TANNERS FORECAST

a Few Seats, Admits State
Chairman.
CONSTITUTION WILL WIN

Frederick c. Tanner. chairman OF the
Republican state committee. said yester-
day that he believes the Republicans will
retain control OF tho Assembly by a
largo majority, although he comedies
that tho Democrats may gain four or
Ave seats.
In the last Assembly the Republicans
held I OF of the $50 seats and Mr.. Tanner
thinks THAI ninety-six or ninety-seven Of
these seats will be retained In spite OF
the feeling OF the Democrats that the
protest against the direct State tax is
widespread and will be reflected In the
unseating of Republican Assemblymen.
"a careful canvass OF the Assembly
districts of the State indicates" said Mr..
Tanner yesterday. "the certain election
OF Republican majority to the AS
sembly Of 1915.
"Of the 15O districts our reports count
eighty-five as surely Republican, forty
two as surely Democratic and twenty
three as doubtful or the districts

WHITMAN TODRAFY
BUDGET OF HIS OWN
Will Have It Ready for Legis-
lature in January-Re-
verses Old Procedure.
TO GET AID OF EXPERTS

ALBANY. Oct. Sl.-Gov. whitman Is
going to try out the plan in the pro-
posed new Constitution Of making up
the State budget himself and then let
ting the Legislature revise II, instead OF
just the opposite. as in the past.
The Governors budget will be ready
by the end Of December, so that II can
be submitted to the Legislature in the
first week OF January. Mr.. Whitman
will be assisted by Chairman Horton
and the members OF the Senate civil
Service Committee. Chairman Sage OF

Chairman Adler OF the Assembly Ways
and Means Committee. the Governors
secretary. William a. orr, and one or
two budget experts.

vestigating the state payroll and ex-
penses with the assistance of the Bu-
rcau OF Municipal Research OF New

the Governor expects. will aid him to
materially cut down the State budget
TO be passed by the next Legislature.
1t IL expected that from 8 to per
cent. OF the employees OF "A number of
state departments and Institutions will
be eliminated becaus they are not
needed. Not only a surplus of en-
ployees have been found but too many
inmates in state charitable and In
sane institutions who should he cared
for in county almshouscs.
Last year the Legislature made tho
budget and passed it on to Gov. Whit
man after the Legislature had ad-
journed, giving the Governor but thirty
days to consider it, .e Governor this
year will have hearings at which heads
Of departments and institutions will ex-
plain their appropriations.
II is anticipated that the Legislature
wiz stick pretty close to the appropria-
tions suggested by the Governor in view
Of the fact that the Governor will have
the final vote on the items In the budget.
Tho Governor made public tonight
"a letter to Clinton T. Horton, chairman
OF the Senate civil Service Committee.
in which he says:
"MY DEAR SENATOR 1t is my earnest

tons, whether or not the new consti-
tutional provision is adopted.
ITO that end 1 have planned to seek
the cooperation of men qualified to
formulate a tentative State budget for
submission to the Legislature early in
the next session.
so far as concerns the departments
over which ! have direct administrative
control ] shall require that their pro-
posed allowances In this tentative bud
get shall be at the lowest possible figure
compatible with the proper performance
OF their duties, and shall require OF
them such reorganizations for economy
and efficiency as are now permitted
under the laws to be enforced. From
those departments over which I do not
have administrative control shall re-
quest the adoption of tho same pro-
grammc.
'"rhe early submission OF this tents-
tive budget will. believe. be helpful to
the work of all departments of the
State government, and through taking
up all tho items OF expense as n whole
will result among other benefits In a
proper balance being esta blished between
the allowances for various state ac-
tivities.

important. agency in this plan. ] ask the

"A member OF this budget conference. |

therein of such importance as to re-

WICKED CAN FIND NO
IN HOPE IN PRAYING
Lenten Preacher Says Mere
Supplication for Ones Self
I, Insufficient.

"Most prayers never reach God. True
resort when everything else seems to
fail" said the Rev. Charles j. Smith, pas
TOR Of Holy Trinity Church, New York,
who delivered a Lenten sermon today in
street above Sixth. Prayer is possible
only for Gods friends, never for his en-
smes" he said
Mr.. Smith said there is great deal
Of absurd thinking about the efficacy of
prayer, because its purpose was not un-
derstood.
"The wicked man has no right to pray
to God he said, FOR prayer is talking
With the Lord. The person whose hands
are dyed with sin cannot expect to be on
speaking terms with Him who hates sin
With bitter hatred. Man must get rid of
sin before he can hope to have any stand
Ing in the High Court of Heaven.
III we hope to have answers TO our
appeals to God we have to dwell close
TO his person. An unforgiving heart
need never expect to have its cry
heard Such n cry is like a shout for
help in midocean, with no ship nearer
than 1000 miles. Why do we persist
IN carrying around our grudges, our
hates and our enmities and then won
der why the Lord seems deaf. God
only hears those who come with clean
hands and pure heart.
Prayer Is selfless exercise. 1t de-
mands world outlook. 1t is not con-
cerned with trivalites. The shriveled
soul that thinks all it has to do is to
say the word and draw upon heaven for
personal good fortune is utterly mis-
taken. Our prayers ask too much for
ourselves and not enough for the rest
Of the world. Jesus never prayed for
q roof to cover Him. nor for soft beds
ana good meals. He did pray many
times for the world, that it might
Know Him and through Him become
heir of heaven"

Shore as a place OF residence the in
habitants promptly began arguing as to
the proper pronunciation of the name.
Bud" Squarewood asserted that Yawp
rhymes with "yap' and backed the point
with forceful language. John Chance as
serted that it should sound like cork"
and might even be spelled 'Yorp' Shore.
The latter proved his point by telling Of
the origin of the name.
There usta be an old yeller dog lived
down here" he explained. HE was 81

bark. and when he did it wasn't a reg
ular 'yap' like dog orter make. 1t was
'yorp,' 'yorp' so people just natarlly
called the place Yawp Shore from hearin'
that old hound, and it's pronounced 'Yorp
Shore, too, because that's the way the dog
usta say It"
Those who visit Yawp Shore are advised
to leave before dark. Swimming in a
swamp is difficult particularly after sun
down.
