TIE NoN-APPEARAScE OF GOVERNOR TrLDENs
LETTER-Irs EFFECT LIKELY TO BE MARRIED
BY THE DELAY-AN AIR OF PARTY MANAGE
MESr.
The non-appcarance OF Governor rilden's letter to-
day was n disappointment TO his friends among
the democrats. and Joke among tho republicans as
we'll as 10 tho imitation democrats who like nothing so
well as to the Governor put in a ridiculous light
The letter confidently expected here last night
Everybody took for granted that it would be In the
New York papers this morning and the fresh delay
begins TO make 1t ridiculous.
There is no doubt that the Governors dlatoriness
has hurt him among the politicians in Washington.
For some time the republicans acknowledged privately
that the letter would probably be forcibe campaign
document, and the Eastern democrats counted con
spicuously upon 10 as likely to bring a great many
wavorng republicans TO their side. 1t was whispered
around that the Governor would speak in the
most decided and Jacksonian terms about money
Southern outrages and all that Of disputed points,
and there was timo when clear, ringing uttcrance
from him promised to be very effective But the per-
sistent bullying Of the soft money in the House
and the repeated conferences with Hendricks have
given air Of management to the delayed letter which
will among tho politicians here, ut least, deprive it
Of Its force matter how excellent its may be.
Nor Is this all Governor Tilden spoken Of here
by his friends shortly after tho nomination. a sort
OF Andrew jackson, man who would stand no non
sense, leader Of his party. and who would If ncccs
sary, force It into right courses; but some
marked to-day that 'ths Moses, who expected to
lead the democratic hosts seems to have got lost the
wilderness himself"
