New York, Feb. 1.-THE Tincs SAYS
The speech OF DIR. McGlynn at Pythago.
ras hall Thursday evening, breaking away
entirely from Henry Gcarge and declaring
that he no longer wanted him as a presi-
dental candidate, has caused great excite
mont in the ranks OF the United Labor
party, and from the opinions expressed it
is not improbable that split will take
place in the party, some taking sides with
Henry George and Others with DIR.
M'Glynn.
The socialists are simply delighted over
the quarrel between the prophet and
priest OF the United Labor party, and re-
mark jubilantly, 1--WE told you so"
Mr.. Jones, Of the Polks Zcitng said that
he hoped that the different labor elements
would not unite in politics.
The friends OF Henry George, while
they are astounded at the suddeness with
which DR.. McGlynn has broken away from
his friend seemed to have been prepared
for a split between the leaders, and they
ascribo il TO more than one reason. Gen
orally they lay the blame upon Gaybert
Barnes, the secretary Of the Land and La
Dor party, whose headquarters are at the
Cooper Institute, and where DIR. McGlynn
has been, and is daily visit Barnes,
they say, is itching TO get into the service
Of the Blaine crowd, and to make all the
capital lac can out Of IT,.
lie wants 10 make the United Labor
party q tail TO the Blaine Republicans. lie
knew that he could not use Henry George,
because the latter's free trade principles
were in direct opposition 10 the high pro-
tective tariff doctrines Of the plumed
knight, and upon which issue the Repub-
licans intended 10 mako thcfght. lie had
done some work for Henry George in read
ing the proofs OF his work, "Protection and
Free Trade, and he knew well his positive
nature. But with DR.. McGlynnit was diff
fcrent. DIR. McGlynn was priest, unac-
quainted with practical politics and the
ways Of the world. and he could manage
him more easily. So he made up his mind
90 cause an estrangemcnl between the two
leaders, and, II possible, 10 get Henry
George thrown out OF the party. lie in
simulated himself into the gmccs OF DR..
McGlynn and gradually insthlcd subtle
poison into him. y ~
How docs Mr.. Barnes intend 10 deliver
over the United labor 10 the Blaine crowdi
Why by drawing away workingmcn's votes
from the Democratic party In doubtful
States. II was only short time ago that
lac had said that the United Labor party
must make the greatest fight In New York,
New Jersey, Connecticut and Indiana,
which lac regarded as doubtful States. lie
has been urging the necessity Of holding d
national convention Of the party 10 nomi.
nate candidate for Prcsidnt. What In.
duced Dr. McGlynn 10 break No suddenly
with Henry George, the gentleman thought,
was that only few DAYS ego a circular was
sent out from the headquarters in this city
10 all land and labor clubs In the country,
proposing u union with the Union Labor
party in the west, and nominating DIR.
McGlynn as candidate for President.
Mr.. George declined 10 be seen, and sent
out TO say that he would express his views
Ia the next issue Of his paper.

How an Infuriated Ornament OF the
Bench Made His Mark.


Bench Made His Mark.
In speaking Of the new tax laws, Comp
trollor Pickard said TO Nashville american
reporter: 81 suppose that from now to
the end OF time taxpayers will kick at pay
ing taxes. hear some complaint about
the personal property tax law passed by
the last Legislature, providing that
there should be tax assessor appointed
in each county, whose duty it is to set a
value on every piece OF personal property he
can find, and assesses it accordingly. A
great many object to swearing TO the blank
form which is prepared by the assessor,
claiming that their property should be
taxed at its market value. The merchants
of Nashville object very strenously to the
merchants State tax. They claim that
Memphis merchants are not assessed at
half what the same amount OF property is
taxed in this city,"
Mr. House, Assistant State Treasurer, in
speaking on the same subject, said: 81
have Just heard OF an incident in regard TO
this law, which was rather embarrassing to
the assessor. A gentleman living in one OF
the counties OF West Tennessee had n
he tied discussion the other day with the
tax assessor about the valuation made OF
some property. The gentleman refused to
swear TO the statement prepared by the
tax collector and the two were debating
the question, when prominent Judge
stepped in. lie also held in his hand q
statement which had been sent him few
hours before by the assessor TO sign. The
Infatuated ornament of the bench immedi-
ately pounced upon the tax collector, abus-
ing him with every vile epithet he could
call TO mind, swearing he wouldnot sign the
statement made out by the assessor, rs he
had assessed the property at twice its
value, but would pay the d-m fine. This
gave complainant No. loophole for
escape, and he also positively refused to
sign his document. The two soon con-
WINGED the poor assessor that the law was
infamous. and were allowed to leave the
Office without settling their taxes or even
paying their fine.

How They Vote in Mexico.

The election for President in Mexico
has recently taken place, and a corre-
spondent of the Boston Herald tells how
the voting is done in that country. The
election takes place on Sunday, and the
polls were open all over the City of
Mexico. At most of the polling places,
situated in the "zaguans, or porticos of
houses, there were two men sitting at a
small table. There was no ballot box or
electoral urn. merely printed forms on
which the citizen voting indicated in
writing his preference for elector and
then signed his name. 1t was very quiet
at all these places, and no soldiers were
to be seen at the polling places, and no
show of power in any form. All was as
democratic as an election in any rural
town in Massachusetts. No loafers were
permitted, and nobody came up with a
bunch of ballots urging the voter to take
this or that ticket. There were no ward
politicians out, nor did any wear badge.
Any one who desired voted without let
or hindrance. All the stories of troops
at the polling places, and of high-kanded
interference with the popular will, turned
out to be mere bugaboos, like too many
Southern outrage yarns in our Presiden-
tial contests. True, very few people
voted, for the average citizen down here
is no politician, and SO long AS he can
go to bed at night in peace and get up in
the morning unawakened by canonading,
he lets politics run as they please.
