MORE AND MORE PLAIN.

nov. MILLER strains his case when he uses
~ the argument for Port of New York dis.
trct as prop for his proposal 10 destroy municipal
home rule in traction settlements
At hearing yesterday on the proposed compac!
between State authorities of New York and New
jersey TO recognize the Port of New York as an
area Of interstate interest and development Gov.
Miller Pointedly dwell upon "the inefficiery anil
Incompetence" Of the present Administration in
New York City as a special reason "for the Stale
to step in and rescue people in their own interests"
He went on to say;
There has been good deal of talk about
home rule, and It has been made fetish to
cover misrule and misgovernment, and the PEG.
pie who are talking Of It with respect to the
municipalities Of the State are looking at It
from an entirely wrong angle.
THE State is sovereign within its sphere
The municipalities have been created by the
State They the mere creatures of the
State agencies for local administration and
their justification or excuse for the exercise of
power stops at the point where they cease
to be able effectively and efficiently to handle
the problems"
Obviously the Governor means This for the oppo-
nentS Of his traction programme.
But surely here are two different things:
The problem of port development does affect,
as Gov. Miller says not only the 100000 people
of New York City, but the more than 100000
people of the State and the many more millions
of the entire country.
Port development particularly in the case of this
port, is, indeed more than a local matter.
Is the same true in like degree OF the Neorganiza-
ton cf surface, subway and elevated lines serving
primarily the 100000 people OF this city?
Are street railways no more local than shipping
facilities for the commerce of State, Nation and
world?
At first it seemed that Gov Miler's traction pre-
gramme might be a well-meant, albeit tactless,
move to do for this city what futile Administra-
ton had failed to do in getting at the facts of the
transit situation and working out-with State ami
municipal oo-operation-a remedy
1t is now evident the plan was much deeper, more
definite and deliberate
In fact, it grows more and more apparent that
to steady Republican Legislature in carrying out
orders every possible present condition, proposal
or need in city or commonwealth is to be con-
veHed into argument and concentrated on the de-
struction of whatever municipal authority stands
in the way of immediate higher fares on transit
lines in the City of New York.

fine article for college men to read,
and Hammond is a college man
himself.
The college man is not Disseminated
against in any way when seeking em-
ployment. The only individual who
finds it hard to get work is the college
man who insists on advising the pros
pective employer continually that he
is a college man. heard one in
dividual advise a prospective en-
ployer three times in fifteen minutes
that he was a college man, but he
neglected to answer two very i'm
portant questions during this time.
The average college man holds a
very good job and it is only The in
dividual who goes out looking for
work with the idea that somewhere
in this or some other city there are
special jobs at special salaries for
college men. II they think this they
certainly will not find them any more
than they will find special seats in the
subway for college men during rush
hours. w. H. BURBANK.

To the Editor q Tho Evening World:

Taxes and Armaments.


nc the Editor u The BvoninE World,
Last Sunday was a guest at a
party OF about twenty people. COM
posed of men and women OF affairs.
During the evening the main topic of
conversation was taxes-especially in
come taxes. If our politicians at Wash
ington had heard the remarks and
opinions OF these people about the out
rageous confiscation called income
tax, they would have no doubt about
what people are thinking and talking
about most of the time. The Evening
World was highly commended for the
articles they continue to publish on
the subject. All other papers seem to
have got tired or for some other
reason have stopped saying much
about excessive taxes, At least since
election. There's no doubt but taxes
caused the Republican landslide last
election. To-day practically every
voter has his eye firmly on Washing
ton, and woe betide the present in
Cumbents IL they fail to stop the
scandalous spending of taxpayers
money and reduce taxes.
We don't need navy costing bill
! lions in order to lick England and
| free" Ireland in order to pander to
q handful OF ignorant Irish here.
No country is going to invade the
United States.
Surprising some country was insane
enough to attempt the job and sue
cceded in landing ten, twenty or fifty
or a hundred thousand men on either
the Atlantic or Pacific Coast, how
long would It take to annihilate OF
chase them into the sea. There's as
much chance Of the U. S. A. being in
into green cheese.

PLAGUE THAT FOLLOWS WAR
In All Ages Rlnderpest Has Marked
the Path Taken by Armies
on Their March.

The newspapers told recently Of the
trouble that arose when the authori-
ties of Montevideo refused to admit
to that port little dog owned by a
woman who had taken 1t there on a
passenger steamer, the refusal being
based upon the epidemic Of rlnder-
pest prevailing among the cattle of
Uruguay. Rlnderpest is the most ter
rlble of the diseases that affect cat
tie, and is often called simply "cattle
plague"
1t affects, so far as Is known, only
the ruminant, cloven-footed animals
oxen, sheep, goats, camels, etc.-but
is so infectious that 1t may be car
rled from one herd to another by at
tendants, dogs, cats and birds or by
fodder. Therefore, the dog was ex-
cluded from fear not that It would
contract the disease but that 1t might
contribute to spreading It.
The cause Of rinderpest is not yet
definitely known, but It is an ancient
disease which always breaks out after
great wars. The ravages Of the Goths
and Huns In the early Middle ages
were followed by frightful epidemics
Its commonest symptoms are fever,
cough, dysentery and exhaustion. It's
mortality is high, but the disease is
not necessarily fatal.

orossmIth Defines Humor.

Lawrence Grossmith, the English
comedian, is quoted as saying: "There
is no more difference between English
and American humor than there is
between English and American trag-
edy. All humor whether It be Eng
lish or American, depends upon the
seriousness with which the person try
Ing to be humorous acts the fool. This
may sound like paradox, but It is
one of the most extraordinary para
doxes which are vitality true II an
actor does not enter into his humor
with the full possession Of his senses
and all his faculties he misses the
most of 1t.
ITO be humorous 1t is necessary to
lose oneself in ones part, retaining
just sufficient interpretive faculties
to feel the sincerity OF ones acting.
Sincerity here, MS in all other branches
Of acting is the maInstay. And sin
certify gets across the footllghts
whether 1t is in Germany, France,
England or America, whether In trag-
edy, comedy musical or dramatic
plays"

KaIseps Coach Brought Trade.

The ex-kalser's gala carriage is for

strokes of business I ever made was
to buy IT," said Herr zielka, owner Of
a Friedrichstrass establishment con-
tanning a restaurant, billiard room and
theater Of varieties, according to the
Continental edition OF the London
Mail.
II bought It from the court-marshal
and used It as an advertisement for
the theater. Every night the carriage
drove up to my theater and out
stepped grand gentleman or lady
with the air Of royal parsonage.
Naturally, crowds followed into the
theater. Unhappily the royalIsts made
such a fuss that the police forbade
me TO continue using It."

PROPERLY RANKED AS HERO
Deserved Tribute to Collie Who Gave
Master the Last Full Meas
ure Of Devotion"

Clyde Scott, four years old, lies
dying on his fathers farm near Beck
ley, w. Va. His pet collie is dead. A
vicious sow, bearing the scars of bat
tie to the finish, is so badly mangled
that she must be killed, too.
1t is one Of those simple stories of
a dog to which all human sympathy
responds, remarks the Baltimore Sun.
The boy, playing in the yard, was at
tackled by the SOW, which had escaped
its pen. Hearing the child's screams
the collie rushed to the rescue and
engaged the sow In fight. 1t needs
no assurance of the telegraphed Item
to tell him who knows his dog the
details.
The child's mother came into the
picture, bearing her torn baby to safe
ty. But the dog remained. His was
4 supreme duty, that knew no COM
promise. The Infatuated sow was a
his business to remove that menace,
and into the Job he put his concern.
1t was his concern only to remove
the menace, and at any cost. His
own life mattered not at all, and in
the end he lost 1t, in as noble strug-
gle for what he believed to be right
eous as any that ever frightened the
annals Of man or nation.
We do not know the little cOllle's
name. If we did we should like to
print 1t in honorable memory of his
gallant conduct. He was soldier
and a gentleman; he was devoted
comrade and playmate; he was all
that n dog is and that man should
be. We hope he had Christian bur-
ial, for he was a Christian, IL to be
Christian implies sacrifice Of self and
love for others. He was all of that
and he was hero-a hero on four
legs,
