rhe Contest Between Germans and Aus
trians Watched With Interest.
BERLIN, Oct. 3.-In the long distance
ride between Berlin and Vienna, Lieu
tenant Meyer and Lieutenant Hohen-
burg passed Nimburg, Bohemia. last
night. This is just half way to Vienna
200 miles-and was covered in 35
hours. At that point they met the first
of the Austrian officers, riding from
Vienna to Berlin. There is much inter.
est in the competition, and large sume
have been wagered on the result.
Lieutenant Miklos passed Bauzen this
m ,rning, after riding 30 hours and cover.
ing 447 kilometers. 1t is expected that
he will reach Berlin early tomorrow.
The last Of the German riders starte
this morning. Altogether there are 1Os
Germans in the race. OF the horses
taking part, nine ara English thorough.
breds, fourteen English halfbreeds. five
hungarian, one Russian and the rest
are Prussian horses. Up to the present
time only scant reports have be, re.

THE SPECIAL TRoT
Was the closing race of the day, and,
while not race to the liking of those
who like protracted, torturing strug-
gle, was as fine race as l have seen in
years, for the class Of horses engaged,
for out of the elk entries only one had
got into the 2 80 list in 1891 and the
other five were not in the least afraid of
him. Their records up to the end of
last year were 2:30 each for Ben Corbett
and Bob Mason. Jr., 2:30% for Tono,
2:3l1 Riceya, and 2 "a tor Thera. That
this field of horses should 60 out and
the slowest but one of the whole five
plug in three heats all below 2 :25, after
having all the rest combined against
her, speaks volumes for our good horses
and equally good track. The pools be-
fore starting were OF fip-fop order, as
NAV be seen by the following scale of
prices:

AN ECHO OF THE PAST.

We had an example very few years
ago of the effect of the ward bosses and
bulldozers joining decent ranks. They
came out with rush for the anti-boss
ticket, and before they could be cast out
the election was at hand. What hap
pened? To the astonishment of the peo-
pie, the lowest form of the boss element,
that everybody supposed had been
downed, came serenely to the top; it
walked into position and it has kept ii
ever since; the elected officers fell over
each other to do these go-betweens OF
secret influences they serve for coin alb
ject obeisance. The one thing we fear to-
day of all others is that these same trick
sters and slippery customers will give
out that really they are for Mclaughlin
and Rodgers. Heaven help those gentle
men if that should happen.

WHERE TO STAND.

In the selection of Trustee and Chief OF
Police all good citizens should investigate
carefully for themselves. The RECORD
UNION does not wish to be considered as
attempting to dictate to anyone.
Lett be understood that the position OF
this paper is directly in line with and
consistent with its old fight against boss
ism, and for which it has taken all man
ner of punishment from the rings. II
| expects the bosses to fight it; it expects
some good citizens to differ with it until
they understand clearly that this paper
stands to-day where it has uniformly
against uncleanliness and ring rule in
city government, and for the men such
influences oppose.
The REooRD-UNIoN, believing that
city government ought to be divorced
from politics, is, in common with all
| others, to choose between candidates now
presented. In doing so it looks behind
the men for the forces promoting their
candidacy, and wholly ignores their
political affiliations. 1t sees the fine
Italian hand of the boss pushing Mr..
Green and Mr.. Higgins to the front, lay
ing the plan of their campaign, pledging,
promising and trading in their interest
making, indeed, mere puppets of them.
In opposition. it finds an experienced
man candidate for Trustee; one who
has opinions, back bone and courage; a
man whose position can always be
known and relied upon; one the bosses and
rings and conscienceless ward strikers
and manipulators, the friends of dives,
of them, fear and hate.
! 1t finds man presented for Chief OF
of Police free from entanglements, de-
spised and ridiculed by the bosses; man
of clean life, an unspotted record, coura-
geous, without boss collar, and in no
leading strings.
For these men, as against the others,
the RECoRD-UNIoN believes that good
citizens should vote and be consistent
with their demand for embarrassed Off
cials.
1t is safe to do precisely the opposite OF
that the common enemy desires. The
RECoRD-UNIoN is content to be abused
by the bosses and the small political fry.
1t would esteem their Endorsement sufi-
cient cause to warrant distrust of its
course. Let friends Of Embossed admin
istration concentrate upon the two men
who alone can down the bosses. Divide
and scatter the strength of the opposition
to spoilsmen, and the latter will win.

news of varied character. The news of
the State and the world, the comprehep-
sive, all-interesting matters that COM
mand the general consideration is of a
wholly different class. But as to what is
news and what is not to his clientage, the
newspaper publisher must alone be the
judge.
While the unthinking people who de-
sire "a chrome" with every purchase
they make are the bane of life to many
business men, they are angels of mercy
compared with that other class which
seeks to comfort purely personal matters
into such forms that the plea of ''news'
can be urged upon the newspaper mana
| ger, to secure publication of matters in
which the public has no concern what
ever. There is correspondent class,
very excellent people otherwise who beg
gratuity from the newspaper, on the plea
of the worthiness of their cause, though
its virtues are confined to one person or
to the very limited circle of a private
group. These good people are possessed
of the idea that the office of the news
paper is to promote all such things, and
that the publisher should foot the inevita-
BILE bill of cost.
There is to be excepted from all these
classifications the purely and wholly pub
llc schemes, enterprises and concerns the
doings and the successes or failures of
which affect for good or i'll the whole COM
munity, and which are not promoted for
private gain or preferment-the gen
timely philanthropic, educational, elevat-
ing, reformatory and public-spirited
works in which communities engage for
the common good, and in which common
benefit the newspaper shares equally
with all others of the social organization
we term community or State.
In these directions the newspaper of the
day does all, and more than its share; it
is liberal to the extent of prodigality to
all such; it gives of it's substance, as
rule, three-fold morein proportion, for the
advancement OF good works than any
others contribute in coin or labor. In the
performance of such good offices it atones
for very much, if not all its errors, and
the consciousness that this is true enables
it to endure with surprising patience and
forbearance the constant assault of people
who solicit from it something for nothing,
and without the shadow of justification.

ernment is required to take notice. It
has been complained by the police of the
great cities that the number of cracks
men, thieves and criminals from Great
Britain in the United States has surpris-
Ingly increased in the last decade, and
the immigration inspectors all agree that
1t is exceedingly difficult to ascertain and
stop the landing Of the English criminals.
We apprehend that when our Govern
ment enters sharp protest in this mat
ter it viii be needed. For the British
Government cannot reply upon the basis
OF any claim of right to send US Govern
ment-aided classes that we-who are the
sole judges-deem Objectionable elements
in our population.

The appointment Of Hon. Joseph Nc
Kenna of this congressional district to
the Federal bench confers high honor
upon our Congressman, and very nat
urally makes the people of this district
proud of their judgment in selecting him
as their Representative. Mr.. McKenna
will have the congratulations of the en-
tire district. That he will make a good
record upon the Circuit bench is the be-
lief of the people with whom he has been
so long and pleasantly associated in
political relation. Just at this time it is
matter of deep regret that the district is
to be deprived Of his services in Con-
gress. He knows the needs of the district
thoroughly, and his experience in the
House is of the highest value to it. Sac
ramentans will be disappointed, because
they had hoped Judge w. @. Van Fleet
would receive the appointment, but they
will have the consolation of knowing
that there will remain upon the bench
here an honest, fearless and upright
Judge, who is loved, honored and re-
spected by the entire community.

WORDS TO THE THOUGHTFUL.


The better element of citizenship is di-
vided to-day between Croly and Nc
Laughlin for Trustee. Mr.. Croly cannot
be elected-on all sides that is admitted.
The choice then is between Green and
Mclaughlin. The one was nominated
by the boss element; he may not believe
it; he has probably had the wool pulled
over his eyes, not difficult thing to do
with a man past middle life who has
never had to deal with the shrewd and
cunning bosses and boss lieutenants.
They are for him to-day as they were in
the convention.
1t comes to this then, a vote for Croly is
vote for Green practically, and vote
directly in the play of the boss element
that fattens on Chinatown vices, lives by
political trading, prospers by promotion
of the dives, grows pompous and impu-
dent upon the reputation ofhaving power
to swing votes and manipulate deIega-
tons.
There is just one way and only one way
to down the fellows who are pulling the
wires, and that is to elect the men they
oppose, to defeat the two candidates for
whom they crack the party whip, to
grapple with the men who have put up
dummies to draw votes from Nc
Laughlin and have fiattered half-dozen
independent candidates into the field to
weaken the strength of Rodgers, whom
they can neither coax nor intimidate.

SHIPPING CONVICTS TO THE
UNITED STATES.

The Commission on European Immi-
grafton into the United States has filed its
report with the Secretary Of the Treasury.
In one section of the report the commits
sion charges that there is systematic
landing upon our shores of convicts from
Great Britain, and there is positive proof
that from England, Ireland and Scotland,
in the last eleven years, there has been
systematized, widespread and thoroughly
organized movement, known to and en-
couraged by the Government of sending
convicts and ex-convicts to the United
States. The commission charges that
''the passage and money to keep them
while seeking employment here are fur
nished directly by the Government of
Great Britain, expended through dis
charged prisoners aid societies. which
are provided for by AN Act for the more
effective prevention of crime,' passed
August 2l, 1871, and the amendments
thereto; and by this systematic deporta-
ton of convicts and ex-convicts the num-
bers under surveillance have been re-
duced from 20 900 in 1870 to 1000 in 1891. -
This is the most explicit and direct
statement ever made to our Government
upon the subject. 1t is official, submitted
by body fully aware of its Importance,
and alive to the consequences of inaccu-
racy. 1t is statement in such form as
to justify diplomatic inquiry by the De-
partment of State, addressed to the Brit
ish Government through its Ministerial
representative. We cannot think that
the department will neglect to make it.
If the English Government is lending
its aid to the shipment of its convicts to
these shores. it must be notified that such
action is an affront, and one that cannot
be tolerated. 1t is an act of ungracious
character, and one that if continued after
entry Of our protest, would become un-
friendly and justify severe measures.
Great Britain has no right to make the
United States an English penal colony in
any degree; it has no right to ship to us
classes distinctly rated in our laws as in
competent and Objectionable and not to
be admitted. 1t has full knowledge of
these laws, and hence its avoidance and
violation of them proceeds upon the
doctrine that no offense is given until
the United States Government takes
official notice and enters its protest. 1t is
true that silence on our part is quasi
acquiescence. Merely rejecting such as
we discover at the immigration ports is
not matter of which the British Gov
