whelming, vicious beyond conception.
When it had swept over him HUGHES still
stood there, very serious, somewhat pale
and very grim. Then IL was that HEARST

grave, unimaginative lawyer, this man
without temper in his bearing, without
heat in his speech, imperturbable and
dispassionate, this man began to ask
questions. And the first day was the
beginning OF the end; the lewd and
bawdy masquerade became a rout; the
fires under the Hearst caldrons paled,

a vast and preposterous stencil.

Politics and journalism.

To THE EDITOR OF TIE SUN-Sir: Many
discussions have been heard concerning the
recent campaign in New York State which
had a bearing on the ethics OF politics and
journalism in their relation to the voters.
These discussions. perhaps. will be best set
forth in an interview with one who has taken
part in many OF them during the campaign.
He said:
Most newspaper editors and most DO
litical writer's are fully aware that in the
Gubernatorial fight in the Empire State many
politicians from the stump uttered downright
falsehoods. The politicians knew that they
were uttering falsehoods. They were not at all
carried away by the enthusiasm OF the moment.
and neither were they blinded to the utter
falsity of the statements which they hurled at
their audiences. Yet the newspapers. whose
editors and political writer's knew that these
orators were telling falsehoods. printed the
speeches of these men. falsehoods and all. or
course the falsehoods we're pointed out in the
editorial columns of many Of the newspapers.
but the question which has been frequently
discussed during the campaign and around
which there have been many heated argu-
ments was this:
is il right. is il proper, is IL entirely in
accord with the methods Of fair journalism
TO print the speeches OF political orators who
are distressing liars, wretched takers, and
then explain these utterances by editorial
comments? Is not a wrong done to the voter
first by the political orator who is a liar and
a faker. and secondly by the newspapers which
print his false statements and his faxed
assertions? Or do not the lies OF the political
orator which, in the interest OF disinterested
journalism, are printed in the newspapers.
carry with them their own condemnation with
resultant disaster?
This question lie a very grave one, but 1
don't suppose it was any graver in the recent
campaign in this State than IL has been since
politics became the great game of civilized
nations. You could have heard all sorts Of
opinions expressed as 20 the effect OF lies and
faxed statements uttered by the political
orators on the stump. without doubt they
Influenced many votes. without doubt the
newspapers from an editorial standpoint did
very much to call the liars and takers to ac-
count by giving a reasonable and truthful
explanation OF many Of the political speeches.
Still. there were many who. while agreeing
that falsity and fake usually result in po-
litical disaster. did not believe that the news
papers should print in the news columns the
falsehoods of political orators or their faxed
explanations of a situation" s. J. T.

The New Football.

A football expert pronounces the game
under the new rules less dangerous than
the old game, but it may be doubted
whether the casualty list bears him out.
II is true that the required space, or
neutral zone, between the opposing lines
when the ball is put into play keeps the
sluggers and the jiu-jitsu men 80 far
apart that the old tricks to put q man
out of the game" are not feasible, or may
be detected by a sharp eyed umpire.
Brute force in advancing the hall when
ten yards must be gained no longer
pays unless the other side IL physically
inferior, so the danger Of Gripping from
the impact Of offence and defence is
greatly reduced.
When the new rules were framed it
was objected by partisans Of the beef
and Drawn football that running through
an open field would be attended with
grievous casualties which would bring
the American college game into worse
repute than ever. 1t may be said that
the strain Of contest is appreciably less,
but broken legs and dislocated shoulders
figure rather prominently in the hospital
list this season, because there il more
tackling Of players running at a high
rate of speed. In mass plays there are
fewer men hurt.
On the whole, it may be said that foot
ball is as dangerous and fascinating as
and continues to be q mans and
not a callow boys game. No rules
would make it absolutely safe. But
dirty play has been almost eliminated,
and as a spectacle the game has I'M
proved vastly. In its scoring feature it
bids fair to become almost as uncertain
as baseball.

Campaign statement.

To THE EDIroR OF The suN-Sr: In a
speech delivered In New Jersey some weeks
ago Senator La Toilette Ia quoted in the news
papers as stating that certain people in the
State OF Wisconsin mortgaged their homes
to carry on the campaign OF reform.
As a present taxpayer and former resident
OF Wisconsin. and at present reasonably con-
versant with conditions there. l challenge this
statement, In short. 1t Is a lie.
II any one In Wisconsin mortgaged his
home to support a political campaign on
principle. entirely aside from any personal
gain or glory. he should stand up. and ]
will head a subscription list with $1,000 to
reimburse him.
In the State of Wisconsin there has been
no past nor Is there a present necessity for
any one to mortgage a home to raise funds
to maintain principle. for the simple reason
that In twenty years there has not been a
vital principle at stake.

The Sorrow OF Glorious John.

The Hon. JOHN FAIRFIELD DRYDEN,
Newark's great philanthropist, is said to
be saddened by the perversity of Essex
county, which went" Democratic in
stead Of going Drydenite. Some other
parts Of the Jerseys must share the
blame. Let US be frank, and say the
crime. For it is nothing less to compel
a man and Senator like Glorious JOHN
to fight for reelection. Il is viperous
ingratitude. II Is a stolid incapacity to
appreciate a blessing and a boon. To be
sure, the sons of BELIAL seem to have
missed their t~raitorous purpose. True
goodness o by a squeak, unless some
hellish plot should yet be Matched and
the Peoples JOHN be betrayed and de-
feated by false Republicans. It is un-
likely, however, that any Republican in
the Jersey Legislature will dare to vote
for any other candidate than the high
souled, high salarIed DRYDEN, revered
for his long Public Service, beloved for
his unselfsh labors in stimulating thrift
among -the poorer classes"
In the presence Of this grief-for what
virtuous heart Is not wrung by the spec
tacle OF injustice to this benefactor Of
the lowly9--let us not blink the facts.
It wa not the Bishops law that stirred
Essex and Hudson against the Grand
Old Man. The less rum, the more money
saved; and who in Jersey or elsewhere
but under the inspiration or for
the benefit OF that sanity soul? No; it
was not tho Bishops law. It was not
the malice Of Colbyism. We are almost
ashamed to speak the fatal truth, but
Mr.. DRYDEN himself, more expert in
~fcathering his nest than feathering ar
rows. winged the all but deadly dart.
Instead of being his own platform, OF
pointing to himself with pride, OF asking
the toiling millions to vote, even al they
toll, for him. he lugged In Mr.. ROOSEVELT

The Phantasm Of Hearst.

This is probably not the end Of HEARST
AZ a public nuisance, but it may be
the end Of him a. a national menace
and a serious political force. BRYAN
showed that he could survive defeat,
and even survive a certain neglect.
But BRYAN never left a campaign with
damning charges of dishonor and shame
i~rretrievably to blacken his name. Mr..
HUGHES has pilloried HEARST as a
gross impostor. His charges have been
made soberIy and dispassionately upon
the public platform. No reply has been
made. 1t is true that Mr.. HUGHES was
assailed with deliberate falsehood and
vulgar abuse, but there has been no
reply, no refutation.
HEARST, s far as the general public
was concerned, did not go into the
campaign AZ a gross impostor. Far
from IL. Had the election been held at
the time Of nomination HEARST would
HUGHES, HIGGINS or BLACK or any OF her
candidate that the Republicans would
or could have nominated. HUGHES,
given the opportunity Of a campaign,
was the only mar that could defeat
HEARST. HUGHES was the only man
who could take the fictitious HEARST,
strip of his false raiment, tear away his
mask and exhibit the real HEARST in
all his ~deplorable and revolving nudity.
This public service he performed piece
meal, day by day, with painstaking and
logical calmness. No one else could
have done il. Imagine HIGGINS attempt
ing Il; imagine BLACK approaching the
task. No, clearly HUGHES was the man
Of all men for the occasion. the Nemesis
that was wanted; and for completeness
and symmetry his job should be the

excellent man, but not in the least like
Mr.. DRYDEN. As for the tariff, it was
made in heaven, as everybody knows.
Mr.. DRYDEN Is more sacrosanCt, more
august than that. He was made for
heaven. He has long been introducing
little sections and glimpses Of it into
humble homes. What's ROOSEVELT or
the tariff to New Jersey so long as she
has DRYDEN, whose face illumines a
hundred magazines, whose name is be-
loved wherever there is an undertaken?
Fort the first time in his life Mr.. DRYDEN
was untrue to himself, forgot himself.
He did not make himself the axle and
linchpin Of the campaign, the supreme
moral issue. He did not ask New Jersey
to think Of the illimitable void the United
States Senate would be without him.
And New Jersey fondly regards him as
a permanent, immortal institution, a
cross between a Sunday school and a
savings bank. She did not see the dam
ger. Only on Wednesday morning did
she appreciate the precipice Of shame
and grief down which she almost threw
herself.
Saved by the skin Of his teeth! Only
a narrow margin for the Knight of the
Public Service, for the inventor Of thrift,
for the champion of the poor and Federal
life insurance! There will be tears and
breaking hearts for this from Saddle
River to Bivalve, and from Wallpack
Centre to Fishing Creek. Not all the
beer in wettest Hoboken can wash New
JERSEYS shame away.

Trade and Industrial Notes From India.

Special Agent Charles N. Pepper OF the Bureau
of Manufactures writes from Bombay that there
is a permanent and reliable market there for small
FORCES. lathes, drilling. planning, punching. shearing
and similar tools that can be operated by hand or
foot. Pumps and pumping machinery are also
in demand. Hand pumps omman the largest
sale, led by n Arm in Salem. Ohio. A limited num-
Der OF steam pumps can also be sold. Windmills
have a good sale. There Is an opening for small
hand printing presses for newspaper work. At
Lahore, for instance. there are fifteen daily papers.
Americans control the excellent market for type
writing machines. The demand is constant. Cash
registers are slow sale. but the demand for sewing
machines is steady. Last fiscal year Great Britain
