1t is very remarkable to note how very
much is given to blunders our Democratic
friends OF the late Ohio Legislature were
in political legislation. They passed q
partisan bill in advance Of the municipal
election in Cincinnati, to put the police
securely under the control Of = commission
which the Democratic bosses" could easi.
ly manipulate on election day. As was
foreseen, the Republicans elected the
mayor, and the Democrats congratulated
themselves that their scheme was passed
just in time. But the new registration
law for Cleveland and Cincinnati puts in
the hands Of the mayors Of those cities
the control Of the police on election days.
Hence, whatever the police may do the
rest OF the year, on election days they must
obey the mayor.
