Should there be any unfairness in the
running of the election in New York city
today. Superintendent Byrnes will hardly
lie accused of any responsibility for the
crookedness. A week ago it was suggested
to the board of police commissioners that
an ominently proper thing to do in connec-
ton with election proceedings would be to
transfer policemen from the precincts in
which they regularly do duty to precincts
in which they would not be likely to have
many acquaintance. A resolution to that
effect was introduced by a republican mem
Der of the board, but it was defeated by
the votes of the two Tammany commits
sioners. Examination of the law governing
the police force showed that power to make
transfers was vested in the superin .endent.
Last night, without any warning, Superin-
tendent Byrnes ordered the transfer of
nearly twenty-three hundred policemen, and
when his action became known there was
tremendous outburst of profanity from
those who have in times past defeared the
popular will through connivance with bal
lot-stealing schemes. Under the new condi-
tons the police and the 'heelers'' will be
strangers to each other, so anything like
combined assault upon good government
will not be practicable.
