McClellan,s Surprising Move.

Whatever may be the inner political mo-
tive. if any exists, Mayor McClellans ac-
ton yesterday in summarily removing from
office a park commissioner and the whole
board of civil service commissioners of the
city of New York for improper actions is
a move toward better conditions in the
management of municipal affairs. The case
is not difficult to understand in terms of
the well-known methods of partisan adj
ADMINISTRATION a park commissioner, finding a
number of laborers on his rolls who were not
vouched for by the political leaders of his
district. suspended them from work on the
ground that there nothing for them
TO do. But instead of removing them en-
tirely he kept their names on the rolls and
listed them as suspended without pay"
y little later he called upon the local civil
service board for a list of eligibles to fill
the places thus temporarily vacated in
stead of replacing the suspended ones on
the active pay roll. The newcomers proved
to be good Tammany men and were re-
tanned at their tasks while the suspend
ed ones were allowed to cool their heels
in the ante-rooms of the commissioner and
the district leaders awaiting the indorse-
ments that were not forthcoming. The
civil service reform league of New York
learned the facts and did some quiet in
vestigating, with the result of a protest to
the mayor, who. after vainly asking the
officials for convincing explanations finally
dismissed all of them, the park commits
sioner for planning the evasion of the law
and the civil service commissioners for per-
hitting it. Now New York is gaping in
wonder at the spectacle of Tammany-
elected mayor going with a sharp stick
after municipal officials who plan to Sc
cure employment of certified partisans of
their own stripe rather than to give the
Offices and the citys labor to all-comers In
order of application. II may be that there
is d fractional end to be served in this sud
den and dramatic shift of officials But
even so. Mayor Mcclellan has given evil
dence of a disposition TO deal directly and
wholesomely with the tricksters who would
make mockery of the civil service law
and then seek to excuse themselves with
the plea that the same thing has been
done before.

John R. Mclean.

Mr.. Mclean in Ohio during the closing
days of the campaign will be an interesting
figure The situation at home will probably
engage him but little, if at all. But Indiana
is next door, and something will be doing
there. The Hoosier state is rated as fighting
ground by the democrats, and whatever is
possible for the cause will be gratefully
received. Mr.. Taggart is to be congrat
ulated. Mr.. Mclean should prove of great
help to him. In addition to his large means
and knowledge of the game. he will bring to
his task familiarity with the field scarcely
less valuable than that of a native In
dianian. 1t has been some years since his
hand was shown in a presidential contest,
but it has probably not lost it's cunning.
Mr. Bryan did not appeal to the Ohioan,
but if Judge Parker does, we may expect
some vigorous work in the New Workers.

Shall Unions Be Incorporated

An interview which The Star prints today
with Mr.. c. Pelllgrini, former president of
the Argentine Republic, on the subject of
the labor problem will interest those Amer
leans who are sincerely anxious to adjust
the relations between capital and labor to
the point of equity and economy. Mr.. Pei
ligrini notes that a crisis in the labor field
is already approaching in Argentina, and
he hopes to return to his country armed
with information which may enable him to
propose a plan to prevent the impending
troubles. 1t Is sad reflection that there Is
little prospect that he will find the solution
of the problem in this country as matters
stand today. But it appears that he has
idea of his own. which, while by no
means novel in its basic principle, never
theless commends itself to the earnest
consideration OF practical sociologists Mr.
Pelligrini would have the labor unions or
ganized as incorporated companies, capable
of making contracts and liable for damages.
II bad faith is shown. This Is at the root
of the question. During the great coal
strike of two years ago the claim was re-
peatedly urged by the operators and mine
owners that they could not depend upon
the individual contracts entered into be-
tween themselves and their men because

Fairbanks and 1908.

This Is a yigilant old world The Spring
field Republican. after noting the fact that
the republicans express absolute commence
of the west, asks these questions about Mr.
Fairbanks stumping tour across the CONT
nent:
Does Mr.. Fairbanks think that the cattle
ranges are in danger of being carried by
the democrats? Or is he doing little cam
paigning in preparation for 190S?
No section can safely be sighted by either
side where there are two parties and both
of them active. The west is not like the
south The politics out there is OF a SIREN
nous character and nothing Is Obtained
without a struggle. Some of the democracy's
ablest leaders are western men, and some
of the smoothest working political machines
in the country operate beyond the Missls-
sippi Mr. Roosevelt is doubtless very pop
uar with the western men, but his CAM
paign managers are wise enough in culti-
waiting the field by the ordinary methods
1t may be that in undertaking the journey
Mr.. Fairbanks was not unmindful of the
future. He is comparatively young,
and undoubtedly a growing, man. A
great many of his friends think him worthy
of the presidency. He is not to be charged
with vanity if he agrees with them. He is
represent him as making a good impression.
What it will all come to after this campaign
is over is a question.
There are politicians who regard the vice
presidency as a grave For this reason
many of Mr. Fairbanks friends opposed
the mention of his name for the office and
regretted his nomination. They wanted
him to remain foot-loose and very much
alive for 1908. They quoted precedents to
show that the occupant of the place had
but rarely reached the White House by
election.
But the old order is changing Mr..
Roosevelt is the first man to reach the
presidency by the agency of death to COM
mand the support of his party for a term
of his own. Where others have failed he
has succeeded. And the democracy has at
last gone to the bench for its candidate.
After flirting in the years gone by with
Church, and Chase. and Davis, and Field.
it has now nominated Judge Parker. May
be the time has arrived, or is approaching,
when a man, after serving his party salts
factorily as Vice President by election, will
be able to achieve his party's supreme lead

Tom Watson in the East.

Mr. Watson is again in New York Com
paratively speaking, the east is not TO ;iim
1.-THE enemy's country" There may not be
many votes in that section for him, but
more, it is safe to say, than in the south.
Scattered through the states of New York,
New Jersey and Connecticut, and the mid
die states, are men who supported Mr..
Bryan from principle, and are not in SYM
pathy with the Parker organization of the
democratic party. Whatever their number,
their votes will be cast and counted, and
they will thus cut figure in the fight.
These men it, will pay Mr.. Watson to cap
ture if he can. He is in sympathy with
many of their aspirations, and while he
calls himself a populst and they call them
selves democrats, a little tfnkering would
produce a platform upon which all could
comfortably stand.
Judge Parker's friends are tagging Mr..
Watson as an assistant republican. He
should not be disturbed by that. General
Palmer was similarly tagged in the cam
paign of 1896. The Illinois man preferred
Mckinley to Bryan, and drew as many
votes as possible from the latter in the
interests of the former. His argument was
that the defeat of Mr. Bryan would put
an end to what he considered an anti-demo-
cratic propaganda under Mr. Bryan 8 lead
ership, and that the democracy would then
return to it's old position He accomplished
little, but that little helped the republicans
as he intended.
Mr. Watson prefers Roosevelt to Parker
for the reason that, as he reads the signs
of the times, day is almost at hand when
the people are going to divide sharply on
national issues, and men will be obliged to
stand forth in their true colors. He does
not want man in the White House about
whose political identity there is a doubt.
With Mr.. Roosevelt there, the issue will be
made up. Republicanism as a distinct chal-
lenge will appear, and all men opposed to
it can get together. But with Judge Parker
there, elected as a democrat but subscrib-
ing to policies which Mr.. Watson charac-
terizes as republican, confusion must re-
suit, and the inauguration of new order
of things be made the more difficult.
Mr., Watson as a populist retains much Of
his former democracy, while Mr.. Bryan as
democrat confesses to much sympathy
with popuhsm. Why the latter is not sup
porting the former In this race is one of the
curiosites of a remarkable mix-up.
