If the Republicans in the Board Of Po-
lice Commissioners think they are going
to catch Chief Of Police Murphy nap
ping, they viii find they are barking up
the wrong tree. Chief Murphy is thor
ough policeman. He knows his bust
ness from a to 2, and what is more he
enjoys the confidence of the people The
resolutions Of the Police Board holding
the chief responsible for the enforcement
of all laws were designed for a purpose
and the purpose was to put the chief in
hole. But Chief Murphy isn't so easily
fooled. No one will be surprised if the
Commissioners back down and tell the
chief that the resolutions were not in

How would any Republican in New Jer-
sey who had for years borne the heat
and burden Of tae fray like TO be treated
in this way by an aposrate Democrat
whom he had placed in an important
and well paid office?
But the Colonel's grievance against
the Fagan-Record combine is not all on
account of personal considerations. He
thinks the Pagan administration has
been an almost utter failure in the way
of good government It has fooled the
people from year to year with high
sounding and lavish promises of the
great things il proposed to do; but it
hasn't done them. There has been a lu-
dicrous disparity between its promises
and its performances. The most ap-
| parent results of Mayor Fagan's admin
istration so far appear to have been the
spectacular raising of valuations for tax
alton; the number Of lawsuits brought
without much result the disgraceful and
dangerous condition of public thorough
fares; the absence of harmony between
the chimmerical and corporate interests
desiring to make Improvements. and the
city administration. resulting in loss of
capital which would be invested in the
city; the failure to erect a city hospital
