Il IL more than probable that during the coming
wiuter all the New York city commissions ABOUT
which tile democrats have been grumbllng 30 loudly
for several years past will be repealed. Some Of
the republican members will undoubtedly lend their
aid TO accomplish that end. The only one OF
the commissions that ought to BIO retained
Is the police commission, without which 10
would be scarcely safe for stranger to visit
the city at all. SO Tar as the residents OF the
city are concerned they ought TO be left to their
own devices. II they can stand the robberes thai
Will be porpetrated upon them by tae iinumerable
democratic rings which control all tneir purely
municipal affairs the people OF the rest OF the state
can AFFORD to let them do IL. We have not one word
TO say in behalf OF tho commissions. In o purely
republican organization. inc republicans who are
kept In onice through their agency never do any
eiclent service for the party, but are content 10
grow fat on their emoiumcnls and let their brethren
OF the rural districts perform all the WORK required
to keep control OF the Legislature. They have done
the thing once too often for their own good A
democratic Legislature VIII make snort work OF their
cosy places we suspect, and after that what they
get VIII have 10 be armed by more faithful service
than they have been In the haoii OF rendering.
