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

Answer. There In no advantage in

nurse was taught such hokum in her
