MONED concerning certain statements of strate Corrigan, Mayor Gaynor replied: “Do , Magi 5 not persist in asking me about Corrigan. Ie is one % of those in this city whose heads are filled with vice and crime. How did they get their heads filled with vice and crime? You only have to follow them to find out.” around at nig When that statement was shown to the Magistrate he answered: “This matter of investigating vice and crime is too big a thing for one to indulge in personalities. I might reply to Mayor Gaynor, but I will not.” In this brief thrust and parry the victory reste with the Magis trate. The logic of the issue, the right of reason and the proprie- ties of discussion aro all on his side. The strategy of evading charges by attacking the character of him who makes them has no doubt worked well enough at times before a mass-meeting and even before uw jury; but it can avail nothing in a discussion where the appeal runs to a whole community and where the arguments are expressed in the impartiality of print. | Tf the Mayor is wise he will not repeat this style of defense. ee A MATTER OF TIPS. OMMISSIONER FOSDICK reports that In the course of an inquiry concerning the charge that building inspectors sometimes accept money from contractors and construction companies, the presi- dent of one of the companies said: “I give them an odd $5 just the same as giving a tip to @ bank clerk or anybody else. It is simply an ordinary thing to give a fellow $5 or something like that. It is & common thing anyway.” This is a new view of it. In days of old “graft” dignified itself by assuming to be a “commission,” a sort of recompense for high service, not a bribe for favors to which one is not entitled, and ly no means ‘a mere gratuity bestowed in acknowledgment of per- sonal attentions. Do we gain anything by having our officials accept tips instead of graft? Moreover, why are $5 tips given to bank clerks as “a common - thing ?” —_—_—_+4-____. FOUR FOR PEACE. EPORTS from Washington ere to the effect that arbitration treaties with France and with Japan are likely to follow almost immediately should success attend the negotiations now under way for such a treaty with Great Britain. Thus the peace movement is likely to be soon backed by four nations constituting very formidable powers on land and on sea, in every quarter of the globe. The probability and the promise of such a result are in them- eelves new and strong arguments for the treaty under considera- tion, If we have reason to believe that the taking of one step toward the maintenance of international peace will make it ensy to take two other steps in the same direction, it is evident we should By Roy L.
