THE REAL KING.

Mr.. Wheeler III. Peckham, a prominent
New York lawyer, made speech before
the Good Government Club. of which the
following is an extract:
The day Of the lobby is practically no more
1ammany Hall takes the place Of the lobby
At It's head is a man who handles large
amount OF money yearly. and is accountable TO
no one. He says whether bill will pass or
not. Many people pay large amounts for
peace, as they put it. The Metropolitan Tele-
phone Company pays, understand, $50, 900 q

which pays similar amount | tell you that

peace" means in such cases immunity
from interference. The man at the head
of Tamm my, who handles a large amount
Of money and is accountable 10 no one,
practically determines, not only what a
monopoly should pay for the privilege Of
doing business on its own terms, but what
unlawful pursuits may be followed with
out interference. TIE man at the head Of
Tammany. who handles a large amount Of
money and is accountable TO no one, is. in
sense, an assessor and tax collector, W ho
puts the proceeds of his eXactionS in the
treasury of Tammany, to be used among
other things to carry the next election.
The Sun. in defense of Tammany, does
not deny the truth of this charge. II does
not believe that man of Mr.. Peck hams
standing would make such charge with
out some foundation for it. But the Sun
in;imates that instead of being made at a
public meeting they should have been
made in way 10 receive judicial inquiry.
judicial inquiry with Tammany Judges ON

pay American wool-growers the present
low rates for the raw material OF the
finished goods they will flood our mar
ket with. The outlook may be cheer
full from an English point of view. but to
the American woolgrower the hope OF
selling his raw material in foreign coun-
try is not strong enough diet to live
upon. The foreign wool market. like the
foreign wheat market, will be controlled
by the cheapest source Of foreign supply.
The American wool-gro wer will of neces-
sity abide by that market. The home de-
mand for his product will be destroyed or
greatly impaired. The American Consul
at Bradford may have thought that he was
holding out to American wool-growers
fatterng prospect, but it is prospect
that does not bear examination. by the
way, it would be interesting to know II
this American Consul at Bradford is
American except in an official sense.

THE PROGRESS OF SURGERY.

Ono of the most interesting magazine
articles Of the day Is the one which DR..
George f. Schrady contributes to the April
Forum on American achievements in sur
gerry. Few laymen are aware OF the ad-
vance which has been made in this
science in the last third of a century. and
what share Americans have had in the
work.
Though anesthesia dates from half
century ago, the great studies of Ameri-
can surgery began during the war. 1t
was then that army doctors discovered
they could save limbs by excising the bone
in preference to amputation, and that the
old cumbrous machinery for adjusting
fractures of the thigh and other long
bones could be replaced to advantage by a
simple weight and pulley extension which
made the muscles themselves do the duty
OF splnts. Thus reused to activity, the
surgical intellect OF the United States
adds discovery to discovery, and invention
to invention, un til now our surgeons stand
at the head of their profession. 1t is to
them that we owe the use OF plaster oil
paris splints and corsets for the reduction
OF fractures, and the treatment of spinal
deformities. One of them. DR.. T. Marion
Sims, revolutionized gynecology. and de-
vised more cures for female diseases than
