THE NEW YORK CAMPAIGN
SETH Low SPOKE, ADVOCATING
KEEPING POLITICS OUT OF
CITY GOVERNMENT.
Mr. DAYTON DENOUNCES CROKER|SM
Ex-POstmaster, in His Letter of Ac-
ceptnnce of the ComptroIlership
on the Henry George Ticket, Is
Bitter Against Croker.

New York. Oct. 15.-Seth Low adj
dressed two large meetings in Harlem
tonight and one in West Twenty-third
street, and in each received an enthusiasts
tic reception. During the course of one
of his speeches the citizens union can
didate for mayor said:
"We come before you this year on the
subject of home rule. Home rule writ
ten on the hearts of some politicians is
a dead letter, but home rule written in
the hearts of the people of this city is a
live and vital thing. For that standard
we find the candidates of the citizens
union who have not been asked to pledge
themselves to any single person or thing
in this campaign except the people and
their interest in Greater New York. Thi.
is the single issue of this great campaign
service to the city in the interests of al
the people. -(ApplauseJ We all know
what happens if politics gets into cit.
department. What would happen if
man let such thing get into his private
| business? Suppose he ran his bushes
and hired his employees according to thei
! ideas. 1t would certainly be demoral
izing."

Same Disease in Both Cities-RecOm-
mended That Cases BE Kept
Under Guard.

Galveston, Tex, Oct. 15.-(Special.)-
The committee of physicians returned
from Houston at 80 tonight. The re-
port adopted by the committee was tc
the effect that the same disease exists in
both cities and they recommend that the
cases be kept under guard.
DR.. II. A. West tonight rendered his
resignation as member of the board of
health and as a member of the city coun-
ell committee on hospitals and health.
DR.. C. w. Truehart rendered his res
ignation as a member of the advisory
committee of the board of health.
DR.. West said: 81 wish to state in ex-
Dlanation of this action that it is not
taken with view of Sinking respon-
sibility, but in order to obviate any pos
sible obstruction to the raising of the
quarantine against Galveston. which L
believe can be done with safety"
DR.. Truehart said: 81 am moved to
this course by desire to facilitate such
action by your board as shall secure the
immediate raising of quarantine and the
RESUMPTION of traffic. which conceive
may, under proper restrictions, be done
without jeopardizing the public health of
our city or state"

the Northern Union of Conservative AS
sociations at -the-Tweed to-
day, Lord Londonderry rendered his res
ignation of the presidency of the union.
His reasons were not made public at the
meeting, but were set forth in a letter,
in the course of which he said:
"The principles Of true conservatism
have been cast to the winds by our lead
ers in passing the working mans compen-
sation bill. Among conservatives
throughout the flnorth Of England feeling
is bitter and disaffection at the conduct
of those leaders is evident. If unallayed
1t will lead to serious split in the party.
1t is due. am convinced, to subordi-
nation of conservative principles to that
dominating will of the secretary of state
for the colonies, Hon. Joseph Chamber
lain, whose radical views on home poll
ties conservatives have disapproved, how
ever much they may have admired him
as an imperialist.
Under these circumstances the COM
mittce will understand my reluctance to
continue as president of union nomi-
nally conservative. but which, unless It
puts n check on the action of our leaders
in allowing Mr.. Chamberlain so free Il
hand in home legislation. is virtually an
organization for the promotion of radi-
cal measures"
Lord Londonderry's position and defni-
ton of policy were unanimously endorsed
by the union and he was reelected its
president.
