the plan because it emanates from the
Central Committee, in which Davis
and the old ring crowd still exercise
some influence. Anything that ema-
mates from these men is abhorrent to
good democrats, of all grades. The
purest men in the county become OBJ
jects of suspicion in their eyes il they
figure at the choice of the old b osses.
The feeling is unreasonable, utterly
so in the present instance, but it ex-
lists all the same, and to ignore it is
simply to do the ostrich act.
1t looks, now, as if a very bad split
in the party were imminent. This is
most deplorable. Any and every step
ought to be taken to avert such a dis
aster; but we do ubt if the Central
Committee could take any step which
would have the desired effect.
The plan of that body now stands
as the regular plan OF %reorgani-
cation, and as 1t is essentially good,
every democrat should stand by it. il
the Central Committee insists upon
it. But We believe now more than
aver that the way out of the trouble
has not yet been found. We adhere
to our own idea that a broad, all-in-
Guiding aud triumphant reorgani-
cation can only be accom- plished
through invoking the aid of the State
organization. We believe a State
Convention is badly needed. Why
does not the Hudson Central Com
mittee solicit the State Committee to
call one. and then solicit the conven-
ton to start the machin cry of local
reorganization
No one can cavil at this plan.
