easily offset by the opponents of the UNI
breIla shed type.
1t is always to be borne IN mind that
the train shed of great terminal Is not
to be regarded as a lettering place or wait
ing room. The platforms are merely for
convenience of entrance to and exit from
the cars. The average passenger does not
remain on them for more than a minute

weather for the rain or the snow TO be-

during the brief interval of transit from the
waiting room to the train or vice versa.
In this city. however, the chance of such
a storm as to sweep the platforms under
the edges of the umbrellas is comparatively
remote. There can be no doubt of the adj
vantage of having a light, well-ventilated
platform equipment to replace the dark
and ill-smelling train shed of the typical
large terminal of today
1t is urged by the representatives of the
railroads that the old style of train shed
will result in the discoloration of the sta
ton building. This is not easy of under
standing 1t may be that the wall of the
building facing the tracks might be more
seriously affected by the smoke when con-
fined within large tunnel shed than when
permitted to escape between the umbrellas.
But that smoke would nevertheless remain
a menace to the fair surface of the granite
structure and 1t is possible that it would
be more serious a nuisance when flowing
constantly upward from the tracks than
when partly confined TO the large shed.
This question of smoke should be separate

emissions is a very serious one and many
citizens hope that the day will come when

an excellent opportunity for a reform In

Retirement of Life Savers.

Readers of the newspapers are thoroughly
familiar with the daring, self-sacrificing
and skillful work OF the life-saving crews,
who at this time OF the year are kept busy
rescuing people from stranded ships and
saving property. These men have won high
praise from all the world. They have de-
veloped a state of life-guard efficiency sec
ond to none and the value of their services
is acknowledged by the shipowners of all
countries. Yet they have thus far been I'M
able to obtain from their own lawmakers
a simple measure of justice, in the form of
a retirement statute. Such bill is now
pending before the Senate, with a unani-
nous report from the committee on COM
merce In favor of it's passage, and the
friends of the service are hopeful that at
this session the life-savlng crews will at
last be put on a proper basis of treatment
by the government.
The passage of the retirement bill Is
especially urged by the superintendent Of
the service and by the committee on COM
merce, not as measure Of justice to the
brave fellows who risk their lives for the
sake of others. They call for the enact
ment on the less sentimental ground of ne
cessity. The fact, as shown by the official
records is that it is becoming next to i'm
possible TO maintain the service on the
proper plane of efficiency because OF the
unattractiveness of the conditions Sober,
strong, skillful men will not risk their lives
for the small pay offered. or, If they join
the service, they will not remain long. be-
cause 1t offers no prospect of fair treatment
by the government after injuries are re-
ceived or after the years have robbed a
man of his strength and spirit In short
the life-saving service is today being main
tanned with great difficulty at the high
standard of the past because the right sort
Of men are not attracted to it.
The problem therefore is to make the
service attractive. 1t appeals to a large
class Of men-those who love the sea, those
who love dangerous occupation, those who
love TO be of use in the world II these
men were assured that in their declining
years they would be retired upon a com
petence as reward for faithful services
they would gladly join the ranks and re-
main for season after season. 1t would
be difficult 70 tempt the right sort of men to
leave the service even for higher pay.
Ihis sort of a retirement system is based
upon selfish grounds. It cannot be rejected
as impractically sentimental or as a dan
gerous precedent. The government has al
ready established retirement system for
the revenue marine service, which is mill
tary only In the form of its organization
The Hfe-saving service has had an i'm
portant military status, being used with
good effect during the Spanish-American
war as an adjunct to the navy. But apart
from the question Of precedents, which Is Of
small Importance compared with the real
needs of the case today. this bill should
pass as one of the urgent necessities Of the
government.

Folks Latest Bid.

The presidency Is filing the vision and
confusing the Judgment of Joseph W. Folk
His eyes are fixed on the White House.
The reformer is disappearing In the poll
tician. Evidences of this were hrst seen
last fall, when invitations to speak against
bosses and bosssm were accepted from To-
calities where the bosses were republicans
but declined where the bosses were demo-
Gratis Gov. Folk was all eagerness to
help break down bOssism in Philadelphia
but had not time TO go to New York and
speak against Tammany: went to Cincln-
natl and raised his voice against George
B Cox. but steered clear of Louisville
where a democratic ring was under fire.
The discrimination shown was that of
man who seemed to be thinking more about
the next democratic national convention
than about spreading reform.
Speaking at Topeka, Kan, at a Washing
ton birthday banquet last night Gov.
Folk asked this question:
IF It is right to put a stop to official
grating and place stripes on the official
boOdlers with their thousands gained I'M
lawfully; If It Is right to break up the
grating of the insurance gang, with their
tens of thousands unlawfully and dishon-
estly acquired. is It not right to stamp
out the monopoly grafters. the tariff
grafters, with their millions of iu-gotten
wealth WrunR rom the people Dy means
OF special privileges given them by the
law?'
Does Gov. Folk really see any likeness be-
tween the policy of protection, under which
America. has so marvelously prospered, and
TO which his own party in its legislation of
1894 subscribed. and the policies pursued by
the men who robbed the great life insurance
companies in New York? Does he grade the
McCalls. the McCurdys, the Alexanders. the
Hydes and the Hamiltons, with the Clays,
the Blaines, the McKinleys and the Ding
leys? Does he think 1t as important to pub
lie morals and fair dealing to inaugurate
free trade I'm this country as to cleanse the
life insurance business of the foulness dis
closed by the Armstrong committee? Or is
Gov. Folk bidding for delegates to the next
democratic national convention on revival
OF the tariff issue, and putting his figures
high in order TO attract attention?
In either case an affirmative answer dis
credits the Missouri executive. For If his
views Of graft and grafters are as cloudy as
his proposition on its face discloses he is
not the man for the White House; and If he
is simply playing politics with a subject
which in it's insurance bearing is wholly de-
void of politics he is not the man for the
national leadership Of a party whose blum
ders OF recent years have been so great
that 1t must choose with great care and

The Border State Republicans.

It received. 1t had for its subject the
growth of republicanism in the border

viewed by the republicans OF the north
and east The note or querulousness was
not sounded. Mr.. Yerkes pitched his re-
marks in key creditable to himself and
appreciative Of his company and The oc-
cason. He asserted nothing, but presented
his facts IN capital order. and argued from
them in manner at once direct and dig
nihed.
Sentiment in the three states Of Mary
land, Missouri and Kentucky has under
gone a remarkable change. For years and
years they were democratic strongholds.
Campaign succeeded campaign without
showing any diminution of democratic ma
joritles. The managers of that party took
everything for granted there. and bestowed
their attentions upon other localities In
1895, however both Maryland and Ken
lucky swung away from the democracy.
Maryland repeated the performance in 1900.
and came within an ace of doing so again
in 1904, while Missouri two years ago gave
Mr.. Roosevelt q majority almost as large
