publicans are confident that they viii
be completely SUCCESSFUL.
Nc one will affirm that the demo

The republican candidates have beer
treated discourteously Ministers have
been insultsd and misrepresented, and
saloon men have been grossly hbeled
Since the candidates un the so-called
non-partisSln ticket have NOT disavowei
these proceedings they must take IN,

without opposition.
A short time ago the democrats pro
fessed 10 feel that Mr.. Kopp for police
commissioner had a walk-over. They
made no such boasts yesterday and
even acknowledged THAI 1T will be a
hard fight. Republicans are not boast

where near equal, Mr.. Welch can not
be defeated. Were thene any betting
he would be the favoI1te.
Mr. Kearney for street. commissioner

BYNUArs POLITICS.
Democrats Claim Becauae He Opposes
Free silver He Is Republican.


NEW YORK. Dec. IA special 10
the Times from Washington, soye:
Son e Of the dem0crldc senator's have
in lirnated 10 their friends that they
viii resist the confirmation Of William
-. Bynum to be a member Of the
board Of general appraisers at New
York. Mr.. Bynum, who was, until 1886,
an active democrat, but who partici-
pated in the campaign with the Pal
mer and Buckner democrats, is less ac-
ceptable to democrats than lifelong
republican. The argument made
against his appointment and confirma-
ton Is that the law requiring that all
the members Of the board shall not be
of tfe same political party, !s bdng
d.sregarded In appointing Mr.. Bynum
az a democrat.
When the case Is taken up in exc
cduy- session it will be urged against
nm hat lie really parted company
with democracy whan he bOlted the
Chicago nomination in 1896; that he
has since stumped for d republican or
republicans in congressional cam
palgns ard should be appointed, II at
all, ls republican The opposition Is
/ considered likely TO be futile although
a number of republicans say that It IS
a pretty large and handsomely paid
position to be giyen a new recruit.

Il am still repres snting the Croker

cent stock deals was confined to his
purchase u southern Pacific stock
