The Rochester Vont-Kxprigs is authority for the statement state-ment th&t the leaders of the party arc practically a unit for Mr. Flower. That gentleman has one strong recommendation, recommenda-tion, and that is the possession of large wealth which he is disposed to spend freely for the benefit of the party and his politic advancement. Ho lias only fair ability and no particular reputation as a politician. It is presumed that Mr. Flower is friendly to Governor Hill's presidential aspirations, and In the event of his nomination and election th boa of the democratic machine iu the Kmpire state will have a man ut the helm who will keep the partv in the path he has marked out. But there ought to be several republicans in New York who could easily beat Mr, Flower and his barrel. |
