The Executive Committee OF the Republi.
can State Committee will have the final meet
ing OF tho campaign at the Fifth Avenue Hotel
this morning. The committee has had several
meetings at the hotel since that extraordinary
ticket was nominated Mt Syracuse. but at none
were moro than half dozen m en- bers present.
1t has been exceedingly difficult to get the
out-ot-towners to attend and In view OF theso
previous disappontments. the campaign
managers have made more than ordinary
efforts to have a larger attendance this
morning Several OF the committeeman on were
in town last night and for the first time during
the campaign Coroner Hackett's bureau
hadn't chairs enough to go around. Ex-
United States Marshal Louis r. Payn OF Colum-
bia county put in his first appearance. The
others present have made the Coroner's
bureau lounging spot after dinner. and
nothing significant therefore. could be at
tachod to their presence.
Coroner Hackett and that genial gentleman.
william Brookneld. Chairman OF the State
Committee. were convinced that victory was
in the air." doubling Repu blican remarked
that for several campaigns back victory had
been In the air" just about four or hve even-
ings before the votes were counted on election
night. 1t has then turned out, the doubling
one added. that victory was in the air and no.
whore else. Whatever can be said In criticism
OF the Republican cam paiEners. 1t 10 certainly
marked trait with them to keep up the bluff
bravely until the lights are turned out on elec-
tion night
With larger number Of Repu bli cans In
town. 1t was possible to get a better idea OF
the situation from their point Of view. A SUN
reporter. in conversation with some OF the
ore practical members Of the party, learned
that there was widespread criticism OF the
manner In which their campaign has been
conducted. One OF the savage ones said 1t has
bssn more or less OF waste paper campaign.
and that little work calculated to bring about
practical results has been done. Very many
Republicans are dissatisfied because Judge
Maynard has been made the absolute and
only Issue Of their fight 1t has been remarked
time and again that the candidates nom mated
at Syracuse have not even been mentioned.
and least OF all has the name Of Edward T.
Bartlett. Judge Msynard'd opponent. been
heard. Mr.. Bartlett started In last evening to
correct this. He made his hrst visit to Coroner
Hackett's bureau and was cordially greeted.
But tho friends Of the other candidates are

made on the candidates forJudge Of the Court
OF Appeals. They have been no moro consid-
cred than II they were in Sitka
Just an evidence Of how far this has gono
e1-Congressman Henry G. Burleigh. in talking

has cut in his hat. predicting Judge Maynard's
defeat, said also: Il believe. also that A. H.

and q shade of discontinue came over the face
OF the statesman from Whitehall.
A sturdy old-time Republican said:
Tho country leaders have done little or
no work in this campaign. 1t is an of year.
and it Is always difficult to get out our voters
the Republieans all over over the the State had s not ),
learned that linked to our cause this year were

on a ground swell OF Democratic disa Election
to defeat Judge Maynard. and that's about all
has been done, II, is true, that ip one docu.

victory in the air. there Is complete dem oraliza-
ton among m ost Of the interior leaders. 1t is
not necessary to say anything about the utter
Generalization that exists in the New York
Republican county organization.
TX. Congressman Burleigh took an entirely
different ground. Early in the day he wanted
to bet 5000 that Judge Maynard would be de-
feated. When Democrat told him later that
there was n $500 bet ready for him at any
time that he would not bet $4,000 on the re-
suit. Mr. Burleigh sHfd that he was not ready
TO go deep as that. Mr. Burleigh says that
waves which overlook tassett two years ago
and Harrison and Reid last year. He says
that the Democrats should not rely on any
such condition o! affairs on Tuesday next.
Mr.. Durleigh predicts that gains Tor Edward

Oneida. Albany. and Kings counties After
these comments he went over to the Hoffman
House and called on Senator Murphy. Mr..
Burleigh bantered the Democratic Chairman
on the situation and offered to bet an 80 silk
tile that Judge Maynard would be defeated.
Mr.. Murphy took him in a wink. and then as
sured the Republican, warrior that the entire
Democratic State ticket would be- surely
elected.
