 Extravagance of Repubs.
 The Republican State administra- tions since David B. Hiu's term as Governor are accused of gross waste fitness and 1t Is demanded ''that the public expenditures shall be so safe guarded that sinecures shall be abol- ished. that economy shall be practiced in every public department and that the business of the people be trans acted on lines on which successful pri- vate enterprises are conducted"
 The promises of reform on which the present Governor was elected" the platform alleges. have not been kept. We point as proof of this fact to the expenditures of 1907 which are larger than the extravagant sums expended under the predecessors of Governor Hughes. We charge him with the re- sponsibility for the waste and with giving his time and attention to the pursuit of spectacular methods and self advertising issues rather than to the work of reform and retrenchment. on the promise of which he was elected Governor two years ago.
 Instead of cutting off the tax-eaters from the list of officeholders he has caused new ones to be added to 1t and
  which have been brought into exist ence at his suggestion and dictation. he has created offices holders who havs woefully failed to better the condition of affairs confided to their charge.
 We be1ieve.S the platform further says, that government of the state by commissions Is only another evt- dence of the Republican policy of cen- traiizatfon and is in direct opposition to the principles of government by the people.
 'It wants less noise. less legislation In new and untried lines and of doubt ful constitutionality and less interfer- ence with personal and economic lib- erty.
 we favor the election of United States Senators by direct vote of the people.

The economic vauesof the immigrant which y largely lost to us is strik-
ingly shown in a statement by the New York department Of agriculture. Dur
ig The las three years more than a million immigrants settled in the State,
and in that time sent abroad their savings, amounting to about sS000o00.
Recently about $1,000 of these immigrants returned TO their old homes. taking
with them probably $780, 100000. Nearly Ill had settled in cities. If they had
been placed in tho rural sdisicts or farms the value of farm lands would have
been doubled. Making all allowances for these figures, it is evident that by
the sheerest neglect by government New York State has lost a immense
capital. and has besides lost all the greatly increased property value that
could have been had by pursuance of an enlightened policy. Postal savings
banks would have saved the capital sent abroad, and a welLorganized State
system of distributing immigrants throughout the agricultural sections of the
State would rave relieved labor congestion In the cities, built up the farming
interests, increased agricultural property by many millions in vEue and pre-
vented the exodus since the panic. But no State has such a policy and system
New Jersey al none, moos the pity and her farmers are put to straits to get
