WHAT is IT?

What is the basis of all actions
Favorable. and unfavorable too,
What is the primary cause,
OF all conditions that come to you?
Do you act from force of habit,
Or impulse day by day,
But what is the builder, of habit
That leads you on life's way?
What method can you use
To govern and control,
Fortunate or unfortunate events
OF every human soul?
What is this power within you
Which Internationally:
Will make yourself and those about
you
Either happy or unhappy?

whether Mr.. MARITIME became the next
United States senator or not.
This resolution, which was gotten UP
soon before the election of a represent
alive Of New Jersey, tells the State
what the opinion of MARITIME Is in his
home town. 1t repeats the message de-
livered to MARITIME by his fellow citi-
zens for the past twenty years: You're
a pretty good fellow personally. Mar
tine, but you would never do for q
public office of any kind"
When Marines own hackers de-
clare the senatorial controversy Is not
a matter of men but Of principles, does
not this peal out the conviction as
evidenced by the citizens of Plainfield
since 1890?
And Governor Wilson, who has ad-
mitted that he is fighting not for Mar
tine but to carry out a pledge, would
prefer to send MARITIME to the United
States Senate rather than admit he
promised something he should not have
promised. He is not as brave as we
thought.
The Legislators we elected will not
vote for MARITIME. New Jerseys repu-
tation for conservatism will not be

1TN HE Taft administration is not very popular in New Jersey
but what little respect now exists for the TAFT admins
tration will be entirely dissipated If the evident deal by the
East Jersey Water Company with the federal officials at Washlng
ton, with the object of forcing the State to permit the water com
pany to establish pipe connections between Bayonne and STATEN
Island goes through. The alleged need of the federal Notifications
on Staten Island for New Jersey water is q hollow pretense. 1t
was not thought of until the wafer company went TO Washington
armed with powerful New York influences to secure federal aid
against the State. Secretary Dickinson is a member of Mr.. Tafts
cabinet and under the orders of Mr.. Taft. Whatever he does Of
fcally Mr.. Taft is responsible for. He is not the first member OF
the present cabinet to subserye the interests of a selfish corporation.
Mr. BaIIinger is a conspicuous example. Balinger by his acts has
brought obIoquy upon the President and he is retained in full conf
dence as a cabinet adviser and department head, although popu-
~larly execrated. Whether any appeal to the President against the
arbitrary dictum of his secretary of war in a matter of vital concern
to this State would have any effect, therefore, seems doubtful. There
is more dependence upon Congress, which is asked by the secretary
to vote the money to pay the cost of carrying out a scheme to ag
srandize a private water company at the expense of the sovereignty
and vital interests of this State.

4 THLRD PARTY MoYPMENT For NEW ERsEY.

1TA HE organization of the National Progressive League fore
shadows the creation of a third party. The organizers of this
league are Republicans who have partly severed themselves
from party but still call themselves Republicans. The sorcalled
progressive movement in the Republican party developed immediate
ly after the election of President Taft, and received many recruits
when Congress enacted the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill. 1t gained
much strength during the first session of the present Congress and
it was enabled In the preliminary campaign last year to retire a
number of the stRndpat and reaotionary congressman when they
came up for party denomination. In the November election Demo
cratic candidates for Congress, received considerable support from
this element, with the result that different States elected Demo
cratic legislatures to choose Democratic senator's to succeed Re
publcans, whose terms will expire next March. The policies Of
President Taft, nodded by Senator Aldrich and influenced largely
by the special interests bitterly antagoniEed the Republican Progress.
sives, and one of the objects of the national league, now formed, is
the defeat of Mr.. Taft for denomination next year. On the other
hand, the regular party organization has fixed upon the President
be considered. Under no circumstances will the Progressive leaders
support Mr.. Taft, and the alternative liz a third candidate. If only
Republicans were engaged in the progressive movement it would
simply mean a fatal division in the Republican party and the inevi.
table election of a Democratic President. But the Progressive lead
ers do not entertain the idea of an organized party faction and they
do not propose to procure the election of q Democratic President.
Their object is to consolidate the Progressive Republican sentiment
with an independent Democratic vote and thus form a national
party to put up a candidate of its own. So strong are the Progress
sives in the West that they may we'll hope to carry most of the
as against Taft and the Democratic candidate. If a large support
can be drawn from the Democratic party in the Eastern States there
would be hope Of carrying enough Of them to land a third party
candidate In the White House. The New Jersey manager OF the
new party movement is George L. Record, of Jersey City, the conf
Dental adviser of Governor Wilson and the source of his admins

State organizer of the new party movement has already made good
progress He has accomplished a serious division In the New Jersey
Democracy, and he is in a favored position to widen the breach into
O gulf, make chaos of State politics and bring about political con
ditions in New Jersey more serious for the Democracy than those
that existed in 1896, when forty thousand Democratic voters left
the party, which had then fallen under the fatal blight of the infu
ence of men like james E. MARITIME.

Glad Curtain Is Down on snead Case.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
This community should be thankful
for the fact that the curtain has been
rune down at last on that awful domes-
tic tragedy, the Snead-Martin case.
For more than a year the public has
been pestered with the details of the
death Of the young woman for which
her mother and two aunts were mace
responsible by the authorities. TIE
painful exhibitions of passion by the
frenzied mother have been detailed ad
nauseam; and now that the prison
doors ave been closed upon her let us
hope that there win be no more of her
n her alleged murder.
But Is sever years q fair sentenoe2
Ten years in State prison is the maxi
u sentence under the plea accepted
by the court. The woman has been
treated like a criminal ever since her
arrest, and by the plea she practically
admits the murder. Why should she not
receive the limit 1t appears to have
been a sort of compromise arrangement
all the way through. L. f. M.

@ ENATORIAL elections are usually decided, not py pre-
liminaries thereof, but by their outcome. The deciding fac
tor is not oamor, but votes. The candidate who goes into
q legislative Joint meeting with his full strength short of a majority
is usually marked for final defeat. He can get no accession OF
strength and cannot reach the goal He has no reserve to draw
upon. In battle a general who has no reserves or has exhausted
what he had faces defeat. The full strength and much more than
the real strength of MARITIME was shown in the Democratic confer
ence last night. He received votes that he cannot command IN the
election and would not have gotten in a pledged caucus. be can at
no. stage of the game get more votes than the informal number
given to his candidacy without any obligation to repeat the vote IN
the balloting in joint session. He is bound to get less on the first
ballot and still less on the second. His vote will travel crab-fashion
if the baroting is prolonged and until the inevitable breakaway.
The conference action was no test of the real standing of the candi-
dates. The test is TO come.

ally there were tears and a reconcilia-

The arrest of the gunboat Hornet
will undoubtedly handicap General
Bonilla's Honduran revolution. 1t had
been progressing very nicely and might
have been expected to succeed had not
n or two little things occurred to
block II.
Among these things was the negotia-
ton which wss being carried on by the
President of Honduras for an Amer
lean loan Of some $40, Oo0. 900 or 80.
Once such a loan has been made and
guaranteed by American collection Of
revenues of the country securing 1t,
nothing is more annoying than a revo-
luton. Thus $40, 900, 900, under these cir
cumstances, is a better guarantee of
peace than is an equal amount given
outright in the cause OF peace.
When Bonilla sailed away so bravely
to taxi possession OF his native land
there was q feeling rampant In inner
circles in this country that his war
errand would be bootless. Therefore the
detention OF the Hornet by the United
States cruiser Tacoma under direction
of the department of Justice occasioned
no great amount of surprise in said
inner circles.
