Goldenhorn, 1t was agreed and Mr.. speer
began his oration.

Being so to speak up against nara
proposition Chairman Speer indulged IN
what lawyers would call "a departure
from the pleadings" by touching on the
late President McKinley's life policy and
tragic death and carefully avoiding any
reference to local issues 1t being an
axiom of legal practice to abuse the other
side when you have bad case, MT.
Speer followed it by saying unklnd thlngs
about Democrats in this county. he
rolled out the stock, stale phrases about
'looting by the same old gang, etc.,
which left his hearers in pleasing doubt
as to whether or not he meant the party
now in control at Trenton. Finding him
self treading on thin ice he switched oH
into what he was pleased to term de-
scription of humorous Democratic con-
yention recently held. AS every and any
thing goes at a Republican Convention,
the delegates were only too glad to re-
lieve their depressed feelings even by
forced and sickly laugh To do the chair
man justice however, ne made amends
by frankly closing his utterances with
these words

resolution
1.-THE Republican party of Hudson Coun-
ty, in convention assembled, sends greet
ing and best wishes to the Hon. Seth Low,
candidate of the Amalgamated political
bodies which aim to restore good govern
ment and home rule. for Mayor of the
great city of New York; and
the platform of principles and purposes
set forth in his letter of acceptance His
evident solicitation for the elevation and
Improvement of the standard of living
among the struggling masses in the large
cities, and his manly declaration of a
determination to further such improve
ment, so far as it may be possible for
him, if elected Mayor, strikes a respond
ing chord of sympathy in the breast Of
every citizen who has any regard for his
fellow man.
I'VE are in hearty sympathy with the
tremendous public sentiment which has
evolved cooperation of political and
civic forces which cannot fail to rouse
the people to a full sense of the wrongs
they suffer, and disclose to them the in
disputable fact that the one practical
remedy which will fully meet the situa-
tion-in fact, the only solution of the
problem before them-is the election of
Mr.. Low and the inauguration of the
downfall Of Tammany Hall methods and
practices as applied to municipal govern
ment
1--WE have confidence in the discern
ment, the sincerity~of purpose and the de-
sire for an honest administration Of pub
lie affairs by the voters of New York,
and it is gratifying to note that the pulse
of the people, thus early in the campaign,
indicates victory for the 'allies.
I'VE cordially and sincerely congratulate
the people of New York on the splendid
character and fitness of the several can
didates who have accepted nominations
on the Fusion ticket. and It is our earnest
desire and hope that they may be
elected"
