Tammany Tiger, Up Tree With Political
 Plums Scarce, May Starve for Lack of Patronage

and which has no standing with the Democratic administrations ct washington or Albany.
 
 Tammany entered the 1887 may- oralty campaign split into three fac- tons. Because of the support of former Gov. Smith, Congressman Christopher D. Sullivan had been elected leader. His election came as a surprise and the other two fac- tions, headed by former flayor Walker, cried they had been double crossed in an agreement, which was repudiated by Sullivan immediately after he became the boss. Sullivan has been a congressman for more than 25 years. But his only bid for fame as such is his record of Absenteeism.
 Smith, whose influence in Tam many had been diminishing, urged the nomination of an anti-New Deal msyoralty candidate. He contended that LaGuardia would get all the liberal vote, and the only chance the Democrats had of beating him was to win the Re- publicans over to the Tammany candidate.
 The majority of Tammany, act- ing on Smiths plea, supported U. s. Senator Royal s. Copeland, foe of President Roosevelt and champion of the economic royal ists. The New Deal leaders got behind Jeremiah T. Mahoney, Tammany district leader, who is concededly unpopular with his colleagues. Mahoney had been a fudge, but left the bench to prac- tice law, at which he he5 been most successful. He has not the personal appeal or popularity of Smith or Walker, but his public and private life has been above reproach.
 Standing as the champion of the President, Mahoney, showed Cope land under in the primaries and is now engaged in a bitter campaign to be elected mayor. His only oppo- nent is LaGuardia, who is running once more as a non-political can didate, with the supposed support of the inept Republicans, and the other anti-Tammany groups. La- Guardia's administration has been without scandal.
 Mahoney is making his cam- paign on the Red issue, accusing LaGuardia of being Communist. Until John L. Lewis declared for LaGuardia 1t looked like . walk over for him. Now there is 8 division in the labor ranks, which prior to that were presenting Q united front for him. Although the election is in doubt, LaGuaH- dia prevails Q favorite at the pro- hibitive betting odds of 5 to 2, with no Tammany money in sight.
