The Board has steadily proceeded on the
theory that "pauperism, Ike disease might DC
represscd by the application of proper remedial
agencies" It's work in carrying this Theory
into effect is by no means confined to riddihS
the State of alien paupers. The Board IL con-
stantly laboring to get children out OF the poor
houses before they shall lose their self-respect
and ocouire n taste for dependence. And it also
Iobors to teach those who are charitably in
clined to give not thOughtleSsly but so as ho'
to encourage pauperism. In each OF these dilec-
tions its efforts have borne excellent truit. 10
abolish Board thus efficient because some one
headed departments have proved successful
would be anything but wise.

rur ycu~ ERO0KLyy COMMISSIONERS.

THE NEU BROOKLYN COnVlNSIONEhS.
To-day the heads of departments appointed
by Mavor Whitney will take Office in B!ooblyn :;
and the people Of that city will for the first
time have an opportunity to watch the work
ings Of Il city government wholly under the
control of one Democrat. In naming his COM
missioncrs Mr.. Whitney displayed n more IN
dependent spirit than many OF those VINO op-
uostd his election mad reason to expect, anu
one that could not have been altogether salts
factory to the hungry and thirsty Democrats who
for f0ur wears had been smut out from the pat
roDage on which they had previously waXcd
fat. His subservicncy to Boss Mclaughlin
was NOT unite so great as had been looked for
although for the chief places at his disposal be
named men in entire sympathy with Nc
Laughlin and his methods. Still, he appointed
two Republicans; and fol two Offices he named
personal friends who are citizens of good stand
ing. The main work of his administration, so
far as appointments are conc"rncd Is no"
over; fifteen of the fUrty-iiye members oil the
Board of Education alone remaining to be
named this year. But by the Brooklyn
charter the Mayor has absolute power OF re-
moval as well as Of appointment Mr.. Whitney
may at any time put new man III charge oi
any department.
The only notOriou'ly unfit appointment made
WAS that of Thomas Carroll as Police CommiS-
sioner. Fortunately under the Civil Service
laws. the power of this official has been greatly
curtailed; otherwise the assumption oi thi'
office by such violent partisan ANA devoted
McIaughlnite would bc matter of grave ap-
prchcnsion on the part Of the law abiding pco-
ple OF oar ncighbDring city. Mr.. W hitney 5
brand-new Civil Service Commissioners are
trying hard to devise means OF improving upon
the methods of Mayor Lows exc .l.cEt commits
sion. but there is reason to believe that they
will not succeed in breaking down the NIic-
guards which the law, have bult up around the
appointing of subprdlnatcs in municipal gov
crnlncuts. Hence Police Commissioner carroll
will not be- 50 duugerOu, man a. under the ola
system. Two Of the new officials have been
promoted from lower positions IN departments 5
with which they are thoroughly familiar and
one of Mayor Lows appOntecS was retained
Several of the newcomers have their public
careers to make. They succeed officials VINO
have been honest, industrious aud pan'ilklnG,
aud will have to work hard TO conduct their de
partnents rs successfully As their predecessors.
AZ the same time, they will have the examples
of those who went before 10 inspire them.
Of course it would be unfair to pass Juds
ment on the incoming officers in advance. They
are TO be judged by their work. That they may
perform their duties coasccntiouoy, with an
eve solely to the interests of the community,
should be the wish of al rght-thinking citizens.
There il no desire that Mayor Whitney ad-
mjnistration should come to grief. If he and
his snbordinates serve the city well, the people
will be agreeably disappointed. but they Will be
not the less gratihcd.
