A Strong Lever for Good.

The echoes of the Lexow investigation in
New York city are still being heard. Polit-
ical retributicn was visited year ago upon
these whose wrong-doing was exposed by
that inquiry that sounded the depths of
municipal corruption, but there is still an
other effect in store for some of those
whose participation in the government CT
the city is shown to be stained with scan
DIAL w. s. Andrews, formerly commissioner
of street cleaning and excise commissioner
of New York, has just been found guilty of
the charge of conduct unbecoming an
officer and a gentleman by the board of
officers of the New York Commandery,
Loyal Legion. These charges grew out of
the revelations by witnesses before the
Lexow committee, who showed that An
drews had accepted what Pco-Bah called
insults for official actions, and had been
further guilty of the objectionable offense
of defrauding an old pensioner. 1t is i'm
possible to estimate the effect of this
action. Men who may be oblivious to
scandals that affect only their political
associations are apt to be extremely sensi-
tive on all subjects that touch upon their
social relations or influence in any degree
the attitude of the rest of mankind toward
them as gentlemen. There is vast deal
of power for good in this phenomenon, and
it augurs we'll for the future comfort and
well-being of dwellers in large cities that
social organizations will take cognizance
of the misdeeds of the politicians revealed
in such inquiries as that which has torn the
masks from the faces of so many of New
York's leading politicians.

perviscrs aided and abetted- In the removal
of watchers from the registration offices;
that the office of the supervisor Of elections
was, prior to the removal of the watchers.
administered in accord with purely parti-
san considerations; that the republican
supervisor has been absolutely ignored; ;
that the majority of the board have emas-
culated the provision of the law which d.
reefs the appointment of a republican SUI
pervisor, and that the democratic majority
In the board have appointed men as repub-
fcan electors officials who really did not
represent the minority party, and against
whom protests have been made by the re-
publican organizations; that the counsel
for the reform league has been excluded
from the hearing of cases before the SD
pervisor, and that, generally, the majority
OF the board has SO acted as to justify
their removal from office. To afford the
accused ample opportunity for defense,
Governor Brown sits In judicial capacity
and publicly. It Is to be presumed that
If the accused are found guilty they will
be removed from the responsible positions
they occupy and as the testimony and ar
gument are all being poured into the pub
lie ear there will be little room for any
accusation of unfairness in the conduct of
the investigation. From the evidence so
Tar submitted the prosecution appears to
nave good case. The activity of those
VINO instituted the proceedings cannot be
too highly commended; only by the vigor-
GUS personal interest of the comparative
few can decency in politics have anything
like show for existence

Idle Machinery w. Idle Guns.

There is every reason to congratulate the
government on the successful launch Of the
armored cruiser Brooklyn yesterday at
Philadelphia. At the same time the thought
is unavoidable that the good times of peace
are being sadly wasted in an Illogical effort
to build up a navy without taking ap-
prcpriate steps in every direction pertain
ing to the business of self-defense The ma
chirery at the Washington gun-foundry Is
slowing up, and the force Is being reduced
In short time the wheels will cease to
whirI at this great plant and the shops will
be closed, for the lack of work, it is de-
olared. The Government meantime is pay
ing large subsidies to certain steamships
fer carrying the mails and for being SUBJ
ject to the immediate use of the country in
CO Sc of an international disagreement
Those vessels would be practically useless
in time of war, in their present condition,
and not step has yet been taken to pro-
vide them with armament for active SER
vice. The Brooklyn and other vessels of
her class are to be armed, of course, and
will go forth to swell the list of Uncle
Sans great fighting machines. She will be
a splendid addition to the navy, and will be
a most useful factor in case of war. But
she will not suffice, nor will all the rest of
European nations we're to assume the Of
fensive towards this country The navy
that will fight and win the battles of the
nation has not yet been built or is not vet
armed Meanwhile the gun shop is to be
closed for lack of work: The auxiliary
cruisers are to continue on their trips back
and forth across the Atlantic, at great ex-
pense to the government, while they will be
as far from effectiveness practically, as
the man-of-war that is yet to be built 1t
will take almost as long to construct their
guns and to place them properly as it will
to duplicate the entire ships, guns and all.
1t is the worst of false economy to seek to
save now by neglecting to spend the money
necessary to continue the operations of the
gun foundry while vast sums are being
paid to the owners of the steamers as subsi-
dies. If the armament for these cruisers
were ready today to be placed on board in
short notice the subsidy would be good in
vestment. But by the time of an inter-
rational outbreak it may be that enough
money will have been thus paid to con-
struct entirely new vessels better adapted
to the service of the United States. 1t is a
mere matter of bookkeeping. The money
spent in the making of the guns at this
time would not be wasted, even if the
forthcoming war were several scores Of
years away. 1t would have been paid out
to American manufacturers for materials,
and to American workingmen for their
labor. 1t would remain here, in circulation
while the guns themselves might be lying
idle in The store-houSes of the Navy. Idle
machinery costs more to the country than
idle guns The former is an evidence Of
paralysis, and the latter are signs of peace.

The Chattanooga Times recently made a
new high-water mark for southern jour
nalistic enterprise By publishing en- the oc-
casion of the dedication of the Chicka-
manga Cha ttanooga National Military Park
a tremendous issue, or rather series of
great issues completely eclipsing all pre-
vious efforts of newspapers published in
cities of but fifty thousand people. The
Times spread it's enterprise over the sew
eral days of the affair, and produced some
beautiful effects with a autographed cover
and a fine half-tone souvenir of the park.
The dedication number was exceptionally
handsome. and the entire output was wor-
thy of high praise.
