'eiis the "hoie story OF the election
WHERE THE WORK WAS DONE.
Col. Browns friends are by no means
satisfied with the treatment that gentle
man received at the hands of Tammanv
Hall. In the Fourteenth district A much
larger proportion of the Democrats are
in Tammany Hall than In the Fifteenth.
and the falling off must of course have
come from Tammany votes. Personally,
Col. Brown is popular in the district
and his opponent at the opening of
the campaign knew less than 100 men
there personally. Beyond little fight
that the firemen and policemen made
against him, there was no reason on the
surface why Col. Brown should not have
run as well as Mr.. Straus. But lie did
not, and it was in the localities of the
heaviest Tammany vote that he lost
most. ID was rumnred in the district
Saturday night that Brown was marked
for slaughter by Tammauy because of
his refusal last winter to take orders
and because he voted against Edward
Murphy for United States Senator.
The vote Yesterday shows that Tam.
many got out its machine vote. and
there let the matter rest. In the Nine
teenth Assembly district, which gave
Fellow 2,O0O majority in 1872, Colonel
brown. got 10 majority. Yet Tammany
men claim that the Nineteenth district
Is more strongly Democratic than it was
Two years ago, and there IS compare
lively small independent Democratic
vote.
In the twentieth Assembly district,
an especially strong Tammany baili-
wick, presided over by Contractors
Thomas j: Dunn and Thomas Il. Grim
Minis, Colonel Brown got but Az
