The New York herald., 1875-10-31

The daily papers, with few exceptions, have bitterly
opposed our nominations and have particularly d.
rected their attacks against They are filed with
misrepresentation daily put think that within tho
last few days they have become convinced that their
denuncations have only added numbers to the party,
and now their chief cry Is that John Kelly is dicta
tor In rebuttal OF that charge / would simply say
that have advised the nominations; in no case
have failed to consult the members Of the several
districts We have agreed upon proper men for Office,
and that is all the kind % influence that
have used You have Judiciary candidates to be
proud of The press has denounced me, but it
could not belttlc them and ! am happy TO state that
they viii be elected and viii discharge their duties I'M
influenced by John Kelly or any other Kelly. Two
years ago elected six gentlemen, and they VIII
cheerully bear witness that never ala attempt to in
nuence them, Notwithstanding what the editors say.
Some editors governed by private friendships and
the reports OF our meetings in their papers are not
given fairly This should not be II ever the lber-
ties OF our country destroyed viii be by just such

to give the State good government We nominated

people, aud that he might correct the abuses that had
become enormous He and his associates have been

dilate for District Attorney is worthy OF the posi-
ton lie VIII be elected and will discharge his duties
without prejudice, and no John Kelly shall
prevent It, All men then will be treated fairly IL -
not 50 now, regret to say OF the men who committed
the crimes against the ballot oox-oiences the most ab-
horrent III government like ours-none OF
prominence ever punished. The develop

officials to let prisoners go not have them tried at all
As TO criminals, can only say that OF all yaga6onds
educated vagabonds the worst, for they know
enough to keep out of the mcshes Of the law. There
should be twenty thirty years sentences for poor
while rich are allowed to escape. The history
Of the Recorders Office for two or three years has been
bad enough, but Mr. Abbott says that atterly II has
been than ever.
MT Kelly then eulocized the Tammany candidate for
Recorder and predicted that he would be elected on
Tuesday and that Mr. Hackett would be consigned
TO oblivion.
Oakley Hail. he continued has charged me with
malice and malignant motives and accused me Of having
a mastrs disposition. There is one thing that can
say and that Is that have not bad character rs
Oakey Hall The community has Judged him, and II he
obtained what he deserved he would probably not be
running around loose The statement that wrote
Recorder Hackett asking him for patronage in his
such import TO the Recorder. All sorts Of at
tcmpts have been made by the press g.. 70
press should have higher motives They are not fond
Of taking back anything that they have said, and they
VIII not do 50 directly; but when our candidates are
elected they will be compelled to confess that they
were mistaken in their estimate of them.
MAKING A TARGET or COLONEL GIDERsLEEyE
Mr. Kelly then pronounced glowing eulogums upon The
Tammany candidates and referring Mr. Gldesleeve,
said that he urged for election simply because he
had made some good shots in Ireland The man who

should have higher qualifications, and what
you have to do Is TO stick to the regular
candidates The people and papers Interested
against us say that Tammany is disorganizcd. The
assertion is not true She never in better cond

pamphlets from the National Republican Association of
Washington were being industrously circulated in New
York the said pamphlets being calculated 70 arouse Lhe
preiudices Of the people on religious questions He
urged however, the scattering Of the pamphlets against
Recorder Hackett Of which there many vet left up

the labor question: the position OF Tammany Hall has
been explained in pamphlet The resolutions therein

laborers' wages. Mayor Wickham has acknowledged
that knew nothing Of the affair and that he assumed

facts should be more generally circulated As to the
laborers the Eight Hour law Is still on the statute
