The Extra Sessions Money Problems.

Tho extraordinary session of the Legislature winch
will assemble today was not precipitated on the
defenceless public by any question OF the
whether the public's money should be spent-iI "''
entirely question how it should be spent. Inc
Democratic Senate insisted on liberal appropriations
TO maintain the Department of Efficiency and Econ

Bureau, both Of which harbor numerous Needy
Democratic jobholders. \ Republican Assembly
could see no need in maintaining these departments
and their jobholders. refused any appropriations
Neither house would pass the appropriation Din
adopted by the other.
Into the situation thus deadlocked Governor
Glynn has thrown the question whether the puDlicS
money should be spent-that is. should be spent ior
ANYTHING less than good and sufficient cause, demon
strable in writing and capable Of standing an acid
test That is the real question for the extra SEES
sion to answer The public is not interested prl-
marily in the maintenance of political hangers-on
from the state treasury. IL cares no more whether
AIurphy's men in the two departments In question
have to 20 to work to earn living than it cares
whether Barnes's man. thrown out of his Tax Com
mission job by the Democrats in reprisal, has to
work for somebody other than the state. The pub
lie is tremendously interested in getting It's moneys
worth in service in quality and quantity of sup
plies I'm brain power and integrity These are mat
tiers which must be taken into account with every
item in the supply bill. Governor Glynn insists that
the total appropriations this year must not mount
over $39OOO0OO. That is good resolve, but one
sided 1t is not likely that the public would object
to 100000 or Si1OO0OO0. if it were certain that
the money would be spent carefully, honestly ana

The Verdict on the Ludlow Horror

The coroner's Jury at Trinidad, Col, is the most
unbiased body that has yet been heard from upon
the Ludlow horror This jury declares that inc
militia or the mine guards or both. started the IRE
in the Ludlow tent colony which cost the lives Oh
two women and ten children According to the jury
il was not accidental but deliberate savagery Inc
murder of noncombatants is not 1t is doubtful
if Il occurs even in the conflicts of semi-cyillzed
Mexico The Federals and rebels down there shoot
all prisoners taken And the world feels horror Ut
their brutality But the standards of the Colorado
militia doing mere police duty in the mining REGION
were no higher for the three prisoners taken at the
time of the Ludlow fight were all slain, with wounds
in the back two of them according to the militia H.
vestigators themselves made by bullets Ike those
used by the captors.
Perbaps this verdict will help to bring both SIDES
in this murderous conflict to their senses. Both
sides seem glad to lay down their arms, now that
strong and impartial representative of law ana orde
in the person of the United States troops is on tho
ground The utterances OF the union officials are iu
of the spirit of compromise, but the mine operators
appear still as determined as ever to resist "nao

RADIO Congressman who examined Mr. Rockefeller IN
Washington and who plainly sympathzed with the
strikers evidently believed that recognition OF the
union was the issue But the union ofhclals deiiy

only of interest however so far as its answer tennis

mine owners For the present it does not exist Inc
strikers do not now at any rate demand the closed
shop. There is no principle involved which would
excuse further fighting. 1t may be said that the
strikers by their lawless acts have put themselves
beyond the pale of consideration But it is almost
certain that the representatives Of the mine opera
TORS matched them in lawlessneSs.
And public sympathy is likely TO be with the
strikers because they were the victims of the maj
act of savagery at Ludlow and because every one
knows how cheapy their lives are generally held by
the mine owning corporations The mine operators
cannot expect to win the public over by refusing
even 10 meet and treat with their former workers
This was an indefensible position from the outset
It's maintenance has cost many lives.

ALCOHOL HAS HAD ITS DAY
The World Is Uniting Against Its
Use.

To the Editor of The Tribune
Sir: VIII you allow me, as a long
time reader Of The Tribune. to say that
your editorial on Brandy versus Grape
Juice does not impress me as either
very witty or very wise?
II you favor the man who imbibes
brandy instead of the abstainer you
are not so much knocking" prohibition
as you are going against the most ad-
vanced scientific thought Of the day in
regard to alcohol. The savants of sci
ence the captains of industry. assert
that mentality and morality thrive best
In those who shun the sparkling cup.
The preachers (but they are a poor lot
compared to the press) also say: Wine
Is a mocker and strong drink is raging"
King Alcohol has had his day, and,
whether by prohibition or by any other
way, he is under sentence. and the judg-
ment day for him is not far Off
Why not help instead OF hindering his
speedy death? Plenty. prosperity and
peace will be the portion OF the nation
that insists on the death OF the tyrant

The Issue in Pennsylvania.

The Republican party as a whole has direct in
terest in the, primary election which is to be held in
Pennsylvania on May 10. Candidates for United
States Senator are to be named, and the country is
waiting TO see whether the Republican organization
has recovered its bearings sufficiently to repudate
the leadership of Senator Boies Penrose.
Penrose and his machine played havoc with the
marty two wears ago. His support of President Taft
cost the latter the votes of fve-sXhs of the dele
gates TO the Republican National Convention. His
activities after Mr. Tafts denomination were even
more disastrous The Republican electoral ticket
ran third In 1908 7457 40 votes cast for it, In
1912 the total fell to 273,305.
Penrose has been associated throughout his career
with machine rule Of the most oppressive sort. lie
has fought against cleaner elections, ballot reform
laws popular rule within the party and progressive
legislation of every description. He is confirmed
Bourbon and stand-patter, the last of line of evil
bosses stretching back TO Quay and the two Cam
erons If he wins denomination the other reaction
airy leaders in the party will be encouraged to think
that Republican victories this fall will put them
again in full control of the Republican national or
ganzation.
The Republican party has an excellent chance to
regain power in 1916 If it shows that It has taken
heart the lessons OF 1912. In order TO draw back
the voters who slipped away two years ago it must
emphasize its growth in liberalty Of spirit 1t must
look forward, not backward. The progressive wing
of the party in Pennsylvania has put in nomination
against Penrose ex-Mayor j. Benjamin Dimmick OF
Scranton He is man OF high character and liberal
views and has had successful career as lawyer,
manufacturer and banker. His nomination would
mean that the Republican party in the state had
been morally reinvgorated and had cut loose from
dubious and degrading associations. He could be
elected Senator 1t is almost beyond belief that Mr..
Penrose could be elected. Mr. Dimmlcks fight IN
the primary is therefore the fight of every Repuo-

A Pure Food Campaign.

The National Civic Federation is taclling prob
lem of vital interest in undertaking countrywide
investigation TO ascertain the best way to get pure
foods and pure drugs. It's plan is TO seek informa-
Ton from state and city health commissioners, chem
ists college professors, food dealers and manufact
urers and others with special knowledge Experience
as to bad fOodstuffs and theory TO avoiding them
will be sought.\
That is excellent as means of preventing the
marketing Of bad foods and drugs The federatlOn's
plan for educatingl housewives though is much more
practical as it will prevent the sale Of bad articles
even If they do fnp place in the markets Both
buyer and seller need education in the pure food
line but if the bu yers all knew how to avoid I'M
wholesome harmful articles the sellers would soor
reform and produce only good ones.

SAFEGUARDS AGAINST FIRE
Inclosed Fireproof Stairways and Prop
erly Placed Fire Escapes Are Demanded.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Recent fires In New York. Boston
and elsewhere suggest the following:
No building with persons sleeping
above the third floor should be built
without an inclosed freproof staircase
from the lowest basement floor. All old
buildings so occupied should have the
stairways fireproofed and inclosed. This
applies 10 hotels lodging houses. apart
ments or tenements. IL can be done
gradually, but all should be so equipped
by specified time. Various firms SELL
ing hollow tile. asbestos sheets and gyp-
sum products stand ready to do this
work at a moderate price.
No fire escapes should be placed where
flames or smoke from windows render
them useless when most needed. Fac
tories where employees are working above
the third floor should also have inclosed
freproof exits. II above the fifth floor,
the building should be fireproof. The
same rule as TO fire escapes should also
apply. The average fire escape" Is a
tragic irony. 1t should be built in front
OF the party wall. not in front OF the
Window. To insist on one for each
building il foolish: the size and location
are more important than the number.
Automatic fire alarms are inexpensive
and should be placed wherever life Is az
risk from fire.
