,ditor of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: In your Washington correspondence
yesterday the announcement is made that
nothing car be done In the way of en-
larging the docks at New York. in an
article speaking Of the needs of docks for
the big battseships being built and author
lied Rear Admiral Hollyday, chief of the
Bureau of Yards and Docks, made sim
liar statement before the House Naval
Committee last week, and according to
these two statements the outlook is bad,
with the only dock on the Atlantic Coast
which may be extended located at Norfolk
Far be il from me. a layman, to question
the authoritative statements of either the
rear admiral or your correspondent. but
from an acquaintance with the navy yard
In Brooklyn. extending over some years,
may I suggest that revision OF the state
ments would do no harm If based on the
following facts:
While Rear Admiral Hollyday was talk
ing, plans were being perfected. and are
now completed, except in some details, for
enarging the dock now under construc-
tion-No. 4-by at least $50 feet, extending
1t up to near the line of Morris avenue in
the navy yard and giving dock about 800
feet long. Its width can be extended at
least twenty feet without interfering with
the 9TH street wall of the great machine
shop. giving dock capable of taking in
anything likely to be afioat for war pur-
poses for some years.
Drydock No. .. the Older of the two
wooden docks, is now having its slopins
walls at the entrance sheared to almost a
perpendicular. giving an increased entering
width of approximately twenty feet. The
length of this dock can be increased one
hundred feet or more II necessary, at COM
paratively slight expense. Its width would
have to be increased on the right side, tow
ard the shops. and this might be costly, as
it would require taking down the side wall
and driving new piIing. but the cost would
not approach that of a new dock
Drydock No. 5. IL needed. could have it's
present sloping walls made much straight
er, and as it is now plenty wide enough
from coping 10 coping, the increased floor
width would permit docking much larger
ship than is possible now. Its length, as
with No. p right alongside. can be- in
creased, but not so much as in the case of
Its companion.
Docks for tho big ships are almost as i'm
portant as the ships themselves, for the
ships cannot stay afioat indefinitely and be
effective; but the possibilities of the Now
York yard are by no means exhausted as
one might be led to believe from the re-
marks alluded TO.
Some years ago Rear Admiral Asserson.

Respondent who complained of the III con-
sidered aid given TO the shirtwaist strikers
by equal franchise women" that all equal
franchise women are not of the same mind.
The strikers have real grievances. and IL
Is true that women workers. with the ex-
ception of domestic servants, are far from
being overpaid. Nevertheless. i'm so far as
they stand for the closed shop. they repre-
sent tyranny. All combinations. whether of
capital or labor that interfere with the lib

vidual are tyrannous.
II is ridiculous for a labor union. or any
member thereof. to inveigh against trusts.
The unions as now operated. are trusts in
every sense of the word and are much
in need of regulation as any combination

side. that is all.
We are all beginning to see tnat while

OPPOSED TO DISARMAMENT.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: l have seen some letters in papers in
favor Of taking clubs and nightsticks from
policemen on night duty. Those persons
who want a policeman to go around this
city at night with no club to defend him
self know nothing about New York. espe-
cially at night. Policemen at night with no
clubs would entice every low ruffian TO
abuse and beat them TO death. In fact.
such a change would encourage all kinds Of
criminals.
Those persons who advocate policemen
going without clubs at night should take
walk over to Tenth and Eleventh avenue.
from soth to eOth street. between the hours
of II at night and o'clock next morning.
Every night in this city may be found the
lowest and meanest brutes living. The only
thing they fear is policeman's nightsttck.
But they don't get 1t often enough.
Go down to Ellis Island any day, and
there you Will see a thousand people being
landed. Half of them are only half civil
ized animals in the shape Of men and
women from Southern Europe. Indeed.
many of them take liberty as license TO
steal rob and even murder!
We have eight thousand policemen in this
city and 1t must be expected that some will
make mistakes and use their clubs too
much We want more good. sensible. hon
est police officers. Let them have their
clubs at night. II they do wrong or make
mistakes hold them accountable But il
nightsticks are taken from them, then We
might as we'll have no policemen.

A NEGRO EXPOSITION.

The interest and novelty of the pro-
negro exposition in 1913, in commemora-
ton of the fiftieth anniversary of the
Emancipation Proclamation. are OBJ
vious. 1t would be the first undertaking
of the kind in history. 1t might be of
commanding proportions. in view of the
numbers of the race and Of the wealth
and achievements of many of it's mem
bers. That it would command wide
spread curiosity and a large degree of
sympathy and well wishing may be
taken as granted. No doubt there is
sufficient ability, constructive and ad-
ministrative. in the negro race to ex-
ecute the plans and to conduct the
enterprise. And the anniversary in
question will be worthy of important
celebration from all points of view.
Ii would seem desirable however, for
the scheme of an exposition TO be care
fully considered before IL is irrevoca bly
adopted. The feeling is pretty wide
spread. we think, that expositions have
been rather too frequent in the last
third of century, and that some other
form of commemoration of great events
would be desirable. Moreover, there is
talk of an exposition at some place in
honor of the completion of the Panama
Canal and at the present rate of prog
ress it should be timely not very long
after the anniversary of emancipation.
and it would be unfortunate TO have
them in any way conflict. There is
also to be considered the possibility of
failure. and Of the consequent reflection
upon the negro race. A highly sue
cessful exposition would doubtless i'm
prove the races standing in the eyes
of the world. But suppose it should
not be successful, as some other recent
eXpositions have not been? The injury
would be far greater than would be the
gain from successful affair
III Is necessary, also, in connection
with the forecasting of success or fail
ure, 10 consider what might be the at
iitude toward it of a large part of the
American people. We have said that
many would be sympathetic. Unfort-
unately il is just as certain that MANY
would be openly antagonistic-th
who denounce Tuskegee as an evil in
stitution and decry all education and
progress for the negro-while many
others, probably, would be Indifferent or
would lack the courage OF their sym
patbies. and while they wished the en-
terprise well would be morally afraid
Ia lend il active cOuntenance. These
things are said not by way OF dis.
enlargement. but in order that the mat
ter may be thoroughly considered and
weighed and that no action NAV hn
taken without ample recognition Of all
phases Of the case. Whatever is de-

A HUGHES DEMOCRAT.

Those who are casting about for
Democratic candidate for Governor next
fall are bestowing attention on the Hon.
Thomas NJ. Osborne. of Auburn, who has
just resigned his $4,000 Office Of Public
Service Commissioner TO become head Of
the Democratic League. The argument
for Mr.. Osborne's availability is similar
TO that which brought about the nomi-
nation of Lieutenant Governor Chanler
in 1908. Mr. Chanler had openly pro-
fessed his admiration for Governor
Hughes. and he had once saved the day
for one of the Governors measures in
the Senate by his vote upon a parla
mentary motion. He was Hughes
Democrat" Mr.. Osborne has held an
important appointive Office under the
Governor, and he might go before the
people as Hughes Democrat
But how much availability as sup
porter OF the Governor is left to Mr..
Osborne now that he has become the
head of movement which has refused
to indorse the Governors plan for direct
primaries? The real issue between the
Governor and those opposing him will
be this year, as it was last year, pri-
mary reform and the league with
which Mr.. Osborne has associated him
self is ready to support just about the
same measure Of direct nominations that
State Chairman Woodruff now favors.
Mr.. Osborne. If he stands with his
league. is as good Hughes man on this
question as Mr.. Woodruff is. and no bet
ter Whatever force he and his league
have In politics will be exercised to pre-
vent the adoption of a complete system
of direct nomina tons to which the Gov
ernor is committed, and in favor of
partial system, which the Governors
opponents are now prepared to accept.
OF course. tie declaration of the
league may not accord with Mr.. Os-
borne's personal views. He may favor
a statewide system of direct primaries.
II he does, he should seize the earliest
opportunity TO speak out. Otherwise, If
he should come before the public next
fall as Hughes man. he would be
likely to be embarrassed by his record.
If the people should be seeking to rebuke
the Republican party for it's failure to
support the Governor on primary reform
the condition which would give the
Democracy its best chance at the COM
ing state election-the Hon. Thomas NJ
Osborne. in the position in which his
league places him, would not be an in
strument OF rebuke ready for its hands
