A sPoRT.LovIne PEOPLE.

The Anglo saxons love sport. No
meter In what part Of the world they
are found. the spirit Is strong among
them. Wherever the restless Anglo
Saxon dominates. the love Of sport Is
dominant. The Americans are-at
least. the most OF them-descendants
Of this virile race, and nowhere Is the
love Of sport so much exhibited as In
this country. Our people are patrons
Of horseracing. OF baseball. OF golf. Of
football. OF all out-of-door sports as no
other people. The English are great
sportsmen. but not to the extent that
Americans are. for the reason that
the opportunities are greater here.
Nor does the nation suffer from this
propensity. We are told. of course.
by some Of our college thinkers that
our young men indulge too much In
athletics. that this indulgence is det-
riment rather than a benefit to the
boys; that because Of the FAD" Is
these wiseacres term 1t. we are In.
3uring the physical powers Of the
boys. We do not take much stock in
this sort Of pessimism. Here and there
. few may overdo themselves and fall
by the wayside: but athletic competi-
ton has never. in our judgment. seri.
ously injured American youth. On
the contrary. 1t has developed In them
muscle. courage and self-reliance.

success when they are called upon to

Mr.. ODELL ON CAMPAIGN.
Thinks Republicans Nay Hin May
Oralty Nth Tar Rate Issue.

Ex-Governor Benjamin B Odell. who returned on
the Kaiser Wilhelm II. OF the North German Lloyd
Line. yesterday. had some pertinent things say
about the political campaign. When Mr.. Ode
sailed for Europe the report was that Edward H.
Hartman had summoned him 20 the other side.
and his return on the same steamer with Mr.. Har-
riman is thought 10 be significant
Personally, l longer take an active interest
in politics" said the Ex-Governor, land as l am
not resident OF New York City I cannot be IN
any way connected with the situation here. There
is chance, l think, OF electing a Republican
Mayor If the people can be made to see the
economic significance of the situation The tax
payers in New York are. Of course, a very small
minority.
If the people be shown and made fully TO
realize that an increase IN the tax rate means an
increase in rents and in the cost Of living then
perhaps the Tammany candidate may be defeated.
The present administration has undoubtedly been
an expensive one. and II the taxpayers see that
and what it means 10 them and their own
pocketbooks. think the Republicans have a very
good chance OF electing their man."
When asked TO his estimate Of Seth Low as a
possible Republican candidate he replied that the
selection would unquestionably be a good one AS
TO the split between Murphy and McCarren. he
said, it seemed TO be a serious break but in an
election both would probably order their followers
to vote the straight Democratic ticket. They
can't afford 70 cut off their noses to spite their
faces" he added
Among the passengers to arrive yesterday were
William r. Wilcox. chairman of the Public Ser
vice Commission Rear Admiral Adolph Mark and
Rear Admiral ". H. Reeder Kaiser Wilhelm H.
and Martin J. c. T. Clan. Danish Consul General at
