THE POLICE CoMMIssIoSERs.

The decision Of Judge Langley In the
case Of Commissioners Cheasty and Mig
gle does not touch upon the merits of the
controversy between these officials and
the mayor. but simply decides that the
mayor should have observed certain forms
in making the removals.
Under the decision Of the court the
mayor has power to remove the commits
sioners for cause, but before the removal
the court holds that there must be notice
and a hearing of the charges against them.
Inasmuch IS the mayor will be the
Judge of the suficiency Of the grounds for
removal it is apparent that the hearing
is merely a matter of form. Mayor Phelps
il too Just man TO have acted without
due consideration. and it is safe to assume
that in the event Of a public hearing he
will amply justify the course that he has
pursued.
The charges against Commissioner
Niggie are of q serious nature, and If sub
ssantiated furnish ample grounds for his
removal. The charges against Commits
sioner Cheasty, however. are of an entirely
different character. While they may not
imply anything personally dishonorahle
they certainly do imply q reckless disre-
gard of the interests of the police depart
ment and its efficient administration.

Funeral of Can't. Bridvmau TODAY.

TACOMA, Sept. l7.-[SpeciaL The fu-
neral of the late Capt. William X. Bridg-
man tomorrow will be Of an interesting
nature, although the officers aboard the
Monterey say there will be no firing of the
usual salute over the remains. as is Gus
tomary At the burial of on officer of the
late Capt. Bridgman's rank. However,
arrangements have been made at Hoska's
undertaking parlors for the firing of three
volieys by the marines from the Monterey.
The firing. as arranged for, is TO take place
in front of the undertaking establishment
Between and o. IN. two companies of
marines from the Monterey will form in
line about the hearse at the Hotel Roches-
ter and will present arms as the body is
brought from the hotel. They will escort
the body to ST. Luke's church. where serv-
ices Will be held at p. m. Then the re-

Pendleton as one of the pall-bearers. The
officers will all appear in uniform. There
are l72 men, besides the officers. on the

tend the funeral. The retieence of the dead
captain is subject of conversation among
many people who knew him well. Even the
physicians who have attended him had
difficulty in getting sufficient information
from him to diagnose his case. lie went
into the navy when Is years of age, and
had always lived aboard 1ar vessels. He
had never been sick day in his life. His
people are noted for longevity. and he
had no idea of dying. He believed he
would soon be on his feet again. He did
not believe he was really in dangerous
condition until twenty-four hours before
he died. He WAS singularly free from all
sorts Of vice. aud while q close student

There were Populists in the days Of our
place "Shay's Rsbellion." These Popu-
lists rose in rebellion because they charged
s'that lawyers were extortionate, because
the senate was too aristocratic, because
they wanted an issue OF paper money, be-
cause they wanted the general court re-
moved to Boston"
These Populists made deal of trouble.
Finally they rose IN armed instruction
and undertook to seize courthouse. Gen.
Lincoln. of Revolutionary fame, led a
body of Massachusetts militia against
them, ordered them 10 disperse and ON
their refusal opened on them with cannon
and killed and wounded a few of the
rebels. The rest ran like sheep and that
was the end OF Populism in Massachu sets.
In 1874 PopuIism broke loose In the
shape of the whisky rebellion OF Western
Pennsylvania The measure laying duties
upon spirits OF domestic manufacture and
upon stills. recommended by Hamilton,
had encountered fierce opposition from
the followers of Jefferson In and out Of
congress. The first demonstration was
shown to collector of revenue for the coun-
ties of Allegheny and Washington, who
was waylaid in the latter county by body
of armed and disguised men. who cut off
his hair, tarred and feathered him, took
away his horse and left him to make his
way on foot. The case was brought to
court and processes were issued against
the persons suspected. The processes
could not be served. intimidation pre-
vailed to such an extent that dis
tillers who desired to comply with
the Law were prevented for fear of
the violence OF the "moonshiners. Per-
sons suspected of favoring the enforcing
of the law were seized and subjected to
outrageous indignities. Men suspected of
being in employ of the government were
taken from their beds at night, stripped
naked. branded in several places with a
hot iron and then tarred and feathered.
The property of every man not known to
be in sympathy with the rioters was In
danger Of being destroyed. No man dared
to lease his property TO the government.
Ii he did he was sure to ind IL in ashes in
brief time. One man who rented his
premises for a government Office was
forced 10 abandon his home. his lands and
tenements.
Ii was known that Jefferson and Ran
doiph were in sympathy with the rebels.

yards secretary Of the treasury under Jefer-
son. Gallatin was an immigrant from
Switzerland. and was the Democratic rep
rssentative Of the district in congress for
years on the whisky question. Hamilton
in vain urged Randolph to vigorously
prosecute this rlngieader. These lawless
proceedings were carried on for some time
until in the fall OF i79i the instruction
was put down by President Washington
sending an army of $4,000 men under Gen.
Wayne into the district. Little or no
blood was shed In restoring order.
