sheriff Albert Daggett is chairman. The first two
months after the Convention were spent IN quiet
work, and then by parades and great public
meetings. the Academy of Music being
thronged on half n dozen occasions to hear
the foremost orators Of tic party, enthusiasm was
aroused and maintained. All the wards we're fully
canvassed and the issues relating TO workIugmen
were presented to them fully and forcibly. The
Young Mems Central Campaign Club a11 the
Brooklyn Young Republican Club effectively supple
mented the work OF the regular committee. TN
the other hand the local dissensons in the
Democratic party nulfed much of the work
done by it. Boss Mclaughlin who has had
control of the "machinep for several years WAS
personally opposed to General Hancocks
nomination and did not and in the WORK for ms sue
