Mayor Gaynor's career was that of a farmer boy who rose by sheer force nnrl nmlitHnfl ti nil ont'l.iltln rmclf-1.ii. I at the bur, on the bench and in poli tics. His success as an executive was marked In the comparatively short time he ruled New York' before James J. Gallagher threw the nation into ex citement by . shooting the Gotham mayor on the deck of the German liner. Mayor Gaynor started his political career early on the basis of the old fashioned town meeting, and on the efficiency of that factor in the system of popular government he based his confidepce all through his career, right up to his. election as. mayor of New Vork, during bis campaign for which; be repeatedly said to his audiences tt Brooklyn: . "Why should I answer the lies they tell nbout me tell about me to yon,, my neighbors, who know tue-V First Purifies FlittmsK lie found himself as a youoyr man, a countryman from up, states hi the old towu of Flatbush, where corruption ruled and forty satoous did business with only, one license. He went to his neighbors and so fnr "worked upou their feelings- for righteousness' sake- generation before Mr. Itoosevelt had. made the phrase from the Bible popu lar with voters that they supported: him in a successful effort to down the old Klntbush political ring aud force the saloons all to. take out licenses. . He moved to Brooklyn and found there the oM Hugh 'McLaughlin nia- hlne mulcting the city by the ancient and present method of .selling to the municipality private property at an exorbitant price $1,200,000 for a wa ter supply plant which the ring mem bers had purchased for $1S3.0G0 and appealing to the people, his neighbors, against n ring which had) been regard ed as all powerful he beat the ring through the popilutr suffrage. He found John X. McKaue dolnc at Coney Island what he had Been done In Flntbus, and lm Brooklyn, and, de nouncing him in appeals to the public, he bent hlw; at the polls and sent him and sixteen of his followers to Jalll At the time- of the Colurabiau cele bration he found more bands charged for than could be got together taTSew York and Brooklyn. He published' the knowledge of the graft and challenged he bills that were presented"., but tho ring, etill powerful, got a kllt.througli the legislature authorizing the payment, ot tho exorbitant claim. . Gaynor went to the governor and got the bill vetoed. Serves on Bench. He declined otllce on several! occa sions after some of these successes, hut ran for Justice of the supfieme court after the McLaughlin, uiacbin had been started on the ran, and hfa triumphant election with the- Brooklyn city ticket led to the final overthrow of that machine. While on the bench he-continued his political activities both as citizen aud magistrate, not hesitating to appeal to. the popular attention even against th practices of his fellow Justices, ail- though not attacking them personally- He set forth that it was on the groujad of popular rights that he luterveued to protect George Duffy from the police In the Imbroglio whin h resulted In Mayor McClelland dismissal of Police Commissioner Kiugbatu. and within a few months be was nominated for mayor of New York. Upon reslgulns as supreme court lus- tlce to qualify himself to run be Bald: "J hod thought to pass my life In my present exalted office, but man pro poses aud God disposes, and I am con tent. I must now resign In order to be eligible under the constitution to re celve votes for mayor. 1 hope 1 shall never regret It. for I am acting solely froni a sense of duty." , Appeals to People. ' Since his election as mayor, address ing the larger community either di rectly or through letters- to subordi nate or by hU owu physical arts, k has appealed to the people at large ex actly as he had done earlier, albeit he Could scarcely command the- direct medium of his old fashioned town meeting. "Nagging at tne does no good; come and help me. My job la not easy." he said once, and It was quoted abroad. And again, addressing 800 lawyers and Judges at the Waldorf-Astoria, he aald morning he-told to the public through tlie newspapers his 'observations of what he. considered wrong In the ad ministrations of the police department and the court as they bad come before him. and he took hieusures as the chief magistrate of the city to reform both the procedure In the court aud the con duct and practices of the police, whose head he has made himself actually since ho entered upon the-tin ties of the mayoralty. . . . , - . Persistence In this method and in acts of this sort' gave him a hold on the community's attention which was never relaxed and it made him also a figure of natiouaa interest and one who was watched even abroad. To Mayor Gaynor's crusades against police abuses was due the present en forcement In New York of the rule that arrested prisoners are not pic tured in the rogues' gallry until after they have been properly convicted. - In his campaign for the mayoralty Mayor Gayuor based his plea for votes on his pledge to give the city a busi nesslike administration., enforcing all the laws evenly and alike and making the police proper servants of the peo ple and' not self assuming masters. After his election he kept his list of Intended commissioners very closely to himself until It was almost time fot them to be sworn in.
