had been made by the Good Government
Clubs or other Independent political or
ganizations to ex-senator Plat or Chair
man Lauterbach, of the Republican
County Committee. for a combination of
all the Independent forces on a county
and legislative ticket.
Both ex-senator Plat and Chairman
Lauterbach declared they had no sug-
gestion to offer and as far as they are
concerned they don't care very much
what the Good Government folks do.
They believe the majority Of Repub-
licans want a straight ticket and pres
ent plans for the County Convention
which will be held Thursday night con-
template the nomination of a straight
ticket
There may be Il postponement. how
ever, to enable all half-caste Republ-
can bodies such as the Good Govern
ment Club fellows and the German
Americans to get into line for a COM
bination. which, according to present
plans of the machine leaders. must have
a simon-pure machine head and tail.
If nominations are made on Thursday
night there will be no dearth of cand-
dates. The rosy outlook for Republican
success as the machine leaders view it
has inspired several men with lightning
rods to come out and run up their
spires.
Some Of the men talked Of for offices
are Judge Ernest Hall. James l..
Blanchard, Edwin Mitchell and Morris
Isaacs for Supreme Court Judge; Theo-
dore Aub, c. b. Page. ]. W. Hawes and
Thomas NJ. Allison for Judges of Gen
eral Sessions; Subway Commissioner
tice Taintor for County Clerk; Poo Bah
Charles H. Murray for Register; Judge
Batty, of the City Court, for the same
office. he having been appointed.
The Tammany slate has not been
decided upon. but there will not be any
lack Of candidates. Among them are
william Sohmer, for Register; County
Clerk Purroy. for the same office;
Judges Van Wyok. Newberger and
Senator Thomas A. O'Sullivan. for the
City Court; Senator Jacob A. Cantor
Gen. Martin 7. Mcmahon. Civil Justice
Goldfogle and Assistant D!strict-Attor-
ney John F. Mcintyre for Judges Of
General Sessions; Ex-Recorder Smyth
and ex-Judge Truax. for the Supreme
Court bench.
Some Of these gentlemen will be
named.
The talk among politicians relates to
the Republicans rather than to Demo-
Gratis. The Republicans will hold their
county convention on Thursday and
the followers of the various factions Of
that organization are concerned over
the prospects for q straight or kanga-
roo ticket.
The Independent Republicans and anti
Tammany Democratic organizations,
such as the Good Government. the State
Democracy, the l. c. o. and German
Americans. all want union ticket If
they can get slice of the offices The
machine Republicans are unanimously
against 1t.
Boss Platt and his star Scheherezade.
Smooth Ed" Lauterbach. are talking
business now. They say they have no
objection to all other brands of Republi-
cans and unclassifed amateur politicians
indorsing the Republican ticket.
The Good Government folks are think
ing the matter over. If they get one
of the judgeships and a declaration on
the part of the convention in favor of
good government. it is not improbable
they will join in with Mr.. Platt's
scheme. If their claim for share OF
the plunder is ignored, as Lauterbach
and other violent straight ticket men
advocate, there will be no end Of trou-
BILE.
The other independent and pronounced
anti-Tammany organizations are in
pretty much the same boat as the
Good Government Club men.
politician who claims to know what
he is talking about :s authority for the
statement that every man who grabs a
Republican plum this year will have to
swear harder oaths of allegiance to the
Piatt machine than he ever had TO swear
before.
The Republicans have peremptorily
decided that they have got to have the
County Clerk. Register. five out of the
eleven judgeships and about four-flfths
of the legislat tive candidates.
The Good Government folks and other
organizations which may come In can
distribute the rest among themselves.
The State Democracy stands ready to
come into combination, and wants
an office or two for doing It. They may
get a Supreme Court judgeship for Cor
poration Counsel Scott. who aspires to
q seat on the bench. An announcement
of the plans of the State Democracy
leaders will soon be made by Chairman
Charles S. Falrchild. of it's Executive
Committee.
The Tammany men are waiting to sec
how the Republican cat is gcing to
jump. The Tammany convention will
be held next week, and in the mean
time the new syndicate in control, COM
posed Of John c. Sheehan. eX-Mayor
Grant, Richard Croker and Senator
Murphy. will pass upon the claims and
merits Of candidates.
