TAMMANY'S POSITION.

Many of our esteemed Democratic ex-
changes have begun to ask in very i'm
perative fashion what Tammany is going
to do, or why it has not already wheeled
into line and displayed its old-time fer
yor for the ticket? The journals that
most noisily demand the information are
those which for month past exhausted
v ebster's Dictionary in quest of oppro-
brious epithets to hurl at Tammany.
Before and during the Chicago conven-
ton these able organs daily vociferated
that the party was stronger without Tam.
many than with it. That, too, was the
sentiment which dominated at the Ma
tional convention. What has wrought
the sudden change?
After the sights, insults, and contume-
y beaped upon them at Chicago, it is
only natural that the Tammany Dem
ocrats should retire to remote seclusion
and mediate on their own iniquty as
pointed out to them by the pure and gifted
spokesnen of the victorious machine.
Would it not be the acme of audacity
for these bold, bad Tammanyites to at
tempt to climb back, unlimited, after
being so peremptorily unloaded?
Three weeks ago the Atlanta Constitu-
ton treated tits southern readers to this
choice editorial sentiment:
There are some pretty rough and reck-
less iokers in the United States of Amer
lea, but, as far as our knowledge extends,
none are rough or reckless enough to i'm.
pute honesty or patriotism to the men
who control the shambled voters that
support Tammany.
Literd scripta mdnet. The Constiu
ton now, however, has softened it's tone
and appeals to Tammany to work tor
the success OF the ticket. Is this chival.
rous? Is it consistent? Having scourged
the dishonest and unpatriotic leaders"
and "the shamhled voters" must they be
invited back to places in the ranks, if
not to chairs at the fesst2
We present these few kernels of CON-
mon sense to such of our contemporaries
as have been villifyipg the veteran Dem
ocracy of New York City. When the
weather grows cooler, Tammany will
meet in free council and determine upon
its proper course.-Ne,o York Star.
