NEITHER CoLER NOR LOW.
ONE CITIZENS OBJECTION TO WHAT HE
CALLS PERPETUAL CANDIDACY"

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir; II is very desirable th.t the selection Of an
anti-Tammany candidate tnr Mayor should he
made with intelligent delibcration undisturbed by
caqueurs of perpetual aspirants to the office In
any gathering Of citizens the present time there
is often some to advocate to a tiresome extent
the alleged claims OF Coer or Low It is absurd
for great community such ours to he handi
capped in this way IN dealing with matter so
important the selection of a candidate for
Mayor.
A man who begins to talk Coler Low or any
bdy else at this stage of the canvass should be
gently but resolutely silenced. In this imperial
city. where a great part OF the most important
work OF the world is transacted. there are hun
dreds of men Of unblemished character and OF
great administrative ability, and who well
known also who would willingly respond to call
made in proper form from their fellow citizens
We have been afflicted in two elections for Presi-
dent with perpetual candidate in the person of
William j. Bryan. Do not let encourage a sim
liar self-conscous superiority and sef-assertive-
ness In candidates for the office of Mayor of New
York City.
Both Coler and Low are respectable and useful
citizens yet both too much like the mature
maiden to whom some amiable but unwary bachelor
or widower has been saying pleasant things, and
who suddenly startles him by falling into his
arms, saying, Dear Mr.. A. this is sudden"
do not think the complimentary things that have
been said about Mr.. Coler and Mr.. Low amount
TO a proposal from the anti-Tammany citizens Of
New-York City that either should become their
candidate for Mayor. bly, or unrea SON
ably. there thousands of anti-Tammany voters
to whom both gentlemen are obnoxious and that
is sufficient reason for not nominating either; .
The Republican party. the Citizens Union and all
other anti-Tammany organizations should unite in
appointing a committee of twenty-five, who should
make anti-Tammany nomination for Mayor
Such men George l.. Rives. Alexander Il. Orr,

Hendrix. John Clahin or George F. Peabody are
merely mentioned representative. Scores or
others equally good. obnoxious to one can be
readily named and the names of Coler and Low
should be placed on the lst. Nobody has claim
upon the office; the office claims the citizen who
can beat Tammany. That citizen is neither Coler
nor Low. G H.

NOT SATISFIED WITH MR.. WARNER.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: At last we have the product of the five
months mayoralty incubation OF the Citizens
Union committee. To say that the result is a dis
appointment is to express in the mdest form the
deep disgust which every citizen possessing ordi-
nary political common sense and desirous Of Sc
curing better government for this great city must
have felt this morning when he read the list or
names selected by the committee.
Every man OF them is and has been for years
professional candidate of sort To the
masses within or half without Tammany the
name Of no one of them appeals. And the same
is true of the tens OF thousands of independent
voters Croker's candidate, whoever he may be.

Sir: The people of New-York have evinced
laudable interest in the search for successor TO

individuals have made more suggestions for the
consideration of the nominating bodies than are
usually put forward. OF course. the suggestions
all come from people who desire the defeat of
Tammany Hall. and who anxious 10 nom-

and who may be elected. Those citizens who are
interested in the perpetuaton of the Tammany
rule who are satisfied with the Croker -ScanneN-

they volunteer no suggestions because they fear
that they may not meet the approval OF the Die
