The Local democratic TICKET.

Some of our more or less esteemed con-
temporaries are exhibiting their ears in
an amusing way over Hudson county
Democratic politics. For instance, the
Herald" intimates that there is doubt
as to the nomination of the ticket favored
by Robert Davis. He is himself afraid it
will not succeed, the Herald" says.
The Herald is painfully misinformed.
There is not the slightest doubt but what
the ticket favored by the County Com
nittee win be nominated at t%onight's pri-
maries. We do not think anyone enter
tains the least fear of it's defeat. We
do not believe even Dan Lewis thinks it
viii be beaten.
The main nominations on the ticket
will be-
congressman-Allan L. McDermott.
Sherif-wiiliam Heller.
surrogate-James t. Lillis.
The gentlemen who think they are run-
ming in opposition to these will have a
surprise party when the vote is counted.
The Jersey City news. (Jersey City [N.J.]) 1889-1906, 1896-09-17

THE Herald says Robert Davis is
urging the nomination Of Mr.. McDermott
as an olive-branch to the Gold Demo-
Gratis of the county.
Well, why not? 1t seems to us HI
Mr.. Davis is doing a highly praiseworthy
thing in thus trying to hold the party
together as far as possible. The Her
ald' intimates that he is doing it in order
to help elect the other candidates on the
ticket, the Sheriff and Assemblymen and
50 on. Well, we repeat, why not? Why
should not Mr.. Davis do his best to elect
the local Democratic ticket. Why should
he not conciliate every element in the
party so far as possible in order to win
votes for them? Is it not his duty as
party leader to do this very thing?
Is it not the duty, too, of every sincere
Democrat to meet him half way wherever
1t is possible to do so? In other words,
since he safeguards the National honor
SO far as it comes within his bailiwick-
by promoting the nomination Of a ster-
ling gold Congressman, what excuse can
any Democrat find for opposing the rest
of the party ticket nominated by the
regular recognized organization? Moth
ing could be more Illogical than such an
opposition, N nothing could be more
undemocratic.
AS for Davis position in the matter,
IT deserves nothing but c~ommendation.
He is forced by stress of circumstances
to stand for silver, SO far as the National
ticket is concerned; but in setting up a
gold candidate for Congress he gives the
gold men full opportunity to stand by
their guns wherever National issues are
involved. He deserves praise for his effort
to hold the party together in this way.
He also deserves credit for making the
stiffest fight he knows how for the local
ticket.
This is going to be a bad year for
Democrats in everything, but if Davis is
met in the right spirit by all who are
taking part in the campaign as Demo-
Gratis. Hudson nay again prove an oasis
Of victory, so far as its local ticket is
concerned, in the midst of a desert of de-
feat.
