An KEUL AOOUSA TON.

The worst thing that has been said dur
ing the Lexow investigation going on in
New York city was uttered on Friday last
by Counsel Gof,-that not only were police
regulations under the direct control of Tam
many but that the Courts themselves were
in the hands Of this organization to such an
extent that lawyer could not get clients
unless he had a pull with it, because the
judges dare not offend its members. Mr..
Golf said
81 speak of my own knowledge, and l
defy successful contradiction. can tell OF
clients who have been taken from me be-
cause they knew l had not pull in the
courts, and can point to scores of lawyers
who had to get into Tammany Hall in order
to retain and protect their clients. There
are hundreds OF men in this city who are
robbed, defrauded and blackmailed who do
not carry the matter into the courts because
they know they couldn't get justice there.
The courts of this city are not controlled by
justice, but are overshadowed by TammanY
Hall"
1t would be impossible to conceive any
thing worse than this. The great safeguard
of any community is its absolute faith in the
purity OF its judiciary. When doubt is felt
as to that, whether the judges are only police
magistrates or members Of higher court,
there is no security in the body polite. Then
revolution seems to be the only remedy.

Ours Is land Of liberty, but not Of libertin-
ism. Men are free to think, speak and act
according to their convictions as long as
those convictions do not conflict with the
enjoyment of life, liberty and happiness by
their fellowmen, but when the dividing line
is crossed, when life and property are threat
ened and freedom is construed as embracing
a license for treason and other forms OF
crime, non interference becomes sheer folly.
Most, the preacher Of assassination, does
not deserve liberation. He and the whole
school are imported criminals and should
be driven from country, the hospitality of
which he has abused by setting up nursery
of Infamous crime.

THE DANGER.

The danger of the Democratic party, in
the present political juncture, is mainly from
within its own ranks. AS we have pointed
House tariff bill has demonstrated beyond
-,esbt the abiding faith of the party and
ofthe country in the principles of tariff reform
enunciated by the last Democratic National
Convention. The criticism of the Senate
which has grown sharper instead of abating
as time passed, and which grows clearer and
more definite rs study reveals the hidden
McKinleyism Of the Senate amendments
Indicates condition of public sentiment full
Of hope for the Democracy If wisdom and
manlness mark the course of the conference
committee upon this great measure.
II is not to be expected, Of course, that the
conference will RESULT in measure nearly SO
good as the Wilson bill, but 1t lie certainly
Aot beyond reason to expect that those fea.
lures in which the Senate bill most directly
offends Democratic pledges and Democratic
principles will be eliminated before the bill
becomes law.
The conditions are such that the Demo-
cratic party cannot afford TO be placed upon
the defensive upon the tariff issue. The con-
test has been waged too long upon definite
lines and for definite ends to make it safe to
retreat one hairs breadth where fundamen-
tai party principles are at stake. And It is
this condition which creates the opportunity
and the duty Of the House of Representa-.
tives. The House knows now, as 1t would
not have known under other circumstances
perhaps, that its work met the approval of
all classes In the country who had become
wearied and disguised with the excessive
protection of Republican legislation, and it
must therefore know that it cannot go amiss
in insisting upon restoration of those fea.
lures of the House bill which particularly
distinguished the proposed legislation from
the Republican monstrosity. Nor is It at all
likely that conference report 80 framed
would fail to receive the votes of those
Senators who have done so much TO weaken
the Democratic position. Upon the final
test, that small minority would hardly dare
TO defeat the bill, and if they should go to
this extreme the party would be in far
better position than II it acquiesced in their
demands, for the party would then be in a
position to renew its fight for tariff reform
II the House should yield, the party must
excuse and explain its change of iront--a
difficult task in view of its long and heroic
battle against all it would then declare to
wise and expedient
The danger therefore lies In the effort that
now being made to have the Senate
,ndments adopted as the final judgment
congress- 1t would vindcate the con-
ative Senators, 1t is true, and be hailed
heir organs as proof of their political
city and power, but 1t would be at the
snse of party success, and would indef
ly postpone tariff reform. We hope and
i've that Mr.. Wilson and the House will
us from the impending catastrophe.

With this issue the SENTINEL enters up

forces which have controlled it, the power
Il has acquired, the influence it has exerted
and Its general reaction on the community

juncture requires mere space than pressing
circumstances will allow, besides we fiatter
Ourself that we have from time TO time in the

Of any merit, In our country, where every
body reads, and so many borrow the tone and
OIs-Of their opinions from what ema-
an the press. 1t has grown to be the
dium through which the public thought
e reached and controlled. We are struck
with awe when we think of the amount Of
good or evil, Of truth or error, which goes
out into the community with every issue of
the paper. 1t finds its way into the homes
Of the rich and poor and through every ave.
nue. of society and trade, every profession
and walk Of life, and silently works its way
into the convictions and confidence of its

but is called into the aid of every scheme

Approaching these facts in the every day

been the constant recipients, the SENTINEL,
in the future as in the past, will continue to
labor for the good of all. More it could not
