A NICE LITTLE POLITICAL SCHEME Is bhiN|
WORKED FOR ALL 1T Is WORTH.
The decision of Governor Hill in the Shaler case
will be awaited with a good deal OF interest," py
politicians especially by tho'e conysrsant with the
miner workings of the political machine. IL tne
Mayors removal is acauiesced IN by the Governor
as IS expected-it Will confirm a growing belief
that there is a pretty distinct understanding be-
tween the Governor and the Mayor relative to
the disposition of certain local offices. When tine
Aqueduct bill Its wav thr ,ugh the Leglsiar-
ure II was deem d important by the Governor ana
John OIjnen, che Aqueduct CONTRACTOR that tne
Mayor should not ac lively op pose the measure
He cvuld not consistently, oppose Tue en-
largement of the Aqneduct Commission;
because at the previous session ne hau
caused bill to be introduced providing for an
additional commissioner. But by the Aqueduct
bill recently passed three new commissioners were
appointed and the MAYOR and Controller were
dropped. These officials were the only ones on tne
Commission ected by the people, ana IL was le't
that II both mad an energetic protest az inst .pe
passage OF the bill 1t likely TO be killed ne
Mayor, when asked If he intended TO oppose tbe
bill SAID he did not. "a he was glad to be retrieved
of the duties of he place. This was deemed STRANGE
for Nr Grace had never been noted foi turning his
back power and authority. The Controller nad
too much pude aud sef-respect TO make ben'
against bill that the Mayor would not oppose
although he beiieved it was grave mistake ID
leave COMMISSION, which might, oy extravaganza
and uuwIse measures, bl den the CITY with need
less debt of ST. 100000 or S20,OOO.O0O. The
Mayor would not unite IN a protest TO tue Governor
against signing the bill after it bad been passed
SAID an exceedingly well-lnfvrmei DemOcratic
politician. who knows great deal OF what Is gong
on below the surface of politics.:
