4 RTTICAL FIR ENCHN.AN,

The Franco Russian alliance has so
pleased France that perhaps she hasn't
made quite as good a bargain as she
might have made. Some Frenchmen
think so. One of them is NJ Camille
Pelletan, the well known Socialist Dep
uty He approves of the arrangement
which he thinks is useful to the whole
of Europe, as we'll as to France and
Russia, But France, in his opinion,
has not benefited enough by it, owing
to the erroneous notion that the Gear,
in contracting the alliance, was grant
ing a favor. The two countries, he
thinks, ought to live on, a complete
equality footing for France in addi-
ton to her army and navy, has placed

VAN WYCK As MAYOR AND JUDGE

"a " " U n ~ VI n w II ~ II ~ CIbd n,
The campaign in New York is warm

York Bar association declared Mayor
Van Wyck unfit for the position of
Supreme court justice to which he has
been nominated by Tammany. because
as mayor he has conspicuously dis
played qualities showing that he lacks
the judicial temperament, The Bar
association at the same time Endorsed
all the other candidates for the Su-
many or the Republicans. This action
has made much talk, and some Of the
the Brooklyn Eagle points out that of
the fifteen hundred members Of the
present at the meeting, and it adds:
Mayor Van Wyck was for many years
then next in rank to the Supreme court.
His service on the bench was the sub
ject of no unfavora Bile comment from
the bar, the public or the press. His
record in one judicial office is not made
the cause of this criticism of him as
an aspirant for another judicial office.
One would think that his judicial rec
ord ought to be made the criterion for
estimate of his judicial capabilities.
That has not been done. His record in
an administrative office-the mayoral-
ty-has led these two hundred lawyers,
of whom three -fourths are Republicans
and of whom most, if not indeed, all,
are said to have voted against him for
mayor, to pass this censure on him.
If the Bar association hasn't been
fair the people will attend to the mat
ter when voting day comes 1t Is re-
membered that two years ago the Bar
association took action against Judge
Leventritt, who was elected in spite of
it, and who is now looked on as a
thoroughly competent and fair minded
judge. Boss Croker says the action of
the association wont hurt Van Wyck,
