EVEN e exigencies of the situation be- so aparent after the famous ler telegram, that Governor Odell decided to submit to the Inovltablo and support ttad candidacy of Mr. Root. Everything would havo been plain sailing after that, wore It not Tor the fact that tho reckoning had been made without tho host. It had always boon taken for granted that Mr. Root was a candidate for nomi nation and It seems that nobody took pains to ascertain his views on. tho subject It appears from statements by several Republican leaders who are In close touch, with tho former secretary of war, that he is not wil ling to bo a candidate for th eniipr. national nomination and there is a great deal of mysterious talk of a letter which ex-Secretary Root is said to havo written to Governor Odell, positively declining the honor of be coming tho Republican candidate for governor. Various rumors concerning that letter are In circulation, but nothing positive Is known, as Gover nor Odell declines to make tho con tents of the letter public. Leading Republicans are still In hones that tho united persuasive powers of President Roosevelt and his lieutenants la the campaign will finally succeed In chang ing the mind of Mr. Root. of his p)an.

He has Informed his friends, that ho would accopt tho nomination, should It bo offered to him and tho only question now is, whothor the! vuuvuiiwuu win see m 10 maKO mo offer. Mr. Chanlor has ,a good politi cal record and many Influential Demo crats are of the opinion' that he would make a very strong candidate. . Tho Brooklyn Rapid Transit com pany undoubtedly holds tho record as champion, killer. A statistician has figured out that on an avorago four hundred persons aro killed or injured by the cars of that company every year. It Is truo, a great many of theso cases aro duo to the reckless ness of tho traveling public, but qutto a considerable percentage Is directly caused by the Incapability of the man agement and tho inefficiency of Its employes. A merry, war has broken out be tween Street Commissioner Woodbury on ono side and the street peddlers and pitBhcart men on tho other. Com missioner Woodbury., who has tho rep utatlon of being able to Invent mora Impracticable schemes In one day than all' tho other heads of municipal de partments together In a year, has con ceived tho absurd plan of driving the pushcart man off tho streets and compel them to congregate within n certain place, which he has selected for them and which happens to bo under the approach to tho Williams burg bridge. That his plan is absurd and illogical does not seem) to worry i Mr. Woodbury at all and It Is doubt- i ful that he Is aware of the absurdity Don't run mo down a steep hill, for If anything should give way, I might break your neck.

Necessity Is a hard task master and tho poorer classes havo no alternative. They must eat and as they cannot obtain meat they must cat vegetable food.
