WHO SHALL FOLLOW

The next question of interest about
New York local politics is who shall
follow Croker2
II there is to be just such anot her
man as Croker, there will be no benefit
derived from the deposition, or, as 1t is
euphemistically called, the resignation
Of Croker.
He processes to have resigned his posi-
tion In Tammany Hall. He was force d
out by public sentiment. Now that he
is really out, II his influence is dead, and
II he does not put just such another man
as he into the same position, the political
atmosphere of New York will be very
much clearer.
But of this we are doubtful There is
a story told OF president Of Western
railway, who said he preferred the old
conductors, notwithstanding that they
were dishonest, to new conductors. When
pressed for his reasons he said that the
old conductors had provided diamond
rings and sealslSin sacques for their wives
already. That they mad bought houses
and lots and were living in ease anc
comfort, II not luxury. That, being
provided for the old conductors, though
dishonest, would not be under the neces-
sity Of stealing as. much as the new con
ductors who had not houses and lots, anS
whose wives were not provided Will
ornaments and adornments.
This may be the case with Croker an'
the man who follows him. II he is &
steal or come into possession of tn
81, 600, 900 or more In the course of fv
years, with no salary, no business and n
visible means OF acquiring such an enor
nous fortune, Il would be better TO le
Mr.. Croker remain. After having OBJ
tanned all he could wish for In life, h
might, like the Western conductors. re
form and let the city and the peopl
keep some Of the money which belongs
them.
Thus It depends greatly on who sue
ceeds Croker whether 1t is well for th
city that Croker has resigned" TIL
theory that anybody would be bette
than Croker is fstuous; 1t would be eas
10 find man who would take more in

II is said that Tip had killed eight
men. But that was in his early history
which was cloudy. The greatest rage Of
recent date occurred when Pat Neary
gave him 5000 and provoked him to at
tempt TO beat Gallagher
Several attempts have been made to
reform Tip without avail. He was a
rogue by nature and training He could
not be cured; he was sly, deceitful.
treaoherous and vicious. He could not
help being so because he had never been
taught TO do honest work and he had
never done an honest days work In his
life. He had always been on exhibition
as dangerous freak.
After celebrating carefully the Re
publican politicians got together and de-
cided that they could not protect the
Tip industry any longer. He was dan
gerous as an exhibit and useless as an
object lesson OF how to live without
working
They determined to execute him. They
gave him several doses OF cyanide Of
potassium, which Tip kept in his copper
lined insides with great show OF Wana'

he lay down to die.
Now we would not suggest the murder
Of any beast to Senator Higgins; thai
