guised himself as a wolf hunter In

we should like to know about Mr..
WrLLIAMs's other exploits, of which
no doubt there have been many worth
recording.
We regret that Mr.. MERRITT believes
we wrote originally Of Nimrod WILL
IAMs and the Custer woodsmen in q
spirit of criticism of the Department
of Agriculture and the Biological Sur
vey. Far from 1t. Our wonder was
excited by the fact that the Custer
men. bold, brave and gifted body
needed help to slay any poacher. II

The Socialist candidate for Presi-
dent is usually described by his adj
mirers as "a lovable character" There.
fore 1t Is surprising to find him say
ing on election night:
II shall not be disappointed over
the results of the election, as the peo-
pie will get what they think they
| wantin so far as they think at ALL"
The 'lovable" qualities are showed
aside by the Socialist obsession Of in
tellectual superiority. The Socialist
and the Red think, and think, and
think. 1t seems never to occur to
them that they are thinking the wrong
thoughts. AS their course takes them
further and further up the dark, mar
row, tortuous alley they wonder why
they are alone. They cannot realize
that most of the people are staying on
the broad, straight, lighted road.
But EUGENE DEBs was not alone on
election night in his misconception of
the mental powers Of the electorate.
Our neighbor the World swallowed
the landslide in this fashion:
The American people wanted a
change. and they have voted for n
change. They did not know what
kind Of change they wanted. and
they do not know to-day what kind
of change they have voted for"
If the people did not know after
more than year Of the most inten-
sive campaign Of this generation what
they were voting for does not the
World despair that they Will ever vote
intelligently on any subject2
Unfortunately for the World the
facts are "agin" 1t. The three States
where illiteracy is at its worst-Loui-
siana, South Carolina and Alabama
voted for the Worlds candidate, Mr..
Cox. The three States where there
Is least llliteracy-Iowa, Nebraska and
Oregon-went for Mr.. HARDINa.
But we must make allowances for
the hot anguish Of election night. The
'lovable" DEBs was In jail and the
'ovable World was In a temper.

FLORIDA COAST C0QUINO.
Highly Priced Small Member Of tn,
Clam Family.
From the Florida Ftshermon


With O gentle surf rolling In on the
sandy beach comes the coquino. the
smallest edible of the clam family, and
by long odds the daintiest and most deli
cately favored. AS the surf recedes one
may see scores and hundreds of little
multicolored flashes which almost in
stantly disappear In the shell sand.
Draining a shovelful Of this sand
through sieve one may pick out dozens
of the little clans. Repeat this until
a quart OF more have been secured.
Wash thoroughly and then pour boiling
little coquinos like a book. when the
meat may be picked out with a pick
or table fork and added to the broth.
This served as clam broth or bouillon or
as soup with crackers Is one of the
most delicately appetizing Of seaside
dishes.
The scalding does not dim or destroy
the coloring of the shells. which, open
ing In pairs. have a fowerlike beauty
that has earned for them the name, of
butterfly clam and made them greatly
sought for decorative purposes.
When they first appear the coquinos
are only from one-third to half an inch
In length, but as the cooler weather
comes In November and December they
grow nearly twice that size. which is
well, as they are one Of the most highly
priced finds OF the Northern visitor.

How Did Nimrod williams XIII the

STREET ACCIDENTS.
Pedestrians, Like Automobile Drivers
Are Sometimes Careless.

To THE NEW York HERALD: It is as
sumed ~ q matter of course when a
pedestrian is injured by an automobile
that the driver is at fault. No one seems
to think that the majority OF accidents
could be avoided II pedestrians would
use a little ordinary hoyse sense when
crossing streets.
Some time ago I sat on Jury trying
a case where a woman was suing a street
railway company and OF course had the
usual number OF witnesses to show the
railroads carelessness. It was shown that
the woman. crossing the street diago-
nally, walked deliberately into the centre
of the side of the car and did not see It.
The Judge told us very plainly before
giving the case to us that the sidewalks
belonged to pedestrians. the streets to
vehicuiar traffic and the crosswaIks be-
longed to both and each had an equal
right 10 use them. and each must re-
spect the rights OF the other.
An educational campaign Is needed.
The automobiles has some rights, for he
lis now paying all sorts Of taxes, licenses,
&c. for the privilege Of using our streets,
and 1 firmly believe that a very large
majority of automobile drivers are care
full and law abiding. D. L. FRANK.

Thst Vote Trading Deluslon.

Some campaign delusions perish
with the election. Others persist in
spite Of their absurdity.
Before election Mr.. SAM GoMPEBs
was going to cast "the whole labor
vote for Cox" Before election the
policemen and flremen, according to
persons who pretended to speak for
them, were going to turn the vote Of
this city against SMITH. The returns
allowed how silly this talk was.
The delusion that fingered among
the feeble minded after election was
that the Republican and Democratic
organizations had fattened the Har-
ding, Smith and certain other votes
by trading.
Senator HARDING carried CHARLES
r. MUBPHY's own Assembly district,
the Gas House district Did Mr..
MURPHY cunningly arrange this so
that he could lose what patronage
he has been able to squeeze out Of
the Democratic Administration? Did
he swing his district to HARDING so
that his friend MCCARTHY, the United
States Marshal. would lose his job
next March?
There have been trades in politics.
but in an election like last Tuesdays
the proportion Of trading is far
smaller than the percentage of alcohol
in near beer. Trying to trade votes
this year was like trying to swap
whispers in a whirlwind.

Chamberlain Of oregon.

Senator CHAMBERLAIN will yield his
seat to RoBEBr N. STANFIEIp, Repub-
lican, on the fourth Of next March,
None of the Democratic Senators
swept back into private life by the
vote of last Tuesday Will carry home
a finer certificate Of patriotic service
than the gentleman who was chair
man of the Senate Committee on Mill
tary Affairs in the Sixty-fourth and
Sixty-fifth Congresses and first Of the
minority members Of that committee
in the Slxty-sixth.
Like Senator WApswoRrH Of New
York, who succeeded him as chairman
when the Senate turned Republican.
Senator CHAMBERLAIN possessed a
special and infinitely accurate knowl-
edge of the affairs coming within his
legislative province. His mind was ms
clear as bell, his Judgment broad
and impartial, his initiative fertile
and his industry unconquerable. The
loyal efforts Of such q man in such a
post during a war period such as that
which we have experienced are fairly
comparable In Importance to those of
Cabinet officer. @
Therefore all those who remember
the time when Democrats and Re.
publicans in Congress and out of
Il we're working together without
thought of partisanshlp to support
the Government In an effective prose
cution of the war Will always recall
with respect and gratitude the part
GEORGE f. CHAMBERLAIN took In that
tremendous enterprise. With regard
to the selectfve draft, !. to coast de-
/ fence, to food control and military
transportation and to an inflnitude OF
detailed legislation connected with
military operations his record Is sur
charged with meritorious service
And there stands out. to his everlast
ing credit as early and as keen per-
ception of the need Of national pre-
paredness as If be had shared the
clnirvoyance of THEoDoRES ROOSEVELT
himself.
A good American Of engaging per-
sonalIty and great ability. the author
of the Chamberlain Military Prepared
ness bill of 1918 and the doer of count
less things which helped America tt
win the war has earned a secure place
In the list of those who were the
makers Of victory.
