THE QUALIFICATIONS OF THE NEW TORK SENATOR AND HIS AVAILABILITY—SUREWD POLITICAL MAN- AGEMENT WANTED—THE SOUTH DESIRES A MAN ‘To WIN—TAMMANT a8 AN EFFECTIVE ORGANIZA~ ‘TION. Representative Crain of Texas, who was ghe manager of Mr. Mills’ canvase for the speak ship and has been regardedasa Cleveland man, believes now that Mr. Hill or Mr. Gorm: be the nominee. “When I left Texas to come to Congress,” be said to a Stan reporter, “I think the general sentiment of the democracy was favorable to the nomination of Mr. Cleve- land. Since the action of the democratic con- vention of New York, however, that sentiment appeara to have Qndergone @ considerable change, judging from newspaper and other Public expressions of opinion. The drift of = seems to be tending toward Senator “Whom do you prefer?” was asked. nly preference would be either Gorman or e replied. “The former has demon- strated on the floor of the Senate that he 1 a statesman of the highest order, and bis great and suecessful management of the minority in the celebrated debate upon the force bill bas endeared him to the people of the south and to the lovers of constitutional liberty everywhere. ‘The only possible objection, and I do not con- sider it tenable, which could be urged against him, is that of locality. He would be a did standard bearer. I would support Senator Hill because of his qualifications and his avail- ability. For years he has been the governor of the grentest state in the Union, and has been confronted by republican legislatures. SHREWD POLITICAL MANAGEMENT. “His public acts and his executive papers have demonstrated beyond question his fitness and capacity for the high office of President. The man who has successfully and creditably governed the state of New York is assuredly qualified to be President of the United States. itis urged against him that he is a shrewd po- litical manager. So he is. But is that a valid objection? “If so it applies with equal force to Mr. Gorman. What the democratic party needs is shrewd political managers. It was Se Gorman’s shrewd political management enabled Mr. Cleveland to House his home for four years, shrewd political management that for the first time since the war brought New York into the democratic column and removed that state from the doubtful list in the presi- dential contest. It was his shrewd political management that gave New York a democratic representative in the Senate of the United States. It is not often that we find a man who pdssesses a combination of the qualifications of political leadership and of statesmanship. Both Gorman and Hill are men of this character. MILL'S AVAILABILITY. “The availability of Senator Hill must be ap- Parent to every fair-minded democrat who is familiar with his record and the political con- dition of the country. He has never been de- feated for a state office in New York, and there is no reason to believe that he will be if nomi- nated for the presidency. Can the same be said of any of the other gentlemen whose names are mentioned in connection with the nomina- tion? It has been charged that he and ‘lam- many knifed Cleveland in the last contest and that Hill is under the control of Tamman; The falsity of these propositions is manifest from an inspection of the record of the votes cast for Cleveiand in 1884 and in 1888 t ively. His vote fell off in the the latter year in counties in the interior where he been strong in 1884, and actually increased by about 12,009 in New York, where Hill and Tammany were supposed to be all powerful. Cleveland's te also diminished in Brooklyn, where the democratic organization is believed to have been iiostile to Lamaiany. WHAT THE SOUTH WANTS. “We of the south want a man nominated who can be elected. The south can get along with or without free coinage, with or without pro- tection, for we have natural advantages which enable us to stand a xreat strain, but we cannot prosper under a force bill. Ibeheve that the vote of New York is necessary for democratic success. I have my doubts about our ca any western state except, perhaps, Indiana. Be- fore mye epee election we bear a great deal of talk about carrying this or that western state, but Ihave observed that the democracy has not carried a western state except Indiana occasionally since the in @ presidential struggle. Texans know more Texan sentiment than New Yorkers and New Yorkers are more fainiliar with political feeling in New York than outsiders. ‘Ihe unanimous vote of a democratic convention legally organized in the state of New York bas declared to the ple of the country that Senator Hill is the choice* of the democracy of that state for the presidential nomination, and I am willing to accept the declaration as true. WILL AND TAMMANY. “Hill is sound upon the tariff. He has given the country to understand that he would not veto a free coinage bill if elected. He has the prestige of success. He has never been de- feated. He ‘turns the rascals out.’ The onl opposition to him in New York is not personal, but is avowedly against the convention which nominated him. It was legally convened and lawfully held and the ‘kickers,’ #0 called, if they be good democrats, will bow to the will of the party. If not they ought to have no yoice ina democratic convention. The charge that Hill is under the control of Tammany is devoid of truth. He is not a man to be dominated by individuals or organizations. But the hue and cry against Tammany which has been raised by a number of democrats, particulariy in the south, is largely attributable to a lack of knowl- edge on their part of the composition, scope and object of that organization. THE MACHINE NECESSART. “After the war Tammany was the only organized democratic organization of prom- imence in the country and was the nucleus around which the democracy could rally. It was and is essential to democratic suceees. It is called ‘the machine “The me- chine’ simply means organization. Disintegrate Tammany and tt is extremely doubtful, to say the least, whether New York would be rellably democratic, ‘Tammany has been charged wit corruption. S0 has the democratic party; #0 has the republican party: 80 bave all political arties been charged. But to the credit of ‘ammany, be it said that she punished through her members—Tilden, O'Connor and others— the men who were accused of corruption. She pute up men of brains and character for re- Sponmble public positions and carries the elec. tions in the city and in the state of New York. Even those who declaim against the organiza tion get up early in the morning of the day after each presidential election and an: inquire ‘How did New York go?” And they elated if ‘democratic’ is the answer. this will be the response to the question if Hill is will | DISASTER AT A DETROIT FIRE. Action of the Base Ball Delegates in New York, OTHER TELEGRAPHIC NEWS, AGAINST WOMAN DELEGATES, Action Taken by the Baltimore Conference This Morning. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star. Bavrmwors, Mp., March 3.—The Baltimore conference this morning refused to admit women delegates to the general conference of the Methodist Episcopal church by a vote of 89 | yeas to 187 nays. The gallories were crowded with ladies and much interest was exhibited. ‘The vote was about the same as at the annual conference which met in Wasbi last year, when the vote was 144 to 40. At noon when the tellers were counting the vote the question was again «prung upon the conference by'a motion of Rey. A. M. Courte- nay that the conference instruct ite delegates: to oppose the admission of women delegates to the general conference unless the official re- turns show a majority of the votes are in favor of the admission of women. Dr. Courtenay made a speech saying that be believed the time would come when women would be admitted, but now he thought the conference ought, through bis motion, pre- fent its protest against what seems to be and unadvised action, and that the conference should then express iteelf an favor of the neral conference at its next session acting ‘on the lines which it did at the last conferenee. This brought Kev. W. T. D. Clemm to hie feet in an earnest protest against the motion, saying the minority yoted for the women on principle. They showed their backbone and | did not now propose to have = motion sprung upon them practically to make the resolutions against the admission of women delegates unan~ imous. Rev. ©. H. Richardson and others strongly supported Dr. Courtenay’s resolution. wv. C. W. Baldwin thought the time would come when women would be admitted. He thought that it was inexcusable in the majority for Laving choked off all debate on the woman question and he wished to enter his protest, It was a pretty lively debate. Dr. Courtenay's motion finally prevailed by asmall show of bands, and thus the confer- ence entered itself opposeu to the admission of woman and asked the general conference to continue on the same lines, At its last session the conference by ® show of hands refused to agree to the resolution pmmunicated from the Philadelphia conter- nee, asking that the delegates to the assembly sball consist of an equal number of laymen and ministers and that the two sets of delegates shall always act together as one body. i> THE FLOOR GAVE way.
