financial knayery.
We respectfully submit to The Buffalo Courier
that there is nothing either In the Constitution OF
the Revised Statutes that requires it to talk undi-
utcd nonsense Obviously The Courier is laooring
under a contrary IMPRESSION for 1t remarks that IL
the Republicans carry the next Assembly the Hov-
errors veto power alone will protect the people
from partisan legislation and jobbery" Inc SWEEP
and touching inference which The Courier wouu
have the ultra marines draw is that Democratic
Assembly would periodically assist the Governor
In protecting the people from partisan Legislation
and iobbery. Well we had Democratic Assembly
few years ago and such was its consuming desire
TO proect the people from partisan legislation and
obbery that it spent the first weeks OF the ses-
sion in vulgar deadlock growing out OF quarrel
over spoils The Assembly has gone Democratic
only seven times since 1860 Why 1t is the pop
ular impression that Democracy's peculiar method
of protecting the people from partisan legisa ton
and jobbery goes far to explain It's well nigh unl-
form inability to carry the Legislature
Ex.Mayor Cooper, on arriving in the port of New
York Is to be led to the front Of the County DEM
ocracy by committee of one hundred OF that
BODY We should like to see in Judge pictorial
illustration of this proceeding. 1t would be highly
divertlng to observe Mr. Cooper gazing intently at
the hydra headed committee to find Jaehne,
Keenan,, Squire, Flynn and their Old associates
We have an idea that the expression on Mr.
| Cooper's face under the circumstances. would COM
bine uncertainty, disgust, and contempt
A wise man, Governor, does not give advice I'M
less he knows it will be taken, and shrewd
- boss never cracks the party whip when he sees
that the colts are too risky
There is some discussion as to whether it should
he Bedlows Island or Liberty Island. We beg to
suggest solution of the problem that will settle 1t
for all time. Let Mr. Geojones organize and equip
an expedition and go forth and discover" this bit
of real estate In our harbor and henceforth let 1t
be known az Geojones Island"
Clean hands and pure heart are the essentiai
qualifications of New. York's next Mayor, and we
don't see them in County Democrats who are
snatching at the prize.
According to the "best authority" quoted in
THE TRIBuyE's Washington dispatches yesterday,
q the action of the Democratic State Committee OF
New. York Is without any Significance whatever.
The allusion must be to that extremely unanimous
vote of confidence in and approval of President
| Cleyelapds Administration which everybody
knows the committee adopted both by standing
ballot $50 to speak, and by reclamation that
resounded from Lake Erie to Montauk Point
