Eggs.

With wholesale prices Of eggs advancing any
where from two to five cents dozen in week,
and the market declared to be firm and going
higher, an interesting problem is presented TO the
lover Of bacon and eggs omelettes and such things.
The Tribunes market reports classify eggs into
(, yenty or more grades and the squeamish stomach
hdlts at comparison between ''hennery whites" at
90 to SO cents dozen by wholesale, with the
conscience of the retailer and the purse Of the
"drties," which run from 81 to % cents dozen
by the case.
Dealers and farmers unite in saying that the hens
are not doing their full duty and that really fresh,
laid eggs are scarce; but it seems like rubbing
1t in to make those who cannot afford to pay the
gilt-edged price the victims of that scarcity by
boosting the prices of stuff which has been In cold
storage ever since eggs gut in the market
and could be bought cheapy. Trade distinctions
and the matter of local taste in the color OF eggs
have something TO do with the present abnormally
high price for New York insists having white
variety which do not cost s much, for the reason
that there are more Of them. Perhaps if New
Workers were a little less particular regarding the
shape and color OF the eggs they demand the price
might come down, but at present ii looks if the
prediction Of Is cents dozen would be fulfilled
retail sections In the time, those who invest
in the quick lunch egg sandwich for a nickel" are
taking long chances

Governor Glynn Advocates Real Direct
Primary
Primary.

Governor Glynn could not have discovered
better way to dsprove any notion that Tammany
really wanted him in the Executive Chamber than
by his frank and manly advocacy of a genuine
direct primary law The Governor who advocates
such a law is no friend of Tammany's whether he
does it by appeals to the people and Tia, drafting
of a carefully worked out measure for legislative
consideration, as Governor Hughes did, whether
he does it by fighting fire with fire, Sulzer did
The latter way Tammany understand and is
not afraid of. In promising to follow in Governor
Hughess footsteps, and in declining to place him
self on the machines own level by patronage
dickers and coercion through the powers Of his
office Governor Glynn maintains himself a free
agent When he makes his fight in that manner
there can be insinuation of his having seized
the issue for personal glorication for the build
ing up of fractional machine and he renders
certain his being supported by all believers in direct
nominations, regardless Of party alliance
The Democratic party is pledged, despite all the
oubbles of some Democrats, to give the voters a
statewide direct primary. That does not mean a
law providing for the direct nomination of state
Senators i'm all districts; ii means, and the term
has been interpreted as meaning wherever there
has been question of adopting the direct primary,

Getting Nearer the Bagmen.

District Attorney Whitman has now opened the
way to find out how much went into the bags of the
Tammany bagmen and who ultimately got it.
From Mcclure, who collapsed on the witness
stand at the John Doe inquiry yesterday, and who
is expected to aid the state tn District Attorney
will obtain the first confirmation of Hennessy's
charges that the canal contractors and other con-
tractors upon state public works had been bled ny
iammany agents for vast sums as campaign con-
trbutions which were never mentioned in official re-
ports.
Mr. Whitman has the same hold upon Mcclure
that he had upon the police officers who turned
states evidence in the police graft trials Mcclure
must either make himself useful face charges OF
perjury. The beginning which the District At
torney has made in regard to the contract graft Is
like the beginning which he made in investigating
police graft when the first collectors of it confessed
Mcclure was in a small way collector. And as
a bonding agent furnishing bonds to the contractors
lie gathered good deal of information about how
they were held up by the Tammany baGmen. His
story should put Mr.. Whitman in position where
he can ndict some other agent in this gigantic graft
and thus the truth may be uncovered and those
guilty of the hold-up punished.
When Tammany exposed Sulzer it was exposing
itself He was a true son of Tammany. His ways
were its ways, learned in its own halls. 1t was
easy for Tammany to trap him in conceaing cam
pagn receipts because it familiar with the
practice. Suspecting him of ndulgng in the regu
lar Tammany habit it had little difficulty in obtain
ing the evidence.
And knowing the organization from which he
sprang so well as he did, Sulzer had no more diff
Guilty in obtaining evidence that it, too, had been en-
riching itself by concealing campaign gifts.
1t is now apparent how much the boss over
reached himself in removing Sulzer for disobedience
of orders His power in the city is destroyed in
consequence Soon the state will the last Of
him. His bagmen stand in the shadow of prison.
And who knows how wide the doors of Jail will
yawn when this campaign fund graft scandal is
thoroughly probed?

WALLACE AND VIVISECTION
He Is Quoted as Opposing 1t to the
End.

Sir: Within the last week there has
been recorded the death OF that great
scientist, Alfred Russell Wallace. II may
be interesting TO the readers OF your val

dent NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.. In his recent
book 1.-The World of Life" he says:
THE moral argument against vivisec-
ton remains whether the animals suffer
as much as we do or only half as much.
The ba ! effect on the operator and on the
students and spectators remains; the un-
doubted fact that the practice tends to
produce callousnesJ and a passion for
experiment which leads to unauthorized
experiments in hospitals on unprotected
patients remains; the horrible callousness
Of binding the sufferers in the operating
trough so that they cannot express their
pain by sound or motion. remains; their
treatment after the experiment by care
less attendants, brutalized by custom, re-
of large proportion of the experiments,
repeated again and again on scores and
hundreds Of animals to confirm or refute
the work OF other vivisectors, remains,
and, finally, the iniquity of it's use to de-
monstrate already established facts to
physiological students in hundreds of COL
leges and schools all over the world re-

The suggestion of the Astor House block as the
site for the new postOtice renews wonder at the
delay of the federal government in providing the
facilities which are here urgently needed There
is no other pOstoffice in the land comparable with
this in importance not only to the community
which it locally serves, but also to the whole
nation. for In a large sense the New York Office
is a national postoffice. There is no other approx
mating to this in volume of business or in amount
of profits to the department Yet there is no other

1t is poor economy in dollars and cents as well
as in administrative efficiency and in human health
and life to keep this great establishment entombed
i'm that antiquated monument Of ineptitude. 1t would
have paid the government to get out of it long
ago, and it would pay it to do so now instead OF
waiting for future years. The suggestion of the
Astor House site is therefore timely, particularly
so since that site is now half unoccupied So far
as location Is concerned, that block is in some
respects admirable 1t is the possible to the
old SITE it is in close touch with existing and
prospective transportation lines, and when the old
postoffice is demolished it will be unsurpassed in
opportunity for scenic effect.

obvious is that now is opportune time to con-

that all times are opportune for urging the need
Of promptly providing New York with a postofice

There is a broad appeal to the mind and the

Huerta.

Mr. Asouith makes the Mexican situation clear so
far as Europe is concerned There has hitherto been
little or no doubt Of the attitude of the other powers
but occasional rlmors have arisen of British in
tripres at variance with the policy of the United
States. These have had a not unpausibe basis in
the known disposition of the British Minister In
Mexico and in the equally known ambition of an
influential British corporation to acquire vast oil
land concessions in Northern Mexico. Mr. Asquith
however, with much directness, detail and en-
phasis. makes it clear that those rumors were
erroneous and that the British government means
to keep in entire accord with and, indeed to wait
upon the policy of the United States in dealing
with our southern neghbor.
That is what we have in these columns all along
assumed to be the 1t is obviously TO be added
as we have also suggested that this attitude or
course of Great Britain and the other European
powers makes it all the more incumbent upon Mr..
Wilson to have toward Mexico policy worthy thus
to exercise international leadership. The duty
would he great enough if only the United states
were concerned. With all other nations looking to
protect their interests and assuring us of their
acceptance of our leadership it becomes grave
beyond exaggeration. To he hesitant or equiyoca
would be to betray the trust of the world.
In this view of the every indication that the
administration is beginning to steer course in
stead Of drifting down the swash channel is to he
