CARFXG FOR BX-COXVICTS. There is F.impl^ nnd convincing logic ii* the appeal which is made in our col- umns this morning for aid in the work of raiing for discharged prisoners. This work, undertaken by the Prison \ps<>'-:m- li.m <,f Kew York, was earnestly com- mended and its extension was urged by the recent International Prison Congress at Washington, it may not be the most inviting form of benevolent effort, but it is eminently desirable from both the humanitarian and tbe civic point of view that it is worthy of being pressed upon the attention of public spirited <-iti- Eens who may b«» able to contribute to it? greater promotion. The Tribune has frequently used plain words in condemnation of Mr. Hill as a politician. He played the game of politics, as he understood it. daringly and without compunctions. He gave no quarter and asked none. He never har- bored animosities, for they would have Interfered with his success, which de- pended on his using enemies as well as friend*. He was Governor of the state for nearly seven years and United States Senator for six. and for twenty years was the dominating influence in the Democratic party here. He did many evil things and some things that were good, but he leaves no monument of public service behind him because he was a politician who consistently put his own ends before those of the voters who followed him and the narrow triumphs of partisanship before the welfare of the state. We have travelled far beyond the Hill era and its conceptions. Parties have begun to govern themselves and to boose leaders whose power rests on the will of a majority freely expressed. Mr. Hill would nave found no scope for his talents In present day politics. He wisely retired even before the retire- ment of Thomas C. Plntt. for he prob ably perceived that his race was run and that his type was about to be ex- tinguished. He lived long enough to see tlim po.>ple turn gladly t<> a new type in Charles F Huches and cut the ti^s which bound them to the (NllgfOWU >ystem which committed their salvation to middlemen in politics under the finger of an astute, unscrupulous and se'tish boas. DAViD B. HILL. David B. Hill retired from active poli- tics only about six years ac<>. hut the things "which happened In those six years had made him seem to belong to i period already far In the past. His political activities be*an in the time of Tweed and Tildeu. and he was governed throughout bis whole career by concep- tions of the art and practice of politics which were current then, but which have since been generally abandoned. Ills training taught him to consider politic* as a game played by party lead- ers for the stakes of power and public distinction. In his view the great masse* of the voters in both parties were incapable of thinking for them- selves or looking out for their own in- terests. Their prejudices and passions were to be played on and their cupidity aroused, if possible, but each party was to be governed from the top by its lead- ers, fighting with the leaders of the other party for the control of the state. Mr. Hill and the school from which he sprang had absolute confidence in the efficacy of party machinery. Their idea of parry leadership was to obtain a firm grip on the few thousands of middlemen encaced in state and county politics, to keep them under personal and political obligations and to depend on them in turn to hold local party sen- timent loyal to the policies and fortunes of the state leader. Mr. Hill spent years In mastering the arts through which the | middleman In politics could be made to ; represent I power above him rather than the voters for whom he was a nominal agent. He could never under- stand why he should lose in a political contest when the machinery remained in his control, and his greatest defeat overtook him when, with the state or- ganization absolutely in his hands, he tried to suppress Mr. Cleveland's candi- dacy for renoralnatioo in 18S2 by \u2666akin? from him the support of every New York delegate to the Democratic Na- tional Convention. The rank and file, with whom Mr. Hill never dealt or cared to deal, rebelled against him. and the Democratic National Convention, for the only time in the history of the party, nominated a Presidential candidate solidly opposed by the delegates from his own state. dertake the task. Repudiation is, of course not to be considered. It would mean foreign intervention. But perhaps retrenchment and reform and honesty of administration may in time, bring; or- der out of chaos and establish prosper- ity where now insolvency is threatened.

The Portuguese revolution, as we have already suggested, was largely pro- voked hy the unparalleled and almost in- credible pecuniary profligacy Of the old "rotativist"* monarchical parties. whi<-h plunged the nation into debt without pivinc it any compensating results In return. We are not sure that the his- tory of any other nation presents \u25a0 com- parable record of so much spent and so little to show for it. Italy has com- plained of h«>r burden of debt, imposed by Crisp! to meet the military demands of Bismarck, but at least she has a con- siderable army and nary to show for it. and moreover her debt is only about half the .-ize of Portugal's proportionately to her population. But Portugal has no army or navy worthy of the name, and f'^v public works of any kind, while under i costly system of "compulsory universal instruction" more than three-quarters r f her people are unable to read or write. The Portuguese debt is appalling, even since the readjustment and considera- ble sciilinc down v.lii.-ii occurred at \u25a0 trials in order to save the covernnient from outright insolvency a few years ago. The latest available returns show that the Interest-bearing funded debt Is more than $."i!*'i.<XX»,O<j<>, of which nearly $193,000,000 is held abroad, and that, then* is a large floating debt, bringing the grand total up to $SBS3fX>,4GO. That is an enormous figure, but its real enor- mity is perceived when it is divided by the uuniber of the population and is Sfen to mean $15527 \u25a0 bead Only one coun- try in the world equals that rate of Indebtedness, France, and few others come half way up to it. Qreat Britain grumbles over ber debt, but ii it* only a little more than .<?.(%).. < ?. ( % ) . \u25a0 bead, and Italy's i< only 179 As for our own. it is about $1430. or little more than on^eleventh as much aa Portugal*. The Interest charts on Portugal's debt amount to a per capita tax of .*.*.«;_' a rear That is the condition which the new republic has to face, it is not a pleas- ant prospect. It MiU^'«-st» that many thoughtful men may have supported the revolution with a certain reluctance Surely no statesman, unless a Colbert, a Pitt or \u25a0 Hamilton, with a rare genius exulting In achievements which to all ..tii'i- were Impossible, could welcome the task of dealing with such a situation. Eat the Portuguese Republicans must uu- Mr. Whitridce does not .'\accerate The Democratic party has never sunk to i lower estate than II has reached to-day, when the Rochester correspondent of "The New York Times" Is moved to write that for the first time in its his- tory the boss of Tammany Hall held the party state convention in the Hollow of his band. The whole Democratic campaign is an effort of the "worst set of men in American politics* and the most selfish business Interests in the state to undo the work of Roosevelt and Sashes in patting an end to "black horse cavalry" conditions." Of the Democratic party be says that a goodly number of respectable gentlemen held conferences and formed committees \u25a0nd there was \u25a0 promise of the party's rehabilitation, "but when the Democratic "convention met. ..the Intellectuals had "disappeared and Tammany .Hall, with "Mr. Murphy at the bead of it. was In "full Control In the case of the Repub- lican party there was a so.-d. rattling licliT. and the best man won : in the case "of the Democratic party there was no "fight at all, and the party succumbed "without a struggle to the worst men in "its ranks and the worst set of men in "American politics." Mr. Whitridce contrasts effectively the condition of the two parties a.< in- struments of j:o(»d government. "The "house of the Republican party in this "state has now been leaned and is in "order. It is justly entitled to the sup- "port of every man who ever called him- -yelf a Republican and to 'i' > support "of every man of whatever creed who "really desires «rr>od government: and it "is the first time la years when that •"could be said." Mr Whitridze points out that the dan- per to American institutions is from "the prevalence of corruption and ex- "travacance. from demagogic legislation* "and from inefficient and stupid adminiP- •tr.itioi: of the law." And there is less danger from this source now than ever (..'tor.- There has been an ethical re- vival, says Mr. Whitrideo. and Golonel Roosevelt "more than any one person has contributed to that awakening." The real danger to American institutions lies in giving Tammany Hall the opportunity to debauch the state administration and i.i permitting \u25a0 Murnhjized Legislature to brine bark the old relations between crooked business interests and purchas- able politicians. My faith in American Institutions is \u25a0 pood deal more robust than that of Mr. Pix. and to me he appears to be talking pure twaddle. The notion that any individual ran overturn Institutions and destroy a people, free or otherwise, I had supposed to be as dead as George 111. and when a man in his speeches pretends to believe that, even if Mr. Roosevelt were \u25a0 dishonest nan. which he i.« not. and desired to Mexlcanize the United Ptates or to play the part of a good Haroun al Raschld, it would be possible for him to do it, I feel sure that in his h^art he must know he 13 miking rubbish. Dire HUMBUG. Mr. Frederick W. Whitrldce'* pen was never sharper or more effective than in his letter to ex-Mayor Sutherland of Yonkers on the present state election. His incisive analysis demolishes th campaign of false pretences which the Democratic party is conducting. If finy one has been impressed by Its attempt to frichten the state with the bogie of "Kins"' Roosevelt he will be ashamed of his tremors when he reads Mr. Whit- ridc-e's sane comments on Mr. Dtx's re- marks about the •public enemy."

EUGENE SMITH. President Prison- Association of New York. New York. Oct. IS, 1910. A necessary public duty is being per- formed throughout the year by the prison association, to the extent of Its means. It dees not overlap the work of any other organization. The way is now offered to increase permanently the value of this work. In 1909 the prison association aided, with material assistance and other help, nearly 1.400 discharged or released pris- oners. A large percentage of such men 'make good" each year AID FOR EX CONVICTS. To the Editor of The Tribune. Sir: The recent International Prison Congress at Washington advocated mere efficient and extensive aid of prisoners after release from prison. This was one of the "keynotes" of the congress. The majority of prisoners come from rrison with a desire to abstain from crime. They meet with a cold reception on every hand, except from their former criminal associates. This Is a critical point in their lives Unless the released prisoner finds kind and sympathetic aid, honest employment, a secure foothold and new start he becomes discouraged, dis- heartened and often desperate. a life <->f crime seems alone open to him. By far the most dangerous class of criminals lit this country Is made up of ex-con- victs who have thus relapsed Into crime. The Prison Association of New York iNo. 135 East 15th street), founded in IS4I. whose work consists largely in aiding dis- charged prisoners, now faces an excep- tional chance to extend Its work and in- crease ' its efficiency.

Sir: The following statement, printed In "The New York Sun" of October 18. ma/ give an erroneous impression: ' "Henry L. Lamb', former editor of 'Troy Times," lifelong Republican, is out for John A. Dix." Mr. Lamb never was an "editor" of "Th* Troy Times" and never was a "lifelong" Republican. He has voted the Democratic ticket in the 16th Ward as often. If not more often, than the Republican. From his vote for Cleveland to the present time he has been what was formerly known as a Mug- wump. I live in the same ward and know, as do plenty of others. REPUBLICAN. Troy. N. V. Oct. 19. 1910. (P. S.— The Joke of this is Lamb is sick abed and will not be able- to register, let alone vote.) What will be th* r?!<u'.t if New Jersey says by the election of Wilson, "We are opposed to the policy of protection"? Passaic, another New Jersey city, has increased from l£ooo in ! "" to 52.000 in 1910. This is due in large part to the removal of another German Industry from Chemnitz to Fassaic— the Arnold Company. This com- pany, in order to keep its American trade, was also compelled by a former tariff to locate here. Is not that what we want?- The town of South River, another New Jersey town, has also greatly increased. A French company, through the same com- pelling influence, has located there, em- ploying a thousand or mote. Do these add to the prosperity of New Jersey? If they do. and Mr. Wilson does not know it, he is not nt to be Governor of, New Jersey. EZRA C. WILLIAMS. Orange, N. J.. Oct. 17. 1910. MR. WILSON AND THE TARIFF. To the Editor of The Tribune. Sir: Woodrow Wilson is appealing to the voters of New Jersey to elect him Gov- ernor and also at the same time to fleet a Democratic Legislature and Democratic Congressmen-all for the benefit of New Jersey He denounces the tariff, says that "it Is created for the Interests." "is beneficial only to them." "is responsible for high prices," "should be revised downward." He stated at Long Branch, according to report, that he "was always opposed to the policy of protection." Perth Amboy. a city of New Jersey, has increased In population from 17,100 in 190i> to 32.000 in 1910, owing largely to the build- ing of an immense plant in that city by a German company for the manufacture of chemicals. They have here three large fact.,iies. have Just bought a whole block of land for $200,000. have started to build a fourth factory and intend to build two more. They were compelled to come here by the protective tariff. They will operate these factories if the protective tariff com- pels them so to do, paying American wages and being a constant blessing to every in- habitant of the city, is well as of the sur- rounding country.

Ger- many, the German government has com- missioned M Thornprikler. a Netherlands artist, to draw plans for a new world's city, with greater Berlin as a model. The scheme is to unite the cities of Essen. Dortmund. Elberfeld. Barmen and Hacen under one municipal government. The cen- tral architectural feature of the proposed city is to be a monster forum.

The fact that a license must be secured for dogs housed within the corporate limits of any city In the State of New York having a population of over S)W».- 000 was made known to a man who recently became \u25a0 resident of this city, and at the first opportunity he secured the necessary permit for \u25a0 pet.

TALK OF THE DAY. Joseph If. Huston, the architect of the Pennsylvania State Capitol, has been senten< ed to a term in prison for his part in the Capitol building frauds. Pennsylvania is entitled to great credit for running down and punishini?, with- out regard to their political status or in- Suence, the men who robbed Its treasury to pay fictitious contracting bills. Arizona's population increased between 1900 and 1010 from 122.031 to 204,354. a gain Of 81,423, or 06.2 per cent. Ari- zona's future seems to be secure. Though arid, it will never be a "sage brush" commonwealth, like Nevada, which got into the Union forty years be- fore it really began to grow. Professor Albert Bushnell Hart says that New England's Yankees are be- coming extinct. But Yankees will still be produced in ample quantities in many other parts of the world. Speaking of his futile attempt at flight across the "cean, Mr. Wellman is re- ported as saying: "We knew before we "started that it conk! not be d'^ne with- "out the equilibrator. Our experiment "has shown us now that it cannot be 'done with an equilibrextor." If the logical conclusion, then, is not that it cannot be done at all, it would be in- ton sting to know what it is. The short but forcible statement of Mr. Adolph Lewisohn. . printed on an- other page, shows that he. like Mr. Isaac N. Seligman. whose denial of desertion from the Republican party was printed in yesterday's Tribune, has been mis- represented and misquoted as to" his attitude in the present campaign. He has been a consistent Republican, and before selecting his name as that of a "deserter" and holding him up to view for the purpose of influencing others the Dix managers should have learned whether Mr. I^ewisohn would "stand for" the part. What has become of those promised speeches of Judge Parker about the Mexicanizing of the Republic? Bring them on. The state is growing impatient to hear more from the Democracy about this "king business." "The Evening Post" finds fault with Colonel Roosevelt for applying its favor- ite figure of a "hoc with both feet in the trough" to the activities of Mr. Dix and Partner Huppuch in the direction of higher duties. But why does "The Post" itself restrain its righteous wrath? If Mr. Dix were a Republican the hog at the trough simile would grace "The Post's" pages every day. But since he is a Democrat, though he has been caught with his associates working for higher duties while snivelling about their -ef- fect upon the cost of living. "The Post" has nothing to say. LACK OF nCBVTAY BIDDERS. T!l, failure of private «£?«••? p,,t in I Md fw thf rnnstnirtlon n.il \u0084f,,, :t t \u0084ro.i a, evidence thntlH.r.lo Is ill roncoived and Impractlcn Me. but it is notbin s of the sort. Mr . MoAdon w, .. knows ns much about tractior ™« er * as any of the new route* critics JJJ intimated an Intention to MA for tbe operation of . the subway if it 1* Jj^« with city money, and it is gggS3s3 of roiiPtruotion with city credit that is sufficient to prevent any bidding- by pri- vate capital for both construction and operation. Where there is an alternative offered no one chooses the loss favorable opportunity. The city was in the posi- tion of the boy who was selling I horse and told the prospective purchaser "M> "father says I'm to ask you $100. but « "you won't pay that then to take *N>. Mr Mc-Adoo Is not the only one who would prefer to operate routes for which the city had furnished the capital. The lnterborou?h Rapid Transit Company in one of its latest offers to build extensions to the present subway also desired to have the city supply the capital required. That there was no bid from the Inter- borough Rapid Transit Company was not surprising. None was expected. 'Ihe Interboroujdi-Metropomnn combination was formed to preclude the possibility Of any bidding on subways, and 00 the two occasions when bids have been invit- ed there has been no bidding. Likewise there Is no occasion for surprise that no bill was received from the Bradley-Gaff- ney Steers combination. A suspicion ex- ists that the purpose of the original letter from that group of contractors -vitn Tammany affiliations was served when the traction issue was made less acute In the last municipal campaign. For the future the authorities should not be frightened by the "acceleration" campaign which is being conducted against the tiiborough route. That route offers more hope of real rapid transit to the various boroughs than any other which has been suggested. If the city can raise the money with which to build the line it. should go ahead with its pur- pose to build it in case no private capi- talist offered to do the work. When it is constructed Mr. McAdoo has signified his desire to operate it. He will probably not be the only operator available. good of individuate \u25a0\u25a0\u25a0 «« «' c whole state. \u25a0 NE^-TOBK DAILY TRIBUNE.

The Tribune has frequently used plainwords in condemnation of Mr. Hill asa politician. He played the game ofpolitics, as he understood it. daringlyand without compunctions. He gave noquarter and asked none. He never har-bored animosities, for they would haveInterfered with his success, which de-pended on his using enemies as well asfriend*. He was Governor of the statefor nearly seven years and United StatesSenator for six. and for twentyyears was the dominating influence inthe Democratic party here. He didmany evil things and some things thatwere good, but he leaves no monument

of public service behind him because hewas a politician who consistently put hisown ends before those of the voters whofollowed him and the narrow triumphsof partisanship before the welfare of thestate.

We have travelled far beyond the Hillera and its conceptions. Parties havebegun to govern themselves and to•boose leaders whose power rests on thewill of a majority freely expressed. Mr.Hill would nave found no scope for histalents In present day politics. Hewisely retired even before the retire-ment of Thomas C. Plntt. for he probably perceived that his race was runand that his type was about to be ex-tinguished. He lived long enough tosee tlim po.>ple turn gladly t<> a new typein Charles F Huches and cut theti^s which bound them to the (NllgfOWU>ystem which committed their salvationto middlemen in politics under the finger

of an astute, unscrupulous and se'tishboas.

DAViD B. HILL.

David B. Hillretired from active poli-

tics only about six years ac<>. hut thethings "which happened In those sixyears had made him seem to belong to

iperiod already far In the past. His

political activities be*an in the time of

Tweed and Tildeu. and he was governedthroughout bis whole career by concep-

tions of the art and practice of politicswhich were current then, but which

have since been generally abandoned.Ills training taught him to considerpolitic* as a game played by party lead-ers for the stakes of power and publicdistinction. In his view the great

masse* of the voters in both partieswere incapable of thinking for them-

selves or looking out for their own in-

terests. Their prejudices and passionswere to be played on and their cupidityaroused, ifpossible, but each party wasto be governed from the top by its lead-ers, fighting with the leaders of the

other party for the control of the state.Mr. Hill and the school from which

he sprang had absolute confidence in

the efficacy of party machinery. Their

idea of parry leadership was to obtaina firm grip on the few thousands of

middlemen encaced in state and county

politics, to keep them under personaland political obligations and to depend

on them in turn to hold local party sen-

timent loyal to the policies and fortunes

of the state leader. Mr. Hillspent years

In mastering the arts through which the

| middleman In politics could be made to;represent Ipower above him ratherthan the voters for whom he was anominal agent. He could never under-stand why he should lose in a politicalcontest when the machinery remainedin his control, and his greatest defeatovertook him when, with the state or-

ganization absolutely in his hands, hetried to suppress Mr. Cleveland's candi-dacy for renoralnatioo in 18S2 by \u2666akin?from him the support of every NewYork delegate to the Democratic Na-tional Convention. The rank and file,

PORTUGAL'S BAD FIXASCES.The Portuguese revolution, as we

have already suggested, was largely pro-voked hy the unparalleled and almost in-credible pecuniary profligacy Of the old"rotativist"* monarchical parties. whi<-hplunged the nation into debt withoutpivinc it any compensating results Inreturn. We are not sure that the his-tory of any other nation presents \u25a0 com-parable record of so much spent and solittle to show for it. Italy has com-plained of h«>r burden of debt, imposedby Crisp! to meet the military demandsof Bismarck, but at least she has a con-siderable army and nary to show for it.and moreover her debt is only about halfthe .-ize of Portugal's proportionately toher population. But Portugal has no armyor navy worthy of the name, and f'^vpublic works of any kind, while under i

costly system of "compulsory universalinstruction" more than three-quarters rfher people are unable to read or write.

The Portuguese debt is appalling, evensince the readjustment and considera-ble sciilinc down v.lii.-ii occurred at \u25a0

trials in order to save the covernnientfrom outright insolvency a few yearsago. The latest available returns showthat the Interest-bearing funded debt Ismore than $."i!*'i.<XX»,O<j<>,of which nearly$193,000,000 is held abroad, and that,

Mr. Whitridce does not .'\accerateThe Democratic party has never sunk toilower estate than II has reached to-day,when the Rochester correspondent of"The New York Times" Is moved towrite that for the first time in its his-tory the boss of Tammany Hall heldthe party state convention in the Hollowof his band. The whole Democraticcampaign is an effort of the "worst set

of men in American politics* and themost selfish business Interests in thestate to undo the work of Roosevelt and

Sashes in patting an end to "black horsecavalry" conditions."

Of the Democratic party be says that a

goodly number of respectable gentlemen

held conferences and formed committees\u25a0nd there was \u25a0 promise of the party'srehabilitation, "but when the Democratic"convention met...the Intellectuals had"disappeared and Tammany .Hall, with"Mr. Murphy at the bead of it. was In"full Control In the case of the Repub-lican party there was a so.-d. rattling•licliT. and the best man won:in the case

"of the Democratic party there was no"fight at all, and the party succumbed"without a struggle to the worst men in"its ranks and the worst set of men in"American politics."

Mr. Whitridce contrasts effectively

the condition of the two parties a.< in-struments of j:o(»d government. "The"house of the Republican party in this"state has now been leaned and is in"order. Itis justly entitled to the sup-

"port of every man who ever called him--yelf a Republican and to 'i'> support

"of every man of whatever creed who

"really desires «rr>od government: and it"is the first time la years when that•"could be said."

Mr Whitridze points out that the dan-per to American institutions is from"the prevalence of corruption and ex-"travacance. from demagogic legislation*"and from inefficient and stupid adminiP-•tr.itioi: of the law." And there is lessdanger from this source now than ever(..'tor.- There has been an ethical re-vival, says Mr. Whitrideo. and GolonelRoosevelt "more than any one personhas contributed to that awakening." Thereal danger to American institutions liesin giving Tammany Hall the opportunityto debauch the state administration andi.i permitting \u25a0 Murnhjized Legislature

to brine bark the old relations betweencrooked business interests and purchas-able politicians.

My faith in American Institutions is\u25a0 pood deal more robust than that ofMr. Pix. and to me he appears to betalking pure twaddle. The notion thatany individual ran overturn Institutionsand destroy a people, free or otherwise,

Ihad supposed to be as dead as George

111. and when a man in his speechespretends to believe that, even if Mr.Roosevelt were \u25a0 dishonest nan. whichhe i.« not. and desired to Mexlcanize theUnited Ptates or to play the part of agood Haroun al Raschld, it would bepossible for him to do it, I feel surethat in his h^art he must know he 13miking rubbish.

Dire HUMBUG.Mr. Frederick W. Whitrldce'* pen was

never sharper or more effective than inhis letter to ex-Mayor Sutherland ofYonkers on the present state election.His incisive analysis demolishes thcampaign of false pretences which theDemocratic party is conducting. If finy

one has been impressed by Its attempt tofrichten the state with the bogie of"Kins"' Roosevelt he will be ashamed ofhis tremors when he reads Mr. Whit-ridc-e's sane comments on Mr. Dtx's re-marks about the •public enemy." MrU*hltridge writes:

AID FOR EX CONVICTS.To the Editor of The Tribune.

Sir: The recent International PrisonCongress at Washington advocated mereefficient and extensive aid of prisoners

after release from prison. This was oneof the "keynotes" of the congress.

The majority of prisoners come from

rrison with a desire to abstain fromcrime. They meet with a cold reception

on every hand, except from their formercriminal associates. This Is a criticalpoint in their lives Unless the releasedprisoner finds kind and sympathetic aid,

honest employment, a secure foothold and

new start he becomes discouraged, dis-heartened and often desperate. a life <->f

crime seems alone open to him. By farthe most dangerous class of criminalslit this country Is made up of ex-con-victs who have thus relapsed Into crime.

The Prison Association of New YorkiNo. 135 East 15th street), founded in IS4I.whose work consists largely in aiding dis-charged prisoners, now faces an excep-

tional chance to extend Its work and in-crease 'its efficiency. A philanthropic

friend has generously pledged $25.0C0 fora permanent endowment fund, provided anequal amount be secured in pledges by theprison association by December I. 1910.The association has secured already$15,200.

JUST A TRIFLING MISTAKE.

To the Editor of The Tribune.Sir: The following statement, printed In

"The New York Sun" of October 18. ma/give an erroneous impression:'

"Henry L. Lamb', former editor of 'Troy

Times," lifelong Republican, is out for JohnA. Dix."

Mr. Lamb never was an "editor" of "Th*Troy Times" and never was a "lifelong"

Republican. He has voted the Democraticticket in the 16th Ward as often. Ifnot moreoften, than the Republican. From his vote

for Cleveland to the present time he has

been what was formerly known as a Mug-wump. Ilive in the same ward and know,

as do plenty of others. REPUBLICAN.Troy. N. V. Oct. 19. 1910.(P. S.— The Joke of this is Lamb is sick

abed and will not be able- to register, letalone vote.)

What will be th* r?!<u'.t if New Jersey

says by the election of Wilson, "We areopposed to the policy of protection"?

Passaic, another New Jersey city, hasincreased from l£ooo in !

""to 52.000 in 1910.

This is due in large part to the removal of

another German Industry from Chemnitz toFassaic— the Arnold Company. This com-pany, in order to keep its American trade,

was also compelled by a former tariff to

locate here. Is not that what we want?-The town of South River, another New

Jersey town, has also greatly increased. AFrench company, through the same com-

pelling influence, has located there, em-ploying a thousand or mote.

Do these add to the prosperity of NewJersey? If they do. and Mr. Wilson doesnot know it, he is not nt to be Governor of,

New Jersey. EZRA C. WILLIAMS.Orange, N. J.. Oct. 17. 1910.

MR. WILSON AND THE TARIFF.To the Editor of The Tribune.

Sir: Woodrow Wilson is appealing to the

voters of New Jersey to elect him Gov-ernor and also at the same time to fleet a

Democratic Legislature and DemocraticCongressmen-all for the benefit of NewJersey

He denounces the tariff, says that "it Is

created for the Interests." "is beneficialonly to them." "is responsible for high

prices," "should be revised downward."He stated at Long Branch, according to

report, that he "was always opposed to the

policy of protection."Perth Amboy. a city of New Jersey, has

increased In population from 17,100 in 190i>

to 32.000 in 1910, owing largely to the build-ing of an immense plant in that city by a

German company for the manufacture of

chemicals. They have here three large

fact.,iies. have Just bought a whole blockof land for $200,000. have started to build a

fourth factory and intend to build two

more. They were compelled to come here

by the protective tariff. They will operate

these factories if the protective tariff com-pels them so to do, paying American wagesand being a constant blessing to every in-habitant of the city, is well as of the sur-

rounding country.

ported as saying: "We knew before we

"started that it conk! not be d'^ne with-"out the equilibrator. Our experiment

"has shown us now that it cannot be

'done with an equilibrextor." If the

logical conclusion, then, is not that itcannot be done at all, it would be in-ton sting to know what it is.

The short but forcible statement ofMr. Adolph Lewisohn. . printed on an-

other page, shows that he. like Mr. IsaacN. Seligman. whose denial of desertionfrom the Republican party was printed

in yesterday's Tribune, has been mis-represented and misquoted as to" his

attitude in the present campaign. Hehas been a consistent Republican, andbefore selecting his name as that of a

"deserter" and holding him up to viewfor the purpose of influencingothers the

Dix managers should have learnedwhether Mr. I^ewisohn would "stand for"the part.

What has become of those promised

speeches of Judge Parker about theMexicanizing of the Republic? Bring

them on. The state is growing impatient

to hear more from the Democracy about

this "kingbusiness."

"The Evening Post" finds fault with

Colonel Roosevelt for applying its favor-

ite figure of a "hoc with both feet in the

trough" to the activities of Mr. Dix and

Partner Huppuch in the direction of

higher duties. But whydoes "The Post"

itself restrain its righteous wrath? If

Mr. Dix were a Republican the hog at

the trough simile would grace "The

Post's" pages every day. But since he is

a Democrat, though he has been caught

with his associates working for higher

duties while snivelling about their -ef-

fect upon the cost of living."The Post"

has nothing to say.

™ LACK OF nCBVTAY BIDDERS.T!l, failure of private «£?«••?

p,,t in IMd fw thf rnnstnirtlon n.il

\u0084f,,, :t t \u0084ro.i a, evidence thntlH.r.lo

Is illroncoived and Impractlcn Me. but it

is notbins of the sort. Mr. MoAdon w,..knows ns much about tractior ™«er*as any of the new route* critics JJJintimated an Intention to MA for tbe

operation of. the subway if it 1* Jj^«with city money, and it is gggS3s3of roiiPtruotion with city credit that is

sufficient to prevent any bidding- by pri-

vate capital for both construction andoperation. Where there is an alternative

offered no one chooses the loss favorableopportunity. The city was in the posi-

tion of the boy who was selling Ihorse

and told the prospective purchaser "M>

"father says I'm to ask you $100. but «"you won't pay that then to take *N>.

Mr Mc-Adoo Is not the only one who

would prefer to operate routes for which

the city had furnished the capital. The

lnterborou?h Rapid Transit Company in

one of its latest offers to build extensionsto the present subway also desired to

have the city supply the capital required.

That there was no bid from the Inter-

borough Rapid Transit Company wasnot surprising. None was expected. 'IheInterboroujdi-Metropomnn combinationwas formed to preclude the possibilityOf any bidding on subways, and 00 the

two occasions when bids have been invit-

ed there has been no bidding. Likewisethere Is no occasion for surprise that nobill was received from the Bradley-Gaff-ney Steers combination. A suspicion ex-ists that the purpose of the original letter

from that group of contractors -vitnTammany affiliations was served when

the traction issue was made less acute

In the last municipal campaign.For the future the authorities should

not be frightened by the "acceleration"campaign which is being conductedagainst the tiiborough route. That route

offers more hope of real rapid transit to

the various boroughs than any other

which has been suggested. If the city

can raise the money with which to build

the line it. should go ahead with its pur-

pose to build it in case no private capi-

talist offered to do the work. When it is

constructed Mr. McAdoo has signified

his desire to operate it. He willprobablynot be the only operator available.
