MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS. IS THE, RECORDER RESPONSIBLE? THE Pittsburg "Oazette" devotes considerable space and a great deal of sham' to the" recent wholesale' removals of milk inspectors and messengers, as well as a higher grade of officials, treating them as the personal acts of Recorder Brown as necessary to vindicate his dignity and essential to the success of the new city administration, and of course to the building up of a new city machine. The Gazette" finds Recorder Brown. In hts raid on milk inspectors and messengers to enlist ward McKinley Did Not Wish It.

The steam yacht Corsair was the first Recorder Brown -appears to have been penetrated by the public disgust of the sweeping removals in the minor grades of city officials and employes. He essays a defense, and it is that there must be personal loyalty to the new machine now in proces of construction, else the milk inspectors and messengers must go. "Ixjyalty" Is a new qualification under civil service rules-. There should be an ironclad oath enforced to secure' it. This is a chapter borrowed from Mr.

Flinn's rules. Loyalty in examining milk and arrying messages or sweeping out the city hall!

The pace was terrific, and It was impossible to determine when hal the blance between George Washington and Recorder Brown, we hardly think the Father of His Country would have confessed to anything of this kind that he was a mere jumping jack la office to execute the plans of outside bosses. The excuses and apologies of the machine organ are not accepted by the people.

They fully understand the little game that is now going on. for there Is no reticence in disclosing its purpose. The wholesale removals in th minor city offices, at war with every principle of civil ser vice reform, are for no other purpose than to create a mu nicipal machine patterned after that of Mr. Flinn, and to Intimidate city councils. It is to control the Republican party of the city and county, to consolidate political power and declare political dividend.

They lifted the first turn as though the stake boat itself was coming to meet them. Shamrock still holding her big lead. Shamrock, gybing, stretched cut for the reach to the second mark.

Columbia followed her around 1 minute 23 seconds later. Both swept away on the starboard tack. Shamrock leading by about a Quarter to a third of a mile. Gain cf 22 Seconds. The official time of the turnlrur tha first mark was: Shamrock 11:51:06.

Columbia 11:62:17. This showed that Columbia's gain was 22 seconds in the 18 miles of close reaching of the first leg. The second leg of the race was nothing in exciting interest- The wind held strong and true, and after r- itg the mark the racers maintained their terrific speed, making no change ln their sails. The excursion fleet had a fight to keep up with the race, being compelled to crowd on a full head of stead to maintain a position which would keep the flying yachts in view As In the first leg, it was mere a-uesa work at first whether either boat tad gained or lost. When about half of the second leg had been covered It seemed, however, as if the American boat Ssao managed to slightly crawl up on her fast sailing otjoonent.

any rate she was safe within er time allowance and as they neared the second mar It was evident that if the was not gaining she was easily holding her own. Still scudding In the strong wind, the big white racers fetched the second mark. Shamrock rounding it first and with flattening sheets she held toward the Jersey shore en the starboard tack for pbout an eighth of a mile. Columbia however, luffed around the mark and stood off on the port tack. As soon Columbia had rounded Shamrock also went on the port tack and in this position the yachts stood nearly due north for more" than 20 minutes.

It was the first windward work. of the race and the result of the contest depended on the respective merits of the two boats In the thrash to windward at the end of which was the fthis Tine.

The condition. of wind and water, in short, were ideal and promised a rare day's race between the two big yachts. Sir Thomas Lipton was out early and rubbed hts hands with glee when he came on deck of the Erin.

"Thl is what we want." he said. If it holds we will have a good race. The Shamrock should do well to-day. True. fr Morran savs the Columbia wants sui.txiited to be Shamrock weather.

But as the Denjocrats have well on to a hundred thousand "majority in the metropolis, it is easy to sec that they will prefer that the new mayor should be of their party. He is no more likely to be controlled by Croker than Low is by Piatt. Either of them will make a first-clas3 mayor, but the chances of election are largely on the side of Shepard. One great point Is that a great part of the people hold that the government of the city should be antagonistic to that in power at Albany. Both in the hands of one party, there would oe dangers.

This question will be apt to recur to many Americans.

epeotaiiy if they have friends and relatives among the slaughtered troops or in th regiments CK.etipylng the island. Can anyone point to advantage that has come to us an a pp or a nation by our Philippine adventure? The bravery of our soldiers, or the skill of our off i ers. or the vast resources of our country needed no demonstration. All that there is in the Philippine for the United Stat d-- not balance this loss of life- And It means worn, if are to accept the renewal of the war as a ign, raut prosecute the conflict until conquest and subjugation b-comes complete. Ther has been foolish laik that tho Filipinos were spurred to this last outbreak by the assassination of President McKinley.

is it not more likely, if they looked abroad, it was in the fturdy resistance of the Boers of South Africa, who are fighting againt subjugation and the lo3 of nationality, that tber found encouragement? It is true the Filipinos are not of as high a typ of manhood as the gallant Boers, but for throe hundred years they have fought the Spaniard for liberty and in-dependencf, and were on the point of crowning succesn when the United States stepped In and took the plaf of Spain. We take no pride in what we have accomplished in the Philippines the skirmishes we have won. the towns and plantations we have devastated, and least of all in the peculiar way in which we managed to get possession of theirleader and general. There ha.n b--n no glory or honor for the "old flag" in all these so-called victories. We are not boasting of them, but on the contrary rather dislike talking of them.

How much grander appears our action in Cuba, where we went not to destroy, but to build up and maintain a nationality and instruct its people in the principles of representative government and home rule. There we have something to be proud of. The lives lost In battie were sacrificed in the cause of civilization and humanity. In the Philippines tho housands of lives lost and the hundreds of millions of money wasted seem to have gone merely to compel us to abandon the principles of American liberty and government, and accept the teachings of despotism and tyranny. Tho common talk is that we must go on.

Why must go on in a bad cause? It would be a blessing to the United" States, a great boon to the Filipinos and a telling lesson to the liberalism of the world were we to offer, tho Filipinos this week or next the same terms we offered to Cuba when our flag was unfurled on its coast and on the hills above Santiago. STRIKES AND PERSONAL LIBERTY. 'T'HIS is a question that comes to the front in every great strike. It is an important one. for It lies at the basis of the citizen's rights, guaranteed by the constitution and the laws.

In the "North American Review" for October Archbishop Ireland has an article on the subject, and it can be studied with profit, for the archbishop is known to be a friend of labor. His article in the main is a calm and forceful protest against the frequent practice of union strikers in Intimidating non-union men who wish to take their vacated places.

The ttiw out of the racer from their anchorage to the starting line was devoid of interest There was p.o heavy swell to caure skippers anxiety about their bobstav.

Thus it was that Shamrock set (he largest of club top suds and nothing daunted. Columbia followed suit. When the preparatory gun was fired It was clearly evident that Columbia cared little for the start which was made to leeward on a close reach, the triangular cture offering no benefit whatever to the craft r.rt away. There was no true btittl for position.

Columbia, which had been hugging the easterly end of the line eased off fheets and stood for the mark Signals were liolted from the Committee boat that the course would be triangular which meant that there would be two close reaches and one dead beat to windward for home.

When the tugs l.uckenbach and Navigator, two of the committee boats, passed the Hook at the wind was still holding fresh and steady, the official gauge at Sandy Hook giving the velocity as 24 knots an hour. Should it hold there was every prospect that the race would be sailed In less than 3hi hours. The racers were well out to the light ship before the vanguard of the great excursion fleet started down through the Narrows, closely followed by a picturesque swarm of white yachts and miscellaneous craft.

We all know that, and arc ready to fight for it, once it is assailed in our own person. No private individual has a right to interfere with the personal liberty of another, and no organization of private individuals has or can have such a right. To grant the privilege assumed by strikers would be to open the floodgates of violence and anarchy.

This fact is recognized in the most liberal labor laws of England and America, and the fact that labor leaders and even State or city authorities have tolerated acts of violence and intimidation on the part of strikers in recent years is regarded by Archbishop Ireland as a grave menace to the fundamental liberties of every citizen. He holds that the entire authority of the state should be put Into operation, if necessary, to protect a single workman who wishes to take the place of a striker. When the issue is made, who can dispute this? In fact, it is being gradually accepted by organized labor, and in recent strikes there have been less violence and intimidation than formerly. There can be no valid objection against strikers reasoning and arguing with those who want to take their places; but it must not be accompanied by threats or intimidation. A man's right to work for whoever he pleases and for what wages he will is one of his inalienable rights.

if force can be admitted as an argument to keep him from working, it can also.be used a3 an argument to compel him to work. That would be the same boot on another leg, but it would create a revolution if attempted. It will thus be ntrock must allow casionally a heavy squall would strike one of tho racers, causing her to heel, but taking the mean of the puffs neither could Ve said to have been more favored. It soon became apparent that the race was to be sailed In very quick time. The gain of Columbia, which the turn of the first mark proved she had made, was almobt Imperceptible.

Toward the mark the wind freshened. Columbia with a lesser sail spread seemed to stand stlfTer than hvr rival, but there was little to choose between them. They smothered along toward the murk and when they rounded it Columbia had gained only 22 Feeonds. Th gybe on both craft was well done. t'nder the same sail as they sturted they both stood for tho second mark.

Shamrock Compelled to Luff. The wind piped stronger, and la the strongest of the puffs the Shamrock had to luff a little to ease her to the force of the breeze. Columbia, on the contrary was allowed to feel the lull power of every sauall. never being eased, and It was "this that helped her ahead. In spite of the larger sail spread of her antagonist she was never left behind, but kept up with the challenger.

It became apuarent at the time that Columbia had sailed over one-half of the second leg-, that she had saved her time and was, barring accidents, a winner. He skipper Instead of nursing her through the scualls let her feel the strength of them, while Shamrock's larger spread or sail, caused her to make imperative lufts or else carry awav something. In a reaching breeze closer and finer sailing perhaps was never seen. There were freuuent occasions when the collapse of a top mast seemed almost due. But everything hung on.

Three or four hundred machine; election officers of that city have been Indicted by the grand jury for complicity in election frauds. They constitute the criminal conspiracy by which 60,000 or illegal votes are polled in Philadelphia. It was expected that these men would be brought to trial this month and a considerabTe proportion of them go behind the bars or jump their bail and leave the State, as Salter and his crowd did a year or so ago. But District Attorney Rothermel wUl not bring up the cases as expected at the present term of. the criminal courts, on.

the, ground that the judges of court No. 5, who would be obliged to sit in he trial of the cases, and Mr Rothermel himself, who would be required to prosecute, as candidates for election, and he therefore insists that as politics are involved, and no hurt to Justice will arise' from delay, postponement is Justified. This seems like straining a point and permitting a strained sensitiveness to interfere with the eternal principles of right and justice. The prosecutions should have gone on. and all the more need if a couple of hundred of the machine repeaters were sent to jail before the November elections.

It would have been a warning to others, and less fraud would have been attempted at the coming election next month.
