with both these statesmen. But It would IN
evitably stir discord TO side with either.
1t will also be interesting 10 observe what
attitude the reorganiZers take toward the IN
come tax amendment The last Democratic

mission OF such an amendment Mr.. Bryan ana
Mr. Bailey are both strongly committed TO
ratification What will the Saratoga declara-

in the conference undoubtedly realize that New
York will have 10 pay by far the largest share
of the collections under an income tax law
That share would probably be over one-third,
while On the present basis of apportonment
according TO population, New York would nave
TO contribute less than one-tenth. Considera-
tons of state interest would strongly incline
the Democratic leaders at Saratoga to oppose
ratification But will they have the fOrtitude
to defy the Democratic national platform In
order TO combat a tax which must fall with
disproportionate weight on their own slater
We believe that the reorganizers are attempt

BROoKLYN BRIDGE TRAFFIC.

Theory and practice have once more conflict
ed, with disastrous results TO the former. Theo-
reticaly the opening of tunnel under the East
River and two bridges over il should divert
traffic which must otherwise pass across the
Overburdened Brooklyn Bridge: but although
the trains 10 and from Manhattan through the
subway are crowded. and the Williamsburg
Bridge carries its tens OF thousands daily. there
IS not only no dminution in The volume OF
traffic across the Brooklyn Bridge but, on the
contrary, according 10 figures given out by
Bridge Commissioner Stevenson. IL is steadily
increasing
This statement shows that more cars are now
operated across the bridge during the evening
rush hour than ever before During July 1908,
these figures show, the number Of cars In ser
vice across the bridge between the hours Of 3
and was 293, as against 323 for July OF the
present year. No figures are given as 10 the
crowding Of the cars. hut II ia not unfair to
assume that the number or persons using that
structure is greater now than ever before. not
withstanding the competition OF the tunnel and
the other bridges.
While large part OF this increase in traffic
must be due TO the greater number of people
transferred daily from one borough 10 the other.
there are other factors 10 be taken into consld-
GRAFTON, although their influence is not so
marked during the rush hours. The ferry ser
vice Is not 50 good as ii has been. ana this d.
veris some passengers To the bridge. II is also
true that the present style Of local bridge car
does not hold so many passengers as did the
cars of the old shuttle trains but the change
was effected prior to July. 1908, so that the
comparison IS not affected
In any event, the net result is q tribute to the
honest Workmanship put into the first of the
links between Manhattan Island and Brooklyn
The Brooklyn Bridge has for years been used
beyond what its builders assumed to he its
carrying capacity, and il promises TO add many
more years to the generation OF service already
so well given.
