LACK OF CORDIALITY BETWEEN CIIT
AND STATE REPUBLICANS

The resonant echoes OF the row at Syracuse
between the country and city Republicans
were heard all day yesterday in Coroner
Hackett's bureau in the Fifth Avenue Hotel.
1t was significant Of what everybody has
known in New York State for the last ten
years. that tho Republicans OF this State would
rather throttle their opponents in the party
than eat. At Syracuse. 1t will be remembered.
Jake Patterson and Sabine Smith got UP a
fracas over the nomination OF E 7. Bartlett for
Judge OF the Court Of Appeals on the ground
that they had not been consulted
Patterson had Smith nominated. and the
Convention rolled over him. ruflling his pin
feathers and forcing from him the declaration.
never expected from him. that he wouldn't be
q candidate for office again. not even for
Coroner. Patterson and Smith determined on
revenge. and on their return they bumped
heads and. with the aid OF Frej Gibbs. evolved
that wonderful county ticket which was nom
mated at tho Grand Opera House on Tuesday
night.
Neither Patterson nor Smith during their
deliberations would have anything to do with
the country leaders ut the Fifth Avenue Hotel
bureau. Gibbs stood afar off and called
Hackett and his friends farmers. He said:
These farmers come down here every year
and think they know som ething about New
York county politics. They ought to be on q
tan bark in circus" 1t Is Just possible that
Sabine Smith had one little talk with Hackett.
but the Republican county ticket was not men
toned during the interview.
Neither Patterson nor Smith would give an
inklng Of the county ticket to William Brook
field. Chairman OF the State Committee. and
even whom Mr.. Patt arrived from Chicago late
on Monday night and was on the ground all
day Tuesday, Patterson and Smith would have
nothing to say to him about their county
ticket They declared that they had not been
consulted about tho State ticket and they
wouldn't have anything to say with the moguls
OF the State Committee concerning their
county ticket
