JINGOES AT 1T ONCE MORE.

The jingoes, ever alert to espy trouble before
trouble heaves in sight, are impressed that the
British government is not acting very friendly toward
the United States policy in Mexico. In fact, it is
alleged that the new British minister at Mexico, Sir
Lionel Garden is practically the agent of the Lord
Cowdray financial interests; that Cowdray was op-
posed to Madero and is in favor of Huerta.
This story of Cowdray influence being responsible
for British recognition of Huerta started long
time ago. There is good reason to believe it is not
without warrant. Lord Cowdray is deep in promo
ton, business, and finance in Mexico. So are num-
Der of groups of American business interests. Every
business interest in Mexico is more or less political
partisan; they all imagine that their home govern
ments ought to make their investments good for them
None has been urgent in this regard than some
of the American groups; and none has received colder
comfort from the home government
If tine various governments should yield to the
pressure of their citizens engaged in Mexican busi
ness, there would very easily be developed huge
international complication That is plain as any
thing could well be; it is very plain that the gov
will recognize it and fight shy of committing
themselves to any special financial adventures.
The jingoes are much more likely to make real
trouble among the outside countries than the 6nan-
ciers. From London come now assurances that the
British government has no desire to interfere with
American handling of the situation; and that assur-
ance is undoubtedly given in all good faith.

BETTER FEELING TOWARD THE
CURRENCY BILL.

TO anyone who has his finger on the pulse of the
currency discussion, yesterdays action by the New
York Chamber of Commerce will be no cause of
surprise That body's Endorsement of the general
principles of the BILL its demand for cooperation,
its moderate but firm inslstence on certain amend
ments are only indicative of the helpful and hopeful
feeling toward the bill that has made itself so marked
within the last week two.
For great share of this the United States Senate
to be credited That the bankers should oppose by
might and main the passage OF hastily devised ana
or less political measure of such vast moment
to their business was but natural and that apparent
indifference to their wishes in particular should de-
velop animosty on their part to the entire bill was
almost inevitable The assurance that they are to
have consideration shown them that they are not to
be penalized for transacting business with and for
the public and that in its final form the bill will be
practical and not theoretical measure is all that
was needed to smooth the waters
This concession, on the one hand and promise
on the other that the matter will be disposed of
expeditiously bring the Government or the public
and the bankers close together Impatient as the
President is for the enactment of the measure we
doubt whether his eagerness will be great as that
of the bankers themselves that they are begin
ming to feel confidence in the outcome 1t is thev
who feel the need of currency reform most keenly;
and it is they who can most clearly how easily
unforeseen events might interfere with the chance
of getting it later Nobody knows what may happen
during the next six months. War with Mexico seri-
Gus disturbance of business as the new tariff law
begins to make itself felt any other serious trouble
in financial circles would render change almost
impossible 1t is we'll to do ones horse-swapping on
dry land, and the conditions under which this
trade is to be made understood, the sooner the
bargain is consuTmated the better. No one knows
this more certainly than do many who three months
ago would have been among the first to urge its
indefinite postponement.

THE MAGIC OF OCTOBER.

The word October con jures Hardly one of us
out is conscious that somewhere, beyond the busy
loon its camp fires rising blue from the thick
cts its censers of perfume swung from tine wild
grape and its brown palm waits to be crossed with
silver

laid his imagination would do we'll to leave the

Of U.S. under the thra of blue and gold October air
swinging along past hedgerows of CRIMSON sumac
and fields of stacked corn, toward the woods brush

cover that Nature knows better than we know
ourselves
Autumn may have in reserve gray skies, bleak

the soul with a of its younger self. which

that somewhere beyond is hidden the secret of en-

Perhaps we are closed upon by the woods; the

A GOOD ROADS ARGUMENT.

An official of the Pennsylvania State Grange, in
very thoughtful letter, declares against the issue OF
S50000000 of State bonds to build permanent high
ways He points out that there is no such thing as
permanent road that is road that will last with
out substantial rebuilding for as long period as
the proposed term of the bonds Further, he says
that even S5O,000,000 issue would build but a
small proportion of the roads the State needs, while
TO build all the roads as modern highways would, he
calculates, about bankrupt the State.
This student of the roads problem urges that a
francial and superintendent system under which
the dirt roads would be properly treated with the
plit-log drag would be in the end practical and
economical for the greater part of road mileage.
As against this argument, A. B. Farquhar York
manufacturer comes out in favor of the bond issue,
and he makes this Illuminating observation:
was impressed with the beautiful roads in many Of
he poverty stricken sections of Europe They told
hat they were too poor afford to three four
lOrses pull one-horse load, the custom in
DIR country.
Good roads assuredly will cost vast sum, and
that vast sum is going to be SPENT later,
for the country has its mind fixed on the roads ques
hon. Good roads are expensive, but Dad roads are
expensive. They cost in tine labor horsefleSh
vehicles, value of products. Good roads mean bet
ter value of the land better society, better Schools
neghborliness in the country. In the end they
constitute of the greatest inducements to keep
the right kind of people on the farms.

ment which, if true even in its substance, should pu

tion to the mayoralty
| Sulzer says that Murphy offered to pay his debts
saying that he could do it and not miss it. But in
that connection Murphy demanded particular ap
pointment for particular henchman of his. "lf you
don't appoint Gaffney you will be sorry" is the way
Suzer quotes Murphy. And again: 1T will be Gaff-
ney or war. Unless you do what want I'll wreck
your administration governor
Still further on the deposed governor says that
''one of the agents through whom Mr.. Murphy most
frequently communicated with me was Judge Nc
Call. Judge Mccall usually spoke of MIR. Murphy as
the chief, and would say to me that the chief
wished such and such thing done
To all this circumstantiaI statement Judge Nc
Call makes most specific denial 1t is promised that
Murphy will follow with denial in his own behalf.

waysof getting what it wants The man it cannot
manage it ruins if possible Sulzer was nominated
by Tammany and refused to govern for it. He PLACED
himself in position to incur the extreme penalties
of the Tammany system; he did incur them Is it
possible believe that before incting those penal
ties Tammany served notice of what it had in store
for him, and offered him the chance to reform? ?"
Nobody with even the most general knowledge of
Tammany's record can doubt that all this happened.
In day of dictographs and Burns detectives,
there ought to be some way of producing proof on
one side or the other the Sulzer story is reasonable
and plausible; but against it stands the seemingly
nexpcable fact that Sulzer did not tell it earlier.
During the trial it explained that his lawyers
insisted that he must not talk. The results of the
rial seem to afford some justification for their po-
sition. They may have sincerely believed that they
could get the governor acquitted IN straight-out
egal fight. The majority of charges against him re-
suited in acquitta On two of them the votes against
lin numbered only one than sufficient to con-
ict On the third which brought the verdict against
lim the majority was larger; but there was close
question whether this charge had any legal standing
It all
Therefore, it is plain that Suffers lawyers might
veil have believed it best for him to talk They
ould urge upon him that if he could win an acquit-
al without telling the WHOLE gruesome story and
hen, being acquitted could use that tale as club
With which to fight his enemies in the future, he
would be well-nigh invincible.
In this view, it looks if Sulzer had staked his
olitical fortunes huge political gamble, and
ost Once more, the public ought to be able to get
the truth of these strange assertions and contradic
ions which have at least the earmarks of probability
