The ElGHTIN NEW YORK

New York will be a centre of interest
for all the United States tomorrow
night when the election returns are
being footed. Philadelphia will be in a
measure absorbed in her own great
municipal fight. and state and local in
places, but it is safe to say that no
where will the outcome of the struggle
between the Tammany and anti-Tam-
many forces be forgotten.
The opponents Of Tammany Hall
never for moment breathe the posi-
bility of defeat. The struggle has been
one of the most notable campaigns on
record. and it may be said for Mr..
Shepard that he has made the best of
a very bad position. Despite his repre-
sensations to the effect that he was the
candidate of the Democratic party, and
that he could never become the tool of
Tammany Hall, the people have appar-
emily been growing all the time more
doubtful of Mr.. shepard's motives, and
more awake to the glaring inconsistent
cies afforded by his candidacy and the
men who are back of it.
Mr.. Shepard has not worn particular
" we'll At first the breath of the peo-
pie was quite taken away, when it was
announced that a man supposedly en-
lowed with high virtues had been
chosen by Tammany Hall. The device
of pitting Mr. Shepard against Mr..
Low and giving the contest the com
plexion Of one between the two men
and keeping the real issues in the back
ground, had the appearance of being
partially successful in the beginning,
