cYEcEISG THE GERRYNANDER.


The eerrymandcr is one of the most
ancient abuses in American politics. IT
dates back 10 ihc beginning of the lasl
century and takes its name from FL
bridge Gerry. ii JeffersOnian statesman,
for part Of a term Nice-PreSident of the
United States. who tried 10 carve Massa-
chusctts into legislative districts in such
n way as 10 cntrench Il Democratic mi
nority in control OF that state. His cX-
ample has been initiated hundreds OF
times since his day. and until recently II
has seemed impossible 10 prevent the
usurpation Of power represented IN an
apporti0nment in which the voters Of one
party exercise a far greater share in gov
ernment than do the same number or
voters in another party. Public opinion
condemns This injustice. but ii has been
slow in finding way to remedy it,
out in Missouri. where gerrymander-
ine has long been pI1ctiSed as fine art.
means are now being devised To put an
end 10 the abuse The Legislature of
Missouri Is strongly Democratic, al
though the state has in recent years he
come Republican. Democratic power
has been based on an unfair arrange
mcnt Of legislative and Congress dis
iricts. one gerrymander permitting the
ncrpetration Of another. The Legislat-
urc which recently adjourned did not
PASS II reapportion act. because it
feared hat Republican Governor
would veto it, II thus allowed the power
to make reapportionment of the state
senate TO lapse into the hands Of three
state officials acting rs board two of
them bein2 Democrats and one, the Gov
.1nOr. 4 Republican.
The majority of this board has now
turned ont plan grossly inequitablc in
Us distribution of representation. The
senatorial ratio is about $1,000, but the
board has constructed districts ranging
in population from G3.000 10 10000. In
the city Of st. Louis il created districts
averaging 1l4.0Oo in population. while IN
Kansas CITY the average Is e1,JN. and
out in the country. where the Democratic
mGiorties are found. the ratio runs as
low as G3.SJ3. This arrangement is a
counterpart Of the Congress apportion-
inent. according 10 which 265.440 people
are crowded into the 10Th District repre-
sented by Mr. BarthOldt. Republican,
while i'm a nearby Democratic district,
represented by Mr.. Shackleford. the pop
ulatiOn is only 142,OO0. Mr.. Bartholdt
himself has received more votes than
have been given for all candidates for
Congress in the district represented by
the Hon Champ Clark.

THE UNCLEAN BAKESHOP
A Lesson in Apathy That Reflects No
Credit on Bread Users.

To the Editor OF The Tribune
Sir: In the spring and early summer Of
last year the bakers OF this city made a
gallant fight for better conditions in the
shops In which they were compelled to
work. They held meetings and distributed
literature illustrating the dangerous condi-
tons that have for years existed in their
trade. They told as much OF tho public
as they could reach about cellar bakeshops,
In which men slept on sacks OF -four; about
larger and better class bakeries I'm which
the hands of the men were mutilated by
mixing knives when feeding dough 10 the
kneadlng machines; about shops where 70
per cent OF the men had tuberculosis. 80
per cent of them TO the point OF hem

help the bakers by giving publicity to the
facts. The men were striking not only for

TIE CONTROLLERS CRITIC.

As an uncompromising upholder Of The
merit system, as his criticism Of Con
troller PreudergaSt proved him TO he,
Mayor Gaynor should give heed 10 the
protest made by the Civil Service Reform
Association against Park Commissioner
Stoyer's appointment OF Mr., William J.
Lee as supervisor of recreation in this
borough. The law is just as explicit re-
gardng appointments to places in the
exempt class as il is regarding removals
from office in that class. Fitness, not
politics. should be borne in mind by the
appointing official. This was the burden
of Manor Gaynor's utteranceS concern
ing the removals and appointments in
the Controllers office. and IL applies with
particular force to the appointment of a
supervisor of Fairgrounds.
With regard 10 Mr.. Lee. 10 one has
been able TO find that he had any special
claims TO consideration for appointment
to the place he now holds except his po-
litical usefulness. He has been the first
lieutenant Of political organizer who
''flopped' TO the support Of Mayor Gay
nor in good season when the latter was Il
candidate for Office. Aside from this
he is said TO have been the sparrinS
partner Of an actor-pugilist and was as
sociated with discredited eXploiter of
the public interest in athletics who came
into collision with the criminal law. In
The present stage of the playground
movement supervisor Of unusual quali-
iications is plainly required. Yet this
dubious appointment is made. and, what
is more astonishing. the selection is cred
tied not TO the Park Commissioner but
10 Mayor Gaynor himself. the severe
critic Of Controller PrendergaSt.
