That the Feds are not INDUCING ID
any twilight sleep is evidenced by the
signing of Third Baseman Charles
Deal Of the Boston Braves by Presi-
dent Gilmore for the st. Louis Fed
erals. Deal was given a two-year
contract at q salary in the neighbor-
hood Of $5, 900 per year.
+. Deal cut a big figure in the worlds
series, replacing Red Smith when
the latter was hurt shortly before
the close of the season. It is doubt
full if Smith would have been pur-
chased from Brooklyn last year if
Deal had been in good health
throughout the season. George Stall
Hngs says his team win not miss
Deal, but the fact Is undisputed that
the youngster is a wonderful fielder
and can bit the ball on occasion. He
is miles better than Smith defensive
y and Is away above the average Of
big league third basemen. ...
p Leslie Mann, Brave outfieIder, is
also said to be dissatisfied with his
surroundings in the Hub and is con-
templating q leap to the Feds if he
is not given more money. Mann is a
poor hitter, but as good q defensive
outhsidsr as the National league can
boast. StaIlings, however, is rich in
Outfeld material, especially since
signing Sherwood Magee, and could
afiord to lose Mann.

full. don, soc II that way. The
same argument could be used against
the short ballot. The principle OF the
executive budget is the same. Under
the present conditions IN Albany. no
body ia responsible for the state ap-
propriations. One county wants bridge.
and another county wants court
house. Neither OF them needs il, eX-
cept. perhaps. for political considera-
tions, but the bridge county votes for
the courthouse county, and vice versa.
and that is log-rolling ard reckless
expenditure. The responsibility Is so
diluted that not a member Of the
Legislature who voted for the bridge
or for the courthouse even remembers
that he did so.
THE trouble with taxpayers is that
they are business men for 36I days in
the year, and politicians for one day,
and their one days experience as poll
,icians causes them more financial loss
than all the rest Of the year put to-
eether. Taxpayers want 10 forget this
year that they arc Progressives. or
Democrats, or Republicans. All they
want to do is 10 remember that New
York City and New York State govern

there is chance for putting on the

ton; and that q vote against the pro-
posed constitution is in effect a vote

A fixing of responsibility by srrsng-
ing the administrative work of the
state under seventeen heads instead
OF 1872, as at present. is certainly not
a step toward despotism. but a very
long stride toward popular control. In
the future voters can investigate the
records of the candidates for the four
state Offices for whom they are TO vote,
can vote for them intelligently and can
then hold them absolutely responsible
