Letter to Seaman Quoted by

His Criticism of Smith:
New Man Is on Duty

MINEOLA, L. l., Nov. 6.-H. Ssewnrt
Mcknight, counsel to the Board OF Su-
pervisors OF Nassau County, who re
Gently was criticized by GoVerno or
Smith for calling the removal of Sher-
IF Phlncns Seaman unjust, wrote to
the Governor today rcitcrating his as
sertion and inclosing q letter which
the dcposcd Sheriff received from Mar
tin W. Littletcn.
u regard your removal" Mr. Little
ton wrote, "as an absolute abuse OF
arbitrary power. This rcmova! is not
in any sense mtigatcd or justified by
the feeble findings os the comms-
sioner.
II regret exceedingly to come to the
conclusion that you were removed for
political reasons. I dislike this CON
cluson because | dislike to believe that
in any matter affecting the welfare of
human being the passion Of politics
could ever prevail. and yet this CON
clusion IS constantly forcing itself into
my mind. 1t is forcing itself into my
mind because Of the utter failure Of
the case against you, Of the utter child
ishness and trviality Of the charges
made, of the utter fcebioncss Of the
proof. I am sure that every neighbor
end fellow citizen OF yours in Nassau
county, Wnclher democrat or kepuO-
lican, will deeply resent this exercise
Of arbitrary power. Whether that re-
sentiment viii 20 further than to re
assure you of their faith do not
know. I sincerely feel hurt, detected
and sad over your removal, and if il
should result in the election Of every
Republican candidate in Nassau Coun-
ty as a just rebuke to the unjustifiablc lie
use of arbitrary power would not be
surprised
Sheriff Seaman was removed upon
the recommendation Of a special COM
missioner, who had held hearings on
charges made against the Sheriff By
the Nassau County Association. The
charges, in general, were that disci-
plne was lax at the Nassau County
jail, and that suicides, like that OF Dr.
Walter X. wilkins, easily might take
place. Irregularities in the conduct Of
the Office also were alleged.
Joseph +. Davis, the new Sheriff
assumed his duties to-day. He said he
would make no staff changes. 1t is
regarded as likely, therefore. that

DR.. Eaton, who recently returned
from war work in Europe. said he
