MACK AND GOMPERS SAD.
Labor Tote Proves Obstinate
Democratic Chairman VlsaOns.
TFrom The Tribune Bureau

washington Aug 2e-Nor1nan Z. Mack, chair
man of the Democratic National Committee spent
six hours in Washington to-day, being engaged
for much OF that time in conference with Samuel
Gornpers and left here for New York on the mid
night train. OF his conversation with the labor
leader he would say little, except that the vote OF
the workngman was surely Democratic, ana
that he was gathering at first hand the news that
few union men would vote the Republican ticket
It is reported however. that Mr.. Mack and Mr.
Gompers are not altogether satisfied with the situa-
ton and realize that more valid arguments than
Mr. Gompers has yet advanced will be necessary
10 defect much of the labor vote from Mr. Taft
Mack also saw a number of local Democrats. al
though these visitors merely desirous of meet
ing the chairman and had no important matters to
discuss.
On the subject of the approaching Democratic
victory" Mr. Mack especially voluble. In the
vast crowd that witnessed the notification of Mr..
Kern he sees the chances for Republican success
in Indiana vanishing into thin air. while the ap-
plause which greeted Mr.. Rryans speech strikes
hin, as a conclusive argument that the Indiana
Democracy is soi6ly behind the peerless leader
and Will convert many of the Republican voters
In fact he sees few states that can be carried by
Mr. Taft, and gloats lovingly over the reports that
the Republicans are split in several states. He
passed lightly over Maryland saying that that
state would come into the Bryan column. This. he
said would be made clear upon Bryan's visit to
that state early in September. when he is to speak
in Baltimore.
OF the New York situation Mr.. Mack said:
Il do not know who the Democrats will nominate
for Governor, but whoever he is he will be elected.
Until the Republican primaries yesterday | thought
Governor Hughes would be renominated, but that
looks very doubtful now. Those primaries put the
Republicans in a position than ever. and
from Democratic standpoint l do not know
whether should prefer TO Hughes some
other man nominated. New York is normally. a
. Democratic. state, and the Democracy is than
ever united this year. There gold Demo
Gratis or silver Democrats this time. and the So
called Independent with Democratic leanings is
tired of electng Republicans. Our chances never
have been brighter. for polling a large Democratic
majority for the national ticket, while the state
ticket is safer
, Seeing the excellent results that have followed
Mr. Htchcocks conferences Of national committee
men, Mr.. Mack purposes to call meeting of all
the Eastern members of the national committee In
New York next Saturday. This conference will
mark the beginning of the campaign in the East.
