he refuses to make known the contents,
he intimates that Brittyn killed himself
because Nan Patterson had scorned his

During Nan Pattersons recent soiourn

A POOR WAY TO HELP.

Many things are appearing in a few news
papers about Governor Hughes which, if they
lack the intention, may possibly have the ef-
rect OF making some trouble for his admins
tration. 1t has seemed as If they might be
wantonly mischievous, but on consideration we
have dismissed that hypothesis. They are fool

young persons similar to, If not identical with.

irreparable injury on District Attorney Jerome

81 Paul, Alexander Hamilton and Abraham
Lincoln would despair of vindicating They are

way, but the disposition is the same. and the,
result might not be widely different if the Gov

soever when It comes to usurping power and
denying political rights in a party convention
But If government is to be purified It is just
as important that no mans vote be stolen IN
the process of nominating candidates as in the
process of electing them. We have acted too
much hitherto the theory that political par
ties are voluntary associations capable of gov
erning themselves and determining the rights
of their own members But when the machin-
cry of party organization is used to violate
recognized rights and to defeat justice the free
choice Of public officers is as much hindered
and corrupted as if voters are bribed and cleo
ton records falsfied. The Democratic party
though ostensibly the champion of equality and
majority rule, has in its own internal govern
ment too frequently followed the principle that
might makes right. In state conventions the
leaders in control have not hesitated to trample
on party rules and reverse popular verdicts.
The unseating of the Queens County delega-
ton at Buffalo last fall was q shocking defiance
Of equity. Yet it was entirely consistent with
Democratic practices in the past and with prac-
tees tolerated to some extent in other par
ties.
There should be some means of redressing
such ourageS. If a convention Gusts delegates
unJustly it should be called to account in the
courts and its nominees should be excluded
from the official ballot Governor Hughes seems
TO suggest that some such redress Is afforded
IN our present election statutes. But if not the
| Legislature would do well to follow his advice
and supply remedy. In other states disputes
| over convention rulings have been carried into
| the courts, and 1t would be q powerful deter
| rent to such rough house methods as were ap-
| Piled at Buffalo If INSCRIPTIONS party leaders
were made to realize that they would be held
! to account rigidly for falsifying party action
| as for corruptng the franchise
