The Infarny of the
New Orleans Police.

Police Inspector Whitaker, OF New
Orleans, was guilty of as Infamous
a piece of murderous rowdyism as
ever disgraced a uniform, when, back
ed up by Eve detectives, with drawn
pistols. he invaded the office of the
New Orleans World and fired twice
at J. M. Leveque, editor of the World,
after an exchange OF blows, in which
both say that Whitaker was the ag-
gressor.
Whitaker violated general law by
the heading of hostile police invasion
of building in which he had no legal
business. He admits that he took the
detectives to prevent interference
while he and Leveque settled matters.
This alone would demand his dismis-
sal with dishonor from the high office
he fills.
Being the deliberate, premeditated
aggressor and having committed de-
liberate and premeditated assault and
battery, he had no right under the
law to draw his pistol-still less to
use tin self-defense, even if his
life had been in indisputable danger.
Whitaker is a lawyer of no small ex-
perience at the criminal bar, and he
knew this. He has not even the ex-
euse OF ignorance OF the law.
Had he killed Leveque-or had his
two shots killed anyone-he would
have been guilty of murder in the
For him, then, to have done what
he did, to take along five members
OF the police force to help him, is
prima facie eyidence-pToof, accord
ing to recognized rules of evidence
that Joe Leveque and the World were
not wrong when the World editorially
accused the police inspector of being
a bully and of using the police force
to bully with
That was the charge which so
aroused Whitaker that he did what
he did. And what he did proved
Leveque right in all three charges
that Whitaker is a bully, that he uses
the force as a means of bullying, and
that he is unfit for the office he held.
Not since the days when reconstrIc-
tion police arrested a whole newspa-
per, locking the forms up in Jail with
the people OF the paper, has New Or
leans been the scene of as infamous
and pusillanimous Il piece Of police
tyranny-so aggravated as to be gro
tesque, and so exaggerated that it
would be ludicrous-in the absence
OF any casualtes-were it not that
Whitaker, lawyer and police head Of
great city, violated every principle
of decency by conduct that was as
cOwardly as it was malicious, and
more Of a blow at the foundations of
law and orderly virtue of his office
and his knowledge OF the law-than is
the work of the mob that shoots,
StrangleS or even burns its victims.

Marse Henry has high words of
praise for Booker Washington. In
the Interest OF the solution of the vex-
ing problem of which Washington is
a part, and at least to the extent TO
which the public agrees with Marse
Henry, it is TO be hoped that the
crucible OF time will prove the Wat

his significance to be truer than the
Kentuckian's estimate Of w. J. Bryan.

SOME ASPECTS OF
THE NATIONAL CAMPAIGN.

The democratic party is not one
man party, nor is the nomination 60
ing to Mr.. Bryan by default. Mr.. Bryan
will be nominated for the simple reas-
on that he is the choice of the prepon-
derating majority of the men who con-
stitute the party. There are many dem
ocrats of renown who are worthy of
the nomination, but 1t appears that
they are not the choice of the party
this year. Governor John A. Johnson Is
good democrat, and a splendid man,
but he is a stranger to the great body
of the party at this time. In time, pes
sibly, the country may become i'm
pressed with his availability and nom
mate him.-Houston Post.

If there is sincerity in the sugges-
ton often made OF late south of the
Ohio river that a southern man should
be nominated by the democrats for
president why is there no movement
in that section favorable to Joseph w.
Folk of Missouri? Mr.. Folk is a native
of Tennessee and came to manhood
there. He has lived for some years
in Missouri, now classed as a western
state, but formerly identified with the
solid south" He is a southern man

record in a state which, so far as Sec
tional lines are concerned, cannot be
called northern, whatever else it may
best. Louis Post-Dispatch.

So far as funds are concerned, the
next national campaign is going to be
conducted by both parties on a very
different basis from any campaign OF
recent years. The federal legislation
forbidding national banks to contrib
ute to any party funds, and what is
more important, forbidding corpora
tons to contribute to national or con-
gressfonal campaign funds, will have
its effect. Then, too, there IS apt to
be a greatly lessened inducement for
the heavy contributors of the past to
take an active interest in either side
of the contest. Perhaps, even, there
will be no inducement at all. Which
would be all the better.-Chicago Rec

The skirmishing preliminary to the
contests in the national conventions of
the political parties is attracting a
great deal of attention in most states
and all indications point to a most ex-
citing republican gathering in Chicago.
Owing to very peculiar political cOndi-
tons, unexpected action may occur in
this convention. There Is every pros
pect at the present time that there
will be a bitter fight among the repub-
licans for delegates. Already this is
foreshadowed by reports from Wash
ington which declare that veteran pol
iticians are fearful that the republi-
can party may be shaken to its foun-
dations by the warning factions.-New-
port News Press.

these mothers and children shall not be

the further maintenance OF the two
camps. additional funds are needed.
