II was = matter OF speculation with many
when Lawyer J' 3, ph II. Choats told the diners
ats bt Patrick's Jay banquet year ago that
| the Irish OF America ought to go back to Ire
| land and try to govern that country, how far
| he was talking In humorous vein. Those
Irishmen who felt Indignant at his remarks
then will be sure that they were delivered In
all seriousness after the speech which Mr..
Chosts made last night.
Mr. Choate. despite his labors In the Laid
law-Sage case. was one Of the star orators at
mass meeting held In Cooper Union under the
auspices Of the Committee OF Thirty for the
purpose Of getting out a full enrolment Of
Republicans for Its local org anlzatlon to- night
In hts speech. Mr.. Choate said;
We. OF this city. are tired OF having Gov
eminent given to us By any one man or
squad Of men. We have submitted too long to
the control OF handful OF foreigners who have
no stake In the SOIL and who are using the
countless treasures Of this clty for political II
not for personal advantage"
This declaration was received with loud
demonstrations OF approval throughout the
hall but there were signs OF uneasiness In the
faces OF members Of the Committee OF Thirty.
Some Kisses were also heard. These perhaps
suggested to Mr.. Choate that he had gone q
triae too far. and he added:
I'VE should be Just 40 tired II the mon were
not foreigners We should be Just as tired
oven were they Republicans"
This sentiment did not seem to call for 30
many cheers as the frat
The meeting was quite as big as that OF the
Milhollsnd Republicans last month. and the
crowd was held longer. because the Commit
tee OF Thirty had more and bigger attractions
to offer 1t 10 doubtful II there were more yo-
tors at last nights meeting than at MIR. Mil
hollands. as two or three hundred women
were scattered about through the audience
The members Of the Committee Of Thirty
from Chairman Cornelius N. Bliss down to
Secretary Ernest Hall. were prominent on the
platform. Jacob NJ. Patterson. who. with his
friends. will furnish most OF the mon for the
enrolment tonight, kept in the background,
standing behind pillar back OF the platform.
Johnny Simpson. less m Oldest occupied front
row near Gen. Wager Swayne. who was
Chairman Of the meeting. Most OF the other
district leaders OF the old machine who have
not Joined the Milholland organization were
disposed about the hall.
There had been evidently n prearran gsd plan
not to speak directly OF the Milholland organi-
zation and mono Of the speakers mentioned
that gentleman's name. They could not how
ever refrain from covert illusions to the fac
tion fight In this CITY. and one enthusiastic
man In tho audience. who did not know
that Milholland's name had been tabooed By
tho Committee OF Thirty. kept shouting It
derisively until silenced By the deprecatory
chances OF the gentlemen on tho platform.
Then he ceased and called for three cheers for
