tricis where the issue Of Quay VS.

Wanamaker knew II and recognized It

as he had heard from Chester and
Delaware. The present lamentations
Of the insurgcnt press are merely the
manifestations of force of habit.
The relationship of Colonel Guffey to
this peculiar insurrection within the
Republican ranks appears to have
been one largely of personal amuse-
lnent. He seems to have found the de-
tails of cooperation in a Republican
row means of interesting pastime In
an otherwise unimportant role. AS a
party manager he had nothing to lose
and everything to win. His little flock
of followers was insufficient to do
anything of consequence alone BY
herding it into the insurgent fold he
no doubt anticipated creating a per-
manent rupture in the Republican
camp and was willing to take his
chances on getting something out of it
eventually. Had fusion won. he would
have been in position to WELD the whip
hand. Now that ii has lost, he Is no
worse off than if it had never been at
tempted. The insurgents are the only
losers. Hence the emphasis of their
howls.
Threats to keep up this family quar-
rel are futile. The people are tired Of
It and want peace. When a respect

lines, 1t will be hailed with delight,
