Is 1T BLUFF

When the Republican Convention met
full member OF the party warned It
against over-confdence. He was sneered
at.
Senator Hill opened his speech at the
assembly of the Democratic Convention
yesterday with a vigorous attack on
what he calls the annual and moss
covered game OF political blum" the Re.
publicans are accustomed to play, and
In which they are engaged this year
more earnestly than ever.
The changes in the situation within
the past week prove the sagacity Of the
Republican who cautioned his friends
against over-confidence. A very little
reflection will satisfy any unprejudiced
mind that the Democracy will make
fatal blunder II 1t attributes the indi-
cations of popular dissatisfaction with
the present dominant party in the Gov
eminent to the Republican annual and
moss-covered game OF political bluff"
1t is true that the Republican victory
last year was won not by Republican
strength, but by Democratic weakness.
1t is true the total vote OF the State
was nearly three hundred thousand
short OF Its full figure. 1t is true there
was open and avowed revolt against
Democratic management.
But why was the Democracy weak?
Why did It's voters absent themselves
from the ballot-box? Why was there
a revolt against the candidates -?
Democratic misdeeds and blunders. and
not Republican bluff" and the beat
Ing OF tom-toms," were the cause.
III the Democrats complete their work
at Saratoga In such a manner as to con-
frm the growing belief in the sincerity
OF their reform professions; II to the
last the action OF the party is left free
and untrammelled by machine methods
and boss dictation: II the nominations
are in themselves a guarantee OF pure
government. the result will be different
from that OF last year. II the Con-
Ventlon follows up the retirement OF
Flower and Murphy and Croker by n
practical proof in the sincerity of the in
tention OF the party to respect public
sentiment by selecting such candidates
as the people demand. It will insure
success in November.

WAS 1T ENOUGH

a young rufiian, too full of LIQUOR,
raised dangerous disturbance at
Miners Eighth Avenue Theatre during
yesterdays matinee. He jumped to his
feet In the front row of the gallery Just
after the performance commenced ut
tered Volley OF oaths and expressed a
desire to whip any one In the house.
When an officer endeavored to remove
him. he proved tough customer and
nearly succeeded In throwing the police
man over the railing into the orchestra,
or course there was almost n panic In
the theatre, and It took two officers to
remove the offender. He was taken to
Jefferson Market Police Court and fined
$40 or ten days Imprisonment.
The punishment is not enough for the
onense. The rufiian came near COM

death. or at least serious injury, II the

Their Employees Will Now Make
So or 50 a Week.
Others of the Contractors Are Being
Urged to Submit.

The Executive Committee OF the Shirt

The Contractors Association sent a re-
quest to the Executive Committee OF the
Union that the cooperative shops be
abolished, as they were detrimental to
the interests Of the contractors because
they were competitors. These co-opera-
tive shops are formed by members OF
the Union and have no middleman to
take away the profits of their labor.
The contractors thought 1t would be I'M
fair to ask them to pay the new scale
If the cooperative shops were contin-
ued.
The unions committee would not dis
cuss the matter, nor give an answer for
the reason that the men and women
who run the cooperative shops are
members OF the union, who have had to
contend against the competition and
starvation wages heretofore paid by
the contractors.
Subsequently committee of the con-
tractors announced to the union commit
tee that the Contractors Association
had split. One half of the members, 1t
