when Mr.. Roosevelt undertook to
REFORM New York city," says the Post,
by directing the power OF the police
department. to the enforcement Of the
obsolete Sunday laws, he doubtless
counted on the support Of his Repub-

supposed that all violators Of law, ex-

children who sold flowers on Sundny
would suspend business so that his d.
version OF preventive and protective
agencies into a single ard unusual
channel might work no harm. But
these ahticipations have been cruelty

the great metropolis because of Mr..
Roosevelt's failure to reform that mo-

about reformation, hear what the Tri-
