r Vhy should the Treasury Department
Ij attempt the Impossible In the way of en
forcing 1 tnx law which the Supreme Court
hs left ns It has left the Income tax
i The matter 1s I for Congress not for the
Q I 1 Bureau of Intcrnil Itcveiiue No human
being can clearly distinguish Income which
t i j U legally assessable from Income legally ex
t empt from assessment As the case stands

I P I l I outrage or injustice and inequity nnd nn
V 1 ii i embarrassment of lawsuits immeasurably I
greater than the complications which would
i L hnvo confronted the collectors and tho
t courts if there had been decision on Mon
day favorable to the law or even to any part
of the law
Once during his term Mr CLEVELAND has
p I I risen above personal considerations and
partisan politics and rendered t the coun
try 1 service of Importance far reach
z ing In Its consequences We refer to the
r Presidents conduct at the time of the great
1 I railroad riots in Illinois and elsewhere
when Anarchy showed its hideous head
I
t Be did his duty then like a man of courage
t and a patriotic Chief Magistrate
1 Ill j I He has another great opportunity now
if U at somo sacrifice perhaps of political ad
I t vantnge and personal comfort
I B t II Let him suspend MI efforts on the part
If 11 II of the Treasury Department t collect an
i Income tax which the remaining shreds of
I I i the Income Tax law do not define and then
IJ i rj I cither call an extra session of Congress or
1 await the next regular session of the Fed

The manly thing to do would be to call
I f i Congress together at once and In view of
t i 1 the circumstances of the present condi

i h Would b the best thing t do

I tho President is ready t take this re
f r sponsibility the country is I ready to stand
by him as It stood by him In the summer
of 1804
I Mr Cleveland Aaalnst tho Income Tax
1 t Mr WILLIAM L WILSON is now 1 member
I to of Mr CLEVELANDS Cabinet The two dis
i tinguished reformers of the nations fiscal
i r r system see each other at least once a week
t perhaps every day I will give the Presi
i dent therefore not the least personal in
convenience t procure from the Postmas
I terGeneral the original of the letter which
t Mr CLEVELAND addressed to Mr WILSON
i last summer on the subject of tho confer
ence between the Senate and the House with
t i respect t the tariff bill then pending
l Near the end of that letter Mr CLEVE
1 LAND will find In his own minute and
painstaking chirography this reference t
j the Income tax
I You know how much I deprecated the
incorporation in the propoied bill of the
p income tax feature
l That was the first Intimation of any oppo
aitlon on Mr CLEVELANDS part t the In
4 come tax feature of the WILSON Tariff bill
t I his nicsasgo to Congress In the previous
P t December the President had specifically
r recommended the incorporation in the Tariff
w bill of I 0 small tax upon incomes derived
f from certain corporate investments eulo
f Sizing that tax as absolutely just and
I j I easily borne Six months later 8 we
i ps have seen he was reminding Mr WILSON
that be the President had deprecated the In
c come tax feature of the Tariff bill
The only explanation of this singular dis
crepancy that has ever been offered no far
I a we know is based on the theory that the
t Income tax which Mr CLEVELAND had In
i mind In December 1803 was a corporation
t Income tax pure and simple and that the
t 4 tax on individual Incomes never met with
his approval
t t The tax which the Internal Hevenuo ofil
4 i cere will now attempt to collect unless
I i their hands are stayed by orders from the
r J i President is in its principal features of in
justice discrimination and oppression the
I tax which Mr CLEVELAND deprecated rather
i f than the tax which he recommended and ap
t proved and its odious discriminations are 0
t f hundred times magnified by the excision of
f the provisions which the Supreme Court has
t declared t b unconstitutional
i t It is now in the power of the President to
Ii Jtlll the tax which ho opposed and depre
I cuted at tho time of IU Incorporation In the
I J I bill according to his statement to Mr WL
I SON on July 2 1814 He has only t issue
i 3 t the necessary orders through Secretary
f I t CAIiLISLE to Commissioner MILLEU

Mayor STRONG has approved an Iniprac
tlcablo resolution of the Board of Alder
tt men requesting the heads of city depart

i2 f As that day sacred as it is In the Christian
I calendar Is not 0 legal holiday of course
some of the most Important and active of
tf these departments must remain open per
W jji force Neither Mayor STRONG nor the Board
of Aldermen can make a legal holiday
wae legl holday
i The reason given by the Mayor for aj >
1 t proving so promptly the pious but ineffec
I tive resolution of the Aldermen Is peculiar
E and symptomatic of his general Ignorance

himself and WILLIAM I STRoNG Mayor
Intrusted with the administration of I pub
lic office OH a servant of the people under
subjection to the laws mae by them He is
no longer I free agent except that ho is at
liberty to resign his office a Mayor So
long R ho remains in It he must render
obedience t law under the penalty of being
turned out The people have laid out for him
1 very stralghtand narrow path and he must
keep within It at his peril however much he
may desire to go astray In obedience t
his own Inclination As held Of tho dry
roods house of WM Ij STIIOXO Co he
vss the boss As Mayor the people are
his boss Ho could shut up his store
he and his clerks
whenever pleased give cerks

not lie stopped by him The law or tho
will of tho people settles that matter old
lipIds him as Mayor under 1 restraint from

servant with no discretion except such as
the people allow him within I very narrow
range and to a very limited extent What
he did nn head of tho firm of WM Ij I STUONO
Co furnishes no guide whatever for his
course as 1 public officer The public have
no Interest In him 81 dry goods merchant
bossing his own business They arc simply
concerned as to how ho conducts himself
as their Rervnnt
This complete change In their relations Is
sometimes forgotten both by the Mayor and
by the men of trade and business whom ho
has appointed t office They have not yet
altogether got over the notion that they con
stitute 1 firm of WM U STUONO Co
for the government of New York though In
reality they are merely agents and Instru

people their masters
However Mayor STHONO himself Is at
liberty t spend Good Friday at church and
not at tho City Hall and his Intention of
taking day off to attend to his religious
duties is commendable in him personal
The JInyors Promise to OBrien
The persistent attack recently made on
the Hon JAMES OUitiEN of this town He
form candidate for the office of Police Com
missioner reveals the insincerity of many
of those who proclaim themselves to b per
sonal supporters of Mr STRONG They at
tack Sit AM us OBlllEN the Reformer not
because they are or would be hostile to labs
appointment as Police Commissioner in
place of a thoroughgoing Tammany Demo
crat but because they believe that Cal
STRONG having promised before election
and since to mako OBRIEN 1 Commis
sioner they can by attacking OBRIEN dis
suade Col STRONG from keeping faith with
his most prominent and ardent I not most
responsible Democratic supporter and may
thus so to speak discredit STRONG as A man
of his word and the possessor of sand and
sincerity The attack on OBRIEN Is based
on an unsavory episode in his career in 1838
thirtyseven years ago
JIMMY l OBniEN was born in the town of
oat Westmeath in 1880 In 1858
when a youth of 10 he was convicted this
city of disorderly conduct 0 misdemeanor
but was pardoned by 1 Republican Gov
ernor JOHN A KINO He was subsequently
six years later chosen an Alderman from
the district In which he resided when con
victed and afterward Sheriff New York
1 position which since Jan 1 1804 has
been brought into unmerited reproach and
disgrace by an incapable individual named
TAMSEN a stranger alike to the language 1 offi
cial regulations political amenities and
legal obligations of paid public functionaries
in the United States
OBRIEN began his career as an opponent
of Tammany Hall in 1871 after he had
held for full term of three the
a ful years posi
tion of Sheriff The Committee of Seventy
of that year the model and prototype of the
present TO chose Mr OBRIEN as its candi
date for State Senator in 1871 and the Re
publicans of the Seventh district supported
him with such vigor that he was elected
Three years later OBlllEN was the Republican
can candidate for Congress the Tenth dis
trict against the Hon AIIRAM S HEWITT
and four years later in 1878 he was the
Republican candidate for Congress in the
same district against the late ORLANDO B
POTTER the Democratic nominee On the
former occasion ho had as his associate In
his warfare against Tammany the lon Os
WALD OTTESDOKFER They ran on the same
ticket In the latter contest he was the
partisan associate of the Hon KDWARD
COOPEII When he ran on the ticket
with Mr COOPER ho received 1 large
vote and was elected When he ran
with Mr OTTENDORFER hU vote Wit
smaller and he was defeated Another
penalty for the fellowship seems to have
been added in that this defeat has always
rankled iu Herr OTTENDORFKHS heart and
caused him to b dissatisfied with poor
OBRIEN The statute of limitations two
years for misdemeanors had been worn out
seven years when OBRIEN was elected
Sheriff eleven years when lie was elected
State Senator twelve years when he was 1
candidate for Mayor of Now York and six
teen years when he was elected a member of
Fortysixth Congress OBuiENsterm in
Congress expired in 1881 and the Republicans
cans did not renominate him Since then he
has been almost continuously the ally of the
Republican party In this town fighting for
its cause and laboring for its candidates
supporting Gel HARRISON for President
in 1888 and Mr MORTON for Governor
in 1804 Whatever may have been his early
and previous delinquencies they were long
since condoned by his Republican critics
And it is 1 fact for which all Democrats
hold OBRIEN responsible that the only two
Republican Mayors of this city In thirty
years owe their election to him more than
t any other agency I was OBRIENS bolt
in 1872 which elected HAp IEnn It was
OBRIENS discovery of STRONU In 1804
which assured to the latter a nomination
which probably but for him would have
gone to another
While Democrats of New York regard
OBRlfN as a persistent guerrilla beyond tho
party breastworks they can see no solid rea
son why the specific personal pledge given In
advance of the election and renewed hlnee by
Mr STHONO should not be fulfilled and
why tho sincerity and good faith of the
Mayor should h Impeached by assaults
ostensibly on SiiAMfb OliinrN but actu
ally by indirection upon the head of the
present nonpartisan Illpartisan and pro
partisan municipal administration of New
York affairs
The Greater New York IIIII
The Greater New York bill now In com
mittee of the Senate simply declares that
In accordance with the veto of the commu
nities concerned they are hereby con noil
dated with the municipal corporation known
as the Mayor Aldermen nnd Commonalty
of the city of New York All the detniU
of consolidation the plan and methods are
left for fuUire consideration after a charter
for the euljrged city b been prepared and
submitted t the Legislature by the Consol
idation Commission
Tho bill expressly provides that this con
solidation shall in no wise affect or disturb
or discontinue any of tho powers duties
functions right privileges or property of
any officer person body politic and corporate
otherwise existing the
porate or otherwis now or
exercise thereof until the Legislature shall
8 decide The suggestion that it could In
any way interfere with Mayor STRONG or
Mayor SCIIIEREN is entirely without justi
Section I is impossible and nonsensical
The situation as t the Government and the
officers of the Government of each of the
communities involved Is unchanged ab
solutely The various officers thereof says
the bill shall b elected or appointed In
the same manner as heretofore The bill
also adds tho Mayors of New York and
Brooklyn to the Consolidation Commission
which is to prepare 1 charter for the en i
larged city for legislative consideration and
decision
Hence there can bo no reasonable ob
jection to tho measure Tint act of Feb
88 1804 submitted to w vote of the
duly qualified electors of said territory
the question of Its consolidation under one
municipal Government and the decision
was In tho affirmative throughout the
region and by every community con
cerned with the two exceptions only of
the towns of Flushing and West Chester
whoso combined majority against the
proposition was Ics than fifty rite
majority in its favor throughout tho area
of the Greater i New York was 44188 This
bill consequently by formally declaring the
consolidation simply renders obedience to
the vote of the people without disturbing
In any respect existing political conditions
in the consolidated area or interfering with
any officer privilege or authority
It ought therefore to be passed as a matter
of course and as an obligation of the Legis I
lature to the people to whom the question
of consolidation vas refcrreil and who i
declared their will that it should take place
The Signs of Trouble In Scandinavia
I begins to look ns it the dispute between
Norway and Sweden concerning the mlmin
istratlon i of foreign affairs in the united
kingdoms may fail to obtain 1 peaceful set
tlement and lead to war between the two
countries Tho preparations on both sides
indicate i n belief that 1 resort to force is not
Improbable and the gravity of the situation
is increased by the keen interest evinced in
the controversy by Russia which hopes to
obtain an open seaport from the Norwe
gians should they become Independent
The Act of Union whereby Sweden and
Norway were placed under the same sov
ereign in 1814 gave tho former kingdom
exclusive control over foreign affairs for
all other purposes each kingdom is selfgov
erning having 1 distinct Legislature and a
separate Ministry but the Kings Minister
for Foreign Affairs is responsible to the
Swedish Diet alone Tim great expansion
of Norwegian commerce has naturally made
this state of things intolerable and all par
ties iu Norway are agreed that their coun
try ought to have slime share in the regula
tion of relations with foreign powers Tills
is conceded alno by almost everybody in
Sweden but there is a wide difference of
opinion in both countries regarding the ex
t nt of Norways rights and regarding the
cuiiditlond under which they should be
exercised The minimum demand of
the Norwegian liadicnls IH for the de
spatch of separate Norwegian Consuls
to all foreign ports their maximum claim
includes the appointment of a distinct Nor
wegian Minister for Foreign Affairs re
sponsible only to the Storthing nt Chris
tiania and of Norwegian envoys and diplo
matic agents t foreign States Tills maxi
mum claim ls 1 believed to mask 1 purpose
of attaining absolute independence The
Swedes say on the other hand that Nor
ways share in the management of foreign
relations should b proportionate toiler pop
ulation and moreover that thu exercise of
such a right involves the correspondingduty
of contributing proportionately to the means
of national defence These views were
embodied two years ago in I protocol
wherein the Swedish Council oC State
defined the terms on whirli it was
willing to accede to tIm wishes uf
the Norwegians I proposed to borrow I
device from the dual Hjsteni of Austro
hungary ali to make the common Minis
ter for Foreign Affairs responsible to a
joint representative body composed of dele
gations from the two Legislatures the size
of the delegations to IHJ proportionate to
tho population of their respective countries
It further Insisted that Norway should as
sume 1 share In the common defence of the
two nations proportionate to her popula
tion Neither the Radicals nor Conserva
tives of Norway were willing to accept
these conditions for the reason that while
Sweden has 1 wellorganized military and
naval force Norway hns no modern war
ships and no army worth mentioning and
to make good these deficiencies would im
pose a severe burden on the peasants
Such was the situation when the recent
election for the Norwegian Storthing took
place At this election the lindlcnlrf who
pledge themselves that their minimum de
mand would IMJ for separate Con
suls at all ports managed to return a ma
jority but 8 small a one that without some
assistance from Conservatives they could
not form 1 government Tills aid they could
not obtain and accordingly the King who
had come to Cbrlstlunia t open tho Storth
lag has returned to Stockholm without
nominating any Norwegian Ministry To
the request of the Radicals for the appoint
ment of separate Consuls ho replied that he
considered himself bound by tho resolution
of tho Swedish Council of State How
SWtlh Counci Stat Jnw seri
ous the crisis thus brought about may b
come U i evident from the fact that Imme
diately after the Kings arrival in Stock
holm he summoned representatives of the
Swedish Chambers to n secret session and
It has since > I transpired that the Swedish
Government his made all tho arrange
ments requisite for an effective move
ment of troops across the border
The counter agitation iu Norway has
been tarried so far that twenty thou
sand rifles have been ordered and a number
of patriotic ladies have subscribed for
patriotc hllosubscrlbl era gun
oat It would however bu quite impos ¬
sible for Norwa single handed to resist
the force that Sweden might array against
her rIte danger is that Hussia might in
tervene aud such Intervention is advocated
by 1 powerful Moscow organ of the Pan
Slavic agitators who are determined to ob
tain au open port on the Atlantic A glance
at the map will show that they would gain
this could they acquire the Norwegian
portion of the Varanger Fjord which con
tains harbors open through the winter A
railway has already lieeu completed t the
eastern or Russian section of this fjord and
the establishment in this quarter of a great
naval arsenal I ardently wished for by thu
subjects of the Czar
It is plain then that the quarrel between
Norway and Sweden does not affect Scan
dinavia alone but may easily through the
Interposition of Russia which Germany
would Ira almost certain to resist become of
worldwide Importance
Oysters
Several of our Jewish contemporaries
lme given heed to the question whether 0
Jew may partake of oysters under the terms
of the Mosaic law Tho debate upon it
waxed warm In this city 1 short time ago
when at 1 Jewish festival the orthodox
casters were astounded by seeing these
acephalous mollusks In their nhcls upon
the plates that ornamented the tables of the
banqueting ball I was nothing less than
disgusting cried the Hebrew Journal
which declared that the Jewish oyster eater
Is much worse than the most benighted
Anarchist
Wo are mtrpjlsed that several rabbis of
eminence entertain doubts whether the oys
ter Is ama abomination The most erudite dis
quisition upon the subject that has fallen
under our notice since the strange Incident
at the Purim festival Is that of tho vener
able Rabbi ISAAC M WIRI I President of tho
Hebrew Union College a scholar deep In the
Talmud and familiar with everyone of its
chullnR The is that
chulns hl qUI tolls so interesting
we quote the most Important portion of the
judgment of the analytical rnbbl leaving
out those words that are printed In Hebrew
characters

chulln f7 f > The whole question depends on the
point whether the ovstrr shell Is not enua to the
sealr 1 which Mnstti glrM as the sign of cleanness for
the fish which no naturalist will deny
We tlo not believe that this opinion of
Rabbi 1 and President WISH whoso orthodoxy
is i questionable will be regarded n satis ¬
factory cither by the rabbinate at largo or
b the Purim Association either by Chief
Rabbi Joshlll or by the Hebrew Journal
The whole question says Rabbi WISE
depends upon the point which is
indeed i the point in dispute and must bo
settled by science rather than by the Tal
mud Wo fear that there are naturalists
who will deny that the oyster shell Is equal
to time fish scale or even resembles It As
for the decision of MAIMONIDEB about
u oysters grown in ponds outside of the sea
It i t cannot surely b applied by any orthodox i
Talmudist to the marine oysters in the New i
York markets
It seems to us that the Chief Rabbi of
tho Tenth ward and the Hebrew Journal
are strictly on the Mosaic side in this case
and are the true Interpreters of tho words of
MOSES in Ixvitictis Whatsoever hath no
fins b nor scales In the waters shall b an
abomination unto you

We have taken occasion to speak favor

about tho new eysttm we are led l to apprehend
that the professor will till bare far too much
to do with the moulding of the pupils literary
style The theme the thought and the form of
expression of time pupil must meet with the ap
nrovnl > of tlio professor It ceems to us that
this Is overmuch supervision for the free mind
and that the new method bears too cole a re
semblance to the old one under which young
fellows of brains baro so often complained that
thoy had no chance to show them The lee

have tie authority placed In the hands of a
court organized to try causes in the District of
Columbia to hale them to Washington and com
pel them to defend themselves there for alleged
crimes nnd misdemeanors Mr Noyes Is seek
ing to establish a dangerous precedent and It Is
to b bope that ho will be beaten In his at
tempted Invasion constitutional guarantees
From the Jamfstoien Morning Vrtrr
The argument of Franklin Bartlett In behalf
of the defendant was one of tho most masterly
reviews of the Constitution and the law I which
has over been presented In a case of this kind
and It will undoubtedly mako a part of the lit
erature on which case of this character will
depend for argument The exact question has
never before been raised and It Is well that It
ha come up under circumstances which permit
of a full consideration of every aspect of the
law a the precedent established will be of great
Importance In tho future The Supreme Court
of the District of Columbia through Its Grand
Jury has fonnd an indictment against Mr
Dana on the complaint of a Mr Noyes editor or
manager of the Washington Star and It I
claimed that under the law ul 1874 redacting
and amending tbe judiciary act of 1780 this
court being D United States Court ho juris
diction of the oerson of Mr Dana In any part of
the country or tbat It may gain jurisdiction
through Its process Independently of the law of
rendition Tills extraterritorial Jurisdic
tion Is claimed on the grounds that by
the law of 1801 under which the District
of Columbia was ceded to the United State
for the Durpo > eof a national capital the lall
then In force In the State of Maryland were to
be enforced in the District and as the common
law was operation In Maryland at that time
It is claimed that llhsl uttered In this District of
Columbia becomes an offence against tho United
States In previous discussions of this question
Y have shown that Judge Dillon practically
denied this view of tbe question but Mr Bart
lett ROCS further and establishes by the report of
I committee of the Senate when the law of 1874
was under consideration and by the uniform
decisions of the Supreme Court that there Is I
absolutely no foundation for such n contention
and that the crime of libel If committed by Mr
Dana was committed In the State of New York
and could not therefore come within the juris
diction of this local court having no connection
with tie judicial system of the United State
and having no more jurisdiction than would
belong to the Supreme Court of any of the
States
In fact Mr llartlett In an elaborate discus
sion citing authorities which cannot fall to Im
press the Court hold with this newspaper that
I Mr Dana has committed any crime against
the United States the act a committed In thn
elty of New York where Mr Dana resided and
where be actually wrote nnd composed and pub
lished the article complained of and where
artle Ind any
criminal proceeding against him must be Instituted
toted and tried whtlo if It a simply a crime
against the District of Columbia to which It
It confined by the specifications contained In the
Indictment jurisdiction can be gained only by
rendition and the court have consistently held
that an actual personal presence In the place
where the crime II I alleged to have been com
mitted Is I necessary to warrant the invernorln
surrendering the person charged with crime

To THE KniTon or TIIKSUN Sir Ills curi
ous to reflect upon the simple way in which the
muddle of our local affairs could find effective
Adjustment I the discordant Uepubllcans and
tho Intolerant reformers should suspend their
conflicts and pride of conquest for a brief
period and actuated by I sincere desire to
make the best of the situation unite In an effort
for the common good how readily everything
would adjust Itself I The persistent and undevl
atlng onslaught which Mayor Strong Is making
against every Itepubllcan not satisfactory to the
Union League Inevitably leads reflecting men
on nil sides to the belief that ho II I
actuated by a definitely arranged party
purpose Hint ho hues a kitchen cabinet
at which bin appointments and policy
are discussed all decided II I becoming anmttor
of universal understanding Deserved or nndr
ervrd the opinion Is that he Is I playing the rule
of local politician In the narrowest personal
sense with the power conferred by the people
for other ends I these t thing are no It seems
Inevitable that the only profitable result will be 1
the disruption of the Republican party In thIs
Slate and the fight continuing to tho bitter end
the sinaMi of the reform movement In a final
nnd mere pnrtv squabble I Is I no objection to
Mayor Stiong that ho should be a politician In a
broad and general regard for his party some of
our brut men have been thnt fort of politician
none more so than Andrew Jackson ali Abra
ham Lincoln twonf the biggest men our country
has produced They believed that there should Ixi
rotation In office antI that those who had ac
complished the party I > victory being equally ca
pable were better entitled to the office than
the enemy who hod been I overthrown and who
had had their share When we consider the
question soberly anti take Into account nil that
miters Into party organization on which the
success of principles depend we cannot fall to
see how much routs on encouraging motive to
the men who do aln work anti the extent to
which they are to be recognized its Victors when
the battle Is over
Now to Illustrate our position In the light
with which we would haelt regarded let tie
II
Imagine Mayor Mrong forgetting his uncom
prlinp personal hostilities and 1arkhurst
smoothing the generally wrinkled front of his
warlike brow holding n luutiull with 1latt
who cannot bn disparaged out of sight Superin
tendent liyrnos and representative men generally
rprelentts
ally t determine by their joint effort what
could be done to promote the public welfare In
the 1ollc Department how quickly and com
pletely the work could be done I have never
been able to see the wisdom of setting aside the
special education experience atne ability of
Superintendent lljrnes In tbe reorganlratlon
He has qualifications for police administration
unequalled for their extent and value
The chief objection to Mr liyrnes Is that Park
hunt does not like him but wants n man of his
own Thne might be advantage In having a
halnl 1
Chief of 1ollce owing allegiance t Iarkburst
anti his private society but we ore Inclined to
believe that the community would urefer to
have that Important otllctal with his Immense
Influence as their Impartial representative Is
It not rlenr however that If that dominating
dominatnG
Indomitable fighting parson would give his con
sent Mr Kyrnes would be Installed under
the new order of things with the general con
Cl
lent and approval Cannot 1arkhurst b In
duced to allow the people to have their
way In this matter which concerns them
BO essentially How much greater would be
tbe Indebtedness to our versatile dictator If be
would conperato for tho public good instead of
disintegrating and demoralizing every effert be
cause ho cannot have his own special peculiar
and personal way and sway No one denle that
Superintendent Byrne thoroughly comprehends
the whole question at Usue and knows how to
bring about a complete reorganization and re
form of the Police Department In all Its part
al It
The only doubt hM been as to his sincerity
But he has every motive t take advan
tage of the opportunity If It should be pre
xenttxl t him and to turn 1 t the best account
for the public benefit He Is surrounded
by nil the conditions that make that conclusion
Imperative He Is In prosperous circumstances
he is I In the maturity of his life and every con
sideration would naturally prompt him to make
a name for himself at till crisis of liii career
If he should fall the remedy would be close at
hand Is I not worth the trial
The police government of this city should rest
as far as possible on publicconsentand approval
With the dullcMe and allncrvalltnK character
its Influence It should not be used for partisan
end especially If It Is to continue to supervise
the elections and appoint the Judge who
are to receive and count the ballots Both
the great parties should obviously on guard
at this post equally represented as a guarantee
against abuse and to preserve the public yeah
dence There would seem to be no other way
One man or one party should not be clothed with
the control upon which the most Important and
sensitive Intel est and rlgbtu of a free people
depend It would seem Indispensable theie
fore that there should be e Board of Supervis
ing Cotumlsslonsrs fairly representing the two
parties of the best men that can be found to
assume the duty With the present Superb
tendent to do the work of reorganization In co
operation with a Hoard of the character indi
cated everything would go on capably and
efficiently If therefor there Is not some deep
laid plot for party management with the view
to future ascendancy which should not be a
part of the reform movement and for which the
Mayoralty should not bo used why should not
Major Strong nit dawn magnanimously with
the leaders of his party on both sides not those
of the small end of It and endeavor cooperate
for the general welfare He would find his
great work much easier and In the end bo
would command the support and confidence of
the whol community Instead of being the
played upon Instrument of discord for a set of
silkstocking parlor politicians who will discard
him as soon u his unpopularity becomes patent
