Roosevelt at the West Hotel this
month, in condemning the theft of the
will Of the people at the Chicago
Republican Convention, cOndemnins
any beneficiary of that theft and any
one who today condones that thiev.
ery-and the speaker was facing
squarely the very leader of Minneso-
Ia condoners when he used the sting
ing denunciation.
Il trust that our governor will deem
it expedient to reflect further upon
the action of the Progressive commit
tee as not being authorized by the
Progressive party. 1t was not In
Progressivism to have any central
committee arbitrarily to unseat dele
gates duly elected by the voters, and
at the dictation of two or three bosses
to create puppet delegates; and every
nomination made by the committee
will be Endorsed by thousands of cleo
tors before 1t goes upon the ticket.
1T will be remembered, too, that
not until the Progressive controllong
the State Republican Convention last
spring demanded popular primary
vote on the nomination for governor
did His Excellency' make a move to
call the legislature to establish pri-
mary law. The primary is the child

of the voters, and we do not find it
published in Mr.. Stevens circular
along with his other legislative &C
complishments any one reference to
his special efforts for the Negro.
Mr. Halbert when interviewed said
that "he realized that Mr.. Stevens was
friendly towards the Negroes and that
he felt that he could do as we'll for
the race in general as Mr.. Stevens
had DONE" We must admit that many
Negroes Of the North are yet victims
of ancient decisions and carpet-bag-
ger customs. They are not only wedd-
ed but welded to their idols. We claim
that the Negroes Of st. Paul have only
been successful in their postal posi-
tons ETC., according to their aggres-
siveness. Why is it that the Hon.
Fred d. Parker is only laborer, with
privilege to help the Paymaster?
Why did Mr.. Chas. H. Boxer have
such strenuous fight after making
many records in civil service examina-
tions before he was finally appointed2
Why do many postal employees pose
as gum shoe politicians and shout for
Stevens? Why does Mr.. Fred. d. Nc
Cracker feel that every Negro must
vote for his boss" just to keep him
in job? Because Mr.. Stevens Is a
friend to the Negro. What did Mr.
Stevens do for the Pullman Porters
under the Employers Liability Act?
There was no account of his "doings"
in the Washington Bee, or Congress
sional Record. We do not say that
Cong. Stevens has not been a good
Congressman. He Is a power in Con-
gress. He has been interested in IT.

are employed by his appointment?
We do not attempt to say that many
good things he has done, or do we
think that he has bought the we'll
thinking Independent voters Of RAM
sey County by doing what was his
duty.
No Negro who believes that the
future of his race lies in the new
party, will support Mr.. Stevens. 1t Is
expected that all Taft followers will
fall in line, and others may be pur-
chased at market price, but, every Ne
gro who wishes to see his race given
their share of human rights, and such
alterations in the states that will Sc
cure these rights; will follow the pro-
gram of Theodore Roosevelt, whose
campaign in Minnesota was made by
that fearless, honest, and aggressive
leader, Hugh T. Halbert, whose great
est ambition Is to go to Congress, and
to promote the welfare of all the peo-
pie, thereby giving to every race and
individual the right to enjoy life, lib
erty, and the pursuit Of happiness.

NOW CONTROL SALTAIRE
Messrs. Bliss and Loucke Plan
Many Big improvements.

Louis z. Bliss and Otis r. Loucke
have acquired the interests OF James w.
Kingston and Frank A. Hendricks in the
Fire Island Beach Development Company
and Saltaire Construction Company, own
ers and builders at Saltaire.
Bliss and Loucke have been the prime
movers in Saltaire. and the fact that they
have acquired the other two large inter-
ests promises a big future for the de-
velopment. In addition to the many i'm
provemerts already made they are plan
ming to enlarge the casino; an artesian
well for the water works has already been
built to a depth OF four hundred feet.
This we'll will supply the water works,
which will furnish running water to all
the houses. starting next spring
The Saltalre Association contemplates
building clubhouse. several tennis
courts, etc. Ii is the intention Of the
company to dredge deep channel in the
harbor, fiji in the low section around the
harbor and leave a beautiful wide sandy
beach, retaining the natural irregular
lines OF the harbor, which viii make a
water frontage In addition TO the ocean
and bay front Of fully mile.

APARTMENT DEMAND.
BY LAWRENCE b. ELLIMAN,
OF PEASE & GILMAN.

The chief increase In the popularity
Of apartments Is owing to the fact
that the apartments which are most
In demand are new and, therefore
clean, and also have a great many
modern conveniences at a lower rent
than houses with similar accommoda-
tions.
Another very important feature Ia
the fact that in a private house COM
paratively few rooms get any sunlight,
whereas these large new apartment
houses are planned with a view OF CIV
ing a great many OF the rooms q
large amount OF sun during the day.
So far the demand gems 10 keep
well up with the supply. especially on
The East Side. The demand, how
ever, for cheaper apartments. that
rent from 81 ZOO to $4,000, is very
much greater than the supply. We
have been trying TO persuade some OF
our friends among builders To try 10
create a supply which viii meet this
demand, but II will take a long time
20 catch up with a big field which
has not been touched as yet.
All the apartments on the East Side
which have been built in the last four
or five wears rent for from 2.SO up
ward. with one or two exceptions.
Where ten years ago We had one
client who wanted an apartment we
had at least fifteen 1ho wanted
houses. To-day this situation is al
most reversed.

near the entrance OF the Estates OF Great
Neck, Long Island. Ross +. Tucker, pres
ident OF the Concrete Products Company,
is building two houses, to cost approx
mately $4,000 each. Tucker intends TO
show that a permanent and semi-fireproof
house can be constructed of concrete just
as cheaply as Of wood. and more econom-
ically. stronger, damp proof and as archi-
tecturally attractive. Instead OF using
the so-called poured-house process, a con-
crete hollow tile. which, he believes, is
superior to any other type Of masonry
construction Is being used. One OF the
interesting features is that all rough car
penter's labor and woodwork have been
done away with; even the floor joists of
reinforced concrete have been set by II,
skilled labor. The additional cost Of max
Ing the first floor fireproof IS calculated
AT about 500 The floor jolsts are provid-
ed with an open mailing strip. and wood
floors are laid on that. Insurance stats
tics show that the greatest number OF
fires originate in the basement and travel
up between the studding In the wall This
construction eliminates this hazard, at
a cost that Is negligible when compared
with the menace and deterioration Of
wood.

Newark is likely 10 nave In the near
future many more high class apartment
houses. There is a growing demand for
suites in such structures. and tenants
are willing TO pay bigger rentals than

electric vacuum cleaners and some other
popular household coDveniences.
Some well known builders who nave
found Newark a most profitable place Tor
their enterprises are considering Plans
for putting up apartment houses there
that. as regards size. cost and floor plans
will compare favorably with the majority
OF apartment house structures now peihs
built In the uptown sections OF Manhat-
tan. Satisfactory building loans can be
obtained for this work, and next spring
the foundations OF many OF these pro-
posed houses will probably be laid.
For years Newark has heen principally
noted In a realty sense for Its strongly
built and superbly located private dwell

trade districts and for It's great factory

There has been talk OF a surface line
in 9th street. but there is apparently
no vigorous demand for such a line. The
seth street subway will serve as a good
crosstowr. route for this thoroughfare. II
will be near enough. as the distance from
9th TO 5Sth street Is only two short
blocks.
A surface line would not be welcomed
by the majority Of prospective merchants
In the street. as surface cars would help
to delay the movement Of automobiles
and other vehicles In this thoroughfare.
OF course. most merchants at either the
extreme easterly or westerly ends OF
the section would probably be heartily IN
favor of surface cars, acting on the as
sumption that every kind of transit link
adds to the sales power Of retail shop

Some 18th and 5sth street property own
