how intensely he enjoys the reading Of It.

favorably with st Nicholas" John

THE LAWMAKER
Albany Has Committed Great
Crime Against the State.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: There is more truth than poetry

There can be no question that If the al
legged representatives of the people were
true TO their oaths of office and truly
represented their constituents, instead
Of taking orders from those who nave
neither legal nor moral right to give
them. the State Department Of Labor
would have been In efficient hands and
such a holocaust as the Binghamton
fire had IL occurred would have been
less destructive to human life than is
now the case
It is hard to conceive greater crime
being committed against the state than
to hold up the appointments Of the Gov
ernor when the lives of helpless factory
operatives are at stake, especially when
the appointees are concededly men or
ability and well qualified for the posi-
ton.
A great responsibility rests upon the
legislators, and to great extent they
are morally responsible for the state OF
anarchy that now exists in Albany, Sing
Sing and other parts of the Empire State.

CONGRESS and the Parcel Post.

1t looks now as if the Senate Committee on Post
Offices and Post Roads would abandon the idea OF
interfering with Postmaster General BurlesOns eX-
tensions of the parcel post service 1t is reported
that some Senatorial experts were annoyed because
they had figured out last year to their own salts
faction that parcels over eleven pounds in weight
could be carried only at a loss. Mr. Bureson says
that they can be carried at profit, judging from
the highly profitable business already built up in
carrying the smaller parcels.
The Senate ought to put away its pride Of opinion.
Congress spent ten fifteen years conjuring up
reasons against developing the parcel post as an
agency of public convenience. 1t was unable to
recognize the practicability of modernized system
long after the public had satisfied itself that the
service ought to be broadened. Its premises and
arguments were all wrong, and it would come with
little grace from either the House the Senate to
try now to hinder the reorganzed systems natural
growth
The Interstate Commerce Commission has ap-
proved the Postmaster Generals plans, it is re-
quired to do under the act of August a. 1912, and
that approval is sufficient and final This is mat
ter in which Congress, in the face of its blunderng
record, should gracefully retire to an extreme rear

Lifting the Lid in the Caminetti Case.

Mr. Mann Is to be congratulated on his successful
fight for a free discussion In the House Of Repre-
sentatives Of the Caminetd white slave" case He
had to fbuster for a week before the Democratic
leaders would agree TO permit debate on Attorney
General McReynolds's queer illusion that It was
permissible for him to interfere with the course Of
Justice in California merely because he was asked
to do personal favor to two other high Off
cias Of the Wilson administration.
It is not surprising that the Democratic majority
wanted to keep the lid on The more the Caminetu
case is studied the more difficult II becomes to
square the Attorney Generals conduct with proper
standards Of official duty. He was warned in ad-
vance Of the gravity of the charges against the son
Of the newly appointed Commissioner General OF
immigration and of the scandal which would be
caused If It became known that the Commissioner
General had exerted personal and political influence
TO have his sons trial postponed. He knew that
here was the proper occasion 10 show that as head
Of the judicial department of the administration he
was not to be moved by considerations Of private
friendship but was determined to let justice be done
no matter how disagreeable the consequences to
Of his official associates or their families.
Mr. McReynolds knew all this and still put doing
a service to the Caminetts above his obligation TO
see the laws enforced without fear favor. When
his lapse was exposed by District Attorney McNab
he took refuge in evasion, and on the strength Of
disingenuous statement from him President Wilson
snned against logic and common sense by Furnishing
McNab for having saved the administration from
the worst consequences Of McReynolds's bunder.
The President ordered done exactly what McNab
had advised doing, and then commended McReyn-
olds for kicking McNab out as critic whose right
eous protests were much too pointed for comfort

who was all wrong and discharge without thanks

STILL IN CRUCIFIXION ERA
Christ Would Be Rejected Now,
Says the Rev. DR.. Eldredge.

The Rev. DR.. George G.. Eldredge. Of
Berkeley, Cal. filed the pulpit Of the
Madison Avenue Presbyterian Church yes
terday. Or. Eldredge declared that men
have been much the same I'm spirit at all
times, and intimated that Christ would
be rejected to-day as he was long ago.
The reason for this is because men are
narrow I'm their learning and in their
views OF life.
THE most tragic thing in all the
worlds history" said DR.. Eldredge. lis
how Christ came when the world had
ripened up TO a time when II demanded
HIS coming. and lie was disregarded and
rejected by His own people. II seems
unbelievable that the world should have
moved on until everything was ready for
His coming and that then Christ was re-
jected But that is typical Of the men OF
all ages and OF our own age. | fear 1t is
quite typical Of us in our day.
"The men Of to-day are like those men
Of two thousand years ago. They had
been promised king OF kings and a
lord of lords, and because they were
given a lamb when they expected a
ruler and tecause they got a law-abiding
citizen they turned away in disgust"
