VERY PROPER Decision RELATIVE To TYR
ERECTION OF POLITIcAL POLES ON THE PUBLIC
GROUNDS. Application having been recently
made to the Commissioner of Public BUILDINGS
Tor PERM Ssion TO erect Liberty pole near the
centre Of the open space in front of the Bank OF
Washington, that officer, we learn has declined
very properly We think, to grant such permission
as he finds his authority In this aspect will not Der
init him to do so. AS this request has come from
those connected with party opposed TO the Ad-
ministration, II may be attempted to have the
impression conveyed abroad that the Commits
sioner was actuated by political motives in rem
dering this decision But no one who is ac-
quainted with this gentlemanly and truly esti-
mable public officer, will for a moment suppose
That he could be Influenced by any such consid-
Grafton We know that such poles have here
tofore been raised on portions OF the public
grounds, but ii has been done in direct violation
OF law, and has never been conducive Of any
good result; but on the contrary has a tendency
10 create excitement, and often leads TO serious
disturbance. Now, however, as the attention Of
the Commissioner has been directed to the Lo,v
Oh The subject, he is determined to enforce it,
and hereafter TO refuse all such applications
come from what quarter they NAV.
The facts In this particular case as near as we
can ascertain them. are these A few DAYS since
letter making such request was handed to the
comm missioner whilst that gentleman was at din
ner,which prevented him from then giving il the
consideration TO which it was entitled As il was
mentioned in the letter that the assent of the
Mayor had been obtained, the Commissioner sent
word by the bearer Of the note that as far as he
was concerned he had no objection Since then,
however, HAT public functonary, having had an
opportunity of examining to the extent of his
authority over tie matter, found that so far from
DeinS authorized to grant such permission, il
would be his duty under law to remove the pole
II erected. He was therefore compelled. much
against his will, To recall his verbal acquescence
and to state In the communication announcing
TINS Tact TO the parties making the req ues that he
should refuse all similar applications, come from
what source they might; at the same time ex
pressing regret that sense Of duty would not
allow him to crafty his fellow-citizens in re-
quest which seemed so harmless and unimportant
We are sure the Commissioner will be upheld
by every citizen in this determination TO enforc.
the law, and thus prevent that which If IL lead tn
no serious consequence, az is often the case ia
always source Of annoyance to those residing in
the Immediate vicinity of such poles, by the
crowds Of idle and noisy persons who are likely
to congregate at such places.
