we firmly believe he has, he can ind as GOOD
reason for taking a hand as.he did In the rapid
transit discussion.
The organization ostentatioalsly. and no doubt
sincerely co-operates with the Governor In the
passare of bills in which he takes real IN
terest In some cases 1t has not been able to
help him, owing TO It's narrow majority In the
Senate and the power Of one or two boilers TO
hold I'D the good measures to which the or
ran,zation is devoted. But there Is no such
difficulty In the Assembly. The organization
there is supreme, and II Governor Roosevelt
seriouslv sets about II he ought to be able 10
hiring the organization to its duty. At present
IL seems determined to kill the Ford bill by
making much virtue Of its preference for
the Rodenbeck bill 1t succeeded In putting
the Ford bill through the Senate, and will have
no excuse for refusing to put 1t through the
Assembly n the Governor asks 1t In the In
cIsive way at his command. which will cut
through fraud and pretence and present the
case so clearly that Assemblymen will not dare
support the franchise rabbers by indirection
This IL a great opportunity for him. The re-
lief of the taxpayers would inure more TO DIS
.u.s,. .ho, ony no,,ce reorganization. The
Ford bill is not piece Of spectacular states
manship but It's enactment would De great
benefit to thousands who bear more than their
share of the public burden while those VINO
grow rich in the free enjoyment OF public prop
erty escape. We hope the Governor can Sc
cure the passage of this bill and prevent the
contemplated deadlock. Yesterday he wrote 10
the Speaker urging action, and 1t remains 10
be seen If private letter Is sufficient incen'
tive to secure 1t. If not, perhaps a ringing
message which would put the pettifoggers open
" in the wrong would be effective. At least
we hone the Governor will not hesitate to en-
nlov this means II necessary to relieve the
taxpayers.

The Mazet committee did not. perhaps. really
need additional authority to examine into the
doings Of politicians who not actually office
holders; but in extending the time for the COM
pletion OF It's labors the Assembly has wisely
given explicit warrant for such examination as
the testimony so far obtained shows TO be
absolutely pertinent and necessary. With men
who admit that they possess the reality OF po-
iitical power using it over the city officials to
make the city government a tender to their
financial enterprises, assuming that business
so founded on the use of the municipal machin-
cry is purely a personal matter not subject to
inquiry. 1t is well 10 start out with ample
thorlty and full determination to follow public
plunderers even behind the fence OF privacy.

pcking. March 10. The Italian
minister here regards as an insult the
manner in which the tsung Ii yamun
has treated Italy's demand for coal
ing station at San Nun bay, and a
rupture of diplomatic relations be

protest against the British railroad

complaint against the Chinese. and
thus seek compensation, territorial or
otherwise.

from Washington says: The Russian
ambassador Count Cassini, who was
for many years the cars representa-

China the first important concessions
regarding the Siberian railroad, speak
