me cIIIam Meetings.

The Rev. Ralph Gillian OF Boston
preached to an audience that practically
allied the Congl church last Sunday
morning. He spoke Of the crowns which
are bestowed upon the Christian as re-
ward OF service. The crown OF glory, the
crown OF life and the crown studded with
gems OF disciples won for Christ we're
shown to be we'll worth mans striving
after them.
The afternoon service was especially for
young people. The preacher emphasized
the need of seeking God in the early days
Of life, when it can be done with best re-
suits. At the close of the service several
persons decided 20 begin the Christian
life. The evening service was very inn
pressive, in which the need and the priyi-
iege of prayer were set forth in remark
ably practical manner. 1t is evident that
a spiritual impression is icing made upon
the community.

There's the man forever Dragging

A FANTASTIC VAGARY.

II is probable that no more fantastic Vagary
Of newspaper ina inatiOn has found its way
into the columns of the American press than
the report which apparently emanates from
Mexico. to the effect that it is the purpose of
President Taft and President Daz, when they
meet at RI I'aSo. to perfect scheme for a
confederation of the Central American republics
under The joint suzerainty of Mexico and the
United States.
II is entirely possible that as reports continue
ia reach this country and Mexico of Central
American revolutions, of strife and turmoil, OF
unpaid international obligations and violated
concessions, both executives wish that some
such solution of Central American difficulties
were possible, that is if the idea ever occurred
10 them: but so far is it from the possible that
il is doubtful if either Taft or Diaz has even
given the matter a moments serious considera-
ton.
There was a time, during President ROoSe
velt's administration when President Zelaya
was credited with an ambition to form Central
American federation, not, of course, under the
sIlzerainty Of the United States and Mexico but
under the sole personal supervision of Senior
Zelaya. When a prominent American diplomat
was aDproached on the subject he laughingly re-
marked that possibly it would be a relief il
Mr. Zelaya could achieve his ambition, it
might ''prove easier to deal with one pirate
than with a half Dozen" II is barely possible
that this remark has travelled slowly until
finally it has reached Mexico and is there made
the basis for the fantastic prediction referred
10. But if President Zelaya once cherished such
an ambition ne can hardly do so now, when
events have demonstrated his inability TO adj
minister even the affairs of Nicaragua without
a revolution, and when some, at least, Of his fel-
low citizens suspect him of purpOsing TO de
plete the national treasury, il that term can be
used Of n treasury already nearly empty, and
depart for Europe 10 live in comparative peace
and quiet
II is, perhaps, unfortunate that the Central
American republics cannot see their way clear

DAMAGING EVASION.

IF Justice Gaynor continues to evade the
charges made again him by Mr.. WINS, and sup
ported by Assistant District Attorney Elder, OF
Kings County, and, in part, by District Attorney
Coles, Of Nassau County, the people will come
to believe them.
We will leave all the blackguards and the
abusers to go their way, and the mudsllngers
Even though they bespatter me, shall not turn
to answer.
That was Justice Gaynor's only reference to
the charges In Thursday nights speech. That
is, we are sorry to say, the way man talks
who has no defence and who is trying to bluff
it out If Justice Gaynor should disprOve the
charges against him the reaction in his favor
would be tremendous, for the public demands
fair play in political encounters He knows the
people well enough TO know this, and conse-
quently il he had an adequate and convincing
defence he would be expected to be prompt In
bringing 1t forward. His failure to meet the
charges Is therefore suspicious, and, if he per-
sists in it, will be regarded by the public as
equivalent to a confession
The charges are not made by "blackguards
or "abusers' or ''mudslingers." 1t is only an
example of the judges own abusive habits that
he applies such terms to the prosecuting officers
of two counties. And if they were mere mud
singers, what license has the Tammany candl-
date TO take such lofty attitude toward mud Z
Mud is his element. Much of his Importance III
public life he owes to his unsparing use OF mud
And the speech in which he referred with sucn
lofty contempt to "backguards" "abusers" and
''mudslingers' chiefly made up of black
guardism abuse and mud. He spattered MI
Hearst, General Bingham, Mr.. Parsons and Mr.
WINS from his own verbal wallOw, while pre-
tending to have a fine scOrn for mere abuse
But the accusation cannot be thus lodged. IL
il is true we suspect even RoeSch Will retire
from the Tammany ticket for shame of being
associated with a judge who would conspire
with prospective litigants and aid them in beat
ing law and evading the constitution.

NEW JERSEYS WATER GRAB.

The demand that special session of the New
Jersey Legislature be called TO stop the diver
sion of potable water from that state may or
NAV not he granted. That will depend upon
some legal aspects of the case. But the demand
is none too strong. The scheme which is now
being pushed is In cynical violation OF the spirit
Of the law and contrary to good public morals
and TO the welfare of the state. If successful,
it would be a spoation for sOrdid purposes OF
one OF the most precious natural resources OF
the state and an appropriation Of.publ1c wealth
for private use and gain.
The law at present rightly forbids the aver
sion of the surface waters of the state to an
other state The present scheme. therefore Is
to divert what is speciOusly called the sub-sur-
face water, which is to be taken from wells. of
course. large part of the surface water would
inevitably be taken. Springs would be tapped
below the surface so that their flow on the sur
face and the flow of the streams which they
feed would be diminished. Precisely that has
happened in various other places, and there Is
no reason to doubt that it would happen in New
Jersey.
The state of New Jersey has, or will soon
have, need of all it's water supply for it's own
uses Indeed, it is easily conceivable that In
another generation or two its population will be
so great that the limited area of its watershed
will be scarcely sufficient to provide for It's
needs 1t ought, in justice to itself and TO lts
future to conserve, to redeem and protect from
pollution and to preserve from alien diversion
every drop of it's potable water supply, bOtn on
the surface and under ground.

WILLIAM LINDSAY.

William Lindsay. who died yesterday, repre-
scented Kentucky in the United States Senate at
a time when that state still exercised large
influence in national affairs, chiefly because OF
the ability of its representatives in the Senate
and House Of Representatives and their position
of leadership in the Democratic party At the
end of Mr. Cleveland's first term as President
the two Senators were James r. Beck and
Joseph c. s Blackburn. John G. Carlisle had
been for three terms Speaker of the House Of
Representatives. and was still member Of that
body He was elected Senator in 1890 to fill
the vacancy caused by Mr.. BeCk's death. Also
in the House delegation at that time We're w. e.
T. Breckenridge James Il. McCreary and Asher
G.. Caruth-all conspicuous both legislators
and in party management When Mr. Carlisle
went into Mr. Cleveland's second Cabinet Mr..
Lindsay was chosen Senator, and next to Beck
and Carlisle he measured most fully up to the
high standard of capacity and integrity in it's
public men which was the boast of the Blue
grass state.
The upheaval in the Democratic party and in
Kentucky politics due to the free silver coinage
controversy and to the rise of William Goebel
separated these leaders and drove them grad
ually from public life. Mr. Carlisle deserted
Kentucky after serving ont his term as Secre-
tary of the Treasury. Mr.. Blackburn and Mr..
Lindsay took opposite sides the silver Ques-
ton. The former was defeated for reelection,
then returned and then again defeated The
latter became a Gold Democrat, and at the end
of his second term retired from active politics.
Mr.. Breckenridge defeated for renomina-
ton in 1894 and Mr.. McCreary, out of Office
for time, was sent back to Washington for one
term in the Senate He has now been succeeded
by a Republican. Mr. Caruth's last service was
in the Congress of 1S93'95.
AS a Senator Mr.. Lindsay took high rank.
although his service was relatively short He
was learned eloquent and convincing with
broad views of public policy and the courage to
sustain them. Having taken a stand against
free silver coinage, he held fast To his convic-
lions to the end, although the Democratic party
in his state sided with Bryan and most OF
the former anti-sver leaders acquiesced in
Mr.. Bryan's denomination in 1900. He had
genial personality, and his towering figure gave
him distinction which his qualities of mind

wording of the law seems hardly important.
Regardless of any newspaper reports, the Secre-
tary has not, however. signiied any intention
OF reversing this policy. But even if he had,
Judge HanfOrds concluding statement that
nothing more extravagant wastefu and mo-
'nopolistic has been proposed than the scheme
of excluding families from land needed for
homes in order 10 save IL for cattle ranges
etc would be both misleading and unfair
The principle Of forest conservation consists Of
preserving and utilizing certain areas Of forest
that they may continue to produce timber for
the use of all the people and prevent the enjoy
ment Of a complete monopoly by those who have
acquired ownership Of all privately owned for
ests. Whether certain tillable acres compris-
ing a small proportion of the whole, shall be
opened TO entry under the homestead act or
utilized for grazing is again a detail of man
agement, and to present it as an essential OF
the conservation policy is to misrepresent that
policy. The Tribune does not pretend to be an
apologist for all the details of forest reserve
management. Possibly som" of the methods
are III judged. If so, they are proper subjects
Of criticism, and those familiar with the facts
should seek to remedy the defects; but. as was
asserted in the editorial to which Judge Han
ford takes exception. those who would effect
the correction of certain methods twill only
hamper their own efforts by attacking the
policy with misrepresentation"
