The Balkan error was a bad one congratulated upon the dexterity and confidence with wh coeds to sort its ministers and settle on a new lead. T Its refusal to proceed against the Third Avenue Railroad Company for failing to repair broken rails, rough joints and @ther noisy and dangerous track defects—although the company’s @egiect is in defiance of a formal order of the commission—is a fair sample of what the people of this city have learned to expect from these gentlemen who draw $15,000 a year each for alleged services to the public. Needless noise from defective rails and brakes on surface and elevated lines is one of the worst strains put upon the nerves of New Yorkers by day and by night. The Evening World fought againat this growing evil until the Public Service Commission roused itself to fseue orders. But the orders were never tnforced and now the efforts of Commissioner Hayward are of no avail against his easy-going col- leagues, McCall, Wood and Williams, who have voted to let the Third Avenue Railroad Company take its time over its repairs. How does Chairman McCall square this attitude with the clause of the Public Service Commissions Law which directs that whenever @ common carrier or street railroad corporation subject to the com- mission’s supervision “is failing or omitting or about to fail or omit A FAIR SAMPLE.

There is no reason why dwellers in this city should be tormented by day and deprived of sleep at night merely because street railway companies can earn bigger dividends on flat wheels and loose tracks. Wor is there any reason why the ear-piercing shrieks of metal grinding Sgainst metal should bore into the brains of tired homegoers in the odbway because the Interborough grudges the price of lubricant to Grease ite curves. ~ But the Public Service Commission is not concerned with the Public’s nerves.

Arguments Against Suffrage By the Opposition Leaders Reason 11—WOMAN SUFFRAGE IS UN- DEMOCRATIC. By Annie Nathan Meyer. SKED to choose one argument against Woman Suffrage, I choose ite A undemocratic spirit. While supposed to stand for democracy, in reality it refuses to be bound by majorities, and seeks to win its way by any indirect method that will spare the actual count of votes. Some may admire the “game pluck” of the Suffragists in refusing to eocept the mandate of New Jersey. But I see only a highly {logical pro- ceeding. I a small minority endeavoring in every possible way, fair or unfair, democratic or undemocratic, to avoid obeying the clear voice of the | people. Some Anti-Suffragists frankly admit that they think our electorate al- ready overcrowded and too easy of access, Most Anti-Suffragists are op- posed to the initiative and referendum, and fear wildcat schemes and ex- treme individualism will replace representation. But the Suffragist is a democrat, and for the ills of democracy always prescribes more democracy, The Suffragiet believes in the divine right of each individual to express himself or herself upon each and every question before the professional law maker. Yet, strange to the Suffragist magnificently sweeps aside the majority when it comes to gaining her own ends, A majority of about fifty-one thousand votes in New Jersey has de- ‘elared against giving the vote to women. One hundred and fifty thousand |legal voters did not vote at all, This means that the issue was defeated by a majority of 200,000, It 1s notorious that those who want something always vote for it. The opposition {s not so easily stirred, The greatest difficulty encountered by the Anti-Suffragist is to bring out the vote, A heavy vote has always spelled defeat to Suffrage. President Wilson helped Anti-Suffragists in giving publicity to the issue. In Oregon the majority for Suffrage was 3,277 on a vote representing a little more than half the electorate. In California a scant majority oi 8,500 was on @ vote representing about one-third the electorate. In Illinots the voters never were given a chance to vote on the question. Suffragists would gain more respect if they played the game they advocate. be
