Reform Against Reform.

A singular case of an intended reform operating
to prevent desirable political action is just now pre-
sented in New Jersey The Geran election law
which was enacted in that state at the instance of
Governor Wilson, was supposed to be the most ad-
vanced measure of the kind thus far adopted by
any state in its arrangements for universal pri-
maries as well as for elections
Now. however. it is interpreted to forbid the
uniting of any two parties upon single candidate,
no matter how desirable he may be or how much
the rank and file of the parties desire him. There
are several candidates for the Governorship this
wear who would be equally acceptable to both Re-
rubcans and Progressives, and the nomination OF
some one of whom is generally desired by both
those partes Yet it is held that 1t would be illegal
for one Of them TO be nominated by the two
There is something radically wrong in such sys-
tenn which if applied TO this city would forbid the
naming of a fusion candidate for Mayor Doubtless
il is desirable to prevent the fosting Of an unfit
candidate upon party by boss dictation or manip-
ulation. But where candidates are chosen by all
the people at free open primaries the people surely
ought 10 be able to choose whatever candidates they
prefer.

The Peaceful Navy Builder.

IL is an interesting circumstance that IN the cui-
mination of his jubilee the German Emperor was
acclaimed at once as the preseryer OF peace III
Europe and as the creator of the German navy
Roth attributions were deserved. No other CIVIL
ruler on the Continent has been comparable Win
him in effective influence for peace and at the same
time he has developed the German war fleet from
peglible quantity to the second in the world.
Interesting it is but not incongruous. There is'
indeed good cause for doubling whether the EN-
peror could have been the potent force for peace
that he has been If he had not developed great mill
tarv efficiency on the as well as on the lahd'
With his feet far surpassed by those OF two or
three other Continental powers, his voice In inter
national councils would have been Of minor author
ity. 1t is because Of his unquestoned might that
his irenc utterances are so effective.
1t all depends upon the purpose for which nect
is built or an army enlisted. Done aggressively
with view to conquest it is menace TO peace
Done conservatvely with view solely to self-pro-
lection II makes for the maintenance OF peace upon
the one sure basis of justice. 1t Is In this latter
way that the Emperor has developed the German
fleet and the world has been the gainer from his

find It necessary TO pass upon this point
This is all very interesting. But II hardly seems
important The experts upon design have spoken
and approved the plans The justices have the right
under the law to pass upon the design ana ther
opinion upon the adequacy of accommodations anu
the general suitability of the structure for the uses

confined their opinion TO such points no criticism
could be made In spreading their complaint over
matters of expert technical knowledge and protest

reduced their argument to absurdity.
II is pity that the courthouse should De
