THURSDAY EVENING. MARCH 81, 1910.
FITS INFLUENCE IN THIS YEARS ELECTIONS.

m POPULAR President who has gratifed the people of the
IN country by acts OF his administration is a tower of strength
to his political party. a President who has made himself
unpopular. O II whose popularity has seriously waned, is no help to
his party in elections. Quite the reverse. Roosevelt was popular
in 1908, and as a result Taft received an immense majority of the
votes cast in the November election. If Taft was equally popular
now the Republican party managers would have reason to feel
fsecure about the elections this year. That he isn't as popular as
he was as a candidate is too evident for discussion. To what extent
his popularity has waned can hardly be gagged. If the recent cleo
ton in the Massachusetts congress district can be taken as evil
dence, Mr.. Taft has experienced an extraordinary loss of faith
by the voters of the country. This feeling as to the President, if it
is not radically changed before November, will be a potent factor
in all the State and congressional elections, supplementing the feel
ing aroused by the tariff trick played upon the country, by excessive
prices for necessaries and the exposures of corruption in public
Office. Is it not within the range of probability that before his term
ends Taft will be stigmatized by men of his own party as a party
wrecker?'f

Objects to Posters.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
While an effort is apparently under
way to suppress the indecent poster
and the poster that depicts crime in
an alluring way to youthful minds, let
me call your attention to another
phase of the poster nuisance. During
the last three or four days there have
appeared on the billboards of the city,
booming a play. certain pictorial rep
reservations that to my mind are de-
cidedly sa%crilegious. These pictures are
evidently meant to represent the Son
of God and are used in a way that
might appeal to the religiously inclined
under other circumstances and in other
places. But on theatrical posters, save
the mark! RlCHARD.

how about the other outlying sections
that remain uncovered? Those that 1t
is proposed to benefit are the people of
Forest Hill, Clinton Hill and Vailsburg.
What's the matter with like protection
for Roseville? That is certainly quite
as important a section as any of the
three named. Do the authorities realize
this?

TO Protect Young Women.

To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
Here's a tip for the New Jersey legis-
lators, if it is not too late. l see that
a bill has peer introduced in the Legis-
lature of the Empire State prohibiting
any business college from undertaking
to obtain employment for girls under
IS years, unless the prospective m
ployer is known to them. The bill was
prompted by the Ruth Wheeler tragedy.
AS there may be a Wolter lurking in
this State, let us do what can be done
to save our Ruth Wheelers. If innocent
girls are forced to work for a living,
let them be guarded from the sharks
that are seeking their prey in the sea
of business. B. W. r.

.pure Food, and Ptomalnes.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Sir-I saw in your March 20 Issue
that Peter Contorney died, n of a
number of men and women of Glen
Lyon, who were made i'll by ~partaking
of food in which poisonous ptomaines
had developed. 1t is certainly appal-
ing to learn how rapidly ptomaine
poisoning cases have increased since
the enforcement of the pure food law.
According to press dispatches, there
have been in the United States since
the enforcement of this law 1875 cases
of ptomaine poisoning, $50 of which
were fatal. Prior to the enactment
of the pure food Law borax and boron
compounds were used on meat, fish,
fowl, sausage, oysters, ETC., conse-

RECIPROCITY WITH CANADA.

IT'D ECIPROCITY between the United States and Canada is most
Inn desirable, and if the tariff agreement just made, to the great
benefit of Canada, shall have opened the way to that con-
summation it may be hailed as a blessing in disguise. Two coun-
tries so close together and having SO many common ties should
properly dispense with custom houses and tariff rates for their
mutual good. We want Canadian products and Canada wants ours.
We need the benefit of the development of Canada's vast natural
resources, and we should get it free of duty, and we need, also, the
free Canadian market for the products of our factories. Time was,
in colonial days, when the colonies set up tariffs against each other.
The Federal Constitution ended that. There is little more logic in
a tariff wall between the United States and Canada.

A LELSURELY LEGISLATIVE COMMITTEE.

eTa HE simple fact is that the special committee of senators and
assemblymen appointed at the legislative session last year
to investigate the economies of the public schools of the
State hasn't done any investigating to amount to anything, and,
therefore, hasn't got anything ineligible to report to the present
Legislature. Senator Frelinghuysen, as one of the committee, has
procured an extension of time for another year, but if the COM
mittee is as listless in its second year as it was in its first there
will be nothing to report to the Legislature of 1911 but progress"
There is no particular obligation upon a legislative special com.
mittee to work during a recess. In nearly every case the summer
and early fall are wasted, and no meeting is held until after the
November election. An inquiry such as that undertaken by the
special committee on school economies, to have any value, requires
careful and diligent work for several months.

A PERFECTLY PLAIN SITUATION.

TT Asst year the whole State was exercised over the attempt by
In the Hudson County Water Company, a subsidiary of the
East Jersey Water Company, to lay pipes under the Kill Won
kul to divert well water out of New Jersey. The Governor, the
attorney general. the courts and the State Riparian Board all took
action, and a special session of the Legislature was demanded.
This was found to be unnecessary. The water company was held
under restraint until the Legislature of 1910 could meet and act.
The Legislature met early in January. The House long ago passed
the McCran bill. ~forbidding the diversion of well water. That bill
has since been held up in the Senate, with the evident purpose to
Kill it or force in it an amendment prepared by the attorneys for
the water company to make the bill, if passed, invalid. There
is no mystery in this case for the people of the State. They know
the influences at work. They have had many experiences of the
water snake. They understand the situation.

HORMER Senator Colby is a lawyer. He is now an attor.
ney for the Hudson County Water Company, and has ap-
peared at Trenton in opposition to the McCran waterdiver-
sion bill He pleaded before the legislative committees for the
amendment to the bill giving an exclusive right to the company to
divert water. Governor Fort asserts in his special message that
the company had been advised by its own counsel that the amend
ment would make the McCran bill unconstitutional, and yet the
fcompanys attorneys continued to advocate it. Now the query
nkcurs, did not Mr.. Colby know, when he argued at Trenton in
T3e1f Of incorporating the amendment in the bill that by so doing
the bill would be made unconstitutional? Did he lend himself to
a sharp trick upon the Legislature and the people of the State :?
If be was not let into the secret by his legal associates in the service
of the water company, he knows now that he was bamboozled.
Under such circumstances a conscientious lawyer would withdraw
from the case But Mr. Colby hasn't withdrawn. He has con-
tinued to support the amendments. The presumption is, there
fore, that he knew the amendment was a trick.

on Tuesday $4,000 shad were landed, the largest catch on
record. The season for Delaware river shad, the most succulent

promise of an unusual abundance in the Delaware. There is no
more palatable fish than the shad, and the purchaser of the Chesa-

The Pennsylvania Railroad terminal
for passenger traffic. now at Jersey
City, will be transferred under river
and underground to Thirty-third street,
Manhattan, in June. The traveller
bound for New York will 10 longer
disembark at Jersey City, to be toted
across the ferry. He will be ticketed
right through to the heart of Man
haitian. If he is bound for New Eng
land he will, at al early day, be car
ried underground across Manhattan
and the East river. At Thirty-third
street he will find the largest under
ground railroad station in the world,
with a capacity for a hundred trains,
and fitted with all kinds of con-
veniences. When the rapid transit
electric line for Newark is completed
Newark will have direct and quick con-
nection with Thirty-third street, and
later, after the McAdoo branch from
Thirty-third street to the Grand Cen
trail is built, with the marlborough
subway for w~estchester county and
the Bronx. It's a great and wonderful
improvement now about to be opened
to the public.

Halley's comet is a "portent of VIC
tory for votes for women. Her au-
thority is astrology. Why not wait,

ton and understanding that wastes
so much s~uffragette energy?
If voters are compelled to go to reg
istry places to register one week before
a primary election in order to be ELI
gible to vote, there will be a very large
reduction of the primary vote, and the
voters excluded will be of the class
that ought to be there. A bill for this
purpose was passed by the Assembly
last night. 1t is in the nature of a
restriction upon the rights of voters.
1t is another step in the regulation Of
the electorate to discourage voting.
All the female suffrage organizations
in New York have backed a proposed
constitutional amendment to take the
word male out of the New York State
constitution, and the Assembly judi
ciary committee at Albany cold-blood-
eddy refuses eve to report the amend
ment. Could there be a greater provo
cation for a suffragette pilgrimage to
Albany and an assault. English style,
upon the halls of legislation?
Here at the tail end of the session
is an act introduced in the Senate by
Mr.. Geb1ardt for the ratification of the
proposed income tax amendment. Its
appearance at this stage has the aspect
of a joke.
It's the last chance of some of the
legislators at Trenton to legislate, and
evidently they have a consciousness of
that fact and are making the most
of the chance.
