The growing opposition TO Senator
Hill in New York indicates that he has
overresched himself and excited deter
mined and formidable opposition on q
matter OF minor Importance. This seems
to be the result Of their apprehensions Of
what he will do, not imply to the small
piece OF unfairness In petty politics that
he has done. The object Of Senator Hill
is TO send solid delegation for Hill or
subject to his behest to the
Chicago convention. Senator Hill
has perfect right 70 aspire
to the nomination for Presidency and a
perfect right to control the machine
politics OF New York So as TO defeat the
the nomination Of Cleveland. But both
show poor judgment. Even II Hill we're
to secure the delegation from New York
10 il very doubtful IL be could sesurs the
nomination from the convention, and
then he could not be elected. The Demo
Gratis West and South would not vote fer
him with any cordiality and many would
not vote for him at az all. Hill cannot
secure the solid delegation from New
York without triekery; he could not
secure the nomination from the conven-
ton without bulldozing it with the threat
Of losing the large and important vote Of
New York. Rather than that the Demo
cratic party shall submit TO such indigni-
tiles It is better that It should lose New
York and the Presidency too But the
party will gain by defylng Hill and risk
in New York. It is not sure Of New
York with Hill. The election may be
thrown again as It was thrown in 1883
