Still Limpine Along.

We cannot agree with "Ihe Evening Post that
the change made the other day in the United States
Senates unanimous consent rule is "of much i'm
portance" The ancient device Of unanimous con
sent agreements is about the only thing which keeps
the legislative wheels moving in the Senate. When
that bodys patience with itself for toeratng unlim
tied debate is exhausted the right to fibuster in
definitely is temporarily suspended by an informal
gentlemen's compact.
Some OF the agreements reached have given
offence to Senators who did not happen to be on
hand 10 insist on their privilege of obstruction, and
now in order TO protect the friends OF "deloera-
ton" still further the Senate has agreed not to
enter into unanimous consent agreement unless
there is a quorum present 1t will therefore be a
little harder than ever to outwit the fibusters.
Nor will It be much easier to annul snap agree
,nents since an agreement can be quashed only by
superseding unanimous action taken with a
quorum present
II the rules were to be changed they should have
peen changed in the direction of giving majority
some real control over business. legislative ma
ior4ty should stand its own feet and accept the
responsibility which goes with power. The SEN
ate's present system of selfgovernment is puere.
If il were willing TO trust itself and put an end to
the tyranny of an irresponsible minority its eff
cheney as a legislative body would be increased
manifold.

"MORTUARY TOUCH OF DR.. ELIOT"
The Unfavorable View of Colleges Ex-
pressed by DR.. Dana Finds Support.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: DR.. Charles L. Dana, quoted in
to-days Tribune, said last night at a
meeting of the Schoolmasters' Associa-
ton of New York: Il have had only
good Impression of secondary schools.
II seemed to me these institutions fur
nished the one bright spot in a rather
gloomy educational world. They have
sent out a distinct radiance between the
dawdling policies OF the elementary
schools and the crudity and foolishness
of American college education, particu-
larly since 1t felt the mortuary touch OF
Dr. Eliot thirty wears ago
The truth Of this no man can deny.
II stands readily verified by all VINO
now recall what ucation-especially
college education at Harvard. Yale and
Princeton--vas prior TO that deadly ma
teriallstic pedagogy put on these famous
institutions during the last generation
and which DR.. Dana so COMPLEMENTARY
indicates as the mortuary touch of Dr.
Eliot" This hateful materialism ruined
those virtually sanctified traditions Of the
great Cambridge school which had served
TO make Tor IL Weiiheh peerless diui''i'
OF truly famous men not nearly
matched again. DR.. Eliots atrocious pres
idential example at sheer materialistic
expansion was foolishly followed by the
directorshps of other colleges and re-
suited In the prevailing rot Of institu-
tional traditions that now infests them
so that they scarcely at all survive.

Good Wishes for New Jersey.

The progressive commonwealth across the Hudson
installs Governor to-day in exceptionally hopeful
circumstances. Mr. Fielder is man of fine parts
and character who has had much more experience
in the duties OF his office than the constitution per-
mts New Jersey Governors generally to have. and
there would be a strange reversal OF both form
and record If he did not make good the promise
of his campaign.
Moreover the legislative situation is auspcious,
both parties being pledged to "be good and to CO.
operate each with the other in the non-partisan
enactment OF measures calculated to extend and to
perfect the exceptional progress which has been
made under the last three administrations There is
much need Of such further enactmens. and there is
happily some ground for confidence in the purpose
of the Legislature TO supply them.
dozen years ago that state was one Of the most
conservative in the Union. To-day it is of the
most advanced and most advancing: in when
process. whether as experiment, an example or
an achievement 1t has the best wishes OF its OBJ

THE HENNESSY SHOVEL
Chuckles from the Craftcrs Greet Its
Appearance in Tammany Hands.

To the Editor Of The Tribune
Sir: Your cartoon in to-day's Tribune
describes the situation perfectly. Dig
boys, but not too deeply" And Delaney,
Osborne and Glynn know just how deep
TO dig and when to cease from their firing
efforts why was the shovel that was
placed i'm Hennessy's hands by former
Governor Sulzer taken away from him?
Instead of continually talking, lIennessy
kept digging: and when he did talk it was
TO Governor Suzer, who in turn talked 10
the district attorneys, who repeated MS
conversation to the grand jurles, VINO
finally had something TO say TO the high
way grafters Instead of following this
line of procedure, Glynn is talking to Os-
borne, Osborne is talking to Delaney and
Delaney is talking TO Glynn. And the
highway grafters are chuckling.
An impartial and thorough investiga-
ton by an Assembly committee will cause
the grafters to cease chuckling long
enough to run for cover, and will, in my
opinion, cause the "do-nothing trinity
TO cease talking to each other and do a
Little explaining to the taxpayers, who are
paying for this pathetic exhibition OF IN
competence-or worse.
Keep up the work. More power 10 your

THE GENERAL VIEW OF MEXICO
War Must Be Avoided at All Costs, Is
the Main Idea.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: In all that | read about the Mexican
situation I fear there is much of rancor
and partisanship. on the one hand there
seems 10 be a concerted effort TO discredit
the Mexican government; on the other
the attacks on our own government sho"
binding bitterness 1t seems TO me
about time that the attitude Of the aver
ace intelligent citizen, unbiased and with
no axe to grind. should find expression.
get around great deal, and like TO
think about and talk about the big topics
of the day with the folks / meet Now
here's the result of my careful ooserVa-
ton of what the man in the street. the
man i'm the office and the man In the shop
think about the Mexican situation:
The younger men are inclined to talk
big as 10 what we would do In case OF
war with Mexico, but nine out OF every
ten men are against war. They can't see
any reason why there should be war ana
they really don't expect It, There is no
feeling at all against Mexico or the Mexi-
can people There is just little bit or
concern about the sharpness ana irrecon-
cilability OF the administrations attitude
toward the Mexican government, concern
that it may force issues that might lead
TO something that could be avoided.
As TO President Wilson'S general policy
there is a willingness TO depend on his
good motives and judgment. Also the
average man. who knows nothing OF Mex
leo at first hand. feels that President VIII
son is in a position TO know the facts,
and therefore he is inclined TO believe
he knows what he is doing better than
he could
find that the average man discounts
lot of the Mexican news in the papers. In
fact. many say that they are sick ana
tired of the Mexican rumors from day 10
day. and some simply don't read anything
but the headlines.
I find some condemnation OF General
Huerta on the grounds that-well, just on
the general impression Of him the papers
have given. But there is at the same
time a sort Of admiration for his sticking
to his guns.
In the mimi and imagination OF the av-
craze man Villa counts for more than
Carranza. Many are puzzled as TO why
encouragement OF a bandit who loots a
town and kills the defenceless should
seem 10 be the alternative TO the accept
ance OF President Huerta.
Summing il up. the average man seems
TO feel like this: War must be avoided at
all costs. Mexicans should be let manage
their own affairs. As between the Mexi-
can government and those hghting H. the
government seems TO be the more re-
spectacle and civilized and should not al
least be antagonized BY us.
think II this attitude OF the average
man were reflected in the public press IT
would make for a better understanding
generally. e. H. sIAoIb'

The Governor Must Show Deeds.

Governor Gynn's prompt disclaimer of intent to
put Delaney, of the Department of Efficiency and
Economy in charge Of the highway graft inyeStiSa-
ton and the sudden and promising activity OF
James w. Osborne, the Governors investigator,
clear the atmosphere somewhat. The Governor is
entirely correct when he says that this highway
graft situation is the biggest thing in his admins
traton at present II certainly is the biggest thing
in its power to discredit any administration if it is
mishanded or fumbled twisted for the protection
of any crook or incompetent.
Up to date the Governors record on the matter
shows a good start and bad slump after it. His
credit all over the state has suffered because of an
apparent inclination TO the Tammany side of the
fence. He can recover If he and his appointees
keep after the grafters in office and out of office.
1t will take deeds similar TO District Attorney
Whitman's though. and not words. to convince the
public that the Governor is this job TO its
satisfaction.
