The Republicans have to choose between hepupn'
can who can win and a Republican VINO can l.
There can be no hesitation over the choice espe-
c;aIjv since winning means not only victory Tor
the party but victory for honest government
and refusal to make the right choice ID any
small spirit of partsanship, means the betrayal OF
thc state into the hands Of the looters' the tral

The Tribune chooses Mr.. Human as It's candi-
date for another reason besides the fact that he
rcnresents the Only real hope Of ending Tammany-
ism at Albany. The Tribune is an anti'Barnes
ncwspsper. Mr. Human IS an avowcd anti

Especially do We prefer that man when he is

fer and attachments and his superior IN knowledge
Of the states affairs. Mr.. Whitman is great prose

Albany. He sat in the State Senate for several
