THE DEMOCRATIC MIDDLE
Discussed Informally by Messrs. Hanna,
Clayton aud scOtt.

New York Tribune: Several men,
bcrs OF the executive committee OF the
Republican national committee met ut
the Fifth Avenue Hotel yesterday fore
noon. Mr.. Hanna strollcd. down from
the Waldorf about II O'Clock and found
General Clayton, Mr.. Scott and others
In the corridor, They all sat down In
the lobby and held II consultation. The
subject Of Mr.. TEACHERS withdrawal
and the plight OF tho Democracy were
touched on. When Mr.. Hanna was ask
cd what he thought OF the condition OF
the New York Democracy. he replied:
'NBless me! l have enough work with
out meddling with anybody else. l am
inclined To think Il Is n pretty bad
mix up-thcy are d~emorlliZed. and lack
organization everywhere. This does not
seem to be much OF n divergence from
the general order OF things over the
country"
Il have not had time TO look the mat
ter up thoroughly" said General Clay
ton. but from Il superficial glance It
seems like n pretty bad middle and
almost hopeless-I know we would
consider II q hopeless condition OF af-
fairs II II was within our ranks. It
seems that the old lines OF the DCmoc-
rucy arc badly split"
Mr.. Scott. who has been In charge
mainly OF the campaign in the south,
remarked: New. York Is such an i'm
pOrtart state that | supposed the
greatest effort would be made here By
the Democrats to hold the organization
intact. | see, however. that the or
SANITATION In the state has succumbcd
10 the same trouble that is prevalent
In other sections OF the country, and Il
seems 4 bad muddlc. We are gaining
right along, ! ind everywhere that we
are gathering In recruits. and our
strongest help Is coming from the
worklnGmcn. They begin to see the
vital Issues in the campaign in which
they ara concerned. II has become
clear 10 them that the manufacturer.
II he cannot get the price FOR his goods.
San hold them, Or take them to an
other market: the farmer, II he caunot
get the prices FOR his goods, can do
likewise: the capitalist, II his money
viii not earn Il proper interest, can
husband 1t, but the laboring man,
where Is he? II h. does not get the
price for 4 days work he cannot hus-
band that day. He canno lay IL aside
n Use 1t some other time. 1t is gone
forever. II Is essential to him that we
have work FOR all and a fair days pay
for n fairs day work. The working
men are coming around all right, and
u strongest support lies right with
the men that Bryan is trying To array
against Mckinley"
