The McClellan-Murphy Fight.

AAC puy ElSut.
The differences between Mayor Mcclellan
and Tammany grew out of the attempts of
Mr. Murphy, the Tammany chief to control
municipal patronage which Mr.. Mcclellan
would not permit. He has denounced Muir
ply In vigorous terms and Murphy has been
equally severe in his attacks upon the
mayor. Last year Mr.. Mcclellan, in a writ
ten statement to the newspapers. said:
Il am democrat. and l will be demo-
Crat as long as that party has a name.
But as democrat and as mayor of this
town | am unalterably opposed to Charles F.
Murphy and TO every thing that he stands
for.
shortly after Mr. Charles F. Murphy. in
a carefully prepared statement, referred to
Mayor Mcclellan as follows:
Whenever an official is compelled to ex-
plain or excuse betrayal OF public trust
he must have recourse to the only two
weapons available in such an emergency
hypocrisy and falsehOod-"
Tammany suffers long and has patience,
but its leaders and its rank and file never
forget or forgive. They live Ito get even,"
and if they can't crafty their resentment
In one way they will try another Just
now they are trying to get even with Mayor
Mcclellan by securing the passage of a bill
through the legislature directing a recount
of the votes for mayor at the city election
in New York two years ago. 1t is generally
believed that there was a good deal of bal
lot-box stutiing at that time. and certainly
the Tammany leaders ought to know. be-
cause they supported Mr.. Mcclellan against
Mr.. Hearst. and the latter has always
claimed that he was counted out. He went
into court and asked mandamus compell
ing the election board to open the ballot
boxes and recount the votes. The court de-
Cided that he entitled to the benefit of
such proceedings provided he would pay
the expenses out of his own pocket, but

Moon. Celestial Happiness, Spring
Peach or Casket of Perfumes. Our
boys get less delicious names. Boys
are made for work and wisdom, rather
than for dancing and pleasure, and
their names show this, as Practical
Industry, Ancestral knowledge, Com
plete Virtue, Ancestral Piety, Discreet
Valor. To our slaves we give still an
other set of names. Yes, those dear,
