THE NEW MAYOR.

The reelection of Mayor Steinman,
which event characterized yesterdays
activities in Sacramento, is a verdict by
the people in favor of fair play and de-
cent politics. It did not mean that Mr..
Steinman's opponents were less respected
and esteemed as good citizens, but it does
mean that the majority of the people re-
sent the manner in which the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Knox was secured, both on
the Republican and the Democratic
tickets.
1t is notorious that neither convention
was the free representative of the peo-
pie within party lines, and assuredly
neither represented the independent and
Embossed voters of the city. One of the
greater purposes of the new charter is to
bring the government nearer to the peo-
pie, and to free it from the influences
which make politics business and pros
titute local government to purely selfish
ends. So far as the election of Mayor
Steinman goes the charter purpose in
that respect has already been given effect
iYeness. This journal had no other eX-
preston to make in the late campaign
than persistent urgency to rebuke the
boss methods, which, when successful,
give to few men a seeming power, upon
which they may trade and thrive and use
to forward purely selfish ends.
Recognizing all the candidates for the
Mayoralty as equal in good citizenship
and personal integrity it was content 20
urge to the people to vote regardless of
partisan appeals, and with an eye single
to freeing the municipality from ring
rule and boss domination. It was not
the men in candidacy. but the influences
prompting it that were on trial. The
people have decided that it is better for
their interests to select Mr.. Steinman. In
doing so they distinctly rebuked the
ward boss element.
That Mr.. Steinman will therefore hold
himself responsible to the people, and
not to any presuming political powers,
goes without saying. That he will recog-
nize that party politics had nothing what
ever to do with his election is certain.
We may therefore confidently entertain
the belief that as the executive officer of
the city under the new form of govern
ment, he will so act as viii give US the
most economic administration and the
best possible under our system; that he
will hold his Office to be trust committed
to him not for the reward of political
hirelings or the promotion of political
ambitions. but solely and only for the
discreet, impartial and economic conduct
of the business of the city.
The election of Mr.. Steinman is the
more significant from the fact that it was
accomplished without specific organiza-
ton, whereas opposed to him were quite
all the trained political workers, possess
ing party machinery and all the means
and knowledge for bringing out such a
vote as the managers desired. The verdict
ofyesterday is therefore to be looked upon
as signal victory of the voters who love
fair play and clean politics. and who re-
lied solely upon the strength of numbers
and the righteousness of their cause.
The record-union., 1893-11-08

THE American metrOpolitans as a
whole are a generous and frank people.
1t will be recalled that the citizens of New
York made a vigorous and persistent
struggle to secure the Worlds Fair. They
failed and Chicago carried off the prize.
The result all know. Now comes the
New York press and admits that the de-
cision of Congress was wise. They freely
concede that Chicago did better than New
York could possibly have done. Not
only this, but they go on to state the
reason. While New York could have
raised as much or more money than
Chicago to subsidiZe the exposition, she
could not have furnished ample grounds.
The plat needed required an area of a
thousand acres; it had TO be so located
that it could be easily approached by
numerous lines of transportation by land;
it had to be ground but very little undu-
lating, and there had to be also suffi-
cheney of pure water for the internal lakes
and water ways. There is no place in or
around New York commanding all these
requisites. say the press, though that city
could have given grounds with fine water
frontage. Morningside Park might have
been utilized, but it would have required
an enormous outlay to blast rocks, level
the ground and fit it for the purposes of
the fair. If Central Park had been used,
it would have so destroyed it that it
would have required many years to re-
store it to its proper condition. So the
New York press has the grace to say that
the great city bears no grudge, and is glad
that it did not accomplish its ambition.

him the Guatemalan guard killed Bar
rundia on the deck of the ship. The
action of the American Minister was dis
approved by our Government, but moth
ing further could be done because the
Guatemalan guard was on board by con-
sent of American authority, and fired on
the prisoner only after he had shot at the
commanding officer of the guard.
But the essential matters in the two
cases are alike. to wit: That the Ameri
can ship is American soil, and political
refugee cannot be taken therefrom; that
in the attempt to seize him the Govern
ment of Honduras has committed fla
grant act of hostility, and will therefore
unquestionably be called upon to make
reparation, to apologize and to formally
salute the stars and stripes. If the Ad-
ministration does not demand and en-
force thus much of respect for the flag
it will violate the policy of the Govern
ment regarding political refugees, and
will reverse the Barrundia case.
