WHEN THE PEOPLE SPEAK

" HERE are bosses and bosses,
and Governor Hughes, OF New
York, is one whom the people
delight to honor, simply because he is
a political master in the service OF the
people. That is where his mastership
comes from-the people. When Mr..
Hughes was=elected Governor, he was
"a novice in the game OF politics, He
had held no public Office and had
taken little or no part in political con
tests He was wholly unacquainted
with the men and methods at Albany
and the old-time politicians expected
to find him an easy thing" The Leg
islature was in avowed and open hos
tility and expressed its determination
to do him up" But when that Legis-
lature had adjourned, it was found that
only three out OF fourteen measures
advocated by Governor Hughes had
failed of passage. No Legislature OF
the Empire State in forty years had
done so much for the people as this
one which adjourned last month. But
it was done only after a dramatic
struggle, in which the Governor won
against the politicians, not by super
ior craft or the playing of politics, but
by direct and open appeal to the
people. And herein lies the interest
and lesson of the struggle, for the peo-
pie of every State 1t was simply a
case in which the people recognize
the sincerity and trustworthiness OF
their Chief Executive, and came to his
support. The uprising of public indig-
nation from one end of the State to
the other got on the nerves of the
leaders and made them vince. They
might face one man in political fight,
but they could not face one MAN
with the whole indignant popuace

politician, you say? Aye, but quite as
fine lesson for the people themselves.

certain manner, the power they WELD

LESSON TAUGHT BY BRAZIL.
Splendid Avenue in Rio de Janeiro
Cut Through the SIums,


Cut Through the SIums.
The most wonderful feature of Rio
de Janeiro is the Avenlda Central.
Imagine, If you can, city, Chicago,
for Instance, awakening to the realiza-
tion that there are ugliness, dirt and
disease in its midst; that its streets
are ill-paved, unwhOlesome and unequal
to the traffic. Imagine Chicago deter
mined to change all this by drawing
straight line through her slums, sGy
from the river at Madison street to the
corner of Twelfth and Halsted streets,
with other straight lines parallel and
at right angles through other centers
Of slumdom.
And imagine Chicago, after pulling
down brick and stone, wood and plas-
ter, erecting on these straight lines
broad, well-paved, well-lighted avenues,
faced on either side by palaces, shops
cafes, clubs and business houes, all
newly built according to one harmoni-
GUS scheme, so that air and sunshine
enter where they were before unknown,
and so that it becomes a pleasure to-
walk where hitherto confusion and dis
comfort were unavoidable.
This Is what Rio did. The Avenida
was cut literally through the heart Of
the city.
From March 8, 1904, when the first
house was unroofed, until the opening
of the Avenida for public use, Nov. 15,
l9O5-the Brazilian national holiday of
independence-there were 641 houses
demolished and over 1000 persons scat
tered TO other ana more wholesome
homes. The reactionists who object to
the whole plan say that for a tropical
city the old streets were best; that
these new, broad avenues which bring
sunlight into dark places have also
brought the first cases of sunstroke into
Rio. They fail to realize, of course,
what cleanliness and fresh air signify.
The total cost of the Avenlda may
reach $S0,OOO,OOO, but it will be worth
every cent of it.
OF course, there are slums still In
evidence in Rio. A city of 10000 peo-
pie, one-third of whom are negroes and
many of these Of the lowest, most igno-
rant type, cannot be reformed all at
once. In the lanes behind the hills and
in the districts around the railway
station there are native hives as pic
turesque and as dirty, though not so
crowded, nor so cut off from sunlight
and air. as those at Whitechapel or
East Observation-Disclosures Magazine.

Shirt Protector.

When man buys dress shirt nova
days he can depend on the bosom be-
ing absolutely spotless, since, owing to
new device that has been thought of,
the shirt is protected from the touch
Of soiled fingers that so often were
wont to leave their mark on the fair
surface.
This new style of protection consists
of an envelope OF transparent paper
that is large enough to hold the shirt,
keep it absolutely clean, and yet en-
abling one to see the size numbers
through it. Without adding much to
the cost, the envelope is a great econo-
my to the dealers and makers, since
with its use there is never any cause
for the return of shirts to the factory
that have been soiled in the handling
as there is in the case Of collars and
cuffs.

the sounds varies with the form of the

used for many centuries.
Mexican employers and traders are
complaining of the large number Of OBJ

by the work people. OUT of the 1865

there are so Sundays and 5 bank hoI-
idays, total of 81. If what many Of
the workers now claim is conceded,
there will be II more-a fortnight in
the year-making 50, or 62 fewer than
are claimed by the MexIcans But ex-
cessive holidays are injurious to work
er and employer alike and nuisance
