We take pleasure III giving place in
our columns to the following editorial
from the Neus OF las: Thursday:
The retirement of Acknowledgement Gar
rett j. Hart brings to close the I'D minis
tration of faithful ard efficient officer,
The manifold duties OF his office have
teen administered with conscientious
fidelity, with business.like method and
system, and, SO far as expenditures are
concerned, with scrupulous exaCtness.
Considering the neagre appropriation for
militia purposes, ii is no small testimonial
of General Harris administrative capacity
that he leaves the office in financially
healthy condition. In view of his warm
interest in the National Guard and pro-
nounced fitness for command, it is to be
hoped he may be induced to accept battal-
ion or regimental office when vacancy
shall occur.
The GAZETTE cordially indcrsos
every word of the above paragraph. 1t
is deserved tribute to a faithful official
who has brought to bear upon the per-
Torrance of his duties spirit of intelli-
gent effort, as well as commendable
industry,
This being the case, the question nat
urally arises, Why should this faithful
and intelligent officer be removed simply
because he belongs 10 one political party
and the appointing power to anotlerS
There should be no politics in the
administration Of affairs concerning tho
State militia 1t is made up Of men of al
political parties, and the interests of al
people are alike concerned in its cap
able and efficient management.
70 express the hope that Adjutant
general Hart "nay be induced to nc
cept battalion or regimental office whel
vacancy shall occur" is to admit tina
injustice was done to the interests o
the National Guard in not continuing
him in office.
The opportunity for an admirabl
obiect-lessou in partisanship il
public affairs was lost when the Cover
nor failed to reappoint Adjutant.gen
eral Hart. Surely an officer Of sue
merit as to draw forth high praise fror
: the organ OF the opposite political part
} should have been retained. His RI
moyal cannot help proving detrlmentC

Mr.. Hastings was rather unfortunate
in his choice of time for casting imputa-
tions Of dishonorable conduct upon
George V. Massey, when the only other
witnesses to the matter are out of reach.
Can it be that he waited until General
Wilson left the city, knowing that Wat
son r. Sperry was beyond call, before
he made his attack upon Mr., Massey
General Wilson and Mr.. Massey should
both be heard from, and Mr., Hastings
owes it to himself to back up his asser.
tons with statements from the parties
whom he cites as witnesses to Mr.. Mas,
sey's alleged agreement not to enter the
Senatorial contest at this time.

There appears to be very general
impression among people in all parts of
the State, that the section of the Aus.
tralian Ballot law providing for voters
assistants should be repealed. These
officials, willie doubtless real aid to
voters in some instances, seem 10 have
been made more use Of by outside politi-
cal workers IN influencing voters, and
also in informing those outside how Ger.
tam persons voted, thus defeating one
of the prime objects Of the law, the
secrecy OF the ballot. In view of the
concensus of opinion that the voters
assistants should go, it might BIO well
for the Legislature to dismiss them with
out further delay.

An important provision Of the bill
that the Board Of Health has prepared
for presentation to the Legislature is
that the plumbing inspection of dwell
ings in the city shall come under the
control Of the board. That jurisdiction is
now with the Street and Sewer Depart
ment, which body, however, has no
rights beyond the building line. The
Board OF Health is responsible for the
sanitary condition of the city, but under
existing law has no control over the
| functionary whose duties are to see
that all plumbing in city dwellings
is done in accordance with modern
sanitary regulations. The intent OF
the bill is simply to place
the Health Department in its logical
position of jurisdiction as well as re-
sponsibility in regard to the plumbing
inspection of the city. 1t is understood
that the Street and Sewer Department
is not opposed 10 the proposition. A
any rate it seems only fair that the de
partment that has the responsibility
should also have the control in thu
premises.

The Rev. J. A. 3. Wilson, formerly of
this State, was one Of committee ap.
pointed by the American Temperance
Union of New York City to wait on
Mayor Strong and oppose the proposed
opening of liquor saloons in that
city at certain periods on Sundays.
He came away from the interview
with the mayor very much incsnsed
because lis honor had spoken OF
the reception of letters from various
ministers in high standing, strongly ad-
vocating the proposed sunday opening.
70 these ministers Mr.. Wilson, in max
ing his report to the union Sunday,
paid his compliments as follows:
repeat, l can pity the liquor sellers and
| apologize for YOU but for these sO-Called
ministers of the gospel have nothing but
| utter contempt, incorporating, relent-
/ less, and eternal. II mt any time you
| should have occasion to communicate with
the devil please give him my compliments
and say for me that in the interests OF
strict economy of administration he had
! better retire from New York with all his
forces Of hell: that these reverend traitors
can take better care OF his interests here
than he can by any possibility do fol
himself; that deyilish dominic can out

1t must be admitted that from a
general point Of view the present con-

any increase in tho salaries of city Off !.
GERS, to say nothing OF tho very pre-
carious state of the city finances. The
increase of salaries of certain employees
of the city engineering department, as
granted by City Council ia an ordinance
passed last Thursday night, may be en-.
tirely meritorious, but tho propriety OF
the act seems rather doubtful. 1t will be
well for Mayor Shortlidge to carefully
consider this ordinance before making
it effective BY his official approval.
