On this question of reversal those who
first voted yes will now vote no, and
those who first voted no will now vote
yes.
''lf the electors in any district shall
vote to reverse former ballot to ere
ate anti-saloon territory so making
said district to be again saloon territory
then this said district does not become
territory without law. But all former
resolutions and ordinances providing for
the restriction, regulation or prohibi-
ton of the liquor traffic in said territory
become at once in force as the law.
"a vote on this question in either
form shall be a bar to any further vote
on the question until after the lapse Of
twcnty-threc months. No liquor can be
sold in any quantity whatsoever, nor
can any license be given. within the
limits Of anti-saloon territory.
Shifts and devices to evade the law
shall be counted as violations of the law
and he duo punishment must follow
However man may use liquor in his
own home and serve IL TO his guests mt
his own pleasure even though he lives
in anti-saloon territory.
THE improved section introduced in
TO the Drake bill from the Kelly bill
relates to the sale Of liquor by drug
gists and limits such sale TO be made by
regular licensed pharmacist. for ex-
elusivcly known medical purposes. upon
written prescription signed and dated
in good faith by duly licensed physi-
elan In active practice the said pre-
seription to be used but once.

1t is good to have a man who
has seen much of life paraphrase
the wisdom Of the ages in terms
OF his own observation and ex-
perience. The veteran banker,
Henry Clews, did this thing in
his talk to the boys clubs of
the Educational Alliance. In
one meaty sentence be com
pressed a whole system of man
ners and ethics:
Avoid a man who, when he
drinks. habitually drinks alone;
who talks religion downtown in
connection with his daily bust
ness affairs; who deceives his
wife and boasts of it to Others;
VINO partakes of hospitality
and talks behind his entertain.

who borrows money from a
friend and then blackguards

with no apparent intention of
paying, or who boasts of the
superiority OF his family

"COHPROn[SES."

Announcement is made respectable, if not
conclusive, authority that the new Democratic
administration in Jersey City will in one inn
portant respect pursue an entirely different pol
icy from that of its Republican predecessor. In
corporations which form conspicuous
factor in that municipality and which are often
ar odds and in litigation with the city govern
ment it will, we are told, be conciliatory and
will aim at settling differences by compromise
That undoubtedly will be very different from
the Republican policy of some years past which
has been pretty decidedly uncompromising.
Whether it will be a change for the better is n
question which time will answer.
The obvious danger of such 4 course is, to be
seen in the door which it opens to all sorts of
corrupt deals" or at least to the suspicion of
them. If some powerful corporation enjoys
Il measure of immulaty in violating the law or
gets its tax levy reduced by 80 per cent through
a compromise" men will inevitably ask what
was the quid pro quo. Also. other corporations
which have not enjoyed such favors, but have
pay their taxes in full, will want to know the
WHY and wherefore of it and will consider
themselves hardly trea.ed-though with less
reason than might appear upon the surface.
1t is scarcely conceivable that policy of conf
promise could be pursued without inequalities
and abuses
No just and rational person wants TO see cor
there is a general aud strong feeling against
New-York tribune., 1907-12-23
As TO THE MEN OF OLD.

casual remark ny a clergyman the other day
has set many persons to discussing the question
whether washington or Lincoln would be CON-
petent to fill the place Of President satisfac-
toriIy at this time. and the opinion is here and
there quite freely and quite smartly expressed
that neither would. Transplanted into these
times. it is argued, either would be an old fogy
in hustiing age, a parochiai or provincial
statesman in an imperial realm. Precisely so il
might with equal plausibility be argued that
Beethoven or Mozart would be incapable OF con-
ducting a modern orchestra containing instru-
menfs which he knew not of, that Faraday
would he lost and helpless in modern physical
laboratory and that Franklin would scarcely be
able to serve as printers devil in a twentieth
century publishing house. All Of which may in
8 certain CONSTRUCTED liberalism be quite true,
But all of which in spirit and in rational applica-
ton is utterly absurd.
The fallacy consists in the uDtenable and
wholly unreasonable supposition that those
great men Of the past would still be men Of the
past if they were translated into our OWN times.
OF course, they would not be. The genius OF
Beethoven or Mozart born into the twentieth
century .rouId he much master Of the re-
sources cf the more elaborate orchestra Of to-
day as OF the primitive orchestra of years ago.
The mind Of Faraday would comprehend and
control the expanded physical science of to-day
as we'll as it did the rudimentary science of
century ago franklin would be as familiar
with and as competent to direct the linotype
and perfectng press of to-day as the stick
and case and hand press of the eighteenth
century. So the genius of Washington or Lin
coin would be addressed TO the problems Of
statecraft Of our day just as authoritatVely and
Just tTiunphantly as to those of half a cen
tury or a century and quarter ago.
That is of the characteristics of true
genius that il is conceivably susceptible Of sue
cessful application in any land and age, and it
is of the greatest of mistakes and of mis-
judgments to hold otherwise and 10 imagine that
the work of genius intended solely for the
circumstance Of its origin and immediate per-
formance. The compositions of Beethoven lend
themselves perfectly to the expanded require
ments and capabilities of the modern orchestra.
The dramas of Shakespeare well suited
TO the elaborately equipped stage Of our time as
they to the meagre furnishings of the
Elzabethan age. The craftsmanship Ola Wash
ington a Lincoln, nationally interpreted and
regarded not as dead and dry but a living
thing, is pert to the public needs of to-
day as TO those o. generations ago. The men
of old transplanted to times would bring to
present tasks the same genius, integrity, indus
try and devotion that they gave TO the tasks OF
they would achieve similarly admirable results.
