A NON-PARTISAN FAIR VA NTED.
CHORUS OF REPUBLICAN NEWSPAPERS.
THE SENATE CLEARLY IN THE RIGHT

From The Buffalo Commercial Advertiser.
The Republicans (of this state stand by the Senate
in this crisis, and they look with deep regret upon
the men elected by their votes who nave enlisted IN
Captain FishS squad. The Worlds Fair project
can be made national project, free from the faint
and complications OF politics. and might be such If all
the Republican Assemblymen would stand with the
Republican senators and add enough Republicans to
the list of Commissioners 10 make that body strictly
non partisan. Possibly tho Governor would then
veto the bill. BIT the New York Republicans would
rather see the Worlds Fair 10 Washington than 10
have il started AID maintained as powerful adjunct
Of the Tammany machine in Ncw-hOrk city. Let US
