GOVERNOR DIX, MAYOR GAYNOR
AND SOME OTHERS.
Thirteen days ago, on Angus; 23, lha
Mayor of the city of Near ?brk In a
formal published letter charged that the
State Civil Service Commission was
abusing its power and was falsa to its
trust. He declared that it was holding
up a resolution concerning an appoint?
ment in a city department "until the
"head of the department agrees to ap
"point a man selected by certain politl
"cians."
Now. this is a serious indictment.
which (iovernor Dix cannot afford to
ignore. It Is not idle gos?-ip or a cam?
paign argument ?.f political opponents.
It is th" solemn, deliberate assertion of
a high public official, I Democrat, a
friend and advisor of the governor, who.
indeed, takes credit to bimself as hi\ log
been instrumental in bringing about the
nomination of Mr, Dix for the Rxecu
tire ofhVe. When Mayor Oaynor tin.?
turns upon Governor Dix's civil service
commtssi??ners and chargea them with
entering into a patronage intrigue In flat
violation of their sworn duty be raises
an Issue which vitally ronceras the
reputation of the Governor and Mayor
n> well sa that of OomnriaBjtotSSrs Kraft
and Burton, the responsible Democratic
majority of the commission. Vet tint
teen days have passed and so Far as
the public has seen no action has been
taken by the commissioners or tha
Governor whom they represent to dear
them of this grave cbari:
Either the commissioners have com
mltted a serions offence, rendering them
unworthy of trust as upholders and ad?
ministrators of the merit system, or
Mayor Gaynor bas outrageously alan?
dated them. Then? ?an be no middle
gmnnd. Mayor Gaynor has ssjd too
much or too little. Having made the
?general and sweeping charge, ha owes
?it t?. them, to the Governor and to the
public t?> gi'c the specific detalla of
?their alleged Offending Hi OSS, OU
the one hand, no right to use his great
Iprestige to injure their reputation with
lout clearly showing their wrongdoing
| He bas. on the other band, no right tr>
I be content with b mere pas Ins com
?plaint of official conduct which if cor
' rectly described I : him i alia for the
summary removal of the eommissionei
The commissioners on tbeii pari bave do
? riirlit to sit silenr under this Ittdlctmenl
They owe it t<< their earn honor and to
put.lt.? confidence In the In egrity of the
merit system which they have . ?.
to maintain to clear themselves from
Ihe Mayor's charge and force from him

tratlon of the dril service law over to
more worthy hands.

entirely convinced of the righteousness
?f hi< theories and unwilling to .-.i?,-?io
them a lot or little under th.? pressure
of expediency. He belonged bj tradl
lion to the ante-bellum nebool ol South?
era political economists, Interested chief
ly, If not exclusively, In bringing about
ii fiee exchange of the Boutb'i agrlcull
ural staples for the manufs hired prod?
ncti of Europe. He was ? free trader
at heart and warred against nil out

duties do ihe practical work of protec
tiou. ii?- accepted the doctrine of fres
raw materials not only a?- sound In Itself
but as ?i useful device for forcing down
the duties on the manufactured sit?eles
tato which those rsm materials entered.
it Colonel Mills had I.n the leader

possible to conceive of bis drawing up ?
wool Khedule containing i tax of 20 per
cent <?n raw wool and then dickering In

enibodled In ? Mouse hill bis own con?

t.i the Legislature and the obvious po?
