TAMMANY's BEST FOOT FOREMOST.

1t is a subject for congratulation that
public sentiment has forced such an ac-
Acknowledgement as the nomination Of
Mr. Straus from SO stubborn an organi-
cation as Tammany Hail. Public r,c rails
and municipal virtue are not hopeless so
long as the controlling political organi-
cation of the city can be compelled to
cater to public opinion by soing outside
of itself and selecting to head its ticket
a man of MIR. Strauss standing.
Whether this concession, which Is also
confession, Will satisfy the Popular
demand for vengeance upon Tammany's
sins the returns on election night will
tell
But whatever may be the result, the
advocates Of better and purer municipal
government will have the satisfaction
of knowing that for the time being at
least they have compelled the bosses to
put their best foot foremost.

(From to-day's Sun.l

AS The Sun has never used partisan
ship to mystfy or to deceive any mans
credulity, we are compelled to state
plainly the facts in regard to Mr.. Ma
than Straus. the candidate put up for
Mayor by Tammany Hall.
Against Mr.. Straus as an asprant for
general favor there lies the unusual
objection that he has already, as a city
officer, proved himself unfit for public
office: and we cannot advise that the
highest place in the gift of the city
should be conferred upon any man
when the cltys affairs would manifestly
be benefited by his retirement from
lesser public trust which he exercises
now. And this presents precisely and
accurately the status and qualifications
of Mr.. Straus.
We must protest, also, against the
presentation to this community of a
candidate for an office of the first i'm
portance and dignity, on the strength
of his ostentatious charities. In itself,
charity coupled with wisdom is worthy
of all praise; but when 1t is pushed into
politics as draft to be honored by
the reward OF public office. II becomes
offensive. Every official must first pay
honorably for his place by his services
to the public life OF his party, or Of the
community; but no one can pay in
money or in gifts, and leave his candi-
dacy either commendable or defensible.
We regret extremely, therefore, our
obligation OF entire simplicity and i'm
erativeness to say that we can see in
the venture of offering such a candidate,
on grounds new In New York politics,
no worthy element whatsoever.

Another Way of Looking at 1t.

To tho Editor;
There is a proverb which says Washing hogs
is waste OF soap" but should like to waste
enough " soap to remind those people who assert
that " business is a warfare" that the commerce
OF a nation in actual is the first object OF at
tack on the one hand and defense on the other. To
protect their own and destroy their enemys, every
civilized nation builds and maintains at enormous
expense great ornaments OF fast cruisers and de-
structive guns; and that any one not personally
interested IL fleeing the people can honestly be-
lieve that to destroy a nations own commerce by
law can bench. 1t is to me incomprehensible 1t
is as II the State of New York we're to prohibit
the importation OF Florida oranges because some
poor little wretch in Brooklyn was trying to grow
