\ TUPHE CHICAGO DAILY TRIBUNE: THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 187 K CITY POLITICS. The Machinery of the ‘Campaign Set- in Motion Last Evenings TFirst Revolution of the Wheels of the Opposing Ele- ments, A Law-and-Order Meeting in the Third Ward. The German-American Cen- tral Committee in Session. A Decided Lack of Harmony Manifested Among the Leaders, Acrimonious Debate Between Mesars. Jussen, Hesing, Vooke, and Lieb, The Americans and Irish Denonnced by Some and Extolled by Others, Binco the moeting last Sunday, looal politics ongross tho attention of thoge who take any part or intorost in politicsl affairs, and thoy are all trying to o their way cloar out of the presont tanglod conditlon of things. Thopublicity given to that mooting bns not holpod tho party it was Intendod to nid espocially, ss it interforod with tho slate arranged In advance by tho German and Ivish. Efforts sro being mado to rope in every ono supposed to buve influence, but thore aro a larganumber who objoct to playing socond fiddle to Alr. Hosing, Mr. O'Hara, Mr. Rodbortis, Jr. Acklioft, Mr. Michelson and thoir friends, who as- sembledto worship office laat Sabbathafternoon. An sttompt to got Jimmy Stowat, tho Recorder, into tho field has failod, nnd Captain Hoaly has doclined to participate in the movement as it now stands. It is undoratood that Jack Stephens, tho Coroner, has pledged bis allogisnce to the party, and will cast the power of tho Morgue in ita favor. Thoro is not harmony even in tho ranks of the taithful, Itis s question whothor Danlel is in tho Hon's don or tho lion in Daniel's don, Mr. O'Hars being Danicl, and Mr. Hosing tho lion. They aro trying to swallow each othor, and it is intimatod that they have succeeded. Mr. O'Hara jnacandidato for Oity Tressuror, and David A. Gago, J. H. MoVicker, or Mr. Pardridge, the tobacco-denlor, sro msid to bo his candidatos for Mayor, But Mr. Hesing wanta Mr. MecAvoy for Mayor, That will not suit Mr. O'Hara, because Mr. McAvoy, having on Irish twang to his namo, it would hardly do to put Mr. O'Hara on with him for tho noxt best office. Mr. Gage, it is understood, will not take the Mayoralty, ns ho profors to contimuo in his ‘present more lucrative position of City Treasuror. Mr. McVicker doom not want the offico, and would not accopt it if pledges wero to bo oxtorte ed from him, Mr. Pardridge, it is bolieved, could be l)mvnilud upon_to servo, Avyof tho threo would euit 3r. O'Hara, but Mr. Hesing profors MoAvoy. Wero MoAvoy nominated Mr, Gogo would probably run for Oity Treasurer, @ Buftalo " Miller for County Tressurer, an Mr. O'Hara would be invited to run obco more for Clerk of the Criminal Court. That is the Hosing-McAvoy ticket, T'hon r, Keoloy's frionds desire him to got tha County Tronsuror- ship, but, if Mr. 0'ITata gots tho City Exchequer, that cannot very well be. Tho Koeley peoplo are, therofore, ratlier in favor of an American for Moyor, Mr. Gago for City Treasurcr, Mr, Keoloy for County ditto, & Scandinavian for Olork of tho Criminal Court, with a Gorman for Comp~ trollor, and nnother Gorman for Corporation Counsel, It is concoded by all excopt Mr, Hesiug that the precodent of having s pative Amcrican for Mayor should be followed, as it won't do to oentiroly ignore the American eloment. This is o airong argumont against Mr. McAvoy, and Mr, O'Hsra knows it. Dan is, so far, ahoad, and if ho runs himsolf alone Lo will bo apt to got tho nomination ho is after, but if ho sttompta to mako p family nffair out of it both hie and the family will boswamped. 'That the men who mot on Bunday mosn busi- aess, there is no doubt, and soma gort of o tickot willbe run. Cho only danger is that in tho oloventh hour Mr, Hesing may be able to make boettor terms with his quondam friends, the Re- publicans, and may dccan, l‘unviuf Dan and urch, T'hy tho rost of tha boya In tho o danger Is not great, howovor, Hosing's most Intimato ~ friends say that ho hag gone tno far to back out with or without honor, aven if ho wore ko disposed, and thut he mus stick to the -raft o Lins asssted to float, whethor it sinks or swims. Supposig Mr, Hosing doss stick to the Inst hour of election =7, does that ensure success ? It is truo that he witl rally hiscountrymen around ‘i standard, and march thom to the polls to vote a8 ho directs, and that & portion of the Irish voten will bo cast on the samo mdo, Tho Irish 1eadors in the movement count upon nearly the wholo of tho Irishy, but thero aro thoso who think they will wako up the morning aftor ths olection and find thomsolves mistaken. Six or oight vowrs sinoo tho samo Irish lendors led their countrymen as n mnss, just as Mr, Hesing now claime to be able to lead s Gorman liosts, But things hve wonderfully changed, The population of the city hae nearly doubled in the meantimo, and there is alarge oung element among tho Irish, who dare {hink and act for thomaolves, This is a danger, Then thore i8_a large numbor who object to boing dolivorod body and soul, Loota and breochos, to Mr, Hesing, who thoy ssy in yoars gone by abusod thom in every way, and granted them not oven courtesy whon he was_ powerful, This feeling is a source of discord antagonistio to that perfect harmony and consolidation of the Irigh voters which is oaloulated Ill)ou by the hoads of the coslition. Anothor matter which haa not tonded to fuso the elements was tho nomination of Bonnor for Fire~ Marghal, Agnew's friends among tho Irish aro onragod, becauso thoy say hio was thrown ovor- board at the suggestion of Hosing, to make way for Beuner—Ilosing's choice. There will bo o division in the Irish voto, and the chances are that & majority witl be rathor sgalust then for the Iosing party. * Then agnin, the Demooracy ara not ontirely out of tho-wny, and some of the old wheelhorsen ara detorminod to hold a Convontion, nominate » ticket, and _got all tho votes they can. ‘Thoy say that Mr, Hesing cau cast his 1ot with thom if hio foels like it, but thoy do not desiro fo be dic- tated to by him or by auy ono else. The fack that tho Domocratio party 18 doad makes no difforenco_to those gontlomen, ad, thoy are not deceasod, but think they can got up a very lively Kicking for the noxt two monthu, Tho Republicans are lylngi low, watching ovents, hat thero will bo o Topublican ticke ncod hardly be doubted. ‘They oxpeet to bo sblo to pominato as good a ticket na tho *‘ up- stairs™ !mrty, and will take chances. Mr. Col- vin iu still montioned for Mayor, and soeis to bo ahend, though Mr. Bopd's friends ara not inao- tive nor without hope. The Committoo of Soventy may supersode both parties, 'J.‘Im'y oro_organizing the wards. “ Law nand Ordor"'Is to be “their war-cry, and It I8 intimated they will not obtrude too much tomporance 1 their plaiform. Thoy ave up- sflron!ly convinced thut it would kill them. Kx- onator Woodard is spoken of as their choice for Muyor. ‘There i otill anothor party—s small party at preiont—but ono that may ussumo formidablo proportions bafore the campaign oloros, Maw orkons in the olty are in sotive aympathy wit [0 Farmora' ‘movement, and & 1 proposod ta put an Anti-Monapoly tickot in the flold. Itis contondod that Chicago sulfors an much, if not mare, from railrosd oxtortions ay tho conntry, and that common cnugo should bo mado with tho favmors in their_ anti-monopoly war, It is alyo prgued that the Farmors' Movomont {s assuming the shapo of'a National party, which will be holding National Convontions, and that 1t would bo propor to libve in powor a munielpal govern- mont which might woloome them to tho oity. It would take a reglment of propheta to pre- diot the outcomo of this mixed .condition of af- fairs, If all partios put up honout mon, ag they ‘munt do to have the least prospect of winuing, somothing will bo gainod by tho city, no matior what crowd succoeds. LAW AND ORDER, » A meoting of tho citlzons of the Third Ward in favor of law and ordor, was held last ovening in tho Bunday-achool room of tho Tirst Baptist Ohureh, according to the sunouncement in tho morning papora. To spenk mildly, tho mooting was hotorogencons in oharacter, Wost Sido town officors buing prosent, and, though not no- tive partioipants in the proceodings, they sorvad to show vory plainly the intorost taken in Third Ward politios by Tonth Ward politioians, Thoro wero & groat many men known neithor to, fame nor to ona another, * Monty" waa thors, and 80 wag ** Major” Pholps. Aud this is addi- tional ovidonco of a atrong offort in opposition to tho lagor boor movoment, - Tho gontlomen looked vaguoly st tho repirfofa tablo, and vaguoly st tho calllng, They also looked at ono another, and spposred to ‘gainno inspiration from tho procoss. . When. things camo to a doad standstill, Willlam Moars, of the Committeo of Boventy, called the mooting to order. Mr. Huntington waa called to tho chair, and Mr. A Bellamy oleotod Scorotary, '~ With s smilo, such as was wont in days gone Dy to shod its wild Justro over his countenanco, and shamo tho ruddy fresc-owork of the Coun- cil Chamber, Ex-Ald, Montgomory roso to make s motion. Momovod that a committeo of threo o appolnted, with Judge Gookins s Chairman, to proparo resolutions giving expresaion to tho feolings of tho meoting. P Judgo Gookins looked uneasily at the beaming countonanco of tho gentloman, and declinod the tho honor. Mr. Tallman was constrained to so- copt it, and Mossrs, Brayman and Mears woro roady to eo-oporate with him, M, Moars moved that s committeo of cleven e appolnted to manoga tho affaira of the Law- and-Order movoment in tho Third Ward. A gontloman whose namo could not bo loarned roso to know somothiog. Io wanted Informa-~ tion. What was tho object of the meoting? One committoo had already been sppointod, and now another was about to be, and nobody soomod to know what for, Wero tho Law-nnd- Ordor mon going to put & ticket of their own in tho fleld, or wore they going to fall in with the old parties 7 What were thoy going to do, suy way? Judgu Gooking was callod upon for a spooch. The vonerablo old ;E:nllnmlu #aid that, a8 ho underatood 1t, the objeot of the Comumitteo of Bovonty wae {0 nustain sud onforco tho laws which “the pooplo had ordained by their own choico. It was to provide for tho proper sdmin- fstration of municipal affairs. Anothor objact waa to elect capable and proper men to oftico. Ho did not wish tho improssion to obtaln that the Committeo of Boventy was o tomperance or- ganization, or anything of tho kind. Ho was not a mombor of any tomperanco soclety, al- though ho was in favor of temperanae ideas. e bolioved that the liquor-bualnoss was rosponsible for moro crimes than all othor eauses put to- othor, Ho was honestly opposed to tho liquor- usiness ; not indiscriminately opposed to liquar- doalors, fio wished it unders ood, booause o groat many of them wora not only willing, buk oven snxious, to suatain the law. Ho wanted to 800 politics reformed. Thatwas his platform. Solong na the Law-und-Order party put in nomination good mon, he did not caro whether it was from the Democratio party or tho Ropub- lican that they eolooted them. All ho wanted waa good men in tho various officos. With a roseate countonance, snd s emile that foll like a lingoring sunboam upon the upturned facos of tho members of tho mooting, ex-Ald. Montgomery inquirod whothor thero was's Dem- ocratic party any more. Judge Gookina blandly rosponded that he did not know, but assumed thoro was for tho'sake of argumont. Whother there was or not he did not caro. All he wanted waa good men for offico. This was the thomo of tho spoakoer'a addroes, and in ploased Lis hearors vaatly. A gontloman, whose identity could not be de- tor od, bogged leave to offer o fow Buggos- tiong. 1t scomod to him thot this move- mont wis commenced at tho wrong ond. It soomed to'him that tho way to do this business was for the honost, docont, and rospoct- ablo mon to go to the primatics and clact delo- atos who would do their business for them in ho conventions by lunurlng tho nomination of 0od men, I'his sccomplishod, let the honost, goconb, and respectable mon go the polls an vote. All this talk about law nnd order was woll onough in its way, but a little solid work at the primarios would bo far moro officacious, [Ap- lausge. ] 2 Mr., h]Iunn in behalf of the Committoo of Sovonty, repliod that that body was willing to tako ndvice from ony ono who might wish to give it. - Thoir common. ob- joot was tho enforcoment of law, They woro willing to take any courso that would load to that ond. If the law guarantcod tothe liquor- denlor tho right to sell on Sunday he would en- foreo it, but as it had just the opposite tondency ho would support Lt Mr. Alfred D, Bellamy had no doubt that there wero a majority of Lnw-and-Order men iu tho city. The trouble was that these men would not go to the primaries. Ho offerod the following reso- lution Resolved, That & committea of elovon be appoluted whoso duty it shall be to nominate such delegates in the Third Ward as thoy may resolve are best fitted to Told offics, both in the Third Ward and goneral gov- ernment of our city. Mr. Haviland was utterly opposed to tho insti- tution 8 known as primaries. Every primary mn!lnq)wu & put up job. Mr, Bollamy repliod to him briefly. The penfllo ought to go to the primaries. The resolution was voted upon and carrled. Br. Moars prosonted tho following names as tho Committeo s R. O. Hamoll, Oharles H. Far- 0, E, A.8mall, L. B, Ler%! E. A, Congdon, £7Byan, A, 3. Willsrd, A.

Bollamy movod that the mattor bo Teft to tho Committoe of throo on resolutions to report at the noxt man&lna’. ‘This was ngroed to. Ir. Dellamy algo moved tho passsgo of the lollowinlg resolution Resolved, That we resolve ourselves into a commit. oo of Lo wholo for tha purposo of usiug our eutice influence to socure s largo and enthusiastic ward mecting on Tucadsy ovening next, "Tho rosolution was carriod, nd the meoting thon, on motion, sdjourned until Tucsday ovon- ing noxt at tho same place, whon @ pormanont organization will be mado. ‘THE GERMANS. The Gorman-American Central Committee, consisting of delegatos from each Ward, and all the Gorman socloties in this oity, met yosterday evening in Bismarck Hall, corner of Wolls and Washington streats, for tho purpose of making arrangemonts for & grand mass meoting of all thoso opposed to tomporauce laws, nnd to or- ganize for tho fall campaign. Mr. Adolph Bohooninger, the President of the Committos, called tho mooting to order, and said that it gavo him pleasure to snnounce that their movemont had latoly gained im- monsoly, snd that they would havo all the liboral men of other nationaliticsas alliea. It waa tho general feling to throw the old Dem- ocratio and Republican partios overboard, and organize a now party, wluok would be in favor of personal lilierty, 'A meeting bad boon held Inat Bunday, et which vont was givon to thoso foclings, and a committes appointad to join the Gorman Contral Committge, and thus united, tako' monsures towards organizing for tho fall campaign, Mr, Proobating moved that the Committeo on Agitation make & roport, Mr, Julus Rosonthal, Ohalrman of the Agitat- ing Committoo, reparted that they had as yot done nothing, becnuse na ono Liad exprossed n wigh for such a meeting, The Committeo would meot on Saturday evening noxt, Mr. Richard Michaells sald he had oxprossed a wisli to tho Chairmon of the Committeo that o mooting bo'called.

M. Richard Michackis sald ho was in favor of tho ronolutions of Mr. Bluhm. o thought that not only such as woro at tho mooling last Bun- day should bo nominated, but all Uiboral and re- apeotablo mon in tho city, Thoy should Invite euch mon as D, A.

Mr, Houing repliod that the formor complaints had beon tuat tho movomont was golely German, and now it woa proposed that just thoso Ger- mansg should invito tho Americaus. In his opin- ion & committeo consisting of all nationalition phould invito thom. to inviting Tne Prpoxe, he wonld stato that Tue Tamune was already invited, but that the chiof editor of Tnx TrinuNe roplied that ho would have nothing to do with thom. Yot it was his dosire Tae Trmune should go with them, and it probably would, if tho bright sido of tho movoment Is 1aid bofore ita oditora, Thore wero ‘but fow Americana in ncoord with the movement ot prosent, but mmfi of thom would come over to thoeir sido when thoy saw the roal objoct of tho movoment, TFow ealoonkoopors wero latoly srrested, which showoed that the Amoricans wore afroid of thom, Thoso gontlomen that attendod tho meoting Inst Sunday wero in omnost, and would go hand in hand with thom. Those would be invited nnd many othors nlso, Edward Jussen said that, boforo spoaking on Hesiug's motion, ho would havo to make & por- sonal romark, Ho hod boort traduced and vili- fiod by sovoral partios 86 an advocato of tompor- snco,” Every ono konew him, and no one was moro opposad to tomporance fanatics than ho, What liad boon said against him would fall bagk on thoso that had uttored thoso vilo acousations, and so sauoh moro beosuso thoro was not o word of truth in thom, Every ono that darod to op- poso tho mad counscla of somo of tho lendors was immediatoly donounced as & traitor, Boloro tho acceptance of Hoaing's substituto, which ac- tunlly monnt tho ratification of the doings of the Btar Chambor mooting lnst_Sundoy, thoy should carofully oxamine and look over all tho facts in tho caso, The epeaker continucd by reading oxtraots from tho Slaals Zeitung about lsst Bun- day’s meeting, showing by tho spocches of Hos- ing and Liob that_tholr intoution wae to unito with the sealawag Democrats, Ho then contin- ued by gaying that tho maoting_on Sundsy was only visited by German and Irish Democrats, and tho old political haoks. Dan O'Hara, M. Kooloy, and othors hiad advocaiod tho calling of & moeting of nll nationalities, & goon ag possible. Tu his opinion, they could’ got tho Irish vote without going over to the Domoorats and hang- ing on the cont-tails of Irish scalawags. r. G. A, Korn interrupted tho speaker, sny- ing that thoir object waa to organizé a now par- ty whick would bo neithor Domocratio nor publican, [Groat applause.] Mr. Jusson said that was exactly what ho had advocatod, namely: That tho Agitation Committoo bo requostod to call o mooting of all Tiboral mon,—regardioss of nationality, politics, or roligion,—whilo at tho Bunday mesting nono but Irish Domoorats and Gormauns Wwore pres- ont. If they nominated good mon, rogardiass of arty, and not take thom from Irish scal- I’awagn, thoy would causo good liberal Americans to como to their side. They wore fighting under tho flag of America, and not Gormany, and na Amoricons, not Gormans, Thoy did not want to forco thoir mannors and idens upon Americans becauso they wero Gorman, but bocoude thoy woro good. He then offored tho following roso- lution: Resolved, That the Gommittoo of Agitation be heroby roquestod to eall & meoting of all horal wen, regard- Jess of nationality, withi tho oxception of professional ‘politicians and offico-seekers ; this meoting should bo held with opon doors, and mioasurca should thore bo taken to learn how a convontlon should ba called ; that candidates bs nominated from all parties and nition- alitics st the coming cleotion that can win the battle of tolorance and porsonal liberty ovor infamous fanaticiam and vils # muckern,” Francls A. Hoffman said hé wae in favor of Hesing's motion, Their ohguut had beon to ju- vito ail nationalitics, sud that it bo a gonoral movement, If the Domocrats woro willing to forgot party ties, why should not tho Ropubli- cans do tho snmo ? Ho wanted on his aido cvery ono that bad o vote, bo it Irish, Gorman, Scan- dinavian, Fronoh, or Negro, Protcstant, or Cath- olic. The only thing that could induce him to voto for Jegson's resolution was bocause it had & clouo in it oxcepting professional ofiice-seoks era, and that would oxclude BIr. Jesson from tho movomont, Ho deprecated any one who spit on the Democratio party or tho Irish clo- mont, Mr. Vooke was opl;osed to making this a pusel German ond Irish movement, but he opod that it would bocome a purely Amerioan movement. When the agitation firai bogan, Lo was afraid thoy had commenced too soon, aund thereforo Lnd takon no pnrt in 1, A coalition with the Irish at the present time would bo ouly to thoir advantago, 1o was opposcd to calling & meoting at prosont, Thoy had bottor wait fivo or six weeks [A voico, * Wait till after clec- tion "—Great Ioughtor.] Thoy might laugh, but ho know ho was right. “Thoy should firast know who wero thoir orponun!a. Tho Committoo of Boventy could not_bo called such. He would thoroforo volo for Hesing'a motion. Nr. Hosing again aroso and eaid ho did not think when ho wont up-stairs that ovoning such opposition would be mado about an innccont resolution. If Gorman domagogues did not di- vido them, and throw discord in thoir ranks, tho ‘'victory would bo theirs in tho fall, T call him n party hack; ho was roady o give tho Tendorship to anyono o organize tho Germana for the fall compaign, and load thom vistorlously to tho polls and save their time-honored conyio- tiong and manners. Ho nover had loft the Re- publican party bofore, but whon thore was such cause to dght for, ko was willing to go with the Domoorats or any ono elso, He was in favor of going with tho Domocrats ss long as ho thought tho Irish woro in favor of that party, but tho Irish who throw off the party yoke last fall, when umi: ocould not swallow Greeloy, told him they would sooner join o new party, and thereforo howas in favorof anow-party movement He nppoaled to the honrts and the finer feolings of those presont to say whether his resolution was not the samo a8 that made two wesks ago, by thoso that were now opposing him, Ha was acousod of onénn!zing o Qorwan Know-Nothing ty, and yob no ono was over moro ready than Kc;r to go with those of othor nation- alitios, Davo Gago had told him that ‘he would not go with thew, but that noble Demooyrat and swealthy bankor, Mr. Coolbaugh, would go with thom, and had given him tho idea of consulting with those of othor nationalition, & ‘Philip Stoin was opposad to an Irish coalitlon, and ogainat Hosing's motion, 1o was froquont ly intorrupted during his romarks bi Nr.
