Why, with its ) immense travelling public, is it talking about 9 per cent. qmarantecs for operating companies, when high-grass towns are able to talk about seven tickets for a quarter? Why do things move more vly now than in the supposedly benighted days of the old Rapid Transit Commission? Now York is believed to have advantages that other towns do not, and that it did not have a few years ago: It has a Poblic Utilities act that has served as a model for other States, It has a Poblic Service Comminsion wh powers greater than thone of the old Rapid Transit and State Raflroad Commissions combined. It bas a Mayor who admita he is @ rapid transit expert. | It has a Fueton Board of Betimate with all the superior wisdom and virtne that the word “fasion” fs assumed to carry. | It has a Rapid Transit law which has been amended, recast | i“ and perfected until it is alleged to be the last word of constrictive eagacity. It has the object leason of two subways in succesaful operation, and the warning and Inatruction of a bankrupt surface system. | It has the right of municipal ownership and operation guaran- | teed by law. | It has © population increasing so fast that tho number of pay- ing fares mounts 70.000,000 every year.

AM the ugliest man in the three kingdoms. But if you give me @ quarter of an hour's start I will gain the love of any woman before the handsomest.” 24 Thus boasted the notorious John Wilkes, homeliest agd most fascinating man of his day. And he made good his boast, as many bet- ter looking rivals learned to their chagrin. Wilkes spent much time in jai) and much more time in avoiding jail, He filled in the intervals by posiva &s an “Idol of the people" and either making love or writing about love. He was the son of an English distiller, He went to Parliament in 1757, where he won notice as a violent orator. Then he found an even it ‘scope for expressing his opinions by publishing a newspaper called t! North Briton. Political attacks in this paper at once got him into hét water, and he was lodged in pfison. Soon after his release he printed “Essay on Woman" that brought down upon him the condemnation of all "Hesay on Man’? was one of the great poems of the day. And the England. | “Essay on Woman" was a rhymed effusion along tho «ame lines, yet so unbbs Pope's L CAN'T Take You To THE O} TweLve, Too Pri oo >) f Nevably eyn! and brutal fn Its attack womanhood tiv LUNCH HERE For My PURSE The “Essay | every chivalrous man felt outraged. strangely enough, t on Woman.” Poem seoms to have enhanced Wilkes's fame as a hea \ breaker Instead of making women detest him. | “usttest man” in England, but also (as the essay proved) the avowed Insulter | of tho other sex, he nevertheless grew more more popular w! women, Mle magnetism offect his ugilness. IHis charm of manner made people forgive the profane and vulgar language with which he always interlarded his spece’. 1+ Tv. nts branded the essay as “an impious Ibe arrest. He was also turned out of Parliament. When the police rougat to arregt him he could not be found. He had recently fought a duei (ostensibly over a political quarrel, but also, it was believed, about a woman), had been woundéd {and had gone to Paris until the affair should blow over, There he stayed for , eluding the vengeance of the Hritish law and winning more hearts, |. Earlier he had married, His wife seems to have been one of the few women | of Nis acquaintance to whom he had never tried to make love. She was Mary Mead, only daughter and heiress of a rich London grocer, She was ten years | older than Wilkes and of a solemn, dull nature which was at painful variance | with his own wild spirits, He did not want to marry her and he was fascinate ing enough to have found an equally rich wife nearer his own axe, but to please his father, who had strong {nfluence over him, he consented to the union, “It was @ sacrifice to Mammon, not to Venus," Wilkes wrote later about his marriage; “I stumbled at the very threshold of the Temple of Matrimony. To add to Wilkes's misery, the couple went to live with the wife's mother, here was s sertes of family rows, ending in a senaration and tn @ lawentt ch brought to light several decidedly unpleasant facts concerning the hums d's character. { Wilkes stayed onin Parts until he thought the authorities at home had fore gotten ‘lc miadeeds, ‘Then he came back to England and was again elected to Parliament. He was arrested on the former eharges. But the people at ianre had Not only the eZ Po TEO To TAKE You For Supper , | bar wed in which learned to adore him, They looked on him as a mart On his | way to prison the mob rescued him from the police, W! | moh escorted him to the House of Commons in order to gu arrest.

Wilkes, who was in prison during ¢his time, was hatied not only as a martyr but as the Champion of TAberty. He became the wiost popular mon in and. Public opinion at last secured hie freedom and niade him Lord Mayor of London, George IIT, spoke of him ee “the most monstrous well bred Lorl Mayor" he had ever met. The man was wholly unpriacipled. He had no love for the people and never rendered them any ‘mportant service. Yet the same charm that won him the hearts of women gained him also the devotion of the masses, A wave of this popularity crossed the seas, In » when a dand of pioneers from Conneetteut founded a Pennsyivania town, they named tt Wilkes-Barre tn honor of John Wilkes and his fellow member of Parliament, Isaac Barre. ° @ price of P | law, administrative authority, experience, monoy, the richest! transportation field in the world—what more does the municipality want in order that it may get rapid transit on terme not beyond the | teach of second-class cities elsewhere ? a NO MORE POTATO POEMS WANTED. OWPER sang the Sofa, Whittier the Pumpkin Pie and Bryant C the Planting of the Apple Tree. Having these precedents, ket The Evening World thought it reasonable to urge aome of its readers to write “The Man With the Baked Potato” as a com- panion poem to Edwin Markham’s “The Man With the Hoe” and \ ag a means of counteracting the injury the Staten Island poet had } done to agriculture. ‘The baked potato was chosen an the themo be- cause there is a potato famine in the world, and this tuber may well symbolize the grievance of the consumer at the exces | farm products, ; Nobody has quite riten to the occasion. Nothing entirely equal | to Mr. Markham’s lines has been written, and ‘he Evening World hereby confesses defeat and declares the incident closed.
