Our citizens have now an opportunity OF assuring
themselves OF the absolute impossibHtY Of having
the Clty well goycrneu unueT ille sway OF the usua
party influences and party tactics The Mayor has
nominated Justice RoBERr TAYLOR for Chief Of
the New Police, and the Board of Aldermen ha:
unanimously confirmed the selection. Every bedy,
apart from the htte cllques of Ward fuglemen and
office expectants, agrees in recognizing Mr.. Tay-
lor as eminenty qualified by ability experience and
integrity for the post. But he is not member of
the party aud the minor wre-workers too short
sighted to see how much more the party would gain
in public regard and confidence by snch an appoint
ment than it could make by any possible partisan
direction Of the office. The consequence is gen.
eral ferment in every Ward groggsry aad back
stairs concave, which ensures the nonconcurrence
of the Board of Assistants and the speedy backing
out Of the Mayor and Aldermen


We rejoice that all this has happened, or is 10
happen. The sooner the People are thoroughly
satisfied that Political Party cannot rule the City
with view 10 City interests aad needs the better.
It can require but few more experiments TO put this
beyond cayil
