PLATT'S
MACHINE
MADE
tspecial Correspondence.l

Washington. Sept. l3-The opinion IS
quite generally expressed by politicians
in this city that the Republicans of New
York state did not strengthen their cause
any in selecting B. 3. Oden, jr. for the
head of their state ticket
Mr.. Ode1 is vulnerable in politics. and
therefore will probably not craw the
doubtful voter TO his standard on election
day. There are thousands upon thousands
of men of voting age in the Empire state
who have little use for machine polite
ianS- Next to Senator Thomas G Plat
Mr. Odell is considered the greatest ma
chine politician that New York has had IN
either party in recent years The under
standing is that Mr.. OdeII, too is simply
endeavoring to reach the United States
senate through the New York governor
ship In other words. if Mr. Platt re-
tires to private life al the end of his pres
ent term, his choice for his successor is
Mr.. Odeli. good many Republicans OF
prominence in the state are NOT satisfied
With the deal that Mr.. Plat has put uD to
control the state office at Albany and
after that for legislature which will do
mis- bidding in electinS Mr. Odel a
United States senator.
However. there is little danger that Mr.
Ddell will be elevated to the sovernorshin
