Direct Nominations"
( hartman { (
QnCp
Now York, Sept. II, 1915.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: During his brilliant, if largely frus-
trated. campaign for direct nominations"
Governor Hughes deplored the fact that the
neople tolerate so much in the way of per-
version of the forms of government and al
low 70 little lotteries so large control OF
their political destinies."
This deplorable "embezzement OF power
bv the little coteries in question we make
possible nay, we actually promote-by leav-
ing to their pseudo-"poltica" organizations
the critical, all-determining part OF the
electoral process the declaring, with official
effect. what names shall appear on the ballot
as those of the candidates" Of tho great par
ties. for which the coteries' conventions,
committees" and leaders" profess to speak.
The nomination is the thing, and so long
as we delegate the function Of nominating TO
VIGOROUSLY undemocratic oligarchies so long
will the Hughes-like official be a rdrd aus,
indeed, and the Senator or Mayor, or judge
"of commerce" only the shameless dummy or
rubber stamp Of the coterie that made him.
The irony of it is that this nominating by
coteries is utterly unnecessary. We already
have three official polling" opportunities, so
to speak. Registration day, primary day and
Election Day. Let US have registration day
early in September, primary day early in Oc-
tober and Election Day Gas now early in
November. On registration day let each voter
who then "enrolls" as party member sig
nifty (on the same blank, perhaps, on which
he enrolls) his suggestion, if any, as to the
person his party shall nominate for any
Office to be filed on Election Day For use on
primary day an official ballot would then be
printed, on which, under the title of each
Office TO be filed, there would appear, in
alphabetical order, the names of the five
persons most numerously Suggested" for
nomination 10 such Office on enrolment
blanks filed by enrolled party members on
registration day On primary day each en-
rolled party member could mark, on such
party primary ballot, the one OF such five
suggested nominees whom he preferred for
candidate. and the one who in this way got
the plurality or majority at the primary
would be the party's candidate for the par
Iticular office in question and would appear as
such on the Official ballot used on Election
Day.
This plan would give official effect only to
the acts of enrolled members OF the party
acting Individually, and the volunteer
usually pure "spoils"-machinery which
bosses so inevitably control would be re-
stricted to such influence as 1t might have
to persuade individual voters individually to
I"suggest" on the enrolment blanks, and, later,
to "mark"-each acting separately and per-
sonelly-on the primary ballots the nominee
favored by the machine. And that nominee
would then be simply one OF five proposed
nominees, all alike presented, on precisely
equal terms, on the primary ballot, from
among whom each enrolled party voter could
take his personal choice in the voting booth
on primary day.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: 1t was gratifying to read Mr.. ST.
monds's article and also your admirable edi-
torial in this mornings edition. This latter
seems to be in line with Colonel Roosevelt's
speech at Plattsburg. Now let's see If The
Tribune is bounded as ne was My firm be-
lief is that if Mr.. Roosevelt had been in the
White House instead of the present incum-
bent. the Mexican business would have long
ago been settled, and we would not have
known so much about German bluff" Mr..
Roosevelt has the courage Of his convictions
and he knows a thing or two as to what IS
right, and what is most important, no men
or politicians can twist him around their fin
gers Would we have war on our hands
had Mr.. Roosevelt been President? We would
not, is my opinion. This country Is powerful
enough to make any country sit up and take
notice when guided by man Of honesty and
force. Are we proud of our present position
in The eyes of the world? PATRIOT.

Keep the City's Water Pure!

New York State is now bringing SUIT
in equity against the State of New Jersey
to protect the residents of the upper West
Side of this city from the stencil Of
chemical factory at Edgewater. This IS
a nuisance, but does not seriously en-
danger the health of New Workers. Yet
New York State itself contemplates, IN
planning to discharge the sewage from
Mohansic State Hospital into the Croton
water supply, action which seriously
menaces the purity of this city's drink
ing water and therefore seriously men
aces the health Of the public of this city.
This state, consequently, stands in the
position of being willing to protect the
city against a sister state, but of being
unwilling to spend a comparatively small
sum which would render the city safe
against the proposed menace of its own
state government.
Mayor Mitchel's protest TO Governor
Whitman is none too sharp. The impor-
lance Of this menace to the health and
comfort of the city cannot be overesti-
mated. No treatment of the sewage Of
this state institution can assure New
Workers complete protection against dis
ease if the Croton water supply be pol
luted. And even if there should be no
outbreak Of disease, the fact would be
ever present that the city's drinking
water had been defed by the sewage of
some 5000 persons.
This city cannot afford, obviously, to
give up the Croton water supply. Under
no consideration Of fairness and decency
should the state vitiate that supply. Gov
ernor Whitman should kill this vicious
proposal.

Criticism of the President.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: May I add a word to the letter Of
Henry s." which appears in your issue of
to. day? In accordance with democratic
principle and privilege. undoubtedly the
Chief Executive is in line to receive such
adverse criticism as he may chance 10 de-
serve, and does he not deserve very severe
criticism-and criticism that may easily be-
come historic-because Of his Withholding
national protest at the violation OF Bel
gian neutrality at the time that outrage was
committed? There was no Withholding OF a
atonal congratustion on the occasion OF
the Kaiser's birthday. We are, therefore
forced to the conclusion that international
courtesies should, in his opinion, be upheld
10 matter to what four winds international
obligation to protest against wrOngdoing
lie cast.
Be that as it may, the United States OF
America must go down in history as having
uttered, nationally, no word Of protest at
one of the worlds greatest outrages.

Taxes and the New Constitution.

How much the adoption Of the new con-
stitution means to New York City in the
present financial crisis is indicated from
two sources. The Advisory Council of Real
Estate Interests estimates that with the
proposed home rule provision Of the new
document in effect municipal bureaus
and departments could be consolidated
and reorganized to the tune of
$l3,OO0OO0 annual saving. Mr.. Tilden
Adamson, director Of the Board of Esti-
mates Bureau of Standards, goes even
further. He urges the budget-makers,
now at work preparing the budget for
1916, to anticipate the adoption of the
new constitution. Without calculating the
possible saving in dollars and cents he
argues that millions can be cut from the
budget by putting the City Chamberlain
into the Finance Department, consolidating
the Bridge Department with the Depart
ment of Docks and Ferries, combining the
Board Of Water Supply and the Depart
ment Of Water Supply, Gas and Electric
ity, and making many kindred department
changes. All these changes would be pos
sible-and doubtless eminently desirable as
tending to efficiency and vastly less ex-
Dense-if the home rule provision Of the
constitution should 90 into effect next year
If the constitution be not adopted this
reorganization under Mr.. Adamson's plan
of course could not be put into effect, but
in that case there could be issued special
revenue bonds to carry along the present
just as if their appropria-
tions had been included in the budget.
New York City has not been treated
fairly in the reapportionment controversy.
Fortunately, that article is 10 be sub
