THE cRokER-ssILL FEup.

The bitter fight between Mr.. Croker.
the Tammany leader. and ex-senator HIN,
Is interesting New York politicians great
ly. In fact. n IL interesting che whole
country. because the Democrats entertain
hope OF carrying New York for AR.
Bryan. Their hope a.. Of course. based
largely on securing harmony IN the ranks
OF the Democracy OF that state.
on Labor Day Mr. Hin made a speech
at Troy. N. r.. IN which he drew n pic
ture Of commercislism and bossism In
poli,bcs. which attracted general atten-
ton. II was a very skilful effort. ana.
although he mentioned no names IL was
understood that he aimed ut MIR. Croker.
Whether he DID or not Mr.. Croker thought
be did. and he freely expressed his opin-
ion OF Mr.. Hill. He called him names.
and hcliitied him IN every possible way
he could.
Naturally sfT. Croker sud ssT. fiiii are
further apart than they were a week
ago. and they were 80 far apart then that
there Was very little possibility OF shcir
acting together during the present cam
paign Tor the good OF the party.
Il f. thought By many chat. al
though Dir. HIN is urging the nomination
OF Mir. Coler for Governor. his real can
didate is Mayor Mcclure OF Syracuse.
His aim Is said to be to bring Mr.. Coler
into prominence as a gubernatorial candi-
date only for the purpose Of making him
an independent candidate for Mayor OF
New York next spring. II Mr. Coier
were TO become Mayor OF New York. he
could. end no doubt would put an end
TO Mr.. Cookers political power in that
city.
The attitude OF MIR. Croker and Mr.. nm
towards each other Is greatly to be re-
GREETED. because II lessons the chances
OF the Democrats for carrying the state
for Mr.. Bryan. AIR. Bryan's interests
will be sacrificed In the struggle between
these two leaders for ascondency.

What sort Of fEurs viii the National
party-the party which was born 81 Car
ncrio Hail. New York. on Wednesday

will give him hearty support.
But how many votes viii he poll7 That
Is question about which there Is likely
to he great deal OF speculation. IL can
be safely said that he viii not poll any
where near as many votes as Gen. Palm
er did In 1885. Gen. Palmer represented tho
Gold Democrats. There were iS3.82i votes

only tickets that viii attract much at

can. Pretty nearly all Of those who voted
Tor Gen. Palmer four years ago have
about made up their minds to vote either
one or the other OF these tickets. Even
the ticket OF the Middle-of-the- Road Pop
ulists will not poll nearly so many votes
as that wing OF the Populists is counting
upon
II Is a safe prediction that the National
party win be heard OF only seldom dur
ing the campaign Mr. caffery may make
a few speeches and he and his ticket may
get an occasional mention IN the ncwspa-
