TIE POLICE IN THIS ELECTION.

No one need to be told that the police of
this city can exercise prodigiOus influence in
municipal elections. The Commissioners, the
Superintendent, the inspectors, the captains,
the sergeants, the roundsmen and the patrol.
men can bring to their own way Of thinking
and action in political campaign many thou
sands OF voters. Just bear in mind how great
is the number of liquor-dealers who make a
constant practice of violating the Excise law.
OF course, we all know that these violations
in most cases are practically winked at. There
is no necessity of argument or exposition to
explain that an ever-watchful, prying, peer.
ing patrolman, roundsman or sergeant can
make existence absolutely uncomfortable to law
breaking liqior-sellcr. Take the keepers of
vicious resorts of all kinds. Take every class,
degree and division OF violators of the statutes.
Over every one of these the police can exercise
a power by intimidation, or even by an in
imation that will be understood as threat,
which will find expression and result at the
polls. Of the peaceful and orderly citizens of
New.Yor1 also great numbers stand ready to
follow the guidance and direction of their
friends, associates and advisers on the police
force II it were needful, columns might be
used IN detailing the methods by which the
Police Department can secure votes at elections.

TIE SIGNIFICANCE OF THE REGISTRA-
TON.

The registration of the voters OF the State
Il one of the straws which indicate pretty
plainly which way the wind is going to blow
on the lth of November. And this straw war
rants the assurance that the wind is going to
blow in the Republican direction. and that it
will prove but an ill wind for the Democrats. An
examination of the registration lists shows that
in this city and Brooklyn, and also in the cities
of the interior of the State. the Republicans
have registered larger share OF the total vote
than the Democrats, 30 that if the voting CORE
spends to the registering, as 1t Is likely to 40,
the Democrats may be good second, but the
Republicans, both below and above Harlem
Bridge will be the winners.
1t is not difficult to understand why the
Democratic side of the list has fallen off in AL
bany and Troy and other cities of the interior.
The new law as was pointed out in the letter
from Albany which was printed yesterday, by
its provision requiring personal registration. has
banished from the voting rolls large number
of bogus names upon which re6eaters were ac-
customed to vote. So, in advance of Election
Day, ballot reform, as enacted by the last Re-
publican Legislature, Tndicates itself by
battling the repeaters and those who profit by
their nefarous work. That the industry" Of
repeating had assumed alarming proportions
in Troy was made clear by the testimony elicit
ed before the Senate Committee on Privileges
and Elections last winter. A few years ago
the Republicans elected their candidate for
Mayor in Albany, but he was counted out. lie
went to the courts and was awarded his seat,
and the subsequent investigation proved that
when it came to repeating, the Democracy OF
Albany was as energetic and inscriptions as
the Democracy of Troy. Of course, the new
law has not eradicated the evil in these or in
the other cities of the interior there doubtless
have been a good many fraudulent regstra-
tions. But the snake is rather more than
scotched even if it is not killed. The result in
| this city Is rendered encouraging from the fact
that the registration is heaviest in what
are recognized as the distinctively Anti-Tam-
many districts.
In the circumstances the Republicans here
and throughout the State may well 90 forward
| to the end of the campaign nerved to do their
hest by the consciousness that they are going
| to win. All signs are in their favor Hard
work for few days more will render it i'm
possible for the Democrats to defeat us. The
tide is with us. This is Republican year in
the Empire State.

RTSN1RCK AND MOLTKE.

Count Won MOltkes aurelS 90 not suHer
Prince Bismarck to sleep. The young LIN
peror, in showerng honors upon the oonqueror
of Koeniggraetz and Sedan, has neglected the
restless sage of Varzin, whose pen was mlghtler
even than the victorious sword in shaping the
destinies of Germany. Excuses are rendered
for the Princes absence from the banquets and
military fetes in Berlin: but suspicion IS
aroused that he was deliberately sighted by
the Court Certainly the Emperor would have
honored his house and established a reputation
for magnanimity if he had admitted the old
diplomatist to rghtful share of the trib-
ute paid to the noble veteran. Imperial
gratitude shown to the soldier ought not to
have involved a semblance of ingratitude to
the master-statesman, who is now in retire.
ment after long life spent in the service OF
the Crown. Bismarck was so intimately asso-
ciated with Moltke in the creative work OF the
FIRST Kaiser's memorable reign that his absence
from the military revels at Berlin ought to
have been prevented by timely display OF
magnanimity on the part of the sovereign.
The signal office which William rendered
TO Prussia and Germany during his epoch max
ing reign was the employment in the service
Of the State of two men who were emnently
qualified for the task of completing the work
of Frederick the Great. There were diplo-
matists and soldiers Of greater experience and
superior pretensons, but the Emperor had the
rare talent of discerning force of character
and measuring Alright the precise stature of
men of genius; and with unerring Judgment he
selected Bismarck and Moltke, one to hold the
pen and the other to WELD the sword of the
future Empire. All his other service to the
country patriotic and loyal as it was. was in
significant in comparison with the sagacity dis
closed by the choice OF these two chief agents
in effecting the overthrow of Austria and
France. and the reorganization OF Germany
under prussian leadership.
The first Kaiser is In his grave, but the
veteran warrior and the master dipomatist OF
Europe still remain in the Germany which they
rather than kings or princes were instrumental
in making. The second William paid poor
tribute to bis grandfather's memory when he
separated those who had labored together in
the Cabinet and in the field for the welfare
and glory of the Empire. bismarck may have
proved an unmanageable Chancellor during the
present reign, but he has been always q King
man devoted TO the Prussian Grown, and his
work in the heroic period of the creation Of q
new Germany in q new Continent surpasses in
magnitude that OF any OF European since

nal elections year after year with the pressure
which they can bring 10 bear. But in New.
Yo,, there has been no serious scandal Of this

been the ympathies of its members, they have
not sought, a. q rule, to bring about the cleo
ton of the candidates whom they favor through
any ilegtimate influences or menaces.
Although Mayor Grant has committed the
apualling blunder Of making the Police Board
nartisan, we cannot believe that the Depart
meryt will in any way bring discredit upon ito
excellent record. The cir Is full Of reports that
Tsmmany Is to employ this week and next
woek every agency which the Police Depart
mant can furnish In order to elect Mayor
Grant and his associates on the Tammany
ticket This seems incredible. We 90 not
believe these r1mors. Il cannot be that the
rammany majority in the Police Board would
stoop to such infamy. We are not prepared to
accept any such odous stories. 1t would re-
mlire overwhelming evidence to oonHnce US
that the Commissioners, or that any OF the
Commissioners, the inspectors or the captains,
or even any large body of their subordinates,
could so affront every principle OF deoency and
honor The first and greatest duty OF every
person in any way connected with the Police
Department is to keep his hands off in political
campaigns so far as efforts to influence votes
are concerned. Disastrous indeed, would be
the overthrow, irrctrievable the catastrophe, to
any political faction in NewYork which in
these days would dare to attempt to prostitute
the Police Department to shameless partisan ad-
vantage. We expect with confidence that our
New-Yorl policemen, both officers and men,
will keep their honor rntarnished

The Christian League Of this city is doing o
praiseworthy thing in arousing public interest in
the movement in behalf Of police matrons. The
Police Commissioners with the exception OF Mr..
MacLean. have refused to take the first step In
the matter and now another appeal must he
made to the Legislature. There is every hkeli-
hood that such appeal will not be in vain, the
Legislature last winter having amended the law
in accordance with the wishes Of the advocates
~ the reform. 1t should never be forgotten
that Governor Hill alone is responsible for the
defeat of the amendment. His veto was based
On the absurd notion that the police officials
who had refused to appoint matrons ought to
have another chance. Having seen what they
have done-or not done-wth the chance I've gave
them. he can hardly be so short-sghted as TO
veto q similar bill at the coming session.

Republican policy at present. For IN the strong
Iioht which Mr.. Blaine casts on the subject 1t is
seen that reciprocity is only further and
broader form of protecting home industry,
,,.;no IN that end retention or remission OF
duties which have no protective value, ana
thereby securing larger markets TOR American
PRODUCTS and larger demands for American
i.hor. Il IL a striking feature OF Mr.. Blaine's
sneech that he shows how absolute free trade
would entirely fail to gain the desired trade
with South America. Brazil buys scarcely any
thing from this country and lets nothing IN
free how would it help toward removal OF re-
strictions there If this country should open It's
ports to all the world?
But this Nation has the power whenever it is
ready to remit duties which are not for pro-
lection, to make them the basis OF exchange
with South American countries and that Is the
policy which Mr.. Blaine has urged and the Ne
publican party has adopted IL 1t gains much,
or If it gains little, In additional foreign de-
mand for American products, it Is so much
added to the protection which first secures the
home market for the industries which the
Nation wishes to develop. Entirely united in
this policy; as it has been in unfolding the
principles of Protection, the Republican party
asks the country to sustain Its great measures
until their practical value can be demonstrated
by results Without confidence that the people
will maintain this broad National policy, there
must be less prospect that its best results can
be realized, either in negotiation with foreign
countries, or in the development of industries
at home.
The contest draws toward close with signs OF
encouragement. Major Mckinley has hard fight
against shameless gerrymander, but it is plain
that his opponents are growing less confident
In some Western States there Is a stampede OF
farmers to the Republican party, because they
are convinced that its solid work for their in
terest is worth more than the professions OF
Democratic tricksters in the farmers organiza-
tons. At the East the reviving activity OF
manufactures is beginning to produce its legiti-
mate effect. A week hence, if the people are
as sensible and practical as they have been at
other times of trial, the election OF another Re-
publican Congress will serve notice that the
new tariff is not to be disturbed until 1t has
been fairly tested.
