buke from the bench

The splendid meeting in the Cooper Union
last night was an admirable complement to the
rally in the Brooklyn Rink on the previous
evening. Mr.. Miller spoke with greater full
ness and freedom, and his exposition of the is
sues of the campaign in Nation and State justi-
6es the large amount of space which THE
TRIBUNE devotes to its report OF the meet
ing The parts of his address devoted to the
tariff and the HighLcense question will COM
mand especial attention, and deserve to be
read by every voter who wishes to consider
himself well-informed. The resolutions
adopted have the right ring and are an ex-
cellent rehearsal and condensation Of the prin-
ciples of the Republican party as set forth in
the Chicago platform The speaking CAM
paign in the city has opened most auspiciously.
It is becoming tedious task to point out the
shortcomings of the Administration in the mat
ter of the Civil Service. They are numerous,
oft-repeated and seriously prejudicial to the
welfare of the public The Presidents letters
and orders have become deadletters. one and
all, and partisanship as offensive and political
activity as pernicious as have ever prevailed
since the spoils system began its Ubiquitous
sway are now habitual in all branches of the
Government service. These things have be-
come notorious. They are crying evils. They
should command more attention than they re-
ceive, because the country was justified in look
ing for something different. These observa-
tons are pertinent in connection with the let
ters furnished by our Washington correspond

Tammanys plot to get control of the Police
Board is one that every honest man and every
believer in honest elections should do his ut
most to bring to naught. The non-partisan
character of the Police Board is the bulwark Of
fair and honest elections in this city, since the
Police Commissioners have the appointment Of
all the election officials. 1t is doubtless the
prevailing opinion that this non-partisan char
acter is assured by law. Such is not the case.
1t has long been the custom to choose half of
the Police Commissioners from each of the two
great parties, and with most men elected to the
high Office of Mayor this custom would have
the force of law The Mayor to be elected this
year will appoint the successors of both the Re-
publican Commissioners. The bare exposure
of a scheme on the part of Tammany Hall to
secure these offices for itself by electing candi
date for Mayor Of its own ought to be enough
to defeat the project.

learn that its suspicion is unfounded and does

The wrath of the supporters of Cleveland with
their newspapers and particularly with The
New-Yor Tines though natural is not wholly
ustiiable. 1t is true that the organs do not
make much of a for the man whom they
once called better and stronger than his party
but then there is not much Of case to be made
for him. And besides must remember the
straits Of the poor things. Consider for instance,
the plight of the silly Times its lean
body stretched across the barbcd-wire fence be-
tween the two partics-its wide mouth shouting
for the Democratic National ticket and its heels
fcebiy kicking at the Democratic State ticket Then
comes Warner Miller taking cruel pains to iden-
tify his cause with Harrison's and so the weak
heels have to kick less and wrigglc more in an
effort to get back on the same side Of the fence
with the rest of the animal. Pity the sorrows
of the Cleveland hornblower, he makes shock
ing display, but he is doing the best he can.
