HALF

Deed for Property Will Be

The call Of THE Y. W. c. A.. for prac-
ticalIy half cash, on the subscriptions
to the building fund met with an un-
expected response. The entire amount
was not paid in, but s5l,s52 of cash was
received, and has been paid on the
property, the deed to which will actually
pass into the hands of the association
some time this month.

PRIMARY DEFECTS.

The complaint that the Presidential preference
primaries cause too much politics, and are vitated
because each State having them has different law
upon the subject is we'll founded But that such
is the case is due to the attitude of those opposed
to such primaries, rather than to those who have
supported the idea.
The divergence between the laws in many States
is directly due to the efforts of opponents of the
system to emascuate the laws.
1t is also regrettable that these Presidential
primaries are strung along from February to June,
thus compelling a campaign for nomination to as
sumo the aspects of campaign for election.
The exposure of these weaknesses will not re-
suit in the repeal of Presidential primary laws now
on the books in several States Instead it will result
in the best features Of all laws being embodied in
national law for Presidential preference primaries
providing for the holding Of these primaries for all
parties on the same day in every State.
Such law would prevent members Of one party
voting at the primaries of the other party, would
stop the hegra of candidates from State to State in
order to use its decision to influence the action OF
some other State, and furthermore it would abso
utely eliminate the scandals of every national con-
vention, where log-rolling purchaseable votes and
rotten boroughs play such an important part, Under
such law national conventions would assume the
proportions of ratification body.
The more defects opponents of the Presidential
preference system point out-usuay of their owr
creation-the sooner such a national law will be
passed and the rule of the people will become more

To the Editor OF THE TIMES:
Among q certain class Of our other
wise good citizens there appears to be a
lasting hatred for those officers Of the
law known as police, detectives, and
In citizens clothes. However, Washing
ton has the most gentlemanly police
force of all the thirty-five cities and
towns in which / have resided. They
aim to do their duty, regardless of the
standing" of those who violate the
law. OF course II isn't pleasant to be
pulled" for flirting and doing other
naughty" things on the main public
thoroughfares Of our city, and those
who are brave enough to engage in
such questionable performances in pub
lie places Should also be brave enough
to stand the consequences when they
get before our impartial judges. It is
largely due to the promptness OF the
Washington Police Department, backed
by the courts, that more lawlessness OF
this nature Is not carried on. or course,
those whose early Christian training
things in a different light from those
Hoyle." Taking them as bunch,
Washington policemen are not such bad
fellows, and the only trouble now is
that our alleged economical lawmakers
have not provided the number required
to properly police the city, or the
''firts" and "mashers" would no doub,
have occasion to do more "squealing.
Connect yourself with some good church
or synagogue, and get out of bad habits
and the policemen will look good to you

WHO IS THE DICTATOR?

The possibility Of a dictator does not exist in

having open hearings in the contested seats at Chi

The germs of a dictator are found in that man
who opposes Presidential primaries and who regards

WHAT TO EXPECT.

Taking the public into its confidence, conduct
ing its business above board, playing the game in
the open, appears the one thing above all others,
and more than all Others that the Taft Administra-
ton abhors-and fears!' .,'.''''' '''"'''''
There has been a regular flood Of notations "in-
compatible with public interests attached to the re-
fusals Of various departments to transmit informa-
ton concerning public affairs to Congress during
this Administration. ''...
Tafts deliberate suppression of the Lawler
memorandum in the Ballinger hearings is a com.
pete index to his Administration.
Only recently, although repeatedly requested to
do so by officials of the Harvester trust the Admin
stration has refused to make public the correspon-
dence it has conducted with that organization within
the past two years, although at the same time it has
not hesitaed to make public not only official corre-
spondence of Roosevelts Administration, but also
private correspondence relative to the Harvester
trust which Taft is attacking.
Now the proposition seems to be that in hearing
the contests that will determine the complexion Of
the Republican national convention, il is the de-
termination Of all connected with the Taft organiza-
ton to hold star chamber proceedings and to con-
duct these hearings as become star chamber pro-
ceedng-hearing much or as little OF the evidence
in existence as suits the whims and the predeter-
mined opinion of the Taft committeeman.
lnlS pohCy mas aIeauy prevailed III otate CoN-
ventions controlled by Taft lieutenants, and at these
conventions the Taft organization decided it was
incompatible with the interest of the public and very
inimcal to the candidacy of Taft even to hear any
evidence that might embarrass them.
Not letting your right hand know what your left
hand is doing is proper in works Of charity but in the
administration Of the affairs of nation and in the
making up of the list Of delegates ghtfully entitled
to seats in great national convention, it betrays
neither caution nor humility Of spirit II is an open
confession that the light of publicity will penetrate
the fmsy habiments and disclose skeleton instead
of man of flesh and blood.
Not so much because the Taft Administration
has made mistakes; not so much, even because il
has proved itself reactonary, has it fallen into dis
repute among the people. The mistakes would have
been excused had they been frankly admitted The
reactonay deeds could have been defended had they
been committed with boldness that argued sincerity
1t is because the Taft Administration has sapped
and mined and burrowed and worked underground
because it has been left-handed and weasel-worded
that has earned for itself the disrust Of the people
BY just such processes it may force the renomina
ton of Taft by the party, but it will earn for the
party the greatest defeat administered to any
political party in the history Of American politics.

PARMALEE DROPS TO
DEATH IN THE WEST
Safest" OF Aviators Killed When
Machine Tumbles in Wash
ington State.

NORTH YAKIMA, Wash. June g.
With a smile and q wave OF his hand
to the thousands who watched him in
his aeroplane. Philip o. Parmalee took
the air in the teeth OF a gusty west
wind here late yesterday afternoon.
A few minutes later his broken and
lifeless BODY was dragged from beneath
the wreckage Of his biplane in an apple
orchard in the lower end OF the Mckee
valley. two miles from his starting
point. The exact cause Of his plunge
to death probably never will be known.
As he rose from before the grand
stand at the fair grounds, Parmalee
swung to the west over the Yakima
river. He rose to a height OF about
400 feet, and his speed increased to al
most q mile a minute, although II was
noticed that his plane dipped and rolled.
and seemed TO be controlled with diffi-
Guilty.
1t is thought by Parmalee's mechan-
icians that q sudden gust from one of
the draws or small canyons that notch
the sides of the valley struck the ma
chine and rendered the elevating planes
unmanageable.
Parmalee was twenty-seven years old.
He was born in Michigan and was
at Ann Arbor. He proved the military
value OF the aeropIane by flying from
Eagle Pass to Laredo, Tex, with a
passenger and a full military equip
ment.

Owner of Small Craft and

Haller and Mrs. Sarah Nelson lost their
lives, will be made by the grand jury.
Assistant Prosecutor 8. McComas
Hawken. who represented the Govern
ment at the Coroner's inquest, will pre-
sent the case to the grand jury
Blame for the accident was placed by
the Coroner's jury at the morgue yes
terday on Arthur w. Simpson, owner OF
the launch Lofts. which was rammed
by the excursion steamer Angler, and
Charles Toepfer. who was at the tiller
OF the small craft when she was hit by
the larger boat. Justice Stafford fixed
bond In the sum of 5000 for Simpson
and 5000 for Toepfer.
The Coroner's jury returned a verdict
that the accident was due to the negli-
gence OF the two men. Simpson ad-
mitted on the stand that he had no rum
ming lights burning on the boat, and
that he knew this was In violation of
the navigation laws. Toepfer stated
that he saw the Angler bearing down
on the LAUGH when she was a mile
away, but paid no further attention to
the steamer until she was almost upon
the launch.
On the Wrong Course.
Claude Burlingame, q sailmaker al
the navy yard, and another member OF
the launch party. took the stand when
the inquest was resumed yesterday and
testified that Toepfer was steering in
the wrong course shortly after the
luanch left Marshall Hall. He said he
called Simpsons attention to the manner
in which Toepfer was handling the till.
er. Simpson told Toepfer to steer
straight, Burlingame said, but allowed
him to remain at the tiller.
There we're several discrepancies In
the testimony OF the Ave men on the
launch. Simpson. asserted that he was
working constantly at the engine fol
an hour before the accident. Bur.
