A Fight to a Finish.
It is proverbially difficult to put an
end Io any system of gambling that
baa long been treated with public in

country, Like slavery. they were once
found in all the states, and were
fought slowly to the last ditch. Gam
bling is forliidiion in the constitution
of New York, but by a juggling law
Iwttmg ha» been
allowed on race
tracks in that state, though treated
as a felony outside of auch incloe-
urea.
Gov. Hughe» deliberately took
up the issue, realizing at the same
time that it would involve him in a
fierce battle with the Legislature and
the powerful interests involved. To
some extent the officeholding class,
not only in New York, but in Wash
ington, secretly tried to give the gov
ernor a political fall. Gov. Hughes'
position was that the law, cunningly
flamed to permit racetrack gam
bling was not only essentially im
moral. but violated the plain intent
and spirit of the stole constitution.
This was the text of the many ad
dresses he
made on
the subject
throughout the state. His manner of
debate was simple, earnest and logical.
He never lost hie temper, and grounded
firmly in the legal features of the case,
he urged the question upon the con
science of the state.
Toe fight was narrowed down lo the
State Senate,
where the race-track
gamblers had organized a powerful
support.
All sorts of trickery were
used to deceive and confuse the mem.
Ilers not likely to be corrupted. Forged
p -titions and telegrams figured in the
tactics.
When the matter was first
brought to a vole in the Senate the
g on biers won by a tie vole, 25 to 25.
But Gov. Hughes had just begun to
fight. When the Legislature adjourned
lie called an extra session and an election
to fill a vacancy caused by the death of
a senator. Into the district, composed
of two counties, lie went to make
»lieeches on the race-track evil and
also, in order to arouse public senti
ment, spoke in the large cities. The
gamblers
poured a great deal of
money into the district, and many
office bidders, including some of the
federal variety, stealthily backed them
ter political capital,
but the anti
gambling candidate was elected l>y a
small majority.
One of the senators
against the gamblers was priatrated
by sickness, and was barely able to
go to Albany to cast his vote,
But
lie was on liahd at the critical mo
meat and the anliganibling law ie as
passed by 26 to 25.
Without the strong (lacking of «he
moral, law abiding
element of the
state, Gov. Hughes could not have
pushed through this Important re
form. But he holds that the majority
of the people want to do what ia right
and |that, in the end, right must pre
vail. If the second vote in the Senate
had b-eii against him he would have
carried the content to
the people
of New York and made it a burning
issue in the next campaign. But his
courageous,
persevering
leadership
with the state iiehind it, has settled
the matter without recourse to the
supreme tribunal—the people. in the
direct ssaeriion of their sovereignty.
Gov. Hughes was determined that I lie
dear intent of the constitution should
be respvcted. He acted in the name
of the law. not in a spirit of egotism
or from thirst of personal glory. He
has earned the congratulations of all
who stand by the tight and are ready
to help in battling with a public evil._

The recovery from disturlied finnneial
conditions has been more rapid in the
United States than in the other countries
affected. One reason for thia fact is
that we have been able, as a creditor na
tion, to draw money from abroad in
such quantities as were needed. Our im
portations have beeen diminished nioie
than $90,900,000, compared with last
year, and exports have increased, so
that the balance of trade in our favor
is the largest ever known. There is a
striking point connected with the chai ge
in the commercial tide that may have
escaped general notice. We are getting
imports at lawer prices, while our ex
ports generally are bringing more money
than before, which adds to the favorable
balance and shows that the advantage
of the situation is with us.

With the ostensible object of impress
ing the non English-speakiiig foreigners
of Schuylkill County, Pa Sheriff Evans
admitted about 600 of these men to the
jail enclosure at Pottsville, Tuesday, to
witness the legal hanging of Felix Rad-
zius, 19 years old, for the murder of his
aunt and her 4 year-old son last Decem
ber. At the same time photographers
were allowed to picture the scene of the
tragedy so that it might be disseminated
broadcastas a warning. The sheriff has
the idea that this will make a deeper
impress on the foreign population than
could be attained in any other way. It
was the first time in the state that a
hanging had been photographed. The
condemned man, a fine specimen of bod
ily health and strength, went to the
scaffold without flinching. He had show n
no regret for his crime and find urged an
early day for the execution, forbidding
his lawyers to appeal the case.

Some of the senators who u-ged an
appropriation for tour battleships hint,
ed vaguely at conditions demanding a
hurried addition to the most formidable
part of the navy. It is best not to make
a mystery of such matters in the United
States, nor do the people understand
that they are at the ineicy ol diplomatic
programes secretly prepared by any of
our own official representatives. The
people alor.e ordain war ; they must
tight it and pay lor it. Congress alone
can declare war. If there are any
dangerous obscurities in the Pacific, the
people should lie told « h it they are and
not be urged to’go into a blind pool
urmament as a precaution against some
hidden menace.
By the voyage of a
powerful fleet lo the Pacific we are put
thereon a good defensive footing. We
conld strike back at once if assailed in
that quarter. Jajmn has s od distinct,
ly that it has no such designs, and no
Buiopean nation or concert is likely to

Gov. Nwansoo, of Virginia argues that
it would be useless as well as illndvised
to prevent Mr. Bryan's nomination at
Denver because, in the governor's opin
ion, another defeat of the Parker type
would make Bryen inevitable in 1912
and relatively stronger in the party
than now. On the other hand, the gov
ernor assumes that a third deleat for
Bryan this rear will settle his claims and
give the party a chance to shape its own
course hereafter. Gov. Swanson is one
of the varieties of Jeffersonian Drmo

individualities and originaliti-s ol opin
ion. In this instance, the advice is to
