cRoKER's MONOPOLY
Mr.. Croker speaks a great deal about trusts. Did
you ever hear of such a monopoly as Tammany
leader?
Tamnany Hall is not only corporation whose
offices TO revenge themselves upon their personal
snses have heard that no one can ,rnngh sell any
man named Marks II you waat to sen yOSF eTer Tea
Tsmmany Hall is not only a government trust nut
II we of the fusion ticket are elected we pledge
ourselves TO root out the corruption in all the de-
partments In order 10 do this however, not only
elected
Edward NJ. Grout was introduced as the next
speaker.
"It may be-" said Mr.. Grout that Shepard. If
he is elected. will be like no other Tammany
Mayor ever elected; but IL seems to me that MI
Shepard stands for Croker and Mr.. Croker
stands for Shepard
SHEPARD WOULD BE POWERLESS.
shepard himself said that when man is
nominated by a machine he becomes subservient
TO that power. Abram S. Hewitt himself said
that Tammany made his life miserable. although
he was not nominated solely by that organiza-
ton Mr. Low has already pointed out TO you
repeatedly how powerless Mr.. Shepard would
be in the Board OF Estimate and Apportion-
ment. having only three out Of sixteen votes
Nor could he remove the thrty-three district
leaders who are holding office at the present
time. He simply would not dare TO do it.
The best ne could possibly do would be 10
give a slightly better government than we
have had under Mayor Van wyck. That is not
what We want. We want a new order of things.
We are tired of being bound TO Tammany Hall.
and We are tired Of being ashamed of the DEM
ocratic organization under which forced
TO live. We want a reformation the inside.
We want a change as Democrats, and we want
something that will send Croker out of the
country forever"
CRIES FOR JEROME.
The cries for Jerome" became so great that
Mr. Grout brought his remarks TO a close, and
Justice Jerome walked TO the front, receiving
even noisier welcome than usual. He said in
part:
one Lewis Nixon said that Tammany had lost con-
troll OF teh police (would God II hadD and he added

SHEPARD A SIDE SHOW
Now. fellow citizens. don't know just what Mr.
Shepard amounts 10 in the Borough OF Brooklyn, or
in the Borough of Queens. in Richmond. but in
the Borough of Manhattan do know that he is a
side show. They tried 10 switch off the main
track by yelling that the Republicans had stolen
US but that is dead cock in the pit, and il won't
fight. 1t don't make any difference Bow good and
how holy man Mr.. Shepard is. when he goes
into the office Of Mayor with pair Of darbies on
and Ladd the brains of the Mayors office for the
last four years and that old Dutchman Van
Hoesen-for just remember he isn't any more of
a German than am-when Mr.. Shepard goes into
once under these surroundings he'll just plain
Croker's man.
Mr.. Shepard in his Tammany Hall speech saId
that in the long years of its continuance as an or
ganZaton in this city il had enwined itself in the
hearts OF the people. Great laughterO I've lust
come from meeting down the East Side where
some OF the best people in the world live and where
there are thousands of little children who are
citys affairs, 10 without schooling. | rather
think that Mr. Croker and his friends have not en-
tWined themselves in the hearts Of those people
down there. (Applause and laughter) And then
again, I've sneaking idea that one William s
Devery has not entwined himself very far into the
hearts OF the people OF this city enewed Laughter
and applause)
Mr. Fornes that IL would be almost i'm
possible to hold the attention OF the crowd. so
he merely said that he indorsed all that the
speakers who preceded him had said. In a few
words he urged all those who wished a good
clean government. a government for all the
people, a government OF which the people of
New-York could be proud. to vote the fusion
ticket, and closed with the remark that he
knew Mr.. Low a democrat in spirit and
IN truth.
