Young Mr.. Russell is making great ont
cry because the police of Boston are under
the control Of the State instead OF the city.
Mr.. Russell thinks this is terrific blow at
local sell government. and appears to be
very melancholy over it. The change which
MI. Russell complains Of was made in 1885,
and was founded on the well grounded belief
that the administration of the police was
corrupt and incapable. A large number of
the people Of Boston, including Democrats
ss well as Republicans, petitioned for the
change and that it has been one of adj
vantage is disclosed by comparison of the
criminal statistics before and after it. In
1883 over $4,000 worth of property was
reported stolen. In 1888 the amount was
only little over $4,000 Evidently the
tmeves have not fourished since the change
as they did before. As regards the
enforcement Of the liquor law, the
progress has been In the same direction.
In 1854 there were only 161 arrests for VIOLA
sion OF that law, while in 1888 there were
o6S; In the former year 14S seizures were
made. while In the latter the number had in.
creased to 1,189. III the removal of the con-
troi OF the police from the city council and
the placing Of 1t In the hands of board an

suits, and that 1t has seems to be clearly
demonstrated, no good citizen OF Boston will

iacss are likely to remain unmoved by his

There can be no installing the meaning of
Secretary Mobiles letter to one Of the rerated
employees of the pension bureau. 1t simply
means that there is to be thorough reor-
gauization Of the force In that department,
and that all the re-rated employees will have
to 90. The justice of this depends on the
extent TO which these men connYed at an
act which the Secretary declares was illegal.
The mere fact that they accepted an increase
Of pension awarded them by the Commission
brought not to drive them out OF the Office any
more than it ought to drive Senator Mahder-
son out Of the United States Senate. But If
they aided and abetted the illeeality. that is

Boston appears to be getting tired of its
great man,-Mr. John l.. Sullivan. The
Journal suggests that his indictment as a
common brawler would be good thing for

treated thus by the Boston press, he may
shake the dust of his native town from his
feet and betake himself to some other city,
and then Boston will have lost its best
