administration Then 1t was supreme.
Having elected the governor, Tammany
laid claims to him, and its claims were
largely allowed. Gov. Dix and Mr..
Murphy worked together to the COM
plete satisfaction of the latter.
Gov. Glynn is different proposition
a much stronger and more experienced
man than Gov Dix. If elected he will
owe his success to Tammany, in the
sense that 1t Is the most powerful po-
lttical agency in the democracy Of the
state. but he may be expected to carry
himself in ONCE with the independence
that goes with the ability he possesses.
He will not hector the organization, or
pretend to hold himself superior to such
association, but will show it the con-
sideration he thinks it deserves.
An interesting point relates to 1916.
AS Tammany Endorses the administra-
ton now, it will, Of course. repeat the
performance two years hence when the
democrats of New York select their
delegates to the next national conven-
ton. The denomination Of Mr.. Wilson,
if he lives, looks today like a certainty.
He will have no competitor and Tam
many will join the procession, with Mr..
Murphy in front carrying the banner.

Mr.. Hearst and the Senate.

| There was nothing persuasive at any
| time about the suggestion Of William r.
Hearst for the democratic nomination for
senator from New York. He was not
properly in the picture. Tammany IS the
| main party reliance in the state. and Mr..
| Hearst has fought Tammany more BIT
terly since he ran for governor than he
| did before. The Wilson administration Is
| in the scale. and he has condemned all
of its important performances. AS a
democratic candidate for any ONCE in
New York this year, he would have been
a misfit.
Mr.. Hearst probably serves his fame
and his best interests by his course. The
Senate would not have suited him. The
House did not. After a brief experience
in the latter body he retired. He saw
a larger field for usefulness outside than
inside Congress
And maybe even his opponents will con-
cede that he has made Roadway as a
politician since returning to journalism.
He has more strength today than when
he was a member Of the House. His
hands are freer. His outlook is broader.
His independence is surer.
Office holding imposes obligations. It
has its hamperings. Staying in Office re-
quires as many compromises as getting
in. Many conflicting interests are found
in even small constituency. In large
one they are not only numerous but
powerful.
For these reasons man with Mr..
Hearst's means of activity should keep
clear of such restraints. When cam
paign opens on any new or any old is
sue. he has only to consult his own views
about the part. he plays. He is in posi-
ton to speak for himself, and to shape
the course of the newspapers he controls.
He can take or leave what is offered, as
he pleases.
Other New York editors have played
with the lure of office. but only one with
marked success, and his office was not
elective. Whitelaw Reid at two Euro
pean capitals made reputation as diplo-
mat Horace Greeley, Henry ]. Ray
mond and Joseph Pulitzer, all before Mr..
Hearst's day, tried the House, and liked
it no better than he did; and years later
Mr.. Greeley broke his heart and lost his
life striving for the presidency.
This year the New York field is any
thing but inviting. Numberless knives
have been to the grindstone; and when
the shindy closes it will be seen that
they have been welded with a vigor I'M
exampled even in that fierce atmosphere
and environment.

The European Campaign.

Day by day the German advance west
ward continues. Day by day the Rus
slams push their lines farther into East
Prussia. Thus the dual campaign in
Europe develops. with a succession of
German successes against the Franco
English Belgian allies and Russian sue
cesses against the Austro-German allies.
How long can this process be main
tanned? What will be the deciding factor
in this devastating war that now en-
broils most of Europe and a part of Asia
and menaces the peace and neutrality of
other portions of the world?
4 German official wireless message
says that after nine days of fighting the
all-western enemy has retreated all along
the line. Advices from England and
France tend to corroborate this asser-
ton. but with a confusion of details.
For example. one dispatch from an anti
German source says that the allies have
taken up a line between lie Cateau to
Cambria. Both of these points are in
France and this line would be roughly
speaking about twenty to twenty-five
miles west of the Belgian border. An
other dispatch from a similar source
says that the allied line is intact from
and the latter just over the French
boundary. Valenciennes. which has been
reported to have been taken by the Ger.
mans. lies between these two lines
Again. there is contradiction in the dis
patches regarding Lille, which was yes
terday reported to have been captured
by Germany and is now claimed by the
French and English to remain in the
hands of the allies.
But all differences in detail as to the
present positions of the two armies aside
ID is evident that the German advance
continues. in some degree, but at what
cost cannot be known, as there is silence
regarding specific military losses or
both sides. Ordinarily it is estimated
that the casualties of an attacking force
are much greater than those of defend.
ers. and it is well assured that the Ger.
man sacrifices for the sake of territorial
gain must be very heavy The question
of moment, therefore, is whether the
kaiser can reach Paris or destroy the
English and French armies without pay
ing such penalty that he will be unabl,

The New York Bull Moosers.

1t cannot be said that the bull
moosers at Utica yesterday had a
happy issue out of all their affections.
but one was eliminated The Sulzer
boom died away
Even in a condition of political
topsy-turvydom. Mr.. Sulzer as the
bull moose candidate for Governor OF
New York would have staggered the
natives. Tammany born-and- bred,
Tammany rewarded, and at last
victim of Tammany's wrath, he repre-
sents in this campaign his personal
feelings against Tammany and all that
the Tiger spells in New York affairs.
That is his only connecting link with
the bull moose movement.
The bull moosers are opposed to
Tammany all right, but they stand for
much more than that. or say they DO,
and their nominations yesterday were
in keeping with their general profess
sions. Frederick NJ. Davenport for
governor and cambridge Colby for
senator express in point of ability and
character the best of the movement.
They promise an active campaign, and
will have the support of Mr.. Roosevelt.
But they will not be elected. The only
their candidates. relates to the size
of the bull moose vote, which many
politicians believe will be small.
Mr.. Colby-a plain spoken man-said
in his speech to the conference:
There has been a little too much
hating. We have heard talk recently
in favor of the theory that the solu-
ton of our troubles lay in the selec-
tion of a masterful person, even If he
could not subscribe entirely to pro-
gressive principles. But I do not be-
lieve that We should look entirely to
a great and good man from whom all
blessings fiow."
The reference was to the Irritation
between Mr.. Roosevelt and Mr.. Hin
man, which failed After waving his
response. Mr.. Human drew back. and
left Mr.. Roosevelt in the lurch and
somewhat embarrassed.
But in this whole bull moose bust
ness the really "masterfu1 person." the
great and good man from whom all
blessings fiow," is not Mr.. Human, but
Mr.. Roosevelt. Without the latter. bull
moosery would never have been; and
withdraw him now and bull moosary
would Idle away" as the Sulzer boom
did at Utica All of Mr.. Colby's
strength on him is stayed: all his
hope from him he brings. Mr.. Hin
man is small potatoes compared with
the man who brought the third party
into existence.
Mr.. Roosevelt did not go to Utica
1t was not necessary that he should.
His spirit ruled the proceedings from
Oyster Bay. 1t will likewise rule the
bull moose campaign. He will be the
star of both stump and council. If the
vote is large, to him will go the credit;
il small, he will be the chief sufferer.
for a small bull moose vote in New
York this year will make a big
dent in Mr.. Roosevelt's presidential
aspirations.

Tammany and the Administration

At Saratoga Tammany led the applause

nothing if not regular. For an organi-
cation with bad reputation. and often
abused. even on the democratic side of
the fence, it manifests at times spirit
of rare humility and forgiveness. It
forgave Tilden and Cleveland, and now
it forgives Wilson.
Tammany will support the democratic
ticket nominated at the primaries. al
though it may not like all Of the nomi-
nees. Another necessity to be regular
will present itself, and Mr.. Murphy will
beat the long roll. The rank and file
will fall in.

American ambassadors and min
listers at the capitals of the nations
now at war find their work not only
vastly increased in Importance and diff
flculty, but also much more than dou-
bled in volume. Withdrawal Of diplo-
matte representatives by the hostile
nations has been almost invariably fol-
lowed by request that the United
States assume charge. At Paris. London
st. Petersburg, Brussels, Berlin and
Vienna the difficult duty of represent
ing hostile countries has been cheer
fully accepted. Spain is the only other
nation which has been called upon to
contribute the services Of her diplo-
mats, and Spain has had few requests
in comparison to the large number
which have been made to the United
States. The entry OF Japan has placed
still another diplomatic burden on this
country. The almost universal de-
mand for the services of American
diplomats is q compliment both to
the quality Of American diplomacy and
to the determined neutrality of the
American nation.
