republican represen tatlon on the C0roner's ticket.
One will poll the German and the other win poll
whatever vote he can.
THE APOLLO ALDERMAN
is Mr.. George Opdyke Jr., not Sr.. as was given
out. He is young man, not so brilliant as to hide
the lustre OF the other candidates, but he Is of
good connections and should make respectable
alderman. Sucn is the Apollo ticket. Not a bad
one on the whole, as people think and say, and
only for its plebald character would meet with the
average approval.
THE TAMMANY JUDGES,
Lawrence and Dononue, for Supreme Court, are
hue, 1t is thought, Deng likely to fail behind Law
renee by about 500 votes. Anderson and Speer,
for Superior Court, are not as well known, but
their regulations are accepted as sound. McAdam
and Alker are negative. Both are respectable
men as lar as the public knows, and though they
may never set the East River on fire they win ac-

Edward Gilon, is not much known, but to the
best OF his ability he is making himself acquainted
with the devious paths OF politics, and after he
serves term in the City Hall will know how the
whole thing works. Here, then, are the two county
tickets, both strong in certain ways, and, If there
is any force in the doctrine OF compensation, the
weakness in parts OF the one should prove the
strength OF the other.

He is looking through the field with careful eye.

reputation OF being one OF the moving spirits

Intellectually OF the political organizations Of this

late Judge David Buel, OF Troy. He lives on Fifth
avenue, is gentleman OF education. lawyer by

In the Third Assembly district James Hayes is
the Tammany candidate, and he is the best known
and perhaps the most popular politician In his dis
trict.
There is considerable feeling in the Fourth Sena-
torial district against the Tammany nominee, JOhn
Fox. This arises from the fact that his influence
was thrown, 1t is said against General
Thomas Francis Bourke, the Fenian exile who was
imprisoned Tor 1--WE years in England owing to his
