MR.. LEwls,s BEST EFFORT:

TIT was expected that Mr.. Lewis would reserve his best efforts
LII for his speech at the opening of the State campaign ID New
ark, the heart of the great pivotal county OF Essex, and he
did. If he failed 10 come up to expectations it was not his 1aut'
Like the lawyer with a client who was caught with the goods on
him, Mr.. Lewis had a tough case for presentation and also a not
very friendly jury in the Newark public, and he did his best. In
~doubtedly Mr.. Lewis would make a better impression upon the
public if his campaign encourage did not contain so many men
identified with the worst abuses of State government IN the last
fifteen years, and men known to be closely affiliated with the great
corporate interests. How does any kind of promises of reform talk
sound when uttered amid a group of supporters who VIGOROUSLY
don't respect campaign promises and who have always been the
inteterate enemies of popular reform? If ga man is known by the
company he keeps" how can a candidate under these circumstances
invite confidence and trust? Mr.. Lewis cannot shake off these com
promising supporters, for they are his party chiefs. No doubt he
would like to. He has repudiated some of their worst acts and
promised to recommend atonement, but with the acknowledgment
that he would never go beyond the stage of mere recommendation.

The sidewalk Hog.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
One of your correspondents recently
touched up" the "road-hog," the
driver who keeps his vehicle in the
trolley tracks regardless Of the peo-
pie in the cars that are anxious to
get home or go to work. This road
hog was scored good and hard, and
rightly SO xa 81
But there is another kindsof a "hoga
that is flourishing remarkably just
now. He hogs: the sidewalk with his
wares. His habitat is where he walk
is narrowest, and he may be seen In
his ~full-fedged glory on some of the
narrow streets downtown.
1t is just about time that the police
or somebody else in authority did some
first-ciass hog-killing along this line.
Let the start be made at once, as the
nature of the hog. as everybody knows,
is to keep right on Until everything in
sight is gone. So If no halt is made
instantly the little bit Of sidewalk that
Is still left in some of the streets
will be eaten up and pedestrians will
be expected to take to the middle of
the road. ANTI-HOG.

A CONSTITUTIONAL GOVERNOR" DEFINED.

TS HERE was never a time during the last four gubernatorial
administrations in this State until 1909 that the Republican
State Committee gave any thought or said a word about the
Constitution as relating to the conduct of the Governor in office.
Not until the second year of the Fort administration, when Govern
or Fort made an issue with the State committee whether that body
or the Governor should instruct the Legislature. Governor Fort
came out second best. The vexatious interference by Governor Fort
with State committee control of legislation was not to be repeated.
The committee, having sat in judgment on it, decided it was uncon-
stitutional. What they wanted was a constitutional Governor. At
the Auditorium meeting last night Committeeman Franklin Murphy
took occasion in his speech to lay down the constitutional law for
The candidate. 1t was time, he said, for some of us to reread the
Constitution. with the State committee amendment, of course. The
Governors duties and limitations were clearly defined. 1t was "too
much to ask a man to be Governor, Legislature and Supreme Court,
toon Very pleasantly put. The State committee might be all three,
but it isn't bound by the Constitution. tt has no defined limits.
With a Governor tied hand and foot by State committee construc-
tons of the Constitution, the State committee will be Governor,
Legislature and Supreme Court.

A DEFENSE OF STATE Ex7R4vAdANcE.

TIA WDENTLY Mr.. Lewis would not stand for the campaign
ID statement gotten up in the State comptroler's office, in
which it is ingeniously cphered out that the State govern,
ment when it was run at a cost of 81, 600, was more extrava
ganty expensive than it is today, when the annual cost is more than
$%7,0OOO00. So it was left to John W. Griggs in his speech last night
to work off the thing on the audience. Mr.. Griggs is an old hand
at that business. The statement in question is intended for a cam.
paign circular for distribution throughout the State after doing
duty at the meetings in Essex last night. 1t will be largely quoted
by the campaign speakers regardless of it's falsites and utter alb.
surdities. Senator Aldrich made the deliberate declaration in the
Senate last winter that he could run the Federal government equally
as we'll at an annual cost. %$30O,OOOOO0 less than the present cost
under a Republican administration, and we take no hazard in the
claim that State government in New Jersey could be run better
than it is now at a cost a million dollars a year less than the pres
ent cost under Republican management. There is no other State in
the Union that shows in its governmental expenses an increase
equal to that of government in New jersey. There is no parallel
for it. The increase is 100 per cent. greater than that of State gov
eminent in New York, a State notorious for its extravaganza and
graft. -

WOMEN AND THE TARIEE.

TIA DWARD w. TOWNSEND, who is to succeed Representative
IL Parker in the Seventh district, well remarks that "if women
were shown what are the effects of the Payne-Aldrich tariff
there would be a speedy revision downward" Women bear the
brunt of it even more than the men, and most of them are not con-
scious of the fact that the constant struggle they have to make to
keep up their homes and provide food and clothing for their chill
dren is due to the Payne-Aldrich tariff, which is the great issue in
the election this year. The wives of workingmen, of course, have
the hardest struggle to make both ends meet. Upon them the tariff
bears heaviest. In clothing they are the largest purchasers of cot
ton goods, the duties on which were so extravagantly advanced by
Congress last wear, the increase by the Payne-Aldrich tariff being
as high as rs per cent. over the Dingley tariff.

training, which is so severely criticised,
chial school, would seem to render him
especially fitted to deal with church
affairs in an intelligent and proper
manner. AS to Musicians Union No. Is,
whose actions. are denounced by Past
Master, the facts in the case are as fol-
lows; Six weeks ago a committee Of
two, appointed by our board of direc-
tors for the purpose, waited upon the
secretary of the Holy Name parade
committee, and told him of our. stand,
as to open shop conditions. The secre-
tary told them that he believed in
unionism, that a majority OF his con-
gregation were union men, and that he
would do all he could to have only
union bands in line. The matter of the
Crescent Band, which is not recognized
by the American Federation Of Must
clans or the Essex Trades Council, was
mentioned to him, as well as the fact
that We had objected annually for three
years to their participating in the Holy
Name parade; each time Intellectually.
The secretary asked the name of the
parish engaging this band against our
protests and promised to communicate
with that parish. Two days before the
parade October y we learned that the
Crescent band was engaged to play
again for this same parish. Our dele
gate was sent to see the priest of this
parish and he explained that our mem
bers would not march IL this band was
In line. The priest said he would not
disengage the band, but would parade
with them, wen il he marched alone.
On October II the band to which we
objected was not in evidence until long
after the parade was started and well
on the way to Its destination, when they
slid in from some hiding place where
they could not be found be forehand by
our members, and there remained moth
ing else for our members to do but re-
fuse to parade in their company.
There was no wish or intention to de-
lay or hamper the great testimonial to
the cause of religion and a~nti-profan-
ity, but our union, which has in its
ranks representatives of more races and
creeds than probably any organization
in this city, was obliged to act as 1t did
in Justice to othertoccasions and in or
der to be consistent.

Patrol Wage Not nj Ambulance.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
In a recent cop of the EVENING

a matter of luck that many more %
pie do not lose their lives in this man.
ner. The police wagon is not meant
to. be an ambulance and, by all means,
should not be one; therefore, 1t makes
a very poor hospital conveyance. The
head of the police department and the
Board of Health have a duty to per-
form in connection with this matter,
in the abolition of the police patrol
ambulance. A relative OF mine Is a
member of the police department., and
I can speak with truth about the con-
ditions existing relative to this matter.
Can any good reason be given for
the carrying of diseased people In the
same vehicle that perfectly we'll and
healthy beings are conveyed in also?
This is not a complaint from a
rabid 'police knocker," because the
members of the department are among
those who are victims Of the infected
patrol. The head and responsible ones
of the department are the persons who
can take this as a personal rebuff. The
