lLAYnR CH1PLX,S FUTERE

NayOr Chapin having returned to Brooklyn
after an absence Of several weeks, the question
of his political future naturally attracts more or
loss attention. 1t cannot be said that the out
looll is happy one The Kings County delega-
tion TO the Saratoga Convention is pledged to
Give him a complimentary vote for the nOmina-
ton for Governor, but nobody entertMnS the
SLIGHTEST hope that he will be chosen to head
the ticket Indeed il is felt by many that 1t Is
4 great mistake to press him for the nomination
at all. in view of the mal0dorouS water scandal
which brought 50 much discrcdt upon him early
in the wear. 1t is possible that he might re-
ceive the nomination for Observation-Disclosures
if he were willing to accept it, but he has posi-
tivelv declared that he will not take the second
nlace on the ticket That brilliant future to
which some of his friends looked hopefully for
ward a few months ago appears to have faded
utterly away. Then he was to 90 from the
MAYORS chair t. the Governors, and after two
term, in Albany was to be transferred to the
highest place in the Nation. That vision, alas,
will never take material fo'm.
The only possible ray Of hope that lights up
Mr. Chapin's future is a third term in his present
ofi,e. But can the Democracy OF Brooklyn
afford 10 run MIN again llu lSi liz hAp INV
nonular on the other side Of the East River.
Ten years ago Mayor Howell had an instructive
experience which Mr.. Chaplin might study to
advantage. That "Boss" Mclaughlin remem-
her, il is altogether Likely. Mr.. Howell had
been twice elected by good mljorities, but in
1881 he was badly defeated by Seth Low.
And there had been no water scandal TO impair
Mr. Uowelrs chance of success. If Mr.. Chaplin
i allowed to run again, it will be simply with
the idea Of yndicating him. That he is in need
of vinlicadon cannot be doubted. The Rcpub-
leans If Brooklyn would welcome the issue
,vbich the nomination of Mr. Chaplin, or Of Con-
roller Jackson, who was almost As deep in the
water scandal as the Mayor, would bring about.
OF necessity that question will have place in
| ,ba coming campaign, no matter who is the
| candidate on the Democratic side. Possibly as
the Democrats must bear the brunt of it in any
case, it will be thought best to put Mayor Chaplin
into the forefront of the contest. The outlook

7HE PEPUBLlCAN PLATFORM

The highest praise that can be given to
n,atform is that it states concisely, faithfully
and impressiyely the true aims Of the party
In unusual measure this praise is due to the
Repnblican platform adopted at Rochester. 1t
is good because it is true to the convictions and
wishes of more than half million Republican
voters. 1t is good because while touching on
many subjects, it treats each cOnciSey and yet
effectively and bravely. There is not trace
Of sinking or evasion in it; the spirit OF the
Young men of the party speaks in every SEN
tcnce. No trace of faction mars its harmony (;
the Republicans of New-York proudly do honor
TO the President whom their votes elected for
his fidelity. purity, wisdom, and admirable
presentation of Republican principles in many
addresses to the Secretary of State for foreign
policv which has raised the American name TO
the highest position ever attained; to the Sec
rotary of the Navy for energy and wisdom in
creating a navy and to the present and late
Secretaries of the Treasury for financial man
agement which the business world heartily and
gratefully approves.
TIE Republican party has embodied in the
Tariff and Administrative acts its wishes re-
garding protection of industry, reciprocity with
other American nations, and removal Of un-
necessary burdens. These acts the convention
cordially commends, pointing to their benefcent
and daily increasing fruits In particular, it is
we'll said that these measures are giving to the
Nation financial independence and prosperity in
the presence Of alarm and distress abroad. With
clear comprehension the convention shows that
Protection and Reciprocity are mutually help
;u parts Of a great National policy, and that
their Joint operation will secure advantages "a
all interests.
The platform would have been untrue to the
wishes Of Republican voters if it had not spoken
frankly on the silver question in harmony with
President Harrisons recent admirable utter
