M'DERMoTTs PosITIoNN
Leading Democrats w4os have fought ui-
dey'fAe leadership of Allan. L. McDermott do
no< helieve that BE will recognize the Re-
fsfuT Committee as thes legal democratic
Comnittee%@of thes county, even toa get
square, t5 use cofloquiaf phrase, with
Bob Da&is and the other Benedict Arpoids
Of The parry By doingsfhis he woulds in G
lhesSiHe, they say, be cutting off his nose to
spite His face. Mcpermott said tosa apersenal
friend, my informant says, that he v Ill hot
recognize either conlmittee till after he sees
the result of the Conference. If the Central
Committee does not evidence desire for
unity he viii recognize the Reforplers, and
it, on the otlser hand, the Reformeis act too
stiff necked he win refuse to recognize them.
sALAUGHABLE EXHIBITION.
A laughable exhibition of the whole mat
ter is the action Of eBopp Davis. He is try
ing to get in out OF the wet, but the path has
become soslippery that his forced acrobatS
feats place him in the same category win
nj, Mt the
has few more trained donlSeys to assist him
Id the Rexhibition than the average circus
clown possesses Like the Eclown, however,
who once Ia while says something sensible,
Davis has q scheme sof consolidation which
has a little merit, but again like the clown
and his sensible remark, if Davis tries to
push the scheme himself il wall be laughed
at AS bait--wiiich the jailer naintends lit
|Hfor-it is Objectionable, but as a proposition
to to be carried out by such men as ~. r. G.
Young, George Record John P. Feshey and
Williard Fisk, IL is good thing
IN TIM PROPOSITIONS =
The proposition is that eachof the commit
tees--the Central and the Reform name
three committeeman from each Assembly
district. These six committeeman ii each
district to chose Hader, and the seven of
each Assembly district to form a Democratic
County Committee OF seventy seven. This
committee to remain in existence till after
the fall election, in the uieantiine to aadopt
constitution and bylaws and provide for the
election of their SUCCESSORS.
GOOD IDEA, IT --- s
ssThe plan proposed, = said a well known
democrat this morning, rs feasible one,
and has been considered by number OF
democrats, It can be made the vehicle Of
ffdsffffp tine party councils OF such men as
Davis and others who have disgraced the
party by their actions. Let Chairman E. f.
C. Young select the three from each district
for the Central Democratic Committee, and
Chairman Garretson do the same for the Re
formers. Then we will have committee of
upright, honest, fearless democrats, who
will do their duty to the party, and rescue it
from the low position it now occupies. On
the other hand, if this is a scheme of Davis
to keep his hold on the party, then, say, re-
ject it, and let both factions continue the
fight for supremacy"
ANOTHER SCHEME TALKED OF
Another rumor in circulation this morning
was that the leaders of the two committees
have already met and prepared a scheme
which will be launched before the Confer
ence Committee. The scheme, they say, is
that both committees shall be wiped out and
a new committee will be formed, consisting
of member from each precinct in the
several districts, and that these new commit
teemen will agree upon district leader.
The district leaders then will constitute an
Executive Committee, in whose charge the
call of primaries, enrolment and other de-
tails will remain.
THEY DESIRE UNION.
Mr.. E. F. G. Young when asked this
morning what plans he had, said Il am 60
ing into that meeting tomorrow evening
with only one desire, and that is the union
of the party. have no scheme and have
not conferred with Judge Garretson on any"
Mr. Andrew J. Post, who is a prominent
member of the Reform Committee, laughed
