The past year has been a rather disastrous one for the sport of polo. The breaking out of the war with Spain took many of the boldest riders and strongest polo players into the ranks of the U. S. Army, materially crippling almost every polo club in the country. The game, however, has made some advance, although the championship contests were narrowed down to two teams. Polo Association, which controls the sport in this country, is composed of twenty clubs. The office is at 15 Church st., Manhattan, Room 6. H. L. Herbert is the chairman. The The annual championship game was played as usual in the Parade Ground, Prospect Park, Brooklyn, and was witnessed by upward of 20.000 people. The game was played for the championship cup and added individual cups. Polo The contenders were the Meadowbrook Club, winner of the previous year's championship, and the Philadelphia Country Club. The game was a particularly clean cut one, not a penalty being charged against either club. The Meadowbrooks again won the championship by the score of 14 goals to 7 goals. The clubs comprising the Polo Association, together with the colors, delegates, members and their handicaps are as follows: COUNTRY CLUB-Brookline, Mass. Colors, white, cherry hoop and cap. F.

The Election law of 1898, passed by the Legislature in extraordinary session, made provision for the appointment by the Governor of a Superintendent of Elections at an annual salary of $5,000, said superintendent to have the appointment of six hundred deputies, half to be chosen from each party in the counties of New York, Kings, Queens, Richmond and Westchester, which were constituted a metropolitan election district for the purposes of the act. The salary of the deputies is $5 per day for not exceeding forty days prior to and including election. The deputies are authorized on their own motion, or on complaint of any citizen, to investigate all questions relating to registration of voters, being empowered for that purpose first, to visit and inspect any house, dwelling, building, inn, lodging house or hotel within the metropolitan district and interrogate the inmates thereof; second, to arrest any person without warrant who within personal observation violates or attempts to violate any of the provisions of the elections law or of the Penal Code relating to crimes against the franchise; third, to execute warrants of arrest; fourth, to inspect and copy any books, papers, records or documents affecting registration and elections; and fifth, to require lodging-house keepers to exhibit their registers of lodgers at any time. Citizens are required to assist deputies in the enforcement of the law when called upon to do so under threat of being arrested for a felony and sentenced to imprisonment for a period not exceeding three years. The State Superintendent and each deputy must be admitted at any time within any polling place. The outcry against the law on the part of the Democratic party was so great that within the district it refused to submit to Superintendent of Elections McCullagh a list of the men who would be eligible for deputies, whereupon the superintendent appointed them himself. The first election under the law passed off quietly, there being few arrests and little disorder, contrary to expectation. Under the provisions of section 14 of the new primary law, which is Chapter 79, of the Laws of 1898, either party may adopt the plan of choosing its candidates by the direct vote of its enrolled members at the primary election. The change is radical and one which every member of the party in the cities and villages to which the law applies must pass upon separately before it can be adopted. In Brooklyn all local nominations may be made in this way. Raw Silk Trade. The importation of raw silk in 1868 amounted to $2,520,404 in value; 1878, $5,995,567; 1858. $19,931,682, and in 1898, $31,446 800. In the eingle item of "silk, raw, or as reeled from the cocoons," the importations of 1868 were 512,449 pounds; 1878, 1,182,750 pounds; 1888, 5.173,840 pounds, and in 1898, 10,315,161 pounds. In 1868 the importations of manufactured silk were $17,777,627; in 1878, $19,837.972; in 1888, $33.350,999; in 1890, $38,686,374, and in 1898, $23,523.110. The United States exports of manufactured silk were. In 1878, $19,032, having Increased to $56,659 in In the 1858, $161,673 in 1893, and $297,074 in 1898. month of August, 1898, the exports were $27,251, against $21,400 in August, 1897, an increase of 30 per cent. in a single year. The population of Russia is increasing at the rate of 1,000,000 a year. 1 POLITICAL CAMPAIGNS OF 1896, 1897, 1898. The Presidential campaign of 1896 was one of the bitterest since the days just after the Civil War. There were divisions in both parties that had been foreshadowed by financial discussions in Congress resulting in several Republican senators and congressmen joining the populistic ranks. The nomination of W. J. Bryan in a moment of wild enthusiasm by the Democratic national convention resulted naturally in a platform suited to the views of the section from which the can law, struck at combinations or trusts, favored municipal ownership of franchises, demanded the reduction of the price of gas to $1 per 1,000 feet. welcomed the incoming of capital, demanded just consideration for organized labor, and pledged itself to the enforcement of the eight-hour law; protested against the use of injunctions in labor troubles, denounced attempted evasion of taxation by the rich, demanded adequate school accommodations, and the early extension of rapid transit; advocated public improvements, including good roads, bicycle paths, improved pavements, open playgrounds, small parks and pier gardens didate was taken, and the National Democratic party was committed to free silver. Eastern Democrats to a great extent depiored the situation, but the state conventions fell into line, and state platforms endorsed the issue. As a result Democratic party pledged to the gold standard was organized, and John M. Palmer of Illinois made its candidate for President. Many gold Democrats voted for the Republican candidate, but 134,182 votes were cast for Palmer. The finan-ership of lighting, telephone, railway and other а cial question overshadowed every other point in the platform and the campaign was carried on practically on that issue. As a result William McKinley, the Republican candidate, was elected, receiving 7,102,272 votes, against 6,273,624 for W. J. Bryan. The electoral Vote was as follows: McKinley, 271; Bryan, 176. Levering, the Prohibition candidate, received 131,070 votes and 216,196 votes for the Bryan and Watson, or the Populist ticket. Campaign of 1897. The campaign of 1897 exceeded in interest if not in bitterness the campaign of 1896. The consolidation of the cities had been effected, the struggle for the offices of the greater municipality controlling as they do enormous patronage, was of the fiercest character. As in the presidential The platform adopted by the Henry George Democracy reaffirmed primarily the creed set forth by the National Convention of the Democratic party at Chicago, July 9, 1896, condemned Tammany Hall for failure to re-endorse that platform, gave assurances of fidelity to William J. Bryan, declared in favor of municipal ownfranchises, denounced class distinction in legislation, demanded cheaper gas, declared in favor of municipal improvements, denounced legislative interference in the government of cities and pointed to the Raines law as a pernicious example of the evils of that system, criticised government by injunction, and ended by asserting that the Jeffersonian Democracy was the regular Democracy of New York City. Despite the fact that the platform of the Democracy of Thomas Jefferson contained no reference to the single tax, the propaganda, of which its candidate for Mayor had been the prophet, of men who had sat at his feet as disciples in there then was an immediate rush to his standard, that theory, yet who were entirely ignorant of the Their self practical politics of New York City. abnegation was illustrated by the manner in i which they neglected their personal business and contest, the campaign was involved and intricate owing to a division in party organization. Many men of high character and standing, dis-occupations, and their reckless disregard of self trusting the old organizations, determined upon interest was emphasized by the fact that the Jeffersonian Democracy was entirely without a an independent movement and the result was campaign fund. The popularity of the George movement attracted the attention of minor organ the Citizens' Union, which nominated Seth Low for Mayor. Tammany Hail decided upon Robert A. Van Wyck, then a city judge, while the Repub-izations and the representative of the Democratic lican organization, after declining to endorse Mr. Low, selected General Benjamin F. Tracy. Another new factor in the field was the Democracy of Thomas Jefferson which placed in nomination for Mayor Henry George, reiterating the Chicago platform which Tammany Hall sought to belittle in the campaign. Other organizations appeared in the field and the campaign started with these parties in action. Republican, Democratic, National Democracy, Socialistic-Labor, Prohibition, Citizens' Union. Democracy of Thomas Jefferson, and the Battle Ax Democracy, known under its motto of "Neither Tea Nor Tiger." The platforms of the parties did not vary widely. The Citizens' Union adopted no regular platform, but took its stand upon Mr. Low's letter of acceptance, in which he asserted that he was a Republican, but would administer the office of Mayor free from partisan obligations; that he believed in impartial enforcement of the Civil ServIce laws; in home rule for cities unhampered by legislative control; in city ownership of chises; in speedy completion of the Rapid Transit system; in improvements in schools and docks and other public projects; in just administration of the labor laws, and in improved excise legislation in harmony with the real sentiments of the people affected by it. fran The Republican platform endorsed the resolutions of the National Republican convention at St. Louis; condemned that adopted at Chicago by the Democratic party; endorsed President McKinley, Governor Black and the last Republican Legislature; attacked Tammany and Willoughby street control of municipal affairs; advocated municipal ownership of franchises; endorsed the Raines law, and commended the factory inspection law, the mechanics' lien law, the statute regulating the employment of minors in mercantile establishments, the anti-sweaters' law; the law guaranteeing union wages on public works, and the law preventing the subletting of contracts. The platform adopted by Tammany Hall denounced the Republican administration of New York City, advocated home rule, demanded perenal liberty for the citizen, condemned the Raines Alliance, a coterie of men pledged to certain pop- Consternation was thrown into the ranks of his followers by the sudden death of Henry George early on the morning of the 29th of October. after the most energetic and arduous night of his campaign, and there the hopes of the organization practically ended. It nominated Henry George, a son of the former candidate, but life had practically gone out of the campaign, and the organization was never after that considered an important factor in the campaign. The platforms of the other organizations were unimportant. The National, or gold, Democracy of the previous year endorsed the Citizens' Union ticket; the United Democracy (O' Brienites) endorsed the Henry George_ticket; the Independent Democracy nominated Patrick J. Gleason; William T. Wardwell was made the candidate of the Prohibitionists; the Socialist Labor party nominated Lucian Saniel and the German-American Reform Union endorsed Low. The strength of the Citizens' Union greatly alarmed the Republican leaders and in Kings County especially great 'bitterness was engendered in the Republican ranks. The Willis faction of the Republican organization succeeded in deposing the Worth leaders in the county convention and signalized their victory by seizing upon every available place upon the county ticket for the little coterie of their managers, much to the freely expressed disgust of the rank and file of the party. |
