The New York Bribe-Taker

The fate that has overtaken Jaehne. the
New York Alderman accused Of taking
bride in the Broadway Surface railroad
matter, ought to serve as warning TO
ambitious young politicians who are in
haste to get rich, or who prefer 10 seek
power and place by crooked paths rather
than straight ones. Only a few days
ago he was the proud and prosperous
Vice President Of the Board of Aldermen.
He was power in the politics Of the city,
and his ward voted as he directed. He
was a sort Of a swell in his way, and wore
clothing of the finest material and most
fashionable cut. lie had troops Of friends,
and dispensed his favors with a free hand.
In his lonely cell in the TOombs he pre-
sents pitiful contrast to the figure he
cut at the clubs and in the City Hall as
the Vice President of the Board of Alder
men.
There is not much reason to doubt that
he will be sent to join Ferdinand Ward at
Sing Sing, or Banker Fish, at Auburn. He
will hardly be known again as the power
full ward politician. He will never again
have a chance to vote away the city's
property for a mere song, as it were, in
order that he may flourish as a BRIDE
| taker.
No effort should be spared to discover
the other bribe-taking Aldermen. 1t is
probable that the truth will be got at and
the guilty ones be made to suffer. Who
can tell to what extent the great city of
New York is robbed by those who are
chosen to watch and protect her interests.
Only once in a while by some accident
their wrong doing reaches the public ear,
ana then an indignant people demand the
punishment OF the robbers. 1t is a pity
that there isn't much more severe pun
ishment provided for those public SER
wants who prove themselves unfaithful to
the trust repOsed in them. 1t is a diff
cult matter to always put honest and ca
pable men into Office, but public sentl-
ment ought to be so pronounced and the
law so severe against wrOng-doing that
even a dishonest public servant wouldn't
dare TO do a dishonest act.

Ztris were JUS stepping on the tracks 10 cross

she did not heed because she confounded the

beyond the reach Of the train.

applause for the brave act, and the cheers
were taken up by the girls, aud Lynch was
led back TO his shanty by the whole crowd like

A Threatening Outlook.


The labor troubles in the West have
very threatening aspect. Neither the
railroad officials nor the Knights OF Labor
show q disposition 70 yield, and the con-
dition OF affairs appears 70 be rapidly ap-
preaching the point at which force viii
have 10 be used 70 preserve life and
] property.
/ Notwithstanding the assertions Of the
/ Knights OF Labor that they are ia no way
responsible for any Of the outragss which
have been committed, and that they will
not countenance outrages Of any
kind, Outrages are being committed. and
there is not much reason 70 doubt that
the perpetrators are either IN sympathy
or connected with labor organizations.
The leaders Of the Knights Of Labor may
not encourage attacks upon life and
property, and It may be that they do what
they can 20 prevent them, but it is next
10 impossible to contTol all OF their mem
bers and sympathizers.
DItching trains, placing torpedoes
upon tracks. and disabling engines all
indicate a feeling which, If not restrained,
may manifest itselfin a still more marked
and disastrous way.
Whatever may be the merits Of the
controversy between the Knights Of La
Dor and the railroads involved in the
trouble it is plain that the cause Of the
Knights will not be advanced BY violence.
Attacks upon life and property will tend
TO arouse popular sentiment against
them, and 70 make it easier for the rail.
roads to bring TO their aid the power
Of the States in which the violence
occurs. and also OF the national govern.
ment il the state governments are found
unequal to the emergency. The strikers
are much more likely to gain victory by
peaceful means.
Already the business of the country be-
gins to suffer, and II the internal CON-
merce Of the West is delayed much longer
there will be serious inconvenience, sut-
fering and disaster. The markets Of sew
eral large cities will soon begin to show
signs OF scarcity Of food products if
the movement Of freights continues to be
blocked, and if the threat to extend the
strike to all the railroads and manufac-
tories OF the country Is carried out the
loss will be immense and disaster wide
spread.
II the railroads combine and decide 10
resist the demands Of the knights to the
utmost extent, and the knights carry out
their threatened programme a peaceful
solution OF the trouble will not be proba-
bic. Outrages win increase. AS passions
become innamed respect for life and
property will decrease. 1t will hardly be
possible for the leaders OF the knights
to hold In check thousands Of idle men,
many OF whom will be penniless, and
whose families will be without bread.
The whole country is anxiously watch
ing the development Of the various
phases Of the trouble, and the desire is
general that some satisfactory solution
Of il may speedily be found.

Gov. Hnrs Bold stand for the Right.

Gov. Hills Bold Stand for the Right.
/ Gov. Hill, OF New York, Is getting words
Of praise from both parties in that state
for his promptness in signing the Cantor
bill On Monday, and for his bold and ag-
gressive message advising that the fran
ehise Of the Broadway Surface railway
IN New York city, which, it is alleged,
the aldermen we're bribed to give TO Jacob
saarP and others, be vacated.
The Cantor bill is intended TO prevent
Aldermen OF any city OF the state from
giving away valuable franchises, and Is
aimed At several corporations which were
suspected OF an intention 10 grab valuable
franchises in New York and otner cities.
The pressure brought TO bear on the Gov
ernor against the bill was very strong,
but he did not hesitate a moment. He
saw that the bill was IN the interest Of the
people and against the interest OF bride
givers and bride takers, and he signed it
at once.
His message declaring that the way
was open for repeating the stolen Broad
way franchise. and earnestly urging the
Legislature 10 pass bill repeating it at
L N-+-~T eAAApAEA an MuEA pftuTu dhA au u IL
precedented document. bias given him a
place in the estimation Of all classes OF
people and OF all parties higher than be
ever before held. There are so many
weak, time serving and bribe-taking men
in public places that the people are glad
OF an opportunity to honor an honest man
who mas the courage to stand squarely,
without urging or hesitation, in favor of
the right.
A strong argument has been made in
the Legislature Of New York to show that
there is no power lodged anywhere to va.
cate the Broadway franchise, but it is
probable that the Legislature will vacate
1t and let the lawyers wrangle in the
courts over the question whether it ex-
ceeded its powers or not. There is no
longer much doubt that majority Of the
Aldermen were bribed to dispose Of the
Broadway franchise to Jacob Sharp and
his partners for very small part of its
value. 1t would be only justice to vacate
it-give it back to the city-and put the
bribe-giyers and the bribe-takers in the
penitentiary. Gov. Hill is ready to do mis-
part to accomplish that object.

The DefenseIess Condition of Our
Lake Cities.


The facts not generally recognized that
our lake cities are exposed to attack by
way Of the lakes. In discussing the ques-
ton of the defenseless condition of this
country, and the importance OF at once
entering upon the work of building forti-
1cations reference is almost always had
to the seacoast cities. The board which
President Cleveland appointed last May,
by authority OF the bill approved March
8, 1885, in their report call particular at
tention TO the lake cities. The board
says: s'The treaty OF 1917 between the
United States and England limited each
party TO an Insignificant naval force upon
the lakes. At that time the country on
both sides was undevelopsd; with the ex-
ception OF Detroit there was nothing
perhaps deserving the name of town
upon the upper lakes. Everything has
changed; large cities as centres of COM
merce now dot the coasts of the lakes,
and the wealth and property liable to cap
ture and destruction are enormous IN
amount. In the meanwhile, our neigh
bors over the line have surmOunted the
rapids of the st. Lawrence and the Falls
OF Niagara by canals which, in their pres
ent condition, permit the passage of boats
OF feet draught, and when the improve
ments shall have been finished will have
a depth OF IA feet. The present draught
will admit many gunboats now In the
possession of Great Britain, and when
the depth OF water is increased, armored
vessels from the other side of the Atlantic
may float in the waters OF Lake Erie"
1t seems that almost without exciting
suspicion in this country England has
been quietly opening way TO reach some
OF our richest cities in the event Of war.
When it is remembered that the canal by
which the English war vessels would get
into the lakes is outside of our territory
and beyond the range Of any guns oper-
ated from our territory, it becomes appar-
entthst our lake cities are about as de-
fenseless as our seaeoast cities.
Although It is true that the canal is not
available for deep-draughtv vessels, and al
though IL is not intended to make it avail
able for such vessels, England has more
than 100 war vessels that could be taken
through the canal when completed, and
with disastrous effect on the lake cities.
one OF the strongest arguments in favor
OF government appropriation for deep
ening the Erie canal is that it will afford
this country an opportunity 10 put war
vessels on Lake Erie quickly in the event
OF a war with England.
