Gated sun which by few rays not only

Admitted that there Is New

That Is to say, Is he affected, acting

for betterment; pedant, stiff in
speech; conceited, lacking proper re-
spect for others; a pretence, masking

No! Years of close study have not
left us unaware that such small men
speck the fair land between Coney
Island and Spuyten Duyvil, but they
do not color 1t.
AS we see him, that typical New
Yorker, he hath fervent hope that
all men will love his city as he loves
1t; II his CHEEKY heart Is sad OFtimes

came, visited, went-and wrote pieces
about New York without having seen
1t. He is eupeptic In mind and body.
There is admirable harmony between
the processes, the functions of his
vision and his liver. Nothing that he
thinks or does makes him see or feel
yellow. He Is trustful. Nay, laugh
not. Minneapolis, for he has with I'M
finching faith made the West more
golden than her sunsets. Thereby he
has not always been without profit,
but he has trustingly flung into the
laps Of Western promoters Of mines,
of oil, of timber, Of water power more
than all the West has ever paid for
green goods. Many, many millions
more to which he has said farewell.
But this Is somewhat beside the
point. There Is New Yorker, and he
is of a very human sort. He works
hard. and under n high pressure we

though 1t may be there; plays golf
when he can, and bridge, or poker, as

he'd rather ride In an automobile than

but Is silent about his losses; Is bit
grouchy about paying newfangled
taxes but pays his pew rent cheer

We hope, neighbor, that you will

DR.. SHAw'S LIFE WORK.
Facts Concerning the Presidency Of
thy Suffrage Organization.

To THE EDITOR OF THE SuN-Sr: In
your excellent and much appreciated
sketch OF DIR. Anna Howard Shaw are
one or two small errors which doubtless
for the sake OF accuracy you will be
glad to correct. 1t says:
1t had been DIR. shaw's ambition to
succeed Miss Susan d. Anthony when
the latter gave up the presidency In
1900, but 1t seemed best that Mrs.
Carrie Chapman Gait should have the
ONCE then. and DR.. Shaw rellnquished
her desire. just as later she acquiesced
cheerfully when Mrs. Gait was sent out
on the world tour for suffrage which
she. DR.. Shaw. had always longed to
take.
DR.. Shaw had never expected to sue
coed Miss Anthony in the presidency, as
It had no salary and she was entirely
self-supporting. She felt obliged to re-
main In the office OF presidential
large, which she had held for eight
years. and which, though also unsala-
ried, left her free to use her time for
giving lectures and to accept pay for
them. Mrs Gait was not sent out on
a world tour for suffrage" but went
OIL her own initiative and paid her own
expenses She went as president of the
International Woman Suffrage Alliance
to visit its branches In various coun-
tries and form others.
When Mrs. Cats impaired health
compelled her to resign the national
presidency in 1904 DR.. Shaw accepted
luctantly at Miss Anthony's urgent So
licltatlon. After the death Of the latter
two years later Miss Mary f. Garrett
of Baltimore and DR.. NJ. Carey Thomas
president OF Dryn Mawr College, raised
a fund which gave her a modest salary
Miss Anthony did not when she was
dying wiring promise from DR.. Shaw
never to lay down the presidency TIL
those she trusted made her feel that
she should do So" DR.. Shaw's owr
words. as quoted in the biography OF
Miss Anthony, are:
Fearing that after she had passed
away | might give up tho presidency
she besouEht me over and over to
promise her that would devote all
the remaining years Of my Dfe to this

my services in any capacity and felt
that I could be useful would give
my entire time to ~ and would work
for woman suffrage the remainder OF
my life In the best way I could. either
In or out OF the association.
When DR.. Shaw In 1915 determined e
resign the presidency, whose duties were
now requiring nationwide organization
and executive ability rather than tht

platforms. she pleaded with Mrs. Gait
who excelled in these qualities. to &C

the labor unions have. "dlsassoclated

The economic conditions made the
May election one of the most exciting
and most bitterly contested which the
country ever had. The unrest among
the laborlng people and the remedies
for the Improvement of industrial con-
ditlons became the chief issues in the
campaign. There were five candidates
for the Presidency, but the contest
was really between Sesior LEGUIA of
the Independent party and ASTERo
AsPILIAGA, representing the party In
carried the Lima district despite the
governmental influences against him.
and AsrILLAGA showed unexpected
strength In the country. The election
was claimed by both parties by ma
jorities ranging from 5000 to 10000,
and the indications were that the con-
test would be left for decision to the
Peruvian Congress, meeting on the 2Sth
of this month. LEGUIA's adherents. de-
claring that this body would be under
the control of the party in power,
forestalled this action by setting up
LEGrIA rs provisional President. 1t
remains to be seen If they have opened
the way for another South American
revolution or for the establishment of
a stable government. which Sefior

This is the sixty-6fth birthday Of
the Republican party, which took its
name and completed its organiza ton

Whatever faults it has had. what

done more for the United States than
any other political party ever did for
any other country.
The supporter Of liberty. It over
threw slavery. The party of prosper

American Free Trade. The champion
of national honesty, 1t put an end to
BRYAN's fiat money scheme.
This party of LINCOLN, MCKINLEY

that the Western visitot as amused

welf expressed, we think, concise and

Riverside Drive and Allen street the

Such speech Is hasty and shallow.
The subject deserves elaboration and
profound thought. Given these our
judgment comes to this: Our Western
critics may have defensible position
as to there being New York which
can be typified by a group or class.
True, there are stretches OF the
