Chicago, Jan. ia forecast of
larger world shipments other than

today on wheat. At the outset how
ever, the market here was firm as a
result partly of reports that Pacific

Liverpool. Opening prices were un-

Assertions that there was a short

corn easy. May opened Is lower to Is

REFORMING THE PRIMARIES.

Even Colonel Roosevelt's followers are
alive to the monstrous evils of the pres
ent wide open, continual performance
system Of selecting a candidate for Presi-
dent by direct primaries. Senator
Works, Of California, Progressive, has
introduced resolution Of inquiry, and
Representative Norris. Of Nebraska, an
other Rooseveltan, proposes bill regu-
lating such primaries and requiring that
they be held everywhere throughout the
country on a single day. If the nation
is to adopt the new system this reform
should certainly be adopted. The pres
ent plan of stringlng out the elections
paign and adds to its cost and to its viru-
lence. 1t is as intolerable as would be a
national election extending over months,
each state voting on different day. If
that were our system the suspense the
excitement, the disturbance Of business,
the violence Of partisanship at its ut
most as the successive votes Of the states
emphasized the tendencies of the cleo
ton would be intolerable. If the coun-
try is going permanently to have two
elections instead of one there must be
two election days and no more. The pub
lie does not want to have every day cleo
ton day.
If there is to be a general adoption Of
the direct system uniformity is requisite,
and fortunately this is a matter in which
It is within the power OF Congress to
compel uniformity. Mr.. Norris's bill
might profitably go much further in the
direction Of uniformity than the dis
patches represent 1t as going. 1t might
well require that only enrolled members
of the parties should be permitted to vote
at primaries and 1t ought to limit the
expenditure probably little will he done
to eliminate the evils Of the participation
of members Of opposing parties In the
primaries and of the scandalously exces-
sive use Of money If the matter is left
to the states.

sir: | have been taking The Tribune

Durant Drumm, of Fishkill, take offence
at this omission, believing that the editor
OF paper is surely the best Judge OF what
should be printed. Besides. it's matter
of courtesy on the part of editors to ac-
cept and publish letters anyhow. l THINK
that the press of New York City Is very

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Those who say unkind things about
Roosevelt hurt themselves more than they
do the former President To link his name
with that OF Judas a. is done In letter
I'm to-day's Tribune. is TO show ones In
ability In the comparison OF characters
What did Judas ever do for America? The
students of the various political characters
have learned to understand Theodore
Roosevelt as one who practically and ably
loves his country and knows no greater
pleasure than being at it's command in
faithful service.
That Affected" painfully reproachtul
look which the Uncle SAM OF the car
toons bestows upon his former favortte has
no bearing on the case and is not true TO
life Every one knows that II Roosevelt
had retired to some quiet lazy corner the
cartoonist would also in that case have
made Uncle Sam look full OF anguish as
10 what the matter could be. and the ques-
ton would then have been: Is Teddy going
10 die? II President Taft had refused 10
be nominated the people would wisely have
been glad 10 have back again their former
well experienced Executive They who
have watched the Roosevelt career all
along consider him neither Judas nor
prec!pitator OF needless wars. but rather

iustrious son of America. ii. LODGE

EFFECT OF WILSON'S CANDIDACY

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: II IL somewhat amusing to note the
attitude OF the press toward the nomlna-
ton OF Wilson by the hobo convention.
However there is good arising from IL:
Wall Street is compelled 10 pad It's mid
summer wash sales" much more than
usual to maintain an appearance OF busi-
ness before the public. while its magnates
are absent on their yacht cruises along the
Atlantic Coast-"to be within CALL you
know! Constant agitation is rapidly de-
bllitating the Street; this Is the price they
pay for meddling with politics. and the
ultimate eventuation will be the demoli-
ton OF that gambling enterprise. The
Street has been the graveyard" OF count
less cashiers OF small country banks. as
the large banks are rapidly wiping out the
smaller ones and substituting branches"
instead. This is frequently done by using
the name of the former bank which has
been superseded
The public temper Is sorely tried. The
overwhelming defeat OF Wilson will doubt
less result In the final extinction OF the
great commercial ulcer on the American
body poitlc-Wall Street. The candidacy
OF Wilson thus far appears to proceed In
much the same manner as that OF Parker
In 1904 with much more crushing defeat
as It's goal. ALBERT SAMUEL VOGAN.

THE THEATRE ORCHESTRA

The announcement that many Of the
playhouses In this city will dispense with
orchestras next season will be welcome
news to a large class Of theatregoers.
An orchestra TO play during intermis-
sions is n useless expense, which In those
days Of high prices could well be elini-
mated. Moreover, apart from the ques-
ton Of cost, An orchestra TO provide Ell
tertainment while the curtain Is down
does not At in with conditions In the
modern New York theatre. The inter
missions in most New York playhouSts
are burden and the playgoer will be
benefited by any change which tends TO
shorten them.
Our theatres are not so constructed
and equipped az to make pauses between
the acts agreeable. In European cities
SPECTATORS are accustomed tU leaving
their hats and wraps in the Hobbies
Conveniences for checking such impcdi
menta abound. and there are also re-
freshmen rooms attached 10 the theatre
There is also more space between the
rows Of chairs for ingress and egress
and seat holder can go In and out with
out annoying his neighbors.
Here the license laws make the serv-
ing of refreshments impracticable ard
the lack Of courtroom facilities leaves
men and women burdened with the care
Of hats and wraps and discourages any
free movement between acts into the
Hobbies The seats are so crowded 10
gether that pushing into the aisle usu
ally involves discomfort to otherS. VI
not actual rudeness. Under the circulu-
stances the most sensible thing to Go s
to remain seated throughout an inter
mission. and II is therefore important
that the intermissions should be brief
Most Of the successful plays Of the dav
are those which require little change IN
stage settings The old cumbersome
methods OF shifting scenery have been
improved on. and every advance made In
the direction Of simplicity and celebrity
means a gain in comfort TO the audience.
Where there Is no orchestra 10 while
away the intervals with dubious enter
tainment the waits will necessarily be-
come shorter. The ideal play In New
York nowadays is that which is run of
so expeditiously as 10 give no one an ex-
cuSe for wanting 10 go out between the
acts

WHICH FRAUD?

1t will be interesting to see how Gov
ernor Wilson In his campaign Will treat
the tariff principles of his party plat
form. 1t would be more interesting
though painful, to see, If he became
President. what would happen from an
attempt TO carry them out.
The platform starts out with decla-
ration of faith like that of the gentle
men who met in Montgomery In 1861 TO
draft a Confederate constitution. forbid
ding duties except for revenue. Not hav-
ing any such direction in the American
Constitution, however. the Democrats
perforce read 1t In. The platform says;
We declare 1t TO be fundamental
principle Of the Democratic party tha'
the federal government under the con-
stitution has no right or power TO I'M
pose or collect tariff duties, except LOT
the purpose of revenue.
If It is unconstitutional to levy duties
for protective purposes, In the opinion OF
any administration or party, that al
ministration or party will Of course rig
idly refrain from giving its tariff policy
any faint Of protection. SO II the Demo
Gratis win II is obvious that the tariff
will be readjuSted OH strict revenue
basis, duties being levied on articles
which will produce the greatest return,
regardless Of their production or non
production here and of the effect OF their
exclusion or admission on domestic in
dustry. Any other course would be I'M
constitutional In their opinion, and they
wouldn't violate the Constitution. But
hold. A little later in the platform we
read that "our system Of tariff taxation
lis intimately connected with the bust
mess Of the country" We see promises
of legislation which will not injure le-
ultimate industry. OF reduced duties on
the necessaries of life. and an offer to
defer for ultimate attainment" the sys-
tenn of revenue duties held to be pre-
scribed by the Constitution.
| Now. If protective duties are unconsti-
| tutional how can they be maintained,
even for a time? Does Or. Wilson think
that obedience to the Constitution can be
deferred at convenience, so long as con-
science is salved with the thought of
ultimate attainment Of obedience!
/ The programme mapped out by the plat
| form. like the measures passed by the
present Democratic House of Represent
ativeS. is clearly and flagrantly uncon-
stitutional If duties for any but a reve-
nue. purpose are unconstitutional. DO
the Democrats if they come into power
mean really to destroy all protective
duties? If so, why don't they honestly
say so and let the industries of the coun-
| try know what to expect? Or do they
intend to give such measure Of protec-
ton as political expediency seems to
them to require? If SO, why do they
make declaration of vital constitutional
principle which they know Is humbus
and which tho do not mean 10 observe
Which fraud are they endeavorins 10
practise?

CLEANING Up THE COAST.

The call for Colonel Gorgas TO go down
to Ecuador and help II is a Mace
DOMAIN cry to which we greatly hope
this country will he able to respond IA
vorably and promptly. Guayaquil has
long been one Of the worst plague spots
on the South American continent; prob
ably the worst Of all on the West Coast
for yellow and malarial fevers and bu-
bonic plague Panama has had to guard
against infection from it more than from
perhaps all other places. With the open
ing of the isthmian canal intercourse
with Guayaquil, as with the West Coast
in general, will be greatly increased, and
il is therefore Of Importance for our own
protection that sanitation shall prevail
there
The call for American help in cleans
ing Guayaqui Is a recognition Of this
and of the near approach Of the date Of
the opening Of the canal. Indeed, there
is now scanty time for the work Of eff
fective sanitation before the opening,
even If the task should be undertaken
at once. Much may be done in a single
year by man Of Colonel Gorgas's
knowledge and energy; but the work
must be maintained at full efficiency for
several years before there can be felt
the entire assurance Of freedom from
pestilence which the isthmus now en-
joys. That Colonel Gorgas can do 1t no.
body doubts. But In justice 10 both the
nd ba ta 20
thoroughness should be granted. 1t is
not an uncommon practice for one ma
ton to lend an army officer to another to
train IL troops In the destruction Of
life 1t would be a far handsomer thing
to lend one to teach the people how to
save human lives.
The call is well deserved tribute to
the effectiveness of Colonel Gorgas's
work in Cuba and on the isthmus We
have frequently referred to the latter,
but we are not afraid Of doing so too
often, particularly since efforts are be.
ing made In this country to emulate It.
The simple fact that there has not been
an endemic case of yellow fever ut
! Panama since November, 1905, or ut
Colon since six months later speaks
volumes AS for malaria, six years ago
there were yearly 200 cases Of it re-
quiring medical attention to every 1000
inhabitants; many having several at
tacks year. Last year there were only
81 cases to the 1000. That fact deserves
attention from those who still doubt the
possibility Of getting rid Of mosquitoes
In this part Of the world. The secret of
1t all Is, Of course thoroughness. HAS
