Were It True that Murphy Has Already Offered the Nomination to the Congressman, It Would Be a Return to Tweed’s Political Methods. < Charles Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall, declares: “There is no rouble between Tammany Hall and the Kings County Democracy, and there will not be any.” BuT— Boss McLaughlin, leader of the Kings County Democracy, said to an ‘Evening World reporter to-day: ‘It is true that the Kings County Demooracy regards the proposed uomination of Congressman McClellan for Mayor of New York as inadvisable because of Mr. McClellan’s intimate ' yelat ons with the leader of Tammany and the fact that he is not known to the public to be a strong man peraonally.”” “Will the Kings County delegation oppose Mr. McClellan in the con- -ention if Mr. Murphy persists in nominating him?” Mr. McLaughlin was “asked. WILL OPPOSE McCLELLAN. “T think it will,” was the answer. “Indeed, I am quite confident that $f Mr. McClellan is nominated it will be against the protest and in opposi- tion to the vote of the delegates from this county.” . “Do you think Mr. Murphy will nominate Mr. McClellan despite the ‘protest, having the necessary vote at his command to-do so?” “J do not care just now to indicate my opinion on that point. I think it enough to say that should he do so he would incur a wholly unnecessary risk of defeat at the polls, It is entirely practicable for Mr. Murphy and his igmédiate advisors to find a candidate with whom they are on good terme, whose democracy is not questionable and who may even be a member of the ‘Tammany organization, without exciting the opposition of Kings County Democrats and alienating any considerable number of voters, as McClellan ‘would be likely to do.” WHAT HE INSISTS ON. “Then it is not true that Kings County has insisted on the Being given to an independent Democrat.” “No. We insist upon nothing, except that the nominee shall be a Demo- erat likely to attract and not repel independent votes; a man whose ¥ecognized integrity ar’ force of character would furnish assurance to the people that honesty and not graft would flourish under his administration.” “It is stated positively in some quarters that Mr. Murphy haa offered the nomination to Mr. McClellan.” “Many things are stated positively without being true. I am reluctant te believe that the new leader of Tammany would take a step so incon- wistent with prudence, with the best Democratic precedents, and with his own ‘promises. WOULD BE LIKE TWEED’S METHOD. “Were the reports true I should have to conclude that he had fallen back on the old Tammany tactics of Tweed's time, which brought nothing but ruin to the party. “I have for more than fifty years opposed the Tweed method of conducting politics and intend to do so while I live. “If the best interests of the party are to be promoted there must be reasonable deference shown to the judgment of all the honest elements in ‘the party. Such purely personal motives as the nomination of McClellan gould indicate, backed up by a yeliance upon a mere majority vote in the gonyention can never be productive of good to a great political organiza- ton.” CUTTING SLAPS AT FULTON “IN A LETTER TO JEROME.
