New York Republican Committee, said
Yesterday that he would call a meet
ing Of the district committees on July
10. When the district reapportionment
was made the unit Of leadership
was changed from the Assembly Dis
trict to the aldermanic district, as
under the latter plan the parties were
able 10 retain several more OF the old
leaders. The membership OF the state
committee from this county was pro-
yided for accordingly, but the walters
law threw the whole situation out OF
Joint by providing for the makeup OF
the state committee on Assembly DIS
trict basis.
Eleven Changes Due Here.
There are twenty-three Assembly
districts in Manhattan under the new
apnortionment where there were thirty
ore formerly, which means that Man
haitian will lose eight members in the
state committee. There are eleven dis
tricts in New York County where
changes will occur. How the Republl-
cans will settle the matter will be de-
tormined on July 10. The Democrats
have not yet decided when 10 hold
their meeting.
In eight Of the Assembly districts n
dual Republican leadership was Great

trict unit. There is likely to be a
scrap between the two leaders in these
districts for the place on the state

Reform in Advertising.

opposition TO questionable advertising
on the part OF advertisers. publishers
and managers; vigilant committees
have been formed TO bring offenders
TO the bar of justice. To the growing
and future generations It will appear
an extraordinary act Of qualification
that a newspaper publisher who eX-
pounds the most perfect system OF
ethics and warmly applies its principles
to his own conduct should in one col

thusiasm on the practice of all the vir-
tues and in another help a fraudulent
enterprise 20 achieve its object.
Reform from Within.
at is gratifying that reform has come
from within. Newspaper men have not
waited for the benign interference OF
legislation TO cleanse their Augean
stables and 70 cast out the vicious and
dishonest.
The great development of advertis-
ing in this country has probably as
sisted in the creation of a desire to
eliminate the unworthy, for even those
who long hung back before they would
reject what was untrue. immoral or
nagrantly dishonest have come TO know
that il will serve their interests better
TO sell their advertising columns only
TO business which will stand investiga-
ton. Honesty, al their case, may have
been adopted as the better policy, but
IN any event their attitude is a pleasing
homage 20 the efforts of those who,
without regard TO their pockets. re-
iected, from the very first, the incur
sions Of fraudulent advertisers.
"An advertisement is frequently
Judged by the company it keeps. An

New complications have arisen under
