Greater New York is a physical and

another story. With due pomp and
circumstance the second city in the
world was ushered into being on New
Years day, and the cohorts Of Croker
assumed the reins of power. Mayor
Van Wyck has shown by his appoint.
ments that the predictions of the late
Henry George were true-he is but the
catspaw of the dominant spirit of New
York Democracy, "Dick" Orocker, and
his Willingness to pull the chestnuts
from the Goals at his masters bidding
augurs i'll for the future Of the new city.
Competent men have been turned out

toughs, and the tiger indeed is in the
saddle, and with it's splendid organiza
ton is likely to remain there until the
revolt Of the people because Of its rot,
tenness and criminality shall drive it
from power.
Nor is Croker content with his mimi
cipRl victory. He is seeking for new
and larger worlds to conquer. He has
placed himself al the head of an organ
ization to be known as the Democratic
club, which he expects to make the
municipal, state and national authority
for that party, and through it to con
troll it's nominations and policy. If any
considerable number of Democrats
submit to this program the people of
this country who place patriotism and
national honor above party will have a
large accession to their ranks, and an
independent movement OF such pro-
portions as never before witnessed will
be inaugurated. Therefore, we "wel
come Mr.. Croker with bloody arms to
a hospitable grave" for the sooner the
lines are clearly drawn, and honest
Republicans, revolving from the rule of
the Platts and the Q Giggses, and honest
Democrats, rejecting the leadership of
the Crokers and the Murphys, come to-
gether in & common cause for the ma
