Mayor Low.

Tho revolt against Tammany which re-
suited In the election of Seth Low as mayor
of Greater New York was based upon the
iniauties of the Van Wyck administration
Thousands of democrats, putting clean and
wholesome local government above party,
allied themselves with the republicans and
turned the Croker crowd out. The promise
was that Tammany's defeat should mean
honesty In office and a general betterment
of the community. Where there had been
graft there should be integrity. Where
there had been waste there should be wise
economy. Where there had been officials
working for their pockets all the time
there should be officials considering only
the welfare of those whose commissions
they held The fight was won upon this
understanding, and the reformers took
charge.
The men who accomplished this victory
are unanimous in their approval of what
has been done In reforms name. Improve
ment in the towns condition is observable
on every hand. Mr.. Low has met the high
est expectations of his friends. He has
given New York the best government it has
ever had. Naturally. therefore, there Is a
hearty demand for his denomination. The
desire Is that the city continue to benefit
from his services in the mayors chair.
Another term for him will, it Is held, give
good government so solid a foundation
that the grafters will plot in vain for its
overthrow.
But a note of discord has been sounded.
Mr.. Low. 1t Is admitted in certain circles,
Is all that is claimed for him and has made
an excellent official. Reform is good. But
the national question is to be considered.
New York is a democratic city, and next
year President of the United States is to
be elected. 1t is important that a democrat
occupy the mayors chair at that time.
Democratic national success is not possible
without New York, and so the thing to do
is to put democrat in Mr. Lows place.
Select him with care, pledge him up to the
hilt as to good government, and then call
on Tammany to elect him.
1t is a remarkable appeal and wide in
terest has been aroused by it. The source
of the suggestion is easily traced, and the
play If successful may result in recasting
of the whole democratic horoscope for next
year.

The calamity bowler has recently been
brought into prominence by indigo-tinted
prophecies, and these, with shrinkages in
some values, lamentations about water -
trusts" Fictitious values" and 'overcapi-
talization." have caused many people who
do not see beyond the surface to believe
verbal bow-wowS at rate so furiously
fast that only a miracle could stop the
ruinous progress. Merchants, manufac-
turers. importers and middlemen in great
numbers were won over to the side Of dis
trust and fear by these exaggerated re-
ports. and were ready to close shop and go
out of business. All those who have sur
vived the series of shocks which were
hurled at them may be cured and restored
to a normal condition by visiting the whole
sale district and talking to the men who
"see trade"

September Solace,

The birds forsake the rustling trees,
The leaves above are yellowing fast,
The erstwhile sweet and gentle breeze
Now mutters like an infant blast.
But what care we, though song birds fly
From branches that grow bare and grim;
Though zephyrs soft across the sky
No longer bid the white clouds skim?
The bird that's broiling DER the Goals,
The perfume glad that round him flows,
These are the things that thrill our souls
When autumn comes and summer goes.
