PROSE LAUREATE INvoKES MUSE
To the Editor OF The Tribune.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: The sultry reign OF dog days !s
close AZ hand, summers heat and hui
nudity are already here, and country and
seaside have awakened TO their annual
activities Upon city and metropolis there
rests q spirit OF iistless languor. and
vilted humanity moves inactively along
the crowded thoroughfares or reclines
lazily on the benches and grass of the
public parks. All day long King Sol
smiles ardently upon pavemenis and
walls. whilst at night King Jupiter shines
clearly over still heated roofs and spires
With coming OF twilight the overcrowied
trolley cars and the less crowded automo-
blles rush rolsily out Of the hot and un-
comfortable city, carrying 10 country or
shore those who are Obliged by day to
toll In sweltering Office or factory. Be
side the whisper OF some breeze-klssed
pines, amid the pleasures OF some brill
lantly lighted entertainment park or
hearing the sleepy murmur OF the tide
moved ocean, mankind escapes for
vhilc the sultry discomforts OF summer
and he forgets for a while the heat and
humidity of the day just passed and the
sultry reign OF dog days so close at hand.

A MATTER OF RECORD.

Mr.. George J.. Record. the chlet
strategist and tactician Of the Thlrd
Term party in New Jersey, remains
admirably constant to the principles
which have characterized his varie-
gated career. At the Asbury Park con-
vention Of his present party, according
to its chief organ, the plan Of cam
paign which he urged upon his col
leagues was thus expressed:
Let us try to win in the Republican
party at the primaries If We can, but
IL we don't win, then let US put up our
own ticket.
That is to say, the Third Termers are
to pretend, even to the extent of per-
Jury, to belong TO party to which In
fact they do not belong, In order, II
possible to steal its name and organi-
cation. But If they do not succeed In
such theft, they are then to repudiate
the result OF the primaries in which
they have participated, and bolt.
1t has hitherto been Mr.. Records
rule of conduct to remain loyal to a
party only so long as there was actu-
ally or prOspectively something In 1T
for himself, and 1t is quite fitting that
he should prescribe the same ethical
practice for the latest faction in which
lie IS seeking advancement and advan-
tage The lesson Of it all, we suppose,
is that the Third Term party has a
monopoly Of High Old Morality in con-
temporary politics.

UNSELFISHNESS.

1t is perhaps only natural that Mr..
Winfield A. Huppuch should want to
quit his place as Public Service Com
missioner for the I'd District. He re-
cclvcs a mere $4,000 year for his
service 10 the state III that Office, and
has discovered that he must work so
hard that he Is unable to give any at
tention to his private business affairs
IL seems a little strange that Governor
Dix should refuse TO accept the resig-
nation placed in bis hands by Mr.. Hup-
pucL and decline TO fill his place, thus
releasing him from this onerous and
unremuneratiye obligation. Mr. Hup-
puch and the Governor are personal
friends. The Commissioner was man
ager Of the campaign which placed his
friend in the Governors chair 1t
seems hardly the act OF n friend 10
force the unwilling Mr.. Huppuch 10
continue to serve the state at loss to
himself.
But there Is more TO the affair than
that. Mr.. Huppuch and Governor Dix
are business partners. The Governors
friend Is anxious TO leave the state to
its own devices in order that he may
promote the fortunes Of Governor Dix,
as well as his own financial affairs.
Mr. Huppuch Is an able and energetic
business man, for the Governor said so
many times when he chose his partner
to brace up the I'd District Commission.
Thus 1t il evident that IN forcing him
to remain q servant of the state the
Governor is depriving Mr.. Huppuch
and himself Of all the profits which
that master mind would evolve If again
turned loose in tho financial world.
And this for mere $4,000, the high
est salary paid by the state, attached
TO job for which scores of hungry
Democrats are clamoring. The Gov
ernor hitherto unsupported Of being an
altruist, stands revealed as guilty of
unselhshness truly touching in this ma
terialistic age. And he Is dragging Mr.
Huppuch into altruism by the scruif Of
the neck.

POLICE AND GANGsTERs.

The published records Of the men
wanted for the murder Of Rosenthal
are as much an indictment Of the
police as is the murder itself One Of
the men Is set down as a professional
murderer for pay and noted for the
ferocity Of his killings. He cut n man
named keegan "to ribbons and five
months ago shot a gambler named
Bernstein. These are given az his
known offences, but he IS supposed 10
have been guilty Of others, both as an
individual I'm the business Of beating
up" and killing for hire and as a mem
Der Of an East Side gang Another IS q
picbpocket and gangstcr, never con-
victcd Ii this state, though convicted
elsewhere: recently shot up" a billiard
room. Another is the brother of pick.
pocket arrested some time recently in
connection with a wholesale killing in
a gang fight. Another is a "stick-up'
man, making a specially Of robbing
disordcrly places and small gambling
houses.
None OF these men las ever been
convicted, yet they are described as
professional criminals, members Of a
murderous gang, ready for anything
from a hold-up to an assassination.
When any Of them has been arrested
he has always escaped punishment.
The evidence peters out" or influence
saves him.
What are the police for, when crimes
such az these men are said to be in the
habit Of committing 90 unpublished
and the perpetrators are not disturbed
IN their operations? Does the pro-
lection which the gamblers buy Of
the police extend TO the gang men
whom the gamblers employ to keep
rivals out OF the fieldf Why has no
real effort ever been made by the
police to break up these murderous
gangs. which, as the ROsenthal case
shows. are constantly ready to furnish
assassins for hire?

SHARP PRACTICE

Sharp practice" in the bright leXi-
con Of Colonel Roosevelt seems to De
any practice which does not conform
10 what at any particular moment he
regards as his interests. The square
deal Of one instant is the sharp prac-
tice" Of the next.
Mr.. Rooseyelt's latest charge that he
was cheated at Chicago turns on the
calling Of two Massachusetts alter
mates when the delegates-at-large re-
fused to vote He says in The out
look" that these votes "were counted
"only by the extraordinary ruling OF
Chairman Root that when delegate
answers present and not voting his
alternate shall be called to vote, al
ways provided that alternate is a
Taft man and the delegate Roose-
welt man." And on Tuesday he de-
clarpd TO his followers: They snapped
che electoral vote Of Massachusetts
for two more stolen delegates. think
"it was about as expensive bit or
sharp practice as | ever saw INDUCED
"in."
Yet those stolen delegates be-
longed 10 Mr. Taft according to Mr.
Roosevelt himself. Mr.. Taft won the
preference primary in Massachusetts
AIR. Roosevelt repeatedly declared that
Mr.. Taft was entitled TO the support
of the delegates at-large. 1t happened
that ballot complication gave the
election to friends Of Mr.. Roosevelt
under a moral obligation 10 vote for
Mr. Taft They refused to abide by
that obligation and said they would
violate their instructions. Mr.. ROoSe-
welt at first lectured them Oh the in
fanny Of this conduct and urged upon
them their duty TO support Mr.. Taft
When, however, his situation become
more acute, he was ready 10 use these
men. and, in spite Of his preaching,
sent them into the convention to VIC
late their instructions and TO sit silent
refusing to vote. Then It became
sharp practice" TO call on the men
chosen by the voters or MASSACHUSETTS
to represent them If the delegates
failed to perform that duty.
And. by the way, how did Mr.. Root
know these silent delegates We're
Roosevelt men? They were instructed
for Taft. Mr.. Roosevelt had told them
they must vote for Taft. Had Mr..
Root any reason TO suppose that Mr..
Roosevelt had abandoned the square
deal" and was stealing delegates
who. he declared, as a matter Of the
highest morals belonged to Taft? Was
It so notorious that Mr.. Roosevelt had
turned 10 "shGrp practice" and came
into the convention with unclean
hands, that Mr.. Root should have
known that the calling Of two al
teruates to vote in place Of the two
Taft instructed delegates failing 10
perform their functions was a theft
from Mr.. Roosevelt? What has Mr..
Roosevelt been saying lately about the
righteousness Of recovering stolen
goods?
