Croker's Strategem and Tom ftdt's ne

.ial Corre,Doadence Of The Free Pfess
NEW York, Nov. 5, 1891.

Special Correspondence Of Inc fTee A''S''
New YORK, Nov. 3, 1891.
Dear Free Press Richard Croker deliver
ed battle to Thomas c. Plat in the recent
great tug of war in the State of New York
which stamps the Tammany chieitaln as
one of the greatest political leaders since
Andrew Jackson. A lot of wealthy New
England parvenus and tub-thumping sensa-
tional preachers in the city Il regret to say
one of them, and the most thorough black
guard of the lot, halls from North Carolina
or somewhere in the South had been turn
ing up their noses and uttering hysterical
cries against Tammany. The old Tory COL
ony in New York and the papers in their
interest raised the shout of down with
Tammany," and Plat and Fassetr organic
ed the Republican campaign on that issue
solely and alone.
Meantime Mr.. Croker, the silent man OF
18th street, finding Plat and Fassett inva'
ding the Tammany strongholds in this city,
quietly organized a campaign OF counter
invasion, and the Republican strongholds OF
the interior became the camping ground OF
Democratic orators from Tammany Hail.
The result was, Tammany rolled up $4,000
or more majority in this city for Flower,
while the Republican counties up the coun-
try gave Fassett so per cent. and in some
cases 100 per cent less votes than they gave
for Warner Miller their gubernatorial can
didate three years ago
The outcome is Democratic victory
which has presidential proportions in Its
magnitude and sweep. Nobody expected
this strategem, for hitherto Richard Croker
was only regarded as 4 good tactician in
handling his forces and an admirable leader
in local battles. But now he looms up as
man of genius, striking the enemy in the
rear and coming down to Harlem river with
poor Fassetts scalp in his belt from the
rural districts which the Republicans be-
lieved impregnable.
Mr.. Cleveland, too, as well as Governor
Hill has rendered magnificent service Why
on earth does not some sincere friend, and
not flatterer or sycorhant, tell Cleveland
that his anti.silver crusade will bar the
doors of the White House against him with
the wrench of Fate if he persists in forcing
that issue. He is very intelligent states
man, but on the silver question he is misled
or ignorant, and none of his friends have
the courage to tell him so. Defeat awaits
any man with his views on the silver ques-
ton, no matter by whom nominated.
Yours truly, j.

ultation AZ the National last night. 1T
assures the Democracy of triumph in New
York in '92. he continued, "and fairly puts
Iowa and Massachusetts, in the category oil
doubtful states when the great national bat
,is comes ON. Then look at Maryland
There's scarcely parallel to the victory
we've won there, which is also an almost
unprecedented personal triumph for Sena'
tor German. Only two counties in the entire
State carried by the Republicans

ried in 81 will be ours again, besides at
least half the votes of Michigan. There
i one far western State, too, that count on

Il is undoubtedly Democratic. Besides
have great faith in our ability to carry more
than one New England State that has hith-
erto gone for the opposition.
As TO Presidential candidates, its rather
too far ahead to discuss that now. During

elusion that Mr.. Cleveland was still prime

is in the South. l think if the delegation
from his own State favors him in the ma

But if factiond differences in New YORK
preyent a unanimous support OF citizen oi
the Empire State BY his own people, then
the chances are that tho nominee VIII DC
taken from some other State. The eandi-
date must give every assurance OF his ability
TO carry New York That is sine qua moi"
and if the Hill and Cleveland forces do not
re. together and settle all disputes, the par
~ will have TO look elsewhere for an avail
able leader"
