To the Editor of the Evening Star: j.
Noticed in your issue of the 14tn tnat

Essex Park Commission propose to give
the poor immigrant a treat by gladden.
ing his seaweary eyes with the sight
of a flag on Eagle Rock. The poor I'M
migrant could get a lamp on george
Cohan's trademark long before he
knew Miss Liberty by sight. That
would have to be some flag.
Eagle Rock is the choicest bit OF
natural beauty in this section, and to
permit it to be defaced by a lumber
some steel pole would be an outrage
and a reflection on the love of beauty
and the good taste of the people OF
Essex county. The poor immigrant
would be more interested in trying to
find little Heinie and where is Rosie
about that time, anyway, and the only
people to pick UP the flag would be
the cabin passengers who happened te
possess binoculars, and to them il
would only seem another example OF
American bombast. Why not do il
right and put an electric sign, wei

AMERICAN DIPLOMACY AND INTERESTS.

TIT is suspected that the attacks upon Secretary Knox on the
IIA ground that the diplomatic and consular service had been used
to obtain financial and commercial favors from foreign cOun-
fries for the benefit of private interests in the United States are
inspired by interests that have failed to get a share OF the alleged
benefits. Secretary Knox stood out for a share of the Chinese rail
way loan, and got il for American capitalists against the opposition
Of diplomats in Europe. Back of that loan are immense commercial
advantages for the countries represented in it. The development
of China has just begun. 1t will demand enormous quantities of
all kinds of material, and it will open immense markets for trade.
The moneylenders will control development and dictate where the
material shall be bought. 1t is of no Importance as to what group
Of American capitalists takes the American share of the loan. 1t
is enough to know that American trade will get the benefits. Sec
rotary Knox is charged with using diplomatic means to secure the
two big Brazilian batthship contracts for American firms, truly
IN awful charge. TO the ordinary citizen it would appear that the
secretary of state is using the diplomatic service in the best pos
sihle WY.

N WHY NOT. pRAY2

1t is now proposed that former
President Roosevelt, upon his re-
turn from Africa, be drafted into
service as leader of the American
expedition in search of the South
Pole. This is of the few things
no one had thought of before.
He has been proposed for the gov
ernorship of New York, for the Sen
ate, for Congress, for the presi-
dency of Harvard and for other po-
sitions too numerous to mention.
We wish to offer as our contribu-
ton to this collection of spheres of
acti-ity. in case a vacancy such as
has been limited at occurs there,
that he be made superintendent at
Overlook.
This is merely a suggestion. of
course, but as a free American citi-
zen we have a constitutional right
to make it.

LEGISLATIVE TINE WASTED.

5ITa HERE is not The slightest possibility of any action by the
Legislature favorable to local option. Why, then, should
legislative committees waste in useless hearings the time
needed at this session for real and urgent business? In the legs
Iative elections last fall local option cut no figure except in half
Il dozen country districts. Ninetenths of the voting population
either paid no attention to the subject or defeated candidates who
had localoption affiliations. If the election had developed any
thing like a sentiment in the State to justify the Legislature to take
the subject up hearings would be in order, but, on the contrary,
the general sentiment, as shown in the primaries and election, was
that local option was not desired. But other things are desired
by the people They have in nearly $50 voting districts of the State
VOICED the demand for the abolition of the voting machine. There
is no doubt about that sentiment. Legislation is asked for against
the Combinations that rob the people in their food supplies. Relief
from telephone extortion is asked. The people petition for pro-
lection against the abuses of the coldstorage system. There are
many practical things the Legislature can do, instead of frittering
away time on Il question it doesn't intend to take up in legislation.

A DEEPER PROBE AT ALBANY.

TT INVESTIGATION Of legislative crookedness at Albany in the
past expands, in spite of the investigators. 1t was with
marked reluctance that the New York Senate began it's in
qury into the charges against Senator lothian =. Aids, the ex
pectation being that the charges would peter out and the affair
blow over. So serious did the investigation become in its aspects
for the party in power that a Macedonian cry went to Washing
ton for the presence of Taft in New York. But the infamed public
mind could not be diverted from Albany, and now the legislative
leaders propose to take the bull by the horns by instituting a joint
committee investigation. with power to inquire into any and all
charges of corruption and to sit in any part of the State. A drag
net well used cannot fail to bring to light many cases of corrupt
dealings in legislation at Albany. The doings of the "Black Horse
Cavalry of infamous repute have been well known in and around
the Albany State House, and have been a frequent theme of news
lmIpr discussion. But Albany is not the only State capital where
corruption in past years can be revealed. If the lid of legislation
in the past at Trenton could be removed the odors arising there
from might offend the nostris of the State.

ROOSEVELT FOR THE ANTARCTIC.

m PROPOSITION received with enthusiasm at Washington is
Vl\ that Theodore Roosevelt be the leader of the Antarctic ex-
petition to be sent from the United States next fall. The
expedition, ii is calculated, will be absent two years. which would
about cover the time prior 10 the next presidential election. Then,
too there are all the perils of drowning, or freezing, or starving
10 death, or being marooned in the Antarctic solitudes, hopeless
of rescue, besides the chances of dying of disease. Roosevelt in
the Antarctic wouldn't be available as a candidate for the dis
grnntled element of the Republican party. The spectre of a Roose-
vclCcandidacy that sat at the Waldorf banquet board last Satur-
day might would be exercised. There have been hopes that the
lions and tigers and other savage beasts Of the African jungles
would dispose of the possibility of a Roosevelt candidacy in 1912,
but The man of destiny is now emerging from the iungles unframed,
and he is due in the United States in the spring. The Antarctic
expedition is an inspirations. OF course, Roosevelt will accept.
But if he does, how awkward it would be if he returned, bringing
the South Pole with hin right on the eve of the Republican national
convention Wouldn't that be awful!

AUTO TAXES FOR JOBS AND SALARIES.

TT I is now proposed To begin eating up the automobile license
tax receipts in salaries, if a bill introduced in the Legis
lature shall be passed. The commissioner of motor vehicles
is Assistant Secretary of State Smith. He gets $4,000 as assistant
secretary and 81 800 as motor vehicle commissioner The chief
Inspector gets 1000 a year. The bill would give him $500. The
inspectors get $3 per day. The bill gives them 1850 a year. It
is proposed to more than double the force of inspectors. at 81, 800.
each in salary. The present cost of the motor vehicle department
is nearly $4,000 Il year. Automobiles who pay the license tax
are not disposed TO see their money go to make political jobs and
fatten official salaries. They want the money spent on the roads.
They should keep a sharp eye on this salaryraising and Office
sreating bill at their expense.

Professor Lowell, from his observ-

He !. sarcastic.

TO tho Editor of TIE Evening Star:
The proverbial good judgment of the
management of the Public Service Rail-
way Company is conspicuously dis
played in its latest manifestation. In
a frantic effort to conceal it's lack of
cars it has withdrawn many from the
most unimportant, least used line, the
Broad. 1t is well known that traffic
on Clinton avenue, Broad street and
Belleville n Washington is
inconsiderable. Hardly anybody travels
on the Broad line, whereas it is high
ly important that the Kearny and Kin
hey lines be perfection. 1 think the
P. S. r. should go still further in its
efforts to please. 1t should Il cars
on the Broad line on a half-hour head
way, so that Kearny folks might be
still better served.

There is some justice in the state
ments by Mr.. Antonio Petrone, Of New
ark, to the State Charities Conference
at Trenton that aliens do not get eve
and exact justice in. the criminal courts
in this State. The reason is not inten-
ton. but largely ignorance n laxity
in the administration of the law. Aliens
who do not know the language or speak
it very imperfectly are always at a dis
advantage in the criminal courts. The
law should see to 1t that no man shall
suffer injustice because of his imperfect
knowledge of the language, of the law
and of his own legal rights.

some experience with poll taxes. Real

assessed, but only after their ages were
ascertained, The annoyance of the tax

The citizens of Ocean Grove could not
get a Legislative representative of their
own county to introduce a bill, even by
request, for a municipal charter for the
town, and they had to enlist the serv-
Ices of a Democratic assemblyman from
Hudson county. What kind of terror
ism is 1t that the Monmouth legislators
are subjected to that they dare not act
in a representative capacity for an i'm
portant part'of the people OF, their coun-
ty? That question should be put, and
loudly, in the Legislature.
An additional wing for the Soldiers
Home at Kearny is necessary. With
increasing age and infrmity among
veterans the applications for admission
to the home increase and more room Ii
necessary. 1t won't be long before
there will be plenty of room in the
soldiers homes, but for a few years g
constant increase must be looked fol
and provided for. The Legislature
cannot neglect to make the provision
asked.
