sil LZKR'S CHANCES VERSUS
TAMMANY WISDOM
There are not many people famil
iar with the Sulzer-Tainmany row
now being (ought out on the issues
at impeachment who believe that Su,
zer has the ghost of a show. And
that belief is not founded upon a
conviction that Sulzer ought to
lose iu the impeachment trial, al
though that conviction itself may ob
tain. For reasons that appear tc
he good and sufficient unto itself,
Tammany has willed it that Sulzei
should be forced doyn and out, and
all the prating about the high
miuded qualifications of those whc
compose the court of impeachment
to the contrary notwithstanding, the
Tammany will is to be executed to
the letter, unless it shall appear
upon the face of things that re
venge upon Sulzw will cost Tam
many more than it is worth.
While the revolt against Tamman
In the recent primaries was not so
startling nor so univresal as it
might have been and indeed as it
might have been and, indeed, as it
ient volume to indicate that the Sul
zer quarrel was causing disaffec
tion and that if proceedings to the
end were conducted with too high
a hand, Tammany might work dam
age to itself that it wwild be diffi
cult to repair.
Usually in such oases we have
illustration of the old proverb about
the insanity of those whom the
gods would destroy, for the fact is
Unit excessive power is liable to
make men drunk and destroy their
s»»nse of perspective. .It would be
rather strange if that condition did
not obtain with such a self-centered
organization as Tammany; and,
again, it is quite possible that the
Tammany "Boss" believes that ul
timately the public will regard his
alleged motives for the impeach
went of Sulzer with seriousness and
| as stated in good faith. The public
I will never do this, and moreover
| the public 's mighty apt to regard
I the condemnation of the present
Governor by the court of impeach
ment as indubitable evidence that
t Tammany can do what it likes with
!the government of New York. It
may take something like public
I conviction on that point to bring
about the revolt against this orgau
' ization that will be effective.
On the other hand there is the
J bare chance that the superior po
litical wisdom which rules Tammany
. may be able to read the handwrit
i ing on the wall, and forestall the
, oct that would lead to final disas
, ter. If th3 court impeachment
(should acquit by the order of Tam
many, jthe leaders of that organiza
. tion would assert that all this talk
about the State Assembly being ab
solutely within its grasp and sub
ject to its bidding was merely the
spiteful and slanderous assault of
! its enemies. There is a fine oppor
tunity for Machiavelian play in the
premises, and the question arises,
, will it be made, or will the tempta
j tion to crush the Governor regard
less of consequences prevail?—Port
