THE POLITICAL SITUATION

In the center of the political whirl-
pool is William Sulzer, impeached and
convicted ex-governor of New York.
The man has had an interesting his
tory. His father was German who
fought for constitutional liberty IN
Germany, was imprisoned, escaped,
and came TO this country, His mother
was Irish. Although lawyer by pro-
fession he has been in politics ever

been beaten at the polls. Perhaps,
howey er, he did not expect the Gov
ernorship to be the climax. He was
credited with hoping that he would
step from the GubernatoriaI seat into
the White House.
II il curious thing that a catas-
trophe' which would have driven other
men into retirement has made Sulzer
more prominent than ever. This is
however, of Suffers ca
reer. He is a mixture of egotism.
bravado and hypocrisy. He is the sort
OF man who is either a hero or a
Inave, according to the point of view.

Suffers Fatal Mistake.

In Sulzer's case the pitcher weni

Sulzer, like every one else who holds
a State -er national elective Office in
New York City, owed much to Tam
many. tfIe had played fairly to Tam
many while in Congress, and Murphy,
although desiring Dix, accepted Sulzer
as the, Democratic nominee for Gov
ernor. Z Having been elected, Sulzer
apparently weighed in his own mind
the political advantages of remaining
with Tammany or becoming an appar-
ent champion of honest popular gov

course would help him most. There

HOW TO COLOR A MEERscHAUM
Careless Advice MIsIeads smoker
Who Coyets n Deep Glossy brown.

Who CoSets n Deep Glossy Brown.
John Glossinger. president Of the Man.
haitian Brier Pipe Company, who, the
United States Tobacco Journal says, is
an authority on all sorts of pipes. has
written for that journal an interesting
piece OF advice on, how to care for a
meerschaum pipe. The occasion for his
advice was recent controversy among
the ever ready and voluntary correspond
ents of the daily newspapers, in which
several bits OF what he calls careless ad-
vice were given. He especially rejects
the old idea that a meerschaum pipe
should be tightly covered with buckskin
II II is to be colored to the deep glossy
brown so dear to the smoker who thinks
as much about the appearance of his
pipe as he does about the quality OF to-
bacco which he puts In it.
The worst possible advice to a meer-
schaum smoker is that he cover the pipe
with buckskin, and yet very great num-
Der OF people believe this to be impera-
tive" says Mr.. Glossinger "Meerschaum
Is porous mineral. and the only possible
way in which IL will color with nicotine or
juice, or whatever you want TO
call II, Is for the surface TO remain freely
exposed TO the air. The way these pipes
are made nowadays a thin coating of
transparent wax is placed over the out
side of the bowl and the stem, too. IL
that is of meerschaum. The nicotine IN
soaking from the inside of the bowl
through to the surface meets this wax
and colors the exterior in the fanciful
shades so highly priced by the confirmed
pipe smoker. But when a buckskin cover
Is placed on the pipe, ostensibly to pro-
tect the bowl, the heat from within
when the smoke curls upward melts the
wax covering into the buckskin and rem
ders the outside shell of meerschaum
liable to dirt and in fact anything but a
pretty color.
THE best possible way for a meer-
schaum to be colored is for the smoker to
use false bowl, and never smoke in the
pipe itself 1t is well to pack tobacco
tightly in the real bowl. insert the false
bowl and then pack with tobacco and
smoke only from the latter The heat
will be transmitted moderately to the
tobacco which Is in the real bowl, but
which is not burning. and juices there
from will be exuded TO color the pipe in
The most approved fashion.
False bowls make caIabash pipes DOS
sible and they serve admirably for the
ligh-priced meerschaum which the smok-
er prizes. Just as a caIabash would burn
through in no time il false bowl were
not used. direct burning in a meer-
ichaum chars the stone instead of color
ng it,

A Contradiction of Characteristics.

The men who believe in Sulzer laud
him to the skies To them he is the
epitome of honesty, sincerity. and
courage. There are others who cali
him the DR.. Cook of politics, an ar
rant fake, a blatant demagogue.
TheJe. is no doubt that when he
came TO Congress he was looked upon
as d joke and even after serving many
terms there were many who refused
to credit him with a single redeeming
quality When he talked he in
dulged in d style of oratory that, as
somebody said, was an exasperating
bog OF ebombast. One speech which
he delivered in advocacy of a light
upon the Statue of Liberty contained
the announcement that he was the
friend of liberty and of the people.
He was always posing as the peoples
friend. and he said it so often that
he finally got the masses to believe it.
The executive mansion at Albany, it
will be. remembered, became during
his administration the peoples house
There Bsa, always something extreme
l. dcmagogic about his attitude. Some
low IL other what he did never
seemed. 10 ring true.
And yet to every movement which
he espGHsed he gave energy and life.
He wEs always one OF the strongest
supporters Of the direct election of
United States Senators by the peo-
pie, which is now accomplished, and
ne also earnestly advocated the in
come tax and the parcel post, both of
which are established by law. He
came INTO the limelight through his
denunCiatIOn of Russia on account of
that country's discrimination against
American Jews and his activities in
this regard led TO the abrogation of
the treaty with Russia. 1t does not
detract from the credit which has |
been given him in connection with
this matter to know that the resolu-
tion Which bears his name was in
realityS prepared by Representative
Goldfogle of New York, who thought |
that it would have more weight if
presented by some one not of the
Hebrew. faith.
So that, even if Sulzer is she'll
game imitation of Lincoln. as one OF
his critics has asserted, there is no
doubt that he has worked hard to &C

GREEK HIGHLANDERs.
from the Boston Transcript.

N'"ih uie Dcoton ITdnscIlpt-
The Evzones. the Greek highland
troops, who have been in the news lately,
owe their peculiar costume to the South
ern Albanians. Albanian is still spoken
by about 10 per cent of the people Oh
Greece; and in former times ii was very
widespread; indeed, the Grekes of the
mainland have probably nearly as much
Albanian as Slavonic blood in them, and
very much more OF either than of the
blood of the ancient Greeks. The Al
banians proved themselves the doughtiest
fighters during the Greek war Of inde-
pendence nearly century ago, and hy
one of the little ironies of history, the
Albanian pirates of Hydhra and the Al
banian brigands of Suli came to be looked
Upon In Europe as the chief exemplars
OF modern Greek patriotism and courage
The Albanians of Greece wore a dress
very similar TO that OF their kinsmen of
Southern Albania, the Tosks OF which
the most striking feature Is the ftis-
tanella, or. kilt; and IL was not unnatural
that when the new Greek kingdom was
the costume OF the heroes of
the war of Independence, which was the
costume of the Albanian peasants all
around the capital, should be adopted as
the national dress. King Ohio. the first
of the new state. wore the fus-

The Fight Against Tammany.

Armed with a popular Endorsement
of more or less value Sulzer has en-
tered upon a campaign against Tam
many.
Tammany will certainly not under
rate this antagonism. As long as he
has tongue in his head Sulzer will
be dangerous enemy. He is not
overscrupulous in his statements and
unfortunately for Tammany, he knows
a thing or two about that organization.
Tammany's record is as bad as any
thing can be. 1t was bad in the days
of Tweed, it was bad in the reign OF
Croker, and it is not much better un-
der Murphy. In New York, politics
and graft go and in hand. The Beck
er-Rosenthal case lifted the veil from
some Of the crookedness and corrup-
ton and now Sulzer is making charges
which, if not shown TO be untrue, will
be stencil in the nostrils of honest
men. If they are true, Murphy and
his colleagues fatten off the public
money and even judicial nominations
are bought and sold.
Up to the present time the only
answer to these charges are perfume
tory denials. If they are not true,
somebody can be made to suffer in
suit for criminal libel If this be not
instituted, then Sulzer should be called
upon to furnish proof. He evidently
has it, because nobody has dared him

Can Tammany Still Win?

New York City is tremendously
stirred over the fight and the inter
est is spreading throughout the coun-
try. There will be more curiosity on
the night of November over the
outcome in New York than anything
else. 1t will overshadow the election
of Governor in New Jersey.
Tammany is now fighting against
tremendous odds. Every once in a
while, as when Seth Low was elect
ed Mayor, the people of New York
arise in their might and overthrow
Tammany. They~rnay do it again this
year. The task is made easier by the
fact that all the anfi-Tammany ele-
ments are united upon John Purroy
Mitchell. Tammany's majority is not
so great. that it cannot be wiped out
by complete fusion. In 1905 Hearst
came within $3.50 votes of being elect
ed, in total vote of over 10000, and
although Gaynor was elected four
years ago. by plurality of over 10000,
the vote given to Barnard, Republican,
and Hearst independent, was much
greater than that which he received.
1t has been some years, too, since the
tide has run so strongly against Tam
many as it is running now. 1t is ar
gued with considerable effect that if
the Tammany leaders knew before cleo
ton all the things against Sulzer
which they disclosed afterwsrd, theyi
