THE PRE-ELECTIoN BATTLE
Who Is Behind Mr.. McAneny2 a
Whitman Supporter Asks.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Judging from the present ACTIVITY
OF the approaching mayoralty campaign. II
seems that the most decisive battle will
be fought before election.
Never have I seen so much influence
brought to bear to prevent the nomina-
ton Of man as that which is being used
against Mr.. whitman.
Year I'm and year out we talk about the
sinister influence OF boss, OF how stub
bornly he holds TO the conviction OF do
Ing everything contrary To the people q
wishes. but nothing that can remember
committee.
Mr.. Whitman is beyond doubt. un-
questionably. irrefutably. the choice of the
majority OF the people OF this city, and II
the fusion forces are really bent upon
carrying out the wishes OF the people their
present frame OF mind reflects bad judg
ment upon them.
Again bad judgment is evidenced by the
enemies OF Mr.. Whitman by selecting as
his opponent for the nomination OF Mayor
that medieval faced Mr.. McAneny.
Mr. McAneny's only strength lies In the
feeble weakness OF Mr.. Whitman's enc
mies-enemles because they have felt the
force OF his indomitable will and his un-
relentlng and savage prosecution Of all
wrongs that tend to undermine the very
foundation Of representative govern
ment.
This is surely an age Of nerve II there
are any so bold as to compare Mr.. Nc
Aneny to Mr.. Whitman as TO force OF
character ability, integrity, intellectual
ity and in faithfully kept pledges
Mr.. McAneny not only lacks the snap
and fire and leadership OF big public
man, but he is even deficient OF the most
essential characteristic necessary to win
the approval of the people, and that Is

Getting a Good Start.

Like master like man. With an astuteness which
can be credited to only one great intellect mere
abouts the Gaynor Fusion and Nominating League
has put to rout the executive committee Of the Cti-
zens' Municipal Committee and its demand that
Mayor GaynOr pledge himself to refuse Tammany
nomination by proving that there is no such thing as
"a Tammany nomination" for Mayor.
Tammany, say the leaguerS, is "ony nickname,
and the organization which keeps the fire of liberty
burning on its humble hearthstone in East 14th
street whatever its incorporated title may be- is
only parochial association operating in minor
fraction of the ctys area. Viewed from Prospect
Park Ear Rockaway, the highlands Of The Bronx
or the St George ferry landing, Tammany Hall isn't
even a peck on the landscape, and the league and
It's candidate couldn't And it-at least between now
and Election Day-wthout guide,
Up in Albany the two branches of the Legislature
tremble at the name of Murphy. But the league
and its candidate wouldn't know Murphy from
stilwer If they saw them dining together at Del
monico's The leagues idea of a city convention
TO nominate Mayor seems to be body domi-
mated by John H. MeCooey, Eugene Lamb Richards,
ex-Borough President Cassidy and Eugene II. Nc
CURE.
A league which can eliminate Tammany from
consideration in city affairs as "a mere nickname"
will do miracles when 1t gets to work later on the
legend that Herman Rosenthal was murdered last
year aud other unpleasant incidents occurred later
suggesting the presence Of a few grafters on the
police force. If there amt Tammany Hail." so
far as municipal elections are concerned, then the
present police force is the noblest body Of dealsts
that ever operated under the Golden Rule. There
may be room for improvement In police administra-
ton in Paris, as Commissioner Waldo sagely re-
marks but there is no room here.
The league has made a glorious beginning. 1t
will do even better when Waldo is added TO It's Boy
Scout staff.

OUR TIMID MEXICAN POLICY
An Army Man Sharply Rebukes the
Vacillating Wilson Method.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Diplomats on the other side of the
Atlantic must stand amused at our for
eign policy. I'm so far as IL applies to the
Mexican situation. l use the term for
eign policy" advisedly. for tho reason
that there is good cause to doubt whether
the United States Of America ever had a
foreign policy. This is perfectly natural
consequence OF government by amateurs
When We ask business men or showmen
10 lay aside the habits of lifetime and
assume portfolios OF government we must
not expect the price Of pork or the habit
OF listening for the echo OF the human
voice to be cast into the background and
the horizon OF vision for International
problems at once assumed.
Let US see how tho present admins
tration has handled the Mexican case.
When Mr. Wilson was inaugurated into
office he found the government OF Mexico
In the hands OF a dictator who had
usurped the power. True, he had risen by
a coup d'etat that is frowned upon by in
ternational public opinion. Nevertheless.
he was. and is, the government OF Mex
leo, and at the time OF Mr.. Wilson's ad-
vent as President there was little or no
insurrection in Mexico-only preparation
for IT, Also when Mr.. Wilson took office
there was concentrated at this place
force of 1900 American troops, sent here
for what purpose the Lord only knows.
Let US see how the problem worked out.
Mr.. Wilson refused to acknowledge
Huerta as the head OF the Mexican gov
eminent and this filled "the outs" or
professional revolutonists, of that coun-
try with delight He also permits l20o0
troops TO remain crouched near Calves
ton, and that endows them with conf
dence In word, revolution and brig
andage have increased day by day in Mex
leo since the installation OF the present
administration, and the open hostility OF
Washington to Huerta and the presence
of troops here are the cause OF It.
Ii ought not TO require superior intellect
to understand why the various revolu
tionary bands of Mexico secretly invite
intervention by this or any other coun-
try Intervention means the dethroue-
ment OF tho Huerta regime and the ele-
vation OF the outs TO power. In the
establishment OF government there We
would put fellows In who have long
reconnoitred but never reached the pie
counter. 1t would be the old question of
the early days I'm the Philippines over
again-only on a grand and complicated
scale.
To soldier who has had some expert
ence In the establishment Of government
among people Of the Mexican kidney. II
looks to me as IL Mr.. Wilson should have
at once recognized Huerta and then said
to him: You are In Office by methods
repugnant TO this country and the civil
ized world. yet you are the only thing
that represents government In your coun-
try. You must call an election now,
while there is comparative tranquility,
and elect an administration. or the United
States will come down there and do II
for you" Had that policy been pursued
there would have been an election In
