THURSDAY. FEs. 2e 1912

THE Journal has unintention-
ally wounded the ~ensitive feel
ingsofthe Richmond News Leauer
bydeclaring that the people had a
right to vote uoon the question
OF state wide prohibition. Indeed
our contemporary was affected to
thespoint.of::acidity ard demands
our authority FOR such a state
ment.
We might wi. propriety refer
the.Leader tostheI'learned mem
bers of the House of Delegat, s
who recently passed the Enabling
A C { by a handsome majority
thereby evidencing their belief in
the right of the people TO vote on
this question.
But we believe that right to be
Inherent, lot only as regards.this
particular question bu. any other.
The people, not their repres> nta
tives. form the basic element of
all governments. In a represen
tativeigovernment the.lawmaking
pOwerSis delegated to their rep
resentatives but the people still

d should ii become n c.
cessary that the principles of the
! Initiative and referendum be ap
piled th-y should be used mot 10
destroy representative gov n
ment but to prevent it becoming
misrepresentation" Thus spake
Teddy snj.he. thinks ne knows.
In this instance at any rate many
able public men,agree with him.
Again the Supreme Court Of the
United States in recent decision
declared that the initiative and ref
erendum is aiEpolitical question.
Ce-tainl ! if this is true the people
have right to use it in the mat
ter of prohibition il they so desire.
Further. I he Legislature OF
Virginia has for years recognized
this right by providing a way in
which h different counties
could call an ele ;ticn for the de
cision of the liquor problem and
IN special instances for the de
cision of other questions which
decisions and elections have been
declared constitutional by the So
Preme Court Of this state. If the
people or Mathews and Gloucester
have right to vote upon these
questions are not the people of
the state as a whole entitled to it?
Were the Vets of whom the
Leader is valued supporter, con
WINGED that the mailing Act is
unconstitutional. as they argue.
they would nor have made so
strenuous fight against it for in
that event they could not be harm
ed by its passage.
If the esteemed Editor of the
News Leader still differs with us
we invite him to visit our humbl.

Officers Oppose Proposed Review

Oficers Of the Grand Army Of the Re-
public In this city are strongly opposed

troops in Van Cortlandt Park on Memorial
Day. AdIutant General William Verback
IS trying to obtain an appropriation for
this purpose from the Legislature.
General George B. Loud, chairman Of the
memorial committee. said that IL the ma

be- two separate parades. and neither would

FIRE IN CHURCH OF MESSIAH
Blaze in Famous Structure
Causes $4,000 Damage.

The Church OF the Messiah. AT the north
west corner Of Park avenue and 3ith street.
WAS visited by fire shortly before noon yes
terday. and. although at first II was feared
that the structure would be demolished. the
fremen succeeded in controlling the blaze
after II had done about $1,000 damage An
overheated nue is thought 10 have started
the fire.
In irving to get at the flames IN" FIRE
men were forced to smash an imported
stained glass window directly over the en-
trance TO the church. valued at 500. Pieces
Of the broken window fell into the pipes
of the $4,000 Odell organ. but the instru-
ment was not seriously damaged, and SER
vices will be held as usual to-day.
Alfred Shaw. sexton of the church was
the first to discover the fire. He was in
the front part OF the church when he saw
columns Of smoke coming through the
cracks I'm the floor. He ran to the street
and called patrolmsn. who sent I'm an
alarm.
The smoke soon became so dense that the
fremen could gain access only by running
a ladder TO the balcony floor and breaking
the stained glass window. After this their
work was easier, and the fire was confined
"a the front part of the building.
The Church OF the Messiah is one Of the
most famous churches In the city. and has
stood on its present site for the last thirty
three wears. John Haynes Holmes is the

Affairs of Society Which Prom

Are Muddled.

Persons who are preaching about pro-
gressive ideas in politics should pause for
a while and behold the workings Of another
hearts OF people. It is a movement for
the encouragement of marriage. This may
not be the purpose Of the movement. but 1t
certainly has that tendency In the giving
of a dowry to the members of the Minsker

the marriage benefit show that the MEM
bers have not been slow 10 take advantage
of the dowry clsuse i'm the constitution Of
the association.
Besides the dowry the Minsker associ-
alton has an attractive cemetery on Stat
on Island which is at the disposal Of the
members.
The marriage settlement is not paid in
cash like the dues Of the several hundred
members, but in the form Of a note made
payable I'm nine months. Several of the
notes have not been paid In that time, and
Justice Delehanty yesterday appointed
George ". Clune as receiver OF the Min
skier association.
This proceeding came about through the

NEW SUBWAY WORK STARTS
Contractors Begin Excavating in
CITY Hall Park.

Actual digging was begun in Broadway
yesterday for the new subway system
Soon after noon a gang of Italians started
excavating at Broadway and Chambers
street, Just inside the railing around City
Hall Park. shaft is TO be sunk here
with tunnel out under Broadway, so that
the dirt may be brought out where II will
not interfere materially with the street
traffic. A dumping platform will be built.
with chute out over the sidewalk. so that
wagons may be loaded at the curb
The Degnon Contracting Company con-
tractors for this section, No. 2, which Is to
run from Park Place TO Walker street. say
they do not think II will be necessary to
open the surface of Broadway. except at
night. Another shaft will be sunk on an
other part of the route within few days.
The contractors actually took possession
of the section some weeks ago. when they
opened the manhole leading to the old
Beach pneumatic tube, which runs under
Broadway between Murray street and Park
Place. Since that time the owners Of the
old tube. which was abandoned many years
ago, served notice on the Public Service
Commission that they would stand on tneis
right Of ownership. The city, however,
does not fear that they will be troubled
any by the owners Of the old franchise as
IL lapsed years ago because the owners did
not put their line in operation.
Chairman Wilcox OF the Public Service
Commission said yesterday that some time
ago the commission had about completed
plans for connecting the Steinway tunnel
with the present subway at the Grand Cen
trail Station. The estimated cost OF the
work is only between s1.500.0o0 and ST.
100000, not $4,000, 900. as stated by Com
missioner Cram on Friday. Not only this.
but one-half Of the additional cost of con-
struction is to be met by the Interborough
Rapid Transit Company.
In formal statement Chairman Wilcox
said that Mayor Gaynor had not urged
upon him that the terms already agreed
upon with the Brooklyn Rapid Transit Com
pany be changed II was said that the
Mayor had suggested to the chairman and
Controller Prendergast that as the Inter
borough was 10 put up half the money for
construction work, the Brooklyn Rapid
Transit should do the same.
