A NATIONAL CALAMITY.

The loss OF such an official as Mayor
Gaynor by means so foul as that Of as
sassinatlon would have been another
national calamity, similar TO the cases
OF Lincoln. GARFIELD, and Mckinley.
Assassination has no legitimate place
In any country; oven in the most des-
potic and tyrannical governments, II
usually hinders more than II helps the
cause II was meant to aid But in a
republic such as this it is truly crime
unspeakable.
We do not know that ibe fact has
been better stated anywhere than in
the columns OF New York contem-
porary, which characterizes the at
tempted murder as the assertion of
one mans will against the win of mill
lions, as an absolutism that IL match
less in all the bloody records OF power
and crime as an attempt to kill not
only a man but his office. TO nullify
not ony the law but government, to
change not only incumbents but sys-
TENS and policies. TO substitute the
rule of one for the rule Of the majority.
BY the Inauguration OF sweeping re-
forms, simple yet efficient to realize
vast economies for the people, the
Mayor had done such efficient service
az almost to disarm honest criticism.
In this process Il was inevitable that
some should suffer from rigid retrench-
ment OF municipal OUTLAWS. Those who
had profted under the old regime OF
city government would be sure TO re-
ceive a set back under the new one.
For the people TO regain the rights
usurped by tho favorites OF unjust
privilege. the latter must surrender
some Of their positions and emolu-
ments. one OF these madly magnifed
his own loss Of a salary into pre-
tended case of an assault Of wealth
against poverty and Of the power Of
the state against the weakness Of tho
single citizen. His assumption really
was that the city government owed
him living and that the government
was Instituted to provide him with
position and salary But. as the
World points out, governments re-
publican in form are not instituted
among men 10 provide them with bread /
and butter. with work and wages. with
wealth and princely estates, but to
protect them Justly In their lawful i'm
dustry and enterprise To the growth
OF the fierce and false idea that gov
ernments. especially those Of rich mum
lcipalities, are bound to care for the
idle and dissolute Is no doubt due In
part Of the tragic event
