Good Men for Commissioner-Iu.


Albert C. Kugel. -.
Yesterday The Bee called attention
to the candidate who, in its judy
ment. is the best Of those endorsed
by the Citizens union. and today 1t
presents the candidate, who. In Its
Judgment. is the best OF those en-
dorsed by the Labor league. Mr..
Kugel is one of the highest type Of
the mechanic, a class that constitutes
such q substantial part Of our COM
munity. By trade o plumber, now
conducting a plumbing business Of
his own, he has the good will and
confidence OF both fellow laborers
and employers. As plumbing In
epector. and later a. councilman, he
has made a creditable record. He
has been constantly accessible to his
constituents, responsive to their de-
mands. indefatigsble in attending to
the public business entrusted to him.
and as commissioner could be
counted on to apply the same In
tellisence. common sense and indus
try in the performance of his duties.

Pensions Here and Elsewhere.


Congress has wrestled all this SEES
sion with the service pension bill
that has passed the house and 10
now In the senate. Members have
disagreed over the bill because II
seeks to impose additional financial
burdens upon the country. raising
some individual pensions to sso q
month now nowhere near that. The
chief objection has bean that the bill
might pension some unworthy claim
ants.
Senator Shively Of Indiana has
called to the attention Of the senate
q sample Of British pensioning.
which bears with some interest on
this discussion. The present Lord
Nelson Of England. now more than
90 years old. dravs an annual PEN
sion OF $4,000 on account OF serv-
Ices rendered By his grandmothers
brother at the battle Of Copenhagen,
and beside this. he ENJOYS an estate
granted 10 his ancestor under
George III. which then was valued
at $4,000.
While We need 10 guard against
excuses even IN pension biiis. we
may be more keen to appreciate this

themselves. did the fighting. By OBJ

are not enough vice presidential nomtna-
tons to go around even now.

held up on the same charge. Are tears

Chicago Tribune: Mr.. Bryan thinks
the colonel stole that 'iet the people
rule" slogan from him. Mr., Bryan
himself did not steal the idea o. no
he merely adopted IT from Lincoln's
Gettysburg speech. And he didn't Inn
prove on the original.

welt, sSs. Thus do the crooks" reverse
the will Of the people at the coloneIs
college. There is only. too much for
him to do there as an ovsrseer without
trying to oversee the rest Of the uni
verse.
Baltimore American: Says Roosevelt:
IF the people decide the way 1 think
they ought not to do l will think they
are unwise." A curious statement In
deed from a man who is preaching the
right Of the people to rule, but who
threatens refusal to abide by their judg-
ment.

Size Of the Convention.

A small-dimensioned dispute Ia
raging in several newspapers over
the precise number OF delegates that
will make up the coming republican
national convention. one side con-
tending that the figure should be
1876 instead OF l,o7s. which has
been officially given out. The call
formulated and adopted by the re-
publican national committee pro-
sldes:
Said national convention shall consist OF
four delegetes-at-iarge from each state
and two delegstes-at-larJe for each rep
rssentative-at-large In the congress. two
delegates from each congressional dis
trict, six delegates from each of the ter
rttories. and two delegates each from
the District Of Columbia. Alaska, Porto
Rico and the Philippine islands.
Computed on this basis the total
number Of delegates will be 1.07S,
the two additional delegates not
counted In the 1876 being among
those apportioned to New Mexico,
which has been admitted into the
union with two representatives Of
congress instead Of one. as contem-
plated In the superintendent bill. An
the call gauges the delegates accord
ins to actual representation In con-
srsss. we take II that New Mexico
will have two delegates for each SEN
ator and congressman, or eight in
iil. the same as other states,

Taft and Labor.

The workingmen of this country
need no reinsurance Of President
Tafts friendship for them. They
we're given assurance Of that by
President Roosevelt In the autumn
OF 1908, when inspired attempts
were being made to prejudice the la
boring classes against Mr.. Taft.
President Roosevelt, In q letter to q
labor leader. at that time wrote:
II there is one body of men more than
another whose support feel l have
right to challenge on behalf Of Secretary
Taft Il Is the body OF wage workers Of
the country. A stauneher friend. fairer
and truer representative. they cannot find
within the borders OF the United States.
He will do everything in his power for
them except 10 do that which 10 wrong;
he will do wrong for no man. and there
fore can be trusted by all men.
Labor has found President Taft
fulfilling these promises. And no
president has ever been more criti-
caily watched BY labor than Mr.. Taft.
But here 10 a specific instance Of his
voluntary concern for the working
man and his family: After the act
to compensate workmen injured or
killed was passed a number Of gov
eminent employees lost their lives
and. their families being ignorant OF
the provisions of the law. failed to
make proper application for relief
within the specified time. When.
therefore. the claims came up to the
secretary OF commerce. and labor he
had to reject them for want OF legal
formally. But the matter somehow
reached the presidents ears and he
took It up personally. He sent for
all the data In the cases, went over
them thoroughly and then prepared
and sent 10 congress q special mes
sage which resulted In giving to these
poor widows and. orphans the assist
snee to which they were entitled
under this act and out OF which they
were about to be cheated BY their
own lack OF familiarity with the tech
nical requirements of the law.
Labor undoubtedly knows now that
there never was any foundation for
the attacks upon the president under
pretexts that he was It's enemy.

the continuous presidency Is that there Is
only one man in the republic who Is
