A CITY CRUSADE.

The Twenty-fourth street situation is
very simple one. 1t Is a question
whether the majority Of the residents.
property owners and tenants on the
street are In favor OF decency and law
or are upholders Of vice and lawless-
ness.
To the question put in that way there
can be but one answer.
The remoter aspect OF the situation,
the question whether the decent and
law abiding majority can carry out its
honest wishes against the small MI
nority of vile and vicious lawbreakers,
Is equally simple. Not even the in
difference of the police, nor an alliance
between police protection and vice, can
prevail against law and decency In
such a community as New York. The
publicity OF the reported progress of the
struggle in the daily papers Is In itself
sufficient to make the resistance of the
evil-doers hopeless.
Mrs. Sallade and her co-workers have
only to push their case to insure sue
cess and to render a signal service to
the cause OF order and decency.

"IN THE HANDS OF DEMOCRATS. "

Robert 7. Lincoln, exMinister to Eng
land. is quoted az having remarked at
Chicago yesterday: I'VE are in the
hands OF the Democrats and only the
Lord knows when all this distress will
end"
MIR. Lincoln was wrong in his prem
Democrats. On the contrary, the Nc
Kinley law still prevails. and Democ-
racy. up TO this hour, has had no
chance to fulfil the pledges upon the
strength of which It's candidate was
made President and its representatives
were supposed to have come into con-
troll OF the Congress
II the country had been In the hands
OF the real Democrats for the months
past since the election Of 1892 tariff
reform would now be an accomplished
fact, revlving industry. and commerce
would have received an encouraging
push, and there would not be the pres
est embarrassing condition Of things
in which the country's business literally
knows not where II Is AT"
No, Mr. Lincoln, we are in the hands
OF powers that were never Democratic,
and while ostens.ble Democrats stand
as the agents of those powers. blocking
the way to action at Washington, the
responsibility cannot Justly be placed
upon the great party which won the
day in November nearly two years ago
Upon that party the penalty for the
delay and the trouble OF this hour may
finally be visited. but the main body Of
Democrats stands to-day, on the tariff
issue. just where It stood In campaign
and election. and the man in the White
House stands ready to lead the march in
the direction pointed out by the voice at
the polls. Following that direction. the
march would be out of darkness into
light. And theH would we be sin the
hands OF the Democrats"

PRACTICAL POLITICS.

Yesterdays proceedings at Saratoga
were thoroughly harmonious and In ac-
cordance with the views given out by
the individual members OF the Committee
In advance of thu meeting. The State
Convention, to be held Sept. %. Is to
consist OF delegates selected in the regu-
lar way at regular primaries; six days
notice Ia to be given. SO that anti-ma-
chine Democrats will not be In a posi-
ton to call the Convention n snap con-
vention; and. whereas 1t Is certain that
contesting delegations will be sent from
Buffalo and Albany. the authority OF the
Committee to deal with contests is dele
gated TO a subcommittee of Ave. who
are to hear all controversies and decide
In favor OF the machine delegates.
1t would be impossible for n Commit
tee meeting to be more harmonious.

not more complete than the peace which
presided over the deliberations OF the
