Away-rts n Fight for the Party Now.
In the morning,
In the morning by the bright light,
We're bound to vote for Tracy In the morningi
Early in the week tho Republican campaigners
took steps to reach every enrolled Republican in
the boroughs OF Manhattan and the Bronx. All
told thore are 5000 Of them. Every one re-
ceivcd q copy of the following letter:
"As election day approaches II becomes more
and more evident that the success Of the Re
publican ticket depends solely upon our being
able to poll, In q measurable degree. our natural
Republican strength. Tammany Hall is in u
weak and discordant condition. The George
movement is increasing in strength throughout
tho city. and especially in the neighborhoods
where a heavy Tanmany vote would ordinarily
DO pollcd.
The Citizens Union ticket Is receiving its
main support from Democrats. We have taken
a careful poll OF about one.third of the election
districts of the city and the result proves that
Low will be fourth man In the race. In these
circumstances the Republican party is bound to
win II its active members do their full and
prompt duty.
You are an enrolled Republican, n member
Of the organization, and as its President l appeal
to you for something more than your vote. Our
party needs your earnest. loyal work. II every
one OF our $4,000 enrolled Republicans were to
secure for the Republican ticket one other vote
in addition to his own, Tracy's majority would
bo nightly secured. Will you be one of those
who will make 1t his business to secure that
other vote ana to get 1t in the ballot box on
election dayf'
Tho answers began to como into headquarters,
1 Madison avenue, yesterday. There were thou.
sands of these answers. They were still coming
In last night. They demonstrated what has all
along been known. The Republicans are deter
mined TO stand by Gen. Tracy and the St
Louis platform and to take every step to
prevent the turning over of the Greater
New York to the forces Of Organism. The an
swers to these letters also demonstrated what
has been known all along. and that is that the
Citizens Union folks have been talking very
loudly on little or no foundation. But, for that
matter, the same folks who are now Interested
in the Citizens Union have been interested in
previous campaigns against the Republican
party. and their methods have always been
those OF the bass drum and bassoon.
The thousands OF answers show conclusively
that Seth Low has not the slightest chance for
election. Many OF the answers went On to say
that two or three weeks ago there was more or
less Low sentiment in some of the districts. but
this had disappeared, because Republicans had
been awakened to the fact that Mr.. Low
and his friends. like Mr.. Croker and Mr..
George, are oil arrayed against the Re-
publican party and its policies. Republicans

Another interesting feature was brought cut

nominations in the regular columns Thousands
of Republicans have used these ballots for arpu.

the Shin Democracy. which went over
IN Tammany Hall. has nominated Seth
Low and his two associates on the CITY
ticket. and vet has indorsed the Tammany county
ticket. The fac-simile of the ballot of the Shin
Democracy. according to the rcnorts received.
has worked havoc among Young Republicans
who had been somewha inclined to favor Mr..
Low. Here was the direct evidence of n deal
with Richard Croker and Tammany Hall.
