the state law. and this was answered
in the affirmative. So far as these TWO
poipts went. therefore. the decision was
against the town and would have per-
United the destruction of the falls
But the pith of the whole matter was
in the third point. The town argued
that while the defendant company had
under the state constitution the riSnt
Ito divert the Incorporated waters OF
'sany natural stream to beneficial uses,
If could not divert the waters OF this
stream because they had already Deeh
appropriated to beneficial uses by the
town. and were therefore no longer "un-
appropriated waters" The question was
whether the use Of the stream 10 main
tain the falls, the verdure and the beau.
tifuI scenery was beneficial use III
the intent of the constitution, and this,
happily. the court answered in the al
flrmative It held that beneficial use
was not necessarily agricultural, INDUS
trial or commercial use Said the judge:
Public health is a beneficial use. Rest
and recreation is a beneficial use. ana
for that purpose water is used to make
beautiful lawns, shady avenues dtidC-
tive homes and public parks with lake
lets and streams and artificial scenic
beauty. Parks and Fairgrounds ana
grass are benefits and their uses bene-
fetal. although there is no profit derived
from them. The world delights in scenic
beauty. but must scenic beauty dlsap-
near because it has no appraised cash
yaIue? IT is therefore held that the
maintenance of the vegetation in cas-
cade Greek. by the flow and seepage ana
mist and spray of the stream ana It's
falls as it passes through the canyon: Is
a beneficial use of such waters WlthIl
the meaning of the constitution.
Accordingly, the waters of the stream
were adjudged to have been already
fully appropriated for beneficial uses
and an injunction was issued against the
intended diversion CT them for industrial
purposes. That enlightened view of the
subject is to be commended as prece-
dent wherever n spot of scenic beauty
is threatened with destruction for sordld
purposes. The United States Circuit
Court in Colorado has adjudged beauty
to be useful and lovely scenery TO ne
beneficial. and. therefore. to be en-
titled to the fun protection of the
law. the same as any other valuable as
set. In that judgment there is cause for
lovers Of the beautiful to thank God
and take courage"

SMOKE AND OIL IN THE STREETS,


From at least two major points of
view earnest commentator is to be
given to the Health commissioners cam
paign against the automobile smoke
nuisance in city streets and also TO the
movement to compel the operators OF
such vehicles to stop spilling oil on
the pavement Both these practices are
ndisputably unpleasant and offensive,
and probably injurious and dangerous,
and both are susceptible of abatement.
There can be no question of the right
and power of the Health and Police de-
partments to deal with such matters,
and there is urgent need that the power
shall now be exercised.
The occasional emission of smoke
from automobiles is probably unavoid-
able and excusable. But for a car to
run mile after mile with a dense trail
of acrid smoke pouring from it Is not
excusable 1t is not necessary, and II
il were il would constitute pretty
strong argument for excluding the car
from the highways altogether. The
smoke is certainly exceedingly unpleas-
ant to the senses, and in many cases 1t
may be positively injurious to the visual
and respiratory organs of those who are
exposed to If.
The splitting and stopping Of oil on
the streets. until they are saturated with
it and dotted with puddles OF it, IS also
an inexcusable nuisance. It fills the
air with bad smell, it makes the
streets dangerously slippery to walk
on. and 1t often is a cause of soiling
and practically running clothing and
ether articles Now and then. AS in the
case Of smoke. little oil will of course
get spilled on the street But there
is no reason for any such wholesale eff
fusion of it as is 10 be observed in this
city. Either little more care or the
provision of drip pans to catch it is all
that is needed to abate the nuisance.
The other point of view from which
both these practices are to he regarded
is that of the selfish interest Of those
who are guilty of them. It is u well
known fact that a smoking motor IS
motor which is being improperly used
and is therefore being injured. The
very conditions which cause the smoke
cause injury to the mechanism Thus
the chauffeur who permits his car to
smoke is injurinE the car as well as
affecting the public. OF course. in the
other case the oil which is poured on
the street is oil wasted, and that means
increased expense of operating the car
II the abatement of these nuisances
meant increased expense to the owners
or drivers Of cars. It should still be in
sisted upon for the welfare of the pub
lie. But since, on the contrary, it will
mean a decrease of their expenses and
therefore the promotion of their own
good, there can be no reasonable resist
ance or objection to It.

BOSS" GAYNOR.

So the Rochester convention did have
a boss after ALL We have been assured
over and over again 10y the editorial
pages of our contemporaries who usually
shout themselves black in the face about
the bossing Of the Democratic conVen-
tions of Tammany Hall that this con-
vention was an exception, and had no
bosSI Editorial pages, we say. for the
news columns of the same papers at the
time of the convention with singular
unanimity declared that Murphy had the
delegates lin the hollow Of his hand.
Now il appears that both the news col
unlns of these papers and their editorial
pages were mistaken. a remarkable situa-
ton considering that between them they
appeared TO occupy both sides of the
question, The convention did have a
boss, And that boss was not Murphy.
The boss was our good friend Mayor
Gaynor. 1t appears that 1t was not
Murphy but GaynOr who held the con-
vention lin the hollow OF his hand.
Nobody discovered it at the time, and
there is nothing for our contemporaries
10 do but to discipline their correspond
ents for failure TO learn that Gaynor
was the boss Of the Rochester gather
inc and that he. not Murphy. held it in
the hollow of bis hand" The confer
ences in Room 212" were only an
empty form. Nothing was determined
there. The convention did not wait
until the last message, You are wanted
in Room 2l2." had been needed and
every one was cognizant of the plans
formed there. 1t waited solely until the
boss at 81. James could he heard from
finally. and when Man Friday Creelman
appeared with the orders the nomination
of Dix took place. That Boss Gaynor
chose the man whom Murphy had made
state chairman, and who in that ca
paclty was supposed to have helped
Murphy get the convention in the hoi-
low of his hand was purely coinci-
dence. Or perhaps the boss wanted TO
show that he was not merely indulginS
his sardonic humoT when he asked the
public 10 say good word for Murphy.

W4BBLING KING KILLERS.

The New York World said yester
day. commenting on Mr.. DiX's Buffalo
speech:
For this reason Mr.. Dix III his address
last night at Buffalo very appropriately
renewed the solemn words of his speech
Of acceptance that Mr.. Roosevelt him
self. his record. his ambitions, his char
acter, his methods. are the most vital
issue ever presented to tie people of
New York.
But if this he true, why does our
friend and neighbor continue 10 accuse
Colonel Roosevelt and Mr.. Stimson of
running away from the cost Of living"
as if that were the real question in
this campaign? If the snutfing out of
Republican institutions impends. as The
World thinks if does, and can be pre-
vented only by the election of Mr.. Dix
as Governor of this state, every intelli-
gent person will agree that the strength
ening of Mr.. Dix's good right arm for
king killing" purposes is 1.-The most
"vital issue ever presented to the people
''Of New York"
The subversion of the Constitution,
which. we are told. Mr.. DiX's election
alone can forestall, would certainly rank
higher in our calendar of political
calamities even than the Crime of

that crime also made it vital" not 10
say paramount. issue both in New
York and over the entire country. The
Democratic party set out in 1896 to re-
pair the consequences of the tragedy
and stuck 10 the job Of repairing them
for several years. 1t kept its eye fixed
on the crime and the criminals and did
rot allow itself 10 he diverted by side
issues of any sort. Those who have
rallied behind Mr. Dix as the sole hope
of republican institutions at this critical
iuncture should treat their paramount
issue with the same solemnity and single
mindedneSS with which their predeces-
SorS treated the Crime Of ID" What diff
ference does it make whether cakes
and ale are a little dearer or a little
cheaper. if we are 10 be obliged to

THE FLAG AND WORLD PEACE.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: As all thoughtful persons must nave
noted. with the same pleasure as dlo' the
general display of our national flag on the
occasion of the conservation OF 81 rat
rick's Cathedral, permit me to cail especiai
attention to it. in the hope that chureh
members Of all other denominations VIII
follow the example of the Catholic Church
in similar cases.
More particularly would I urge this Tor
the reason that the congress at The hague
has quietly and unostentatiously proved 10
the world that serious differences between
antaconistic countries can be am1cabiy set
tied and the unspeakable horrors OF war
averted. In the days to come Mr.. Roose-
Welt will be far more remembered Tor MS
successful efforts in establishing good feel
ing between Russia and Japan than Tor MS
costly and unnecessary parade OF our naval
forces throughout the Atlantic and Pacinc
oceans Surely, America, one of the most
powerful nations In the world. can we'll
afford in the future to make our flag the
symbol of peace on earth and good VIII TO
men.
Let us fervently hope that the dawn OF
new era is at hand, when every one-nOt
onIy holy prelates and churchmen. but all
of u.s. Iaymen or otherwise-will unite III
banishing from the records of future MS
tory that relic of bacbarism, the adjustment
of international quarrels solely through the
medium Of war, a custom which has en-
tailed more misery. wretchedness and sur
fering than all the other evils we have
been unnecessarily forced to endure since
