The political condition in New

The political condition in New
York City is exciting the entire
country. A remarkable fact in
connection with the contest now
raging there is that the two candi-
dates most bitterly opposed by the
press of that city are the acknowl-
edged leaders in the fight. The
Tammany candidate, Judge Van
Wyck, is so far in the lead of any
other one that if the election were
to take place at the present time
there would be no doubt of his
election.
