money. You would be surprised to know how
much all these Republicans are interested in
tho coming campaign involving the election of
the Mayor Of Greater New York. II the Re-
publicans supporting Seth Low knew how
anxious they are for Republican success, they
would certainly heed the wishes Of tho large
number of people who believe that a Republican
defeat will again lend impetus to slumbering
Populism, and thereby intlict another possible
national calamity.
II tho Republicans in New York had made an

BE patriots. Be consistent Republicans.
