tied Mayor ard Grover Cleveland he de-
ie. for President" Says Mr.. Gilroy. If he
really means il, there's thing certain
which he and Mr.. Cleveland are in perfect
accord.
The Republican candidates for Mayor, Register,
Additional Surrogate, County Clerk, President
Of the Board Of Aldermen, for the Assembly and
for the Board OF Aldermen in this city repre-
sent their party. The Tammany candidates for
all those Offices represent solely the personal
preferences of Mr.. Croker and Mr.. Gilroy. Who
really govern this city to-day? Mr. Croker and
Mr. Gilroy. Who intend TO keep this city nm
der an iron heel as long as Tammony Hall
holds together? Mr. Croker and Mr.. Gilroy.
They have overridden and flung aside the pres
cnt Mayor because lie not sufficiently servilc.
These two men-Mr. Croker and Mr.. Giroy-will
control all municipal affairs until the people
arise in wrath ard throw over the dis2raccful
tyranny to which they now submit IL Is al
most incredible that the chief city of the New
World should allow the Tammany autocracy to
continue in power. Mr. Elnstein, in his letter
Of acceptance has protested against this shameful
Tammany domination in most pithy and forcl-
bic terms.
Mr. Rush G. Hawkins has written very dis
trcssful letter 10 somebody. complaining that " the
present Administration forgot the great pivotal
fact that it presided over a Nation.' The real
grievance we suspect, is that it forgot the great
pivotal fact" of Rush {. Hawkins.
Congressman Burrows, Of Michigan has been
making speeches in eleven different States this
fall. lIr regards the outlook rs hopeful for
the Republicans everywhere. As TO New-iork. he
found that many Democrats attended the Re-
publican meetings which he addressed, ard ne
believes that the business questions involved IN
the campaign will be decisive in determining the
result here The opinion of a cear-cyed West
rrnrr on this matter is highly valuable, and Mr..
Bnrrowss representations are entitled 10 special
consideration. Certain it is that the great manu-
featuring interests of the Empire State cannot
afford 10 aid and abct a party whose success
means the abandonment Of the Protection policy.
The Republicans of rural New-York are about
TO repeat their splendid achievement Of many pre-
vious contests and submergc the Democratic hosts
below the Harlem. When they are aroused they
are invrcible and they are aroused this year
The registration tells the story.
The Democratic political prophets are making
their claims In definite figures which may bring
them 10 grief in the near future. In Brooklyn
four years ago. for example, Boss Mclaughlin
predicted Democratic majority Of $4,000; II
proved T. BIZ little more than half as large.
Don VI. Dickinson is now talking about Cleve-
land carrying Indiana by $1,000 10 10000. and
Ncw-Nork State by 10000 Talk is extremely
cheap, and men who talk too much have been
known TO repent it bitterly
The vast silence on the subject Of Mr.. Egan
which some OF his Democratic detractors are now
ashduously preserving is one Of the most strik-
ing and Suggestive features OF the campaign. But,
as il happens, their guns spiked too late
Tho brooklyn Eagle" reads Mr.. Sheehan a
severe lecture because. IA chairman Of the Demo
cratic campaign committee, he has PRESUMED u
advise il and other Democratic papers not 70 pub
sh advertisements in the interest of the Republi-
can PARTY The Eagle" tells Mr. Sheehan plainly
that II is fully capable of managing its own
business and looking after its own advertising.
IL warm. him that he has gone outside OF his
legitimate business, and suggests that he VIII
soon be- exercising supervision over the news and
editorial columns OF the Democratic press. All
this is drastic enough, but The Eagle drives
the matter home by saying:
Thi, +, not the first time Democratic politicians
have tried "regIlatc7 this paper. II Is the second
time. ON the former occasion the founder ~ this
gallon Of The Eagle was to the people: that 1t
alone depended on them. and that the principal con,
tributon, the Democratic party made to The Eagle
in the form of police items
There is no doubt about the origin Of the ma
jorty of the police items still; what is refreshing
is to have the truth frankly told by a Demo
cratic journal. Mr.. Sheehan should promptly
withdraw his offensive remarks.
If certain Tammany district leaders, whose afro
ciouS crimes in past campaigns in providing and
handling Democratic repeaters and colonizers, and
lin practising election frauds of all kinds
torous do not stop telling faschoods about we'll
known Republicans, il may be desirable TO lay
before the public full details OF the records OF such
leaders.
Mr. Carl SEIZURE in speech on Thursday used
this language: With a shamclessncss for which
there has been precedent in this country the
Republican party managers have called the most
notorious experts Of corruption from far and near
TO do their work" Now, what are tho facts?
Never in the history Of this Republic has
campaign been fought with finer regard for law
and morality than has this campaign by the
Republican managers Not one cent has been eX
pended without voucher showing to whom and
for what it has gone Ii is nothing less than
crime for man 10 talk AZ Mr.. Schurz talks.
40 one who reads Mr.. Emsteins letter Of ac-
ccptancc can doubt Ills sincerity, his honesty or
his courage. lie is willing 10 beard the Tammany
tiger in his lair and to clutch him by the throat
If Mr. Enstcin is elected Mayor, the cleansing OF
the Augcnn stables will be duplicated in New
York No one familiar with the city can question
the need Of Just this thing.
notwithstanding the outrageous gcrrymander-
ing of the Assembly districts in Kings County by
the Democratic Supervisors, who cndeavorcd 10
render the return OF IA Democratic member al
