coRRUPTIoN REBUKED.

The Democrats Of New York who were
votes to the supremacy Of Tamnany
hall have wrested power from that or
ganization. The truest test of the right
fulness of their action may be found in
the general pleasure with which the re-
suit will be hailed throughout the entire
country, by Democrats as well as Repub-
leans.
Corruption has ever been the curse of
Tammany, but never to the extent which
has prevailed in recent years. The or
ganization had ceased to be regarded as
political body. and by the mass Of the
disinterested and Independent voters was
regarded as den of public and private
thieves and murderers
Few will mourn the result aside from
the politicians who have endured so Sc
we're a public rebuke. Tamn1any tempted
it's fate. 1t had introduced and MAIN
tanned the principle of private gain,
whether legitimate or illegitimate, as the
rule Of conduct in political life. 1t had

haitian, no matter what it's politics, would
print line in behalf of the recognized
Democratic organization of the city, is
pitifully instructive In the effort to deter
mine the underlying cause of Tammany's
downfall.
The moral of the result is not far to
seek. Thievery in politics is no longer a
controlling force. The adherents OF
neither party will sustain corrupt repre-
sentatives in Office. Tammany was over
thrown by Democrats. Without Demo-
Gratis its undoing was impossible
AS in New York, so in Philadelphia and
Pennsylvania, public debauchery has been
terribly rebuked. The Republican city,
like the Democratic city, appears at last
to have dethroned it's corruptionists
Quayism and Crokerism are alike spurned
by honest electors. In the one city
decent Republicans left their party affilia-
tons to accomplish the result. In the
other decent Democrats refused longer
to stand sponsor as party men for what
their sense of public decency repudiated
The lesson for Democrats contained in
Tammany's defeat is simple 1t teaches
that Democracy stands for honest,
economical government. The party or
ganization which does not live up to this
prime requirement cannot arrogate to
itself the designation or the charaettar of
Democracy. Long years e ascendancy
had made Tan'.c-.isany reckless and dis

cred the penalty. 1t will be gratifying

1t positive impertinence for freshman

knew what he exactly meant but me, and
1 said nothing
A big sophomore, who played third

Suppose she'd sooner wear the fresh
pin? You fellows make me tired"
In time the pin was finished and I ex-
perieneed the delight Of seeing Jessie the

she first wore 1t into chapel. My delight
was somewhat elouded, however, by the
knowledge that there was an idea abroad
that L was infringing upon the sacred
rights of a senior. I heard nothing to this
effect, but I just felt it was the case.
Jessie seemed pleased beyond expression.
Still there were shadows too vague to be
alluded to, but oppressive and full of
fo.ebodings
The following Sunday evening I called
at her house to ask her to go to church
with me. To my disrnay and surprise
Richard was there talking with her
father, and when church time came he
marched off with Jessie, and I was In

name was Richard, was especially atten-

our etiquette on these matters was very
strict, and as no one was supposed to fall

how glad I was when 1t was over and

Jessie lived on Indiana avenue, several

Jessie was a "co-ed." She was not

Messrs. Lawler, May. O'Connor,
Foelsen and Haas are Democrats. Their
selection by Mayor Smith was no doubt
influenced by that circumstance, just as
their high standing in the business COM
munity and their thorough familiarity
with and devotion to the interests of
the city Of st. Paul were factors in de-
termining their selection. If the Pioneer
Press can point to any provision of the
charter which limited the right Of the
mayor to select all who were avowed
Democrats in his appointment of police
commissioners, or if it will show that bet
ter men could have been selected from
any other party, its structures on the
Democratic local administration may not
be regarded as wholly without founda-
ton. But it cannot, and 1t knows it
cannot, comply with either requirement.
Let us remind our contemporary Of
something: The present makeup of our
police administration is wholly Of Re-
publican origin. 1t was not seriously
thought, by Republicans when that char
ter commission was appointed, or when
it reported its police administration plan,
that Democratic mayor could be elect
ed. Here was the fatal mistake. from
our contemporary standpoint. A Demo-
cratic mayor was elected. and he APP
pointed a Democratic police board. The
result was principally a case of some
wise Republican politicians being hoist
by their own petard.

The Clio b e does not seek to inject
itself into any passing occasion of disa-
greement between those two leading and
distinguished Republican officials-Hon
Robert @. Dunn and Gen. C. C. An
drews. Indeed it is rather disposed
toward regret that anything whatever
should have arisen between these gentle
men to disturb the serenity Of their ma
lures.
But it is autloritatiyely stated that the
distinguished state auditor has intimated
that there are other ways quite as ef-
fective for extingushing forest fires as
the one of lecturing and writing pieces
for the papers about them, especially
when such literary activity Is carried on
far away from the scenes of timber de-
struction. T h e G 10 b e, Of course, in
common with other discerning minds,
thinks that it has discovered in this
suggestion of the state auditor an inti-
nation that our more agile than youthful
state fire warden is derelict in his duty.
Can this be so? What is it that the
state auditor demands Of the state fire
warden? That he shall don a suit of
mackinac or of deerskin and take to the
woods? Has the statesman from Prince
ton no bowels? Has he in the free rein
which he allows to his Imagination

an ornament to the official life of the
state. His office in itself reflects the
glory of our legislature and appeintive
system. He knows more, as the, fruit
of years of deep meditation concerning
the needed preservation of otr wooded
domain, than all the state auditors that
ever audited. Auditor Dunn is not just.
He cannot be. He has never heard one

this purpose. AS Doc Ames has taken

as it appears at first sight.
