To Start Early


 Indications are that Republican leaders will start preparations soon for the borough election next spring. If this is so, it will be quite unusual and an indication that ap- parently the party, which has been beaten by decisive margins in elec- tion since 1884. has hopes of vic- tory for the next election.
 Such preparations might include increased activity by the Republican burgesses as concerns issues of a controversial nature. It is not be- lieved the question of junior high school here will be injected into the spring campaign. This proposal was defeated in recent special election, and was of a non-partisan nature, although Republican members of the board of education favored it and Democratic members opposed 1t. The vote on it was not believed to have been along any party lines. It would not be at all surprising however to see the local political situation "liven up" within the next few months.

MORE FUNDS ASKED
BY TRAVELLERS AID
Increase in Assistance Needs
Cited to Chest in Request
for $41.7l4 in 1899.

An increase Of $2,sss for the Travel
ers' Aid Society next year to provide
for IN ever-increasing demand on the
society was asked yesterday by Mrs.
Margaret Ford, executive secretary,
in her report to the Budget Commit
tee of the Community Chest.
Mrs. Ford told the committee that
the number Of unfortunates applying
to the society for aid Is constantly
mounting and that more funds are
needed to give them immediate as
sistance. She said that "out Of 24,615
cases handling during the last year
the great majority require aid for .
very short time"
Only So out Of the total were car
ried for more than six months, she
reported. The increase asked would
bring the 1899 total allowance for the
society to $41,714.
Mrs. Harlan Fisk Stone, wife Of the
associate justice Of the Supreme Court,
is president Of the society.

ton Of the Leagues purposes had
not become an integral factor in party
politics and kept the United States
out Of the League. The machinery
Of the Geneva League and the Kel-
Aogg pacts to renounce war could
have been and can yet be successful
in applying moral force to bring out
into the open the facts Of international
friction and to find q way for the
proposal of objective solutions that
all mankind would support.
Certainly European governments
have the choice this week Of using
physical force again which settles
nothing, because, while one genera
ton can be conquered, its children
will not stay vanquished. The Eu-
ropean powers have the opportunity
to try settlement by moral force, but
without the active pacifism Of the
United States no such result can be
obtained
Mr.. Roosevelt can mobilize the
moral forces of all the world behind
demand that causes at issue be
fully exposed to view and that an
international mechanism for execut-
ing solutions, proposed or already
agreed upon, be established, in which
the disinterested minds OF American
diplomats like Secretary Hull should
play mediating and healing part.
There are, therefore, opportunities
for American service which cannot
be specifically dismissed as "entan-
clement" or "meddling," but must be
considered as the sincere contributions

NO CITY MANAGER

City Manager A. f. Fuller of
Miami is facing a move by the
National Citizens of America in
Dade County to replace the city
manager form of government
with an aldermanic authority.
Manager Fuller has lived in Mi
ami nearly all his life, loves the
place, and hopes never to leave
it. California cities have nearly
doubled in offers the present
salary Fuller is getting but he re-
fuses to leave his city. 1t is un-
derstood that, although Fuller is
of such excellent calibre and
shrewdness that his reputation is
known over the country, he is
still tied down hand and foot by
politicos of Miami. This is a les
son Key West should bear in
mind in its present move toward
a city managership. Have our
manager uncontrolled and re-
sponsible only to the City Coun-
ell who viii act as a check on
.exorhitant expenditures and block
any move which win favor Ger
tain groups at the expense of the
many. One thing, the city at
present is most receptive to learn
ing high powered civic salesman
