Weights and Measures
Law a Dead Measure
There few things of more wide
spread Importance and that more
directly affect the whole people than
correct weights and measures.
The secretary of the state is by
law made the official scaler OF
weights and measures. There is,
however, no law giving him ade-
quate authority nor are any funds
or facilities provided for his use in
the performance of any duty in the
premises. Therefore the law is a
dead letter. There is urgent need
of the services of an efficient state
scaler,equipped with full authority
and provided with the funds neces-
sary to make his office vital force
in the state.

Conservation of Human
Life Of Vital Importance

Examination of the reports of
the state railroad commission
and the mine inspection depart
ments reveals the fact that death
eXacted a heavy toll of the rail
roads and in the mines of the state
during the past twelve months.
This distressing showing is suffi-
cient to inspire the conviction that
we are yet far from the convicted
goal of giving to employees in ha-
ZardOus occupations and to the
travelling public the maximum of
protection. Contrasting the show
ing made in this state, and | may
say in the entire union with the
record of older countries, one is
impelled to the belief that the
ideal system of providing protec-
tion for employees and travellers is
yet to be adopted. We may not,
unfortunately, hope to achieve the
result of making accidents impos-
sible, and yet the experience of
other nations should encourage us
in the work of enacting laws that
will reduce the danger to life and
limb to the minimum.

suggestion of the late VIM. G. Whit
ney, whose protege he was. On the
bench he restrained the attorney-gen-
eral from enforcing the penalties
against the New York gas trust under
the eighty-cent gas law. He took
the car lines from the utilities board,
by appointing receivers for the New
York city railway. He permitted the
abolition OF transfers on certain car
lines by ordering the receivers to re-
linquish their leases.

In THE CROTHERS STYLE

GOVERNOR CROTHERS has
just made grave announcement of
the fact that he is convinced that
there are many State employees
who can be dispensed with and
that he proposes to cut the list
down to the limit" That is a fair
example of the Crothers way o:
doing things politically-a way for
which we have the profoundest
disgust and because of which We
so thoroughly distrust his every
political move or utterance. Gov
crnor Crothers has not just come
at this late day to a realization of
the fact that there are many Use
less State employees. He has
known that fact all along, as has
everybody else. But he has been
very careful to take no steps to-
ward rectifying this abuse. There
has been no looping off Of these
useless employees, so long as the
Governor was nursing certain per-
sonal political prospects. But
now the situation is altogether
changed. His political prospects
are blasted at present, and he can
afford to pose as a reformer who
VIII dispense with useless off

that the Governors reform spirit
generally becomes manifest "af-
ter the event. when his political
fortunes would not likely suffer
thereby. And lots of dear refor-
mers are fooled to the top o; their
bent by these well-timed utter
ances on the Governors part. But
