were willing to cheat their employers

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
AS registration day is close at hand
l wish to call the attention of every
voter to the fact that II is his duty to
get out and get his name on the list, SO
that he will be entitled to vote at the
fall election. 1 am not writing this be-
cause I am a politician, but because [
am a voter and want to see this election
the banner one. notwithstanding the
fact that a new method will be in
vogue.
l have been informed that many men
will not go to the polls because they do
not understand the new system that
will be put into effect. Don't let this
happen. and l ask that your paper, be-
fore the election, give a detailed ac-
count of how to cast a ballot. This
would interest every voter in the city.

MONDAY SEPTEMBER Ii, 1911.
THE COMMITTEE AND THE CANDIDACY.

oTa HE Endorsement by a county committee of a candidate or set
of candidates for party nomination has been vigorously de
nounced both by Republican and Democratic independents
as an unwarranted and arbitrary stretch of authority, the conten-
ton being that the committee was merely administrative; that it
represented all the members of the party, and that without a party
vote to instruct the committee had no right to speak for the Organi-
cation in new matters of policy or as to candidates for nominations.
A State committee of an organization has no more rights or power
as representing the party than has a county committee. If its
members express a preference for any candidate or policy without
a previous Endorsement by the party voters such preference is
merely individual. 1t has no authority and no significance other
than that. Any other two or three or more men might meet and
unite in favor of a party candidacy and it would have just as much
meaning and Importance.

THE SPECIAL ELECTION IN ORANGE.

IT. Orange, the same as in other cities in which special elections
have been held under the Walsh law, there is no organiza-
ton by the opponents of the proposition, while there has been
an organized propaganda in its favor. The conviction is general,
however, that the verdict tomorrow will be an adverse one. Since
Trenton and Passaic, Influenced by local conditions peculiar to
those cities, have adopted the new commission experiment, it is felt
even by many who might be favorable to a change of government
that it is well to see how the experiment works out in those cities
before adopting it, At the same time in the city of Orange the To-
cal conditions are not such as to warrant a municipal revolution.
1t has been demonstrated in Trenton that commission government
does not mean a change in the personnel, since in that city the new
commission is composed of men long identified with the old govern
ment and representing the same elements. =

Appeal for clean stage.

Appear Tor cream sfnEe'
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
There is a report that a 17-year-old
girl who now figures in a murder trial
because of her relations with a man
charged with murder is to appear on
the New York stage. This in my
opinion, should not be. Does it seem
possible that the public wishes to see a
person of this character attract a
crowd because of her unfaithfulness?
Would it not be better to have her
stink away to some secluded place and
atone for her sins?
Women of this character are often
offered a neat sum of one to disport
themselves before the public, and then
they sing themselves into oblivion. Let
the world not pay any attention to
managers who try to profit in this
manner. CLEAN STAGE.

TODAY'S STRUGGLE IN MAINE.

NJ EWS from Maine will be looked for all over the United States
ANU tonight, but if the election that is now in progress on the
question of aboishing the humbug prohibition amendment
is a close one the result may not be made known for several days
Maine is a big State in area, and its rural population is well scat
tered. The earliest returns will come from Portland. If that city
goes dry, prohibition will have carried the State. If the vote in the
city is close the chances will favor prohibition. 1t is reasonable to
believe, however, that the people of Maine will this time shake off
years.

Points Out Error.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
Evidently your correspondent who ad-
vocated hat breweries be taxed to
support the widows and orphans OF
drunkards was as shortsighted as ne
was well-meaning, If 4.e will glance
through the following he will see
clearly where he is wrong.
Suppose every drunkard knew that
when he died his widow and orphan
would be supported by a a on the
breweries, The effect would be to
make him more careless than ever with
what little savings he might have laid
by. It would remove the moral obliga-
ton to provide for the future, and
would in the end be an encouragement
to excess in drinking.

AS the public officials usually get
more blame than praise, l would like

I refer to that department of the

but we'll done. There is no confusion
about the temporary tearing up of the
