TO CONNECT THE BRIDGES.

In reply to the Rapid Transit Commissions
inquiry. the management of the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit Company announces that it will gladly
accept a five years lease of the proposed elevat-
ed railroad loop between the bridges. Controller
Grout, who was sure the company would refuse
such an Offer is thus exposed once more as
fallible prophet; but let that pass. The impor
tant thing is that the prospect of securing at an
early day relief from the wretched conditions
prevailing at the Manhattan terminal Of the
Brooklyn Bridge, and at the same time of
greatly increasing the usefulness Of the Will
iamsburg Bridge, has been much improved. The
Rapid Transit Commission passed a favorable
judgment on the project last week, and if some
public officials are still hostile or hestating
they are likely to find that they cannot interpose
an effective veto.
Those who have followed the discussion must
have remarked quick growth of public opinion
in support Of the plan for an elevated railroad
connection between the bridges Objections
are still made, but the opposition rapidly dimin-
ished on due consideration Of certain facts to
which The Tribune invited attention and which
afterward Mr. Orr also effectively presented
We have been careful to acknowledge the sound
ness Of the argument against any extension of
the elevated railroad system which is not really
essential to the general interests of the commu-
nifty; but it has seemed clear that, If the evils
Brooklyn Bridge terminal are actually as op-
pressive and dangerous everybody declares
them to be, the only practicable means of STOP
ping them ought to be adopted. Fortunately. II
has been shown that the purpose can be served
by building an elevated road through Baxter-st
instead of past the fine structures in Centre-st,
and consequently that the scheme will involve
comparatively little sacrifice. Now that the cor
poration Immediately concerned has agreed to q
short lease, leaving open the question of some
other arrangement after five years, it is to be
hoped that a beginning Of the necessary work
Will be promptly authorized
AS we have already pointed out, IL was
easy to say that the Brooklyn Rapid Transit
Company had sinned past forgiveness, was en-
Titled to no consideration and should be bluntIv
told that II 1t did not choose to operate sllb-
way between the bridges the privilege would be
bestowed elsewhere But on second thought
sensible citizens perceived that a company which
controlled an immense territory in BROOKLYN
could not be excluded from the bridges without
great injury to a multitude of persons. that II
was silly TO demand its cooperation in a sub
way scheme, tnasmuch as its cars would not be
permitted to run underground and that on the
Whole, 1t would be wise to connect the bridges
IN such manner as to solve a harassing nroh-
lem instead of calling into existence new and
worse conditions

Civil Service reform has more generally been
the interest of thoughtful leaders Of society
than of the great masses An interesting feat
ure of the work of the Woman's Auxiliary OF

Controller Grout says he has received let
ters urging the acquisition by the city Of the
ferry lines between Manhattan and Brooklyn,
and their operation for the benefit of the public
without charge. He declares that the free
movement Of the ferries between the two COM
munities would relieve the pressure on the
Brooklyn Bridge and prove in every way bene-
fetal. He does not claim the credit Of orig
mating the scheme, but praises his correspond
ents. Before long the city government will own
the vessels which are to ply between the south
ern part of Manhattan Island and the Borough
of Richmond and we may obtain new light on
ferry management.

pity that it should be spoiled by the sentence near
the close. mo man In his senses would wish To see
Santo Domingo annexed to the United States
This is a sweeping assertion which is unworthy
OF a great mind. If Porto Rico has been bapaetad
by annexation there are many men in this country

EXCELLENCE OF INAUGURAL ADDRESS

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir; Let mo call the attention OF your readers %
ehe remarkable simplicity OF President Rooseyelts
inaugural with fewer than thousand words
IN the address than seven hundred ne ,nasa
are monosyhables and fewer than one hundred
words have more than two syllables The longest
word is responsibilities" and there are only thirty
hve words OF four or five syllables in the entire
speech
Professor Carpenter OF Columbia University
lays down this rule In his Elements OF RHETORIC;
Unless Tor very good reasons. do not allow a SEN
telce 10 exceed thirty words" Not only In his in
augural address, but also last year his speech OF
aoceptanee, which was three times as long MT
roosevelt Kept his average sentence length below
thirty words. OF which over twenty monosylla-
pies Judge Parkers average sentence was nearly
ntty words as revealed in his speech OF acceptance
OF four thousand words
The dominant note OF the address IS found IN its
longest word responsi bility. and President Roose-
Welt constantly fixes this upon 'us" Our responsi-
bility for our country to the world Is the key TO
our Presidents address and character.

newspaper vs. Magazine
as Advertising Medium.


AT the convention of the Inte:-
national Advertising Association at
ST. Louis several weeks ago, Thomas
Balmer. of the Butterick Publishing
COMPANY. made the statement before
the convention that magazine adver-
Using was the only real profitable ad-
vertising to the advertiser. He stated
further that all small advertisers, the
ten and twelve line advertisers. should
be barred. Gerald Pierce. BUSINESS
manager of the Chicago Record Herald.
replied TO Mr. Balmer the following
day, saying in part:
"Mr. Balmer made the statement
Yesterday that he would kill in infancy
every five to twelve-line advertiser;
and he got it up to fourteen, be-
Iieve: said the small advertiser should
not exist. That rather than be small
advertiser, he had better not be an ad-
vertiser at all.
He. therefore. declared for the
principle that all men must start al
the top. i
why, how ridiculous. rThe most ex-
pert men l employ on the Record
Herald in Chicago are the men who
induce the small advertiser to- spend
his money. and try 10 help him spend
it successfully.
Il would rather have twenty small
local advertisers than two of the big
gest department stores in Chicago in
my paper. That kind of thing yibrates
and keeps alive the business Interest.
1t tells the story of the town-adver-
Using does. | claim even though l
am disputed by the managing editor,
that the advertising is the most i'm
portant part of a paper: it is read
more. The pople who advertise are
the ones / am trying to cultivate;
trying to make them successful ad-
vertjsers, and some day they will be
big advertisers. Balmer made the
statement am only here to respond
to Mr.. Balmer; | am not making a
speech, because / can't do it, but this
man riled me very much yesterday.
Why. he made the statement yester-
day that so per cent of the advertisers
failed. purely because they were small
advertisers.
Now think of it, Bradstreet and
Dun tell us that 80 per cent Of the
business world fails; so at least the
small advertiser is 35 per cent above
the average.
He said that 80 per cent of the
daily newspaper advertising solicitors

ence extends over twelve years, and
during that time out of my Office have
graduated three advertising managers
OF metropolitan papers, four success
full magazine representatives and a
number of magazine employees in the
advertising field.
The daily newspaper prints in one
week more advertising than any five
magazines print in a year. 1t prints
five times as many advertisements as
any one magazine prints in five years
it does that in one Sunday edition.
Then he asks why we have TO
have solicitors. We have 5000 adyer-
tisements in one Sunday paper; a
good many Of them have TO be looked
after; matter must be secured and
letters written. and lots 'of times copy
must be prepared for the advertising
in the daily newspaper.
Now, as to the daily newspaper.
1t chronicles the daily events of the
world; it represents the heartthrobs
want your notices to appear? Take
a successful business coup-a success
full transaction of any kind? Where
do you expect to find the great events
chronicled of your lives? Birth, mar
riage, death? Where do you try to
find all that is of human interest?
Where do you look for that? Where
is the advertising to be found that
should interest the man who needs
the things that you are most vitality
interested in selling?
This gentleman spoke about street
car advertising. Well, as / say, we
can excuse him because he does not
know. He talks about the rider in a
stretcher being impressed with an ad.
If he had not mentioned any of these
ads, | could have called upon you, and
don't believe-even though you are
advertising men-that you would re-
member One-quarter of the signs in a
street car. Men can not carry them
away with them; they do not fold them
up; they lose them as soon as they
leave the car-if they ever see them.
But when they take their daily
paper in the morning they read some
thing that is of interest to them. The
advertisement is there and they have
time to read it and digest it, and they
have time to find out where the place
is TO which they can go and purchase,
and they become the purchasers in
one day, instead of having to ride a
year in the street car in order to have
an ad. impressed upon their minds.
