with the candidates who an

nels.
Up to this time the COMMITTEE
has done practically nothing ey.
cept, perhaps, to Strengthen out
some of the tangles in those conn
ties in which there were fractional
troubles, and in this only partia
success was achieved.
MayOr.elect Hayes is takings
deep interest in the campaign.
Being a Democrat, he desires tlj
success of his party and, there.
fore, urges the selection Of Legis.
lative candidates who will com.
mand the confidence and respect
of the best elements in both par.
ties. He has refrained up to this
time from taking an active part
in the party deliberations, but
will probably be consulted, es
pecially with reference to the Sc
lections in his district. The
Mayor elect resides in the Eigh
teenth ward, which is in tht
Third district. He is said t
have spoken in the highest term

weeks, and the makeup OF u

just what part Senator GOl
man will take in the campaign
not generally known. His adVc
will undoubtedly be sought

not expected to do much actl'
work. All reports to the col

as strong as his friends hoped
would be after his rest at Sar'
toga. He was compelled to II
turn home during the last wee
to attend to some private bus
ness, but did not remain. -.
While the politicians in Gu :.
and county ARE looking all

Walter Smith, the Democrat
candidate, is pursuing the eVt
tenor of his way, and in a ma ~
