In the Fifteenth Senate District the Re-
publicans have renominated WEBSTER WAGNER.
He IL simply representative of the Central
Railroad In general, and of his palace drawing
room cars IN particular; and 1t was through the
influence Of these interests that he succeeded
In defeating his competitor in the nominating
convention. During the two years WAGNER has
been in the Senate his voice has never been
heard denouucing corruption or advocating re-
form; but he was always on hand and very
active when any railroad legislation was going
on. The Democrats and Liberals have nom
mated SAMUEL 4. BENEDICT. a young man OF
good education and line abilities. He repre-
senied Schenectady county in the Assembly
last winter, and took an active part In discuss
ing all measures OF Importance that came be-
fore the House. He was outspoken In support
OF Gov TILDESs reform measures from the
start, and in speech during the early stages Of
the a hit, when II was understood to be neither
a profitable nor a popular thing to do, no de-
nounced the Canal Ring as a band OF public
punderers, every one Of whom ought TO be In
State prison. With such a man as SAMUEL r..
BENEDICT in the Senate, the interests Of the
people OF Saratoga, Montgomery, Fulton, Ham
ilton, and Schenectady counties, and not those
OF the New York Central Railroad aud WAC
NER's drawiug-room cars, would be repre-
scented.

DELASo, when the latter was not present
TO act for himself and he never failed to
carry out the corrupt plans by which a
Ring of thieves controlled the policy and
decisions OF the Interior Department, re-
lating to land grants, Indian anuuities and
contracts, and valuable patent rights, to
say nothing of fraudulent pensions esti-
mated Mt several millions year.
TO dismiss DELANo and leave all his re-
tanners in Office, whom he appointed for
their peculiar fitness to serve him, and
whom he trained so that great depart
ment became n close family corporation,
would be mockery and a cheat. A new
Secretary, however well disposed aud free
from suspicion, would be rs wax in the
hands Of such experts in trckery and
corruption.
DELANo was driven out by the force of
public opinion. The President had no de-
sire to remove him, for he certified TO his
integrity IN the face of all the recent
exposures, and with full knowledge of
his direct completely i'm far worse transac-
lions than have yet been revealed. The
motive for giving him this certificate OF
character is well understood outside of

also be sent adrift.
without a change Of Administration,
real reform in its true sense Is not to bc
expected. Nothing will effect it short of
popular revolution, such rs was com
menced two years ago, and is still in actv-
ity. In times Of seeming prosperity, when
everybody is striving for his own interest,
abuses are tolerated, and often take root
deeply. Ii is only when adversely comes
that the public service is severely scruti-
nized, and public servants are held TO strict
account. The political revolution of 1910,
which brought the Wings into power. pro-
ceoded from such a cause; and in 1876 an
9th er and still more imposing one will

One Of the best evidences OF the sympa-
thy Of the people with Gov. TILpEN In his efforts
for reform, Is the way In which they are siaugh-
terng all who opposed HIM last winter. In the
Sen tte the chief apo.Ogist and special pleader
for the Canal Ring was Senator A. p. LANSING OF
Buffalo, who had been elected to ill the vacancy
In tho Thirty-l rst District occIsiouei By the
death Of the Hon. john GANsoN. Day after
day, with the perslstency Of paid advocate,
did Senator LANNING BATTLE for the Ring and
endeavor to cripple and defeat the legislation
asked for by the Governor. II was said at that
time that LANNING was ambitious 20 return to
the Senate, ana as the Canal Ring was all pow
erful In hts district, his course was simply bid
for Its support. Whether this Is 80 or not, 1t IS
certain that the Ring made n strong effort TO re-
nominate him, tut they were defeated IN the Con-
yention, and G. c. TORRANCE. Democrat who
Ia 10 full sympathy with the Goyernor,was nom-
mated. In the rwenty-siNth Senate District the
Hon. WILLIAM JOHNSON has likewise fallen a
victim TO his love for the canal contractors, and
been forced to give way to S. G. HAMMoND, a
pronounced follower Of the Governor In the
last Assembly. And even the sage OF Onondagn,
the Hon. THOMAS G.. ALvoRD, who, II was SUP
posed, had lie claim upon the First Assembly
District Of Onondaga county, has gone down
before the demand OF the people for men who
will support the Governor In the work OF reform.
Poor Old saltl VIII the Central Railroad retain
him as counsel at $1,000 year now that he can
no longer look out for their interest in the halls
Of the LeGislature1 He will be missed by the
Canal Ring, the Railroad Ring, the Salt Ring,
and all the other Rings but in the enjoyment OF
his forced retirement from public life he can
have the satisfaction OF knowing that he worked
hard for all the money he ever got while Ia the
Legislature, and never drank anything weaker
than whiskey straight.

the Justice out Of court, the latter had Mr..
EDGAR arrested, and fined him t25 and costs for
contempt, giving him one week In which 20 pay
the penalty OF his irreverence. Mr.. EDGAR did
not pay the fine, and at the expiration Of the
week, by the order OF the Justice, he was again
arrested, taken to New Brunswick, and locked
up In Jail, when he concluded to pay the fine
and costs under protest, and was thereupon re-
leased. For this stretch OF authority Justice
NEWTON was indicted and convicted OF false
imprisonment in the Court Of Quarter Sessions
in Middlesex county, the Justice himself having
been a member Of the Grand Jury which re-
turned tire indictment against him.

The Nomination for District Attorney.

When Gov. DIX appointed District
Attorney for Kings county few years
ago in place Of the incumbent whom he
removed, he selected for the place gen
tleman and lawl er Of excellent standing
personally and professionally, but con-
spicuously lacking in one of the most i'm
portant requisites for that office He had
no experience, or scarcely any, in the trial
OF criminal cases; indeed, some Of his best
friends, when questioned on the subject,
freely expressed doubt as to whether he
had ever tried criminal case in his life.
He went into Office with the great disad-
vantage of having yet TO master difficult
branch of the law, and forced to depend
largely upon the learning and advice of
his subordinates.
The Office of District Attorney in this
city is greatly sought after The pay Is
far there is limited but important
patronage in the appointment of assist
ants, and the power Is enormous. The
political influence which can be eXerted
through the pervcison and abuse of tins
power makes the Office lOadstone for
INSCRIPTIONS politicians. But there is no
Office III which the people have deeper
interest. High character and unswervlng
integrity are Indispensable In public
prosecutor. The voters of this city must
see TO II, in the coming election, that the
man whom they choose possesses these
attributes beyond question.
But Governor DIX's mistake must not be
initiated. 1t will be wise to demand Of
candidates some knowledge OF criminal
law. Strange to say, n student may be adj
mitted TO the bar in New York without
the faintost acquain ancc with the law Of
crimes or criminal procedure, and doubt
less there are not few lawyers III this
State to-day who never read an indict-
ment through, and would scarcely know n
writ OF habeas corpus when they saw it,
So that TO be u counsellor ut law 10y no
means establishes he fitness OF a candidate
TO fulfil the duties of district attorney.
AS III other callings, qualification for the
particular work III view is insisted upon as
prerequisite TO employment. SO II should
be here. The people do not want an officer
who will have 10 learn criminal law at
their expense. They want "a district attOr-
ney who has learned il already.
Up TO this time no candidate has been
nominated who so well combines the rcqui-
site character, learning. and experiences rs
the present occupant Of the Office.

Nothing could offer better inducements
to MOODY and slNKEY to begin their work Of
revival In New York than the way their cause is
supported 10y the city press. All the great daily
papers here are ranged on their side. They have
neither been assailed nor ridiculed, even by the
wicked among these papers. so far as We have
observed. The articles about them and their
labors In some Of our contemporaries have sur
pns ed us, not merely by showing a proper ap-
probation OF the evaucclists, but 10y display
Of rehrious knowledge and pious zeal. II
Is evident that many Of the sC-called secular
editors arc familiar with religious thincs ana
interested in the religious welfare Of the conf
munity. This fact is worthy Of consideration.
II was either MooDY or SANKEY who, on aIriy-
ing IN this city some time ago, said that while
laboring In London they had been opposed by a
portion u the daily press; but there Is no sign
OF anything Of the kind here. Our journals Will
not only report MooDrs sermons, but will re-
enforce, IN their own way, his arguments. ex-
FORMATIONS, and appeals 10 the hardened sinners,
foolish prodigals aud sleek hypocrtes OF the
city. This sort OF cooperation must be i'm
menscly advantageous to the rcvlvalists. They
Will mud more OF It here than anywhere else in
the country. They need not look for much Of 1t
from the press Of Boston, Philadephia, or
BROOKLYN: and when they get out to Chicago or
Cincinuhtl-well, we can only hope that they
will not lnd sumething else.
Perhaps VIC can acc .uut for the fricnilness OF
the editors of the New York daily papers toward
MOODY aud SANKEY by tue fact that, having oc-
casion to look into the depths of the wickedness
OF the city, and being aware OF tue evils aud
dangers Of the times. they are peculiarly alive
TO the necessity OF u religious revival aud moral
reform

it; and that he may combine with other
workingmen TO resist the combinations
which inevitably grow out Of the CONSOLE
dalton Of capital This is the right that is
on trial in Pennsylvania; for, so far as we
can learn the reports OF outrages commit
ted by the Clear6eld miners are like the
outrage reports from the Southern states
in their proportion of story 10 truth. The
Miners National ASSOCIATION propose TO
test this right, in the highest courts of the
State if necessary; and they will doubtless
appeal from the verdict in the case OF
PARKS. Furthermore. they hold that
the trainers of the statute of 1872 did
not introduce the words in any way"
from n mere desire to amplfy; and their
Interior object is TO bring about, through
the ballot box, legislation which shall not
only do justice TO the rights Of working
men, but do that justice in terms free
from ambiguity.
