THE success Of the Democrats In New
York in gaining their case before the
Court Of Appeals and obtaining control
Of the legislative department of the
state government Is gratifying. It is
poetic justice. New York has bsen one
Of the states which was gerrymandered
for the benefit Of the Republicans. The
Democratic managers may have strained
their powers little, but not to an un-
reasonable or unwArrantable extent. 1t
Is Impossible for an impartial man to sx-
pect that they would be careful TO do
exact justice to the party which
has ref use TO redistrict the state 80 as
TO make its representation conform to
the state constitution either by the state
census or the national census. The Re-
publicans have maintained control Of the
state Legislature, refused q fair Con-
gresslonal apportionment and held the
two United States Senstorshlps in spite
of Democratic mAjorIties. ranging on an
average above 5000 votes for twenty
years. II will not be surprising If the
Democratic Legislature should take some
revenge FOE all those years Of injustics. 1t
would be astonishing II they did not The
Democrats Of New York have great
deal Of human nature. and some Of II Is
Of the FOLD boy" kind. But they have
had severe and continuous provocation.
Meantime, notwithstanding that and the
awful condemnation Of the Republicans,
lately turned reformers, they have done
nothing reprehenslbe They have the
Court Of Appeals decision back Of them
for what they are doing now.
