coLER, TAMM4NY c4NDIDATE

The Gl b some days ago i'll COM
expression in certain newspapers
throughout the country regarding New
York city politics called attention 20 the
fact that the reasonable certainty which
existed that Comptroller Coler would be
the .Tammany nominee was being mis-
represented as display of fear on the
part of the Tammany politicians.
It has been plain to well informed OBJ
servers that Golfer would not be the
anti Tamnlany nominee, mostly because he
would not be sufficiently pliabie man in
the hands of the politicians who will be in
the saddle in case Tammany is beaten.
1t has also been plain that there was a
strong likelihood that Coler would be the
Tammany candidate. The G be as
sufned the affirmative on the two propo-
sitiens., Its prediction that he would not
be the anti Tammany candidate mas
been realized while the one that he would
be the Tammany candidate Tor mayor
is apparently in fair way to be fulfilled. I,
s,9Tine mask has been thrown off by the
feformers. They want a fgurehead.
Nothing else viii do them A strong
man, Intention forcing the issue on nu-
nieipal purity would be as offensive TO
them as they say he would be to Tam
many. Coler is a reasonable type of the
city official who wants to getsihe near
est approximation he can TO clean Off
cial life. He has been somewhat Thoughts
less, and tactIess in many of The things
he has done and attempted; but ne was
fresh from the outside when he was
plunged into the vortex of local politics
by being chosen as city comptroller, and
he has learned many things since.
It.would be distinct gain to good gov
eminent if Coler could be chosen as the
Tammany mayeralty candidate. 1t would
put qllietus in all probability on the dis
tinctIys dishonest public movement which
is, now slmasquerading in the big city in
tlsen name of, municipal purifaction. IT
would, moreover, put a man at the head
of Tammany, S, ADMINISTRATION who, what
/ ever arrangements he might enter into
with the lead a 55al it is mere non
sense to assume that he would enter in
to none-would not be a party to any
known wrong-doing. The people would
know that man of honest impulses was
directing their local affairs, and those 0f
the voters who are Democrats in party
7 affairs and disposed to grow FESTIVE and.
turn to the Tammany opposition, would
in large proportion in all probability re-
sumo their attachment to the old organ
ization.
s No; the likelihood that Coler will be
Tammany's candidate for mayor of
Greater New York does not imply that
the Tammany politicians are scared 1t
does imply that the anti-Tamma nyites
have. much reason to be scared, and it
does IMPLY moreover, that Tammany
has the local situation in nand, and
that the group of spurious municipal eva :
gelizers who vaunted their own superior
virtue as one of the ways through which
they hoped Ito get control of the offices
will soon disappear from the stage Col
er or no Coler, Tammany will win in the
next municipal campaign in New York
city.

in aim or method of labor leaders in the
two countries which has caused the lead
ers in the one country to pass away as
it were in an hour and be forgotten, while
and industrial change alike, and pre-
served to themselves the confidence and
good viii OF those whom they have been
chosen to represent? Why is it that the
capable and reliable man in the labor
movement in England is almost invari-
ably placed even in high political office
and kept there by English laborers; while
the American leader is not usually re-
garded as worthy of holding any but mi
nor political appointments?
This is a question which really concerns
the laboring people themselves chiefly.
Whatever be the explanation, the fact
remains that no representative of organ
lied labor has ever been seriously con-
sidered as a candidate for important pub
lie Office either in state or nation in this
country, and none has been put forward
in that character by their own people.
Mr. Powderly holds the position of emil
grafton. commissioner, or something of
that kind, which is an office of no sg-i
nificance. He get it for political services;
and, if the test could be made, it would
doubtless be found true that he would
rot today have the votes of 1 per cent
OF the members of organized labor in this
country to enable him to hold it. Mr..
'Ratchford, OF the Miners organization,
a man OF force and character, was ap-
pointed member of the industrial COM
mission by the late President Mckinley.
and resigned, we believe, to take the po-
sition of labor commissioner of the state
of Illinois Aside from these two, there
is no laboring man in official life whose
name even is known to the people of the
country.
Martin Irons, Eugene Debs, Terrence
Pcwderly have all passed away. they
Fare no more than memory in labor cir
cies. 1t will socn be so with Mr. sharer.
ne ldl6 Oh al VI them Is SNlU6Dtly the
same-oblivion. E
It will probably be found by those who
have sufficient interest in the subject to
inquire into it, that the difference is
chiefly to be found in the different rela-
ticnslip borne toward the labor move
ment by the se-called leader in, the
United States and in England and in the
different lines on which the movement
in the two countries are conducted Strife
and aggression mark, the life Of the.
American labor leader Counsel and CO.
operation are distinctiveiy the functions
represented by the English leader. Can it
be, too, that the character of the man
who comes into prominence in labor cir,
cles in England is superior to that of
him who struts his brief hour of promi
nence in American labor affairs.
American laboring men would do Web
to find the true answers to these CUES
ticns, and satisfy themselves whether.
there is not something radically wrong
either in principe or method inathe, poll
cies which are today in operation among
them in their union affairs

and conservative. When the public tires
the art gallery; when it's appetite for
horseplay is satiated it will relish and
enjoy all the better the creations of
Shakespeare. Women laugh at the antics
of the clown, but they fall in love with
Hamlet. When the people desire informa-
ton; when they want to know what the
world is doing; when they want to be
guided in the serious affairs of life they
buy the paper that is produced by BRAIN
action and not by the action of the cam
era and colored press. But, if they
have nothing to do and do not care to do
it, they will look at the pictures of Allan
Dale and Ella Wheeler Wilcox in the
yellow Journals and perhaps read what
it is alleged they have to say
With the advent of sensationalism the
individuality of the newspaper disap-
peared. The editorial page was crowded
out entirely or reduced to inane COM
ments on inconsequentia1 matters With
the suppression of the carefully written
and we'll digested editorial opinions, on
public matters went the influence of the pa
per. Who cares what man without char
acter says? Who needs the nip2ant or
murky comments of a yellow sheet de-
void of definite policy? The age of the
individual editor has passed. but not so
the age of the individual newspaper The
corporation has taken the place of the
owner and publisher, that is all. The
personality which guides the editorial
policy of the newspaper is there just the
same, and it is that which makes a news
paper a living force among thinking men
1t may take a decade, but the time is not
far off when yellow Journalism will be a.
thing of the past and the conservative
newspaper will again come into it's own.

from the London Express editorial:
We clip from Births, Marriages and

reads as follows:
b. of G, of -, in the full joys of pa
ternity, begs to announce that his wife
gave birth to a daughter yesterday.
Both are doing well. Dec gratias
We omit the name of the advertiser
because of the suspicion, entertained in
all klndlness, that he may be more calm
by this time, and that if he were called
upon to word his advertisement today he
might make some changes in it.
But be that as it may, the innovation is
a good one. How would this do for in
sertion by the father of nine daughters.
the first of whom has just led some one
to the altar:
