MURPHY's POSITION.
1t Is Said He VIII Not Let Hearst Be
the NoIninee.

NEW YORK, Sept. 21-CharIes F.
Murphy, 1t is reported on the best of
authority, has decided that William
Randolph Hearst cannot be the nominee
OF the Buffalo convention and he is de-
termined to drop the Independence
League man from consideration. Muir
phys friends want him to make state-
ment to- the public announcing that
Hearst cannot hope for the support of
Tammany Hall, but the leader has not
made up his mind on that point.
Murphy said several times today that
he would not express his preference un-
til after the Tammany caucus at Buffa-
10 next Monday night. According to
those who have been assured that he
has decided to eliminate Hearst from
the situation so far as Tammany is con-
cerned, he takes the view expressed by
Norman f. Mack. He believes that
Hearst, having accepted the nomination
of the independence League. cannot
consistently run for Governor on a
Democratic ticket.
Murphy has sought advice on this
point from old war horses in the party.
They have told him that Hearst, by
forming party Of his own and publicly
announcing that he stands on the plat
form of that party, has read himself
out of the Democratic party.
There are plenty of Democrats in
the State who are good men and would
make good Governors" Murphy was
told. ITO go outside of our party for
a candidate, simply because he has
some instructed delegates from up
State counties, where Democrats are
scarcer than wool on a Mexican dog,
would be to render the Democracy of
New York ridiculous and submit II to
the contempt of the people,.

Gillett Is Attacked for His
Attitude I owardU UJnionL Labor
Effort to Secure the Endorsement of Bell

friends of labor and punish It's enemies.
Also, according to the suggestion of
Gompers, it was suggested to form a
Union Labor party for the State. The
executive committee appointed sub
committee to draw up resolution, in
accordance with this sentiment, de-
nouncing Gillett, indorsing Bell, and
providing for the organization of a
State Union Labor party, not later than
December 81 Of this year.
This resolution was long and went
into many details concerning the rea-
sons why Bell should be indorsed. What
is believed to have been direct slap
at Ruef and Herrin was provision to
prevent any men not carrying union
card from having anything to say in
the proposed new labor party.
AS soon as the resolution was read
it was evident that it would not pass
as a whole, and thus 1t was decided to
vote on each provision separately. In
the midst of the oratory for and against
Bells Endorsement, 1t was discovered
that 1t was almost midnight, and the
larger number of delegates started for
the door to catch cars to their homes.
The political enthusiasts objected to
this action, and it was suggested that
the doors be locked until the entire
resolution should be disposed Of The
matter was finally compromised by
agreeing to make the resolution indors-
ing Bell and the plan of organization
a special order of business for o'clock
next Friday night.

The Future Novel.

1T is almost futile to speculate the novel of
the future However, as the novel Of today differs
essentially from those written ages ago. it is safe to
predict that those of the immediate future will be
unlike those Of today. Even at the present time a
change is noticeable There is tendency to shorten
the Introductory chapters. These introductories
often prove bore to readers, they generally
irrelevant. By eliminating this CUSTOM which we
have come to accept necessary fault, step
toward higher ideals will have been made
William Dean Howells is of the opinion that
these ntroductories should be abbreviated as much
possible; for, a rule, they only postpone the
readers pleasure. Most readers, however, seldom
read these inconsequentialities, matter by whom
the book may be written. They turn these pages
over impatently, and emit sigh of relief when they
finally reach the real story OF course authors will
always differ as to the proprety of writing them,
and few will insist that they are vital part Of
good literature
It may be highly edifying to the reader to know
that the manor house ancient one; that it
stood on hillside overlooking beautiful valley;
that the stairway old and creaked frightfully;
and that the sum- on this Hateful morning, unblush
ingly arose. etc., etc. This grandiloquent style of
Introductory is not countenanced by all writer's.
They insist that it is traditional fetish and that
the novel writer's of the future will be careful and
not offend their readers by embodying such fowery
word-pictures in their books.
Some persons like to have their novel garnished
with all the essentials that tradition has encountered
it. If contained no poetcal reference as to how
the wind sighed fretfuly it wended it's way around
the gabe they would not read it. After all has been
said is safe to say that the novel of the future will
be better liked than any of its predecessors.

In COMMENTING on Mrs Booths action in dis

"A certain number Of good citizens of Flushing
will read with feeling of pleasure that Hope Hall

shortly be but memory, that the work of Maud Bal

than the first will feel tinge of regret they

corning this noble
considering the subject fairly, Flushing could
dispense with quite percentage of her citizens with
more of benefit to herself than she will derive from
the departure of the Hope Hall residents In the less
than six and half years that Hope Hall estab
lished, more than two thousand eight hundred have
dweIt under its roof Some halfdozen Of them during
those years have been charged with wrongdong and
two, if we mistake not-possibly three-have been
convicted. Seventy per cent Of the number are
positively known to have become good citizens hon.
est and upright men.
During all these years, with this continuous
passing of men, every one of whom have committed
crime and paid the penalty there have been, so far
as is known, drunken rows, no knife pistol
fights, no summoning Of the police to quell midnight
disturbances with free and generous of clubs,
such as the Times has been called upon often to
chronicleas having occurred in other portions of the
town Of Flushing, and among other people who have
not as yet at least, been convicted of crime There
are dives and dens and places Of vice in Flushing
which could have much more readily been spared
than can Hope Hail.
"Mrs. Booth followed the Masters command,
and went out in the highways and byways of sin,
and gathered poor creatures in, and made of
them. The places referred to reach their tentacles
into respectable homes and gathered men and wom-

bless Mrs. Booth and her work, and may she elong

spark of manhood which yet remains in them into
bright and living fame, and make them again men
