Editor l)mwrnt: The failure to wrl'e during the past two months has been due to in over pre of work rather than to an absence of In teresting material. In the past election coutet In thin state, in the war scare, and in many other cur rent events, there has been much that (joes far beyond the merely local. Hut all things else, not even excepting the war scare, are secondary, and have been to alt the time to the great question of politics In a letter wiitteti shortly afur the November election, I made useof a phrase (hen cuuent, but which now causes a smile when used, and need to be care fully quoted viz. "the logic of events." The implication Intended was that the! democratic leader in 180J, would be the ; ex-president. It was my belief then that ! there were not two contending prlnctpleb in the democratic party either in this state 1 or in the nation at lurge. That view I am j compelled to modify so far as New York: btate is concerned. The course of events by which, the state senate was turned oyer to the democrats, the calling of the early state conyeutim, and in short, the personal movements of Senator Hill have changed the views of many. Few people, even in New York, have realized Senator iUb' consummate ability as politician. Few, also, have realized what a hold he had upon the machinery of politics in this stale And in the whole series of events that have transpired, Senator Hill has been the etliciei t factor, a veritable Napoleon of politics. As to gaining con troi of the state senate, there have cer tainly been some questionable things done Hut it is the logical sequence uf the methods by which the opposing party has maintained supremacy there. The result accomplished has certainly been to give a democratic state into democratic control. The methods employed have sometimes seemed questionable. 1 he main features of this plan were admirably layed out. In the detail of execution there have certainly neen blunders. Ex-president Cleveland has a warm hold on a strong contingency of demo crats. liut his following is popular and unorganized. New Ycrk will unquestton able send a delegation to the convention for Hill, iheie is a possibility 01 a con testing delegation. The movement in that direction is lormabie and growing. Whether or not a compromise can be effected remains to be seen. If not, alas, for democracy in this state. A mass meeting was held in Cooper Lnion last week that has exercised Senator Hi'.! and his followers not a Utile. I was large, enthusiastic and composed of trie most substantial members ot the part v in mis city. The meeting was a formidal protest against the mid-winter convention be cause it mean? machine made delegates rather than delegates chosen by the popu lar party will foi the national convention. The meeting and the speakers, while enthusiastic, were dignified and in earnest. There were no threats. Hut it nas oten correctly said since the meeting that the note it sounded was ominous of demo cratic discord. On top, of this, there comes the report of the local elections throughout the state in which the repub licans have unitormly made gains, in some districts these cams have been heavy. What all this meant no one can foretell. Senator Hill insists that the convention shall be held as appointed on reb 22nd. ilis followers snap then lin gers in the faces of independent democrats and even ridicule them. All tins bou no good Give Ear to Our Remarks We have filreaily recuivod a larse and fine line of clothing for men, youths and season, which we wish vou handsome suits made sju-cially- to trder from Albany Woolen Mill goods, already We are closing out Winter for new goods, which will continually arrive. rriJK L.ii:A.oi( This disagreement Is something more, I fear, than the antagonism of the per sonal followers of two great leaders. It is based on 11 deeper principle. To my mind the difference is simply this: One ele ment of the parte believes that success Is to be secured by an open avowal of prlnci o'e, and 'bar a pariv mut stand or fall by Its principles. The other dement be lieves that In achieving party succiiS the first thing Is to Intrench "the party In power, and I avhuf done so, work out the party p V.icy ut. disturbed. The one gets its platform from t!te mass of the people, checked u'.d restrained by party leadcra. The other gets its platform from indivi duals, up ,ri whom the mass of party followers are to ac' as checks. This Ik at the bottom of ad party contest. I: Is the same t .vo principles contending whether vou call It centra!! itlon s states rights, loose consiruc'do 1 vs liberal construction, orens"rva:is.n vs radicalism. It is this aspeciof (lie question, tow it, that it Is not a mere factional tiht, but a struggle of radlca'lv opposing principl s, that causes the ceinocrats the most alarm. It i.li tracts attention Lorn the fundamental ideas of the party as it stands opposed to 'he republican party. But New York has been spoiled. She has furnM.ed the democratic party with its candidates for a quarter of a century. for, although, two candidates nave nom inally come from other s'ates, to all in lerts and ;uirpoes they came from New Yo:k as thev have certainly represented New York ideas. I( may be time for the candidate to come from elsewhere is spoken very loudlv, and the senliment is gaimr.g ground seemingly that party expediency calls for some one to lead who could in sure harmony. I (I ) not think there is much difference of opinion here ns to who the republicans will nominate If there ever was any doubt about it, Mr Hlaine's letter seems to have fettled that doubt completely. Meanwhile, the party machinery is being set in motion for the great contest of the coming summcrand fall. Very truly, Jas J Charlton.
