WHAT PRESIDENT
TAFT HAS DONE
Some of the Legislation Ac-
cOmplished During His
Administration.

There has been a systematic at
tempt for years on the part Of news
paper and magazine writer's in the pay
Of the great magazine trust TO belittle
and misrepresent President Taft The
result has been that the people have
an impression that this has been a
do nothing" administration. The
truth OF the matter is that more con
struetive progressive Legislation has
been accomplished under President
Taft than was ever accomplished in
any administration before.
For the benefit Of our readers and
In Justice to the president, this paper
sets out below some OF the many
things he has accomplished:

REGISTER TO-DAY.

This is the second day for registra-
ton. After to-day there will be TIVE
more days-Friday, October Is, ana
Saturday, October 10. If you failed 10
register yesterday by all means regis
ter to-day. Do not put it off until next
week, lest something then interfere TO
prevent you. The polls are open from
Z o'clock in the morning until 10 O'Clock
at night, so there can be no excuse TOT
not registering, except sickness or I'M
avoidable absence from the city. every
one who is in town and going about
his affairs as usual can surely ma tlihe
somewhere between early morning ana
10 o'clock at night to visit the polling
place. If you do not know where your
polling place is look in this morning

vertised.
1t should not be necessary to urge
upon the voter the Importance OF per-
forming his duty this year. Not since
BRYAN ran for President in 1876 mas
there been a campaign ahectlng as
vitality the interests of the people and
the future Of the government as this
years campaign. That first Bryan
election established for time a hlgh
record Of votes cast. This coming cleo
ton should make new one. Let every
one come out and express his opinion
of all that Rooseveltism implies In re-
spect to the foundations Of our govern
ment. And let every one do his part
to save the state from having It's first
Tammany Governor in a generation.
The old and always silly excuse that II
is no use, that the parties are "all
alike" cannot even be offered TINS
year. There is new party, and II Is
not "alike"-fortunately.

NO NEED OF 1T.

Analysing the status Of the Third
Term party in Oregon, THE Portland
Oregonian" said the other day:
The third party is mistake, and in
some places it is joke. Witness the
Multnomah County Convention last
Saturday. It Endorsed" the candi
dates OF the old parties and put up
some of It's own. Some OF the nonni-
nees are for Taft, some for Roosevelt
and most of them for themselves. 1t
is a fine hodge podge of good, bad and
Indifferent nominations. 1t is not a
third party. 1t is not any party.
In the adjoining State of California
the supporters Of Roosevelt and John
son have refused to organize a third
party, clinging to the Republican title
and machinery. In many other states
the so-called Progressives have only
with the greatest reluctance severed
their association with the Republican
organization, and If they had ever had
chance TO use the Democratic name
and column on the official ballot the
struggle to dispossess them would prob
ably have beer as prolonged as 1t has
been to make them drop the pretence
of being Republicans.
1t is a queer party which has not
confidence and determination enough
to stand on its own feet and fight It's
own fight Had there been the de-
mand for new national organization
which Colonel Roosevelt and his adj
yisers assumed that there was recruits

TOO MUCH METHOD.

Every second year in the month OF
October, our neighbor The Tribune
goes insane. Ordinarily The Tribune
is a wise. rational, well balanced news
paper: but in the last month OF every
state or national campaign II becomes
as crazy as a bedbug. The Tribune
has been tottering on the edge OF IN
sanity for nearly a week, and yester-
/ day IL went stark, raving MAD.
Fortunately, The Tribune will be quite
sane again after November 0.-Ihe
New York World.
Crazy. neighbor? Perhaps, according
to the standards of one who regards
Murphy as anti-Murphy. If It is insan-
ity TO think Sulzer a Tammany man,
nominated with the consent and ap-
prevail of Murphy, then we never ex-
pect to recover. II it was delusion two
years ago. as "The World" now says
It was, to think that Dix was Murphys
man and named by the boss, In spite
of the bocus pocus of an Embossed con-
vention, we never got over 1t. Perhaps
we were strengthened In 1t by The
Worlds" saying that The Tribune was
right and itself wrong, and OH June %,
1911. that ''he Murphy nominated
Dix. He nominated the rest OF the
ticket" although during the 1910 cam
paign it was as positive as il is now
in maintaining that the candidate was
the free choice of Embossed delegates.
The trouble with our neighbor is that
il has changed sides so suddenly thar
all the earth looks queer to 1t. You
cannot say one day that you will sup
port no one for Governor who us not
ayowedly anti Tammany" and the next
day support William Sulzer without
suspecting your most sedate neighbor
of standing on. his head and madly be-
laborine the stars with his heels. You
cannot say that Murphy did not boss
the convention Of 1910 and then a few
months later that he did, and again
that he didn't boss the precisely sim
liar convention of 1912, without get
ting the notion that all the world Is
crazy but yourself You cannot say
Murphy must go!' in thunder tones
and then proceed to help him go right
up to Albany and I'll his pockets with
out becoming little bewildered by
the speed of your own mental revolu-
tons.
So when our neighbor looks Boss
Murphy squarely in the face and says
that he is not boss at all, but an
amiable and harmless old pedler Of
shoe buttons, and when it scans Sulzer
and gravely pronounces him one of our
leading anti-Tammany citizens, we do
not initiate its manners. We refrain
from touching our foreheads signifi-
cantly. Besides, there is too much
method here for madness.

lists who hold it better that men shouio
continue to perish in agony than that

his researches is one of the most OAR

ANOTHER NOBEL PRIZE.

DR.. Carrel's well deserved award
adds another to the regrettably short
list of Nobel prizes which have been
received by residents of the United
States. Before the present year, since
the foundation OF the prizes in 1901,
only two were bestowed upon Ameri-
cans. These were the peace prize, to
President Roosevelt in 1905, and the
physics prize, to Professor Nicholson,
Of the University Of Chicago, In 1907.
Dr. Carrel is Frenchman, but has
been settled in this country for seven
years and has done his most important
work-that for which the prize has
been awarded-in an American insti-
tuition. While there may be some ques-
ton, therefore, whether he Is to be re.
garded as a Frenchman or an Ameri-
can, there is no doubt that the honor
Of his achievements is reflected chiefly
upon his adopted country.
Down to the present year, In the first
eleven years Of the existence of these
prizes, Germans have won sixteen.
while Frenchmen have been good
second with thirteen. Ii might al
most be said that there was no third,
for the next on the list was far behind
these leaders. Yet Great Britain's
seven included some Of the most emf
nent names in the world, and they
were distributed among all the five
classes-physics, chemistry, medicine,
literature and peace. Holland, Sweden
and Switzerland were grouped in the
fourth place, with four prizes each;
Italy followed with three, America,
Belgium, Denmark, Russia and Spain
had two each and the same number
went to two international institutions;
and Austria, Poland and Norway bad
one each. AS yet none has gone to
Hungary. Rumania, Greece, any of the
Balkan States, Portugal, Japan or any
country Of Latin America AS q re-
minder Of the distinguished character
Of the roll 1t is sufficient to recall the
names of Rontgen, Curie, Rayleigh and
Marconi in physics; Ramsay, Moissan
and Buchner in chemistry; Behring.
Ross, Koch, Ehrlich and Metchnikoff
in medicine; Sully- Prudhomme, Momm-
sen, Bjornson. Echegaray, Kipling,
Heyse and Maeterlinck in literature,
and Dunant, Cremer, Estournelles de
Constant, Roosevelt and Beernaert in
peace.

and reward which he has won will he
challenged by none; not even, we

THE VERDICT OF THE STARS.

Our old familiar friends the straw
vote and the postal card canvass are
out Of date. They were good enough
for the reactionary parties. But this is
a progressive age, and the Progressives
have turned to astrology for their fore
cast of the election.
THE Evening Mail' in its search fer
encouragement has been over to Hobo
ken to consult an astrologer. Said as
trologer comforts it with the assurance
that Mfr. Roosevelt will be elected Pres
ident in November and that Mr. Straus
will be chosen Governor We learn from
"The Mall" that this must happen be-
cause "at the time of Mr.. Roosevelts
"birth he had the sun in conjunction
with the planet Mercury on the merid-
'ian. which showed he would be elected
Ito positions Of the highest honors alter
''nateiy throughout his life" We also
learn that ''the sun will be on the me-
'ridian during November, which sig
"nifies that the prospects Of Mr.. Roose-
"yelt will be very bright" and that he
~ill undoubtedly be again elected
President Mr.. Taft, who was born
under Venus. VIII fail because at "elec-
''tion time the evil planet Uranus will
"affiict Saturn's place" Nevertheless,
Mr.. Taft is not going to be third, as
the Progressiyes have been SO earnest
ly predicting. 1.-THE Mail'' will have to
get its fellow Bull Mooses to revise
that claim. for the astrologer says the
outcome Of the race will be: Roose-
welt, first; Taft, second, and Wilson.
third, and that Hedges will be second
for Governor
In view Of the luminous and con-
vincing explanation given of the pre-
diction, we do not see how any Bull
Moose can longer doubt. "The Mall"

THE PACE THAT KILLS
Express Package Establishes Worlds
Record of IL Miles in 2 IL Days.

To the Editor Of The Tribune:
sir; The word express" used in con-
nection with transportation. originally i'm
plied specially quick transit and prompt
delivery. II has ceased TO have any such
significance. Here is sample: A small
box, the contents weighing twelve pounds,
was shipped last Monday afternoon by 8
Arm In Broad street. New York. by one
OF the principal express companies to
party In Newark, N, J. The distance Is
about eleven miles. Delivery was expect
ed on Tuesday morning Failing that the
express Offices and the shipper were re-
peatedly telephoned to 60 cents being
spent In that way. the only information
obtained being that It often took three
days TO get packages from New York to
Newark That information came from the
express company's office. The package
was delivered at l0:45 o'clock Thursday
forenoon Two and a half days and three
nights to carry a small box eleven miles |!

be that permits such slothful work as
that?
