The action of Lieutenant-C Commander Cor

refuses to undertake the work on the ground
that the law does not leave the matter OF the
superintendent appointment aud removal to
the absolute discretion of the Mayor, and fur

complicated and circumscribed by Its relations

cannot now be altered, and it is doubtful
if any Legislature could ever be got together
which would pass a law giving the pro-
posed department anything like so com
plcte an autonomy as that which the
Mayor and the Committee of Twenty-one de-
sire for it. Mayors are mortal, as well as
other people, and it might be quite possible
for II strongly partisan Mayor to want to
remove a model Superintendent of Street
Cleaning simply because he was attending to
his business and not meddlng with politics.
The committee say the best defence against
such action is to hold the Mayor responsible /;
but this is one of the easiest things in the

MIR. Combines DEFEAT.

Mr.. Conkling received 80 votes yesterday,
while 20 Republican members voted for other
candidates. After all his eXhausting and hut
initiating efforts, he obtains only one
third of the Republican votes. Boasts were
made on Monday that $40 iron-clad members
"woud vote for Mr.. Conkling forever" but he
did not have that number to start with, and
"Me Too received only 20. 1t seems that of
Mr.. COnklings friends failed to appreciate the
devotion of the sub-SenatOr who took the leap
with Mr. Conkling, and it is possible that some
of Mr. PlAtt's friends may see fit to support
somebody else before long in place of MIR.
Conkling. In short the defeat of the machine
is complete decisive and overwhelming.
Two-thirds of the Republican members of
the Legislature have made formal declaration
that they do not want Mr.. COnkling reelected.
The time has come for him to withdraw from
a contest in which there can be nothing but
humiliation for him. To this day, his fatter-
ers have fed him with the notion that he was
the choice of majority of the Republican
members and, as late az Monday night, for
NAL caucus was called in the belief that his
supporters could control it, There is an eud
of dreams. Mr.. Conkling represents only de-
feated minority of the Republican party of this
State in his present attitude. If he cares for
the Republican party, its principles or its sue
cess. he will take himself out of the way at
once. When he resigned his seat in the Sen
ate. he left his personal friends very narrow
ground on which to make a stand in his de-
fence. When, after that resignation, he went
to Albany to canvass for reelection, he left them
no ground at all. Now, with more than two
thirds of the Republican members of the Leg
islature opposed to him, he cannot stay in the
field single day without making it clear that
he is willing to win as an opponent Of the Re-
publican party, and by the aid of Democratic
votes.
Mr.. Conkling cannot win in that way. This
world has small respect for beaten Boss.
The very Democrats who were willing to con-
fer and conspire with him some days ago, when
he pretended to represent a majority or nearly
majority of the Republican members, will
waste no time in helping him to-day. The ono
thing that the Democrats want is an adjourn
ment of the Legislature without any election,
SO that they may make mischief in the contest
next fall, aud retain their control in the
United States Senate.
Can Mr.. Conkling's thirty-fve Republican
votes he used for any such act Of t-eachery to
the Republican partyi There Is no reason to
believe 1t. These members were attached to
Mr.. COnkling or admired him as q Republican
leader. There is no evidence that they are
willing to follow him as bolter and an ally of
the Democrats. But 1t would be direct and

omen. aid to the Democratic party II any OF
them should vote to adjourn the Legislature
without an election Of Senators.
If Mr.. COnkliDg will not voluntarily with
draw-as his own self-respect and regard for
the Republican party should prompt him to
do-the members who have supported him
should Immediately drop him. Let them pro-
caed and vote for other Republicans who are
worthy of a seat in the SENATE. Their
constituents will not excuse them for
adberine to Mr.. COnkling after 1t has
become known that twO-thirds of the Re
publican members are opposed to him. That
will be everywhere regarded as an attempt to
break ND the Republican party, either to form
new one, or to make an alliance with the Demo-
Gratis. The Republican member who takes that
course must expect that his constituents will
thenceforth wholly distrust him, and count him
AZ no better than Democrat in disguise.
In the small gathering on Monday night, there
was much eloquent and impressive talk of the
necessity of submitting to the will of the ma
iority. If the party is to be kept alive, it was
said. the minority must yield its preferences.
Very well, let the minority who support Messrs'
Conkling and Plat bow to the decision of the
majority. and show Their readiness to support
other candidates The Republican party Will
then be united and victorious once more, in
single day, and all cause of controversy Will De

The Republican members of the Legislature
will do well not to obscure the facts of the
situation with any false issues The merits OF
Mr.. Conkhng and Mr.. Plat are not now under
discussion. They were defeated in the ballot
ting yesterday.
There are only two solutions OF the present
crisis. First, the adjournment of the Legisa-
ture by a Conklng- Tilden coalition; and, sec
ond. the election of two Republicans, 10y Re
publican votes. 1t does not seem credible that
any Republican should hesitate moment rs to
his duty in these circumstances. There are two
vacancies in the Senate Of the United States; the
Republican State of Ncw-Iork has the right
ard the power to fill them to-day with Rcpub-
Hcans If by the trcachcry of twcnty-six mem
bcrs of the Legislature those seats are sold or
given away, and the Republican majority III the
Senate is thus lost for years to come, no snii-
cient cxcIse can ever be made for the men
who shared in the act Two Republicans can
be elected to-day. II requires but 81 votes,
and we have JOG. Nomattcr abOut thcmoilycs

Asscmbl,man or Senator who, to-day, for any
reason. sells out to the Democrats.

Nou-York State arose yesterday to higher politi-
cal nosition than she has occupied for many years.
Uencekrth she will have some influence in the
affairs of the Republican party. Mr.. Conkling was
right when he complained on Monday that one OBJ
iect Of this attack upon him WAS to keep him from
controlling the New-York delegation to the next
National Republican Convention. The state had
enouQh of that sort of business in 1876 and in 1890
I'm 1884 the delegation will go the embodied will
of the whole party in the State, not as the breeches
nocket property Of Boss. AT Washington too, We
shall have two Senator's who will devote themselves
10 tho interests of the State rather than 10 their per-
sona glory and the qualification OF their personal
spites.

have more to show for his efforts If he had gone

that he won't have to resign any more.

The organs of the late machine try to de-
rive some comfort from the fact that there
were a large number of distinguished men
voted for Yesterday by the independent major
ity of the Republicans. They are not judclous
in calling especial attention to that fact. II
simply showed how many capable men tins
State possesses, and what difference OF opln-
ion as to their comparative merits Is at once
developed the moment the tyranny of the ma
chine is relaxed and electors begin to judge
for themselves The list of names presented
yesterday is one of which no party need be
ashamed Evarts, Fish, Depew, FOlgcr, Fen
ton. White, Wheeler, Cornell Davis, Wads-
worth, Rogers Choate, are names which
require no introduction or apology when
put forward for the highest places In
the gift of the people of the State. Of course
they cannot all he elected, and the majority
would do well as soon as possible to come to on
agreement among themselves as to the choice
TO be made among them. But with any two
of the men named above our State can bc sure
of n better representation than we could ever
have hoped for under the arrogant rule
of OR late senior Senator. They are all men
of practical acquaintance with public work, OF
integrity of character and reasonable dispo-
sition: men who are capable of caring for the
interests of their State, and at the same time
