Evening Published by tho Press Publishing Company, No, 63 to @ Park Row, New Tork, | Batered at the Post-Ofice at New York as Second-Class Mail Matter, NO, 16,145, eee Why Jerome ?—Il. | Because In the strong phrase of Elihu Root, he “hates a thief and cannot be hushed up or put to sleep | by any influence whatsoever.” i Because, as Felix Adler says, “we know that to the full extent of his power he will be an enemy of graft and grafters, a very stumbling block in their way.” Because, in the words of Joseph Choate, ‘the people admire the hon- est man, the incorruptible man, the brilliant, courageous, chivalric man who is fighting alone and unassisted against all the powers of darkness in the ctty.” | Because he has frustrated a conspiracy which sought by his defeat to remove the only barrier to a carnival of corruption and misrule, Because he has risen above party domination and led a movement for | Independence and for the redemption of the city from machine rule the Ike of which has never been seen in New York. | Because his candidacy has broadened out beyond local ines and be-| come a national issue, In a pecullar sense it involves the city’s honor. | Shall the administration of the greatest bureau of the criminal law in the United States remain honest, efficient, fearless and unpartisan, as| Verome has made it, or shall it be prostituted to boss subserviency? | Shall the county’s chief prosecuting officer be free and footloose, as| Jerome has been, or shall he wear the collar of boss bondage? At a tima when 600 indictments for the more serious crimes are about to be tried] the question is most pertinent. With the eyes of the nation on her, is New York to bow again to) Murphyism or accept the opportunity to take her place among free cities? Is the principle of self-government to prevail or the personal political power under which the rogue and the grafter, the corporation corruption- | ist and the lesser crook count on finding shelter? It is for this man who “hates a thief and cannot be hushed up” that! 4 the vote of the conscientious citizen must be cast. He has made his oftice | clean and effective. He will make it yet cleaner and more effective if re- elected, He has “made good,” ina word, and in that fact lies the confi- Went expectation that he will do better. | It is this expectation and the fear it arouses that has coalesced against | \i i i | Ped Jerome the opposition of the criminal elements of every class and kind, That is why the whole company of grafters is against him, from the] he corporation grafter down to the party henchman ff after the demands of his boss have been sat and plunderers of all ra e It is because of a common fear .
