ELM STREET THREATENED.

Senator Owens. the Brooklyn accident.
has introduced a bill to repeal the Elm
Street Widening law. Why a Brooklyn
Senator should interfere with strictly
New York law Ia matter Of conjecture.
But conjecture on the subject Is tolcra-
bly, certain to come near the truth.
The Elm street Improvement Is one of
the most desirable In the city. The peo-
pie and the authorities OF New York are
so we'll aware of this that they took care
to provide In the bill against those vexa-
tious and fatuous delays that under the
old law of acquisition enabled a few sell
fish owners. aided by sharp lawyers. to
fight Off and delay a needed public i'm
provement for years. Now an acci-
dental Senator from Brooklyn steps In
and wants the law repealed and all the
work already done under 1t to go for
naught.
There has been too much procrastina.
tion In the Corporation Counsels office
over the Elm street work, anyway
There Is good reason to believe that
much of 1t has been due to an obstinate
fight over the appointment of Commits
sioners and much to a desire to give q
few favored lawyers time to carry Out
job with owners over the awards. But
for these intrigues the work might have
been well on its way already and al
danger Of Legislative interference re

This is not good time for political

There Is small political satrapy in
Chemung County. as there was in
Gravcscnd until its recent transfer to
Sing Sing. and as there is in some
other places that could be named. The
hos. Is Matthias H. Arnot. Of the we'll
known Arnot family of Elmira politi-
clans and bankers. and he holds
strong hand over the politics OF the
county.
There Is rumor at Albany that
Arnot is using his influence with Gov.
Flower to save the managers of the
Elmra Reformatory from removal in
the knowledge that II they remain in
Office Brute BroCkway. the Superin-
tendant, cannot he displaced. 1t is
said that Boss Arnots friends make
open boasts Of their chiefs power over
the Governor, and declare that the latter
will not venture to interfere with the
managers If the Chemung boss SAYS
hands off" Arnot Is Treasurer OF the
Reformatory.
THE Evening World" gives this ru-
NOR for what 1t IL worth. but takes no
stock in the story. 1t has fun conf
dence in the justice, the humanity and
the courage OF Gov. Flower. and feels
quite certain that he will respect public
sentiment in this matter and remove the
managers In accordance with the recon-
mendation OF the State Board OF Char
tiles.
There Is no reason to fear that Gov
Flower will yield either to persuasions
or threats. or will fail to do his duty in
this scandalous case. But the people de-
sire that his action shall he prompt. and
that the disgrace and cruelty of Brock
ways retention in power shall not exist
a day longer than Is necessary. The re-
port OF the State Board of Charities has
already remained too long unacted upon.
Not n day should really have been al
lowed to pass without such action as
would have rid the State Of the disgrace
of Brockway and have rescued the Ell
mira prisoners from his cruelty.
We now ask Gov. Flower to act at
once. with the vigor and determination
for which he is distinguished. The law
gives him constitutional power and
makes 1t his constitutional duty to " see
that the laws are properly executed" A
competent. upright and honorable body
has declared the managers and Super
intendent of the Elmira Reformatory
guilty of offenses against the law. Now
let the Governor exercise his authority
and take such action as will put stop
TO the scandal and outrage without fur
ther dallying or delay.
