The Citizens Union folks are mp to all sorts OF
antics. Gen. Tracy's friends look on and grin.
1t has been observed before that Seth Lows
campaigners have resorted to tricks which
would bring q blush to the check OF the toughest
machine politician. Tho Republican cam
p~aigners. however, are not at all disturbed
by these antics, which arc SO impractical
and SO senseless that not even those
who want to DO fooled by them are swindled.
The claims Of Seth Lows cnmpaigners as to his
prospective vote in New York county are cx-
posed-or rather expose themselyes-in another
column. The very latest dodge, however, Is an
attempt to befog the sons OF sunny Italy. Ono
Of tho Italian papers printed q yarn yesterday
saying that Gen. Tracy had retired from the
race. The author Of the canard neglected to say
that Gen. Tracy could not retire from the race
IL he wanted to; that there Is no legal machinery
In the State Of New York by which Gen. Tracy
could retire. Gen. Tracy chuckled over the
latest evidence Of the fear in which his candi-
dacy 10 held.
Seth Lows campaigners also attempted to
work a trick on the voters OF Greater New York
By printing q list OF Vice-Presidonts Of the meet
ing which was held in Carnegie Hall last night.
This meeting was for Seth Low. and was under
the auspices of William Brookheld, John F. Mil.
holland. and other anti-organizstion Republi.
cans and froe-trade Democrats. Seth Lows
campaigners printed in tho advertising col
umns of tho newspapers the names OF Re-
publicans who were to be Vice-Presidents
OF the meeting. They stuck down every name
that occurred to them. The following Republi.
cans sent word to Seth Lows campaigners that
the use of their names had been unauthorized,
and they added, to the chagrin of Seth Lows
campaiEners that they were going to vote for
Gen. Tracy:
William II. ArnouE- William II. Evarts.
Robert I. Bonner. JOB Z. Hedges.
George A. Baker. A. D. Juilliard.

In view of the many conflicting stories that
arc being circulated, 1t will DO. NO doubt, inter
estins to READ q calm and dispassionate estimate
OF the.vote TO be cast for the different Mayor
atty candidates on election day. The analysis
is the work OF experts In political campaigns.
It is printed for the instruction of tho voters
and for their enlightenment. 1t Is intended to
be fair to the four principal candidates, Tracy.
Van Wyck. Low, and George. Yet 1t demon.
strates what has been said all along by the wise
men in the different political camps-tho fight
Is between Tracy and Van wyck. without any
mistake.
