II is believed that this can be accom-
plished by the nomination Of Seth Low,
president Of Columbia university, for
mayor next fall; Bird s. Coler, the pres

city election. but failed because he did
not receive the support OF the republi-
can machine. He might have had it if
the managers OF the movement had not
been SO arbitrary and offensive in their
attitude toward Mr.. Platt. Some of
President Lows friends sought his sup
port and received satisfactory assur-s
ances from the easy boss" 1t was all
arranged that the republican convention
should nominate Low and other candi-
dates to be agreed upon, and that the,
good government party, or indepen-
dents, should indorse the ticket at
mass meeting. but few irreconcilable
lmugwumps who can not abide Mr.. Platt
and would prefer defeat to his support,
encouraged by the Evening Post, held a
hasty conference, placed Mr.. Low in.
nomination as their candidate for may
or, passed resolutions denouncing the re-.
publican machine as worse than Tam
many, and then expected Mr.. Platt and
lother republican leaders to ratify their
proceedings. OF course they refused to
do so. Gen. Tracey was made the re-
publican candidate and divided the OPP
position 80 that Tammany captured the
city government.
j This time the "soonersi' will be sup
pressed, If possible. and Mr.. Plat will
be called into consultation at the start.
Since hls defeat. for mayor three years
ago President Low nas been acting with
the republican machine. and most OF the
Eother mugwlmps have. During the
present campaign they have given Odell,
4 the machine candidate for governor, and
a other republican candidates their hearty
4 support because they are good men, and
! not because they belong to the "organi-
4 alton. As one of the leaders In the citi-
\ zens movement said last night:
We are willing to let Mr. Plat take
the lead in this affair; we are willing
that republican convention snail non,i-
nate the ticket and let the machine
manage the campaign, provided it Will
give US Low, Coler, or equally good can
y didates, whom we can trust to give us
! clean, non-partisan government, with
out fear that they will build up an or
ganization like Tammany to seize the
offices and control the disbursement OF
public money in their own interests.''
