[ MUST BE a stunted and myopic mind that harps on the im- peachment of Gov. Sulzer as a triumph for Murphy. Murphy, the tireless, squatting before the telephone the night long, fight- ing the great fight; Murphy, victory won, seeking his well-earned rest; Murphy, elated at his triumph, receiving the congratulations af his friends—we are sick of the picture. What is this “triumph”? Confusion and conflict rending the government at Albany; New York’s Ohief Executive desperately gresping for means to save himeelf from final discredit and ruin; the Banpire State disgraced and dishonored in the eyes of the nation—e fixe triumph! The people of the State are not rejoicing with Murphy. They are thinking of what is to come. Will the impeachment proceedings, the inevitable charges and counter-charges thet must run alongside, help explain how Temmany is able to put men of ita own mould in High offices of public trast to extol or pull down as it chooses? Will ight from new angles play upon the methods which make it possible for a Murphy to boast that he can make and break a Governor of New York? The final etudy cf Murphy’s “triumph” may well furnish strength end courage for a supreme effort to isolate and destroy the gigantic petitical force which Murphy uses brazenly to impose his will for qned or evil upon this Ltate. —_—_—_—9———— A Chicago county official declares that “the human scrap-pile ts cluttered wp with the idle rich who sit around luxurtous hotels and watering places with nothing ¢o do but overeat and sleep.” Some of them do far less farm on the ecrap-pile than they would most anywhere else. ‘ en THE MAYOR PRESENTS— RECOMMEND to visitors in town New York's latest Rough-housing citizens, a nightly strong-arm act by the police, specially devised and produced /by His Honor the Mayor. Fifty or more policemen rush into a restaurant, drag out the cus- tomers, men and women, old and young, and drop them on the side- walk. Broken dishes, spilled food, torn hats and clothing, every excitement of a first-class riot, and all guaranteed real and genuine. The performance is unique because the police, feeting that they have special license from the Mayor to do things they arrest other people for doing, bring zest to their work. A large number of spectators can be accommodated in the street, and groans, hoots and catcalls, harmonizing with the general disorder, will be appreciated. Reasonable safety for bystanders, but no mercy te those who try to get a meal. For the benefit of tinrid persons in the audience who respect the law and have heard that the courts condemn the spectacle as “Alegraceful, illegal, an incitement to riot and anarchy,” we cannot too often repeat that the Mayor is running this show and the courts can go hang. ——-4 2 —_—_ Wf the dressmakers ere right about the fall styles, “slits without any opening, shadow skirts without any view,” will presently darken the prospect and we shell know indeed that o “The melancholy days are come, ‘The eaddest of the year.” ——+»- NEXT TIME PRISON. IVE MANUFACTURERS arraigned in the Court of Special Sessions, charged with locking their factory doors on their workers, found that excuses were weaker than facts. One employer ssid he only piled boxes in front of a door to save room; another explained a patent lock supposed to open easily from the inside, while « third protested that his doors had been locked “inad- vertently” the day the inepector came round. These and similar explanations notwithetandmg, the Court sharply imposed fines of from $50 to'$75 on each of the five to serve as reminders, Moreover, Justice Zeller warned them that a second offense would mean much heavier punishment: “In future it is the intention of this Court to make examples of men who persist in violating this law. ‘There is not going to be another Asch Building disaster if this Court can help it. Conviction of any manufacturer for a secon offence will in future mean imprisonment.” ‘The most paltry excuse that offenders against fire laws can offer in “inadvertence.” A door “inadvertently” blocked or left locked for a gingle “our during working time is a grave and criminal risk. We must find some way to prevent that fact slipping from the minds of easy-going employers. Plenty of publicity should be given to these Jatest fines and more still to that plain word—prison.
