She posed I'm American Continental cos
tune. and Mr. Chase called the picture

hibltlon this winter.

tives who did not vote or register. but
if all the natives had registered theI
would still have fallen far short OF the
total of S2S,793 fOreign-bOrn. If MAUI
ralizatiOn were automatic the city
would be politically, as it is in many
other respects, prevailingly foreign.
OF the alien elements here the ltaI-
ians are most Indifferent about acqulr-
ing citizenship. Only 1871 per cent OF
that nationality were among the MAUI
rallied in 1910. The next to the low
est percentage was that of the liusslah-
born. 24.9. Yet these two mathematics
are the most numerOusly represented
here, constituting 30 per cent OF the
total fOreign-bOrn population. Inc per-
centage of naturalized is highest among
the Germans and Irish, go in the one
case and 63.1 in the other. 1t is often
said that the English are the most re-
luctant of all immigrants to change
their nationality. But that is not the
case so far as New York City is con-
cerned. The percentage OF English
born naturalized here is ga rather
surprising ratio
The Census Bureaus figures show
how conglomerate a population this
city has and how varied are the ele-
ments which may ultimately make their
full influence felt in the ballot boxes.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: We happen to be tenants In a
building in West 9th street, between
Sixth and Seventh avenues. and for the
last two months the street has been more
or less impossible. usually more. Repeat
ed appeals to the Department OF Street
Cleaning and those OF Public Works and
Police have resulted In only partial re-
moval OF the distractions to traffic COM
plained Of Is Il true that building con-
tractors need not respect the rights OF
others unless IL happens 10 suit their
pleasure and that permits 20 use the
roadway for building material enuue
them TO use II for storing eXcavated dirt
and material not needed for some time
and that they can maintain bridges when
no longer necessary? or are they sup
posed 20 do their best TO minimize the
necessary Inconvenience to others while
they are working?
The city authorities seem to proceed on
the assumption that others must be put
10 any Inconvenience If thereby the
builder Is convenienced In the slightest
degree. Now. can you tell me to whom
We should apply TO have our rights TO the
use OF the street enforced equally with
the rights OF builders? ). G. LEWIS.

President TAFT has. | believe. made In the
fullest measure a good President In spite OF
the disloyalty of a faction OF his own party

A QUESTION OF IDENTITY
Infelicitous Quotation from Kipling

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: / have been considerably amused
and puzzled by the appearance In this
neighborhood OF Autographs of Roosevelt
and Johnson. which In addition To the fig
ures OF the candidates. bear the lines
There is neither East nor West,
Border nor breed nor birth,
When two strong men stand face 10 face,
Though they come from the ends Of tho
earth
Every one who knows his Kipling is
aware that one Of the strong men" re-
ferred TO In the poem is a particularly in
genious horse thief and that further on
in the poem 1t is declared:
The thief is kin to the jackal spawn.
l have no desire to quarrel with the
charming frankness OF the lithograph. but
l really do think that IL might be a little
more definite Which is which? Gov
ernor Johnsons recent remarks in regard
to the President OF the United States sug-
gest the jackal and Colonel Rooseyelts
political methods are quite in accord with
those OF the freebooter But in the poem
the horse thief and the 1ackal are sun-
posed to be one and the Same narson
while on the Autograph they are repro
scented as entirely separate individuals.
This may be perfectly in accord with the
facts-of that the Progressives them
selves are the best Judges-but is II quite
fair to Kipling? II

London.
other passengers were Mr.. and Mrs. +.
Egerton Webb and their daughter. Miss
Laura As the Webbs and Astors have
been friends for many years, Mr.. Aston
vas much In the company Of Miss Webb.
Their constant companionship soon gave
rise 10 idle rumors OF an engagement
When the vessel locked yesterday the
young man was asked Il there WAS tny
likelihood OF an engagement. but he e.
piled that he did not care 10 discuss his
personal affairs. Miss Webb laughingly
declared that she and Vincent Aston had
been friends from childhood, and that
their association aboard ship was merely
a continuation OF that friendship.
Mr. Astor said the sudden Inheritance
OF his fathers vast estate had saddled
him with responsibilities so great that he
would not be able 10 resume his studies
at Harvard University.
He said he had leased the home In Fifth
avenue owned by Llyod Bryce, the Ameri-
can Minister 70 the Netherlands, and
that as soon as IL was ready for CcCu-
pancy his mother would come TO New
York and live there with him.

COUNTING ON HIS TALENTS.

Il don't see how Mr.. Murphy could
change his attitude" says Governor
Dix emphatcaly with reference 10 the
boss's attitude in favor of his renoml-
nation. Neither do we. Murphy may
not renominate Dix. but he will not
cease TO want him renominated. DIX
is the most serviceablc tool Murphy
could have in the GOvernorShip, ana
the boss will never change his attitude
of favor toward serviCeable tool.
Shall the right hand hate the left or
the belly change its attitude toward
the mouth!
The Governor has been precisely
what Murphy wanted him to be. To
renominate Dix is for Murphy almost
like setting a stamp Of approval upon
himself. And more, for ii opens up a
future which he himself can approve.
Bosses sometimes turn down their
Dixes, but they never change their at
titude toward them. If they could al
WAYS have their way they would give
a Dix. when they found one, many re-
nominations, and spend their time
while the office was thus filed in pick
ing out a successor Of exactly the same
sort
No. Mr.. Dix is entirely justified in
saving with emphasis that he cannot
see how the boss could change his at
titude. To elect Dix would mean two
more years like the last two for Muir
ply. Can any one expect the boss 10
change his attitude toward that pros
pect? And what will become OF the
system if the boss says to the taithiuI
servant who has put the boss'S talent
out at usury and caused 1t to increase
10 ten talents: You have been faith
"ful servant. Your reward shall be
"permission to sit among the has
"beens.' ! will make the unfaithiul
servant who hid his talent In the
ground Of insurgency chief stewart
"of NV estates? Logic and all the
parables are on the side Of the Gov
ernor This helps a servant to speak
confidently Of his masters justice.

THE LATEST PHASE.

The strike at Lawrence is an insane
performance. It IS intended as a pro-
fest against the Imprisonment of Ettcr
and Giovannitti, who are charged with
beinr accessories TO murder rs IL result
of death in riot during the preceG'
ing Lawrence strike, Ettor ard Clio
vannitti will be tried on Monday, ana
the delay in their trial, despite ali
that has been said about IT, Is largely
tbe work of their own counsel. There
is every reason 10 believe that they Will
get Justice. Sane sympathlzers would
NJ least have waited until the trial was
over.
But rank folly in this labor dispute,
which now flames forth anew, has not
been confined to the labOrers. was the
arrest Of EttOr and Giovannitti itself II
sensible and justifable proceeding
The trial will soon show. But the fact
that it occurred at the time when ;he
authorities were Mechanically arrest
ing parents who wanted TO send thelf
children out of town, where they would
be properly fed, does not inspire CON
fidence in it, The case against the
prisoners. so far as 1t is known to
the public, is not particularly impress
sive.
If this proceeding turns out TO be
another bull-headed blunder, like the
attempt illegally to coerce the striking
fathers and mothers and the arrest
of strikers for an alleged dynamite
plot Of which capitalists and their SYM
pathizers are now accused, those who
made these mistakes in their panic at
the dangerous situation in Lawrence
last year helped to SOW the seed for the
present outbreak. In a critical situa-
ton such as existed In Lawrence last
year and exists there again to-day, the
most dangerous blunder Is action which
makes the striking labOrerS think that
the powers Of the state are being ille-
gally and unfairly used against them.
