politics and is administered according to
the proclaimed policy of Mr.. Hayes as a
purely business institution, it will be no
impedim ent to Mr.. Conkling's influence i'll
State politics, any more than it was in the
recent election.
Considering the experience the country
has had of the Tenure of Office law it may
fairly be doubted whether that law is not a
mistake. It's practical effect is to raise and
vate and demoralize the public service. 1t
is not wise to fill the minds of officers with
anxiety and agitation respecting their ten
ure, and thereby divert their attention
and energy from their proper duties.
Had Mr. Arthur been sustained it
would have been an undoubted evil
to throw him out for few months
and then bring him back, thus interrupting
the regular and settled administration of
the Custom House. AS Mr. Merritt was to
take his place it would have been better to
relieve his mind at once of agtating doubts
and fears which interfered with exclusive
attention to the duties of his Office The
old system is perhaps the best, except with
the host of minor offices. If the Tenure of
Office law had not stood in the way, the ad-
ministration of the Custom House would
haze been quietly changed and all the
unseemly agitation on the subject have
been avoided. We do not think that Presi-
dent Hayes, or any other President, should
be fettered and obstructed by such law.
Nothing can be clearer than the right and
the expediency of allowing the President
free choice of members of his Cabinet, of
diplomatic agents, and of such important
executive officers as the Collectors of Gus
TOMS The recent victory of the ad-
ministration is the success of COR
rect principle. The country will not
be sorry to see the unseemly squabble
over the New York Custom House ended
by the success of the President in selecting
agents in whom he has confidence for col
lecting the revenue. We do not see how
the President can justly be held response
BILE if he has no efficient control of his sub
ordinates. We think it would be wise to
repeal the absurd Tenure of Office law, of
the recent controversy, and to substitute
for it q proper civil service rule for the
great multitude Of minor offices. It is not
Mr.. Conkling but the Tenure Of Office law
that is responsible for the recent confusion,
and the success of the President is, so far
as it goes, the victory of correct principle.

What About the Watson Chargess


The Board of Education convenes to-day
for the first time in q fortnight, and,
although there is probably large quantity
of important business on hand the matter
most imperatively demanding attention is
Commissioner Watson's charges OF briberyin
connection with the general interest on the
subject Of school ventilation. Some of the
Commissioners may be so blind rs not to
see that the entire membership OF the Board
is implicated by these charges, but the pub
lie sees the matter in its true light and
wonders how the Board could have ad-
journed on the day of Commissioner Wat
sons outburst without first taking deter
mined steps toward the vindication of it's
own insulted honor and dignity. President
Wood himself has been one of the vigorous
and effective workers in the direction Of
better ventilation; does Mr.. Watson intend
that the public shall believe that the Presi-
dent of the Board was bribed to say that he
nearly tainted in the bad air of one of the
city schoolrooms? OF course, if any bribes
have been made the money has not been
paid direct, but has gone through the
hands of friends, counsel or other agents
but Mr. Watson, in his profession of law
yer, has probably been acute enough to see
through these subterfuges and detect the
principals on both sides. Let the Board
appoint special committee to investigate
Mr.. Watson's charges if it desires to retain
its place in the public esteem.
Common Law and Religious Belief.
Our brief sketch published yesterday Of
baptismal ceremony which was produc-
tive of dangerous, if not fatal, consequences
has provoked one of our readers to discuss
the legal aspect of the affair should death
result. In the communication headed "rhe
River of Death" is quoted Chief Justice
Waites opinion, rendered in q noted
polygamy case to the effect that while law
cannot control religious belief and opinion
it can take cognizance Of acts which are the
result Of religious impulses. After oil that
may be said, however,. in favor of legal
repression Of practices which, though sup
under the worldly definition of unlawful
acts. it is very unlikely that the law will
ever be employed against isolated individ-
uals whose only victims are themselves.
There is wide difference, too, between
the impulses which lead to unlawful acts
under the Suise of religious duty. The
lady whose doctrinal zeal was SO fervent as
to lead her to baptism when the ceremony
was almost the equivalent of freezing to
death had nothing earthly to gain by her
course, in which respect she differed widely
from the bulk of so-called religious people
who have been threatened by the law-the
Mormons, for instance. 1t is also probable
that cases like that in question will be as
few in the future as they have been in the
past, and that in almost every religious
society there is q majority OF the member
ship that strive to reconcile faith with com.
mon sense and urge their brethren to do
likewise.
