The drivers OF New York. who are organized
into the Horsemen's Assembly, met last night at
independence Hall, Twenty-seventh street, near

Liberty Dawn Association OF Coach Drivers. the
Private Coachmen's Union. the Ice Wagon
Drivers. tho Express Wagon Drivers, and the
Manure Cart Drivers.
The drivers all declare that they are not get
ting a square deal from the Magistrates or the
police when they run down or collide with
wheclmen. They assert that prejudice is all
against them, and that the bicyclists run matters
TO suit themselves.

1T is surprising how politicians will fool
themselves about the alleged labor VOTE" said a
delegate to the Central Labor Union yesterday.
no labor leader can control any vote but his
own. Yet there are politicians who talk OF the
labor vote as il it could be bought and sold or
as il any labor leader could control blocks OF
votes and make deals. Henry White had no
control over any votes. The leaders Of the Citi-
Zens' Union evidently thought he had, though
he never pretended to have. For the life OF me

that feud of long standing existed
between the parties, that Kirker was
seen going in the direction of the
place, shooting little before it hap

his arrest. lie was bound over in the

No Testing Matter,

Two of Brookhaven's most worthy
and honored citizens who took con-
spicuous part in the two citizens
meetings which resulted in the clos,
ing of the hop joint and the pledge
by the city administration of a more
rigid enforcement of the city ordi,
nances against law breakers, were car
featured and otherwise sought to be
brought into ridcule at the Railroad
Park last Saturday night by some of
the city's toughs or other enemies to
Jaw and order. Considering the time
and the method chosen for the at
tempted aspersion, so far as it had
the gentlemen at whom it was aimed
may we'll afford to consider it per-
'onal compliment distinguishing them
lbove their fellows as good citi-
zens, and give it no other
thought. If, however, on the 9th
n hand, it was aimed at them in
a representative capacity as leaders of
the law and order element of this city.
and means that men in Brookhaven
may not, in the exercise of their law
full rights and the discharge of their
duty as good citizens, take promi-
nent part in correcting fragrant and
confessed evils, without becoming
public targets for the lawless element
of the community to attack in the
dark,-if the Saturday night episode
means this, we say-then it is not only
to be viewed with serious concern, but
should be Indignantly resented by ev-
cry good law abiding citizen of Brook
haven. To regard it as testing mat
ter and of no significance, under these
circumstances, is like trifiing with fire
or dynamite. 1t is the spirit of
whitecapism mantle sting itself in a
different form, the spirit that despises
law and the things that make for the
peace and well being of society; and
the man calling himself a good citizen
who regards this affair with indiffer-
ence or as a joke, is in great danger of
living to rue his folly, especially if he
be a citizen of property and vested in
terests here, concerne about the future
progress and good reputation of this
growing little city.
