OUR RFAcING.BoTH.WAYs CANDIDATE.

The New York Republican convention on Tues

standpatism 1t has been planned and organized with
uttermost pains by the high priest of that cult Chair
man Barnes None but the absolutely reliable will
be placed on guard, or in position to make them
selves heard.
1t is the purpose to make platform which all
standpatism can accept the model for the national
pronouncement. This is the avowed purpose. Not
only is progressvism to be ignored, but it is to be
contemptuousy rejected and openly kicked down.
stairs.
In this pleasant arrangement President Taft holds
q curious part He is to get the benefits Of this pro-
cedure without any of its disadvantages Before the
reactionares of the country he will be presented as
standing on and fully in sympathy with this New
York epitome of reactionary policy; yet he is to re-
4rain carefully from any admission Of responsibility
for it, that he may not drive away any progressive
or nearprogressve support that yet clings fatuously
to the notion that he is something Of progressive
II is a clever plan too clever to work. You can't
fool all of the people when they are all looking.
Just now, they are looking.
The reactionaries don't need any assurance that
the President is their very own. No platform that
Mr.. Barnes may write and the President secretly
approve while publicly denying participation will
help any with the tories The tories are all for Mr..
Taft, anyhow
This New York platform intrigue is in fact, very
likely to be the undong of Mr. Taft. Once more,
at the very beginning of great contest he takes a
arm, unqualified position, before all men, in plain
sight of any who to observe: position of facing
squarely in both directions at once.
Mr.. Tafts course from the time Colonel Roose-
welt became contestant, has been just this: The
White House has sedulousy persisenty disseminated
assurance that attacks must be made Roosevelt;
such unmannery proceedings would greve the Presi-
dent beyond measure Yes indeed
At the same time, the managers Of Mr.. Tafts
campaign have INDUCED the most outrageous mis-
representations of Roosevelt, circulated the most
scandalous stores and employed the most unfair and
indecent political methods.
Mr.. Taft would benefit by the pretense Of fair
ness toward an old friend and at the time profit
by the extremes Of unfarness in every department Of
i his campaign.
With the New York platform job, it Is the same;

SAYS THAT CLERKS
PAY OWN SALARIES
To the Editor OF THE TIMES.

To the Editor Of THE TIMES
There Is one moss-grown statement
made 50 frequently about Government
clerks that Il seems about time TO look
into the matter and see what there Is to
II, anyway. II is continually claimed by
farmers. mechanics. and other people
employed outside of the Government
service that they pay the Government
salaries-this claim being based on the
payment of taxes. But, 30 far most
people seem to have overlooked the fact
that the Government clerks are many
OF them, themselves taxpayers: though
anyone listening to all the fiapdoodle,
would imagine that Government en-
ployes are exempted from taxation.
But. based on this stock argument the
clerks might fairly claim to pay their
own salaries.
nection with these claims is that these
clerks do not receive their salaries as a
free gift; the Government could not run
Its business without employees, that Is
the clerks. The citizens of the country
who claim to pay these salaries are
hourly receiving benefits and protection
from the Government; they accept the
benefits, and then rail at those who per-
form the service as IL they were mendi-
cants subsisting on their bounty. The
question as to whether these employees
are paid too much. or too little, Is not
here under consideration, as the writer
Is endeavoring to bring up some new
points that have not already been dis
cussed at length: to wit. that the Gov
crnment employees do not receive their
salaries as a free gift from the tax
payers OF the country, and that they
are, themselves, taxpayers, probably in
as large proportion to the amount OF
their incomes as any other class OF peo-
pie.
Also, In connection with the subject of
salaries, the writer desires to make an
inquiry: II has been stated In news
paper article that. of the entire ex-
pense of running the Government, the
proportion paid for salaries OF employees
Ia about per cent. The writer, not
being versed in statistics, does not
vouch for the exactness of this state
ment. but, in the nature of things, the
amount would be small compared WIN
the total expense. The population OF
the United States Is about s0OO0,0OO; as
for the proportion OF taxpayers, tine
writer again pleads ignorance, but the
number must be vast. So II becomes
an interesting speculation to surmise as
10 how much the average farmer, ior
instance, pays per annum toward the
Government clerks salaries; the writer
hazards. as a mere guess, apout ~
cents per anuum. Why should the spirit
Of mortal be proud? lNoOlhrn'

SUNDAY, APRIL Z, 1917
AGAIN, THE PUBLIC UTILITIES BILL.

When the Senate handed the public utilities bill
back to the District Committee month or so ago. it
looked like good night to the legislation for this
session. The Senate progressves had had the meas
ure under their guns for some days, and had made
pathetic exposure Of its weakness and of the suspi-
cious fact that the public service managers seemed
to have been more counseled than anybody else, in
its preparation.
Senator Gallinger, chairman Of the District Com
mittee is not commonly expected to get enthusiastic
in behalf of real legislation Of this Sort A public
utilities bill just strong enough to carry the name
and just weak enough to be approved by the utility
directors, would be expected to measure up pretty
accurately to his specifications.
So, when the Gallinger bill was exposed as rather
too satisfactory to the corporations and went back to
committee, it was hardly expected to be heard from
again this session. Wherefore some satisfaction
must be felt in the fact that the Senate committee
is to give further hearing on the measure tomor
row. and that there is believed to be some chance of
getting amendments accepted that will improve it
greatly Senator Works, who made the big fight for
efficient BILL will be on hand to press his point
and it is not just apparent how the bill is now to be
ditched without making painfully obvious that there
was never any intention to pass measure that would
do any good. s s
The House District Committee is to have a hear
ing on this measure on Tuesday. Chairman Johnson,
with his accustomed incapacty TO deal with real
mans-sized issue regarding the District will for
tunately be prodded by Congressman Oldfed, author
of the House bill--the one that ought to pass-and
there is fair chance that something worth while
may be accomplished at the House end of the Capitol
If Washington at length gets some legislation
along this line, worthy of the name, it will owe
huge debt to Messrs. Oldfed, Works, Cummins Lea,
and few others who have stuck by the fight and
insisted that Washington deserves square deal. 1t
is rather new and unique experience in Congress
sional attitudes toward public service concerns, and
one deserving of especial attention.

THINKS EVOLUTION
is REASONABLE
10 the Edltor Of THE r1Mrs.

To the Editor Of THE TIMES:
There has never lived a man whose
length Of life was great enough to
enable him to watch unicellular pro-
toplasm develop into a human. It is
therefore not absolutely proven that
evolution" is true Cto this EXTENT; but
the evidence for evolution Is very great
"A. M. p" asserts in Sundays Mail
BAG that II Is proven fact that CON
sciousness" depends on the brain. That
Is the opinion of the complacent many,
hut the energetic, scientific investigators
who ignore no facts (however heterodox
to "science'D think otherwise. These
suggest that "consciousness' does exist
and manifest apart from the usual
physical organ of the mind. They can
not prove this absolutely, but a, pro-
digtous amount of evidence has been
gathered which seems to indicate the
soundness of their position. There Is on
record the data of many cases. for ex-
ample. OF persons who In natural sleep
or In hypnosis have appeared to and
conversed with acquaintances miles Gis
tant from the agents physical organism.
Some experimenters remember their ex-
perfence upon waking and accurately
describe the environment OF the object
In the case, which could not have been
known In any normal way.
Some, with superior wisdom, will here
cry: Thought transference." But
thought transference" is nothing more
than name for certain observed phe-
nomena, and II Ia In no degree an ex-
PLANTATION of them. 1t Is abundantly
proved that intelligence does pass from
one mind to another. but tine modus
operandi Is not known. The theory OF
spirits tof both the living and the
'dead'o is much more in accord with
all the facts than any other theory;
and the specious pretense of Identifying
these occurrences with anything like
wireless telegraphy is a mere begging
of the question.
- In cases that have studied the voice
anc person of the agent were strictly
objective to the second party I know
not what may be the vehicle OF the
mind when it operates apart from the
brain. but there is plenty of evidence OF
"consciousness'' independent of a physi
cal brain, as we know matter.
