Tho Lesson Of tho Harrity Case.

The resolve Of the Pennsylvania Democrats
to expel WILLIAM f. HARR1TY from Penn
sylvania's seat in the Democratic National
Committee, shows that Organism, pledged
as 1t Is to national dishonor, has not in
herited Mr.. CLEvELAND's dishonesty in
the matter Of platforms. Mr.. CLEVELAND
disgraced his party and demoralized It's
politics utterly by treating the platform on
which 1t attained office as though 1t were
waste paper. Being without the customary
moral sense, he felt no moral obligation
to pledges. So when his time In the White
House ended he left his party Inundated
by the passage Of a protective tariff and a
Populistic income tax. After dishonesty
on such a scale. we do not hesitate to ex-
press our admiration for the sincerity with
which the Democrats of to-day insist that
their platform of principles is to be sus-
tained without equivocation.
Mr.. HARRITY, the Cleveland leader of
Pennsylvania, pretends to be for honest
money, yet he voted for BRYAN. He Is a
trimmer of the Cleveland school. He
knows that the Pennsylvania Democrats
are irrevocably bound by the National Dem.
ocratic platform; but for the greater COM
fort of himself and friends he would have
adopted some straddle or evasion of 1t, to
bamboozle the innocent and to give counte-
nance to trickery. The Pennsylvanians are
through with HARRITY and deceit. They
are for their master, the Chicago platform,
openly, and are tired of the despicable
policy which made the Democratic party
commit the fraud of betraying its platform.
A year ago the Mugwump IDOLS selfish
op,hition for n tbir5 far-, onJoJ L.
ferring upon Organism the prestige of its
defeat; and the Democratic vote for the Chi
cago platform, with all it's shocking notions,
was larger by million than it had ever been
before. The Cleveland Democrats, or the
National Democrats, are in the same sinis-
ter business. BY their persistent efforts to
cover up the Democratic platform so that
they may sit upon it comfortably, they are
again making the B~ryanites conspicuous
for honest dealing.

The People That Como to Us.

Next to the extraordinary falling off In
the immigration of the last fiscal year, the
noteworthy fact is the relative changes
among the various nationalities.
Italy once more furnished the greatest
number of arrivals, 54,431 out of a total of
$50, $50, this last, by the way, being a de-.
crease of ] 12,435, or more than one-third,
from the preceding twelvemonth, and the
lowest total since 1879. Next came Aus.
tria-Hungary. with 1901 Ireland, with
2s,421; Russia, with 22,75O; Germany,
with 22,533; Sweden and Norway,
with 1886, and England, with 9,974.
But what is remarkable ia that while
Italy's immigration fell off only about
one-sixth, that of Russia, and also that
of England, decreased about one-half.
Sweden's decreased about one-third and
Ireland's not quite a third. Russia sent us
22,3SE fewer immigrants last year than
the year before, while Italy's quota only
dropped Off 5000.
Years ago the Irish used to surpass in
numbers all other immigrants, but now
Italy is at the top, followed by the other
countries just mentioned. For the five
years ending In 1895, Germany led. with
436.4lO. against 32o.426 for Russia and

Kearney on Tammany.

Mr.. EDWARD KEARNEY, who used to DO q
Tammany politician Of fair size, and may
perhaps be of even greater size now that
the East Fourteenth street concern Is I'M
der the control Of inefficient persons with
no ideas, was reported In the Herald OF
Monday as saying that he expressed 1.-THE
sentiment of substantially all the influen-
tial men in the Tammany organization "
when he said that "Tammany will not in
dorse the Chicago platform but make the
fight on State issues" He also declared
that the free coinage sentiment Is not as
strong this year as it was last, and "has
especially lost ground in the last three or
four months"
Whatever else Tammany has done, 1t has
~striven to be regular, except In the notable
case of its bolt directed against Governor
ROBINSON in 1879. That was q personal
matter, a matter of candidates and not of
platforms. In boiling the Democratic plat
form, which 1t would do II 1t omitted to
indorse the Chicago platform, Tammany
would simply put itself outside of the
Democracy, a position not helpful in local
affairs and ruinous to any Tammany inf1u-
ence on national affairs by means Of the
Democratic party. If Tammany is not reg
ular, it is nothing. 1t has no other merit.
According to Mr.. EDWARD KEARNEY, it is
going to throw this merit away. Perhaps
he is trying to test the feeling Of Tam,
many. In that case the results are not
likely to be satisfactory.
Either Tammany is a part Of the Demo
cratic party, or it is not. If 1t is, 1t will
indorse the Democratic platform, and not
try to evade Democratic issues. If it does
try, it will hear from its followers.

SENECA FALLS, Aug. 3l.-In n grove near hero

Increase the Artillery!

A board Of officers, called together by
Secretary ALGER, meets at Washington to-
day to consider the question of the coast
defences, with special reference to their gar
risons. 1t will compile a schedule of the
various batteries at each port, and point
out the number and position Of the troops
required for them. either as caretakers or
as full reliefs of gunners. 1t will also show
what additional sites for batteries should
be procured, while the needs Of new or en-
larged barracks will be considered, and
estimates made regarding drainage, water
supply, wharves. and communication by
water between detached batteries. Con-
gress has called for a report on barrack ac-
co~mmodations, and this board will add the
other matters just spoken of. Finally, the
redistribution of the present artillery force
will be considered, and also the increase that
is hoped for.
The board consists of Col. RODGERS, Fifth
Artillery, commanding Fort Hamilton;
Col. HAsBRoUCK. Fourth, on duty at Fort
Monroe, and Capt. MILLER, Assistant
Quartermaster. 1t might be we'll II the
artillery arm had more to say in regard to
the coast defences, since it is to serve the
batteries and other appliances that make
up that defence. But, at all events, it is
high time hat an Artillery Board should
set forth to Congress the real needs Of The
personnel of the seaboard forts.
We now rave in operation an adequate
system under which heavy guns and NOR
tars n their carriages are turned out, and
emplacements are constructed for them.
During the last two years, especially, Con-
gress has been liberal in it's provisiono for
new batteries. But the guns must have
men to work them; and. apart from serv-
ing the guns in action, the pressing need Is
that of men to take care of them in time of
peace, so that they may not deteriorate.
To supply these caretakers and also q
nucleus of raine gunners, large enough to
secure a few for each fort, Is the present
aim of the artillery. Having done so well for
the guns, Congress should next turn its at.
tention to supplying. through additional
artillery regiments, the men imperatively
needed even in peace.

tria-Hungary, 242, 2S2 for Ireland, 218,SoO
for England, and 211,s44 for Norway
and Sweden. And yet during the entire
ten years between 1920 and 1880 there had
been only 81 arrivals in the aggregate from
Norway and Sweden, and Of also from Nus
sia and Poland. In fact, out of a total Oh
e45,31s arrivals from Russia and POLAND
for the seventy.flve years between 1921 ana

since 1880.

600 from Austria. Hungary In the same
period, all but a little over So,ooo ave
arrived since the year 1880.
Germany's immigration in some former
years of great total arrivals was prodigious,
exceeding a quarter of a million In a
twelvemonth, as against less than one-tentn
as much last year; but during the decade
ending in 1880 our German immigration
was only 6,761, against 7s,SO3 from Great
Britain and Ireland, whereas during the
ten years ending In 1890 1t had risen to
1882, $40, against 1,4e2,s39 from Great

u immigrants with 4,940,63s for
the seventy.hve years ending in 1895,
Ireland following with 3.723,356. then
England with 2,847, $50, and Norway and
Sweden with 1.138,s75. This order holds

studied is the amount Of money which
immigrants bring to the country. During
the last year the Germans led off with

The English brought $254,346, or about
$3.50 each the Irish 1871 .525, or a little
over $13 each. and the Italians $51e.234,
or rather more than SO each.

Mr.. Wilson and the Botanic Garden,

The Park Department Of New York city,
and the Mayor, will find timely instruc-
tion in the case of the addition made to
the New Rochelle soldiers monument by
Mr.. FRANCIS WILSON. Mr.. WILSON looked
in artistic ignorance upon the mum
and thought hat it would be better
with a PEDESTAL: and with generous
and otherwise excellent motives he
obtained permission to make the al
teration. Instead. however, of appealing
to some qualified person for advice and a
design, he employed a stage artist, and
treated the monument according to the lat
ter's notions. And the result is q monstros-
ityso homogeneous and absurd that the good
people of New Rochelle have been moved
to throw off the restraints of courtesy and
to ask that the new gift be taken away.
We feel for Mr.. WILSON, but he deserves
what he got, and the New Rochelle people
deserve praise for striking 30 boldly for
what Is sound and right. For works of
public art artists are needed, not only to
execute designs made, but to study the
ground and to make the design in harmony.
But surprising as it Is, the New Rochelle
affair was only a repetition of u bigger and
RTOSSeT case OF ana Vul-
garity in the Botanical Garden in Bronx
Park. The Botanical Society, very respect,
able gentlemen, and, like Mr.. WILSON. filled
with good motives. but, like him, out of
touch with either art or artists. employed
a very inferior set of men to make a
plan for the garden, and doubtless imposed
some of their own crude fancies upon theirs.
The plan was 80 ignorantly and Ill con-
ceived that three authorities of in~disputa-
BILE standing, employed by the city, con-
demned it radically, as the untutored COM
mon sense of New Rochelle has condemned
the Wilson work. But Notwithstanding
the Botanical Garden wa a public work,
intrusted to public officials, the Park Com.
missioners waved aside the city's experts,
and, succumbing to the pressure of the
Botanical Society, adopted the latter's
plans. And the Mayorlikewise had n hand
in 1t, to the scandal of the city.
The Botanical Society seems to have nc
conscience about the affair, and it is past
the understanding of the Park Commits
sioners. There Is still a check In the Board
of Estimate and Apportionment, and OF
that Board the Mayor Is a member. Car
he not play the man and act for theinhabi
tants of New York. as the people of New
Rochelle have acted In the case that con
