PLATT's THEORY OF POLITICS.

- CELEBRATING his seventy-hfth birthday
- recently former Senator Thomas c. Platt
for many years the boss of New York State pol
itics offered advice Of various sorts as a birth
day present Among other things the Senator
said that a young man ought ito get into poll
tics, and stay in and stay in TO win 1t offers
him chance ito do something for himself and
friends, and for the people" Mr.. Platt practiced
what he preached The FIRST person he looked
out for in his political career was himself There
is no. doubt about that The next object of his
thoughts was his friends. There is no doubt
that the Senator did great deal for his friends
He became wealthy out of politics, and his
friends who were in the various corporations that
%e protected for so many years prohted by the
fact that a shrewd man like Mr.. Platt was in
politics. The last subject that the Senator had
in consideration in his statement was the peo-
pie Here, again, the Senator himself followed
his own maxim. The people are the last subjects
that should engage the attention of practical
politician like Mr. Plat. No doubt many men
in politics follow this rule to the letter
Some Of them are for themselves first, and we
might say, last and all the time. Their friends
used to bring grist to their mill. Others have
some consideration for their friends but too
often the consideration of politician for his
friends is a selfish consideration A man has "to
whack up some of the emouments of politics
with his friends before he can get all he wants
himself
Mr. Platt may have some consideration for that
vast and indefinite body called the people al
though 1t must be confessed that the things that
he has done for the benefit of the people have
not stood out SO that they can be seen. We inn
agine that Mr.. Platt would have to rake his
memory with fine tooth comb to discover what
he has done Of lasting benefit for the people.
The career of Mr.. Platt is but an exemplifca-
tion of the course pursued by many politicians
in fact, by most of them. Politics with them is :
business, an exciting game full of interest and
life, bringing its rewards, its honors and disap
pointments and its glories, or what are presumed
to be glores There is an irresistible fascination
about it all for some men. 1t furnishes a splen
did opportunity for the exercise Of disersifie,
talents
But we fancy that in the coming years tn,
young men who take s1r. Platt's advice will have
20 choose rather different standard Despit,
what the pessimists may say, we believe the po

htical atmosphere is slowly getting better The
practical politicians are learning that public SEN
timent IS demanding higher plane of conduct
and that the power and influence of a selfish poll
ucian will not be so great as it has been in the
past. People are becoming more independent IN
their views and the authority of Platt is not
likely to be as potent as it once was.
Mr. Platt has been an unusually successful poll
ucian. lie has, we have said according to his
own statement looked out for himself and his
friends-and the people.
But while he has been successful, there are 9TH
ers who have made politics their life work and
have ended their careers poor and broken men,
Had they devoted their time and their talents to
other business they would have been more sue
cessful from pecunary point Of view.
There have been men here in Delaware who
spent their lives in active political work, Repub-
litans and Democrats who stood the hard
knocks that come in politics and who really la
bored hard for the success OF their respective
parties Yet when they came to cash in" at the
end, how little had they to show for their life S
work. And they were practical politicians, too,
men who had ample opportunity to make money
and become comfortably fixed financially There
are others in Delaware, who have followed the
Platt maxims, looking out for themselves, their
friends and the people with a very faint accent
on the people To them, riches have come.
We presume that there will always be a certain
percentage OF persons who will take up political
careers, but it is doubtful whether a larger per-
centage Of men than in the past wirdevote them
selves to politics. In fact many solid and sub
stantial men in a community will continue to give
their sons counsel to avoid politics as they would
avoid plague.

1NcoME rAx AMENDMENr.

ID ECAUSE the House and Senate at Wash
O ington passed the resolution calling on the
states to vote on the question Of whether the
constitution shall be amended to permit the levy
ing of an income tax it does not follow that those
who supported the resolution favor the income
tax Some OF the supporters of the resolution are
already opposing the income tax principle, others
are on the fence while still others heartily favor
the tax. The question in effect whether the
people should express their opinion on the mat
ter A man might believe that the people OF
community should have the right to vote as 10
whether liquor shall be sold or not, but at the
same time he might be strongly opposed to pro-
hibition. That is the situation with regard to
the income tax'proposa it was before Con-
gress.
The income tax amendment will be thoroughly
debated and presented in its different phases be-
fore the Legislatures take action. In the West
ern and Southern States the referendum will
probably be used-that is, the voters will have
an opportunity to vote on the question with the
presumption that the Legislatures will be bound
by that vote.
II will be recalled that before the decision of
the Supreme Court in 1906 upsetting the income
tax law there was no serious doubt of the consti-
tutionality of such measure. Tho states are
asked to restore to the governmentfan authority
which il had been supposed TO possess until the
Supreme Court by narrow margin OF one vote
decided otherwise.
There has been some talk that Jefferson and
the founders of the nation were opposed to an in
come tax. opposed to what was then and is to-
da, generally regarded and accepted as an estab-
lished canon of taxation. This rule of taxation
as iad down by Adam Smith is that the sub
iects Of every government ought 70 contribute
towards its support according to their respective
abilities. Every form of taxation, no matter how
it may be disguised, centers round this rule. II
is hardly likely that the founders of the country
wished to oppose the rule that was put forth
about the same time that our constitution was
made.

BATHING SUITS

Cool Spring Park have been provided
by Benjamin f. Shaw, president Of
the Board Of Water Commissioners.
The suits will be loaned to the chill
dren. Henry M. Lang. superinten-
dent Of the park, will have charge Of
the suits.
The wading pool, which is in the cen
ter of Cool Spring Park, is the most
popular spot in the city for children
during these blazing days, and Mr.
Shaw's interest in the childrens COM
fort was the result OF their eagerness
to disport in the water. The pool has
been arranged with great care both as
TO safety and comfort. Nearly 500
children bathe in the pool during the
hottest days. a dressing room has
been arranged for the children on
either side Of the pool among the trees.
Mr. Lang and a force Of five men are
stationed at the park and care for the
children.

mora good pitchers they might have won
second place in the National league con-

their standing yesterday. The record OF
the baseball season, thus far in a pecu-
MARY and popular sense. equals that of
last year. Nothing else all over the coun-
try Is quite 80 popular as the national
game But oh, the ptchersl Pittsburg has
three who are ''un to date" The pitching
OF the New Yorks looks well enoush, but
counts for next to nothing in playing
cept when Mathewson is in the box.
Pitchers must be caught young and care
fully nourished. The demand for them
was never greater. Modern baseball Is a
great game. and pitching the ball Is the
best part OF II, even when Wagner Is at
the bat or in the field. The lesson of the
season Is, thus far, that without the best
sort Of pitchers young, agile, skllful, alb e

not have the hest kind Of baseball.
The pitcher must keep hts nerve and
be able to do his best IN the presence OF
