They have defrauded the public of the benefits of a Police bill, an Election Reform bill, a Five-Cent Telephone Rate bill. They have refused funds to investigate rottenness in the conduct of the people’s business. They couldn’t even scrape together enough self-respect to pase an appropriation bill to pay the State’s regular "The Governor of New York has amazed and disappointed decent voters by dumping upon the State a sordid bunch of appointees who, from Packy McCabe up, are in the main a collection of bosses, sub- bosses and machine servers that must make Tammany snicker anew at thoughts of “reform.” What the public would like to know is whether the interest and honor of the State and of the people who live in it and pay its (axes ‘are mentioned at Albany.

It points out that it is now “represented” in various branches of the Government by ® Congressman who lives in Riverside Drive, a State Senator whose address is Sixty-eighth street, an Assemblyman whose home is in Brooklyn and an Alderman who hails from Harlem. : The University Settlement, the Educational Alliance and other organizations that work in the east side and are themselves an integral “part of the east side, believe that they should be consulted when pool- room and dance hall licenses are to be granted or deputy sheriffs are to be appointed in that district. The east side thinks it ought to know better than anybody else the qualifications and records of those who apply for licenses. Before it began to insist upon a better standard of appointments it got special deputy sheriffs who were little better Man cadets and gangsters. “The east side wants only its rights,” declares Secretary Gold- stein of the University Settlement. “But the trouble has been in the past that it has been given its rights as favore.” It is high time to lay aside the old notion that the east side in a, hopelessly poverty-stricken district to be pitied, patronized and man- aged for its own good.

Yet who will say that President Wileon has not bettered Dr. Eliot’s care- fully prepared inscriptions for the city Post-Office at Washington? Dr. Eliot's inscription for the east pavilion read: Carrier of news end knowledge, Instrument of trede and commerce, Promoter of mutual acquaintance Among men and nations and hence of peace and good will. Revised by President Wilson it becomes: Carrier of nawe and knowledge, Instrument of trade and commerce, Promoter of mutual acquaintance, Of peace and good will Among men and nations, Besides gaining in rhythm, the President’s version is final, there- fere more impressive. “Hence” suggests plea or argument. An in- seription should carry the effect of finality, not demonstration. Dr. Eliot wrote for the west pavilion: Carrier of love and eympathy, Messenger of friendship, Consoler of the lonely, Bond of the scattered family, Pnlarger of the public life. President Wileon revised it: Messenger of sympathy and love, Servant of parted friends, Consoler of the lonely, Bond of the acattered family, Enlarger of the common life. “Messenger” is better than “carrier” because “messenger” implies also the kindly impulse and act of a sender, Moreover it avoids the recurrence of “carrior,” which is the first word on tho cast pavilion, “Messenger of friendship” is general and abstract; “Servant of parted frionde” becomes at once touchingly direct and concrete, “Common” life is better than “public” life becanse “common” covers human fel- | lowship more broadly, more sympathetically, Not to mention nicoties + of sound, $ An interesting lesson in English by eminent experis-—which Proves, among other things, that even where the best of heads are |) employed, two are better than one, ————————EE Mew York Rivers Threaten Floods Up-State.—Headiine.
