NO TIME TO DECKER.

1--WE LESSON the business man in politics always has to
learn. That is that some things cannot be subject of a
bargain. The dry goods merchant leaning over hs counter
in a decker with a customer is a figure that government protects but
does not pedestal. John A. Dix never quite learned this at Albany.
lie forgot it altogether when he discussed the strike in the Street
Cleaning Department here and sale, 81 would advise both sides to
get together. Business men do"
Another John A. Dix used another language in the presence Of
disorder and INSTRUMENTATION to tho public authority. That language
is still heard, but it comes from Mayor, not from Governor. For
the honor Of the community Of which MI. Dix Is too little heedful,
Nh. Gaynor is no trafficking business man when the party Of the
second part is a mutnous public employee with a brick in his hand,
and when the matter at issue involves the authority Of the city, the
general health and the law. "This city will knuckle to nobody, but
will treat everybody justly" says William J. Gaynor. Let John A.
Dix ponder the words and learn something to his advantage.
History repeats itself and New York City has had riot before, a
mayor who did his duty and a governor who paltered with disorder.
The defiant outbreaks of the week recall the Draft Riot Of July,
1863, when Mayor Opdyke kept his nerve, and when Gov. Seymour,
standing on the steps of the City Hall, trucked to a mob which had de-
fed the public authority and set scores Of fires and murdered negroes
by the hundred. As the historian Rhodes recites, he addressed them
~ "my friends and "coaxed, pleaded and promised, evidently think
ing that honeyed words would asuage the tumult"
Good citizens will hold up the Mayors hands now, and trust that
IL the Governor cannot help in keeping the public peace, he will at
least keep his own.

= them, interesting for the rest Of u.s. The Federation which q.

Since these clubwomen gathered here last the property holders Of
their sex have won right TO vote In village and town elections on
propositions Ito raise money by tax or assessment" The sex has won
fnl right to vote in Washington and California. From the six
equal suffrage States women will cast half Q million ballots in the
election Of 1912. The spread Of political socialism in this country
carries with it the movement for universal suffrage. The militant
sufragette, as distinguished from tho hotel tearoom uHrsgist, Is a
phenomenon scarcely five years old. The first use the women Of
Norway made of the ballot ws to retire the party that granted il.
They reasoned that the concession was proof Of . dangerous radical

IN THE CHINESE MIRROR.

vHE Chinese revolution is a mirror in which are reflected most
of the things that have engrossed man a a political animal.
Ancestor worship and patriarchal rule appear in the boy
Ihnperors cdict protesting like another Loeb that it is all his fault
Race conflict is presented by the uprising Of the native Chinese
against the garrisoning Manchus. Alien financial. exploitation ia seen
in the railroad development against which protest has mounted.
Again, as in the French Revolution, there ia the phenomenon of a
constituent assembly preparing to make itself a natonal. legislature.
Our own war of secession is recalled by the project to divide China
into a northern monarchy and a southern republic. WI Tingfangs
notion that China might become a federated state, in part copying
the American Constitution, in part the German Empire, suggests a
stndy Of the differences between two powerful federated systems, and
the respects in which the Swiss republic partakes Of both.

polhics-all save one. According to the Jesuit missionaries, China
tried Socialism many centuries ago, and discarded it.
