NO, 18,998 VOLUME 44...... TAMMANY THRIFT. HE Tarwmany platform bears heavily on the need of economy in| T the city government. Don’t spond the city’s money “except for | abaolutely essential improvements.” | Just so, Why spend money on future development when living | men have pockets? Why encourage vast achemes of civic improve- ment when everybody knows money will buy canteloupes at two dol- Jare apiece, fish at eighty cents a pound, hothouse tomatoes, perfumed soap and other substantial luxuries which city employees like and which—as the Citizens’ Municipal Committee has shown—under | Tammany administration they get? If the city has any spare cash epend it on things men can enjoy right now. That's the way to make friends—friends of those who enjoy, friends of thore who supply. Friends are as good as money. Of course Tammany loves economy. When a ‘T'amimany orator ‘boosting a candidate lifte his voice and proélaims “He's an organize- tion Democrat,” don’t the committeemen jump shouting to their feet with eparkling eyes and visions of—economy? Don’t waste the city’s motiey. Think of the “boys.” John D. Rockefeller wept when he gave a Sunday schoo! talk to an audience of deaf ptople. The misfortunes of others have been among ‘the hardest this good man has had to bear. aS NO ESCAPING IT. 'E CAN well believe that even Mr. Sulzer’s best friends will not be over-zealous in urging the immediate indictment of Murphy for criminal conspiracy. Proofs of “gigantic con- piracy” and “fiendish plot” on the part of Tammany will not stave off the ordeal of a Court of Impeachment nor make it certain that the “sympathy of the people” will see William Sulzer triumphantly through all his troubles. There is a sense of honor in this State that cannot be satisfied with tHe proof that Murphy is & vindictive conspirator. \ The State will never regain its self-respect until it has secured heme Me Sulzer, in the face of the charges against him, an answer more specific than the already known character of his enemies. The people of New York once took Mr. Sulzer at his own valuation. It will need more than a slump in some one olse’s stock to bring his own to par. ee ‘We understand that the man who yawned himself into lockjaw was trying to discover from the records how the United States Senate has been spending the summer. ———————¢-—_____ , WOMAN IS SO INFERIOR. 1 ILAGRANT MENDACITY,” “hffterical exaggeration, ” “oute! Trageous misstatement,” “unreasonable, unnatural efforte,’! and similar expressions give the latest campaign documenti of the National Association Opposed to Woman Suffrage an exhila- | rating, true enough political ring. When the leaders of the recent suffragist convention proudly proclaimed to Congress that they represented four million women voters in their nine States a good many folks wondered if the Antis would let them get away with it. By taking down the census reports and showing that in these nine States there are at most only 2,500,000 women entitled under the franchise limitations to vote, | that only two-thirds of these are registered and that only 70 per | cent. of the registered go to the polls, the National Association of the Opposed mercilessly cuts down the boasted four imillion to a good deal less than two. “It seems,” conclude the Antis, “that the | temptation to deal with facta and figures in glittering generalities rather than with business-like precision is too strong for women who blunt their finor sensibilities in their attemnts to. enter the arena of politics.” | Exactly.
