TO the selection Of a Democratic candidate for

in which he parted all illusions TO politics
Give time give me time" he said. to look
around and get my bearings Then shall be ready
TO take up political problems
Concerning stories printed yesterday about
Controller Grout-One that TammanY Hall would
try 10 persuade Mclaughlin TO nominate Grout for
the Supreme Court bench. in order to weaken the
fusion forces and the other that tie Democrats in
tho fusion forces planning TO force the Con-
trollers nomination for Mayor that ticket-the
Sage of Willoughby Street had nothing to say
Both suggestions seemed amuse him. however.
Mr.. Mclaughlin with his family. reached the
Flatbush-ave station of the Long Island Railroad
early in the evening and directly to his home
in Remsen-st. The absence OF the big leaders gave
the small fry a chance TO shine in the role of
welcomers. and they made the most OF their op-
Isortunity. Immediately the old Man dropped
hack into his usual routine. and after dinner made
his customary visit to the rooms OF the veteran
volunteer fremel. in the basement of the Borough
Hall. where he spent the evening chatting with old
cronies and playing dominos.
Politics Why. how do you expect me to talk
politics spending the summer at sleepy lit
tie place the other end of the island?" said Mr.
Mclaughlin when approached by reporter All
the politics heard down there at Jamesport was

quality OF the grub at their various places
Mr.. Mclaughlin scoffed at the idea that eX-
Senator David B. Hill had made a secret trip to
Jamesport. Il guess" he said. that if Mr.. Hill
had made me a secret visit everybody would have
heard all about it,.
An attempt made to draw out Mclaughlin
the turning down of Bird s. Coler chairman
Of the Kings County Democratic Finance Com

Metz, a Shepardite. All he would say was:
They both mighty fine men. Mr.; Metz, !
think, will make excellent chairman
Mr. Mclaughlin denied that he had returned
earlier than anticipated account of the political
situation. There seemed to be nothing 10 worry
about in that line he said.
Tomorrow the next day Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Laughlin will go Newton y. j., the latter $
birthplace. to assist in the celebration of the 10th
anniversary of the founding of that town.

NEED OF SCHOOL OF JOURNALISM.

OF The World regarding the plan of Joseph
Pulitzer for a school of journalism al Columbia
University;
The statement regarding Mr.. Pulitzers plans FOR
a school Of journalism Columbia University in
terests me deeply. I fully believe that the idea
underlying Il and the reason permeating IL are
thoroughly sound and good; that the country has
arrived AT i point where there is great need of
we'll equipped colleges OF the sort proposed and
That the nation has cause 70 be grateful 10 Nj
Pulitzer for making 80 splendid beginning in this
line o. professional instruction
The suggestions made by President Eliot strike
me as excellent and the only thing which seems
TO be left is 10 develop somewhat his last para
graph. in which he states that the student Of
Journalism should have a competent knowledge of
history. government and economics.
This suggestion. il seems TO me, should be borne
especially in mind when the curriculum for the
college IS prepared. OF course, no one can ask
that every man studying with reference TO jour
nalisrn shall be expert i'll all the fields above
named but there ought TO be lectures and eXer-
cises by first men. which shall give to all
thinking students good general knowledge OF
these fields leaving 20 each individual the selec-
