arrest OF two OF the combatants. but
there Is nothing to show that the prison

out that there was a riot In Rutgers

to work with their clubs on the heads OF

There seems to have been altogether
too much haste on the part Of the police

were told that fact. but as those who
made the statement did not have the
permit, which WAS In the possession OF

of inquiry by the Superintendent. This

Dr. Parkhurst has done such good
work In exposing vice and immortality.

that the criticism Is undeserved. He
argues that the inquiry is properly con
fined to the lower strata of municipal
affairs" because 1t shows "the poor and
oppressed classes that the virus has
penetrated to the very interior of our
municipal life"
But no classes, neither the rich and
powerful nor the poor and oppressed,
need further proof to assure them that
blackmail Is levied by members of the
police force; that many officers receive
consideration for shutting their eyes to
violations Of the law; that policemen ac-
cept tips" to keep clear of the side
doors of saloons on Sundays: that mer-
chants who obstruct the sidewalks pay
consideration to the pitrolmen on the
beat to take no notice of the violation
OF the city ordinances and that peddlers
and push-cart dealers are made to con
tribute their mite to the private purse of
the force. What they want to know and
what they have n right to know IL.

TAMMANY's BEST FOOT FOREMOST.

1t is subject for congratulation that
public sentiment has forced such an ac-
know,e 1gment as the nomination OF
MIR. Straus from 80 stubborn an organi-
cation as Tammany Hall. Public rae rails
and municipal virtue are not hopeless so
long as the controlling political orBani-
zation OF the city can be compelled to
cater to public opinion by koing outside
OF itself and selecting to mead its ticket
ii man of Mr. Strauss standing.
Whether this concession. which IL also
confession. will satisfy the Popular
demand for vengeance upon Tammany's
sins the returns on election night will
tell.
But whatever may he 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.

GETTING SQUARE WITH sTRAUs
Avenging Grievances of His Son
Paul, who Resigned from Park
Board because Mr.. straus
wouldn't Let Him Have
His own Why.


For two or three days the weight OF
sentiment had been in favor of Nathan
Straus for Mayor. But it was not with
out opposition. and the greatest opposi-
tion came from Charles A. Dana, the
father OF ex-Park Commissioner Paul
Dana. Mr.. Danas troubles as Park
Commissioner are fresh in the public
mind. Mr.. Straus and he were opposed
on most questions concerning the public
parks, and their quarrel became bitter
and personal. 1t was said at Tammany
Hall last night that the elder Dana
waited upon Mayor Gilroy and strongly
urged that Mr.. Straus be not nominated.
1t was said that Mr.. Dana urged his
many services to Tammany Hall for
which he had asked no favors, and had
had none except the appointment of his
son to the unsalaried office of Park Com
missioner. 1t was also said that Mr..
Dana intimated that he would not sup
port Straus If nominated.

AS The Sun has never. used PARTISAN
ship to mystify or to deceive any man $
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 aspirant for
general favor there lies the unusual
objection that he has already, as a city
officer, proved himself UNIT 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 city's affairs would manifestly
be benefited by his retirement from u
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 a draft to be honored by
the reward of public office, 1t becomes
offensive Every official must first pay
honornbly 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 mendable or defensible
We regret extremely, therefore, our
obligation of entire simplicity and i'm
perativeness to say that we can see in
the venture of Offering such candidate,
on grounds new in New York politics,
no worthy element whatsoever.
