The Orthography of Dispatches.

such conundrums as Your letter. Received many
Thanks Yet we cannot help wondering just how
the thing would work ont in practice.

receiving operator another? Is the latter 10 accept

Again, suppose that the sender doesn't write out his
operator who sends it to supply the capitals and
punctuation. shall he leave that TO the receiver:
There is also reason for asking why much more
should be required of telegraph operators than Of
anybody else. The average man, which means the
average sender and receiver Of dispatches, regards
punctuation much Lord Randolph Churchill did

A BEGINNING of Better Legislation.

1t is to be regretted that the Democratic legislative
leaders have taken advantage of the very new law
creating legislative bill drafting bureau to grab
a couple OF good jobs One Of their appointees. Mr.
Cumming to be sure, is known as an expert In the
phrasing OF legislation. But the other, Mr.. Van
Nance has had comparatively little experience
either as lawyer or legislative empoye Under such
circumstances the plan which has produced excel
lent results in Wisconsin is not to be expected to
show its best effect here.
Such bureau to serve good purpose must be
able TO do more than put some new lawmakers idea
of "meritorlous measure into adequate words. 1t
should combine with that the brand OF work done
by the Bureau OF Municipal Research here 1t
should serve as official clearing house for legis-
lative ideas reference library legislative mat
ters i'm this state and others. and II necessary be
capable Of originating the legislative solution for
some knotty problem such as the states business
constantly presents If It is to be worth anything
il must hid in bringing eficency-coherence and CO.
ordination-nto the states legislative business not
lust skill in phraseoogy. The bureau as It stands
seems hardly up TO that task, but it may serve as
q beginning of better legislative methods

A Good Citizen.

The spirit of the coming government of New York
City was very fairly shown by the Republicans
Democrats and Progressives who did themselves the
honor Of praising Robert Adamson. The gathering
WAS full OF partisans on national affairs. Yet a
more completely non-partisan assemblage of real
men has seldom sat down together.
There was just motive. That was, TO do honor
10 the man who set the fusion example of
courage and single minded loyalty to the City of
New York. 1t is ancient history But it is
worth recalling that Mr. Adamson came over to the
fusion cause in its darkest moment for the simple
reason that such was the right thing to do.
The more real men like Robert Adamson that Mr..
Mitchell can get about him the better for his admin
istration and the whole cause that he represents.

To Reoreanize the States Business.

Governor Glynns idea Of a commission OF repre-

best method of obtaining efficiency and economy III
handling the states affairs was an excellent one
His selection Of Mr. William Church Osborn as
chairman Of that body is equally good. Mr.. Osborn
is familiar with affairs because OF his service
az legal adviser TO Governor Dix, his work on the
state prison investigation I'm that same admlnistra
ton and his work as head Of the state food inyeS'
tigating commission. His political affiliations do
not bind him to the existing order Of things, nor
blind him 10 its defects.
BY his rapid-6re methods the Governor hustled The
Legislature into clearing away several important
subjects which have cuttered the calendars for the
last seven years. The bills passed may require
amending I'm subsequent sessions; but that need not
take all attention from the highly important mat
Ter Of department efficiency and department
economy and department reorganization wherever
needed. This is partisan subject. The Governor
and his advisory commission ought to find the Re
