IX HIS ptrs-onal adprtlcinpnt In
another lolnniu Air. Sturges iiiin
jilnlns Hint the Republican papers
attack Colonel Hitchcock In their
editorial columns nnd then deny him a
chance of defense except lit uihertlsing
inte. Kor The Trllmne we will sa
Hint, thoiigli abundant iluitue olfeied,
no uttiiek has been made upon Colonel
Hitchcock save in the line of legitimate
puhllc aicttnieiil. and no tleleiise was
denied because none was submitted.
Tlie one communication In his inteiesl
eniiti United n u letter to the edltoi
Hint by Colotul Hole' was pi luted
i oti.-pieuously without charge: and In
our :iileiUliiK columns, on Colonel
Hitchcock's own piopo.ltion. and In
Older to give Colom l Hitchcock's sup
pen teis Hie widest possible latitude, we
admitted yesleiday an attack upon
.Itlelge Cmpenttr which, if we had
ttHhed lo .slllle public discussion, could
veiy piopeily hae been dec lined, sin. e
il was a tNitic ot falsehoods and ms
Ifpiesenlatioti. That attack cited .eiliilii cases a
with It .ludge Caipenlet's judicial con
duit lulled to please Air Sluigc-s mid
the Municipal league. The lull fact.--,
which were carefully kept out of the
iidvc-i iistment, weie as loliows:
Henry Waltheis', of West .uauton,
was aiialgiie.l betore dudge c.n penter
lot stlliug licptoi' without a license. Tito
i asp was fall ly tiled and no complaint
Is made of the tidings ol Hie tiial judge
or Ills c-hmge to the Jm. Hut Hie Jm
saw lit to aiiiuit the .iceu-'il, and Juttsfo
Carpenter, altei leiehing the M-rdii t
failed to icnsuie the jmy loi not coti
vlcting Waltheis. as Hu- olllieis and
attorney lor the league lelt lie ought
10 ha . done
.lodges occasionally do leiisuie juries
for M'idiets letutned. but it is a dan
geiotis c-ustiiin and a iudg'' goes be
yond his lights when he takes that
step. A jury i- selected by the attor
neys fur .the iiinnuonweaUli and de
leiiso and its nienibeis aie sworn to
well and tuily try and title deliveiatue
make. Jt is theii piuvlncc to pass upon
tlie fails and lenoit their liniling to
Hie limit which is hound b their
juilgnietit Ciio-s w mugs inl(,ht easily
b" peipetr.ited In the name of jus
tice il il was lUstoiuaiy lor a tiial
judge to bully and scold eveiy time a
jmy dlil'eied l'loni him in its linilings.
It is to the CI edit of .Illdse Carpenter
that bis exalted ideas of the judicial y
would nut permit him to do that which
is not prcipitly in the line ol his duty.
The .statement that tlie costs weie
altei wards leinltted by Judge Kd
wauls is wholly untitle It was Judge
C'upontei to whom the application
was made and b whom the cn-ts,
which the jury placed on the league's
piosecutor, weie stilcken oil'.
Stephen Ciowley pttuhased a saloon
at Olyphunt in which v.'as a nickel-In-Hie-slot
gambling niaeliine. Ciowley
did not want the machine, which was
out ol older, mid did not buy it. It le
nialned the ptopeity of the loi mot
owner of tlie place, but Crowley agteed
tint it mult! be left on the pietnises
for a leasonable peilod lo ge the
owner an opportunity to dispose- of It
The machine was in a moot In the tear
of the bin loom and hail a caul on It
.suiting- that it was out of older, to
warn people not to put any money in
It, Professor Cuiniulngs, of Oly pliant,
who drew up tbc bill of sale between
the parties, testlilod that the machine
was not Included In the elfeets that
Ciowley bought and lie also lestllled
that lie knew it was out of order all
of the time It was In the saloon after
the pur.'hase by Ciowley.
Tlio attorney!, for tile league asked
Judge Cm pouter to say to tlie Jury
that the fail that the machine was In
Ciow ley's place made out it case of
maintaining u gambling delce, I'mter
the facts hi the case Judge I'm penter
had to refuse to do so To cliuige as
the league attorneys ioiiio.tcd would
have been outiugc'iius, for Hi., weight
of tlio evidence was to the etl'oi t that
Ciowley did not cumi the macliiiio and
that lie had never had a cent of piullt
1 1 oin II, The vei diet was pot guilty
and the cots weie plated on the
league's pioseculliiK agent.
Ill another case It is charged that
J mine Carpenter Issued a lleen.'e Irre
gulaily. No chuigo Is made that the
license was not as propel a one lo bo
gi anted as any olhei. The only accusa
tion is based on an alleged smnll tech
nicality, the tallure n i.tuso public ad
vertisement of the llcetite application,
Tills Is pi enounced a violation of law
and ot court ntle.-, hut theiu Is not a
woid In the law or the itiles uiiiltlni;
advertisement of a license gituiled
for an unesplreil fraction of a your, as
tills one was. Hither the league peo
ple don't know what they mo talking
about or they have sloopcd In this mut
ter to what, If done by mdlnaiy per
Kins, would bo lint d to cllhtiiii'.nlsh
fioni dow might mUsttuoimnt.
In blaming Judge Caponier for two
of tlui -Municipal league's tulluics to
convict, Mr, Stuiges shoves upon tho
bench tesponslbillty which he knows
icsteil solely on the Jury, tho supremo
judge of tacts. llccausu tlie judge
would not usurp a tunc Hon not his by
law; because, In other words, lie would
not break the law lie. was sworu to
uphold, Htiirges holds him up tn public
i.i'orn nnd aigiles In effect for, multilist
the hem h IJciuoi'iatle, 'I'lie same splilt
which bribed it lirtirilloss boy to pin
I'tire by false lepresenliiHon a violation
of the llcittor law would have Hie Judges
nveiiurn the Jnrv system nml erei t uu
Its ruins mi Ii 11 Stingos kind of judi

all things ale evidently Jitstllluble.

Concerning1 the Weather.
AT Tim TIMH this was put
Into tvpi Hie probabilities
pointed to less favorablu
wealher l'oi election day
than we lane had tor the past lew
weeks. Hy the lime these woids reach
the subsci liters' eyes, the weather
i bailees will be. known ddlnltely. Just
a word apropos.
Rain and stoini on election day aie
commonly believed to be Uenioctatlc
weather. libseVvallon extended over
liiituv c iinpalgns tends tu tonllrui that
on blustery days It Is easier for Hie
Democracy to get Its vote out titan for
Republicanism. That Is because Demo
crats are usually out of power and
olllie, and therelote very hungry and
veiy cagei to get In again, wlieieas
Republicans', being In, me pione to
ovci-LonilUoiico or downright laziness.
This should not be, and today Is n
good time lor Republicans to make a
pieeeiient that will foieer dispel thi.e
belief. They owe It to their own inter
ests us citlexns, to their political nclgh
hiu s ami associates, and to tlio gov
ernment, to go to the polls eatly today
and not only vote right but also to use
their best Inlluence In Induce otheis to
vote lor Hie splendid Republican ticket.
The WilUi's-ljiirio Ret m d's season of
"hloulnc; hot and cold" will probably
end today.
Tammany's Danger.
THH ClIAUCi: which has
been most vigotously piessptl
against Tammany Hall in
Hie piosPUt campaign in
Xew Voik city is that Tammany i ule
means the stimulation ol vice to swell
Tammany's pocket. It has been shown
very plainly that Hie girt eminent of
(lolhnin as now conducted is in league
with gambling and piostituHon, that it
fosteis these evils for what it can make
out ot llioni and thai eHedhe steps
low, ml social impiovdiient leqtihc the
dissolution of this illicit union.
Rut it is doubtful If the iuoi.it side of
Hie case againl Tammany makes half
as powctliil an appeal to tlio aeiage
Xew Voik voter as tlie llnancial side.
The .neiage Xew Yorker is not an es
pecially pious oi nioi al being;: vice does
not shock him, lor It N one ol his chief
indusliies'. The piobabllities ate that
a nut lenity of Hie voting1 residents of
the boiougli of Alanhattan detlve in
whole or pan their livelihood fioin
laloimg to vicious impulses. Hence
tluy ate not easily -t irnct by exhoi
tatioiis to lrtue. They' do. howevet,
siiongly object to being lobbed; and If
Tammany goes dow i next Tuesday it
will li piimaiily because under Tain
many ink tho Mitels have .not been
getting even a lair apptoacli to their
money 's w orlli.
Ai entiling1 to Aitliur fiooilrlch.wi itlng
in the em cut Woild's AVoik, the gio-s
outlay ol Ountct Xew Voik in lSHtt was
XlMJ,;'."i.:,'Ji." while that of Chicago, Phila
delphia, Rislon, r.altiinoie, St. Louis,
San Pianelsco. llulialo, Pittsburg, Cin
cinnati, Cleveland. Detloit, X'ew Oi
lpans and Milwaukee combined was
only $l7ti,71.",Mi-'. The ical estate lax per
sriu.ue mile in Xew Voik was f.'Sii.HS;
of these rntublned cities it was only
.f:0,T2.'. Kor pavements. Xew Yoi k paid
'4 times as much as those thlit'-en
i Hies. Xew- Yolk's either expenses haie
been In pioportion.
Fioni another .standpoint these coni
paiisons have been made: It costs mote
to i uu the single municipality of New
Yoik city, under the one-man system
of administration as piacticed by
Croker, than to conduct all the nine
Kieat ledeial executive departments nt
Washington, Hit owing in the Govern
ment Pi luting Home nnd the govern
ment of tho District of Columbia, in
cluding; Its police foice. Theie aie in
Clt eater Xew Voik I0,1U public em
ployes of all kinds, which ineluiies the
police fotie of T.OJi! persons, Last year
the enniinous sum of $:;,0J7,317 was
paid to Ihun, Xow, Including1 muio
than a.floo people in tlie Government
Pt luting House and mine than 3,000 in
the diet i let government. In all the ev
eeutlve depaitiueiits at Washington
tin in me le.-s than lin.OflO people em
ployed. The aggtegate disbuisenieiits in
nil I'edotal employes within the District
of Columbia, which Includes eveiy ox
ictttlve brunch ol the local government
ot Washington. -.., Its police, school-le.uheis-,
etc., fall consideiably below
$jo,OuO,onn per annum, less than half the
uggiegale paid by Xew York city.
