gain counter of a large scale, to trade in
futures"
The manage has been the most astute
and powerful of bosses And in the
event of his party's success, he has been
the power behind the throne. of ccnsid-
erably more influence than the elected Of
Rcer, having the latter bound under many
obligations; often in black and white.
Mcleod. the lumber man. does not ex-
pect to be a campaign manager and not be
a practical politician" In fact. he desires
to be as practical as possible in or out of
politics. AS he has spent some of the best
years Of his life as an extremely practical
lumber dealer, the probability is that he
viii prove a practical enough politician.
But much concerning him and his posi-
tion are absolutely unique in a political
factor, u as he Is rapidly becoming.
In the first place, he has not long been
a friend. even an acquaintance, of Mr..
Folk. He belonged to a coterie OF Demo
Gratis, ardent admirers Of the Circuit At
torney, but whose part in politics had been
confined to voting on election day.
During the progress of the Doodle trials
he was impressed with the serious import
of such a municipal state of affairs az the
evidence showed to exist in st. Louis He
became convinced that the only remedy,
the only enduring remedy. lay in the bal
lot.
The same thing has been preached time
n again, but Mcleod determined to see
what could be done in the way of helping
to nduce the masses of the population to
get out and vote as their conscience die
tates, at both primaries and elections.
OFFERS FOLK A HOUSE.
He was instrumental in organizing come
of the Democrats of the city who pro-
posed presenting a testimonial to the Cir
cult Attorney. They offered him a SIS. Oo0
residence. which he refused. 1t was then
that the aims of the small society of buei-
ness men took on a political color. This
little body of Democrats concluded to push
Folk for Governor.
Mcleod undertook to do the work. that
is to manage.
He was absolutely ignorant of politics.
But he figured that the way to learn was
to begin, and he began. Some of the more
experienced lands who are familiar with
the game" and his work declare that he
has demonstrated himself to be "nobody's
fool" He admits that he has learned a
thing or two"
He looks upon the management in pol
tics as merely a business. But he does
not underestimate the MAGNITUDE of the
business. He knows thai his trad" is
every man who has the privilege OF the
ballot
He perceives that organization Is the Sc
cret of success in politics as elsewhere. |
So he is ~endeavoring to organize into one
compact body all the various Folk Gibbs, |
and all the Democrats of the State who
believe that the work which MIR. Folk has |
one entities him to the highest honor in |
the gifs OF the State.
When he decided to push Mr.. Folk. the |
was, of course, asked whether he
would receive the nomination. The reply |
was affirmative. that IL he were assured
that the people wanted his choice by the
party and his election, he-Folk-would

name. MI. Folk refused to countenance

ply is considering the ACCESSIBILITY of in
dorsing Edward NJ. Grout for Comptroller
and Charles T. Fornes for President of
the Board of Aldermen, to outwit Nc
Laughlin and his other Brooklyn enemies.
Grout and Fornes are the candidates on
the fusion ticket for these Offices, and
Murphy, il is asserted, wants to show TO
the voters of New York that Tammany
has reformed and is willing to be purified.
The two gentlemen named are Demo-
Gratis and are really the strong men and
yote-getters on the fusion ticket.
Should Murphy decide to do this it
would at once prove the biggest coup in
the history of New York City politics.
while at the same time it would answer
the attacks of the Brooklynites that Tam
n any is the same old Tammany and not
inclined to put up the type of men who
would command the confidence CT a great
majority of the voters. 1t also means that
Mr.. Murphy has accepted the defiance of
Hugh Mclaughlin. and is determined to
carry his point in nominating the son of
Little Mac
With Grcut and Fornes on the Tam
many ticket, headed by Mcclellan for
Mayor, there is little doubt Of his election.
1t is said that the fusion candidates
have expressed their willingness to &C.
Icept nominations for their present offices
on the Tamnspy ticket.
When the latest move OF Murphy and
the Tammany men was learned In Brook
to-day. CONSERVATION prevailed in the
Kings County Democratic ranks, and Nc
Laughlin was accused of bringing about
Generalization by his efforts to hog
things, in attempting to name the mayor
atty candidate.

However much of a ''reformer'' the can
didate may be. the manager in politics
usually is a much less radical individual,
less bothered by the elmer sensibilities,"
and whose creed is essentially bound up
in the single word win"
The managers business is to manage
the candidate for one thing-especially If
he be a iefcrmer-to manage the boys
for another, to bind the candidate to the
boys and the boys TO the candidate.
When the candidate viii lot be IMAM
aged" and when the boys are all in the
enemy's camp. the managers task is
hard, indeed.
N. ". Mcleod, who has undertaken to
handle the business end of the Folk cam
pslgn, TO run the thing. to organize the
many believers in the Folk idea," hard
ly conforms to the manager type. He has
not thst air of the politician; that char
acterizing something which always at
taches to the man who is a professional
manipulation.
Mcleod has been most of his lays a
Lumber merchant-and Is a successful one.
He believed Circuit Attorney Folk should
be Governor. He saw that somebody had
to take hold to accomplish that end.
He volunteered. pitched into the ramifca-
tons of politics. started the ball rolling
and rather glories in the experience since
the fight bids fair to be a hot one.
He thinks one can play politics without
soiling his hands. He thinks 1t can be done
on business lines. He is trying to run a
campaign just as he runs his lumber bust
ness. He hustles to get business as regards
lumber, and he proposes to hustle to get
all the votes possible for Joseph w. Folk
as the next Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor.
Mcleod Is like any other manager in
that he is out primarily to win. His con-
fidence is astonishing. but his means at
hand for furthering his candidates inter-
ests differ from those which can be re-
Questioned by most managers. He can
make absolutely no concessions as to the
future, or bind Mr.. Folk, in case of his
nomination and election, in any way.
NOT A PHRASE MoNGER.
The manage in American politics is the
most practical of practical politicians"
Phrase mongerlng is not his forte as a |
rule. His job is to line up the fellows, to |
direct his licutenants, to "work'' the press
and, acting somewhat as a general In chief
q battle, keep in mind a survey Of the
field, with an eye to creating sentiment.
and reapihg votes.
He dispatches orators to spots where it
is supposed a little stirring %eloquence will
be effective; and often. he sends money
where It will do the most good.
In character frequently he is a mixer"
3 good fellow" Generally speaking. his
procedure has been to ally opposing fac
within his party by efectins COM
bin~ations," by promising fat jobs or the
OF them to men who can swing
1iglszets"; In short to manipulate a bar
