OH, NO. COMMODORE!

Commodore Gerry made an address
yesterday before the Convention OF the
Humane Societies OF the State, at AL
bany. In which he advocated the re-
introduction OF whipping posts in the
State as a means OF punishment, rec
ommending their use especially in the
cases OF persons found guilty OF cruelty
to children.
No offense can be committed more re-
voting to humanity than that OF the
cruel treatment OF a child. No man
or woman in the community could feel
the slightest pity for person con-
victed OF such crime, however Sc
we're his punishment might be. But the
whipping-post is thing of the past,
and the people have thorough con-
tempt for the few benighted local.
ties where II Is still to be found. 1t
ranks with the tortures OF the Inquisi-
ton. the thumbscrew. the iron boot
and the rack. 1t is relic OF bar
barism, as degrading to those who
infiict the penalty as to those who
suffer IT.
The laws against cruelty to children
cannot be made too stringent. The
punishment for the revolving crime
cannot well be too severe. The Legis-
lature should use Its best efforts to
stamp 1t out.
But no whipping-post, Commodore
No legalized Brockwayism to disgrace
the State, disgust the people and de-
| grade human nature.

NOT HIGH ENOUGH UP.

The session OF the Lexow Committee
yesterday was one OF dramatic interest.

she was prosecuted because she refused
to pay blackmail to the police, and whose
children were taken from her and com
mitted to the care OF the Gerry Society.
created a scene by begging for her chill
dren TO be restored to her and imprint
ing klsse, on Lawyer Moss's hand.
Officer Hussey. against whom several
charges OF attempted extortion have
been made, added to the excitement by
abusing a witness in the Committees
room. Four men swore that he threat
ened to shoot the man. He swore that
he didn't
These scenes are very sensational and
certainly show a very bad condition OF
affairs and much rascalty on the part of
the men charged with the alleged Of
lenses. But the accused are individual
members OF the force who seem to have
INDUCED In crooked practices on their
own account.
Now, the people would like to see the
Committee go higher. They have been
told that the corruption undergoing ox-
posture reaches to the heads OF the PO-
lice Department. II this Is true, why not
prove the fact at once? 1t is very near
election time. and 1t is desirable that the
| extent OF the evil should be known before
the electors are called upon to cast their
| ballots for municipal officers.
Come, Mr.. Goff. forego dramatic SEN
sations for awhile. and go higher. That
is what the people want. and that is
what you ought to give them.

LEVI PHoNoGRAPH NOR TON.

Some surprise is expressed at the
Mandy PANTY. colorless. commonplace
remarks of Candidate Morton yester-
day TO the Committee that informed him
officially OF his nomination. or course.
the information was mere matter OF
form, as Mr. Morton had been told of
his selection by Mr.. Plat and had
accepted long before the delegates TO the
Republican nominating convention were
chosen. But he knew OF the Commit
tees visit in advance. and IT was eX-
pected that he would have had prepared
some sort of fitting speech for the &C.
casion.
But why should any surprise be ex-
pressed at Mr.. MortOn's twaddle? He
did not have Plat at his elbow as a
prompter, and he did not know what
to say. But he promised to write his
acceptance in the form OF a letter and
this will be prepared for him by Boss
Plat. Then Levi Photograph Morton
will convey to the people Boss Platt's
sentiments in proper form.

A NEW BOSS.

Gen. Kerwin, the new Republican
Police Commissioner. is now the head
OF a political organization. In a small
way he is a party boss"
The Generals friends have been acting
with the Milholland Republicans. But
they have become dissatisfied with Mil
holland as a leader and have kicked out
OF the traces. Last night they met in
the small hall OF Cooper Union and
organized as a separate and distinct
party. electing Gen. Kerwin as their
President.
The principal evil OF the Police De-
partment has been its association with
politics or with political organizations.
When Gen. Kerwin was made a Com
missioner It was with the intention 10
make the Police Board non-partisan.
Now Gen Kerwin will have his end OF
the political see-saw TO keep up and the
heeiers OF his new organization to take
care OF and reward.
