Fair warn ." . , ; i -- , THE NEW YORK THE NEWARK Tribune uVplorcs llio undignified BquiiMilo be tween the "chief executive of our Brent eomnutiwenlth" and r.ne of Americii's lending newspaper publishers. , What must the rest of the Kreat city, wlien t lie; governor of the stiite, and the most powerful figure in metropolitan journalism call each other liars, black legs id cut-throats, and roll about in the gutter, like n couple of dirty faced newsboys. Well, the rest of tho country probably thinks it is typically Knickerbockerean, which it is. 1'olitically, New York is tough, and with brief intervals, always has been.-' Al Smith was educated on the sidewalks of New York and in proud of it. William Randolph Hearst spent a few yenrs at Har vard, but really inarliciilalcd southwest of Forty-second street, and liroadway. . . ( ' Al Smith, it is true, rose above his early environment, while Hearst fell far below, hut in the heat of physical comlmt, it is only natural they should revert to a primitive and common, very common, plane. Instead of deploring the siiuation wo should think tho emi nently rcspoelablu New York Tribnno (and Herald) would welcome it. For with Hearst and Tammany engaged in a rough and tumble, there would seem sonic chance of defeating both, and providing New York with a disinterested husincss-like administration-for a change. The Tribune prohably realizes, however, that the chance is slim. The fate Mayor Mitchell gave New York one of the ipost efficient administrations in its history, hut hu was turned out in favor of tho politicians. ' The melancholy fact is a majority of the people of New York Oily do not want what is known in the rest of the country, as good government. They want a government that will appeal to their prejudices and pocket hooks. So in spite of this unsavory, "family quarrel" odds against a victory for Waterman are being quoted at two to one. However there is always a chance. And the more bitter and undignified the Hearst-Smith fracas hecomes, the better tho chance. So more power to their elbows and larnyxes, let the "had" little light go on. , - I QUILL About the only thing reformers i'!ie- One way to be lmppily married is to realize how little you de serve.
