THE SITUATION IN NEW YORK.

The New York Herald of oct 25th,
contains this comment ON the with
drawal of the county Democracy's To-
cal ticket:
"The sensible Withdrawal of their
local ticket by the county Democrats
leaves the Democracy of Manhatten
Island united and solid.
"Localiy the move will have little or
no effect. Nationally, as Mr.. Croker
said in the Herald yesterday, "it will
etlectually disprove to the country the
Republican assertion that the Demo.
Gratis of New York are split into fac
tons and that the Democratic national
ticket is to suffer in consequence. In
stead of that the party at large will
see the Democracy of New York firm
ly united for one obiect-tO elect
Cleveland and Stevenson-and oubor-
dinating everything else to that In
other words, it is notice to the Demo-
Gratis as well as the Republicans Of the
nation that there is no split or faction
division or difference in the Demo-
cratic ranks of this great Democratic
stronghold, but that the party is unit
ed, harmonious and enthusiastic, and
will cast a solid vote for the national
ticket on election day.
"If Mr.. Cleveland is elected he may
thank Tammany. Whatever Republi
can managers may say for publication,
they evidently realize that the
loss of New York means for
them the loss of the election; that a
Democratic majority in this state
means Democratic majority in the
Electoral College. 1t is obvious to
any one that Democratic majority |
depends upon the vote of Tammany,
and it is equally evident that Tamma-
ny has gone into the fight with the
determination to win. Hence the
election of Mr.. Cleveland will be Il |
victory at the polls.
"Alreadv Tammany has made itself
in this campaign a record which must
command the respect Of its foes as
well as the admiration Of its friends,
Croker is the first Tammany
leader to show himself what such
chieftain should bean honest man
and gentleman. Everybody knows
that Mr.. Cleveland was not the choice
Of Tammany at Chicago, and every
body must see that it is now support
ing him with loyalty and zeal whose
genuineness is beyond all doubt or
suspicion.
Iong ago Mr. Croker gave out the
word to make every effort for the Ma
tional ticket and let the local ticket
take care of itself. This sentiment has
been echoed by Mr.. Gilroy, who heads
the local ticket, and by other leaders.
Nor has this determination to fight for
the National ticket been shown by
mere words or professions 1t has
been proved by deeds. A local ticket
of such a character was nominated as
to secure unity on the National ticket.
A registration was worked up beyond
hitherto known for the first
two days. Last Tuesday nights en-
thusiastic rally leaves no room for
doubt that Tammany means to have
every Democratic voter not yet regis
tered on the list by tomorrow night,
and to get every registered Democrat
ic voter to the polls on election day.
"In short, this much abused organi-
cation is making splendid fight for
Democratic success, showing general
ship as well as loyalty and work as
well as enthusiasm. If New York
should go Republican it will not be
the fault of Tammany lfitgoes Dem
ocratic the Democracy Of the nation
may thank Mr.. Croker and his follow
ers for the most vigorous Tammany
campaign ever made in this city.
"Credit to whom credit is due. 1t
is to be hoped that Mr., Cleveland will
appreciate this if elected, and not
kick over the ladder by which he as
cended to power"
