ORGANIZING A NEW REPUBLICAN CLUB.


With Republicans in districts the last CAM
paign has not been without Its good effects, the
of defeat having served to spur them on TO
newed and greater efforts. 1t has revealed where the
weak points Lack Of solid orgaization is one OF
the most conspicuous Of these. The Republicans OF The
XXId Assembly District have been quick to recognize
this important falling, and the result is the formation
OF the Onward Republican Club. Until permanent
cubrooms are established the new club Will meet
every Friday evening at Iuntleys Hall, Eighty sixth
st. and Third-ave. AL Republicans OF the XNlId
District Will be welcome.
The onward Republican Club starts as an incor-
porated body, with "a membership Of seventy-fve
earnest intelligent and wide-awake Republicans. The
members feel that with diligent work they VIII
soon compete in point of strength with older organi
cations. The officers OF the club are Louis Katzen-

Herman Miller, second vice president; Richard NJ LIP

The PLOT TO STEAL THE LEGISLAT URE
A NATTER FOR HONEST MEN IN ALL PARTIES

TO the Editor of The Tribune.
sir: / cannot doubt that there many readers
of The Tribune who panied at the political ccanery
Of the times refer especially TO the Tricks and frauds
that resorted to by INSCRIPTIONS men TO count
out candidates that elected by small majorities.
and substitute in tsler places those who failed to
secure the requisite number Of votes. To many Of
our political managers this seems to be but slight
offence, in fact quite justfabe, considering that votes
are often purchased, and that sin fairly offsets the
other. In other words, " the ends fairly justify the
meansn Without the aid Of the political tricister
the campaign is lost and the party loses power

laughs and jeers, shouts back 10 the people, pray

people looking and sharing in the results with sly
winks and mods, If not with words say: That was a

pure ballot is the life of system OF government,
and that when once its mission is performed 1t

be trfed with, be the temptation what IL may.
Destroy the sanctity Of the ballot and you have

from real human life the differences they breed

it not time that these things treated as they deserve

but with living determination that political rascates
