Sulzer Should Have Got the Secret.

Consider the case OF Mayor Gaynor. who is about
to run for Mayor again. Everybody is agreed that
Murphy is going TO make him his own ant-Tam-
many candidate, as he did four years ago. And we
shall be told on the stump that he never did a
thing for Tammany during his four years In office
except Of course, advise the public to "say kind
word to Murphy"
And all that time all he had to do was ask Ind
have. whether it little charter making him
self Poohbah Of the city that he wanted or little
ripper bill turning the schools to his friends.
And now having starved the organization and fout-
ed IT, he IS TO be rewarded with a second nomina-
ton.
Poor "Bill" Sulzer ought to have got the secret
from Gaynor before he too, started out a career
Of independence, for Suffers only sin was doing
really what II will be said from the stump that
Gaynor did. AS he sees them preparing to tear
him limb from limb, does the Governor agree with
the Mayor that "Tammany is only nickname?

The invasion Of private apartment IN West
10Th street by five Hawkshaw detectives who lost
their way was about outrageous piece OF In
reference with privacy as these free-forail days
have produced.
Everybody has TO put up with host OF new and
strange intrusions at best. The enveloping circle
OF piano players the whole system OF fiat dwelling

cooks-these and countless other factors have com
bned to make the oldfashioned privacy OF the
home a thing OF the distant past Whether we Ike
II or not, a certain kind and degree Of communism
has been thrust upon us
However to have batch Of fool detectives lose
their way on a fire escape and come battling into
wrong and utterly innocent household is altogether
too much. We are glad to see that Magistrate Cor
rigan gave all the invaders workhouse sentence
and spoke his mind about the business Of breaking
into homes in search of evidence. Such reckless
law-breaking, to the risk OF every peaceful house
hold cannot be too severely squelched.

Revolt of the Gang Victims.

II the decision reached at a mass meeting of the
East Side Neighborhood Association can be car

will do more to break up the blackmaiers than

Japan's Rebuff to Huerta.

Japan has her own reasons for declining TO re-
ceive General Huertas special envoy, which she
is not called upon to publish to the world, but
which must inevitably furnish food for speculation.
We shall probably not greatly If we assume
them to be special and personal rather than general
and national. She declines to recognize not so much
the Mexican envoy the personal representative Of
revolutionary President. In that her discretion
Is commendable. The representative OF nation
should be appointed by an authority whose consti-
tutonality is unchalenged.
1t might seem presumptuous for Americans to IN
terpret this action OF the japanese government as
q following Of the American example Of not recog-
nlzing General Huerta as meant primarily to
show japanese sympathy with America in the
quasi-controversy which unhappily exists between
this country and Mexico. Nevertheless 1t would be
difficult and ungracious not to recognize its poen-
tial significance in those respects. The japanese
government scarcely have failed to consider It
that point OF view and to realize that 1t would
align Japan with rather than against the United
States.
At any rate II seems TO dispose pretty effectively
Of the notion that japan intriguing with Mex
ico or with General Huerta, against the United
States, and seeking every opportunity for In
creasng her influence south OF the Rio Grande. II
that had been her policy, she would not have given
70 General Huera what is without exaggeration
described as rebuff She would evidently rather
avoid the appearance of unfriendliness to the
United States than improve an opportunity Of curry
ing favor with Mexico. We do not know that any
thing more than that could reasonably be expected

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In the last few weeks have read
, articles among the letters from the peo-
pie In The Tribune and other New York
papers stating how the motormen and
trainmen OF the marlborough are abused
by being overworked and not given vaca-
tons. l am employed in the transporta-
ton department OF tho marlborough, and
II there IL another road where the men
are treated any better than We are

formed people who tender their needless
sympathy to VS. kindly inform me where
this road Is. As 70 vacations, there is no
railroad where the men are paid for
recreat!ng. with the exception OF officials
and I don't see why the PETERBOROUGH
should pay Its men when they don't
work The men OF this road can take
much longer vacations than those OF
most roads. One OF our motormen is on
a three months vacation now. The Of
ficials get only two weeks on and most
men prefer a long vacation without pay

working overtime, the mon are willing TO
make extra trips. and nest OF them ask

well paid for II. Very often we would
like to make an extra trip or two when
We are not allowed 10 on account Of the
sixteen-hour law. which Is only menace,

bill for this law was in the Klondike

pense to establish stores In different parts
OF the city which are the very incest and
cleanest Of their kind to he found any

Fireproof Partitions in Factories.

The report on the Bnghamton fire by the adj
visory engineer to the state Factory Investigating
Commission is admirable so far as ii goes. Its
fault is one Of omission, not OF commission. The
condemnation of the ordinary external fire escapes
the demand for the Enclosure Of interior stairways
in freproof compartments, the recommendation OF
alternative means Of exit, Of the Of automatic
sprnklers and Of the frequent removal of all in
nammabe waste, will meet with hearty approval
Ii is tc be regarded as strange, however, and as
most regrettabe that the report does not Include
among its recommendations the requirement that
every factory above a certain size shall be provided
with at least one freproof partition extending from
ground to roof and dividing 1t into equal parts.
With fire sweeping from end to end OF a building

The Governors Impeachment the
Only Possible Course.

The impeachment of Governor Sulzer is the only
possible action which the Assembly take hav-
ing due regard to the honor of the State of New
York 1t is the only thing possible for william
Sulzer
Before the Assembly is the report of a duly
constituted legislative committee charging the GOV
of the state with perjury and misuse of funds
and with improper use of the powers of his ONCE
to prevent facts in the case from becoming known.
This report is supported by sworn testimony ana
documentary evidence; it is set off merely by the
unsupported denial of the Governor. impeachment
proceedings offer the only speedy, sure and salts
factory way of trying this issue.
There can be little sympathy with those misguid-
ed friends of Governor Sulzer, in and out Of the
Legislature who have sought to delay impeach-
ment by shouting: Don't cruelty this man and turn
the government over to Tammany.' There is no
sense in their position They lose sight of the fact
that the Governor is under charges so foul and
blasting that the worst service his enemies could
do for him would be to prevent his coming to fair
and speedy trial. If he be innocent They overlook
the fact that TO retain in office for one minute
longer than Is necessary Governor who could be
proved guilty Of such charges, fair trial. would
be disgrace 10 the state quite unthinkable
Tammany Hall has been behind the impeachment
resolution and the investigation which preceded it,
Tammany Halls code Of political ethics and Tam
many Halls motives in this case are well enough
understood. 1t is certain that Governor Sulzer
would never have been in peril If his monumental!
egotism and Murphy's political principles hadn't
cashed. Yet Tammany Hall did not construct the
succession of events which the testimony before the
Frawley committee portrayed. Tammany Hall did
not swear to false statement Of campaign con-
trbutiOns and file it in the name of William Sulzer
Tammany Hall did not buy stocks for William Sui
ger under a secret account. Tammany Hall did not
indorse William Suffers name campaign checks
and turn them over to a stock broker.
Governor Sulzer will be on trial for his own acts,
regardless of the motives which led to the ferret
ing out of those acts. And II the case against him
! be proved and he be ousted from office on account
lof those acts his impeachment will be signal ser
/vice 10 the state Notwithstanding the motives with
which it was undertaken. The immediate thing for
the public interest is the settlement of the case OF
the people against Suzer. The case Of the people
against Tammany can and doubtless will be
handled satisfactorily In the coming elections.
The people ask, and will have fair and prompt
trial of the issues Governor Suzer cannot ask
more and he dare not ask less
