New York is no exception to the rule
Of Democratic success in the eastern
half Of the country. The election OF
NIr Dix TO the governorship by ma
iority Of $1,000 or more in state which
has recently been in the habit Of giving
Republican candidates fer Governor ma
iorities Of similar dimensions shows the
great overturn that has taken place IN
public sentiment Many factors have
contributed TO the result. and 1t would
be idle 10 attempt 10 apportiOn the of-
feet of each. New York is thus added
fo-rhe growing list of states which have
for the time ceased to elect Republican
governors. The tendency was marked
Two years ago. when states which --ent
Republican on the national ticket chose
Democratic executives, apparently for
the reason that the voters believed that
the Republican party had been III
power long enough at their state capi-
tails and that their state governments
would be improved by being placed in
Democratic hands.
That sentiment has been fostered in
this state by the attitude Of the Repub-
Iican orCanization toward Governor
Hughes and by the legislative scandals
which were revealed last winter. LOgl-

THE EXPRESS STRIKE

Drivers


To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: The sympathy Of the public should
be on the side Of the striking expressrnen
in their struggle with their employers
Men who have TO work as they do, from
twelve TO fifteen hours a day, at wages
varying from $40 TO SO a month (but in
most instances far below the latter fig
ure). have a Just grievance, for which
they have a right to seek redress.
The companies discourage the formation
Of a union among them and decline 10
treat with union representatives. or
course they do. They have been able 10
keep up the present iniquitous scale Of
hours and wages because the men had no
union. They render the formation Of a
union necessary, and then hope by raising
ths cry Of CLOSED shop 10 escape once
more the necessity Of facing frankly the
problem Of treating their employees fairly
Upon the companies rests also the re
sponsibility for danger to life and limb
resulting from the reckless speed with
which the great express wagons (more
dangerous than automobiles) are sent

CAUCUS
ON TAFT'S MEASURES

WASHINGTON, March ga caucus of
the Republicans of the house is to be
called for next week to arrange the pro-
gram of putting through that body the
administrations measures now pending
in congress. This was agreed upon at
the Whitne House today.
Representatives Townsend and Hamil-
tor Fish told the president today that a
caucus is about the speediest way to Sc
cure methodical action. The president will
ask the Ohio Republicans to see to the
calling of the gathering.
The president was told that none of
his important measures before congress
were in danger, but that there had been
more or less unavoidable delay in placing
them before the house.
Mr.. Townsend, in charge of the admin
istration railroad bill in the house, said
his committee would meet tomorrow, and
he expected to take up at that time the
question of reporting the measure to the
house.
The committee has agreed upon the bill
and it was only necessary to whip the
provisions into a detailed shape and
frame a report. Mr.. Townsend pronounc-
ed false the allegations that the president
had insisted upon any certain bill or
form of a bill Mr.. Townsend considered
extremely unfair certain criticisms that
had been made in the senate.
