Gen. Tracy's campaign Is racing on. Personal '
friends Of Seth Low said last night TO a Sun
man: I've have all observed q most remark
able change In Gen. Tracy's campaign during
the last forty.eiRht hours That was as far as
the Low people would go, but it was a great
way for them, In view Of the fact that those
close to Mr.. Low have, consciously or not,
breathed In his spirit Of inordinate vanity
and egotism. The personal friends Of Mr.. Low |
could have gone further and been consistent
with the facts. They might have said that Gen.
Tracy's speech in the Brooklyn Academy of
Music on Monday night cleared the atmosphere.
In that speech Con. Tracy clearly demonstrated
that tho forces of sound money cannot ignore
municipal campaigns. Gen. Tracy's utteranccs
on tho same occasion also demonstrated that
Seth Low had made the greatest mistake Of his
life when he stated that in the event of Gen. |
Tracy's election the real Mayor would be in
the Senate chamber at Washington"
Republicans who had been friendly to Mr..
Low said last night that this attack on Gen.
Tracy had injured Low, and demonstrated to
the Republicans that Seth Low and his Tam. |
many.Ttepublican friends and Mugwump Demo
Gratis had gone altogether too far. One Republic
can who had been friendly to Mr.. Low said very
positively: NJ Low in making that attack on
Gen. Tracy was both ungentlemanly and un-
grateful. 1t has done great service, though, in
teaching Republicans and the friends Of sound
money and good government that they must
stand together In this campaign and have
nothing to do with Mr.. Low and his friends
who resort to that style of campaigning
THE Sun is able to state positively that MEM
hers NJ tho Cityens' Union Camnaipn Commit-
tee have said to their friends: I'VE don't expect
to elect Low, but II we can beat Plat that's all
VIC are after; thatil be victory enough. II we
can only smash the Republican organizations In
Greater New York, We can smash the Republican
organizations in tho State" THE Sun is not at
liberty to give the names OF the members OF the
Citizens Union Campaign Committee who mado
this statement. In the near future 1t may BIO
necessary to print their names.
Repu blicans all over Greater New York have
become aroused to the conspiracy against tho
Republican party and the forces of sound money
and good government. which conspiracy is
headed by Seth Low, and the Tammany Repub-
licans and Henry George cohorts in his wake.
Seth Low. according to his critics, believes
that 1t is n virtue for the Citizens Union to
claim not to have an organization. and
that it is a crime for the Republic
cans to have organizations. AS a matter
OF fact, and according to all Of the Information
on every side, no more intolerant boss has been
seen in many a day than Seth Low himself. He
snubs his campaign committee right and left.
He brushes aside Reynolds and Pine and Pryor
and Clark, and tumbles over everybody in his
mad desire TO be the first Mayor of Greater New
York.
The Republican campaign managers said yes
terday that all Republicans and their sound
money Democratic allies have been solicited
almost. in q twinklpg. aud are now pre-.
senting n solid front to tho enemy.
The Republican managers pointed out that
Seth Low and his Tnmmany Republicans
and George followers have dealt with every
body except the Republican party, and would
have dealt with the Republican party had
they not been fully aware that the forces Of
sound money would have nothing to do with
Organism in any form. All the reports sent
from the election districts to President Quigg
yesterday gave in detail the facts how the
for ces Of sound money headed by Gen. Tracy
have become soliditied. One OF the letters said:
"There was n little Low sentiment in my dis
trict, but It has disappeared and the Republic
cans and gold Democrats have become thor.
oughly unified. They have observed that Seth
Low after grabbing his own nomination next
grabbed a nomination from the Shin Democracy,
although on the same night the Ship Democrats
Endorsed Tammany Halls county ticket.
The next deal OF Seth Low was with the
Jefferson Democracy, which nominated George.
Endorsed Lows New York county ticket, and on
the very same evening Endorsed the Mclaughlin
Democratic ticket in Brooklyn. Seth Low started
out by saying that the Citizens Union would
have no deals or dickers. He Is the dickerer and
dealer par excellence in the history OF New York
county politics. He is check by jowl with Tam.
many and Henry George and the Mclaughlin
Democracy"
Seth Lows close a~malgamation with Tam
many Hall and Henry George has done as much,
the Republican managers said. as anything else
to bury him out of sight. The Republicans and
sound.monoy Democrats arc Indignantly ar
raycd against him, now calling him the pre-
tender and cham candidate of good government.
President Quigg said:
Il gave low 800 votes in Greater New
York in yesterdays estimate. From tho infor-
nation at hand tonight I am compelled to say
that that was entirely too high. The reports
now indicate that he will not receive anywhere
near that number of votes. have ascertained
after the most searching investigation that
there Is nothing Of the so-cailed Low movement
except in the columns of q few Mugwump news
papers. The entire Republican ticket headed
by Gen. Tracy is gaining strength every day,
and the election OF Gen. Tracy is assured"
A weliknown member Of the Union League
Club said last night:
Gen racy's campaign is in splendid shape.
The Republicans and their gold Democratic
friends are working in full harm ny. The
Republicans are especially aroused since the
Citizens Union nominated candidates for As.
semblymen, Aldermen and Counc!lmen. Those
nominations clearly show the conspiracy OF Seth
Low and his friends against the Republican
party"
