EXCESS OF REFORM.

1t rs not to be doubted that the New
York election hinged more upon the
merits of the passing Strong admins

issues.

Tracy's, by partisan zeal or devotion
to abstract national principles. That

but of these a great part would have
been advocates of his peculiar notions

which had more hope of execution I'M
der a reformer like George than under
any ordinary politician.
In Gen. Tracy's case he had the par
tisan republican support supplemented
by a considerable respectable contin-
gent, who could not swallow Tammany
and who yet opposed the "unco good
policy represented by Mr.. Low.
Mr. Low was handicapped by popu-
lar disapproval of the Raines liquor

the Strong administration. Strong

Washington, d. c., Nov. 25.-Speak-
ing of bird life last evening at the Ma
tional Museum, Frank M. Chapman, Of

annually destroyed to ornament the
hats and costumes of women and chill

'TThe greatest enemies the birds
have" said Mr.. Chapman, ARE the
milliners and the women who patron
ize them, and in that way become ex-
ponents of a savage, heartless spirit.
Fully 100000 900 birds are annually
killed" said the lecturer, "to satisfy
the dictates Of heartless fashion
Yet" he said, "the world would be-
come uninhabitable should the birds
become extinct, and they surely will,
he added, "if the present warfare or

people, more of birds, or their useful

ments, should commence investigating

to them, also, to find out WHERE the

We have been steadily advising
against buying consigned Pianos;
against purchasing from irresponsible

in force in this state today the work
ing people would not be ready to vote
a change from the competitive wage
system to state ownership and control
of all lands and utilities. There is
very little chance for change in con-
ditions of the producers, until they can
be educated to a realization that here
is no need of any different political
system than the one now in vogue so
long as they remain in ignorance of
the fundamental cause of their pres
ent conditions.
The Swiss have adopted the initia-
tive, referendum and imperative re-
call, but the producers are in as sorry
plight as ever before. Glass distinc-
tions and pauperism are still as prev
alent as ever. No, it is useless to
look topolitics until a rational sys-
TEN of justice and equity has been
ground into the people. Nothing will
educate the voter like hard experience.
Theory without demonstration will not
go with the average workingman to-
day. He will tell you cooperation is
all right in theory but he wants some
| one else to demonstrate it before he
will take kindly to it, and then he
must be assured good wages payable
in gold" before he will work in the
cause. Education is what is most
needed, not more laws. labor Ex-

TAMMANY NEWsPAPER.

For some time Tammany Hail. in
New York, has needed an organ. Boss
Tweed, the most notorious leader Tam
many ever had used to say that he
did not mind what the newspapers
said of him, because most of his fol-
lowers were, fortunately, unable to
read. That the percentage of Hitter
acy in the wigwam has diminished, is
shown by Mr.. Cookers anxiety to have
a newspaper. He has secured the
Morning Telegraph, heretofore a sport
ing publication.
Without any wish to criticise the
political ideas represented by Mr..
Croker it may be said that an out
and-out Tammany newspaper has new
er been successful, from the counting
room point of view. When the late
John Kelly was head of the wigwam,
the Star was his medium for address
ing the public at large. Although at
that time Tammany cast an enormous
vote at every election, the Stars cir
Culation was not great, and its adver-
ing patronage was small. 1t
died after a lingering illness. Then
there was an interval, during
which Tammany had no daily
newspaper. Daily America was
started in the interest of the Four
teenth street warriors, and about the
| same time William Cauldwell got out
daily edition of his old Sunday, Mer-
| curry. These two papers announced
that they had come to stay. They did
not stay long. Finding that separate
existence was neither pleasant nor pro-
| fitable, they were merged into one con-
Germ. If every man who voted the
| Tammany ticket had taken the .Ameri.

a handsome circulation, but no man is
going to read dull, inaccurate news.

NO GOOD MAP OF CUBA.

Any landsman who tries to buy a
good map of Cuba will learn the sur
prising fact that no such map has ever
been made, and that even its coasts
are for the most part either uncharted
correctly that the captains of vessels
in approaching any except few Of
the islands most important harbors are
such information as their own eyes
and sounding lines will supply. This
may not seem like a very important
customed to think of Cuba as an out
of-the-way part of the world, in which
many characteristics of new and I'M
explored region are pardonable. In
reality, however this lack of maps and
charts shows the quality of Spanish
rule as clearly as do the murders of
non-combatants or the wholesale mis-
appropriation Of public funds about
which every correspondent has so
much to say. AS countries in the new
world go, Cuba is very old. The Span
iards began to explore it in 1892, and
since 1911, except for a single year,
they have had uninterrupted possession
of it. And in 400 years they have not
had time enough to spare from the
task of draining the islands resources
even to survey its coasts. The idea
of adding Cuba to the civilized world
never occurred to them. The only
thought was to establish at Havana
and in a few other places great fort
resses, by which the island could be,
not governed, but controlled, and any
thing that would help general COM
merce was carefully left undone-New

MARRIAGE.

For the benefit of sceptics,
bigots, fools and towards, disape
pointed lovers, Tilted sweethearts
and unfortunate married men, ]
would suggest the following quo'
tations as very appropriate to the
subject of matrimony:
Marriage has in it less beauty,
but more safety, than single life i.
It hath not more ease, but less
danger. 1t is more merry and
more sad. 1t is fuller of sorrows
and fuller of joys. 1t lies under
more burdens, but is supported by
all the strength of love and char,
ity, and those burdens are de
lightful. .
s.Ihey talk about woman's sphere as
though it had a limit;
There's not pleasure on earth OF
heaven,
There not task to mankind given,
There's not 8 blessing nor woe,
There's not q whispered yes or no.
There's not q life, or death or birth,
That has feathers weight of worth
Without a woman in it.
