BRooKLYN's %EMP

The people OF Brooklyn are certainly
to be congratulated on the complete
revolution that has taken place In their
municipal government. Whatever ex-
cuses may be made for Mayor Body,
his administration has been marked by
unusual corruption. II he has been per-
sonally honest he has, at least, deserved
censure for the license he has given TO
the INSCRIPTIONS men he has had around
him. and the scandals attaching to the
municipal government since he has been
Mayor have been numerous and dis
graceful.
The ring made some effort to stem the
tide Of public opinion which was setting
so strongly against the admins
tration by throwing overheard
the old Aldermen. But It was
evident to everybody that the hand OF
the boss still held the city in its grasp,
and the complete overthrow of the ma
chine candidate followed.
In Brooklyn. as in the State. the result
has not been a Democratic defeat and
a Republican victory. New York is still
Democratic. Brooklyn Is still Democratic
In the State and in our sister city
the victory has been won by honest anc
sincere Democrats over those who have
injured the party by Objectionable meth
DDS and bad nominations. Democracy
will be all the stronger in the future from
the publication 1t has received and from
! the proofs It's adherents have given of
determination to promote good govern
ment and TO put only honest men Int
positions of public trust.

Was JACKSON A SUICIDE?
His Body Found in the Shrubbery
at Jerome Park.
He Was q Prosperous Man, Without
Apparent Troubles.

The body of the man found In the
s%hrubbery at jerome Park yesterday af-
ternoon by Policeman Battle has been
removed to the Harlem Morgue. 1t Is
supposed to be that of william 7. Jack
son, twenty-elght years old, who was
engaged In the stationery jobbing bust
ness, and had an office at 6 Elm street.
There were no marks found upon the
body to indicate violence, but the face
was badly d!scolored, which, the morgu
officials seem to think, indicates that
death vas due to poison.
Jackson's office was in Ralph Fore
mans wood turning establishment, at the
address given. and he lived in Brooklyn
with Joseph Sloan, who is employed In
Donaldson Brothers printing and lith-
%ographing estau lishment, at o. Park
street, this city. He was married and,
according &c his friends, had no known
love acknowledgements or business troubles
Mr.. Sloan. who has known Jackson Tor
a number OF years; and was perhaps his
most intimate friend, cannot believe II a
case of death by poison.
jackson said Mr.. Sloan to an Even
Ing World' reporter this morning, could
have had no motive for desiring to end
his life. lie did q good business ana was
always happy. He VAS too busy "A man
60 get mixed up in any love affair, and
besides was scrupulously honest, and
could not have got into trouble through
any dishonest act
MIR. Sloan will endeavor TO find the
parents OF his dead friend, but In the
event of his failure to do 30 he Will
give the body decent burial.
Mr.. Foreman, who was also well ac'
uuainted with jackson, is inclined to the
belief that the man committed suicide
by taking morphine.
Last Friday afternoon says Mr.
Foreman, " just after his reutrn from
a weeks visit to Baltimore, jackson
and several others were discussing the
easiest and quickest way of ending ones
life. jackson introduced the subject
Morphine, he said, would be his way
because 1t was speedy and painless, II
the body Is that OF Jackson, and l he
lieve II is, for the description tallies will
his appearance to a minimum, | an
satisfied that he died from morphine
taken with suicidal intent"
Jackson was N the habit of s0endinE
sundays and holidays with friends a
Kingsbridge. He left his office Monday
night and did not return Tuesday. 1t Is
believed he went to kingsbrldge, calleC
on his friends and then went to thu
Park and took a fatal dose OF poison.
In mis- pockets were found "A memo,
randum book with his name inscribed or
the cover, two photographs OF a younl
woman, some poetic excerpts, a knife
and a little change.
