THE WRONG APPEAL.

Taking leaf from the book OF his
predecessor. Governor Dix is about 10
visit a number of county fairs, at
which he will make speeches. Unlike
Governor Hughes, whose appeals to
the people" on such occasions were for
support Of his policies. not Of any per
sonal ambition. Governor Dix will ap-
peal. if ever so guardedly. for a re
nomination. Though Lieutenant Gov
ernor Conway. from loyalty 10 the
Chief Executive. has dropped out OF the
race for the Democratic nomination.
others have nOt--notably state Enci-
neer BenSel whom Murphy and the
Tammany cohorts would rather name
than any other Therefore Governor
Dix apparently feels that il bchooveS
him to stir up some semblancc Of pop
ular support for his candidacy by way
Of an expression of approval Of his adj
ministratiOn and himself
As usual. Governor Dix Is going
about this matter in the wrong way.
He should not appeal 10 the people.
The court to which his appeals should
be addressed is not guided in its dcci-
sions by what the people want or think
is best for the state Some Of tho GOV

ways Of the political world than he.

THWARTING WHITMAN.

The Indictment yesterday Of seven
men for the murder Of Rosenthal IS
the result of the District Attorney ;
work. and his alone. He has woven q
net about the conSpiratOrs who planned
and executed the crime in order TO
protect the police system and IN
cidentally has accumulated large
mass of evidence concerning the work
ings of the system" itself. MT Nmt-
mans successful exertions contraSted
with the inactivity and what looks
like the carefully misdirected activity
of the police raise questions which
will not down.
Is the Police Department. not merely
"the system" actively engaged In Try
inc 10 defeat the District Attorney :
efforts to uncover the system :
graft and punish the Rosenthal muir
dererS? Al first the police were only
SuspicouSly ineffective. letting every
one wanted slip through their fingers.
Later developments are of more posi-
tive character. What was the mean
inc Of the attempt TO take ScheppS
AWAY from the District Attorney II
was not a mere blunder. First there
was the effort TO reach Hot Springs
and secure the prisoner before the
District Attorneys representatives ar
rived. and then there was the attempt
to divert the prisoner on his reaching
this city to Police Headquarters.
What is the meaning, too. of the ar
rest in Providence Of Zelig as soon as
ii was known that he was wanted by
the District Attorney and of the I'M
usual measures taken there TO keep
him ont Of reach? And what is the
significance Of the promotion 10 a cap
taincy of Lieutenant Cray. who was
in charge Of the detectives in the
CatSkillS that are said 10 have per
mitted Schcpps to escape. II they did
not actually give him warning to fee?
Is it the purpose to reward failure III
this Rosenthal case: Not since this
scandal began has the department ap-
peared i'm a worse light than II does
today

THE ONLY "CINCHER.'

The difference between the result III
the Northern Securities case ana the
results in the Standard Oil and to-
bacco trust cases. between when
Colonel Roosevelt says there Is no com
parison. is that the decision in the for
Iner WAS rendered in the cOlOneFS adj
ministration and the decisions In the
two others were not. That fact makes
the one great blow TO the trusts.
while the two others. as the colonel puts
if confer benefits upon the trusts such
las all of them put together cannot
confer upon themselves.
This shows that what is really needed
10 make the trust policy Of the nation
effective is not amendment of the Sher-
man act. though the colonel favorS It's
amendment. but putting the colonel IN
office so that the enforcement OF mat
act will I've under his control. with
the same courts rendering the same de-
csions the nation will he once more
ms the colonel says Of the Northern
Securities case. breaking UP the big
combinations.
Had the Standard Oil decision and
the tobacco trust decision been handed
down in the colonels administration
they. too, would have been great vic
tories over the big combinations. and
any one saying the things about them
which the colonel says now would be
a hired tool of the great crooked in
tereSts seeking 10 undermine the en-
forcement OF the laws. There Is only
one man who knows how 10 ''cinch'
the biz. selfish interests. and he is the
man who stopped his Attorney General
from attacking the harvester trust.

SELFISH OPPOSITION.

\ Roosevelt man In the House OF
REPRESENTATIVES prevented the consider
alton Of Mr.. Clayton's resolution for a
constitutional amendment limiting the
President TO a single siX-year term.
The only opposition 10 the single term
amendment centres in the movement
70 break down the tradition which has
hitherto been sufficient 10 protect this
Republic from ambitious Schemers
seeking to perpetuate themselves in
office.
A Bull Moose supporter. The Chi
cago Tribune" attempts to make this
opposition seem not selfish hut based
on principle It says:
Let us examine the effect which a
single six-year term would have on the
human nature that Is In Presidents as
well as in other people. Each Presl-
dent would know that no matter how
we'll he served the people during his
single term the people could not re-
ward him afterward. He could expect
no more from them. But If he served
the plutocracy during his single term
the plutocracy could reward him after
ward He could expect much more from
#. e In so far as the One-term
plan touched upon the human nature IN
Presidents it would tend to draw them
from the popular to the plutocratIc
side Of things.
If Presidents facing retirement from
office would be likely to betray the peo-
pie, then nothing short Of making the
Presidency a life term tenure would be
sufficient to obviate that danger For
If a President could be elected only for
two terms, in his second term. at least,
he would, according to The Chicago
Tribune" be tempted TO make eyes at
the plutOcracy. If for three terms, then
in his third term. at least, he might
be found selling out 10 Wall Street.
This country has had its Presidents
virtually limited 10 a maximum OF
eight years in Office. How many Of
them have used their Office 10 make
profitable connections when the inevita-
bic retirement came? There is no pc
culiarity Of six-year term which
would make our Presidents crooks.
