Mr. SAGE IN A NEW ROLE.

Nearly two months ago Mr. George Could
writing TO the president of the Rapid Transit
Commission by the fine Italian hand Of the
counsel TO the Manhattan Company. thus eX-
pressed himself: THE trouble with your Board
"is fear. deep seated Municipal construction
"of tunnels in Now-York City Is the ambition Of
"vour official existence The conclusion is forced
upon us that our interests are secondary" This
was an extraordinary announcement. but there
was certain humorous favor to It which
made its audacity rather pleasing. Since then
the negotiations have proceeded without any
admixture of wit until yesterday. when Mr.
Russell Sage appeared upon the scene with
contribution of similar character. Said Mr.
Sage:
We anticipate nothing from the Commission
II parades the hole IN the ground" scheme in
the face Of all reasonable proposals for The
benefit Of the city's transportation facilities
/ The Commission evidently thinks 70 continue
| its eVasive tactics in the hope that II may he
able to force it's ideas upon the taxpayers but
the time has come when the interests or the
people demand that they he legislated out Of
office This method seems n he the only enc
whereby the city's transportation facilities con
be improved.
Now. Mr.. Sage has never figured in this COM
munty as humorist. but vet we think he
must he done Otherwise, how can anybody
possibly explain his remark that the Rapid
Transit Commission IS hoping by continuation
of its evasive tactics TO force It's ideas upon
the taxpayers? Mr. Sage is well known to be
I in the full possession Of all his excellent facu-
ties. including n long memory. and conse-
Ouenty he must he aware that the Commits
sion's ideas are the ideas which the taxpayers
approved by majority Of more than three 10
one at time when there so many mo-
mentous issues at stake that they would have
been certain TO ignore the rapid transit Ques-
ton II they had not considered 1t of immense
importance. Mr. Sage knows also. and per-
haps better than any other living nan. that the
city's transportation facilities would have been
improved long ago except for the warm friend
ship which has always existed between Tam
many Hall and the Manhattan Company; and
vet this suddenly discovered humOrist declares
that the only way Of improving them is TO
legislate the Rapid Transit Commission out Of
office What a funny way TO put the case
when everybody knows that II the Manhattan
Company could have been egislated out Of ex
stence fast trains would be running
swiftly through clean and brightly lighted tun-
nels between the ends Of the city. 10 the great
satisfaction of millions Of persons. Mr. Sage
has been a successful man. hut yet think
he missed his vocation Wits are scarce.
