1.-TWO American traditions have been in conspicuous view during
the campaign. One is that judges shall not forget their
= dignity by working for their own election, but shall "sit up
straight" as Mr.. Wilctt put it. The other is that candidates shall
b acquainted with the uses of silk hats and frock coats. Once for
a1, when Fasett made the race for Governor, it was settled that as
between frock coats and shirt sleeves, the East Side, like the West
Side, was for frock coats.
These two traditions we have called American, but the common
principle underlying them is older than history. It traces back to
the time when there were no %wel-defined political institutions or
vsnerated laws, when government was largely personal, and when,
therefore, as Bagehot says, "the habtual ascendency of grave man.
nr was a primary force in winning and calming mankind" One
ccnceves of the patrarchs is men Of much dignity Of bearing. So
ere the savage chiefs of our own time. The Indian braves who visit
Washington have a demeanor Of greater austerity and gravity than
any of the official white men they find there. The Blackfoot chiefs
who visited Mayor Gaynor elected this compliment: "You know how
to keep from talking" A modern traveller has said Of the Persians
that "from the spirit and decision of q public envoy upon ceremonies
md forms the Persians very generally form their opinion Of the
character Of the country he represents"
In our own country and time manner Il NO longer 50 necessary
= the social order, fred political institutions taking is place. But
VIII judges-who inherit the patriarchal function-it remains an
essential, and the successful politician must cultivate it. The thing
that subjugated the allegiance Of the primitive savage may determine
the vote Of the sophisticated citizen. 1t is pernous for a candidate

MORE STccET ROOM WANTED.

q row 10 get more st.eet room is a problem to which the city
has addressed itself. Room it must have as year by year
= skyscrapers climb higher and discharge a larger volume Of
traffic upon the pavements. Immediate relief has been found by
6hearng etoops, porches and balconies in Fifth avenue and important
cross streets, and throwing the space thus gained along both curbs
into the central roadway. Private enterprise also has done some
thing. Many Of the big buildings downtown have passagewaw trav-
ewing their courts from street to street, and in inclement weather
knowing persons can get about without getting wet.
More radical schemes Of relief will come later. It has already
been recommended by the chief engineer in the Manhattan Bureau of
Highways that another street be constructed under Fortysecond
street and double-decked between Fifth and Lexington avenues. 1t
has been urged that certain narrow streets, like Nassau, be arcaded,
and vehicles altogether excluded from them. A plan sponsored by
Comptroller Metz before the Board of Estimate in the Mcclellan ad-
ndnistraton contemplated a novel use of arcading to widen Thirty
sscond street between Broadway and Seventh avenue so as to give
better access to the Pennsylvania Terminal. Instead of having the
city assume the almost prohibitory cost of condemning a strip on
either side of the street, it was proposed to throw the present side
walks into the roadway, and create new ones by making arcades under
~abutting buildings, the upper stories remaining in private use.
~ In the sunken roads crossing Central Park there is half precedent
Tor streets wholly subterranean which have been suggested for the
-seclusive accommodation Of trucking. Chicago has met this problem
with a freight subway. The socaned rows in the English town of
Chester offer still another device for securing more footway. In
effect, these are second-story arades-promenades sixteen feet wide
and open in front which rn along the second stories of buildings
and have private dwellings above them, inferior shops below them and
Important shops behind them.
1t would have been better for this town when its checkerboard
street plan was made, early in the nineteenth century, if blocks had
~besn laid of with their greatest dimension north and south, instead
>Nf east and west, for the bulk Of travel is north and south and a
different plan might have doubled the longitudinal thoroughfares
Partially to correct this mistake, it has been proposed that another
Avenue be made midway between Fifth and Sixth avenues project
which the adoption tomorrow of Amendment Number Four might
render more feasible.
