THE LIBERAL DEMOCRATS.

Meeting OF the General Committee-Re-
ports from the Various Districts-Sena-
tor Creamer ON the Situation-Enthu usi-
astic PremOnftions.
meeting OF the General Committee OF the
liberal democrats met at Irving Han last evening.
There was a very large attendance and all seemed
TO be very enthusiastic and Mr. Creamer was
cheered as he entered the hall.
Mr.. Creamer on taking the chair said that this
organization would decide the question OF who
should be next Mayor, but work was necessary for
the purpose. Tue question OF the RegstershIp he
considered was already assured. and Mr..
Hayes might be considered as q man
already beaten BY their candidate, General
Patrick Il. Jones. (Applause.) It mad been
stated that the liberal democratic organization
was IN sympathy with the republican party and
that they would run hand in hand together. But
what Is the truth? A prominent republican
mad told the speaker that one OF the Tammany
leaders had agreed with the republicans to throw
over the whole county ticket II the republicans
would vote for James Hayes for Register. This
was the BARGAINING Of Tammany. Every man who
would have charge OF the ballot boxes
from this organization on election day would
be approached between here and there.
Gentlemen who pretend to give us
their support only to sell US out win nnd them
selves much mistaken II they think they can do
There are only two or three OF them, and they are
known. The dodge OF Tammany has been to be-
little US and to make people believe that we
amount to little They will make the pool selling

lowest In the pools, and so az to influence the
people. But the contest will not be between Mr..
Mlckham and Mr.. OttendorIer, but between hr.
