Changes in New York.
Perhaps the most significant chang
ca which have been made since last
week are in New York. Last week
thirteen Republican districts in New
York were doubtful, giving Democrats
and Republicans each twelve districts
reasonably sure.
The Herald this week gives sixteen
districts reasonably sure to the DEM
ocrats, fourteen districts reasonably
sure to the Republicans while seven
districts which are Republican, now
are classified as doubtful.
These changes have been due larg-
" to conditions prevailing in New
York strongly resembling those in the
campaign Of 1882, when Grover Cleve-
land (Democrat), defeated Charles F.
Folger (Republican) by nearly 100000
plurality. At the same time Demo-
Gratis elected twenty members Of the
house, and thirteen were Republican.
The changes that have been made
are taking the Thirteenth. Fifteenth
and Nineteenth districts in Manhat-
tan out Of the doubtful column, CIV
ing the Thirteenth district, now rep
resented by Herbert Parsons, to the
Democrats the Fifteenth, represent
ed by j. v. v. Olcott. to the Democrats
and the Nineteenth, Represented by

sIxTY.FOUR DOUBTFUL DISTRICTS
NOW REPRESENTED BY REPUBLICANS
To Control the Next House the Re.
publicans Must Garry Fifty.Eight Of
the Doubtful Dfstricts-Democrats
Need Eight Republican Districts.

New York, Oct. 19.-The New York
Herald this morning says in its Sec
ond weekly forecast Of the congress
sional elections:
Still the Democratic flood rises.
With varying fortunes, the tremend-
Gus contest for supremacy in the next
house Of representatives progresses.
The fighting all along the line from
incessant, but with each survey Of the
field Democrats seem to have the best
Of II.
Much Of the disadvantage the party
in power suffers from is due to the
fact that there is q new leader in the
field openly seeking to displace his
former friend. President Taft. as the
leader Of the party, and conducting q
thinly disguised effort to nominate
himself for president in 1912.
No party can undergo such an ex-
perience and win battles. This 10 the
consensus Of all thoughtful men fig
uring on the result.
Outlook for Parties.
The Herald forecast this week
shows that there are now 161 districts
reasonably sure for the Democrats.
against 141 q week ago; 40 districts
reasonably sure for the Republicans
against 1872 last week, and that the
number OF doubtful districts has been.
reduced from 11S to 80. OF these dis
tricts sixty-four are now Republican
and twenty-six Democratic.
To get majority Of the house the
Democrats have to win thirty-five Of
these doubtful districts. the Repub-
licans nifty eight. This is the prob
lem confronting the congressional
committees Of the two parties.

LOEB FOR GOVERNOR.

As matters now stand William Loeb.
jr.. * the choice OF the New York Re-
publicans as their candidate for gov
ernor. This is probably a happy solu-
ton OF difiicult situation. Mr.. Loeb
is popular with all factions of the
Republican party. and the independent
voters and Democrats think well Of
him.
Owing to the strenuousness OF the
President. Mr.. Loeb was constantly
used as a buffer when private secre-
tary. and made to stand for many
things for which he was not respon-
sibie. and he was Inundated more
than once. At the same time a lower
estimate was placed upon the value
Of his services than he deserved.
Since becoming collector Of the port
OF New York Mr.. Loeb has shown
what he can do when placed in a posi-
ton Of responsibility. and his fame as
an efficient executive officer has
spread throughout, the length and
breadth of the land.
Mr.. Loeb developed I'm the position
Of secretary TO the President. just as
Dan Lamont developed, and. like the
secretary Of President Cleveland. has
won recognition by sheer force Of
ability.
BY all odds Mr.. Loeb is the most
available candidate the Republicans
Of New York can nominate. Not only
is he available. but the Democrats
couldn't beat him in a thousand years.

THE GOULD FAMILY.

Frank Could and his former wife,
Helen Kelly Gould. have both remar-
ried and a new agreement regarding
the disposition OF their children will
have TO be made.
We are not going to try 60 place
the blame for the failure of the first
marriage on each OF these individuals
to produce happiness. although it is
probable that while there was an un-
limited amount Of money in <he fami-
~ there was a lack OF horse sense.
Perhaps Helen Gould is justified in
remaining in a state of single blessed
ness when she considers the mess in
which her sister Anna has been in

eminent OF Great Britain. has been
lost, the Mexicans feel called upon to
celebrate just the same.
But the so-called Mexican declara-
ton OF independence wasn't declara-
ton of Independence. after all II
was merely a decree issued Septem-
Der 81. signed by Augustin Iturbide.
who afterward became the first en-
peror.
The Mexicans are celebrating their
centennial this year. when, as a matter
Of fact. the revolution started by Hi
dalgo. the patriot priest, on septem-
Der Is, 1910, was not a revolt against
Spain. but against the vice-regai gov
eminent of Mexico and against the
Bonaparte usurpers Of the Spanish
throne, when Napoleon put his brother
Joseph at the head OF the Spanish
kingdom This revolution was crushed
In 1915.
In 1890 a second revolution broke
out. headed by Augustin Iturbide and
an Indian by the name OF Guerrero.
and all the parties became united.
Iturbide, possessing the influence Of
the church, was the central figure
and became the real liberator Of Mex
leo. but the nation has really been IN
dependent only eighty-nine years.
and the celebration OF the centenary
is fully eleven years too soon.
Indeed. so far as real. Independence
Is concerned. the celebration might
well be postponed until after the death
OF Diaz, who, once elected president,
has never allowed the people a fair
and free election since. There is a
celebration coming shortly in Mexico,
outside OF the centennial, but the pro-
gram has not been announced.

THE SUPREME COURT.

1t is possible that President Taft
viii call an extraordinary session OF
the United States Senate for the pur-
pose Of confirming appointments OF
justices to the Supreme court. The
trust cases have been set for October
before a full BENCH but as the
bench Is not full there is no Likelihood
Of the argument being heard at that
time unless an extra session is called
and the vacant places on the bench
filled.
Wall street is guessing on account
OF these same appointments. Presi-
dent Taft, being a jurist as well as a
statesman, is not susceptible Of In
fluence-" The men appointed to the
Supreme bench will be chosen on ac-
count Of their knowledge of the law
in general. and they will not be re-
quired TO subscribe TO any certain doc
trine in advance OF their appointment
and confirmation.
It has been claimed that the Su-
preme court was evenly divided, to
4. on the Standard OIL and American
Tobacco cases, Justice Moody being i'll
and not participating In the delibera-
tons.
II would serve no good purpose 20
guess as to the attitude of the late
Chief Justice Fuller or the late Jus
tice Brewer-they may have been on
different sides OF the question. but II
is by no means certain. The thing to
be considered is that the Supreme
court is to be practically reconstructed
before the important antitrust deci-
sions are handed down.

Ion regarding the origin, treatment
and liability of contagion Of leprosy.
A year or so ago John Early, who had
been a soldier in the Philippines. was
declared to be afflicted with leprosy
by the medical authorities Of WASH
ington. ID. c.
Early was isolated in a tent for
nearly a year on the outskirts of the
District of Columbia. his wife and
child being allowed to communicate
with him only from afar off. Finally
New York specialist induced the
government officials to allow an exam
ination OF the alleged leper at Bellevue
hospital, as a result of which Early
was declared every whit whole 80 far
as ieprosy was concerned.
The Washington authorities were
not convinced by the diagnosis of the
New York specialist, and when Early
returned he was again arrested, but
subsequently set at liberty. and he is
living. probably under an assumed
name, somewhere in the United States
today
So far as this paper is concerned It
is not in favor OF taking any chances.
Leprosy may or may not be conta-
gious disease. II may originate from
any one Of the dozen different causes
assigned. II may or may not be cura-
BILE. Victims should be ISOLATED Just
as they always have been. and we will
be on the safe side.

SOCIAL INSANITY

The social element of .cOlored
Americans in this city has gone
insane. The lily whites and the
lily blacks are making faces at
one another. Never before was
such a hold on so many social
vampires. The Bee would sug-
gest, for the good Of the COM
munity that the different social
factions save their money until It
reaches a sum sufficient to build
an institution for a reformation
of their condition. Many OF
these dress parades are menaces
to society. In short, bands OF
social insane satellites are permit
ting themselves to become broke
to keep up social functions while
the masses are worried over their
poverty. The lily whites are
hiding behind door screens 20
keep from the lily blacks. The
lily blacks are worried because
they are not recognized by the
these social insanes. If the light
was turned on some of these in
dividuals, what a scene would be
exposed. St. Elizabeth has plen-
tv of room for the social in
Sanes.

Z. Shepard, of Durham, n. c.,
meet with such a reception as is
reported in The Times-Courier,
of Jacksonville, Fla.
The lecture on Egypt, deliver
ed last week in Florida was re
ceived by the people with admir-
alton. DR.. Shepard is a good
writer as we'll as a good speaker.
There is no man in this country
any more honored and respected
than this we'll known young
Southern Educator. The school
that he is building in Durham, n
C., is said will be a great monu-
ment to the colored Americans
in the South. His reception in

PROF. KELLY MILLER

Howard University should
ieel Justly proud of Prof. Kelly
Miller. because he is a man who
IS ever ready to defend the in
stitution as we'll as the race tc
which he is identified. Prof
Miller is not only a writer OF
force but he is a speaker OF un-
questionable ability. The col
lege department, ,indeed,all OF the
departments, with but one ex-
ception of this institution will
compare as favorably with any
in any college in this country.
MISS BOURROUGHS SOUTH
Elsewhere in The Bee will be
seen and read with interest the
tour of Miss Mamie H. Bour-
roughs through the South. 1t
is indeed, gratifying to know that
this we'll known young woman
has bearded the lion in his
den. There is is no woman IN
this country who is doing great
er work for her women than Miss
Bourroughs. Her ovation IN
the South, from all reports, is
most remarkable. The Bee con-
graduates her on the successful
tour that she has made in the
land of sunshine and flowers.
