MORE TAMMANY LAWBREAKING.

Tor Golf fnosino "saviors of society" Mayor
McClellan's campaign managers certainty w
have most unfortunate habit of breaking the
laws Only few days back the Mayor hiiseii'
in the face of a storm of outraged pubic sehti-
ment and incidentally the violated Penal ooue'
had to order the taking down of a lot OF ram
many banners which not only offended common
decency but also fiagrantly broke the law lor
the protection of the American flag from desc
Grafton. It might have been supposed that les
son would have been sufficient to teach the
Tammany campaigners respect for the law, but
apparently it was not. In their Unsuitable craze
for defamation they next conceived the NOTION
of flooding the mails with hundreds Oh thou-
sands of postal cards bearing prints OIL Tue
revolving Czolgosz cartoon, which they are
Haunting upon banners and posters. But IN so
doing they have run foul OF the federal Id"
against misuse of the mails. The law speclhcal-
ly excludes from the mails:
Anv postal card upon which any delineations,
epithets terms language. OF an 1ndecehl,
lewd lascivious obscene, libellous, scurrlious,
defanatory or threatening character, or caIcu-
lated and obviously intended to reflect
injuriously upon the character or conduct OF an
other.
The statute also contains this provision, which
may interest Mr.. Murphy:
Any persoa who shall knowingly deposit or
cause to be deposited. for mailing or delivery,
onvthin, declared to be non-mailab BILE

ayers have tried to send out. If such stuff could
be sent through the mails on postal cards, the
f1oodgates might as well be opened TO every
conceivable libel. AS for the penalties pre-
scribed by the law for the offence they may per-
force be waived. Not even honest graft has
accumulated enough plunder to pay $4,000 for
each of the hundreds of thousands of law break
ing cards which have been dumped into the
postoffice; nor is the aggregate expectation OF
life in Tammany Hall sufficient to endure the
Imprisonment which might be prescribed.

An Independent Forecast of the Vote
From The New-York Evening Post

From The New-York Evening Post
we are bound to say that all the evidence which
comes 10 US is that Hearst is cutting deem inio
the normal TaInmany vote. Several trustworthv
poiis rahef and reported To this newspaper conf
dentiay. show that he viii have from four bs
10 of certain classes votes that woid
orolnariiy 80 TO Iammany. No one pretends that
any such proportion of Republican votes is anv-
where detachable for Hearst. Consequently there
is much larger secure nucleus behind Twins than
can be said today TO be behind Mcclellan. What
the doubters Will do We cannot say but our honest
opinion is that If their chief anxiety Ia how to de-
feat Hearst they could most surely do IL by mass
ing their forces in support of WINS And il It Is
simply question of voting for the best equipped
and most unbossabe candidate. the conclusion is

The Mayor has asked no Republican to vote
for him as such. He has addressed himself,
not to partisanS, but to those who forget poll
tics when 1t comes to the matter of providing
for the transaction of municipal business.
-(The Brooklyn Eagle.
But the Mayor has right to ask voters
to forget politics. He has repudiated any such
theory of government and appealed to them as
partisans He asked them to elect him two
years ago in order to defeat President Roosevelt
in the following year. His own chickens are
now home to roost.

1t was the first Sunday in their pref
~ new fat, and Mrs. G. determined
to celebrate the joyous day with
dinner which would make her young
husband think he had married not only
'the sweetest girl in the world,' but
'the best cook" 1t was perfectly
lovely to set the little round dining
room table with the incest presents.
and the preparation Of a tempting
salad and dessert was not exactly
trying ordeal, but the roasting Of the
chicken made her little nervous. Aft
er succeeding, with the assistance of
a large oilcloth book, in getting the
fowl into the oven she sang from sheer
relief. A little later, when the music
had ceased and the silence In the
kitchen became suspicious, Mr.. G.
opened the door. Kneeling down be-
fore the oven, with flushed face and
fearful eyes, was Mrs. G. On the
floor beside her was the cookbook, and
In one hand was a long needle with
white thread. "Oh, dearie," she cried,

the writer Of some "reminiscences of

failed to kill either one of brace of
pheasants that had risen within easy
range near Smiths house.

hardly necessary to observe, was dis

the motive. Undoubtedly Mrs. Will
liams or her grandson were forced to
tell the hiding place of the money.
1t is generally believed in s.Lanoha
Plana that Mrs. Williams refused to
tell where her money was and that
the robber, after cutting her throat,
rang the bell to summon her grand
son home. That he forced the boy at
the point of the still bloody knife to
tell where the gold was secreted, and
that after having secured it he forced
the boy to accompany him, probably
intending to throw him into the
river. Probably young Maker real
lied that he was going to his death
and that he made stand for his life
on the spot where his body was
found. Then, again, we're there one
or two murderersf There are many
points yet to clear up, but sheriff
Norman will hardly fail now. The
photographs in the manger will lead
to the murderer, and probably within
a few days.
Sheriff Norman is almost worship
ped in that rough section along the
Mokelumne river. He is a clever
mountaineer and an untiring work
er, and is as brave as he is reticent.
Norman has worked hard on this
case, and he has worked to definite
purpose. The writer knows, for he
followed in some of Norman's foot
steps yesterday and got the above
facts from original sources.
The Stockton mail of the 9Th has
the folling in an extended article on
this subject
1t is believed now that but for the
fact that Love came to Stockton and
got drunk after spending much of his
coin with woman of the half world,
the alibi that he had intended to
establish would have worked out to
better advantage for himself. 1t was
probably part of his plan to go to
Sacramento, but he failed of his pur-
pose. He is known as great walker,
snd his ability in that direction
enables him to cover long distances
in remarkably short time. It IL
believed that he hoped by this means
to show himself in aeveral places and
thus establish an alibi, though
whether he took Murphy into his
confidence in this regard is question.
Murphy and Love were seen together
in Lockeford and Clements day or
two before tht killing, but they
separated at Lockeford, returning by
different routes.

BUYING A WATCH.
TilIed Cases, Plated Cases and Good
and Rad Movements.


and Rad Movements.
"Not many men know how to buy
Watch,' said a jeweler, land to large
extent they have to rely on the honesty
of the dealer So complicated is the
business that even we go to the fac
tories ourselves and arrange for spe-
cial work in order to get the proper ar
ticle, for, of course, we could not as
say every case we receive.
Nov, how many people know the
difference between a filled case and one
that is plated? a filed case, you see,
Is q composition that resembles steel,
with plate Of gold on each side, that
on the outer being thicker than the in
side. Such cases are guaranteed not
to wear through within FIVE, ten, if
teen or up to twenty-five years, the
limit of the guarantee made by the
reputable houses. If man offers you
case warranted for thirty or forty
years you are going to be bunkoed If
you buy it. When you see watches Of
fered for sale as gold filed for So or
81 depend upon 1t they are plated, and
mighty thinly too.
'Tn the matter of watch movements"
he continued, "the buyer is really at
the mercy Of the dealer. In one big
factory about 5000 movements are
made every day. There is certain to
be haste in that sort of output, and the
name on the dial does not make up for
imperfections. To avoid these a first
class jeweler arranges for several hun
dred movements to be delivered a year
hence.
"a strictly first class movement re-
quires six months exactly in its pas
sage through the factory from the be-
ginning to the finished product ready
to offer for sale. Such goods are then
stamped with the name Of the firm for
which they are made and that firm has
to stand sponsor for them. The Swiss
watch, in its higher class, is the best
movement In the world today. Of
course there are cheap Swiss move
ments that you can be. Cor So or "a,

INAUGURATION BALLS.

The First Was MadisOn's, Saturday
Evening, March 4, 1909.
Four hundred guests, as all the con-
temporaneous accounts agree, gathered
at the first Inauguration ball, which
took place on the evening of Saturday,
March 4, 1909, at Mr.. Longs hotel, on
Capitol hill, in celebration of the ac-
cession to the presidency Of James
Madison. Each Of the three presidents
who had preceded him in Office had
been permitted to close the day of his
Inauguration by going early to bed.
General Washington and John Adams
had been inaugurated at temporary
capitols, and Thomas Jefferson would
have rebelled against a ceremony
plainly modelled upon the customs of
royalty, but when Madison's inaugu-
ration came the new federal city had
been a visible fact for nine years and
was determined to assert right to
enjoy itself Even in doing so 1t fol
lowed a habit always hitherto associ-
ated with the celebration of the coro-
nation of kings
Royal customs were really Lne only
ones the people knew, for every Amer
lean in Washington over thirty-two
years of age had been born the subject
Of king, and the new order of things
had not given birth to new ideas of
how to manifest rejoicing. Moreover,
If the method chosen seems to some to
have been an imitation Of monarchical
customs, they should reflect in exten-
uation that 1t is an instinct Of man
coequal with his feeling the sensation
Of pleasure to show his joy by dancing.
So an official ball closed the day of
Madison's Inauguration and has closed
the Inauguration day of every presi-
dent who has succeeded him.-Gail-
lard Hunt In Century.
