The Hon. Thomas Collier Plat. who edits
the Republican party OF New York. and about
100 gentlemen who edit Republican newspa-
pers in New York had a pleasant reunion yes
terday at the Fifth Avenue Hotel. Incidental
". there grew out Of this conference the
Republican Editorial Association Of the State
Of New York.
Tho association has several purposes. and
since Mr.. Pintt is interested some OF them are
secret. The one purpose given out in advance
Is the cementinE Of purposes among Repub-
1ican editors for the grand purpose OF re-
establishing the G. o. =. at Albany and WASH
ington. Another purpose conGded by an ed
itor to a Sun reporter is the rapRemont OF
certain business matters between MIR. platt
and his friends and the editors. This includes
the eternal abolition Of the campaign weekly
Republican newspaper from the territory OF
the country weekly.
We will give ND our brains for the success
and glory Of the Republican party. but we'll be
damned II we give up our bread" said the edi-
tor.
That there was another dark and mysterious
end for this gathering to shane was made
known when It was announced that in Albany
there was mine-iust what sort OF n mine was
not stated-that should be exploded. To do
this II was proposed to start a Adjective bureau
as an adjunct OF the association. hire one man
to investigate. and increase the dues 81 a year.

1t was noticed that but few editors were
from the larger cities: there were none from
Albany. Rochester. Utica or Syracuse. and but
one from Buffalo. Mr.. +. H. Butler OF the Ne,es
