As to Picketing.
T
11 B DECISION of Justice
Gaynor of the Brooklyn su
preme couit that picketing
by strikers is lesal calls for
careful consideration. For reasons
which vfp shall give we do not believe
that this opinion will stand.
To picket a place is to maintain u
cordon of strikers about it for the pur
pose of intercepting men who seek to
enter. The law is settled that men may
strike and that other men may work
in the strikers' places if they see flt.
It Is also settled that when some men
quit work and others are employed in
their stead the new men are as fully
entitled to protection as the old wete
and that neither they nor their employ
er nor their employer's propeity may
lawfully be molested. It would not for
an instant be tolerated as consistent
ttith orderly liberty that the employer
should have the riRht, under the law,
to put cordons of spies around the
homes of the men who have left his
employ, in order to prevent other men
from entering. That would immediate
ly Impress the most enthuiastic trade
unionist a a form of petty tyranny
and the law would promptly be appeal
ed to to put an end to it.
' Yet In practice picketing,' as upheld
by some trade unionists, means noth
inp: less than the doing to the employer
of what would not be tolerated if done
by him. In a time of public peaie it
means a specie of martial law in the
vicinity of a workshop fiom which thf
strlkeis have voluntarily absented
themselves, for the unconcealed pui
poM of iniluencing other worklngmen
not to enter. In this connection IL is
ticcessniy to distinguish between in
dividual pei suasion and picketing, it
is the right of strikeis to try by argu
ment and moral suasion to ptevent
other men fi om taking the places which
they have abandoned. Hut it has been
atilrmcd by the United Stales Hupiemu
court and it is consistent with common
sense and common fairness that argu
ment and moral suasion may not law
fully be reinforced by the rhow of num
bers for purposes of intimidation nor.
of com so, by tin eats or violence.
What Is picketing except the t-how
of numbers for purposes of Intimida
tion? What is it but u setting up of
a form of interference with the oper
ation of an industiy fiom which thue
employing it have separated them
sclves? If there can be legal picket
ing of a workshop why not of u store
or a home? "What is to prevent its con
version into an Irresponsible, and capric
ious means of venting any and every
kind of peisoual spite ur Jealout.y?
Car i led out to its logical conclusion, It
would lead to anarchy, since it would
override the regular police agencies mid
substitute the authority of an executive
committee for that of a regularly or
ganized government by the majority.
No class ol men In tin community
should have special legal privileges.
The law should be for all. If picketing
ids ! to b legalized, U may as well hit

called upon to do. The battle between

Mr. K. L. Fuller is evidently intro
ducing the big railway magnates who
are opposing his Western Maryland
project to some anxious moments and
new tricks In legitimate business stiat
egy. Judging by the outcry thej' aie
making. It is not the tlrst time and It
probably will not be the lust.
The Troublti of a Rtformtr.
WI. HAVE already noted
and commented upon the
fact that the reform ad
ministration of Mayor
Low in New York has pleased neither
the regulars, who believe In taking
their politics like many of them take
whiskey, straight, nor a good many of
the reformers, who seem to have anti
cipated, nnjnstantaneous revival of the
age of miracles. In a speech made the
other eyenlng before the Republican
editorial association of the state of New
York Mr. Low shed some Interesting
light upon why his administration has
not moved more rapidly toward the
correction of long-standing abuses. Ho
said:
"The problem we have been called
on to deal with is not easy, and as a
rule this is not very well understood.
There are two provisions contained In
the charter which have proved them
selves especially fruitful of embarrass
ment. The Mist of these Is the clause
Using all salaries as they were at the
incoming of, the administration until
changed by the concerted action of the
Board of Estimate and the Board of
Aldermen. No previous administration
was ever so hampered. It has always
been left to the heads of the depart
ments to fix tin1 salaiies as long as
they did not exceed their appropria
tions. 1 don't know but that much
might be said for the new system, but
it must be deemed unfortunate, to say
the least, that it was inaugurated at
a lime when the city payrolls had been
swelled to an unprecedented extent.
The other provision is quite as bad and
also as novel. It provides that when
ever an oillce is abolished the in
cumbent shall receive a preferred place
on the -waiting list and have the llrst
chance when a. new appointment is
made. The consequence is that after
a number of positions have been abol
ished, we ate now taking back for
other positions the men already cast
oil. Whatever is to be done, in other
words, has to be done with the as
sistance of men put in by the former
administration.
"It might be supposed that these em
ployes would prove loyal to any ad
ministration, but such is not the lule.
I'll give you nn illustration from the
street cleaning department. A deliber
ate attempt has beeu made to tie up
that department ever tlnce the new ad
ministration came in. Commissioner
Woodbury Is a man of resources and
the department has not been tied up,
but I will tell you about some of the
obstacles ho ha,? had to contend with.
The department possessed four steam
dumpers, which the Tammany admln
istiation lor some reason or another
laid up. Instead of being of use they
wcie only a source of expendituic be
cause two watchmen wete employed to
look after each one of them. Other
wise they weti! permitted to rust away.
Commissioner Woodbury found all of
them.out of repair. He decided, how--U'V,
to put one ot them 1n running
order, in order ti see of what use it
might be. Well, one day a load of
ashes wus dumped Into the funnel of
the boat. Another day the boiler was
burned oui. The captain declared that
he dared not go to sea with it, but he
went, of course, when the commission
er MltJ ho would find some other cap
tain who did dare. In one month live
deliberate efforts were made to prevent
that boat from being used. And yet,
with all those interruptions, that boat
has alrendy helped to reduce the cost
of dumping dirt fiom SO to 21 cent's a
cublo yard, .lust thluk of the htato ot
affairs when an udmlnlstiatlon has to
contend with such dltticultles! There
ih a way, of course, to gut rid of that
kind of men, but It takes time. There
arc already four employes of that par
ticular depattment In Jail, and we are
moving along."
The 'rudimentary elements of fairness
would suggest that those who helped to
Install Seth Iow and his colleagues In
otllcn should grant them a reasonable
time In which to work out their plans.
'c- are dlsliustful of their power ever
to bring .About In New York city n
much better giade of government than
Tammany gave, for the rcasouthat we
think Tammany gavo the kind of gov
ernment that the aveiage New Yorker
wants, except at Infrequent Intervals
of fxtrnoidlniiiy dissatisfaction. Hut

The Gentleman from Tennessee.
THE TiEADElt or tho Demo
crats In the lowi r house of
congress lit Mr. Itlcliiu'ilson,
of Tennessee. He Is a gentle
man personally attractive and distin
guished, but politically the period or his
leadership cannot be said to have boeii(
notable for successful results. To for
mer shorlcomliigs In that form of
sagacity which cliaiacterlcs great lead
ership H'looktf now ns It another weic
soon to be added.
ilfceiitly Mr. Hlchardson arose to a
question of privilege and solemnly In
formed the house that Information had
been received by him nllleglng u shock
ing condition of Immorality In connec
tion with the negotiation by Denmiiilc
of the sale to this country of the Dan
ish West Indies. He possessed, he said,
a certified copy of a secret report made
to this Danish government by nn alleged
agent in' which charges weie made ic
llecting on tho integrity of members of
congress nH well as upon other oillclals
and also upon the American newspaper
press. Upon his honor as a gentleman
Mr. nichnrdsou disclaimed any desire
to exploit this scandal for partisan ef
fect; but nothing would satisfy hltn ex
cept a thorough investigation.
Well, the Investigation Is being held,
and Its results are being heralded. I"p
to this time they do not cjall for much
comment. The alleged agent of Den
mark turns out to have been a garrul
ous nobtaly, whom the Danish ministry
disclaims utterly, who never had any
relations with the American department
of state, as ho claimed he had, and who,
on general principles, seems to have
been a better subject for a lunatic asy
lum than for a place in the confidence
or the Democratic leader on the Iloor of
the house. The alleged purchasablllty
of congressmen not only is not proved,
but is shown to have existed simply in
the imaginations of men of small calibre
who assemble for purposes of gossip in
the back rooms of saloons or on street
coiners men so completely without re
sponsibility that their word would not
be taken against that of a yellow dog.
There has not been brought forth In
this investigation, upon which Mr.
Uichnrdson so stiongiy insisted for non
partisan reasons, the slightest evidence
or intimation fiom a responsible .source
of the employment of Illicit means in
the negotiation of the Danish West
Indies sale. The tale told by Captain
Christmas shows up as a tale of nn
irresponsible evolved from tlie inner
consciousness of an imagination per
verted and unwell. Until Mr. Hlchard
son took hold of It and gave to It tho
endorsement of his "honor as a gentle
man" it had been bandied about In pri
vate with no reputable man deigning to
dignify it with serious notice. It re
mained for the house leader of the De
mocracy to lift it up befoVe the gaze of
the civilized world, some of whose in
habitants will selzV with avidity upon
this excellent opportunity to gloat over
the fancied corruption of the great re
public nud instruct their children that
this corruption is a; truth, because the
leader of a great party in congiess
staked his honor upon it.
Of com so Mr. Hlchardson never meant
that he endorsed the charges of this
man Christmas. What he meant was
that he pledged his honor upon the
authenticity of his information as to
what Christmas had said. But the woild
at large will look at the matter in a. less
accurate light. It will hear vaguely of
the Christmas churges, pay little atten
tion to their dlspioof and settle down to
the view that Mr, Hlchardson must
have had good ground for forcing an
investigation else he would not have
demanded it so Impressively. If the
Democratic party Is satisfied with such
leadership we suppose the lymaluder of
the American people will have to endure
It. Hut it strikes us that this Christ
mas Investigation cuts a pretty big hole
in what was left of the political pres
tige of Hon. James D. Hlchardson.
Dr. Theodore L. Flood would make a
first-class commissioner of pensions. He
would enlorco the law, but do It kindly.
Opposition would not worry nor weary
him. The president could not make a
better choice.
