THE ANTI-TAMMANY PARTY.
THE MEETING OF THE COUNTY COMMITTEE
THIS EVENING AT IRVING HALL.

THE MEETING OF THE COUNTY COMMITTEE
THIS EVENING AT IRVING HALL.
The General, rather the members of it prefer to
call it, the County Committee of the ant-Tammany
party will hold meeting at Irving Hall this evening
for the purpose Of more eectualy perfectng the
ganzation and to draw up a code of bylaws by which
hereafter the members OF the committee will be guided
1t is believed, too that there will be a somewhat ex
citing time the selection of permanent chairman
and the why is to be elected is according
some of the members, that at the last
meeting of the committee only temporary organ
ization effected. 1t is than probable
If he be induced to accept that Thomas j. Dreamer
will be nominated for the position as his strategic
campaign last November which resulted in the defeat
of Mr.. Morrissey's friend, Hayes, has gwen him
prestige with those ant-Tammanyites who really
in earnest in opposition to the Wgwam leaders, which
places HIM virtually the head of the new opposition
Whether anything will be said an authoritative way
about
COMBINATION WITH THE REPUBLICANS
that is to be made the county ticket it would be
hard conjecture for the that the leaders are
in no way anxious as yet to make known all their
plans for the campaign until they are ready to strike
the blow which, in the earnestness of the
hearts of some of them, they confidently think
will knock the Tammany party into smithereens. 1t
seems certain anyhow, judging from the talk being in
dulged in by some Of the most active workers in the
organ zation that Mr. Benjamin X Phelps the present
District Attorney, will be renomnated by the repub
cans and that he will be indorsed by the anti Tammany
party. The latter claim that taking Mr. Ottendorer's
vote of last year as basis calculation they will II
they join hands with the republicans on candidates for
Coroner, Surrogate, City Judge Marine Court Judges
well as the District Attorney be certain to win the day
Ottendorfer was "a 226 and Wales So 953 Taking
it for granted they do that the republican candidate
for District Attorney will poll 10000 votes,
@ hm snd her own oanddaos po o Se Sen obep ssr
county offices to be ndorsed by the republicans large
vote at any rate as was given 0tendorer they point
to the grand result Of over 900 votes against Tam
manys 10000 1t is pretty certain that large portion
THE GERMAN VOTE
cast last year for Ottendorfer against Wckham
simply because the candidate Mr.. Ottendorfer and
1t is just as certain that portion of it will this year
before the Ottendorfer candidacy In the opinion of
the Tammany men the opposition will be lucky if they
cast Independent of the republicans 15 600 votes but
it must be understood that this year there is q
very ugly feeling among the laboring classes
who persist in holding Tammany responsible for the
reduction of the wages OF the men in the employ of the
city from 81 to 81 90 day. although even at the latter
rate they are now being paid higher price than
laborers not in the employ Of the city There is good
deal that talk this subject with OF the
workngmen, who, though they growl against Tam
many, will vote the straight Tammany ticket usual,
but equally certain that large vote Of the dssas
fed will be found the side of Tammany's antagonists
1t may be said just hero that some of the Tammany
people do not put much faith in the boasts OF their
democratic opponents to the effect that the republicans
will indorse all their county candidates, 'for,n say
say, "the republicans will not play second fiddle
to the anti-Tammany fellows, they would
be dong by ndOrsing their tic ket" But il should be
borne in mind by those who anticipate disagreement
this that If the republicans agree TO ndorse all
the anti-Tammany county candidates on condition that
their nomination for District Attorney will be in
dorsed by them in return, they will not be content with
taking only such men the anti-Tammanyltes fit
10 put in nomination without consultation with their
allies. The fact will probably be that the latter will
have almost much TO say about who shall be nom-
mated for Recorder Surrogate &c, they will have
about the District Atorneyshp the deal is to be made
at all in good earnest though Of course, the nominees
will be democrats The IrvngHall Committee tonight
their meeting may not openly touch upon that particu
lar feature of their coming campaign which depends for
its ''the union of hearts and the union of
hands, the part of themselves and the republicans
but the leaders will doubtless do something prepare
their followers for what is DC done in week or two
