Tho Citizens Union, which announced that Its
only purpose was to conduct n "non.partisnn
Mayoralty campaign has nominated county
and State candidates. some of which have to do
with the national Government. thereby giving
tho lilo to its professions. Why docs not Mr..
Seth Low sovor his connection with these trick
stors, repudiato their pernicious partnership,
take his name from their ticket, and leave tho
field clear for q united campaign by tho real
friends of good government
From the Ne,c London Day.
The Citizens Union is Mugwump down to the
ground and will ruin II II cannot rule. That IL
tho Mugwump confession of faith, and the
capacity of tho Mugwumps to ruin has been
fully demonstrated. The Mugwump got into
national politics with deadly effect. and for
nearly twenty years has wrought mischief
wherever there has been opportunity for mis-
chief. Its history will show no greater mischief,
however, than is about to BIO wrought in Greater
New York.
Fronl the Dovlestotcn Daily Republican,
Soth Low is assisting to do serious injury to
the greatest municipality in this country by de-
clining to see tho wisdom of Withdrawing rs n
candidate for Mayor and working with the
regular Republican organization for tho election
of Gen. Tracy. With tho Democratic forces
divided, tho success of tho Republican can
didate can be accomplished, provided that Setha
Low will listen to reason and not to fool friends.
From the Harerhm Gazette.
Seth Lows candidacy imperils tho election of
an able and a p~ure-minded man. Gen. b. F.
Tracy, and he should get out Of tho way a.
speedily as possible.
From the 81. Paul Pioneer-Presa.
As the campaign progresses 1t will become
clearer every day to tho Republican adherents
of Low that 1t was q mistake for him and his
friends to take this Incorporating attitude;
and we incline to bclievc there are good grounds
for tho expectation that before election day
comes they will rally around Gen. Tracy as the
only hope of victory for the cause Of good gov.
eminent In New York.
From the Nebraska State Journal.
The strength Of q republic depends so much on
the balance Of party organizations that It IL q
shortsighted leader who advocates the oblitera-
ton of parties for the sake Of any good man"
whatever.
From the Colorado Springs Gazette.
Tho eminent fitness Of Gen. Tracy for the ONCE
must be apparent even to all partisans. Tho
Citizens Union will draw its strength from tho
Republican ranks, and II Tammany slips in tho
blanc will be at the door Of the Citizens Union.
which refused all offers of compromise and re-
jected all p%roffers of Cancellation from the Re
publican organization. With them it was Seth
Low or ruin.
From the Schenectady Union.
Seth Low has demonstrated that he is q "uni-
flying ~force"-with the Henry George move
ment. Tho alliance made by the Citizens
Union in Greater New York and the George
people Is tho most shameful proceeding ever
known in politics. This is true, because it is q
deal on tho part Of the "holier than thou
crowd with those whose politics are most vicious
and dangerous.
