SAVES TIME AND LABOR

Through service between Quincy
and Burlington will be inaugurated by
the Carnival City Packet Co. as soon
as the new lock is completed at Keo-
kuk, was the announcement made by
]. B. Hutchinson, local agent of the
line OF steamers. today. Although the
service will be something new to the
cities intermediate between Burling-
ton and Quincy, 1t is something the
officials of the boat company have
thought of for some time and will
mean saving of labor as well as time.
The plan is to have the Keokuk
and Black Hawk, local packets, run
on opposite schedules. The Keokuk
will leave Burlington at the time the
Black Hawk departs from Quincy or
wise versa. The boats will lie over
in Keokuk at night and depart the
next morning for the respective ter.
minals This will mean that freight
and passengers on the boats will not
have to be taken into the warehouse
at Keokuk but the cargo will remain
on the boats as 1t was shipped from
the two extreme points.

Business Is Liaht.


The report goes forth that business
for the local packets is not as heavy
as it usually is at this time of year, due
to the fact that the new lock is under
construction and it is not possible to
make Burlington by water at the
present time
The Black Hawk is running every
other day from Burlington to Nauvoo.
On Sundays the boat runs to Hamil-
ton and ties UP at a temporary landing
about three hundred feet above the
end of the dam on the Illinois shore.
Should business increase and traffic
warrant it, some kind of a boat land
ing will be constructed at Hamilton

of that place have taken up the mat.

The 100000 members of the Order Of
Railway Conductors and Brotherhood
of Railway Trainmen on the eastern
systems who voted to strike unless the
roads granted their demands have ask
ed for 20 per cent raise in wages and
better working conditions.
Through their conference committee
the railroads refused the demands on
the ground that the raise would
amount to $17.000.000 annually and
they can't afford to pay this sum. The
employees offered to arbitrate under
the Erdman act but the roads refus-
ed until the act was remodeled. This
has been done.
Forty-two railroads are affected.
They control $4,000 miles of trackage
and include every system traversing
the territory east of the Mississippi
and north of the Ohio river and Chesa-
peake and Ohio railroad to the Cana
dian line. They serve 100000 per-
sons.
When the question of strike was
put to vote 72.473 declared in favor
of leaving the service and APO were
recorded as being against such action.
Every road ratified the strike vote.

THE PROFESSOR IN MEXICO
Is He To Be Allowed to Force War
Upon the United States?

To the Editor Of The Tribune.
Sir: What is il that the dear professor
wants in Mexico? VIII some one kindly
cnlighten me as TO what earthly business
il is OF his to NEEDLE in the affairs OF
another nation?
His schoolboy tactics have gone far
enough. DO the people OF the United
States intend 10 sit quietly by and allow
this accidental President 10 force war
upon them without one word Of protest?
But for Wilson'S self-sufiiciency and OBJ
stinacy all this trouble could have been
avoided There are those who may think
his high sounding words have a ring of
sincerity. but hts actions prove 10 the
contrary.
There are many who know Mexico and
Mexicans but IL is a well known fact that
Wilson will listen to no one whose opln-
ions do not agree with his. He accepts
the views OF one John Lind In preference

from ten 10 thirty years in the Mexican

What is Wilson's object? All this talk

dent OF Mexico. The whole Mexican az

Will the Tiger Come Back?

In reply to The Evening Standards rather
typically British comment Tuesdays victory in
New York. that "Tammany has been beaten be-
fore but has always returned to the field as strong
as ever" we should like to quote Mr.. McAneny S
remark on Tuesday night, when Tammanys de
feat was first seen to be overwhelming:
This is the first time in the history of the city of
greater New York that non-partsan administra-
ton has succeeded itself and il is outcome full
of promise for New York. We may now look for
ward 10 a steady improvement in the government OF
the CITY and to the final and complete overthrow
of n machine which has dominated our political af-
fairs for century or more.
An English editor has every excuse in our com
plicated form of government and frequent elections
for missing the significance of this last engufnent
of Tammany. He of course, could hardly be ex-
pected to class the Mayoralty election OF 1909 as
a Tammany defeat, though such it undoubtedly
was And even if he had grasped this fact he
would have found it impossible to dissociate the
Democratic sweep of the state last year from city
politics.
The fact is. however. that Tammany has not al
WAYS come back and the best evidence Of it is
Tuesdays plurality. And its return was never
more improbable

The Terrible Tango.

The tango led an awful life when it first reached
these shores 1t came heralded something un-
speakably wicked-one of those awful South Amer
lean things Also it was a vulgar dance Of the
populace Only the bold, bad spirits went to see
it, the rest stayed at home and damned it.
Now the tango reigns supreme. 1t has come,
been seen, and has conquered. Everybody is try
ing to win grace enough to do it properly. There
is even talk of standardizng its infinite variety OF
steps. And, lastly, NJ. Jean Richepln defends It
before the French Academy
We have not space to give all Of this learned
address NJ Richepin boldly called his piece THE
Tango" Much of It devoted to showing the
relation Of dancing to mathematics and philosophy.
Getting nearer to the present, he took up the ac-
cusations against the tango. AS to It's improperly,
improperly never depended upon the dance. but
only on the dancers AS to its popular origin.
every dance even the most delicate and arsto-
cratic had its origin in the people.
Finally NJ Richepin hoped that France would
never become as 1.-The danceess land in which
the Cyclops lived. TO the contrary:
Let us welcome everything which prevents so sad
thing everything that adds life to the ancient
tradition by which France gives fresh existence to
ancient Greece because she is still country where
dansant" where indeed men even dance and
die.
So is Immortality thrust upon the tango

Getting Ready at kieff.

The massing of troops at Kieff is ominous With
grim irony it is described precautionary
measure In case OF anti-Semitic outbreaks. But
can there be any doubt of the latter? What was
the ritual murder" trial trumped up for If not
TO give occasion for pogrom?
The massing of troops signifies the consistent
execution of the plan. Troops are usually drafted
for service in pogroms They are needed. Unless
they were there the Jews might turn upon their
prosecutors and get the better of them, as they
did in the days of the irst pogrom organizer,
Hannah of Shushan.
Besides which the troops naturally want their
share of rape and loot in the preparation OF
which they show themselves exceptionally efficient
And at Kieff the opportunities will be even greater
than they were at Kishneff.

Mr.. Whitman's Friends.
So is Immortality thrust upon the tani

Who are these friends" who, if the threats
which District Attorney Whitman has been receiv-
ing are to be taken seriously, will be harmed
by his perseverng in his hunt for secret cam
pagn contributions? 1t is not so easy now as 1t once
was to distinguish between the District Attorney
political friends and foes, since he came near being
reelected by reclamation, but it should not be
difficult to distinguish between his friends and
friends
Does political Endorsement constitute friend
shin? DO few crates Of favorable ballots cement
the bond? If so, Woodrow Wilson would be COM
PEELED to acknowledge Tammany as his friend.
And surely the Tiger no more truly forced
into supporting Wilson than it was into supporting
Whitman.
In the last analysis the friends of either of these
men are those alone who seek to hold up the
hands Of both in their efforts to give an honest
and fearless administration Of their trusts. Does
this definition fit Tammanyf

Coatrooms and Vested Rights.

Any militant and thrifty individual who here
after attempts to balk the voracous attendant by
carrying his hat and coat into restaurant WIFI
him will do it at his own risk. The Appellate
Division of the Supreme Court has placed nseii
on the side of the courtroom concessionaires by d
decision that no person may recover the value OF "a
garment stolen from restaurant unless II was
checked or otherwise actually placed in the Gus
tody of the proprietor Of the establishment
This is bound to prove stunning, almost lethal'
blow to small but vigorous body of rebels VINO
consistently refuse to submit themselves to the
aggressive activities of the coat checkers. Under
this decision no man will be safe from the UNI
formed brgands of the checkroom or the dei'
garment snatchers unless he wears hat and coat
at dinner-a practice not regarded with favor a'
most refectories. The courtroom privilege appar-
emily has become an institution, and any protestant
knows that the law always respects vested rights
