NoN.REsIDENTs FOR COMMISSIONERS

The suggestion that President Wilson may ask for
such changes in the law applying to the District as
will allow him to draft men outside Washington for
the Board of Commissioners is somewhat startling,
even though he has European precedents for such
an idea
The Times is not yet willing, however, to concede
that the city is so barren of intelligent and honorable
men as such course would seem imply. 1t is true
that for any public Office aspirants arise who
involved but to arrive at the conclusion that the
fitness of some candidate warrants the conclusion
that Washington holds no men capable of filling the
vacancies would be decision which we feel certain
the President does not mean to be understood to
entertain 1t is very unfortunate that the form of
government under which the District is managed is
in wise conducive to the development of municipal
officials the lack of participation of the people in
the directing of city affairs both opportunity
and incentive to either start or grow in an official
career There is no training school, no beginning,
no fostering place for men inclined to the study If
municipal problems and local administration. But
even with this lack The Times feels sure that Mr..
Wilson has not good grounds for conclusion that
there are not men in the city sufficiently able and
sufficiently practical to apply the ideas of their own
successes to the problems which come before the
Board of Commissioners. Home rule is a pretty we'll
established factor of good government Washington
has little enough of it under the present plan and
the choice of non-residents for District Commission
ers would be step in radically wrong direction.
The Washington times., 1913-04-02

latons to back any bill the commissions might draft
to give them whatever additional authority they
might feel they needed in the matter. They pointed
out that compliance with the present law would entail
an absolutely purposeless expense of some S2,OOO,
600 year; that a great share of this would
have to be borne by the public to no good end and
that the railroads would be by muc the less able
to meet the ncessant demands for higher salaries.
Whether this is true or not is beyond the question.
But it is just exactly to investigate such contentious
and reach decision in the light of actual fact that
public service commission is for The New York
Legislature ignores the power of the commissions to
handle the matter; disregards argument and conse-
quences, and with one sweeping measure essays to
settle question the only possible correct solution
of which depends upon exact and constant investga-
ton.
The importance of the instance reaches beyond
the boundaries of New York. Legislation of such
character can have but one purpose-a desire to
make the administration popular with the unthinkng.
This is not government of the people, for the
people, by the people; it is only the politicians hol
low pretense at it. The risk of being fed upon by
such stuff is of those that the public not only
of New York State but of every other State and OF
the nation must always run; and it is greater than
ever now because the politicians exigences are now
greater.

SPELLED OUT OF OFFICE.

Colonel Roosevelt in his recent speech at Detroit
made pretty pertinent application of his reasoning
and theories regarding the recall of judicial de-
cisions.
William J. Macdonald was the Progressive candi-
date for Congress in the Twelfth district, and was
defeated by H. Olin Young when several votes were
thrown out because the ballots on which they ap-
peared contained erroneous spelling of Mac
Donalds name
Just before the election telegram was sent out
to the different district boards of election officials
by the secretary of the Progressive State committee
saying: The name of the Congressional nominee
should be spelled William j. Macdonald" The tele-
gram was delivered in proper form in all districts
except one where, it is alleged owing to a mistake
of the operator, the word "Sheldon' was substituted
for the word spelled" so that the name of Mr.
Macdonald in that particular district appeared in
the Progressive column on the ballot as Sheldon
William J. Macdonald. There were no Progressives
among the election officials; accordingly every one
of tine 458 Progressive in the district cast for
Sheldon William J. Macdonald were thrown out,
thereby changing his plurality of 200 votes over his
chief competitor into minority of about the same
amount and the certificate of election was given to
man who was not elected. The court declined to
interfere and so made itself responsible for the
wrong.
Mr. Roosevelts comment on this situation was
in part follows
The wrong not against the Congressman who
was thus deprived of his seat against the peo-
pie against the right of the people rule. The
the machinery for obtaining justice. When il is turned
into machinery for the perpetuaon of injustice
and cheating in any election is high the

CLAPTRAP POPULAR LEGISLATION.

One can understand why a legislature acting
the sole of protection of the public against
the railroads, and unable to examine each case on
its merits, should pass blanket measures for their
regulation. A State not provided with a public
service commission, and whose railroads were prone
to scrimping on train crews to an extent incompat-
ible with public safety, might justly impose upon
them the obligation to employ three brakemen, say
on all trains In many the number might be
excessive but if there is of dfferentiating
such from Others to make the requirement ap.
plicable TO all is simply to err on the safe side.
But the State of New York has very powerful
Public Utilities Commission service. Its commits
sions have often passed upon the question of train
crew equipment, and they abundantly able to do
so again. and to do it wisely and with full regard
both to considerations of safety and to those of eco
nomical administration.
Why, under such circumstances the Empire
States Legislature should feel called upon to pass
and its governor to sign, bill providing for train
crews of fixed size regardless of conditions of opera
ton. it is difficult to understand from any common
sense viewpoint.
In their argument against the bill, the railroads
offered to extend to the Public Utilities Commission
every facility for the enforcement of adequate regu
