lie q strong party TO defeat 1ammany Hall at the
next election are working like beavers. an,
Judging from the active way the Cemmitfee OF
Seven appointed az the meeting held at belmont
co.'s on Monday last, are endeayoring 70 secure
the aid OF democrats OF standing IN the various
Assembly districts who have not been heretofore
Identified with the old Tammany party 1t would
seem as though the orlginators OF the movement
are In dead earnest. The committee held ses-
sion again yesterday IN Park row, all the
members being present IL was reported
by three OF the committee, who had
been deputed to invite certain democrats
in some OF the lower Assembly districts
to unite with them In the war against Tam
many that their offers had been well received and
that there now remained but seven districts mos
well represented on their list OF Assembly dis
tricts. IL was stated that many democrats VINO
were anxious 10 oppose Tammany were In favor
OF call being issued but the majority OF the COM
mittee, afrer a long discussion, adhered TO their
original determination mention oil which was
made in the HERALD last Tuesday, not TO make,
or themselves, q formal appeal TO the voters.
''what we intend 10 d." said one OF the members
or the committee 70 HERALD reporter
sqs to 40 the best we can to ascertain
Just what democrats in the various dis
trcts are willing 10 oppose Tammany on
principle. This is really the special duty OF the
Committee or Seven, and one OF the best assur-
ances that that duty is to be well performed, so
that ne 'eld hacks win be able TO join the move
ment Tor the purpose OF making capital for them
selves was given to-day when we struck from our
list more than . dozen names OF men, whose past
careers as

we deemed would DO the new party more harm
than their promised votes could do is service.
The great trouble In the past with all anti Tam
many movements has been that they were en-
g1neered by q few men, who worked with the view
OF getting bought on by promise OF once or
Of being admitted into the confidence OF Tammany
~ ward leaders. This movement will be an ex-
seption in tails respect"
According 70 all reports the men who are the
most active in getting up the new party believe
that they issue q call to the democratic voters
TO organize against 1ammany they will be looked
upon as setting themselves up as a sort OF "circle
OF leaders, for the rank and nle to do homage 10,
and that the voters would look upon II simply as
an invitation 10 abandon one set or masters for
knotner set In order, then, 10 assure the dissatis
ded democrats in all the districts, the Committee
Of Seven have decided not or themselves TO
act as ''oossesr land they say ali the
