BAD LOCAL NOMINATIONS By THE RING STRENGTH
En- THE REPUBLICAN LOCAL TICKET.
II Is undiSputed that the local nominations
by the Democrats in Brooklyn and the methods by
which they were made have injured their general ticket
10 some extent The revolt Of the Jefferson Dernoc-
raey" against the Ring" Democracy OF " Boss "
Mclaughlin has had sudden and dsgraceful conclu
sion as that of the NewYor County Democracy against
Tanlnany dctation; indeed. 1t has been con-
temptble for instead Of coaxing and humOring John
Kelly coaxed and humOred his opponents the Ring has
ridden roushsh0d over the Jefersonan organization,
capturing the primaries and debating the conventions
the same old set Of candidates tarred by the old
Ring stick. The Je6ersonian reformers secured the
passage last session Of special law regulating primary
elections IN Brooklyn. by which system OF registration
secured as it was thought fair and honest elections Of
delegates to nominating conv entOns. They mustered
In fun force at the primaries hut when these had
been concluded it was found that the Ring delegates
had in some way been returned. In the conventions
which followed the Boss was found stu to be the
dictator, and his favorites put in nomination.
Against this there has been uckng" by the hack
politicians OF the defeated faction but these Will doubt
less be whipped into the traces again. The methods
Of nominating and the class Of candidates thus far
named however have dsgusted Independent Democrats
OF the nonpoca class who while supporting the state
ticket of the party Will merclessy slaughter some parts
OF the local ticket
Especially will this be the case IN the contests for
Register Controller ana Justice OF the sup RENE Court

will also for Tracy. His opinion in the Ee-
vated Railway has added to his popularity with all
classes in Brooklyn where there IS feeling onthe
