Says newark Hotel. Are "A Disgrace

Says Newark Hotels Are a Disgrace.
To the Editor OF the Evening Star:
I noticed in the EVENING STAR
some days ago a statement to the eff
fect that Newark is greatly handi-
capped in many respects by the lack
of proper hotel accommodations, and at
least one large convention that this
city could have had was turned down
because the hotels here are unable to
cope with any but the transient guests.
Let me add another word to this
hotel question. 1 have been living for
some time at one of the hotels in our
city that is supposed TO be pretty
good, but in a travelling experience that
covers many years and that has taken
me to all parts of the country / have
never encountered such poor accom-
modations as one gets at this supposed
1y high-ciass hotel.
The room alone costs $3.50 a day,
meals being extra. During the chilly
days of the last two weeks there has
not been any heat in the room at any
time. The room is not kept clean and
the bed-iinen IS renewed at such times
as IL seems to suit the convenience of
the proprletors. One small electric light
is all hat is in the room, and this
small bulb has not cen wiped off in
months, Soap is never furnished and
matches are entirely beyond reach.
AZ call for iceSwater must be repeat
ed two or three times to receive at
tention and the general service Is the
worst L ever encountered. Yet the
prices for everything are as high as
they are in the best hotels IN the
try. To total the whole matter up is
simply to arrive at the conclusion that
this hotel for a CITY of the size Of New
ark is a disgrace, and IN any other
city of a quarter the size of ours would
be considered a third -ciass' house, and
a very poor one at that.
No wonder the people who are proud
Of the city in other respects want to
keep visitors away from our hotels.
The less that anyone has to do with
them the better. SALESMAN.

Duane e. Minard is doing much more
talking to the people now han when
he was a member of the Legislature.
He evidently realizes that his course at
Trenton, and that of his associates,
needs some justification. 1t would be a
waste of time to enumerate the reasons
why the Essex assemblymen should
not be returned. A decision as to their
unftness for public Office has long
since been registered in the public
mind. 1t would enliven the campaign,
however, If Mr.. Minard would treat OF
certain matters. For example, he
points with pride to the McCran law
as a Republican act. The law is a good
one, but its passage was not the volun-
tary act of the Republican majority.
Public sentiment was aroused, its
enactment was demanded, and a cowed
Republican Senate, in the Anal hour of
the session, obeyed the mandate. Mr..
Minard might discuss this phase of the
McCran law and inform the people
why such an uprising was necessary
to compel an unwilling Senate to pro-
tect the States vital interests from
private corporate greed. He might also
explain his solicitude for a large body
of our voters when he characterized the
bill which the commuters request as a
yellow dog"

WHY THE UNUSED STATE CANALS?

III a Y OODROW WILSON refers to the two canals in New Jer-
+WW sew owned by the railroads. He recalls that the railroads
complained that the State would not let them earn
enough money to buy rolling stock to move their freight, and he
tasks why in this bitter plight the railroads do not move some of
+4heir freight over the unused canals they own. The question might
Ialso be asked why in the last sixteen years they have not been
compelled to operate the canals for freight; but then everybody

To the Editor Of the Evening Star:
From the article signed Mechanic

thereby; or, in other words. II Me-

His argument that civil service en-.

The chasm separating the ~law-ahider
from the law-breaker was temporarily
bridged at one of the recent meetings
of the New York legislative in~vestigat-
ing committee. Former United States
Quarantine Commissioner Schroeder
was being examined. He is now q CON-
vict in Sing Sing. He appeared before
the committee clad in his prison garb.
Most of the members he knew by
name. He greeted them pleasantly,
and was in turn greeted as "Mr. Com

Congressman Kinkead's latest philip
pic against George l.. Record leaves
nothing further to be said by the on

Spouse, however, from Mr.. Record. The
latter is occupying the principal share
of the Republican stage. When he is
not talking he is writing. Charges
flow as freely from. histopgues as from
his pen. Sometimes he is compelled to
r~etract, but such interruptions seem
to have no effect upon his literary
career. The late Robert Louis Steven
son described prose 4%Titingaas the art
OF narrative. He admitted that there
were notifications of this definition

thors. In such case he declared the
accomplishment to be "the art Of

kead places Author Record well within
the latter class.

His effort was not kindly received, and
Mr.. Lees sensitive nature was hurt.
Since then he has evinced no pro-

present attitude is one OF mere passive
ness. He wants to be elected. of
course, but he is apparently leaving
his fortunes to the management Of the
Republican machine which he has
served with such obedience.

Candidate Lewis says: THE power

then, will he accomplish the reforms
which he promises If elected governor?
His legislators are under no obliga-
tions. Their platform binds them to
nothing in this regard. Relief is need
ed, but its accomplishment by the Re-
publican party seems rather remote
when it is realized hat 1t depends
solely upon the promise of a candidate
who in his speech of acceptance and
elsewhere confesses that he will refrain
from all unusual effort to enforce 1t.
