Greater Than His Party. "

The worst accusation which the
regular" can hurl at an associate
is this: "He thinks he's greater
than his party" 1t followed Cleve-
land through twelve years of Demo-
cratic leadership. 1t has pursued
Roosevelt from his first election 10
the New York State Legislature, al
the age of twenty-five. It is now
fastening itself on Hughes.
Well, Mr.. Cleveland survived II,
and Mr.. Roosevelt has turned it into
a badge of usefulness and distinc-
ton. Mr.. Hughes is beginning as
though he meant 10 do quite as
well. If there is any regular" in
the Empire State today who hopes
to make capital out of abusing the
new governors independence he VIII
find much to interest him in the
comment from every corner OF the
nation on the latest Hughes APP
pointment.
1t pays to be greater than your
party if you can.

A Time for Action.

One of the most important of
recent disclosures OF local school
conditions twas made az yesterdays
meeting of the Board of Education
as 10 that body's office affairs. In
addition to a lack OF harmony in
all the Office force, and. on the part
of some members, proven disloyalty,
the investigators reported;
The committee finds there is in the
present administration OF the office a
lack OF system as regards the nling OF
papers showing FequIslIlon and dlsJrI-
button OF supplies, so that duplication
OF acquisitions and loss of material can
not be prevented, and IN more than one
instance have been known 20 occur
that there is no assurance from lnspec-
ton and comparison that the quality
OF the supplies distributed through the
schools Is or the same standard as that OF
the samples from which the supplies
were ordered; that there IS no system
by which the board can know at any
OF all times, the amount the condition,
or the value OF the school property FOR
which IL Is responsible TO the public,
and the board Is now without accurate
knowledge on this subject
A year ago, under the old board,
there might have been reason to eN-
pect a few moral observations on
such a state Of affairs, but no action
10 correct them. The course Of the
new board viii now offer a fair
opportunity OF comparing the two
as TO courage and energy.
That any system should long be
administered to permit the duphca-
ton of acquisitions and loss of ma
terial. which ''in more than one in
stance have been known 10 occur, "
or without assurance that its sup
plies conform TO the standards fix
ed, or without satisfactory lnowl-
edge of the property in use, man
ifestly indicts the responsible head
of that administration as either woe
fully incompetent or criminally
negligent.
In this case the condition was in
herited. But the present board is
directly responsible for every days
continuation of it. and the board
will fail to fulfill one of its chief
duties if il does not correct il thor
oughly and Immediately. Webbing
will not door indulgence. Moth
ing but expeditions and resolute
action to put the Office on a bust
ness basis and remove those subor-
dinates who have proven themselves
either false TO their trust or incom-
petent of meeting it viii serve to
save for the board the confidence OF
the people and of Congress.

his former wife the instant he was in

nized him as her former husband. nor
did she recognize him when Dempster
made his remark about their bearing
the same name.
