THE MAYOR AND THE GOVERNOR.

THE MAYOR AND THE GOVERNOR.
Gen. Dix wishes to hear argument
on the Mayors case before he makes
up his mind what to do with our ven
cradle Chief Magistrate. We have never
moderated the gravity of Mayor Havemeyer's
offenses. His appointments have been in
several instances an outrage upon decency and
an affront to the whole city. Elected as
Reformer, by party which pledged
itself especially to put an end to the jObbery
in offices and swindling at elections by which
the old Ring kept itself in power, he has re-
peated some of the transactions of the Tweed
regime with a frankness and audacity of which
even the Boss was entirely incapable. But
we must do Mayor Havemeyer the justice to
say that he did not take single step upon
this broad road to destruction until the Re
publican Legislature showed him the way.
Two of the municipal departments were turned
over to the politicians by statute, and 1t
was the understanding that what had thus
been begun at Albany should be completed
at the City Hall. Mr.. Havemeyer however,
was too obstinate and self-willed man to be
used in that way, and he employed his re-
naming power to counteract the schemes OF
the Republican managers who imagined they
owned him. Thus his bad appointments
began. If the Legislature had let him alone
it is probable that he would not have taken
to evil courses, and it is possible that he
might have made shrewd and useful maglS-
tIate.
Whether he has done enough to Justify his
removal is certainly an open question.
Undoubtedly he has abused the discretion
which the law repOses in him, and in the re-
appointment of the convicted Police Com
missioners there is strong ground for holding
that he violated the law. But If we are
satisfied with q President who dominates
Shepherd and removes Cluss, we can perhaps
afford to bear with Mayor who appoints
Charlick and Disbecker; and the alleged lille
gality of the reappOintments is hardly clear
enough to be made a sole cause for removal
without further inquiry. The power which the
charter gives the Governor i'll such cases
ought to be exercised with great reserve. 1t
is an arbitrary and dangerous authority in
tended for grave emergencies, and not Tor the
correction of small and ordinary evils. An
INSCRIPTIONS partisan Governor might use 1t
to promote party conspiracy and reverse the
verdict of the ballot-box; and hence Gen.
Dix cannot be too careful in establishing q
precedent.
His method of meeting the present difficulty
is therefore very shrewd one. Further ar
gument may throw more light upon the char
acter of the Mayors transactions, may estab-
lish the criminalty which is thus far only i'm
puted, or may set up a much better defense
than the extraordinary paper transmitted by
the Mayor to the Governor some time ago.
And before the inquiry closes it is easily
within the bounds of probability that the
Mayor may give way to some new freak which
will render the Governors duty too clear for
dispute.

abroad in the elegant and superior language
we have quoted, the solution. Says Roberts !:
"Wben every man in the South, be BIO red,
"back, or white, from the humblest dug-out
con the land to the stateliest mansion on the
seaside, shall be safe in his sentiments and his
"person, then and not till then,'-ah, how
beautiful the language; we never see the words
"then and not till then" without profound
conviction that the orator Is in deadly earnest
and liable any moment to rise into an atmos-
phere of ecstacy, in which he is willing TO Det
on his opinion" then and not till then mas
"tbe Republican party performed It's mission.
Not till every man, be it observed. from the
"humblest dug-out to the stateliest mansion
is "safe in his sentiments and person." will
these gentlemen set back their chairs. 1t may
not be in our day that "tbe humblest dug
"out on the land abe he red, black, or white"
(or, may we not add-yellow D will be "safe
Gin his sentiments and person:' but how con-
soling the thought, that till that day comes,
there will be no change in the Offices; that
"then and not till thenn-tO be accurate" mas
"the Republican party performed its mission"
Who the humblest dug-Outs on the land are
we have no means of knowing, but we ln1er
from the context that they may be either req,
black, or white, and that they are not now
safe 10 their sentiments and persons. Gen.
Roberts seems to have fallen into the error
quite natural to resident of Nebraska that
the stateliest mansions on the seaside ere built
on piles he has consequently placed them in
contrast with the humblest dug-Outs on the
land; but this is only a tnfling inaccuracy
hardly worth noticing when we consider the
importance of making them safe in their sentl-
ments and persons.
Let us rejoice then that Roberts has fixed
the time 50 accurately for the fulflmeut of
the mission of the Republican party. To
hungry and impatient Opposition drawing
near the tables and inquiring as they snuff
the fragrance of the feast, "Are you pretty
"nearly through ~ Gen. George II. Roberts
of Nebraska makes answer high, " Not till
" the humblest dug-out on the land is safe in
"his sentiments and person" We admire the
pertinency and precision of the answer, but
on behalf of those other people who seem so
anxious to sit down, we venture to ask Gen.
George II. Roberts of Nebraska how many
humble dug-outs remain to be heard from.

THE COMMISSIONERS or CHARITIES AND
CORRECTION.


The report of Mr.. Howe to the Commission
of Accounts makes very bad showing for the
Board of Charities and Correction. II seems
to be certain in the first place that the Board
has not attended to its duty, has never known
its financial condition, never been able to tell
what money 1t had in bank or what goods in
store, never attempted to balance its books and
never exercised any sort of official supervision
over the distribution of supplies to the insti-
tutiOns under its care. III wholesale robbery
has not gone on in the supply department, we
may thank the honesty of the employees, not
the vigilance of the Commissioners. AS the
accounts have not been kept with any APP
proach to regularity it is impossible to tell
whether few hundreds of thousands have
been stolen or not, and the Commissioners
apparently did not care.
But much more serious than these evidences
of carelessness and inelfcency are the indica-
tons that in at least one particular the Com
missioners have Systematically violated the
law, and attempted to conceal their oifense by
altering the books. The charter provides that
supplies amounting to more than $1,000 III
value shall always be purchased by contract
upon sealed bids No regard whatever has
been paid to this requirement, and where the
books showed payments of two, three, and
four thousand dollars on single purchase,
the entries have repeatedly been erased and
the purchase distributed over several
days, so as to represent a number of
fictitious transactions each of less than
81 900. This Justification of the record has
involved false storekeepers' receipts and du-
plicated bills. and in one instance seems to
have led to the cty's paying twice for the
same invoice of flour.
Mr.. Stern, when questioned about these
matters last night, said the bad bookkeep
"ingr occurred under the old Board, not the
present one. We do not understand exactly
what he means by "bad' bookkeeping, but
the Justification of the books occurred under
the present Board, and we should say that was
pretty bad.
