NO DELAY BY FELKER
Thaw Will Probably Know His Fate
Within Ten Days

Governor Felker said that he
would probably render his decision on
the question of Harry e. Thaw's ex-
tradition about twenty-four hours af-
ter the briefs have been filed. The
governor has given Thaw's counsel
until Oct. to file their papers, but
IT is understood that all the briefs
will be in the chief executives hands
by Saturday.
William T. Jerome was expected
here yesterday, but he did not arrive.
Jerome has not asked the governor for
a further delay on the extradition
question, and as the chief executive
IS determined to act quickly in the
matter, Thaw probably will know what
IS to happen to him within ten days.

Rome Was Not
Built In a Day
BY HOLLAND.

THIS old saying is used to
II suggest to the man who
expects immediate results
that great achievements are
not matters of a few moments
or a few days. Rome was
the greatest city Of ancient
times. the city so magnifi-
cent that all other cities
were compared with imperial
Rome.
And Rome was not built in
a day. She was not built in
a year nor in a decade. Cen
turtles were required 10 make
the city what she was, to
give her the deserved reputa-
ton for wealth and beauty.
So regulations and business
institutions are not built I'm n
a day. One advertisement.
no matter how well written
or how well circulated, will
not build a business success.
1t viii merely help along the
good work. That II VIII bring
immediate results is certain,
and It is also certain that 1t
will start I'm motion forces
that viii be felt long after
ward. To make advertising
effective these forces must
be REINFORCED and given i'm
petus again and again. Keep
everlastingly at it II you
would derive the greatest
benefits from advertising.

SULzER PLANS

That Governor w. T. Sulzer of New
York will not only take the witness
stand in his own behalf at the trial OF
his impeachment for high crimes and
misdemeanors but will Guido the
prosecution in his revelations of un-
recorded campaign contributions, tell
ing of at least 300 gifts" which have
never received publicity, was the re-
port here following conferences be-
tween the governor and his advisers.
1t is now understood that Suffers
chief defense will be that he consid-
cred the contributions personal gifts
and their use a personal matter, not
covered by the corrupt practices act
and not necessitating any public ac-
counting. This contention, it is I'M
derstood, will be supported by can
I'D recital of his financial affairs,
backed by innumerable details. BY
telling of many gifts as yet unrecord-
ed, but similar to those revealed by
the prosecution, it is hoped that the
implication of evidence already in that
the governor wilfully and corruptly
sought to hide these transactions will
be lessened.
Startling revelations of political
eraft in the state government and an
intimate and candid recital of Suffers
twenty-three years of public service
are expected to lend weight to this re-
cital.
How the governor can overcome the
admitted opinion that his is a losing
fight his counsel refuse TO say. Sui
ger himself is anxious to tell the story.
and only the strict Injunction OF his
lawyers has kept him from talking be-
fore this.

written out. and IL is his intention TO

recital OF it he viii spare none.
