Democrats Who Differ on Local Issues Asksd to stale Their Differences When It Contes to Choosing Their Congtetsmen. New Torlc, Oct. 16.—The following appeal was Issued today at the Demo cratic state headquarters. In the Park Avenue hotel, hy Senator Faulkner, chairman of the Democratic congres sional campaign committee: "Forty days ago, by reason of the dissatisfaction at the slow action of congress In passing a Itarlft bill, and ta very general misunderstanding of the character of the bill which was ulti mately passed, we hall but little hope of carrying a majority In the Fifty- fourth congress. The political improve ment of the situation in the interest of Democracy during that brief «perlod, however, has been marvellous. A better understanding of the provisions of the l.w land a. realisation of tie fact that united action Is essential In order to enable the party to redeem its pledges and to hold up the hands of 'the Democratic administration during the next two years has stopped 'the W'k- crlngB which were dividing Its coun sels and harmonised the factional trou ble In Its organisation >to such an ex tent that the prospects are now bright, wih a united and aggressive party, to hold a fair working majority In the next house. To accomplish this, how ever, we can afford to have no divisions ■which tend to separate and disinte grate ohr forces. You can therefore fully apreclate the anxiety which I feel in reference to the recent action In thl3 city In the nomination In eight of the districts of two Democratic can didates. In estimating our ability to maintain a working majority we have necessarily counted upon the New York Democracy giving us She full number of members iwe have in the present house. If we fill In realising this, it is questionable whether It will be po3slb!e to maintain our supremacy In the na- 11op.il legislature.. "These divisions In New York are not only dangerous from the stand point of losing a majority of members in this state, hut the moral effect upon the country, districts of New York nnq oth’r sections of the Union will b» exceedingly discouraging. It 1 will tend to rhake the hope and paralyse the en ergies of .the party In Its earnest ef forts 'to sink all personal feelings and fac-ICnal antagonism In the Interest of a common cause. Whatever -may be the differences which may divide the party upon local Issues there ora 'be and should be no excuse for a division on national lines. The supremacy Of the national •Democratic organization should not be Imperilled that local results may be promoted or local re forms encouraged. ' “•I believe I voice the sentiment off our national Democracy when I Insist «hslt union and harmony on congres sional nomination should _ be the first consideration of the patriotic Dem ocracy of 'this city. ■ "This Is a question which not only effects the control of the next house, but may Imperil 'She ■nnt'onal party In the election of 1836. "Today the state of Now York, if tthe election was to he passed by the house, would oast its vote for a Demo crat to occupy the presidential dhialr. Nineteen of its thirty-four vetMM* Democratic. A loss of two congress men In thlssta te would give the vote in 1897 of the state of Now York to a 'Republican for president, should the contingency occur so that the office was thrownl nto the -house of ropre- reason, charged as I have been by the. paf ty in conducting the campaign for congressional candidates. I appeal to all elements, factions and divisions of the Democratic unite and harmonize on the «°ngrcs sior.al ticket and to do no act which .will naturally 'tend to weaken and en danger the naltlonal supremacy of our party.” HIM, AT LITTLE FALLS.
