From New York Post.
1t is staggering to think of this
great instrument of the Constitu-
tion impeachment), laid up with
awe, as it were, for use against cor
ruption or oppression, employed
by men VIGOROUSLY corrupt to glut
their vengeance. Whatever the
faults and follies Of William Sui
ger, he might have stepped himself
in corruption, for all that Tam
many would have cared, had he
been willing to do in all respects
as he was bid by Murphy.
From Syracuse Herald.
The right will prevail. If the
Governor deserves removal, re-
moved lie will be, But it is "A
painful reflection to the people of
this imperial commonwealth that
the men interested with one of the
most solemn functions known to
our political system have SO woe
fully fallen short of the obvious
requirements of decency and dig
nifty.
From Brooklyn Eagle.
1t was the Governor himself who
said that only William Sulzer
could hurt William SulZer. Only
William Sulzer could deliver
William Sulzer into the hands oil
his enemies 1t is neither here nor
there to say that Murphy is deter
mined to destroy. The Governor
is vulnerable, if at all, not because
he has defed the leader of Tam
many Hall, but because he has
deserted the street called Straight.
From Rochester Times.
The character of the Governor
enemies is of no Importance now.
The important thing is that the
Governor of this state stands ac-
cused of perjury and grating, and
limping apologies, technical OBJ

and violent denunciations of Tam.

The whole matter is distressing
