LIFT LID TO
HURT MCCLELLAN.
Tammany Threatens Revenge OF
Mayor of New York Thru
Reign Of Vice.

New York, Jan. 1.-General Bing-
ham, the new police commissioner, will
have all he can do to keep the city
clean of poolrooms and gambling houses,
for, according to many Tammanyites,
word has been sent out to go ''as far as
you like' in opening resorts, for the
purpose Of doing all that is possible
to make the administration of Mayor
Mcclellan failure.
Tammany, according to these people,
does not intend to be 'tgood'' any
longer. They say they have been
"good' during the past two years, for
Boss Charley Murphy's sake, and have
had some care not to blemish McClel-
Ian 8 administration, but now that Nc
Clellan has refused to recognize the
Tammany leaders for commissioner
ships, they intend to let their followers
90 ahead and do as they please.
During the next two weeks, if the
threats are carried out, more than five
hundred gambling houses and poolrooms
will be Established here. They do not
intend to go to the police for "pro.
tection,'' either. They will defy the
authorities and take their chances of
being raided. Should policemen be de-
tailed in front of the places, they will
| apply to the courts for injunctions.

Continued From First Page.

practical politicians, that the president
is also trying to become the Pooh-Ba
OF the democratic party, indeed it
does prove it if their logic is correct.
The best thing the real admirers Of
the president have to say for him, how
ever, is that in all he is trying to ac-
conAplish he tries, consistently, to be
safe, conservative and careful. TO
Illustrate: He much admires the cam
paign La Toilette has made in Wiscon-
sin, and has been keenly in sympathy
with the elegant fight there put up
against the corruptionists in public
affairs. Yet, while he esteems La Fol
lette 8 motives and is in sympathy with
that picturesque character s efforts to
clean houaee in his state, he has been
known to leplore the Incorporate side
of the Wisconsin reformer, wishing
very much, for the good of his cause,
that the new senator were just CON
| sentative enough to attract to himself
all Of the best strength Of the state.
AS to the charge that the president
is trying to be the great political swash-
buckler of his age, there is no one here
who takes any stock in it unless he is
being hit by the Roosevelt "engine, -
as the practical politicians are. All the
others are wishing the president good
luck in his work, and in the state of
New York, particularly, they say that
if he can rid the republican party of
Ex-Governor Odell he will have won the
righteous esteem and appreciation OF
| all honest men.

LUMBERMEN SPOIL

Unsentimental. l.. 4

names Of the the french fTa c a1s ia 'i in
Maine are being Anglicized and simpi-
fed, SO the original Indian names OF
towns and rivers, lakes and localities
are rapidly becoming corrupted, clipped
about to suit the convenience of a non:
sentimental and an intensely practical
people.
The United States postoffce depart
ment has succeeded in clipping the last
three letters from such names as VALID
boro, which now reads Waldboro, but
it can do little with Indian names. For
thing out Of Mattawamkeag or Passa-
dumkeag,. and Passamaquoddy is still
official, altho the Maine people call it
Quoddy for short.

Abol, and, in fact, IS so called by nearly
everybody on the plea that life is too
short to wander thru all the syllables
that rightly belong to the name of the
stream.
7 Almost any one of the Indian names
is terror to the postal clerks, but there
is one that they particularly abhor
because Of the many ways in which the
people spell it. This is Wytopitlock-
seemingly simple enough, but in every.
day affairs name strangely twisted
and tortured.
Wytopitlock is little postoffce in

attempts at spelling it's name. Here
