PERSONAL AND PECULIAR.

William Peabody Endicott, father of the
Secretary of War. who died in Salem Sum
day at the age of SO, was descendant in the
seventh generation from Gov. John Endi-
colt, and graduate Of Harvard in the class
of 1922. He was born and spent his life in
Salem, which has never wanted an Endic0tt
among its citizens since the Puritan of the
Puritans"who founded the family came over
to take charge OF the plantations at Naum-
keag in 1923.

The erroneous item concerning the sale
for taxes of the birthplace Of Horace Greeley
in Amherst, N. H., has awakened wide
spread interest among the many friends of
the deceased. Postmaster Sloan of Amherst
has received communication from Juan
Lewis of the Interior Department at WASH
ington expressing desire to purchase the
property for the public benefit. A Boston
gentleman also wrote to Deacon BOylstOn OF
Amherst, asking If he could procure a good
title to the birthplace. A movement will
soon be made among the friends If Mr..

reasons. It has cured that evil, but has
brought Others. Mayor Chapman's remedy
is 70 reduce the tenure Of the police to five
wears, and make reappointment optional
with the Mayor. That undoubtedly would
tend to remove the present difficulty, which
arises from too great and too long security of
tenure, provided the police felt certain that
political considerations would have no weight
in determining whether or not they should
be reappointed, and that their honesty and
efficiency would constitute the only test. But
If they felt that party services would count
we should soon see a revival of the evil times
when the police used to perform as work
ers." This danger could perhaps be averted
by means of provision that tile policemen
on the expiration of their terms should be
examined by the police commission, and the
names of such as were found competent GER
tilted to the Mayor OF course the Mayor
would not be compelled to reappoint them,
but we imagine no Mayor would refuse to do
so, after non-partsan commission had ex-
amined their record and found them worthy
of reappointment On partisan grounds 1t
is quite obvious that the present system is
not what it should be. The police are alto
gether too Independent and too little under
the control of their superiors. If the Mayor
is to be held responsible to public opinion, as
he now is, for the inefficiency of policemen it
is only fair that he should have the power to
remove the delinquent officers and put ef1c
lent meu in their places

The Police LAW.

Mayor Chapman in his inaugural address
recommends some important changes in the
law under which the police are appointed
and hold office. At present the Mayor Sc
lects from the list of eligibles furnished him
by the police commission and the Board Of
Aldermen passes on his selection, confirming
or rejecting as it deems proper. The May
or has power to summarily suspend police
man, but he cannot remove one without the
consent OF the Aldermen, and the policeman
can demand that specific charges be made
against him. Now an officer may be very
inefficient, and yet it be impossible to prove
that inefaciency by legal testimony. There
may be, too, moral certainty that he is cor
rupt without the ability to prove it. An in
competent or corrupt officer may therefore
remain on the force until he is sixty years of
age because of the difficulty Of obtaining
conclusive evidence against him. The pur-
pose for which this lawwas originally passed
was TO prevent removals for mere partisan

German Americans.

Many Americans will be surprised to learn
that New York is the third greatest German
city in the world. Yet this is the estimate
of the New York Herald, which arranges
them in the order of Berlin. with more than
million population, Hamburg, with about
half million, and New York with Ger
man speaking population Of three hundred
and fifty thousand Besides Berlin and
Hamburg there is no German city of more
than hundred and fifty thousand popula-
ton. In New York the Germans number
about one fourth the entire population, and
can cast seventy thousand votes when every
German voter turns out. Not less surprising
than these figures is the part which these
German citizens bear in the business affairs
of the city. In London the rapdity with
which the diligent German clerks are dis
placing young Englishmen in the banking
houses and counting rooms has dismayed
the young Britons and set their elders to
painful cogitations. If the Germans have
not displaced the Yankees in New York.
they have at least proved themselves respec-
table rivals. Among the business men and
manufacturers German names are very pro-
minent; some of them have national repu-
tation, like the Steinways, the piano makers,
the Seligmanns and August Belmont, the
bankers, the latter of whom married Commo-
dore Perry's daughter, the Havemeyers and
the Ottendorfers. These names have been
known to New York for half century or so,
But the young men who have not yet made
names are crowding themselves forward.
The piano-forte business is almost entirely
in the hands Of the Germans, the butchers
trade is largely in their hands, and it is esti-
mated that large majority Of the grocers
and bakers are also Germans. In the Ger
man Savings Bank of New York, to which
every German is said to carry his spare mon
ey as soon as he lands, this thrifty fourth of
New York's population have on deposit up
wards OF twenty-five million dollars, and
this does not include the amounts which
Germans have deposited in other banks of
the city. They support in the city four or
five daily papers, printed in German, and
large number of weeklies and monthlies.
That great standing army Of Germany may
be a terrible burden, but the training in
practical economy which the people obtain
while saving to support it, enables them to
shoot ahead with great rapidity when they
get in their oars on this side of the water

1t is limited that the dying words attributed
to Emperor William, II am man of peace
but If Russia forces me to war l shall faith
fully stand by my ally Austria" are in reali-
ty convenient fiction of Prince Bismarck's s,
whereby the latter hoped to impress the
policy Of the old Emperor upon the minds of
the people in advance of any possible action
OF the successor to the throne. Whether
this is true or not there can be little doubt
that the sentiment has the approval Of the
Chancellor-unless perhaps 'my ally Aus

Biddeford is naturally Democratic city.
1t has been carried by the Republicans on
rare occasions when the corruption and mis-
management of the ruling ring have been so
outrageous as to provoke revolt in the
Democratic ranks. 1t was thought that
Mondays election would prove one of these
occasions. Certainly the disclosures Of cor
ruption and mismanagement had been bad
enough to justify revolt. But it unfortu-
nately happens that there is large purchas-
able element among the voters of Biddeford,
and the ring managed to save themselves by
appealing to it with the only arguments that
are ever effective with tia liberal amount
of greenbacks.
