A straw Vote in Connecticut.

(PrOVidence JournaL)
 straw votes ma show much or little; some of them are interesting even if they are moi valuable and In this class may be put one that was taken at the Danbury, Connecticut fair the other day Three thousand voters were poll ed, with the following results, among others; Bryan voters for Lllley l1S; Taft voters for Robertson, 320, non committal on governor, 524 If these facts have the significance they mean that some democrats intend 10 indorse the republican candidate for governor, perhaps on the ground that he did not recivo square deal in the submarine investigation, while larger number of republicans propose to support his democratic competitor. presumably be- cause they do not approve MT. Lilley g methods at Washington or because they resent the casting aside of the present efficient governor The fact that over 300 hundred voters out of 5000 declined to state their governorship leaningS Is also interesting.

YALE VOTES.

There are several reasons why Yale undergraduates are taking more inter est than usual this year in matters DO litical Not only will the year 1908 see gubernatorial elections settled in thir- ty-three of the states of the union, but lt will decide a keen presidential con test in which the blue of Yale is car ried by as loyal a son of Eli as ever trod, Then, again, aside from all this, there is a general tendency al Yale, which is more and more apparent ev- cry year, to take an active part in poll ties as early as conditions and laws will permit It is to the credit of Yale that 1t is yearly graduating armies ot young men who are eager and anx- ious to take up the great and worthy work of reform politics throughout the country. Those courses in the curricu- lum which treat of civic and political matters are among the most popular in the catalogues,
 This is a creditable tendency It is 1 little wonder that one finds Taft ith- !, ographs In the dormitory windows now and Taft buttons on the lapels sDi l the undergraduates on the campus. Tt 1 Is little wonder that ono finds Yale men organizing Taft and other simi- lar political clubs, organizations form ed to accomplish results really worth while and not flasco institutions such sons ago, which succeeded in hood Winklng the university. ifs namesake and everybody generally, according to common report
 The matter of undergraduate voting in New Haven has long been a politl- cal bone of contention IL Is perfectly obvious that the three thousand odd votes OF the students cannot be allow ed to be cast in this city promiscu- ousy. Should they be- collegiate politi- cal interests in New Haven would be great enough to be one of the most important clements on the voting lists, It is believed that the students would see the necessity for such a move on the part of New Haven vot- CTS to protect themselves against out side and illegitimate political infiu- ence should they stop to think the matter over, It Is, perhaps. to be re- gretted that many of the young men who would make their "maiden" at tempt at the ballot-box here this fall will have to be dlsfranchised upon the challenge of the democratic town com mittee This is necessary.
 On the other hand the occasion should not be lost to urge 1t upon these young men 10 make use of their votes where they should he recorded, in their home districts A large share of the Yale undergraduates hail from one part or another Of the state of Connecticut There is no vital city con test in New Haven this year in which the powerful influence of the reform collegiate vote Is needed But there Is great need of 1t in tho state gen crally in support of that Yaensian who ia moro than worthy of the un.

QUESTIONABLE UNION METHODS.

It is not a difficult matter to discover great changes In the complex life of our latter-day American municipalities changes which take place within very short space of time, It Is surprising, when we come to think of 1t, how quickly city dwelers aceustom them selves to innovations Today in New York thousands are unconccrnedly rid Ing in the subway system, and even under the dark waters of the East rlv- CT to Brooklyn, who solemnly resolved not to patronize these means of trans portatlon at tho time they were in- stalled not long ago It was not so ed taxicab was an unknown quantity in Gotham, yet today it has quite gen erally superseded the old-tme "cabhy" and his over-taXed, bag bones horse. Such a material part of the general regime of New York life has the taxicab come to be that the public today finds Itself seriously inconveni- enced by the present determined strike of the taxicah chauffeurs
 Perhaps it Is because their occupation Is one of comparatively recent date; perhaps 1t is for other reasons; at any rate, 1t is much to be regretted that the striking "taxlcahbists" have not learned that valuable lesson which trade unionlsts in nearly every other line of work have been slowly but sure ly learning in the last few years namely that to accompany A strike with violence is, as rule, to defeat the very ends which are aimed at Not only does the cause of the particular strikers concerned lose that sympathy with the general public which Is of such material value 10 t when there Is NlDleHCe, uul lIle IduSe VI uulollsiH throughout the country suffers in con- sequence of such disor1erly outbreaks as the present one in New York There is plenty of evidence of this fact in the daily prints of New York It Is little wonder that one reads such editorial comment as the following: General Bingham will be well advised if he spares no pains in dealing with the disorder attending the strike of the taxicab drivers"
 There is no possible excuse for any strikers carving their cause to such extremes that hotels and restaurants throughout the whole length of Man hattan Island find it necessary to pro- tect themselves with solid cordons of police and detectives Conservative men. enrolled in the cause of unlonism arc frownng upon the doings of their allied brothers No matter what the | financial grievance of the men eve are not concerned with thaO, it Is not suf- ficient to justify them in the use of firearms against strike breakers the police, or worst of all innocent by islanders, The sooner unIon'sm real izes that, to win its strikes it must sea to 1t that the element of police ambn- | ances and hospitals does not enter in the sooner will it reach Its golden gate

promising later to make the whole lct- ter public, still later on in the Inter- view Mir. Lilley said 50 you see that the letter is signed by the president, He requests me to forwat7 him q copy of my speech etc.
 We assert that this Is the most eX- traordinarily confused statement q candidate for office in the good old commonwealth of Connecticut ever made, The original Interpretation put upon the presidents unseen letter was false, and was unquestionably put forth in that form, first in q friendly newspaper and then in the Associated Press dispatches. for the purpose of conveying the idea to the electorate that President Roosevelt not only ap- proved of his candidacy, but, what Is more to the point, of his attitude In the naval controversy, thus seeking to neutralize the submarine scandal There is no evidence in the letter that the president sent to MT. Liley for any speech of his upon any subject, as he says he dld, though 1t is reasonably clear that the president did receive some speech or other made by Mir, Lllley, possibly one since the opening of the state campaign. For all we know 1t may have been the Southag- ton speech, There is no evidence whatever to warrant the words T wish you success in your career being interpreted in the news columns of q newspaper, in which the Ldlley fam fly is financially interested, to this effect: The president closes the let ter by cordially wishing Mir. Lilley success in his campaign" only Pres ident Roosevelt can say whether he meant more than conventional greeting in what he actually did say
 IL is impossible to reconcile this in- cident with the straightforwardness and candor of scrupulously honor | able man. In view of his many inac- curacies under oath during the in- vestigation, and his slippery methods of turning incidents to his own ac- count, as in this case, 1t Is impossible to conceive of him sitting in the chair of governor at Hartford. What have our contemporaries who have criticis- | cd our attitude towards Mir Lilley, tc say of this latest, break of his?

There is no surer road 10 the loss of immediate popularity And from the grumbling which has been heard nt Princeton over President Wilson's moderate attempts to make study something more than a trlffing incidental, one can Infer what complaints would he made If President Garfield should proceed mercllessly to close the doors upon all undesira- ble students at Williams.
