The new Board of Police Commission
ers is decidedly encouraging. At it's
first meeting In March it showed that
1t had u grip on the situation by taking
action concerning the superintendency
that effectually squelched several large
and well arranged plots and suddenly
checked tendency to decentralization in
the force, Last evening it voted to
abolish all special details after the first
of next month, and also voted to allow
the superintendent to make all details
after that date according to his best
judgment. This is an excellent move.
Heretofore some of the special details,
il not all of them, have been the result
of deals" and they have been the
cause of much excusable dissatisfac-
ton among the members OF the force
who hadn't the requisite pull to get
soft snaps" They have also not look
ed right to the public, which pays the
bills. The commissioners have done
well to cut themselves off from the
special detail business and put it where
it belongs. The superintendent should
not and probably will not show any
unjust favoritism in the details. If he
does the commissioners can with good
conscience call him to account.
More public spirit and more power to
the commissioners. They have made
two very well directed and beneficent
moves, and in making them they have
shown that they are actuated by a de-
sire to do the right thing. They will

That's his work, or part OF 1t, and the
candidate elected by such work doesn't
owe personal debt to the committee
man. any more than passenger land
ed at the Grand Central depot, owes a
personal debt to the engineer OF his
train.
There are two kinds OF committee
men and each kind can be found in the
committees of each party, now. One
kind, after election, says: "Hurrah,
our party got there. Shake!" And
they do shake, and he and the success
full candidate exchange concentrations,
The other kind says; well, IL it hadn't
been for what did for you, you neverd
have got there. l shall want some help
at the state house, and I'll see you
there" Ones committeeman, the
others broker. That's the difference.
The districts have right to choose the
man they want. But they ought, in the
interests of the party, to choose earnest
workers for the party, not state house
brokers for self; and there are to-day in
the republican committee Jealous,
Woodworking, self sacrificing men. No
reflection upon them is intended, neith-
"a Wv tlAtS ilcGu W NC toii ttlehi IiiC otiiSl
kind also are there beside them.
So much for the duty of the dele
gates toward the party. a word now
as to the committee that Is chosen.
This is critical and peculiar year.
We not only have on hand q presiden-
tial election, but we are to nominate
and elect full State ticket, and later
a senator is to be chosen. 1t will be a
grave mistake and will tend to unsettle
party harmony If the new committee
at once effects a permanent organlza-
ton. Until the fall campaign opens
there is little to be done beyond calling
the convention in summer A tempo
rary chairman, or by request Mr. Ben
ton, who says he is going to retire
could do this perfectly we'll. Then
when the ticket is in the field, chair
man can be selected whose personal re-
lations with the head of the ticket are
such as to insure harmony.
This is precedent and a precedent
that should be followed. There was a
break two years ago, and Governor
Coffin was forced to take man he
didn't want or else to walk" If he
had braced up a little firmer and de-
cided to walk" he'd have done fully
as we'll as he did, and the local organ
izations that would have had charge
of the canvass would have become the
party machinery. The central commit
| tee, cut loose from candidates. discred
| tied and without funds, would have
| disappeared But this didn't happen
and the old system stlll prevails. The
old custom should prevail, too. Let US
not begin this campaign by slapping the
| face of the nominee. 1t isn't suspicious.
Go slow and make for harmony is the
! wise course.

rNIEoRMrrY NEEDED.

1t is surprising, or would be if people
were not people, how slow the people
of this country are in appreciating and
using the advantages of the metric sys
TEN of weights and measures. The need
of the adoption of the system is strik-
| ingly set forth in the report Of the con-
gressional committee on the subject:
The size of our quart, gallon, bushel and
| barrel varies according to locality, at
present. The barrel Of oil or cider in
| Pennsylvania, Ohio and many of the
| States, according to legal provision,
contains BIZ gallons, but in actual fact
it contains 40 or AZ gallons. The gallon
! of milk in New York contains 231 cubic
inches, and in Minnesota it is fixed by
law at 2S2. The standard bushel used
| by the United States in the custom
| houses is per cent. smaller than the
standard bushel of Great Britain. The
bushel OF oats varies from 26 pounds in
Maryland to SO pounds in Oregon. The
bushel OF barley weighs 80 pounds in
Louisiana and so in California. The
laws of New York and Oregon make ~
pounds of buckwheat bushel, while
those of Minnesota and Nebraska call
for 81 pounds, and Kentucky Sc pounds
The bushel of rye weighs so pounds in
Louisiana, bit grows to Sc pounds in
Ohio. Potatoes weigh so pounds to the
hushel in Washington, Sc in Pennsyl-
vania and 60 in Ohio. In. Maine a.
pounds make bushei Of apples, while
81 are required in Wisconsin. A bushel
of salt weighs but SO pounds in Virginia
and several of the States, but reaches 70
in Massachusetts, and brings down the
scales at so in Colorado.
The weights and measures of the
country appear to be about as uniform
as the divorce laws.

FASHION NOTES.
The Best Use FOR New Stuff


The safest plan is to have new goods
made up in coat or jacket fashion, no
matter for what use the gown is to be
put. This does not imply as much re-
strietion as it might seem to at first,
because the admissible styles of coats
and jackets are so many. Then, be-
sides those already seen, there are as
many more new ones to follow, to judge
by the novelties that come in a process
sion from the designers. If the stuff in
hand is black velvet, make it into a
Louis coat, and wear it over a white
waisteoat, with rose velvet stock at
the throat, and with skirt of apple
green. If you like the zouave jacket. it
may still do service if elaborated by
taking a panel front that extends to
the belt and, perhaps, makes a part of

A TIMELY SUGGESTION,

We call the attention of our readers
who are interested in the success of the
Republican party to the Word of
Warming" uttered by the Hartford
Courant and reprinted on this page.
1t contains much that is timely, sound
and impressive. And especially worthy
of attention is that part of the article
which relates to the organization of the
State central committee. 1t is said
that there is a. plan on foot which in
cludes the resignation Of the present
chairman soon and the election of
another chairman by the committee
with the idea that the new chairman
Will be the man who will conduct the
campaign this year. This plan does
not take any account Of what may hap
pen to be the wishes of the candidate
for governor whom the convention will
nominate. This is wrong. The action
of the committee in electing chair
man whom the nominee for governor
two years ago didn't want was wrong
There should be no repetition or imita-
ton of it this year. BY courtesy and
by right the nominee is entitled to q
large voice in the choice of the man
who is to help make or mar his for
tunes and the fortunes of those running
with him and who is to spend his
money and the money of his friends,
We hope the members of the State cen
trail committee will show the gentle
man, whoever he may be, proper cour-
tesy, and refrain from permanent ac
ton about the chairman until they
know what he wants.

a Word Of Warning.
From the Hartford Co,,ra,,t


The republican state central commit
tee has been called to meet here March
20 to fix on the time and issue the call
for the state convention. That con-
vention will consist of delegates from
the towns, each town sending twice as
many as it has representatives in the
house. These will select four delegates
at large, and one delegate from each
county, twelve in all, to go to st.
Louis.
But that is not the whole work of this
convention. The delegates win also
trail committee. Each senatorial dis
trict will flock by ITSELF and select
it's man. This should be done with de-
liberation and in the interests of the
party, not of individuals. There have
been instances within recent years
when men got themselves upon the
committee before some of the delegates
from their districts knew the meet
ing had been called. No snaps are
wanted, especially none in this critical
year.
The state central committee has a
very responsible part to play, If it is to
be of any use at all. 1t should be made
up of men who know their districts and
whose districts know and respect them;
and they should be men who are there
to help the republican party, not to
heip themselves. When a state central
committeeman goes into close district
and lends mis- personal influence and
brings in some of the campaign funds,
he is doing what he was chosen to do.
