woman suffrage are based on new
grounds. Perhaps the most remarkable
Is that OF the editor of the New York
Evening Post, who. In a late magazine
article, calls the boss" a necessity in
modern Democracy who would have en-
tirely too much upon his hands with
the doubling OF the vote through wom-
an suffrage, Some of us are inclined
to think that the last clause is true
but II men cannot dispense with these
services the remedy would seem to be a
division OF work under more bosses.
Otherwise we must suppress the coun-
try for the sake of the b2sses, so as
to kindly see that they are not over
worked. If this humanitarian ground
is rejected and the difficulty is solely
one of manipulation, then democracy
belongs properly to a small republic
our dimensions become appalling. In
range with this come later declarations
from other opponents denying the basic
principle of the Declaration of Inde-
pendence, but even this cannot invali-
date the claim Of woman suffragists
for any government, in the minds Of
common sense people, will have Its d.
visions along lines Of property, educa-
tion, intelligence, capacity or at least
morality. That heritage, in all these

THE CHARTER FOR
GREATER NEW YORK
Legislative Power to be Vested Ia az
Assembly Of Two Houses.
THE MAYOR WILL BE SUPREME
Second Only to the governor Of the
state-city VIII BE Divided Into
Five Boroughs. "

New York. December 24s--The draft
OF the proposed charter Of the Greater
New York as submitted to the COM
mission. win be published tomorrow.
The legislative power Is to be vested
in municipal assembly. to consist
OF two houses. the lower house Of i04
members. elected nom the senatorial
districts. and an upper house. OF thirty
seven members, elected from the coun-
Gil districts. All members Of both
houses are to be elected for term Of
two years. and all are 10 retire az
once.
AS to everything concerning the
rights. privileges and liberties Of citi-
zens. respecting municipal rule, the leg
islative department Is 70 be subject to
no restraint. But in respect to public
improvements. the action Of the NUM-
cipal assembly is to be further subject
ed to the concurrence Of a board Of
estimates and apportionment.
! The mayor is to have the power to ap-
point all administrative and executive
officers Of the city. except the control
Ter. who is rendered elective by the
people every four years, so that the
treasury and finances VIII constantly
be in the hands Of an independent de-
partment.
The mayor Is to have supervisory con-
troll over the various departments and
an enlarged veto power upon the acts
Of the municipal assembly. His patron
age and his power are 90 great that he
win, in this particular. be a dignitary
second only in Importance to the gov
ernOr Of the state.
The greater New York Is to be dlyid-
ed into hve boroughs; Manhattan. The
Bonx. The Brooklyn. The Queens and
Richmond, and certain degree OF
home rule is to be granted to the bor-
oughs.
The committee concluded not to deal
with municipal ownership. but says:
From an original and ideal standpoint
1t is easy to see that the city would
become the recipient Of vast revenues
by the ownership and operation OF all
franchises. In Greater New York, how
ever, private capital. upon the faith Of
the state, is embarked largely in such
franchises. 1t would take sum too
vast to be hastily computed to acquire
the properties thus vested in private
persons. by fair compensation"

NEW HOME RULE
PLANS FOR CUBA
The People to Elect Their Own Con-
0ress Of Thirty Members.
CONTROL OF TARIFF LAWS
Proposed Changes Have Yet TO BE Sub
mltted to the Cortes-suitable
Christmas Act.

Washington. December A.-An i'm
portant step toward the plan Of home
rule for Cuba has been taken by Span
ish authorities.
The former plan proposed, but not
executed. some months ago, provided
for Cuban congress OF thirty menu
bers. Of whom the queen regent was 10
name fifteen and the people OF Cuba
we're TO elect fifteen. II is now pro-
posed to do away with that part OF the
plan providing for the naming Of mem
bers by the queen regent. so that the
entire congress will be elected by the
Cuban people This, and the entire con-
trol given to Cuba In the making Of the
tarlff laws Of the island will constitute
the essential features OF the new plan
OF home rule.
That provision giving the people the
election Of the entire congress is felt TO
carry out the spirit, as well as the let
ter Of the idea Of home rule.
Thus far only the general nature Of
the proposed changes has been made
known TO the officials in Washington.
and the draft OF the revised plan Of re-
forms has not been received. nor is II
likely to he completed until after the
completion Of the Porto Rico reforms
which will be signed by the queen re-
gent as a suitable Christmas act.
Under the Spanish system it will b,
necessary TO submit the foregoing
changes to the cortes. which is not nov
In session. and is not likely to NEE
before February.

Mr. Goldtogle has daughter who is

Mr., Simpson, the stock broker, sent
her a big box of candy and asked her

FOR PEACE.

London. December 24-The cores
pondent of the Standard at Madrid
says:
All rumors of the acceptance of Unit
ed States mediation dn Cuba) is pre-
mature yet, but it is undeniable that
the Spanish people are growing less re-
fractory to the idea of some under
standing with the United States If only
the idea of Cuban independence is
dropped and Spain is allowed to exc
cute her own ideas Of colonial reform.
All rumors pointing to unofficial ac-
tion by European powers are unfound-
ed, except that the powers generally
have advised Spain to grant to her col
onies autonomy and to make her own
terms with the United States If she can
so hasten the pacification of Cuba.

police authorities have been notified
here and they have telegraphed to Port

be matter of a day or two before
the robbers are apprehended. Even the
property man complains the loss OF his

diamonds being missing. Although the
company was forced to dismiss the au-
