Representative Catchings. of Mississippi

In reference to those so-called Demo-
cratic Senators whose action defeated
some of the most important features OF
the Wilson bill. and who were found

The reason given by the President for
the course he has pursued are the con-

insists on the expedlency OF the more
comprehensive tariff reform contem-
plated by the Wilson bill. and feels
confident that the struggle will continue

10 THE PRINCE AFRAIDl

The Prince Of Wales has withdra wn
his yacht Britannia from all the races
yet to be sailed this season. and the boat
Is to be laid up for the Winter.
No other boat can be substituted for
tho Britannia as the defender OF the
cup without the consent OF the New
York Yacht Club. and It Is not likely
that will be given In the absence of any
good reason for Britannia's default II
u said the Princes determination &c
withdraw from the regattas is due to the
accident on Saturday last. by which the
chief officer and steward OF Britannia
lost their lives. But this is scarcely a
satisfactory reason for the cancellins
Of the Cape May Cup race.
There are those who believe tina
Albert Edward is unwilling to risk tn,
loss OF the honors he has already won
and Is afraid Of Vigi!ant in the challenge
race. But Mr.. Gould declares his intcn
ton to insist on the contest, and claim
that II Britannia does not sail asains
Vigilant she must give up the cup.
Mr., Gould will bring his yacht HON
with fairly good record after all.

OUR RULERS ABROAD.

The cable brings the important intelii-
gence that Mayor Gilroy has not seen
ex-Secretary Whitney while in London
that Postmaster Dayton has not seen
Mr.. Gilroy; that ex.Mayor Grace will
consent to no combination with Tam
many. and that Edward Parmelee Jones
and James McNally, kings OF the New
York bunco gangs. are busying them
selves about New York politics.
What title have these absentees to
claim an especial protectorate over the
politics Of the State and city OF New
York; Who gave them the right to
speak for the American people, and
what influence can they bring to bear
that will insure them the power to die
tate to the people OF New York what
they shall do about their public affairs?
A great many self-constituted leaders
are just now busying themselves with
tho political problem, and stretching
forth their hands to seize power. But
| who made them rulers? Who bestowed
| on them the authority OF dictators

WHY NOT ACT TOGETHER

The I.exow Committee IL about to re
convene and resume its excellent work.
1t will doubtless be continued with the
vigor and success that has hitherto
marked its progress.
But why should the searching out ana
exposure of wrong doing interfere with
the trial. conviction and punishment OF
the doors of wrong? why should the
Lexow Investigation, In fact. be made
the instrument for at least the tenn
porary protection and keeping In Once
of the public officers II Is instrumental
in proving guilty OF corrupt and criminal
acts?
The Lexow Committee can only un-
earth corrtptions with a view to the
future correction by legislation of the
evil methods that render them possible.
1t can lay the groundwork OF reform In
the future. 1t cannot give us protection
in the present nor bring guilty men to
Justice and rid the city OF the danger or
| their continuance in ONCE.
The police trials can apply an imme-
diate remedy by driving dishonest ana
unfaithful men from the force.
Mr.. Con-, able and adroit. can push a
Police Commissioner or refractory
witness into a corner, satisfy the public
mind that corrupt practices exist and
supply the Investigating Senators with
good mat erial for their report and good
grounds for urging a measure OF reform
on next years Legislature.
Mr.. Wellman, strong and practical, can
bring guilt home to an offender and
make his punishment certain.
Why should they not work together
at one and the same time. the discover
les OF the one making easier the prac'
tically useful task of the other?
The objections made to the police
trials on the first meeting Of the Lexo"
Committee were based on the suspicior
that they might be designed to cover VI
instead Of to expose crime. and to pro
tect instead Of to punish offenders. The
results Of the trials show this suspicion
to have been unfounded, and there II
now no reason why the two inquiries
should not proceed at the same time.
The Republican Police Commissioner
will make n mistake II they refuse t
allow the police trials to proceed. TIL
Lexow investigation will continue unit
next February. and there is no reaso'
why corrupt and unfaithful officer
should be granted lease OF abused
power for the next four months.
