Out ba nut oa Mr. George O. Jones accomplished this work with neatness, though not with dispatch. Then he nominated himself for Governor on a platform demanding tho de monetization of gold and silver and tho issue of $50 in greenbacks for every inhabitant of the land. A janitor, who threatened to turn off as much of tho gas as he could control, was appeased with three dollars of money not based on the fiat or fool principle underlying the convention.

The janitor is becoming an important person in politics. Mr. George O. Jones will not be elected Governor, but he has thrown those who think he did not know how to maintain his hold on an organization. General Butlor made the discovery last yeor that Mr.

George O. Jones known a thing or two in extremely practical politics. Consistent Prohibitionists. The Prohibitionists have held a State convention in Syracuse. They adhere to a principle and are equally opposed to both parties, though for different reasons.

They are opposed to the Democracy becauso the Democracy are opposed to Prohibition. Thoy are opposed to the Republicans because the Republicans are for Prohibition, where it will bring them votes, neutral concerning it where that will bring them votes, and against it where that will bring them votes. The word which expresses the Democratic attitude toward Prohibition is hostility. The word which expresses the Republican attitude toward Prohibition is hypocrisy. In these circumstances, the Prohibitionists propose to be logical.

They have announced principles and candidates of their own. They do right from their standpoint. Thoy are sincere, brave and respectworthy. The Democrats are against them. Democracy is as a principle anti Prohibition.

True Democrats' have" never pretended any thing olse. If any ono tells the Prohibitionists othe rwise the explanation is that he lies. There should be no mistake about that. On the contrary, the Prohibitionists have full reason simply to despise the Ropublicau party. That party talks tomporancointhe country and gets drunk, so to speak, in the cities.

It promised to support in tho Legislature tho submission of a Prohibition amendment to the people. It made the promise intending to violate it, and it did violate it. Yot it secured from the Prohibitionists tho aid that party promised to elect Republican legislators. In the cities the Republicans, their officeholders being their chosen representatives and typical exponents, do not hesitate to go into treaty with the liquor intorost for tho sake of the power it can oolloctively wield in politics. This double dealing has not marked Republicanism in New York alone.

It marked that party in Ohio, too. There tho liquor dealer and the Prohibitionists both found out the Republican trickery, and that party went to the wall. Prohibitionists know now what an adherence to principle costs them. It costs them abuso and persecution without a parallel in politics from Republicanism. Their candidate for President, ex Governor St.

John, has been blackguardod and lied about without measure by men who confess that their anger rests on their failure to buy him. Tho leadership and control of Republicanism have been given to these self avowed, baffled corruption ists in Ohio, and thoy mean to have it in New York. The Prohibitionists do not seem to be made of the stuff which gets scared, and, having the courage of their convictions, they do right to show it. Germany' Mild Policy Toward Spain. The absurd demonstrations in Spain that have grown out of the formal occupancy of the Caroline Islands by Germany havo been imitated in Cuba.

Tho merchants of Havona, with far more zeal than discretion, have announced thoir willingness to contribute $500 000 to the construction of a war vessel in which, presumably, they are to sail up the Spree and capture Berlin. Prance, of course, has caught the anti German fever, and in the delirium which this disorder seems to produce in Frenchmen has committed her customary indiscretions. Meantime the calm indifference oxhibited by Germany to all this uproar must have had a soothing effect upon the Spaniards. The graceful concession which Bismarck has made in withdrawing the Gorman forces and leaving the question to be settled by arbitration is in such marked contrast with the truculent tone of his dealings with first class European Powers, that his anxiety to steady King Alfonso on his throne is manifest to everybody. The conciliatory letter written by Emperor William is another and yet more diroot concession to popular feeling.

Of course nothing more senseless than the talk of war with Germany on tho part of Spain could be uttered even in France, and tho pompous bellicosity of the Spanish people is yet more humorous than the pigmy ferocity of the Frenchmen who still talk about thoir war of revenge as the English Jacobites used to drink to the restoration of tho Stuarts long after the House of Hanover had effected a lodgment on the throne. Bismarck's extraordinary forboarance ond tho dovo like cooing of his diplomacy are not by any means impenetrable mysteries. Spain may always be a usoful ally against France, and humiliated and cowed as that once formidable Power still is she has vitality enough left to be the source of Germany's chief concern. Moreovor, while there is very little prospoct of tho establishment of a republic in Spain, it is quite possible to dethrone the Bourbons and replace them with a dynastic democracy which is likely to bring Spain into closer relations with the West of Europe and more particularly with Franco herself. This certainly would not accord with the Gorman programme.

King Alfonso has already beon forced to play the part of a German agent in accepting an honorary command in tho army, to the great annoyance of the Fronch people. He is retained on the throne of Spain in that capacity now. Why should there be any surprise in London politioal circles beoause Mr. Hendricks delivered a speech in favor of home rule for Ireland He is not a member of the Administration, and a Vice President of tho United States does not relinquish any of his rights as a private citizen. Moreover, all Americans believe in the principle of home rule.

Mr. Vanderbilt is again accused of using profane language. A reporter of the Pittsburg Dispateh attributes to him the expression, "The whole thing is a lie." It is pitiful to hear a young man swear it is a thousand times moro pitiful to hear an old man swear. The young mau may soo his error in time to reform, but it is hard to teach an old dog new tricks. Tho attention of the managers of Homo Missions is respectfully directed to Mr.

Vanderbilt. The Rockland County Democratic Convention elected delegates to the Saratoga Convention on Wednesday favorable to the nomination of Governor Hill. So far all the delegates chosen in the State havo tho same preference. Nearly 100 of the 384 members of the State Convention have been elected. In every instance also President Cleveland's Administration has been explicitly indorsed.

That the Jofferspnion Domocrats of Water town should appreciate the virtues of that gracious political personality the Hon. Ros woll Pettibone Flower is creditable to them and to him. If Mr. Jefferson were living he would be among tho first to acknowledge the relief which such a presence affords from the serious study of philosophy or the severe duties of statesmanship. Nothing would do more to encourage practical reformers and give greater promise of an actual improvement of the publio service than the extension by the President of an indefinite leave of absence to the distinguished members of the Eatonian trinity at Washington.

They are truly good men who illustrate the difficulty of fitting square pegs into round holes. Contemporary Humor. An engineer on a Southern railroad had run for twelve years without being able to tell a red light from a white one. They think he must havo had a guardian angel strapped to his back. Free Press.

The assertion that cholera may be brought over here in Spanish raisins needn't affect the guests at any hotel. The raisins put on with dessert came from the nearest stone yard. Free Press. Learn your business thoroughly," says a philosopher. The trouble is that people are so much occupied with the business of other people thatthoy haven't time.

Ifew York Graphic. Choice of the Republican Supervisors for Surrogate. Result of the Caucus Held Last Night. Eight Candidates Presented and a Selection Slade on the Sixth Ballot The Eflect on Baird's Candiduey for the Mayoralty. The third attempt of the Republican members of the Board of Supervisors to hold a caucus woe a success.

Twelve of the number camo together lost night at the club rooms of tho Stephen M. Qriswold Association, Fleet street, near Fulton, for the purpose of taking action In caucus In relation to tho Surrogate vacancy. It was after 9 o'clock before the following Supervisors woro all present: Willis, of tho First Ward; Wilkes, of tho Third Ward; BarnoB, of the Soventh Ward; Harold, of the Elovonth Ward; Hobby, of the Fiftoonth Ward; Wrlghtlngton, of tho Seventeenth Ward; Bonnott, of tho Ninoteonth Ward; Bennom, of theTwontieth Ward; Boasloy, of the Twenty first Ward; Garrison, of the Twenty third Ward; Morrison, of tho Twenty fonrth Ward, and Stylos, of the Twonty flf th Ward. Tho Republican Supervisors who did not attend woro: Larkln, of the Fourth Ward; Adamson, of the Thirteenth Ward; Baker, of tho Twenty second Word; Ryder, of Flatlands, Wolfort of New Lots, and Mayor Low. The meeting was held in private.

Supervisor Willis was made chairman, and Supervisor Wilkos flocretary. After a long and somewhat exciting dobate, In which certain members questioned tho propriety of certain other members In calling the caucus, it wos decided to take an Informal ballot, each Supervisor voting for his own candidate. Boforo this was done, however, a resolution wns voted down pledging all the members to stand by the action of the caucus. The following candidates woro named on tho first ballot: General Catlln, Alfred E. Mudgo, P.

W. Os trander, Henry Phillips, Horoco E. Gravos, Samuol T. Maddox ond John B. Groen.

On the first informal ballot tho vote stood as follows: Mudge, Oatrander, Phillips.l; Graves, Maddox, Oreon, 1. There was no means of knowing how each momber voted, as thoy wroto the names of their candidates on slips of paper, which they deposited with the toiler. It Is thought, however, that Willis, Bonuom anil Bennett voted for Catlln; Boasloy for Mudge; Barnes for Oatrander; Harold for Phillips; Stylos, Garrison and Morrison for Graves; Wrightlngton and Hobby for Maddox, and Wilkos for Green. On the socond ballot tho Gravos mon voted for Catlin ond Beosloy dropped Mudgo and named Alderman Dlmon. Supervisor Willis, boforo tho caucus, had urged Dimon as can'lidA'o for socond cholco of tlio Cntlin men.

On tho third ballot Wilkes, Bonnem, Ilennott, and Willis votod for Catlln, Barnes and Boanley for Dimon nnd tho other six mombors for Maddox. It became evidont that Catlin was practically out of tho race. Tho General, against tho wishes of his friends, was prosout in an adjoining room, awaiting tho result Ho drovo up in a coupo oarly in tho evonlng for the purpose of seeing Supervisors Boasloy and Barnes, whom he had tried to And all day, but had been unsuccessful. After the third ballot Supervisor Willis Informed him that his chances wero hopeloss and tho Geuoral Immediately took his departure. On tho fourth ballot Catlln had 4 votes, Ostrander 2, Maddox 9 and Dimon 1.

On the fifth ballot, which waa tho lost of tho Informal ballots, the vote stood Catlin 3, Ostrandor 3 and Maddox 6. Supervisor Willis at this point called tho attention of the members to the fact that the sentiment of tlio caucus pointed strongly toward tho selection, upon tho formal ballot, of tho candidate from tho Eastern District. He askod his colloagues to considor woll their vote. He said there were only twelve of the Republican membors of the Board present and it would roquire sixteen voto3 to oloct a candidate. Judging from tho way tho mombers of the majority of tho Board ha'd votod horotoforo on party questions, he said It was by no means certain that tho necossary number of votes could bo obtained.

Ho added that thero wero two unknown quantities to bo considerod. Mayor Low and Suporvieor Kyder, and a mau should bo namod who would havo thoir support Mr. Willis said that he had nothing against Mr. Maddox and knew him to bo a good Republican, but no harm would come of dolay and opportunity would thou bo givon to consult the absonteoa. The speaker moved to tako an adjournment until this ovoning.

Suporvisor Harold raised tho objection to this motion that It would bo impossible to get a larger attondanco at another mooting. To tost the matter a motion was made pledging tho mombera to attend a future caucus, which was only carriod by aoven votes in tlio affirmative. Supervisor Willis' motion to adjourn was votod duwn. Just boforo tho taking of the formal ballot a member suggested that if anyone present felt that he would not bo willing to support tho candidate of tho caucus to make the fact known. Supervisor Boasloy in a brief speech said that he would not umlor any circumstances voto for Gonoral Catlin.

Suporvieor Barnes also mado the aamo statement Tho last formal ballot rosulted as oUowa Catlin a Gstr.mder 3 7 Mr. Maddox was declared tho choice of the caucus. Willis and Bonnem voted for Catlin, Barnes, Beas loy and Wilkes for Ostrander, and tho otltor members for Maddox. The mooting then adjourned. The four mombors of tho Board who wore absent last night who It is thought will sustain tho action of tho caucus aro Supervisors Larkln, Adamson, Wolfert and Baker.

These gentlemen, with all who were present last night, wUl give the required 16 votes. Thore la some doubt whother Mr. Boasloy will support Maddox. The friends of A. D.

Balrd regard the selection of Maddox as unfavorable to tho candidacy of tho ox Alderman for the Mayoralty. Baird llvoa in the Nineteenth Ward, and Maddox in the Fourteenth Ward, and tho argument 1b that tho Republicans cannot afford to take men from the Eastern District for two such important offices. It was thought by some last night that Mr. Maddox would be induced to withdraw from the Surrogate contest in ordor to place no obstacles In the way of Mr. Baird's candidacy.

THE GERMAN CATHOLICS. Close of tbe National Convention Officers IHected Tho AddreBHC. On tho return of the delegates of the Gorman Catholic Convention to Germanla Hall at 8 o'clock yesterday afternoon, the call of the roll was dispensed with and a modified roport of tho Committee on Printing was rccolvod recommending that the minutes of the convention bo printed and distributed by December 1, and that aU membors should unite in sustaining tho Cathollo press of tho country The roport was adopted. Tho roport of tho Widow and Orphans' Fond Society showed to their credit $20,000. A committee from tho Irish Benevolent Union, now in session in the Western District, consisting of M.

J. Fink, Father Barry, of Philadelphia, and J. J. Groavog, of Ohio, woro recoivod amid much applause. Mr.

Fink said: Our nnlon, though younger in years than youfs, Is nevertheless united with you In the same good work. We numbor 16,000. Among us are many Germans. I myself though a Gorman, am also descended from an Irish family through my father In law, loughter, but we aro not so much Germans and Irish as we are Catholics. We aro actuated by tho samo motivos havo the same ends In view.

It is tho wish of our organization that the two bodies should bo brought Into closer communion; that in our work wo should bo all brothers. It Is tho desire of the IriBh Benevolent Union that I should extend to you it3 best wishes and the hope that good fellowship and brotherly lovo shall exist betweon us. CApplauso, Fathor Barry said: I extend to you the best wishes of tho Irish Benevolent Union. In its name I congratulate you upon tho success of your work. May God's blessing bo with you.

We are horo engaged in the same work. You represent tho Germans; we the Irish, but all aro Catholics. We aro here to porpotuate the good will already established by tho church. We are horo to assert crar rights to securo equal Justice for tho 50,000 Catholics we represent. God speed you.

We extend to you a helping hand for the samo objects and with tho aamo ends In vlow that now engage yonr attention Mr. J. J. Greaves sold Let us not be Gemmnsor Irishmen so much as wo aro Catholics. Wo ask no favors from this country, but we demand equal and exact Justice from all.

We do not wish to becomo aggressive, bnt if we aro forced to assume tbe offensive, let us remember tho old Kentucky maxim "United we stand, divided we falL" Lot those conventions be the foundation stono of a unity which no storm or odversity can ovor overthrow. Wo aro all of ono household and of one faith. We aro citizens of tho United States, and this la socond only to our Catholicity. President Spauniiorst thanked the visiting delegation, and promisod that with members of tho German Convention he would visit the Irish Benevolent Union this morning before ho wont to Coney Island. Tho Committee on Resolutions reported in favor of the proposition for the creation of employment bureaus by the various societies of tho central association, nnd recommended that the Executive Committee devise a plan by which such bureaus can be established.

Tho coinmitteo disapproved of the proposition to disqualify a member for representing a society to Uich ho does not belong. The views of the committee woro sustained and tho roport adopted. An amendment to the constitution was adopted giving power to the Executive Committee to suspend a society ascertained to be anti Catholic or dlsobediont to the rulings of the oentral association; the committee to roport regarding such society to tho next ensuing convention. Delegate F. J.

Brlnkmann, of Terre Haute, offered a resolution that no delegate shall represent a society which does not belong to the place where he resides. Heretofore the right to do so has passed unquestioned. The resolution was defeated. Discussion arising as to who should be ohoson a committee to visit tho Irish Benevolent Union, some one suggested delegate Paul Gloa, of Detroit aa tho best representative Irish Dutchman In tho society, and therefore the right man.

Its value as an Advertising: medium Is therefore apparent Am Invitation that Will Not he Accepted. Bafore the resolution adopted by the Republican General Committee on Tuesday night, opening the doors for the Mugwumps to return to the party, oan produce any practical results some very plain questions 'will have to be answered. If the Mugwump regrets what he did last year, and is now in a penitent mood if he chooses to figure either os ft prodigal or as a vain and foolish youth led away from the paths of virtue by the witching arts of the Democracy, the course is clear enough. No more is required in that event than that he 6hall confess his weakness and evil behavior," and put himself meekly tinder the tutelage of the brethren who remained in what the campaign orators call the homostead. But should he, which, to say the least, is not improbable, defend his course, decline to be forgiven for what ho deems worthy of all honor, and insist Hint the men who supported Blaine, not they who opposed him, ought to abase themselves, the throwing open of the party door will accomplish little.

That difficulty is likely to arise in this direction wo deem probable, first, because the average Mugwump is a person of very positive character, and, second, beoauso the party needs him a good deal more than he needs the party. Take Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, George "William Curtis and Carl Schurz as tjrpes. These gentlemen, it must be allowed, are not likely oither to plead tho Baby act or underrate there own importance. When any politician talks to them about olive branches, open doors, buried hatchets, pipes of poace and all the other hack metaphors of Stump oratory, they will be pretty sure to do mantl a statement in much less flowery language of what is meant.

They will want to know whether it is proposed that they are to figure as subjects of mercy, or whether the regulars whom they denounced mean to as Bumo that attitude, or, as a third possibility, whether it is proposed to bury the past altogether and go forward to new work on a new basis. The more diplomatic of the party leaders will doubtless answer that the third suggestion is the one to bo acted upon. They will propose a complete burial of the late unpleasantness, in which Blaino and anti Blaine shall alike disappear, and that the reunion shall bo upon the basis of what they can agree to support in common as Republicans. But evou this vill necessitate further explanation. The Mugwump will want a statement in plain English of what is meant by the term common Republicanism and wherein it differs from tho Democracy of President Cleveland.

Why the politician should desire reunion is clear enough. Ho wants office and is in favor of anything likoly to secure it for him. But the Mugwump does not want office, ho is interested in the promotion of certain principles, and unless it can be shown that the Republican party is moro favorable to them than the Democracy he will support the latter. This, wo take it, is tho rock upon which the political bark will go to pieces. Tho politicians can assign no roason why any Republican who supported Cleveland should not still uphold him and glory in the work.

There is not, we are confident, one influential Independent Republican in the country who will say that ho has been disappointed in the Cleveland Administration. We do not, of course, mean that evory little transaction has pleased him. We refer to the general course of the Administration. Turning from what the more astute party managors will say to further harmony, we have the loss discreet members of the organisation to consider and unlesB human nature has undergone a great change of late thoir talk will make the serious efforts of the more cool headed men ridiculous. As a specimen of the style in which the rank and file are likely to plead for harmony, wo quote tho following gem from the editorial columns of our esteemed contemporary the Brooklyn 'I imes Of course the Hepublieana of Klugs County, in holding out this olive bnineli to those who went out of tho party llnea last year, have no apology to ollor for supporting the nominations mado at I'hieago by amajorityof tho Kepublicans of tho I'nitou States for tho chief onicos in tlio gift of the people.

We honor James U. Blaino to day, aa wo did last year, B3 ranking among the first and ablest of Hopubliu ons in the nation. Tho betrayal of him will not Boon bo forgotten. The leading conspiratora who engineered the bolt arts without oxcueo. They are not forgotten and will not soon be forgiven try the loyal Kepublicans of the country.

It will not, wo feel confident, require a very large room to hold tho Kings County Mugwumps who go back to the homestead in response to an invitation of this kind. With some such form of welcome as this plastered over the open door the Mugwumps will, to a moral certainty, stay outside. Tile Attempt'to Grab the Surroffatefthip. It is safe to say that no other local body of men would make such an exhibition of themselves as the Board of Supervisors have made in their indecent haste to seize as partisan plunder the office of Surrogate and that none other, even in more decorous circumstances, would mako such a nomination for the placo as was made by a caucus of members yesterday. We do not suppose that Mr.

Samuel T. Maddoi, upon whom the choice foil, himself Buspects thathe is fit for tho position. Certainly nobody else entertains so wild a fancy. The Burrogateship is of groat and growing importance. For the proper discharge of its fluties, ability, learning and experience are required.

Questions involving large interests, and sometimes as delicate and difficult as any coming before the courts, have to be decided. A thoroughly equipped lawyer, of recognized rank at the bar, is needed for the office. Mr. Maddox would probably be surprised if anybody should employ him to argue a complicated case before the Surrogate. He is intelligent enough to be keonly conscious of the absurdity of calling upon him to determine such cases from the bench.

Tho Eagle has no unkindly feeling toward Mr. Maddox. He is man whom his associates like and he appears to bo wearing with some success the political paternal mantle which foil upon his shoulders. But the Eagle tells him what he knows already when it says that neither the bar, nor litigants nor the public would dream of him for a moment as Judge Bergen's Buocessor. Yet it is entirely characteristic of the Supervisors' indifference to the popular interest that, having resolved upon a nomination, they should make one obviously, scandalously, ludicrously unfit.

It is perhaps worse that thoy should at this time mako haste to nominate at nil. Tho very least that can be said is that their authority to fill tho vacancy is doubtful. Their right course would be to wait until tho question has been thoroughly considered and a definite conclusion on the legal aspocts of the case has been reached; and then, if they should appear to have tho power, proceed to act. The Surrogate snip is a dignified office, and everything relating to it should be done with dignity, in order. It )b a judicial office, and for that reason should be especially free from baser partisan influences.

Yet the Supervisors approach the appointment as they might the employment of a person to scrub the Court House. And everybody says this is perfectly characteristic of the present Board. We have no doubt that tho Governor has power to fill tho vacancy, but it would bo surprising and mortifying if he were to do so in an unseemly faBhion. He has too much self respect to do anything of the kind. Ho will move in a deliberate manner and will eatisfy himself as to tho question of legal authority and questions of personal fitness before he namos anybody.

Tho Supervisors know this, and they hasten to forestall his action. They doubtless think that if they can get thoir man in ho will be safe, trusting that the regularly appointed officer may regard it aB hardly worth while, for the sake of a four months' term, to incur the trouble and expense of making a contest for tho place. Reputable Republicans should, ask themselves whethor they are willing that this scandalous performance of tho Supervisors shall go out as a specimen of what may bo expected Of their party if it shall an enlarged lease of power. The public certainly will in Cleveland, September 10. Two weeks ago the City Council passed a resolution providing for tbo appointing a committee to settle If possible the difficulty existing between the 8,500 strikers and tho Cleveland Rolling Mill Company.

To day a conference was held at the City HolL Prosldent McBrido, of the Board of, Alder mon, President Hodge, of the Board of Councilmen, William Chlsholm, president of the Rolling Mill Company and Ave strikers were present The conference was secrot and long, butjunsatisfactory. Tho strikers said they wanted wages equal those paid generally throughout the country. Mr. Chlsholm declined to back down from the ten per cent, reduction which wos the cause of the strike. The difficulty Is no nearer a solution than It was months ago.

Utica Obetrver Every Republican paper continues to ask, what will be the issue? It depends upon the candidate, but from tho present appearance an issue of crisp greenbacks from the candidate's bank is the most likely one. A Ibany Time Tho South proved its pluck in the field; it has proved its pluck in defeat, and It is now proving its pluck In accepting tho progressive Industry that is tho fountain of prosperity in overy notion ond clime. Philadelphia Timet If General Butler maintains before tho Supromo Court the opinion he expresses to an intorvlowor, uamoly, that tho Civil Service law Is unconstitutional, he will not die unwept, unhonored and unsung. Not he.

Utica Observer This appears to be a year when the Democrats are tackling live Issues. The result of the scrimmage last November has amazingly developed the courage of opinion. Philadelphia Record Congressman Long politely but firmly tolls Mr. Blaine that tho party wonts nothing of him in 1888 or, to put It in our Johns Inimitable style "I do not think that he will again' be candidate or that It is dosirablo that he should be, and in that opinion I doubt not that he agrees." Two to one the sweet honey tonguod orator of Sweot Hlngham down the bay" will stump tho State in 1888, proclaiming his belief that there never was a moment after the election of 1884 when there was anything so desirable as tho nomination of Mr. Blaino In 1883.

Boston Globe When Senator John Sherman made hU last bloody shirt harangue he was notawaro of the latest and most atrocious Southern outrages. It is estimated that the vnlne of this year's cotton crop will exceed $300,000,000, of which $200,000,000 will go to the credit of foreign exchange. The rice, sugar and tobacco crops wUl be.the largest and most valuable ever known In the history of the South, while wheat, corn and other cereals will be abundant at the lowest prices. In tho absence of othor outrages, Senator Sherman will doubtless be able to give these due consideration in his next speech. Philadelphia Record Prohibition has been overwhelmingly defeated in McLonnon County, Texas, but tho war is still going on and the seat of conflict wiU now be transferred to other counties.

Navarro County will be tho next to speak on the subject, and as it Is the home of Congressman Mills the result wlU bo looked for with Interest. There is one thing to be said in favor of the Texas Domocrats and that is that thoy aro not trying to dodge the issue. Senator Coko and Congressman Mills led tho assault upon Prohibition in McLennan and they will lead again in Navarro. Equal honesty cannot be credited to leaders of both parlies In other States. But of course this doesn't refer to Judge Foraker.

Or, has the committee since Mr. Woodruff, on its behalf, gave oxprossion to the foregoing views, changed its intentions and gone off on a now line of action? Needed Iloforins lit the Penitentiary. Tho annual report of Warden Green, of the Kings County Penitentiary, published in the Eagle last evening, is an unusually interesting and suggestive document.

It is beyond question that tho management of the Penitentiary has been in every way admirable for some years back, and tho intelligence and good faith of the Warden are so universally conceded that whatever imperfections are referred to in tho roport are pretty sure to deserve attention. Several of these are pointed out, together with remedies that common sense approves at once. Tho aim of the present administration of the Penitentiary has been consistently to mako the institution self supporting without applying to tho convicts the inhuman pressure which has disgraced moro than one of our state prisons, for the sole purpose of swolling the profits of tho labor contractors. A surplus of receipts over expenditures has been reported annually, and this year amounts to a little over $5,000, or some $2,000 less than last year's figures. Despite this falling off it is apparent that the severest economy has been practiced, for the number of nonproductive convicts who have been maintained in idleness during tho year has been greater than at any other time.

A steady averago of 300 prisoners, incapacitated by age, infirmity and short sentences, has beon supported by the earnings of their industrious fellows, in view of which fact tho slight reduction of tho surplus is testimony to tho wisdom with which the institution has been governed. But while unquestionably reflects credit on the Wardon it ia not a condition which the taxpayers incline to favor. The presence of vagrants, drunkards and decrepit persona in the Penitentiary is an anomaly. Three other institutions in Kings County are especially provided to meet the cases of the idlers in tho Penitentiary. With soverol hundred empty cells in the jail it is folly to speak mildly of the matter to clog the machinery of the Penitentiary with short term prisoners who cannot be put to work.

They ought to be confined in the jail. The aged and decrepit have no business in the Penitentiary. They ought to be in the Almshouse, which is maintained by the county for the disposition of just suoh eases. Tho reference to the habitual drunkards in the body of the report is amplifiod in that of the physician. Tho facts as represented appear to be sufficiently worthy of attention, by tho way, to render Dr.

Bartlott's diction superfluous, if not reprehensible. That the Penitentiary should be mado to bear the burden of housing and treating as many as ono hundred drunkards at a time, while the county is taxed for tho maintenance of an Inebriate Asylum at Bay Ridge, is so extraordinary an imposition as to render imperative the change of management which the Eagle has urged for the latter institution. Tho City of Brooklyn annually contributes something like $40, 000 to the Inebriates' Home, upon tho theory that its drunkards are there cared for and subjected to restraint ond reformatory treatment. It is taxed a socond time to provide for this class of ovil doer in the Penitentiary, upon what theory of equity we are at a loss to understand. It is within the power of the police justices thomselves to establish a reform by sending confirmed and vagrant drunkards to the Bay Ridge institution, until the next Legislature is appliod to for rolief.

Tho ring succeeded in killing legislation this year it behooves tho taxpaj'ers to see to it that this scandal is made an end of at an early stage of the next session. With those three classes of prisoners transferred to appropriate keeping, namely, the short term convicts, the infirm and vagrant drunkards, the Penitentiary will bo relieved to the benefit of the county. Another excellent suggestion is mado by tho Warden as to tho permanence of employment during good behavior of tho keepers. Tho arduous and responsible nature of thoir duties, ho claims, entitles them to immunity from the mutations of politics, and a knowledge that good service would be a guarantee of permanent employment would aid very materially in promoting loyalty and faithful discharge of duties. At present the keepers and others are entirely at tho mercy of politicians operating through the Commissioners.

The Warden's suggestion is a good ono; tho Eagle has better ono to mako. Inasmuch as the Warden is wholly responsible for the conduct of tho Penitentiary, and is in turn dependent upon the keepers in a very large measure, he ought to have absolute powor to hire and discharge them. Answer may be made that in case of delinquency ho can secure their discharge upon proper representation of facts but that does not meet the case. A keeper who is not in accord with the Warden may diBchavgo his duty to the letter of his obligation and at the same tiino wholly fail to support tho authorities. The duties of keepers ai not susceptible of definition.

A thousand contingencies aro imaginable in which, without r. diroct violation of rules, a keeper i fail to do his duty, and may embarrass tho Wnrden without giving him tangible cause of complaint. In such an institution as the Penitentiary absolute confidence must exist between the chief and his subordinates if discipline is to be maintained, and in order that this shall be possible tho Warden must have full liberty to employ men whom he pan trust fully and discharge those of whom he has the least suspicion of reluctance to carry out his policy. This change is one which the Legislature should be called upon to make. With these reforms, which cannot be ignored without leading to difficulties, the Penitentiary will continue to be the model penal institution of the country that it has beon for several years.
