Sentiment has q large place In the minds
OF many voters. Republicans and Demo-
Gratis" remarked a friend Of Senator Edgar
T. Bracket at the Republican Club last
Wednesday afternoon. and were j. like
Brother Bracket, q candidate for the Repub-
lIcan nomination for Governor Of New York
I would not let II 20 out that one OF my
principal claims to the nomination 10 that
I voted In the State Senate to Dust Platt
and Depew from the United States Senate.
-Ffatt was working for the Republican
party when Brother Bracket was not yet
In his political swaddllng clothes. and Depew
was forever and ever speaking for the Re-
publican party all over the Union. Platt
has a thousand loyal friends In the up-country
districts: he has done a million favors TO
past and present generations OF Republicans.
and Depew is kindly remembered by thou
sands. and these may think II quite unneces-
sary for Senator Bracket to adopt as a slogan

Speaking further on the subject Of senti-
ment in politics. which some speak Of az the
most cruel Of all human games, New York
Republicans, even In the Odell circles, give
almost daily testimony that Mr.. odell can
never be rehabiitsted because of his treat
ment of Senator Plat. who gave Mr.. Odell
all his openings for political advancement.
Practical politicians In the whirl Of the
game quickly forget" remarked a Repub-
lican commentator, but the rank and file
are not so hardened-they are. in fact. in
clined to be fresher. az II were, and to retain.
even in the strife Of life. one or two OF the
main instincts Of human beings

as Uncle Hod,- Democratic Governor OF

received slxty-seven votes for President on
the first ballot in the national convention
which In 1895 nominated Mr.. Bryan.
MIR. Boies was formerly a Republican. but
left that party because Of his opposition to
it's tariff policy. The last Office for which
MIR. Boies was a candidate was for Congress-
man, Third district Of Iowa, in 1902. and he
was defeated.
David B. Hill once said: There are para
doxes In politics. When you are certain of
ultimate victory II is occasionally necessary
TO appear to be defeated"
Henry Watterson's latest: Somebody.
some party, must take the bull Of plutocracy-
that is the only name for it-by the horns and
turn him out OF the garden. where he is max
ing such havoc. and into the pasture, where
he belongs

over D-Cady Herrick. Justice William j.
Gaynor. william r. Hearst and Mayor Adam

of coming in on the homestretch."
