ness at the best II Is boomerang now, Of the most
annoying sort
The pharisaical attitude Of the Wilson campaign
from FIRST to last has been exposed as 4 cleverly
staged humbug. II turns out that Wilson, despite
the pleas Of poverty that were raised In his behalf
had moro campaign funds, in his Hght for the
nomination, than anybody except Taft himself There
was evidence Of this all the way through; but the
Wilson people by dint Of persistent misrepresentation
and the assumption Of a virtuous poverty, managed
to fool some people into the belief that they were
rather holier than anybody else II would be inter-
eshng to know what Mr.. Bryans thoughts were
when he learned that the man in whose behalf he
denounced the princes Of privilege" at Baltimore
had been most extensively favored with their backing.

Nearly everybody in town who dimes
out knows Gustave, who ever since the
opening Of the Willard. has been maitre
de hotel there. but the seeker for Gus
tave will no longer find him in the
regions Of Peacock Alley. Beginning
yesterday. he has hotel OF his own,

OF good living and good cooking will be
made by the grill room where the COM

~ a huge electric grill where they may
be cooked. Scores Of Gustave's friends
called on him yesterday or made

THE SLOW REGISTRATION IN NEW YORK

New York voters have four days Of registration,
Of which three have passed Republicans and Demo-
crats are startled the lack Of interest which is
atested by the great reduction in number Of regis
trations as compared to former years. The city
totaed $4,000 fewer registrations, in the first two
days, than in the corresponding two days of 1908,
and $1,000 fewer than in the same two days Of 1904.
Apathy Of Republican voters is the reason gen.
eraly assigned for the reduced registration. 1t is
vet three weeks until election. The mass Of Repub-
licans recognize that their party has no place at all
in the running, and too many Of them seem satisfied
to accept that and take part in the election This
is a mistake. Not to register, and not to vote, is
to acquiesce in the possibility Of Democratic vic
tory That is the very thing that no former Repub-
lican should do 1t IS we'll for Republicans to recog.
nize that the Taft party has no chance to win; but
that is no reason for a sudden discouraged accept.
ance of Democratic victory as inevitable. There
are two candidates in this race. Colonel Roosevelt
and Governor Wilson. If the people who are on
principle opposed to Democratic policies toward busi-
ness, who recognize that the narrow Democratic
view Of national problems from State-sovereignty
standpoint who recall the msfortunes that business
has suffered under Democratic rule will stand
together, Roosevelt will be the next President All
tide Of enthusiasm in proof Of purpose to support
the Progressive candidate. New York's short regis
tration does not mean Democratic victory, BY any
means. 1t means that people disgusted with both
the old parties taking less interest in the CAM
paign. Supporters Of Roosevelt have a monopoly
of the enthusiasm, the real zeal and ardor this year.
The slump from the old parties is in truth bigger
than the figures make 1t look, for many thousands
of the former adherents Of those organizations are
registering in order that they may vote the Pro-
gressve ticket. 1t need not be seriously feared that
the Progressives are failing to register They are
the particular people who are attending to that duty
The big end Of the loss In New York city is
attributed to the Republicans, and indicated by the
fact that it is sustained in those districts that ordi
, narily are strongly Republican. This ought to be
conclusive proof that Taft is not serious candidate
1t is timely warning that the country faces necessity
Of choosing between the Progressives and the
Democracy. choice by default would mean Democ-
racy; choice representing the real preference and
the substantial interests of the people will mean
Roosevelt.

MR.. McoRMIcK's SUPPORT OF WILSON

1t is rather grim joke on the Wilson campaign
management that it should be compelled at this stage
to expose the fact that of its largest contribu
tons, in support of the pre-convention fight came
from Cyrus H. Mccormick, president Of the Inter-
national Harvester Company. Not because there is
anything improper about Mr. Mccormick giving, but
because the Wilson and the Taft managers have
united in a desperate effort to arouse prejudice
against men like Mr.. Mccormick, and their partci-
patton in the campaign. 1t was cheap enough bust
