NEW YORk'S ACTING MAYOR

Greater far than the governorship of many
states perhaps than any of them, is the mayor
ship Of New York. which has lately been filled
by young man Of only thrty-John Purroy Nit
chell, who became the acting chief executive of
the metropolis upon the disability of Mr.. Gaynor.
He IS undoubtedly the youngest chief executive
any great American city has ever had and it
shows the great American capacity for govern
ment when so young man can step into seat
of power so great Of honor so high and RESPONSE
bties so vast.
Within an hour after Mayor Gaynor had been
struck down by an assassns bullet 1t is safe to
say that at least half the men in New York who
give any attention to public affairs and their man

Reasons Why Successful.

There are three essential elements, ac-
cording to "The Philadelphia Record"
that make for success in a modern news
paper: First, it must print all the news,
with all eye to the interests OF all types OF
readers, in attractive and entertaining form
Second, whatever political cause 1t may
editorially spouse, 1t must be fair, tree OF
outside dlctatiOn, sincere in advocating the
policies it believes to be best for the gen
eral welfare. Third, it must be clean,
wholesome and e~levating in its in ence.
ssThe Record itself possesses all these
elements of success, and them some. indie
pendently Democratic in politics, it in as
nearly nonpartisan as a newspaper can be
in its news columns, which fully and occn-
rately cover the entire field tributary 10
Philadelphia. Aside from its news depart
ments, including its daily market reports,
which are the recognized authority IN pro-
duce transactions, it is pre- : eminent In
several other features that have cOntribu

newspaper. The last word on household
affairs, science fashions and farm progress
is found in it's regular departments. Its

Vivian M. Lewis For Governor

The Republican State Convention

Vivian M. Lewis for Governor. The

SO there was not much opposition.

The Passing of Korea.


It comes as no surprise to the world
that Korea, Land Of the Morning Calm,
ancient kingdom Of the orient, has
passed off the map. The mikado Of
Japan has had his big eraser ready for
some years, waiting to use it only
when the act of erasure would create
no protest from the powers. Korea,
being a weaker sister, has fallen by
the wayside. Japan, grown powerful
these past fifty years. sfnSa Commo-
dore Perry opened her ports to the
world, seems to be the proper guard

1t is. not to be. disputed that Japan
has strong armed Korea. using the
garrote method In subduing the little
kingdom to her imperious will. Korea,
quaint, content and calm. had not
learned the strenuous life. She knew
not how to walk in the ways Of other

Amid "the tumuIt and the shouting
of the Roosevelt and anti-RooseveIt
forces in New York state there Is dam
ger that the issue Of the fight will be
obscured- This issue is direct nomina-
tons. 1t was because he espoused
Governor Hughes plan to do away
with nominating conventions and to let
the voters of a party choose their own
candidates that Colonel Roosevelt was
turned down by the "old guard"
State wide primaries are already pro-
vided by law in California, Illinois,
Iowa, Kansas, Louisiana. Mississippi,
Missouri, Michigan, Nebraska. New
Hampshire, North Dakota. Oklahoma.
Oregon, South Dakota. Texas. Wash
ington and Wisconsin. Minnesota.
Ohio and Pennsylvania have direct
primaries on all but state offices. while
thirteen other states have the system
In a limited form. and party rules pro
vide for state wide primaries in yet
other states. Thus direct nominations
In one form or another obtain in most
Of the country
The Hughes plan in New York is diff
ferent from that In effect in most of
the states mentioned. Its friends claim
that it is superior to the simon pure
brand for the reason that it requires
responsible party committees to sug-
gest candidates for offices, leaving the
way open for the voters also to sug-
gest candidates. This puts the COM
mittee on record and forces 1t to fight
In the open. The original Green
Hinman bill, which was defeated in
the New York legislature, provided
for state wide primaries, while the
Cobb bill, on which the fight was
finally made, excepted state and mu-
nicipal Offices. It was the Cobb bill
that Roosevelt and Taft Endorsed.
Now the colonel and his friends are
determined to put direct primaries in
the party platform, and on this issue
will be waged one Of the hardest con-
vention battles ever seen in the EN-
pire State. ]. A. EDGERTON.

The Census Showing Of Population.

The Census Showing Of Population.
Whether our population is about
100000, as recent calculation put 1t.
or upward of 1OO,OOO,OOO, as was esti-
mated when the work of census taking
began, it is all the same. This is a
growing country. 1t is growing strong
The family is so big that Uncle Sam
can afford to lay more stress on quail
ity than on quantity. One important
question which the completed census
showing will decide is the distribution
Of population. There have been
changes. Some places and sections
have increased more than other places
and sections.
immigration appears to have had
less to do with the increase from
about 10000, 900 in 1900 to approx
mately 90,OO0.OOO in 1910 than was
supposed. About one in every three of
the immigrants who landed between
1900 and 1910 returned to the old
country. The net increase from immi-
grafton was about 100000, or one
third of the total increase. The per-
centage Of increase during the ten
year period from 1890 to 1900 was not
maintained from 1900 to 1910. The
cause of this decline is another impor-
tant question which the completed
census should throw light upon.
