CLOSING UP THE RANKS Before another Sunday dawns on the politicians the momentous Question as to who will be Mayor of New York tor 1879 and 1830 will be settlec. Theanxiety ot weeks ana montnos will then be allayed and tbe victors immediately begin to cast around ina vig- orous search for the spoils of office. Un whichever banner the light of success may shine the political iollowers are certain to engage in a determined and exciting struggle for the varioas fat oflices to be dim posed of after the Lat of January, During the past week both parties have been engased night and day in working up public opinion through all the districts of the city. Meetings have been held, documents circulated and all other cone ceivable efforts resorted to in furthering the in- terests of candidates, It {is universally conceded that the Tammany gatherings have been more entbusi- astic and better attended than iu former campaigns, The real iine dividing issues of the controversy, as between Samuel J. Tilden and the regular demo. cratic organization of this city, are thoroughly under. stood, Any objections that may have been raised to so-called Tammany dictatership seem to have been generally obliterated when the people came to look upon the struggle in its true Nght. The pecaliar combination of anti Tammany soreheads, disappointed office-seekers and machino republicans does not appear to suit the masses of independent voiers. A decidod wavering, too, is observable tn the republican lines, whi al of the anti-Tammany rank and file snow un- mistakable signs of striking bhanus with the Four- teenth street organization, The only possible way to procure any definite in- formation as to the real prospects und undercurrent of the present exciting canvass is to circulate among the politicians on all sides, Yosterday the Hxxatp reporter met a number of the lead Tammuay Hall, tue Westminster Hotel, the Filth Avenue Hotel, Irving Hali and other places, in talking with an ex- republican candidate from Kings couaty, who bas mingled with his colleagues in this ciyy continually for the past two weeks, tho following points were ob- tained: — “What is thought about the combination ticket in republican ranks?” “Very iew like it, It may be supported by many who cetost it because they have no tleket of their own, Some dislike it because the suc. cess of Cooper, if it means anything at all, means that the municipal machinery, with ite vast patropage, will beset jo motion to advance the interests of Samuel J, Tild: Mr. Cooper, everybody understanas, 1s a politician identified witn Tilden and bitterly hostile to Mr, Kelly.”” “Ie that the main cause of disaffection in republi- can ranks?”’ “Ye, but a smail number are anxious to overthrow the Arthur dynasty, which has been settling like ag incubus upon the republican party. This dynasty ts 10 all ossential characteriatics like a royal régime that devotes its entire statecrais and political achemes to tho elevation of its own house, The party has been spoliated and used tor years in thisway. It isall tbetime Howland, Erhardt and Pheipe—one branch of Pheips in the District Attorney’s ofllce, the other branch in the Custem House. Night inepectora and tide-waiters bhuve beon thrown as bones to the rankand file, It ts a despotic tyranny, dissimilar from Tammany Hall tyranny ip tpat it 1s not exere cised for the benefit of the republican organization, but for the personal advantage of pets and friends, while the Tammany dospotism, althougo an autos cracy, 18 yet exorcised to vaild up and help the demo cratic orgaulzai@n,* “What will ve the result of this disaffection?” “Tne tue ts rather short for this feeling to mani« fost self with xreat force at the polls, but I am al- most satised that suilicient republican voters wiil be louud either te stay away trom the pulis vp election day OF to cat their ballots for Augustus Sehell, watch will resultim tuat yentieman’s election, This is the oniy Way in which they cau make tuvir protest et- lective. A defeat of the comuination ticket will, of course, bury ihe preseat republican mgchive out of Bight.

The Tammany candidates were willing te sake fortune and reputation that the flag of the wig- wam would flout in triumph the day after battle, while on the other band the combination candidates expressed a conviction that their day of victory was athand, All sides were heard and jotted down, Ma Jorities were bandied about by the rival candidates with a generosity which will result ia many a heart ache ou the day of election.
