Albany. June 25.-Friends of Governor
SILVER are urging him to accept a COM
..omise bill, now that his own direct
.,,rary bill has been decisively beaten in
49,, houses Although the Governor dur
,.- his direct primary campaign declared
"a, he would accept no compromise. he
animated to-day that If such a measure
v.re submitted to him ne would give ii
,.rous consideration.
Assemblyman Eisner, introducer Of the
Governors bill; Gibbs, Bowie and Grimme,
n.uocrats and Human. the Republican
.,der presented the compromise propo-
,,son 10 the chief executive this afterl
noon
While he did rot openly commit himself
:. gave them such announcement that
n, Eisner en- returning 10 the Assembly
,.ssior introduced two measures. carry
,,e ont the compromise idea. one is the
uI,ran Republican organization bill,
vt,ch is the same as the Sulzer bill eX-
..,, that II retains the state convention.
The other provides that delegates 10 the
convention be elected as instructed dele
Gates at the official primary. This will
a., &c a substitute for the abolition OF
N. state convention, giving the voters an
opnortunity 10 indicate their preference
Tor state officials.
The compromise advocates argue that
as It will be impossible to get the Gov
,rnor's bill at this session, II is better TO
,ccept bill. without the provision for the
abolition OF the state convention than 10
got nothing. They take the position that
\ will make little difference, as there are
10 be no state conventions this year anG
that the tight 70 abolish the convention
system can be continued later.
Assemblyman Eisner said tonight that
!. would press the compromise bills for
assare Just as soon as the Legislature
,econyened after the recess. The bare
majority By which the Blauvelt, or Tam
many. direct primary bill passed the As
embly to-day has encouraged him 10 BE-
Ieve that he can get enough votes al
east In the lower house 10 pass the COM
promise measures. They will be support
ID BY the Republicans, Progressives, all
those Democrats who voted for the Gov
errors bills and probably others.
In fact. il was learned from an authori-
istye source tonight that Tammany
leaders are already worried because OF
The small majority secured by the Blau-
gelt bill in the Assembly, II Is known
they fear that many of the upstate
Democrats they have been able 10 whip
INTO line in the fight on the Governor will
desert them after the recess by voting for
The Eisner compromise bills.
Speaker Smith sent word TO Tammany
leaders in New York after the session IF
he Assembly complaining OF the inde-
endence and uneasiness now being dis
played by many Democratic members
who have heretofore been considered safe
from the Tammany point Of view.
Il is explained that pressure will be
brought 10 bear on those men. but friends
Of the Governor declare il Will do no
good The Blauvelt bill got q votes in
he Assembly to-day. which is only one
% spare. Its opponents are saying TO-
tight that they could have defeated 1t
rad they put forth any energy in that
Erection, but knowing the Governor VIII
'sto It they thought II was Of no use.
The small margin secured by the bill has
;ut 10 rest the Tammany talk about
passing Il over the Executives veto after
he recess. To DO this IT, would require
two-third vote, or 10 ve<es. in the AS
lenbly.
