Tammany Friends of Head Of
Industrial Board Object TO
Filling ''Dead Mems Shoes''


The friends in Tammapy Hall Of
Edward F. Boyle, the newly app, intef
chairman Of the State Industrial Com
mission, are beginning to despair Of his
getting away from the funereal atmos-
phere of political dead mems shoes"
Mr. Boyle has been consistent occu-
pant Of them for many years, and his
colleagues III the Tammany Executive
Committee, of which he is chairman,
are silently hoping that the next ap-
pointment for Commissioner Boyle will
lift him out of the enforced habit of
succeeding dead man in public Office
When Governor Smith appointed him
chairman of the Ind strial Commits
sion, it was because John Mitchell, the
former labor leader, had died and left
The place vacant.
Boyle was elected by the Tammnny
aldermen as president of the Borough
of Manhattan to succeed the late
Frank l.. Bowling.
On April IT, 1918. '1r. Boyle was APP
pointed justice of the Municipal
Court to fill the vacancy caused by the
death Of Hiram M Kirk.
Commissioner Boyle owes his prom
inence in the Tammany organization
partly to the fact that back in the mid
summer of 1910 John j. Harrington,
Tammany leader of the 18th Assembly
District, died, leaving a vacancy in the
executive committee and to this va
cancy Mr.. Boyle was chosen.

We have heard some complaint
about the new rules rs to freight de-
liverics. so we took it upon ourselves
to go to our accommodating agent,
Mr.. Harris, and inquire as to the
"why" OF such regulations. We find
that the matter is an order from the
State Railroad Commission, which
al agents are bound to obey; so ii VIC
are inconvcnienccd IL little we can I
blame Mr. Harris.
The order provides that all freight
dcpots must be kept open each day

during the following hours: S Il; III. .
t" y y. m. for delivering freight; and
$ Il. m. to / p. N. for receipt Of less

be p. M. for delivery and | D. m

governed accordingly. no One will he
hurt by the ruling: but if you do

The epidemic should be checked

that public sentiment will quickly
centre OH the ACCESSIBILITY Of closing

the remainder Of the school year.
Such Il step will be unfortunate in
one sense. to be sure. But does 1t
have any weight when placed the
balance against the vital question Of
health--wc might even say, the
more vital question of life and
death? 1t seems to us that there Is
little room for a question at all.
Let the schools be closed, and let
public gatherings be restricted To
