MAYOR CH4pIN,S TEMPTATION

Mayor Chaplin has been armed with the
mower of appointing three Park Commissioners,
who will succeed the commission of nine and
hold Office for a short term. When the heor
panization act was passed there was general
understanding in the Legislature that one OF
the three Commissioners should be Repubh-
can. Coed faith requires the appointment or
Republican and sound municipal policy renders
it necessary that tho three Commissioners
should be men of the highest character and not
politica hacks who will make partisan traffic OF
their offices. We are awaiting with curiosity
as well as anxiety the appointments which the
Mayor is expected to make very soon. Ills ac-
ton will be a good test of the sincerity OF his
pretensions as a practical rcformcr and the
people of Brooklyn will have an excellent OPP
portunity for determining from his appoint
ments whether under Democratic Mayor 1t
is possible to keep politics out OF the manage
ment Of the city's parks.
What the Democratic boss, the saloon-keep-
ers and politicians like Alderman Shevhn are
hoping for is the appointment of partisan
Board that will work" the department durng
the next six months for politics only. 1hey are
opposed to the cappontment of any kepuoh.
can Commissioner OF experience and lorcc OF
character. The presence Of an honest, capable
man in Board that was bent upon " running
the parks" for the good OF the party would IN
volve constant exposure OF Democratic trckcry
and msgovernment. Mayor Chapins political
advisers have warned him against embarrassing
the party by putting an upright, VlGilant ana
thoroughly competent Republican on guard in
the depart ment where he could watch and de-
nounce the partisanshp Of his Democratic as
sociatcs. "Put in three Democrats they have
been saying to him, land you will have no
trouble. Those three Democrats will help TO
reflect you and they will do good service Tor
the party" II remains TO be seen whether
MAYOR Chaplin will venture to follow advice
that is as short sighted as it is INSCRIPTIONS.
Mayor Chaplin is known To be an Official oil
yirtuous intentions, OF a cold and calculating
disposition and OF inOrdinatc ambitions. lie
would like 10 servo the highest interests OF tho
city, and no sets great store by friendships so
long as they are useful to him; but above all
things, no has an eye single 10 his political
prospects. II re elected Mayor Of Brooklyn, he
would be prominent candidate for Governor
in l8 OF and his future is in the hollow Of Boss
McI,aughlin's hand. lie knows this and he is
tempted to let the welfare OF Brooklyn and the
ends of good government shift for themselves.
II the Democratic gang" are down on him."
he may not be rcnominatod for Mayor, and GER
tanly will not be brought forward in due time
| as the choice of the Kings County Democracy
for Governor. II he considers it necessary to
keep on good terms with tho party managers he
will make conspcuously bad appointments t.
the recognized Park Commission.
