Thomas Lewis, man in the employ of

La Blanche, the Marine, states positively

that it is to their interest to more conserve
economic disbursements. But as matter
of fact extravaganza of expenditure in
citv government is a heavier burden upon
the poor than upon the rich man, because
the poor suffer most from waste and are
least able to bear it. Moreover to give to
the rich the controlling voice, besides
creating caste, would tend to favor the
wealthy sections of city and degrade the
poorer. General and equal administra-
ton secures to all sections equal advan-
tages, except where wealth controls party
activity, and party rules the city. 1t fol-
lows, therefore, that while party elimina-
ton from city government is in the in
terest of economic government, property
qualification in determining the power to
order public Improvements would be not
only unAmerican, but would tend to
create class distinctions that would be
more dangerous than party contention in
a municipality, since political parties at
least recognize no aristocracy at the polls.
We believe with the Pittsburg Commercial
Gazette, that while politics should be d.
vorced from city government, it would
give US a more deplorable state of affairs
to substitute property qualification in all
matters calling for the exercise OF power
to expend public funds.
Most of those who hold Office in our municipal
tiles are property owners, and yet II their acts
and votes were closely watched it would be
found that they are as liable to err on the SIDE
of extravaganza and jobbery as those who own
no realty. This Is not difficult to understand,
The whole trouble lies in making city govern
ment q matter of politics rather than of bust
ness. Those in power wish to keep in, and in
of those who control ward politics council
man may pay taxes on good round assessment,
but his political interest in a certain measure
may greatly outweigh his property interest, and
he can not be relied on to guard the rights OF
his fellow property-Owners against Joboery and
extravaganza. Whatever may be said in favor
of the proposition, however, il is not likely to be
adopted The suffrage may be TOO widely ex-
tended but to disqualify non-property owners
from taking part in municipal elections would
be highly Objectionable discrimination against
a class that is quite as much interested in good
government as any other, and that bears its
equal proportion of all taxation. The man who
pays rent helps to pay the taxes of his landlord
and the fact that he owns no houses or lots does
not relieve him of the effects of extravaganza in
city government,

THE Tammany Democrats in New York
are determined to break down the new re-
form ballot law of that State, if possible.
For instance they contend that physical
inability" as mentioned in the law, may
lawfully be construed as inability to read
or write, and that voters so incapacitated
may take friend into the voting
with them. OF course if that is done
there will always be just such vote as
Tammany desires, since enough purchased
voters will claim to be illiterates in each
precinct to sway the result as the bosses
may desire. By just what process of reason
ing they manage to make illiteracy physical
disability, we cannot conceive. 1t is not
likely, however, that the law officers of the
Empire State will submit to any such in.
terpretion of the law as the Tammanyites
demand. A contest will, of course follow,
and by legal contention it will be at
tempted to disgust the people with the
law. We have an abiding faith, however,
in the vital energy of the new law, and in
the good sense and the love of fair play
characteristic of the American people.
They will not permit system to be
downed that provides only for the protec
ton of the honest voters right to cast a
ballot unscrutinized by any but himself

THE Stockton Mail goes wild over the
assertion of belief by the REcoRD-UNIoN
that the Democracy is DESTROYS of impress
ing voters with the idea that by removal
from one precinct to another within thirty
days of the election, does not disqualify
the voter. We have said that we believed
this false idea was advocated in order to
mislead voters of Republican faith. The
Nail thinks this violent and unwarranted
assumption We should be glad to think
so too. But Will the Mail explain why it
is that the Eraminer, claiming to be
the exponent of Democratic policy in Cal
ifornia, casts discredit upon the decision
of the Supreme Court, which afirms that
the removal indicated does disqualify the
voter? If the Democratic party does not
wish to break down the Interpretation OF
the law by the Supreme Court, why does
its principal organ insist that the Court is
in error-indeed, contend that it has not
decided the question at all, and that its
reference to the matter in the San Diego
case is merely dictum?

The dispatches again assert that driving
out of the Jews is going on in Russia, and
that the old prosecuting edicts have been
revived against them. We may receive
these statements with good deal of sus-
picion. Our Minister at St. Petersburg,
Charles Emory Smith, not long ago in a
letter to Rabbi Morals stated that the
story of the revival of persecution and
the tales of cruelty to Jews were baseless.
Following upon the letter came the decla-
ration of the Home Secretary that his
Government had not even contemplated
such action as is charged. 1t Is probably
! true, however, that in some of the remoter
districts local regulations have been revived
that bear heavily upon the Hebrews, and
that the bitter prejudices of the Russian
peasantry have taken the shape of indig-
mites and prosecutions. For these things
the Imperial Government cannot be held
wholly responsible, but if it should fail to
take steps to check the local outrages it
would be blameworthy. Some weeks ago
the Lord Mayor of London, himself a
Jew, put stop to the activity that was
stirring London to have mass meeting
held to protest against the suppose action
| of the Russian Government. He did this
because he became convinced that the I'M
perial Government had not issued the
DEGREES charged against it. A meeting
was held, however, but had not his sane
ton. Russia when in need of money is
| forced to 60 to the Jewish bankers to
secure advances upon her securities, and
she has therefore positive interest in
retaining their friendship. To begin anew
the persecution of the Jews would be to
close the doors of every Jewish banking
house in Europe against the Gar. Indeed,
it is freely charged that the stories of the
alleged recent prosecutions were started by
the enemies of Russia for the very purpose
of preventing her from pledging her Sc
curities with Jewish money-lenders, and
at the very moment when the Gar was in
need of large ready sums to equip his
armies anew, in view of the possible re-
vival of contention over the Balkan ques-
| ton.

fornia Convention. 1t would be delight
full spectacle to see the old hunkers hoored
by such method of determining the real
will of a deGberative body. We can
imagine how it would confuse the silver
tongued and render the "change-artist'
wild with despair. We can fancy the del.
egation leaders attempting to hypnotic
the timid men under such rule. We can
see the utter hopelessness of expression
that would settle down upon the counte-
nances of the bosses when once the march
to the ballot boxes began. They would
have no use for lieutenants in such case
messenger service would be at discount
under such rule, and orders would go
out to delegations with the absolute GER
tainty that the delegates could obey or re-
bel, just as they might choose, and that by
no possible means could the boss punish
the rebellious. Really, the idea of the
secret ballot promises to be the regenerat-
ing agency in American politics, and to
give us new birth that will have written
upon its brow, independence"
