In connection with to-day's hearing at the
City Hall on the theatre ticket speculator ques-
ton, It may be of interest to recall that down
in Buenos Ayres they have particularly eff
fective way of getting rid of the extortionate
nuisance. They impose a heavy fine upon
every theatre before the doors Of which specu-
lators are detected plying their trade. That may
be a little hard on honest managers, but 1t is
certainly a jolly good way Of getting square
with those who are "in cahoots" with the side
walk pirates.

The request of DR.. f. H Porter, State Health
Commissioner, that the Legislature greatly in
crease the appropriation for inspection of ice
fields should be acceded to ungrudgingly.
While New York City gave its Health Depart
ment last year nearly and one-half million
dollars. the State Health Department received
only $4,000 for the period. Out Of this
latter sum only insignificant amount could
be used for ice inspection. While It Is true that
the larger cities of New York State have some
sort of ice inspection, the numerous lesser COM
muntles are wholly without means of adequate
protection. Indeed, so far as adequate protec-
ton Is concerned, 1t is doubtful whether even
the larger municipalities guard their cti-
zens from filthy and infectious ice as they
should be guarded. Desuitory excursions to Ice
fields and meteorological examination Of the
water Of melted ice are worth something to be
sure, yet the opportunities under such sys-
tenn of inspection for poisoning a town are far
too great.

To this table it seems likely that we shall
have to add for 1907 some 100000 popular
votes and only forty-three members elected.
The Clerical Centre appears to have main

which is not in the least surprising, seeing that
it is distinctively religious party and that
membership in the Church of Rome does not
huctuate as does that in purely secular political
parties The practical impossibility of Its
forming a coalition with any other party which
would give 1t control of the Reichstag will,
however, naturally operate as restraining and
