A FABLE FOR THE ALLIES
The lnquisitive Gobbler and What
Became of Him.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: | see the present position of
Turkey in the light of the following
fable:
A lion was one day engaged in the
eating of an exceedingly tough and
scraggy eagle which had foolishly
aroused the King of Beasts from peace
full slumber in the sunshine. In this
unpleasant task the lion was aided by
friendly bear and a cheerful cock,
whose farmyard the eagle had devas-
tated. While the three friends were
thus en- ged an inquisitive gobbler
saw fit to peck the Hons tail and tweak
the bears left ear. Occupied with the
crunching of acquiline morsels, neither
animal for the moment paid any atten-
ton to the absurd bird, which shot his
feathers, swelled his comb and strutted
as though ne were no end of fine
fellow. When, however, the eagle had
been swallowed, before sitting down
to digest so sorry a meal, the lion and
the bear made bold to ask the gobbler
what might be his little game. Abashed.
the bird replied: "Sirs, | meant no
HARM" to which they answered: Fool
ish fowl, your wits are plainly weak;
we will put you in cage lest worse
befall, and we will take care Of your
farmyard." ES0P JUNIOR.

Drive the Tiger from the Capitol.

Mr. Whitman has done good service in exposing
the employment of one Torpey, convicted of for
gerry and grand larceny in a confidential place
under Controller SOhmer, and of Matt Horgan
also with a criminal record, in a high place under
Superintendent Richards Of the Department OF
Banks A state administration may be judged
even more accurately by the character of its minor
appointees than by the department heads, who are
frequently employed for window dressing"
whereas the little fellows do the work and slip
over" the machines grabs and gratis.
Under Tammany the state departments have
become loaded with political heelers whose records
are hardly more savory than those of the two men
convicted Of crime whom Mr. Whitman has used
to point his moral. The merry firm of Grab &
Graft which Governor Glynn promises TO dis
solve has had full sway under him. He has never
done one thing TO interfere with its operations.
Not one cent came off the salary of Torpey un-
der the Wanted Glynn economy Neither did
Torpcy do one hours work more in a week than
his accustomed microscopic bit Not one cent came
off the wages of any of the other political an.
pOinteeS whose department heads were anSwerable
to Governor Glynn Not one organization worker
lost his job Tammany has looted the state treas.
ury under guiSe of law, and probably restitution
can be compelled, was the case with the money
TOrpey stole
1t is utterly futile to expect that what Governor
Glynn has not done heretofore in the way of polh.
cal reforms and department housekeeping he would
do if elected next month. lie has had nearly full
year as Executive, and before that he was not with
out power in the state service He is directly re-
sponsible for conditions as they exist now and fine
