Ay Has not Thomas F, Ryan exceeded the bounds of power which it © Ws safe for a republic to allow one man to possess? i In the consideration of the answer to this question Mr, Ryan's per- tonality should have no part. Whether as a man he {s moral or vicious, wise or foolish, thrifty or improvident, miserly or generous—what he Is}. personally has no more to do with the principle involved than the color of his eyes or the size of his bald spot. Neither are Mr, Ryan’s wishes nor his purposes arguments to be con- sidered, The sole point of view is the good of the republic, which.in the ‘United States should be the supreme law. A sultan may be kind to his subjects; emperors have often governed well; kings have looked after the material prosperity of the people whose taxes supported them. If this question were whether or not a republic i fs the best form of government for the material prosperity of the peo- » ple many arguments, both from theory and from history, could be i brought forward to prove that monarchies are often more beneficial than tepublics, and that a one-man power has its advantages over government by the multitude, Every argument in favor of changing the form of government of the United States from a republic to an oligarchy or an empire {s a reason why Mr. Ryan should have all the powers he now possesses and should receive more, But are the people willing that Mr. Ryan should be their govern-| ti ment? He is at present, He is the legislature and the State departments, } Tammany Hall and the board of aldermen. His wishes govern and his will is the law. And so it will continue as long as the people continue Mr. Ryan's dummies and servants as public officials and political leaders. Mr. Ryan now controls the public utllities of Greater New York with only one exception, By his purchase of the Equitable stock he is able to use the savings of the people to levy tribute upon them. His daily tolls have extended from the collections of his corporations from the living] ‘ to the control over the inheritances of the dead. ‘ This concentration of power will have to be abolished or it wil! grow greater, It will not stand still. It is for the people to decide by their votes whether they prefer self government in reality dr only. in Ns an) LET MURPHY HIMSELF PAY. Long Pat McCarren should have been content with the olive branch which Mayor McClellan had Charles F, Murphy extend, Besides his $1,500 salary as State Senator, McCarren has his Standard Oil, Sugar] ¢ Trust and race-track tidbits to keep him from want. Be The people of New York should not have to pay a bonus to make] ¢ harmony effective, To pay McCarren and his pals $500,000 for the Montauk Theatre is to give them $200,000 more than it is worth, The Board of Estimate is doing this. Mayor McClellan presides over the board, Lolo eia la aia also o ® should pay it out of his Consolidated Gas profits to which he testified. He should not ask Mayor McClellan to give another public proof of his voluntary servitude and the people of New York to foot the Mill, CONSUMPTION TREATMENT, New treatments of consumption are a return to first hygienic prin- ciples, A constant supply of fresh air and a diet in which a large amount | 1 of fat is assimilated are proving by their results to be an effective and \ i they can, and the hospitals will not receive them until their cases are so : far advanced that cure is difficult. : By substituting fats for starchy food and increasing the use of cheese, | 5 bacilli of tuberculosis are successfully combated. Disease germs are everywhere, but they cannot find a breeding place in a healthy, vigorous » body. Observance of simple hygienic principles will prevent almost every | disease, and even postpone the bacilli of old age. PICKPOCKETS, Organized gangs of pickpockets are at work wherever crowds gather. On the “L” trains, in the Subway and on the surface cars the passengers are more and more subject to what would be called spoliation if it took place in Wall street. Every time the discipline of the police force becomes demoralized for any reason criminals throughout the country come to New York to take advantage of police inetliciency. Added to the influx of out-of-town crimi- nals are the graduates of the east side Fagin schools where pocket-pick- ing is taught as an art, Cases in the Children’s Court have ungovered several of these schools where small boys are taught to work in gangs in shopping crowds. / Every milk-dealer should join the association for the improvement | of the nik supply of New York which Dr. Ernest J. Lederle is organizing, | The object of the association is to secure the purity of the 1,375,000 quarts | of milk which are sold daily in New York, , One red rose a year has paid the rent for 123 years of a church prop- ss erly in Pennsyly There many New York tenants who would be glad to substitute a sentimental floral tribute for the monthly casi . | New York is not so citified after all when a man can .aye his leg] ‘ broken by a buffalo knocking him down and stepping on him, One rain brings more water than many showers, The People’s Corner.

She Finds Difficulty in Prying Herself Loose from Allthe Comforts of Home, as Exemplified by a Theatrical Boarding-House. By Alice Rohe. ES, I'm going to move," sald the Girl from Kansas, "That is, Just as soon as we can escape, We've been having terrible times, but no one dares face the awful fury of our motherly landlady, “Do you know, we had all our valuables stolen last night, and would you believe it, that gentle landlady went into o rage of indignation because we mentioned it. You know, she has the Brooklyn euchre club habit, and if she don’t win the prize she comes home {n—oh, such a humor! “Last night when we discovered we had been robbed we fled to her motherly bosom to tell our troubles, and the scene she created made us feel like criminals. She yelled at the top of her voice and raised such a disturb- ance because we dared mention that our things were gone that we crept silently to bed, and we never have found them. She threw a detective bodily out of the house this morning and said she simply wouldn't have her guests and servants insulted, “Say, we're the sixth act of new boarders who have been robbed. Do | you think there’s anything suspicious about that? Well, we had almost de- elded to move, anyway. Honest, you don't dare say your soul's your own without insulting that lovely person, with the ‘only-key-to-your-room’ habit. “The insulted landlady type ts something you don't find out in husky Kansas. You know, it's going to be an awitul trick to get away from our joyous theatrical boarding-house, where you never can get a bath and where “We Urept Silentiy to wed.” the guests on the first floor feel the uced of ablutions, And say, speaking of baths, you should have hearé the blondinod lady on the top floor froné | screaming at ‘Chawles’ the butler the other night about there not being any hot water, “'Chawles’ bawled back: ‘Dar ain't goin’ to be no hot water, Miss, Mistah Star, first floor front, done spoke for de bath this evening.’ All the time the landlady was smiling in anguish at some new candidates in the parlor, telling them about the comforts of home at elghteen per—and trying to drown out the conversation in the hall. “But we're going to leave, if we die in the attempt. The way we've planned is to say we're going away on a visit. Do you think that will work? The young woman in the hall room kept taking her things out plece by piece; then she telephoned for her trunks. If you dare hint at leaving, the landlady begins to tell you how she's put herself out for you, till you think she’s doing you a favor to accept your paltry remuneration. Is there any law compelling you to live with an insulted landlady when you don’t want to? I'm getting tired of feeling like a guilty sneak in my own room, “It's interesting to live In a house with real actors, though—only \it's terribly noisy at night. So I don't think any of them are working except the lady in the stock company. The blondined person says she's had lots of offers, but none of them will give her her price, so she won't consider them. My, but she's independent; just like the three other ladies on the top floor, They go out every morning at 1! and come in at night fagged out and then talk about the decadence of the stage. Miss Montague says she Teally doesn't know what the drama {is coming to. The managers are so sordid and commercial they can't appreciate talent or art. “Oh, yes, she's had plenty of offers, she says, but she won't demean her= self by signing with aay company that {sn't ll for art, and then she objects to going on the road, I wonder why she glared at me when I asked her tf she wasn’t the jolly widow in the ‘Busy Bowery Belles’ that Played in ‘Wamego, Kan., last spring, “Say, I just can't be popular, in that boarding-house.” — yo By Martin Green, 66 | SEE," said the Cigar Store Man, “that Mr. Henry James has emitted € severe criticism of the untidy and slovenly English of the people of the United States.” “Where does he come in?” asked the Man Higher Up, ‘What license has Hen got to throw the harpoon into the way we apparel our ex- pressed thoughts. He was born in this country, but he prefers to live in England, where they take their English laundered and wear frock coats over dickies and red flannel shirts. “Henry James {8 a master of English, but he has it overtrained. He must be a good writer according to the English standard, because nobody knows what he {!s writing about. To read a sentence of Henry James {s like a ridb on a Belt line car. “We have an English of our own, a get-there, rtratght-into-the-pocket @nglish that Hen accustomed as he {s to making five-cushion caroms with his expressions isn’t wise to. The difference between Hen and us is that he tries to use all the 260,000 words in the English language, and we take our pick. When we need a word we invent it and fore time it is known 48 slang. Then it secures lodgings in the dictionaries and be comes standard, “Bver read any of Hen's stuff? It will make you think, If you read {t often enough it will make you think you are dippy. Here would be Hen describing how Mabel Smithers, poor, but proud, repulses the offer of marriage of the millionaire Lord Cadge: “Her retrospective penetration evolved inasmuch as to the forthcoming —and how there is a sharp consciousness the answer to the question might well Iive—with intermission, of course, to fill in the gaps, ander the cir- cumstances, unnecessarily !n touch with the interstellar, transmusions of the infinite, dark, intangible,’ ” ‘How would you say it?” queried the Cigar Store Man, when he had taken the count, “{ would say,” replied The Man Higher Up, “that Mabel listened to-his Lordship’s wot alr until her temperature ran up to 106, and then told him to beat it while his shoes were good,” i ee Little Willle’s Guide to New York, The Isles of Safety.
