AN EXTRA SESSION.

The defeat of the Cobb compromise
primary bill in the Assembly left the
session fruitless in regard to primary
reform, for the Governor had already
signified his intention to veto the
Meade Phillips bill, the only primary
measure that passed both houses. AS
primary reform was the most important
topic before the Legislature the COM
plete failure of the session with respect
to it is regarded by the Governor as
sufficient warrant for calling a special
session, TO begin on June 20.
The Hinman-Green bill was voted
upon in both houses and rejected in
both The Cobb bill passed the Senate,
but was badly beaten in the Assembly.
If great pressure Of public sentiment
shall be exerted In the mean time there
is a reasonable probability that the
Legislature will pass a fairly salts
factory primary reform measure at the
extra session. 1t was for the Governor
to decide whether or not any practical
advantage was likely to be gained from
calling the Legislature back TO Albany.
If nothing else has been accomplished
thus far. enough has been done to make
the issue perfectly plain to the public.
If the people want direct primaries they
now have an opportunity TO make their
wishes known in an unmistakable
manner

thick upon US. There Is the classic of
its genre, which sang Of "a hot time In

A VETERANS CONCLUSION.
or of The Tribune.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: To-day L was stopped by a veteran
of the Civil War. which, like the body OF
a comet, was the fountain head of long
expanding tail-tale OF pension expendi-
lures. This veteran said he had just been
reading a letter I'm The Tribune. He is
faithful reader and follower of The Trib-
une. He had been interested in the
letter of Mr.. Decker that he read 1t and
reread IL, and then read again of the i'm
patient waiting" and longing for the end
of the old soldier. for that was what the
letter meant that is the only way the
pension payments can be reduced" said this
veteran.
The ex-boy In blue, one OF nearly two
million. who learned by bitter experience
that General Sherman knew when he char
acterized war, seemed quite disturbed. and
he continued with an air OF soIiloquy: II
served the country one year, and that
wasn't enough. Then I served a second
year. and that wasn't enough Then I
served third year. After all these years
since that awful time I've come TO this
conclusion-we ought TO have saved some
of our cartridges" s JOHN.

"GFNTLEMEN'S AGREEMENT"

The "gentlemen's agreement" between
Mr. Murphy and Mr.. Corners that no
duly elected" delegates TO the next
Democratic State Convention shall be
thrown out is very interesting. At the
last Democratic State Convention In
Rochester the STRONG arm" methods
which had characterized the two pre-
vious state conventions were abandoned,
out Of Difference to request from Colo
mel William ]. Bryan. They will not be
resumed The slungshot and the black
Jack will go upon the shelf. Grady will
have no opportunity to do as dirty a
days work as he did at Buffalo. No
duly elected" delegate will be kicked
out Murphy and Corners will decide,
however. who is duly elected.
This we owe TO a 'gentlemen's agree
ment'' between Murphy and Corners, an
improvement in political conditions
which the Legislature a year or two
ago. after the state had held its nose
over the Buffalo scandal, refused to en-
act and which is still untncorporated in
the laws The legally elected delegate
may still be legally blackjacked, but
Corners and Murphy won't do 1t. This
is a government of men, not laws, SO far
as political conventions are concerned.
And such men!

OPPOSES MID-BLOOK AVENUE
Too Costly and Not Necessary, Core
spondent Thinks.

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: The Mayors proposition 70 open
new avenue between Fifth and Sixth ave-
nues from 18th to 59th street will be OPP
posed by every taxpayers association In
New York County. One large real estate
association has just appointed committee
to object to IT, The cost Will be at least
$50, OOo, 600, and this large sum is needed for
other improvements which are vital to the
welfare of Manhattan
The best way to relieve the congested
traffic on Fifth avenue Is to widen Lexing-
ton avenue seventy or eighty feet on the
east side, which would also make room for
a four track subway on this thoroughfare-
Many of the lots on I,s1hSton avenue are
short and Il Il is decided to widen the
avenue it will be- better to add seventy or
eighty feet to the roadway than to take
only fifty feet.
tween Fifth and Sixth avenues was sug-
gested, but the proposition was not favored
by property owners, and no city official or
city board gave a hearing to discuss II.
Before the widening Of Fifth avenue
plan to enlarge the roadway OF Madison
avenue was proposed, and IL seems worth
while to widen Madison avenue between
23d and 18th streets.
At all events. the plan to open new
avenue between Fifth and Sixth avenues
should be abandoned as too expensive and
unnecessary. A RENT PAYER.

THE. RECORD.

Unfortunately for the Legislature, its
record is disappointing in regard to the
things in which the public was most
interested Next to direct nominations
public attention centred upon the fol-
lowing up of the trails disclosed by the
Aids inquiry and by Superintendent
Hotchkiss'S investigations into the legis-
lative activities of the fire insurance
companies. At first it seemed probable
that the Legislature would pursue the
subject courageOusly and that genuine
political house cleaning would result.
But the same group in the Assembly
which accomplished the defeat Of direct
nominations took the teeth" out of the
Senate's graft inquiry resolution. Still,
if q good committee is appointed and
strong counsel secured a thorough IN
covering of political corruption may yet
result. But anything, even a white
washing excursion. may be the outcome.
In other respects the session was IN
usually fruitful in good work. The
Wainwright bills undermining and hui
manizing the employers liability law Of
the state are among the most import
ant enactments of the session. In ad-
ditiOn were passed the bills perfect
ing the anti-gambling laws of the state,
the bill placing the telegraph and tele
phone companies under the jurisdiction
Of the Public Service commissions and
another strengthening the Public Ser
vice commissions law, the bills Of the
Page commission reforming the lower
criminal courts, some important amend
ments TO the state excise law and the
bill accepting the gift of Mrs Hartman
and others and appropriating S2,500,000
for the enlargement of the state park
on the lower Hudson in conjunction
Herewith.
The session was free from scandals,
except, of course, the Aids scandal,
which doubtless exercised a restraining
influence and had an effect In eliminat-
ing strike bills and grab bills. Much
was expected from the Christening in
fiuence Of the Aids affair. too much it
turns out: but if the evil that legis-
latureS do did not live after them, while
the good was oft inferred in the statute
books, this session Of the Legislature
would surely get credit when the next
campaign comes for some of its really
excellent enactmentS.

the pension system to the more llberal
standards of qualification and allow
ance. The new army of claimants had
TO be absorbed and the roll mounted from
531. 944 in 1SS9-'9O to 9.}3. IA In 1S9l-'9S
and remained near the million point
until l905-'O6, although the annual
losses from death averaged between
$4,000 and $4,000. Since then there has
been q recession, although the laws OF
February g. 1907, and Of april 19, 1908,
increasing the amounts allowed to large
classes of pensioners, carried the annual
appropriation higher than ever. The
high-water mark was reached In 1903
90 The appropriation for 19O9'1o was
S3,9lS.00o less and the appropriation for
l91orr1 has been further reduced about
s5OO0.oOO.
The report OF the Commissioner OF
Pensions for the year 10000 shows
trat nearly all of the potential claims
against the government have been taken
care of. From 1S99-19O0 to 19O1'0S the
number of claims adjudicated ranged
from 226, 125 in the first named year TO
49,. 992 in the last named. But in 1908
'O9 only 117,5S1 claims were acted on.
In former years the hold-over cases
ranged from 437, 14 in 1S99-19O0 to
l23. 403 in 1907-'OS But at the beginning
of 190S-'O9 only 66,226 back claims re-
manned unsettled. The bureau is up to
It's work. and if no new general pension
laws are passed there must soon be
marked decrease in the pension roll and
in pension expenditures. The Commits
sioner has asked Congress to consolidate
into one agency the eighteen agencies
through which payments are now made,
and he is preparing to make other re-
auctions in the bureau force. The OPP
Grating expenses of the bureau In the
five years from 1900 TO 1904, inclusive,
were SIS, 1000. For the five years
from 1905 to 1909, inclusive, they were
only SIG. 207, 600 There is, therefore,
ample ground for the conclusion that
the Pension Bureau will soon find Itself
doing a routine work which could easily
be transferred to one of the bureaus Of
the War Department
