THE COURT AND CRAIG.

HE Sunday Star seems to think that the de-
- oison of the court in regard to the con-
tested election cases is directly responsible for
the malodorous appointment OF Craig to be an
election officer in the Second district of the
Fourth ward.
We gather from its statements. although
hope that we are f error in this opinion, that
tain politicians think they can do as they please
and escape the consequences, just as Craig has
escaped trial for completely in alleged frauds be-
cause Of the decision declaring the election in
valid
The Journal fails to see that the court is
in any way directly responsible for the appoint
ment of Craig The court decided the election
case according to the views of the majority of the
judges on a technical point The court could not
consider what the effect Of its decision would be
upon Craig and, of course would not Lawyers
and laymen will differ as to the correctness Of the
courts attitude but we do not think that any
politicians will gain comfort from the decision
Of the Judges in this matter
The record of the Judges in dealing with other
cases involving violations of the election laws is
certainly not such as would bring Joy to political
manipulators The Star could have very we'll
said all that it did say without dragging in the
court

RULE OF MONEY oLIGARcHY.

GONE folk, big fnanciers, evidently think that

successors of !. Pierpont Morgan whom they re-

There is but one Morgan and there cannot be
a second. says Mr.. Thomas +. Ryan himself a

while the ship of industry will be piloted so that
it will not hit on the rocks, according TO Mr.
Ryan.
That is the view OF good many men Of the
Wall Street way of thinking. There should be
no understanding Of their power either. Some
gueless folk, according TO the Wall Street view,
may think Congress ar Washington has some
thing to do with governing the nation and others

CUT OUT CRAIG.

HE best thing that the Department Of Elec'
n tons can do with regard to the appoint
nent OF Richard +. Craig TO be an election officer
in the Fourth district of the Second ward is to
name some one else for the place.
AS we said, from the low point OF view Of prac-
teal politics the appointment of Craig was blum
der and unwise. From the point of view of com
mon decency in politics it was preposterous and
not 10 be thought of.
The last state election should have taught the
men responsible for the appointment that they
cannot hv in the face of decenoy without being
rebuked at the polls The Republicans should
carry the coming state election by good ma
iority and they will do so unless they commit
such follies as that illustrated in the appoint
ment Of Craig. The returns of the last state
election looked like crazy quilt so mixed up
were they. We want no repetition at the COM
ing election
Craig should resign and clarity the situation.
And the sooner the better.
