The bosses themselves have made it so. The bosses are in con- tempt of the public interest. It would have been good politics for Mr. Murphy to indorse Mr, Jerome, but the risk to contracts and graft would have been too great to make it good pocket policy. By indorsing Mr. Jerome Mr, Odell might have selzed an oppor- tunity. He chose instead to satisfy a factional grudge and to, maintain that sort of honor which is among—bosses, While Mr, Odell’s county convention programme was {n preparation the ery was raised that Armitage Mathews had been hounded to his death by Mr, Jerome, It fs true that the unfortunate Mathews was hounded, But not by the public prosecutor. The dogs on the trail were from Mr, Odell's own kennels. It was their mission to prevent, even by desperate means, the exposures which were sure to reach important figures in the Odell camp, were the Mathews prosecution pushed to a finish, There is abundant evidence that the District-Attorney understood and was not without compassion for the young lawyer whose tempera- ment had made him the easy instrument of stronger men, But justice for agile rascals is not to be tempered by mercy for one who is weak in their hands, The dogs of all the bosses’ kennels are now in full fue and cry against Jerome, tow In taking the issue as to the District-Attomey-out of the fist of party affairs, the bosses have raised it to the chief place in the campaign. It Is now the squarest popular, non-partisan issue that was ever pre- sented in New York. Mr. Jerome stands before the public an officer-who has done his duty! and has not been afraid, He is turned down in the “regular” conventions at the will of practical poli “practical” belng an adjective that covers a multitude of meanings—whom he has made afraid, There is no other candidate whose importance to the public welfare fs defined with anything like such clearness and strength At the moment, New York is shocked and angry at the defiance flung in its face by the bosses in their rejection of Jerome. And yet, rightly regarded, that which the short-sighted party dic. tators have presented to the people is an opportunity. The voters as a mass have only to rise to the occasion—and above the party lines—to provide their own cause for rejoicing in their own Strength, Somebody has defined democracy as the substitution of election by the incompetent many for appointment by the corrupt few. The re-elec- tion of Jerome would correct this definition by proving the competence of the many, “The New York kick,” sald The Evening World the other day, “goes fo waste, It scatters,” Let us get it all together for the fight the bosses have invited, | eT KITTYBIANCA, AN ORNAMENT, The git stood on the burning deck..| 79 longed to sit in Congress, Whence all but her hed fted. ; She wouldn't leave until she got Her hat on straight, sho sald, Bt.
