The Re- publicans can get all the votes they want up the State. Even when we piled up 123, 000 majority for Coler in the city in 1902, the Re- publicans went it 8000 better above the Bronx. '*That 's why it makes me mad to hear about up-State Democrats controUin' our State convention, and sayin' who we shall choose for President. It 's just like Staten Island undertakin' to dictate to a New York City convention. I remember once a Syracuse man came to Richard Croker at the Demo- cratic Club, han...ded him a letter of introduc- tion and said : ' I 'm lookin' for a job in the Street Cleanin' Department; I 'm backed by a hundred up-State Democrats. ' Croker look- ed hard at the man a minute and then said : ' Up-State Democrats ! Up-State Democrats ! I did n't know there was any up-State Dem- ocrats. Just walk up and down a while [82] NATURAL-BORN HAYSEEDS till I see what an up-State Democrat looks like. ' "Another thing.
