7HE VICTORY OF y1uvAyy ul1,


Tammany yesterday won an overwhelming
victory over It's opponents in the election of
local candidate This result was due to two
obvious causes first, the apathy and indiffer-
ence of great many Republicans who failed
to register, and who did little or nothing to
support their party in this contests second the
treachery and the mercenary nature Of the rank
and file Of the County Democracy, who were
bought in hordes by Tammany bribes Per
haps it was not surprising that Republicans
failed to display that zeal and energy which
would have been effective in overcoming the
tyrannical and domineering faction which has
taken possession of the city government. In
the year after the tremendous strain and heat
of Presidential campaign there is sure to be
q reaction, and if there are no candidates of
great popularity and extended reputation ap-
healing to the suffrages of their fellow-citizens
for such offices as the GoveInorship or the
Mayoraty, this reaction invariably takes on
serious proportions in the Republican party.
The local Democratic factions are chiefly
made up of men who expect to enrich them
selves in one way or another by giving attention
to politics. The proportion OF citizens who 'Iss

Mr.. Hardenbergh st. Paul loses an old
and respected citizen and an enterpris-
ing business man, who has been promi-
nently identified with the jobbing trade
of the city almost since it became
known as business center. Coming to
st. Paul in 1871 he succeeded Zsche &
Heyer in the wholesale leather
business, which he continued up
to the time of his death, carrying
one of the most extensive stocks
of leather, shoefnding and saddlery
hardware in the Northwest. In the
chamber of commerce, jobbers' union,
and other trade organizations he was
ever pushing and enterprising MEM
Der, always alert to the vast interests
of the city. AS the result of an actively
prosecuted business, he accumulated a
fortune, estimated at 100000. which
was largely invested in his business
and real estate. He was also stock
holder and member of the board of di-
rectors of the German-American bank.
He was an active member of st. Mary's
Catholic church, and being a man of
great beneyolence and the kindeSt dis
position, naturally became prominently
identified with the various charitable
institutions of the church.
Deceased was born in New York city
in 1884, and was consequently fifty
five years of age. His father, John A.
Hardenbergh, ID. D., noted Presby-
terrain clergyman of New York, gave
his son a thorough business educa-
ton and early in life he entered active
business pursuits. In the district
known as the swamp" the great
leather mart Of New York. he acquired
the first experience in the business of
his life in the establishment of his
brother-in-law, Loring Andrews; and
in the year of 1854 he established
business at Chicago. which be
continued up to the time of his arrival
in st. Paul. His whole life was devoted
to the line of trade in which he acquired
his wealth. and only within the last
three or four years, from failing health,

UNITING BRICKLAYERS.
An Attempt to Agree Upon a Days
Work,

A mass meeting was held last evening
al Knights of Labor hall with view to
peffecting arrangements whereby the
bricklayers could unite in one organiza-
ton for mutual protection. At present
there is in the city branch of the
Bricklayers' and MaSons' International
Union of America, whose organization
does not permit more than nine hours
per day or less than DO cents per hour.
AS stated by various members, they
have the protection and assistance of
all the other unions in the United
States and Canada in case of strike,
when married men were paid 81 a week
and single men s.. There is also a
purely local organization, whose rules
prohibit strikes and whose men
may work for any wages and
for any number of hours they deem fit.
A number of members of the local
union have applied for membership in
the international union al d have been
refused admission on account of fines
registered against them. The Senti-
of the latter organization seemed to be
almost unanimously in favor of admit
ting any members of the other union, or
of admitting the union entire, and
resolution to that effect was passed. A
committee was appointed by John
Brown, president of the international
union, to confer with similar commit
tee to be appointed by the president of
mo. g." as the local union is called. In
reference to all analgamation and to
adjust the hours of labor. This COM
mittee consists of Messrs. j. Brown, Dun
bar, Maxwell and McDermid. A discus
sion took place on the advantages of nine
or ten hours as days work. and per-
sonalities were freely INDUCED in, al
though the discussion was character
lied by the best of good humor through
out. President Burke, of the local
union, will appoint his committee at
the meeting of the union Feb.9, and a
Joint conference will then take place.
MIR. McDermid explained very forcibly
the origin of the nine-hour movement,
saying that it was first instituted in
order to give work to number of men
who otherwise would otherwise have
starved. and this was the principle upon
which the international union did bust
ness. Charges were made that the
local union was controlled by con-
tractors, but they were strenuouSly de-
MED by members of that union
