. HELPLESS BUNCH.

If there had been needed any evil
dence of the fact that the American
administration of city affairs has bro
ken down entirely, it would be proved
by the situation as TO the bond issue.
Six American" eouncilmen favor sub
hitting TO vote a proposal for $780,
900 of bonds. Black is recalcitrant, not
because he cares a whoop about the
bonds. but because he has been deposed
from an important craftsmanship and
about the bonds. CheerfuIIy inclined
when any move is on to spend public
money or put his relatives in city en-
ploy. he bucks at a proposal TO do some
thing 10 help his party out of a deep
financial ehasm.
When the whole administration of a
city can be bound hand and foot by a
patriot like Black. it is pretty good
evidence that the administration is due
10 take treatment for incipient paresis.
Meanwhile the city is embarrassed by
the continual agitation and discussion
of the bond Question. 1t ought TO be
settled. definitely in some form, and at
once. The people are not likely to vote
large sums, if any, TO an aggregation
whose star member is Black. but they
would like To have a chance TO pass on
the bond proposal at an early date, or
else see it inferred forever.

Hughes beat the race track syndicate in

TO admit that he is a good deal of a

and the gamblers syndicate shouted it.
self hOarse in glee.
Did Hughes quit? Did he resign him
self TO the inevitable and say he had
done his best, anyway? Not noticeably.
He had just begun TO fight. He cam
paigned for the election Of legislators
who would vote with him: he addressed
public assemblies to stimulate public
interest in his battle; he fairly ran rings
around the opposition.
When everything was ripe, Hughes
called a special session of the legisla-
ture, and on Thursday passed his bill
by just one vote, which was plenty.
The victory was won against about
the heaviest odds one could figure. APP
paTently it was hopeless, and yet the
outcome shows that when a determined
man settles down TO fight to a finish
he can beat the most corrupt and de-
moralizing combination in America, the
race track syndicate. In track par
lance. he had them distanced before
the flag fell.

apt to overlook it when he votes. Elim-
ination of trust monopoly by court pros
ecution has degenerated into a farce;
destruction of criminal trusts by any
method under Republican control is not
to be expected. To reach these aggre-
cations of criminals. TO restore the in
dividual to his rightful place in nation
al life. TO stop the debauchery of poll
ties and the robbery of the producers
by monopoly. IS a fixed idea with the
American people; and they viii DELHI
crate a long while before they entrust
the execution of that idea to a party
whose tariff is responsible for the pow
er of the trusts, and whose success
has been dependent almost solely on the
money derived from trust conuibu-
tons.
These are some Of the considerations
that lead his followers to believe Mr..
Bryan will make strong race. Per-
sonally. he is clean, able, not to be
swerved from his convictions by any
device of expediency. He is unques-
tiOnably the most distinguished private
citizen in the country today, and he
enjoys the confidence OF the people as
few men ever have. His chief critics
are newspapers like the New York
World, and men who. like it, are iden-
tilted with all that is obnoxious in
public life today. Their opposition is
