MR. :30 | One Month: NO. 18,050, 4 M’ADOO'S AFOTHEGMS. R. M'ADOO says: “The city holds four aces in this | subway game and ought not to lay them down to anybody’s bobtail flush.” Axon The phrase is one of those “saber cuts of Y speech” that split a problem clear through by force of statement. Moreover, it is not inappro- priate to the subject. Considering the sort of game the Interborough i has put up to the people, how can comment upon it be better expressed than in the language of bluff? | Unfortunately the good old game is not always ed straight. Mhere are several crooked varieties. Among the variations are Puget, Sound poker, where dences aro counted higher than aces, and the | ‘” Posey County game in Indiana where the hands are laid down to ehow who wins the game, and then everybody grabs to see who gets the) ; stakes. These variations give the game the defect of an absolute uncer- a tainty as to the value of four aces, and in that respect are very much 4 Ike the subway game. Mr. McAdoo’s simile is, therefore, not wholly assuring. There is more wisdom in his other sayings: “In regulating sg monopoly the best regulative weapon is the right to onset the opera- tor ;” and, “If all transit companies look alike and are alike, and are bad in their likeness, it is high time to create a new and right type.” —— THE UNEASINESS IN DANVILLE. HE report from Mlinois that the Grand Jury of | Vermilion County, the home of Speaker Cannon, has begun an investigation of bribery in elections | and expects to disfranchise 3,500 men, put a broad | grin upon the entire country. It is safe to say that nearly everybody outside of Illinois smiled as as he read it, ' The element of humor in the report is due wholly to the pler- sonality of the Speaker. Despite his age, his high career, his official | position and his unquestionable personal dignity and force, there is | mixed up in his character a variety of humorous and almost comic freaks. ‘These are as salient as any other features of his personality, and to/éven the gravest of Americans the idea of Joe Cannon under | ion for tampering with @ Danville patriot will seem like the’plot for a comedy. Meantime there will be also a general confidence in the Speaker’s If there has been bribery in Danville, Uncle Joe didn’t heer a do it, i ———++--_—_ " WHY CHANGE THE CONSTITUTION? ENATOR BORAH, in urging an amendment to the Constitution providing for direct election of United States Senators by the people, was able to make an effective argument out of the situation in almost erery State where a Senator was to be elected. In some cases reactionary Senators like Lodge have been chosen against the will of the people, while in others Legislatures ‘are deadlocked and public business neglected. In the face of these facts, however, there are millions of con- servative citizens who would dislike to see the proposed change in our Constitution that is now old enough to be called venerable. Bad az conditions are to-day, they are being steadily improved by the force of public sentiment. We have found a way to make the voice of the people decisive in the choice of a President without abolishing the ; Electoral College. A similar remedy may be found for all defects ‘ in the system of electing Senators. Why change the Constitution? . penne eel % WOMEN AND HIGH ART.
