THE MARKETS.

Quotations By Telegraph for The Times
Commercial Readers.
Paine. Murphy Co.'s Stock Letter.
Savannah, Dot. 26.-There was an
improved tone to the market today
and the market enjoyed a general
rally. The better prices from London
and buying by arbltrage houses were
first encouraging influences. The
prospect that the cabinet would be
dispersed over election day, thereby
affording opportunity for lull in
diplomacy in connection with our
Spanish relations, was negatively pub
lished.

Tho Big Thing First.

The Citizens Union platform OF mu-
nicipal questions only" was abandoned by
Mr.. Low the very first step he took as q
candidate, and the purely State issue Of
the liquor law was put to the front. The
Citizens Union platform was left for what
It is, an empty sham.
OF course the State liquor law concerns
che city Of New York very greatly. So
does the national tariff. Sodo the st. Louis
and Chicago platforms. OF incomparably
greater consequence to this city han the
Raines law or even tho tariff is the ques-
zion Of Organism and anti-Bryanism.
As the Low movement has absolutely
nothing to do with that question, we invite
all good citizens who are in it to leave the
political kindergarten from which Mr.. Low
has played truant, and follow the Republi-
can party in laboring to protect New York
against the fraud. the disaster, and the dis
grace Of Organism.

IL excluded by his professed principles.
Moreover, why did he not accomplish this
end In the charterf
He is "heartily In favor" Of underground
rapid transit ut the cost Of the city. That
is a municipal matter, certainly, but what
has It to do with the coming municipal
election9 When the consolidation of next
January takes effect the constitutional
Limitation of the city's Indebtedness will
prevent it from going into the enormous
and ~incalculable expense OF building the
road. For that reason the clique who are
trying to put on the city hat crushing
load are now using whip and spur to drive
through the scheme before January comes,
with its absolute constitutional bnr. No
one knows better than Mr.. Low him
self that the next Mayor Of New York can
do nothing in the matter, for he has been
one Of the Rapid Transit Commissioners.
His words are a mere bid for ignorant or
prejudiced votes.
He believes 1.-THE labor avs of the State
should be administered in the letter and in
the spirit !" but so they must be admin
istered by every officer intrusted with their
execution, under judicial Interpretation.
That is only another bid for unthinking
support, and is pure d~emagogy.
Such is the letter Of SETH Low, incon-
sistent with the professed principles of his
candidacy, without craftsmanship Of view
or tone, and demagogical. 1t contains no
suggestion Of real Importance, and will
soon drop out of the public thought. Tam.
many will outbid It's demagogy, for the
votes Mr.. Low is after are its natural pos
session. He says he is a Republican. What
sort Of a Republican is a man who takes a
candidacy directly opposed to the Repub-
lican party and created solely for It's dis
organizationa 1t Is a demonstration made
expressly to get votes away from the Re-
publicans.
Finally. says Mr.. Low, 1T could wish
that the popular movement which you rep.
resent had designated some other man to
lead in the great struggle" for he would
have been glad "to serve In the ranks"
Why, then. does he not withdraw 1t has
been demonstrated to him and everybody
else that he is the only obstacle to the unity
Of the friends Of good government" and
that only in the ranks can he render SER
vice in the great struggle. That struggle
will be over an issue ignored by him with
fatuous blindness. It will be against Bry-
anism, Inc it will give a fierce intensity to
the campaign of next month that will con.
sumo the rubbishy issues so laboriously
fabricated by him.

Tho Meeting Of tho Fifty.

The main interest that can be felt In the
meeting of the Democratic State Committee
to-day is psychological. Can the emotion
of cowardice be communicated to the ma
jority of a band of fifty men' Or, to put
the question In a moro concrete form, can
the majority of a band of fifty supposed
representatives of the Democratic party be
induced by the emotion Of cowardice,
whether original with them or communi-
Gated by others. to show that they are not
Democrats save in name2
Out OF respect to the committee, We
have put i~nterrogatively what should be
put afflrmatively. After to-day 1t will be
impossible to respect the committee, forthe
majority of its members will have shown
that they are not Straightforward poll
ticians or honest party men. They are
going to vote down a resolution indorsing
the Chicago platform, name a candidate
for Chief Judge of the Cour Of Appeals,
and scatter to their holes as quickly as they
can. A fine programme and worthy Of
brave menl
The Hon. HUGH MCLAUGHLIN, tho Hon.
EDWARD MURPHY, and the Hon. DAVID
BENNETT HILL compose the triumvirate Of
trimmers which has persuaded or forced a
majority OF the so-called Democratic State
Committee to hide Its head, or want Of
head, and to cut itself Off temporarily from
the national Democratic party. What do
these hunted ostriches of Organism expect
to gain by this spirited policy of being
afraid of Democratic principles7 Reputa-
tion7 They will need all they can get after
to-day, but they will get a curious kind. Do
they expect to gain votes7 The New York
Democrats, organized and u~norganized,
who are faithful to the Chicago platform,
will show them how many votes can be lost
by treating that platform with contempt.

Not o Republican.

Mr.. Lows platform, found in his letter
accepting the Citizens Union nomination
for Mayor, begins with the polite phrase
IL am a Republican"
But If Mr.. Low Is a Republican, what
makes him sol Not the tariff, for on that
question, the first to be acted upon by the
Republican party, Mr.. Low is a Mugwump.
He resigned from the Republican organize
ton because Of Its attitude on the tariff,
and there is no evidence to show that he
has changed his views. Mr.. Low must i'm.
agine himself to be a Republican, therefore,
on the other, much greater and still unde.
termined issue of Organism, or the Chicago
platform, with its dishonest money and in.
cendiary assault upon the very foundations
of civilization and social order. He an
nounces himself to be a Republican because
that party is opposed to the Chicago plat
form and all that it represents.
Between anti-Bryanism and Organism,
between Republicans and Democrats, the
struggle is as serious and as supreme In
Importance as 1t ever was. The Demo-
cratic party is absolutely in the control
OF the Bryanites, vehemently resolved upon

by Mugwumps nagging the Republicans
continuously for every petty fault dis.

Mr.. Low softly and piously appeals to
the Republican citizens of New York
to drop the struggle against Organism
and the principles which make their
party glorious, for the sake of ~electing him
Mayor on a non partisan, anti-Republican
platform. Tammany Hall is full of Repub-
licans of this kind. For practical purposes
Mr.. Low is as good a Republican as VIII.
LIAM j. BRYAN, and no better.

Our Future Admirals.

OF the ten recommendations made by the
Board of Visitors to the Naval Academy, in
It's report recently handed in, three or foul
are specially important.
To begin with, it is proposed that candi.
dates for the Academy shall be appointed
not later than Sept. ! of each year. exam,
amined the following April at the naval
station nearest their home, and, If success,
full. shall report in May for practical work
during the summer before the regular
course in October. That cadet appoint
ments should be made early enough to allow
preparation is obvious, and the West Point
authorities long ago arranged for the exam.
ination of candidates near their homes,
But the proposed four or five months OF
practical work before the regular naval
course is striking, and the plan seems to
promise good results.
The recommendation that the entrance
age be reduced to a minimum of IS and a
maximum Of Is years is not new, having
often been made by other boards, but 1t
seems entirely SOUND. Since It is proposed
that the course shall be only four
years long the commission as Ensign
will come at the age of % at Oldest. and
may come at 10; whereas, in past years.
not only has the entrance age been more
advanced, but the course before commission
including the two years at sea, has been
six years. One of the chief reasons urged
for the line reorganization measure now
pending in Congress is that navy officers
arrive at command rank at a period too
late in life, the habit of not taking final
responsibility becoming too ingrained in
some of them for the best results in service.
If 80, the change now proposed, by bringing
them several years earlier to Independent
commands, must commend itself. 1t is also
proposed. we may add, that "the tradi.
tional and time-honored title of midship.
man" shall be used instead of cadet. A
recommendation that the classes shall here,
after be known by the date of their entrance
may provoke opposition.
But a proposal which is perhaps more
noteworthy than any other is this:
THAT the four years curriculum DO alike for all,
so that every graduate shall enter the service under
like conditions. and he assigned TO alternating duties
on deck, in the engine room. or In charge of the pur
chasing and commissary departments OF the vessel

Tho Club S~wingers.

There was a time, not so many years ago,
when this title would have denoted an In
dustrious and by no means inartistic class
of indoor athletes who cultivated the pro-
portions of their arms and trunk by
revolving in all manner of curving compli-
cations the exceedingly clumsy Implements
known as Indian clubs. To-day, thanks
to the electric spark Of sport which
flashed across the ocean to us the mo
ment that 1t flared in England, "club
swinging" stands for the far less de-
vious, infinitely moro interesting and
far more subtle s~ky-crowned exercise
known as golf. Near every considerable
town and at every ambitious summer re-
sort is heard the swish of the golf club mt
the hum of the golf ball, clear and high in
note, in accordance with the perfection of
the players art.
For the moment all good golfers are at
Chicago, slashing away IN the links at
Wheaton to win the championship, an an
nual honor that lasts for a year. So wide Is
the American interest in this most beautiful
and most accommodating of sports, that
probably the public attention now centred
upon the Chicago golf field nearly equals
that given to the deciding game in the
yearly struggle in baseball, or, we might
almost say, to a race for the Americas cup.
This year naturally finds ten good Amer
lean golf players where there was one a
year ago, and some very good ones where
there was none a year Ago.. There is a
scattering Of hope that perhaps some
American will win the championship,
even against the accomplished foreigners
who can exploit among US the learning of
Scotland. For US, of course, the American
vided he comes in unquestionable shape.
But genuine devotion to art and science de-
mands that from among the varied styles
illustrated by the players now gathered
in competition for the championship,
the style which is most truly academic
by the dynamic theory which ought to make
the most perfect stroke, shall win over any of
the awkward, "get there" and accidentally
effective styles employed by the novices
who fly the American flag by right of birth.
Better that the highest standards of the
securely in this country than that the spe-
cious success of some eccentric form of skill
should mislead the general aims and ideals.
Let US as golfers be not only good, but
beautiful. In the championship, for which
the preliminary qualifying round was de-
cided yesterday and the actual struggle be-
gins to-day, may the best golfer win.
