here to-day dealt with the traitors BY all over
whrlming vote the delegates not only indorscl the
ucion Of the regular organization. the Republican
State Committee, IN its dehunc:ation OF the two
| Assembymen, bat went to even greater lengths
| By declaring that neither Fish nor Gibbs could

words, the club men. the representatives of the
| young, vigorous clement OF the party dcal0rc
| acaHst any rcco.ition Of the claims t0 Rcpuh-
! lica;ism Of these allies OF Tamnany Hall. The
feeling against both men was bitter in the extreme

almost entirely ON belief by s.uall minority
OF the Gelcgatcs tlIa, il was better to leave the
matter entirely alone. A few friends Of Mr. Fish
