WAR IN THE DEMOCRACY.
Cleveland and the Hnl-Murphy Machin,
in New York.

Cleveland and the HflI-Murphy Machine
in New York.
The leaders of the Cleveland element
of the democracy in New York consider
the election of Edward Murphy direct
assault on the head of the incoming
administration, and they announce
themselves ready to take up the gage
of battle. There can be no doubt that
they have diagnosed the situation cor
rectly in this respect. Murphy's selec-
tion for the senatorial nomination was
an evidence of the unfriendliness of
the New York democratic machine to
Cleveland. He and all his friends un-
derstood it to be such, and they pro-
tested against it from the start. As a
democratic leader Murphy had been
opposed to Cleveland for years past.
He fought Cleveland in the primaries
which selected delegates to the SNAP
state convention of last February, and
in the national convention he en-
ployed all the resources and the infiu-
ence of the machine to defeat him and
to put Hill up instead.
Cleveland's protest against Murphy
candidacy changed this unfriendliness
into open and active hostility. The
protest was answered by the nomina-
tion by the practically unanimous vote
of the legislative caucus. Thus the
head of the new administration will
have the solid senatorial delegation OF
his state, and that state the most impor.
tant in the union, arrayed against him
from the beginning of his term to the
end. Hill holds office until Cleveland
steps down, and Murphy stays two
years later. The possibilities fol
trouble for president under such con
ditions are virtually limitless. Repub-
lican experience has shown how com
pletely president can be hampered
by few resolute and resourceful sen
ators Of his own party when they sci
themselves out to do it. The inclina
tion as well as the provocation to such
course being present in the case Of
Senators Hill and Murphy, the oppor
tunities will soon come to hand o1
themselves, Or they will be created by
the plotters.
Thus the irrepressible conflict be-
York, which is about to begin in q
practical shape, cannot fail to extend
throughout the party all over the coun
try. 1t promises to be another Gar
feld-Conlling feud, with similar disas
trous consequences to the party il
which it RACES. After the election il
1850 the republicans seemed to be gooo
for long career of unbroken power
They had recovered the house of repre-
sentatives, and they imagined thai
they. were going to hold on to it fol
many congresses to come; they hat
never lost the presidency. and as they
did not in the year of the Grant-Blaint
rivalry in the nominating convention
they felt they could read their title
clear to it for dozen years to come a
4 least. Dissensions in their camp, how
ever, blasted all their expectations

COMPOSITION OF THE SENATE.
Democratic Forces Uncertsin End Di-
vided.

Democratic Forces Uncertain rnd d.
vided.
Ii begins to seem probable that the
democrats NAV not elect senators
enough to secure the organization OF
the senate. A recent telegram from
Montana states that three populists
who hold the balance of power declare
they will not vote for either demo-
cratic candidates, nor for anyone who
may be nominated by the democratic
caucus, and dispatch from democratic
sources states that there is great dan
ger that these populists may soon de-
eide to work with the republicans In
that case the democrats would lose
one of the senators upon whom they
have most confidently counted.
The situation is substantially the
same in Wyoming. According to dis
patches. the five populists have ''had a
revelation" and have suddenly walked
to realization of the fact that they
hold the balance of power, and have
made propositions to the democrats
which the latter have thus far de-
clined to entertain. If these fail, the
populists have proposed TO the re-
publicans that they will vote for Mr.
Clark, the republican congressman, who
agrees with them in favoring free
silver. The democrats evidently fear
that such combination will deprive
them of the expected senator from
Wyoming.
In California also the populists hold
I,a 1,o1 Of, nd Ix-
two of their votes are needed to give
the democrats a majority, it is un-
certain whether any can be obtained
for the candidate nominated. There
has been much talk of a possible dead
lock, and the populists at present seem
disposed to stand together for their own
candidate. Nothing is yet clear except
that the election of the democrat, con-
sidered certain short time ago, is now
rather more doubtful.
The democrats have not expected to
succeed in Kansas, and the revolution
ary course of the populists there has
driven the democratic members to act
with the republicans. 1t is safe to say
that no person claiming to be senator
from Kansas will be admitted by the
senate, unless the only legal house in
Kansas participates in his election.
Unless the democrats can secure at
least three Of the senators from these
states they will not be able to organ
ize the senate even with the aid OF the
vice presidents vote. 1t appears from
the latest dispatches rather improba-
BILE that they will secure as many.
The populists in that case will have the
balance OF power, and some of them,
having been elected by republican
votes may act with the republicans in
organization, though probably not on
important matters of legislation. Such
a division of forces would be regretted
on many accounts, for it would again
give the democrats an excuse for fail
ing to do the things they are pledged to
do. The republicans would be unable
to carry any legislation, however need
full, unless it should be approved by
some other senators, by the democratic
house and by the president. But they
would nevertheless have much power
to prevent mischief.-N. Y. Tribune.
