A Piano for the
Children

What could make your home
brighter or more cheerful on
Christmas day than one of these
beautiful pianos! Whether it
be a brand new high grade pi-
ano, piano Of medium price or
a second hand piano. Take
that $500 or $1,000 that you
would probably spend on pres
ent that would soon be cast
aside and forgotten and make
the first payment on a piano. A
few dollars per month afterward
for a few months and you have
it paid for. The children then
have something which they real
ly need, something which is not
only a source of enjoyment and
pleasure, but the means through
which they may acquire the
highest of all art, Music. ANY
piano you may select will be
stored free of charge and de-
livered to you on Christmas
day.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: Why 90 we
I Stick our teaspoons in our teacups?
Throw our napkins the floor or table?
Drink with our mouths full Of food?
Butter our bread In the air and wave our
Knives while doing so?
Suspend forks in midair as articles
with which to punctuate our conversation? ?
Use our own knives to help our friends,
and frequently our forks we'll?
Wear an evening dress coat and black
tie. and low collar and a dinner jacket
with white waistcoat and a white tie. and
use heavy boots in both cases?
Talk loudly and invariably cut into the
conversation of our friends before they have
had time to finish the sentence they are en-
gagged upon?
Wear large hats that cut the faces of
those that come in contact with us. If the
eye of the unfortunate traveller is encoun-
tered by one OF the pins used in connection
with them il Is likely TO be perforated.
Would not change in the above absurd

To the Editor of The Tribune.
SIR. New York evening newspaper
bitterly opposed TO Colonel RooseYelt TOT
several weeks has been printing letter
from it's readers discussing the person
slitv of the colonel, Now and then oo-
viously to save appearances, a mlc oe-
fence of Roosevelt IS printed. But HiosI
of the essays indorsing the newspaper III

Billingsgate style, toned up little into me

Colonel Roosevelt "blathersklte ana
.'noIiticaI buccaneer." IT looks as II the
newspaper was hard put to il IN its hght
against Roosevelt when 1t gives space 10
stuff that outrages decency-
It Is very evident that the majority OF
the p1IbIicists who are denouncing Roose-
welt in the paper referred to are 'Neo-
Cleyelandists" The members of this pciitl-
cal sect, made up of the Cleveland old
guard have kept the name of Cleveland,
but have dropped from the original CleVe-
land creed a certain bit of wisdom uttered
by Grover Cleveland in 1Ss7-''It is con-
Cition which confronts us-not a theory!
The Neo-CIeveIandiSts have put into their
articles of faith that fine old fact or Bour-
bonism, expressed: We forget nothing
and learn nothing.
All the charges made by the Neo-Cieve-
landists against Colonel Roosevelt can be
boiled down to this one count: He has
changed his mind about some things The
Neo-Clevelandists hold that il is a crime
to change ones mind. 1t is the fatal habit
of Neo-Clevelandism TO stand still and look
backward all the time
So this contingent of letter writer's, in the
manner of near-schoias sticisn, makes great
ado of quibbling about what Roosevelt was
years ago. But the people arc not listening
to the Neo-Clevelandists. The people are
taken up with the Roosevelt of to-day.

TAXING HIS COWMISSION.

1t is doubtless true. as the special cor
respondent of The New York Evening
Post reports. that ''at Rochester al
incompetent boss. wholly destitute of
craftsmanship. tried to run things, with
.-the result of putting in the field a weak
ticket. aside from the candidate for
Governor" But, however incompetent
Mr. Murphy may seem. to supporter
like THE Evening Post" in the matter
of craftsmanship. he is by no means ln-
competent in the matter of business, as
scrutiny Of the business end of his ticket
will make clear The two most i'm
portant offices in the state, from tue
noint of view of a business man and con-
tractor like Mr. Murphy are the Con
trolIer and the State Engineer. and Mr..
Murphy carefully kept these places for
himself.
Mr.. Murphys activities in connection
with the State Engineers Office are al
ready a matter of record 1t will he re-
called that a few weeks ago. when the
last Democratic State Engineer was On
trial for grand larceny. his counsel, who
secured his acouittal, openly charged In
court that a subordinate of the State
Engineer was an accOmplice in the cor
ruption which cOnfessedly existed, that
he was placed in the office by Charles
+. Murphy and that he was the "c"i-
lector for Tammany." Mr.. Murphy Is
no longer 10 be content with subor-
dinates. He has picked his old associate
of the Dock Department to he state
Engineer and to have hand in the
drawing of plans and specifications for
the great canal Improvement work.
Then he has picked for his chief financial
officer Of the state another loyal Tam
many man, no other than the treasurer
Of the Tammany Society itself. Mr
Sohmpr is a chronic Tammany Office
holder. whose services in the Legislature
are characterized by The Evening
Posts Voters Directory for 1897 rs
having been "marred by subservience TO
T8mmany dictstion."
All accounts from Rochester agree that
Mr.. Murphy was the absolute master Of
the convention. and il is clear that he
did not fail to take his own commission
for his work. \ reform ticket OF
course. could not safely be headed by
profesSed Tammany man. but Mr..
Murphy was perfectly ready to make all
necessary concessions TO respectability II
he could secure for himself the real
power over the finances and business
operations of the state. No wonder the
correspondent of The Evening Post
finds the ticket weak" IT must prove
weak unless the plain people outside of
this CITY have become reconciled to the
establishment at Albany Of the methods
of finance and contracting which Tam
many has made SO notorious here.
