There is ono result Of the Injunction 30
hnstity gzanted BY Judge MoonE in the cass
Of tho West Side .Park Commissioners which
We omitted to mention In commenting upon
the subject, but which is Of the graveat ill.,
portance. Tho Judge required bond from
Messrs. LrrE, HOLDEN, M11tAsD, md Muus
Of only 5000; but tho original bond given
by these gentlemen in assuming tho trust
has been released rs TO the consequences OF
any not subsequent to the Governors order
removing them aud tha qualification Of thair
succossors. BY restraining thoir Successors
from entering On the duties OF the Office
Judge MoonE lns virtually continued tho
oiacia1 life Of tho old Commissioners without
providing m adequate bond Tor the security
Of ths public intorests under their
control. II there should DO any diversion
Of tho park funds by any ono Of these per-
sons under tho present conditions, tho pub
lio would have only tho ridicu1ously iusig-
nificant bond Of $4,000 to fall back upon for
Naturalization, II indeed tho now bond
could be held to cover deficiency In tho
trust. Perhaps this Is matter which did
not occur to Judge MoonE, or he would have
lsoaitnted to grant m injunction before the
other aido OF tho case was presented to him.
At nil events, ho should review lis decision
to tho extont Of requiring sufficient bond
from tie old Commissioners to protect the
interests Of the people; otherwise, any
abuse Of tho trust will plnoo q heavy moral
responsibility upon hfa shoulders.
