IN WOODRUFF’S SHOES, The main issue at Saratoga apparently 1s to discover ‘A Worthy successor of Mr. Timothy L. Woodruff as Lieu- “tenant-Governor. Mr. Woodruff's tenure of office hay- dng reached the limit of tolerance by Mr. Platt, he ts ‘mformed that he “has been treated in an unprece- ‘Mentedly generous way by his party, and {t would be ‘poor policy to get the people into the belfef that one ‘Person can confiscate an office for an indefinite period.” And Mr, Woodruff, hearing, yields gracefully to the in- “'evitable. “I would not accept a nomination under any “circumstances,” he eays. Mr. Platt, returning once ‘more to Saratoga for a convention, {s reported as look- fing old and thin and feeblo, but his word seems still to carry weight. A candidate for the place Mr. Woodruff has adorned for so many years ought to possess some of the personal ‘qualities that have made the present Incumbent so con- @picuously fit. Mr. Platt seems persuaded that George R. Sheldon is just the man. He is a banker and we ‘know that bis fortune is ample. But how about his good clothes and his good manners? Does he run to waistcoats? Is he as well up in parlor deportment as In politics? If the grange gets a little short financially will he write a check for five figures as cheerfully as for a church fair or a golf club? Political fitness is not every- thing in a Lieutenant-Governor. Beck from the Mines.—Mr. Quigg has emerged from his hole and brought the hole with him. As temporary chalr- man at the Republican convention he sounds his party's _ keynote—in harmony with Mr. Platts tuning-fork NEWSPAPER PUBLICITY. _ In the St. Louis boodling cases indictments for bribery or perjury havo been found against seventy-one persons, of whom three have been convicted with sen- tences aggregating seven years and seven officially de- clared fugitives from justice. Twenty alleged “boodlers” are now awaiting trial. The chicf witness against them fs ex-Delegaie Jobn K. Murrell, who surrendered solely ‘on account of the overtures made to him by the St. Louis Post-Dispatch, and whose confession enabled the au- thoritles to proceed intelligently against the suspected Men. No newspaper has ever performed a more im- portant service to a community or given so striking an exhibition of the power of the press to effect reforms through publicity. And it is to the press also that we owe the speedy capture of the murderer Young. His picture, enlarged from the Crusader office croup and prominently dis- played in The World, was spread broadcast in hundreds of cities and towns for thousands of eyes to sre. It was a foregone conclusion that the fugitive would be recog- nized. Chance ruled that Louis Goullat, the siation agent at the little Connecticut village of Stevenson, should note the resemblance of the man in tramp's dis- guise before him to the striking portrait in The World “and put his suspicions to account. ing Cases.—The Mayor has decided to tnqulre into every case of clubbing that has occurred in the last seven years.
