Along with the Jeremiah O’Learys, John Devoys, Daniel F. Cohalans, Frank Buchanans and all the rest of the crawling tribe of treason-mutterers, peace-bleaters and plot-hatchers on whom loyal Americans, going about their great task, have had to tread, Hylan J F, HYLAN, Tammany candidate for Mayor of New York, the insignificant, Hylan the impossible, now goes completely under foot. To see added to the sordid record of its candidate the sinister teal and stamp of The Friends of Peace, the sign by which the Kaiser's secret friends in America are known, the brand of divided loyalty, must sicken Tammany itself. No wonder Hylan found a sponsor in Hearst, with whom he could exchange the mystic passwords of near-Kultur! It is hard to seo how even the candidacy of this man can survive four days more in the light of what is now known of him. For, overlooking all Hylan’s other conspicuous and cumulative Aisqualifications, what loyal American could cast a vote for this Hon- orary Vice Chairman of Pro-Germanism without feeling the gorge of his patriotism rise until it choked him?

WO of the bitterest fights on record in the New York Board T of Aldermen occurred in 1909 and 1911 over the Building Code revision backed by Charles F. Murphy, boss of Tammany. Farly in the first struggle the real issue became apparent to the public. The Murphy code provided new fireproofing restrictions and conditions which effectually changed the status and profitableness of certain fireproofing materials then manufactured, Under the requirements of the old code hollow tile fireproofing could not compete with cinder concrete. Under the proposed Murphy code cinder concrete would not be able to compete with hollow tile At that time a monopoly of the manufacture of hollow tiles was held by the National Fireproofing Company, which was known as the “Fireproofing Trust.” Couns r the National Fireproofing Trust, it transpired, was Daniel F. Cohalan, Grand Sachem of Tammany Hall, who edited the Murphy revised code and was credited with having received a $50,000 tee for his good work in its behalf, Murphy's own interest in the Hollow Tile Trust was believed to be something moro than sentimental, Tt was also generally understood that the Croker family had @erived a fortune from the Roebling Construction Company, which had enjoyed special advantages under the old eode—whence Alder- man Courtlandt Nicoll’s sarcasm in the course of the second fight: “I suppose this means that Croker having got his bulld- ing code, Murphy must now get his.” The first year, by threats, promises and the rallying of all the Tammany strength he could bring to bear against the business in- terests, labor unions and friends of Croker who opposed it, Murphy managed to jam his Building Code through the Board of Aldermen— with but. two votes to spare. Mayor McClellan’s veto killed it. Next} cent in the world, the same as I, time, in 1911, Tammany lost control of the Aldermen and Murphy! found his code thrown out by a vote of 39 to 34, The Murphy theory of the function of a Board of Aldermen, like the Murphy theory of the uses of a or, rests upon the premise that the science of municipal administration is the science of throw- ing sand profits in the right directions, Murphy is at the top of his own profession, But is gain to be permitted to practi it at the expense of New York, with a Hylan in the outer office? ia > Roginning today or to-morrow {t will cont more to send a phone or telegraph beyond a certain distance, to Pullman or in fact travel at all, to go to the theatre and to do many ot things which the average \ average American will pay cheerfully because he well 1 he is paying and for what Letters From the People _ Brening World Daily Magazine _ a Conditional A mericanism vy got hail, By J.

The Apaches solved the problem by going on the path again. They raided Arizona and New Mexico, usually managing” silp back safely to their reservation before they could be caught.
