MAYOR WITTPENN UNDER FIRE.

H67 RITICISM of the singular action of Mayor Wittpenn and the
" Board of Works of Jersey City in granting permission to a
subsidiary of the East Jersey Water Company to Law mains
under and across city property to connect with the mains laid by
the company to BayOnne for supplying water to Staten Island is
increasing. 1T is asserted that the Mayor and board exceeded their
authority, the Jersey City Harbor Board having sole jurisdiction
over the city property given over to the water company. But what
mysti6es citizens is the fact that the Mayor and board acted in the
face of the fact that the city has expended about $4,000 in its eff
forts to keep the water company from laying its mains. and in de
spite of the fact, also, that Jersey City needed Bayonne as a Gus
TONER, to help pay the expense of maintenance of the costly new
water-supply plant just acquired by Jersey City. Mayor Witpenn
and the board have done an important service, too, for the water
snake by placing it in a position to take immediate advantage of
any trick that it may succeed in playing at Trenton or Washing
ton, so their action seriously affects State interests and State con
servation policy.

ing number of party leaders in the State. 1t won't be long now
before the rush to Roosevelt will begin by those who have concluded
TO ayow their real sympathies and by others who have finally lost
all hope of a Taft candidacy and want to be on the winners side
Mr. Taft has steadily lost ground everywhere, and while he still
relies on the unrepresentatiye Southern delegates. on the Federal
machine and on the powerful influences friendly to his candidacy,
there is evidence enough of the most profound apprehension among
his managers.

NEGLIGENT STATE GAME WARDENS.

IN WELLCoNslDERED step is that which the State Fish and
IA Game Commission has decided upon, namely, to recall the
commissions of the deputy game and fish wardens and re-
woke those of men who have been negligent of duty. That there
has been great negligence is manifest to the commission, and the
complaint is by no means a new one. When there were opportuni-
ties for extra rewards for the game wardens there were many more
arrests than now. But the nature of the service done was usually
more of an injury than a benefit. Favored wardens, instead of pa.
trolling the fields and woods to protect game, simply planted them
selves at the ferries to New York and Philadelphia to apprehend
gunners leaving the State with game. They let the slaughter go on
for the sake of getting a profit out of the gunner after he had des-
troyed the States game. AS the fines imposed now principally go
to the State the deputy is not as vignant at the ferries, and, as a
rule, lis seldom in the fields. 1t should be possible for the State
commission to organize a really capable and trustworthy warden
force and a means to that end would be to select men ON strictly
their merits without regard to their political credentials,

Adapt Car Steps to Tight Skirts.
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
In these days of quick Improvements
and modern equipment for nearly every
necessity it Is a wonder that the Of
flcials of the trolley company have not
devised some means of facilitating the
boarding of cars by women 1t Is Diff
ficult enough for the average woman
to climb up the high steps unimpeded,
but consider the ~predtcament of a
tight-skirt disciple laden with bun
dies.
The embarrassment and disadvan-
tages are too distressing to dwell upon.
Nevertheless, 1t seems that the tight
skirt has come to stay, although many
predicted it would not long be toll
Grated. In view OF the fact that the
style has found favor with the fair sex
there seems to be no other way of
dealing with the situation than you
would with a climate-get accustomed
to it. The only solution is the lowering
of the car steps. N. S. B.
NeWarkers Should Watch This Bill.
To the Editor OF the Esening Star:
h Morris canal abandonment bill
is of particular interest to every New
arker, and the public hearings on the
matter should be well attended. Of
course, other municipalities through
which the waterway travels are inter
ested also, but the project is of vital
Importance here, If it We're for nothing
else than the important bearing it will
have on the traffic problem.
For some time 1t has been apparent
that the present travelling facilities Of
fered by the Public Service Railway
Company are inadequate. All the cars
hat can be crowded through the main
objective point of Market and Broad
streets are there during the rush hours,
and still the service Is not what 1t
should be. The abandonment of the
canal may furnish the solution to the
problem if the bed is used for traffic
Still there are many other
of the situation to be consid-
cred, and the bill should not be put
through without Newarkers having a
loud voice in it. WATER RIGHTS.

James Oneal, State Secretary of
the Socialist party in Indiana was
at the Orpheum Sunday evening
and gave his lecture on Scientific
Socialism. The lecture was pleas
ing to the followers of this line Of
thought, and his arguments are
such as lead men to think. He is a
good talker and well posted in what
real Socialism is. Too many peO-
pie are prejudiced at the name,
and do not fully comprehend the
principles on which it Is. founded.
These lectures are to educate peo-
Pile, and start thought. The audi
nece was not so good as it was
hoped it would be, as other at
fractions took some away.

Culver Boys Victors.

At the ball game at the Fair
Grounds Saturday afternoon be-
tween Plymouth High school and
Culver High school, Culver won by
the score of seven to four. In the
first part of the game the Plymouth
boys had the advantage, and start
ed out well, but when the critical
times came, and strong play was
the only thing that would win, they
were not there. However, this is
their first game, and they should
improve by practice. The season
has been so bad that opportunity
for practice has been poor, but if
the boys can buckle down to work;
and keep their heads, there is no
good reason why they cannot win a
good number of games this season.
They have a team that looks like
good strong play could well be ex-
pected.
