Continued from Page One. York patronage situation.-^Washing- ton 'Correspondence, Brooklyn Eagle. TrueT words never were writ. Most fortunate for the Wilson administra¬ tion, its son-in-law Is in South Amer¬ ica where Administration Democrats sincerely hope he may remain, or, bet¬ ter still, be marooned, till after the St. Louis Convention. Gibboney having subsided and Dudley Field Malone having tumbled a whole stairway, tbe process uf thawing out Tammany is meeting marked success. Another and more i>eniocratlc Administration alHO began its career by starving Old Tige, but subsequently it detailed Its chef to deliver to hini all the deli¬ cacies of the seattou, uot forgetting the choicest of deseerts. Observers of the world's progress have noted that history has the remarkable liabit of repeating itself.
Powet.** aH naturally gravitate with tlieir powetry to our esteemed con- tempories, the Hempstead Inquirer and tbe Rockville Centre Herald, as hens to dark corners in the produc¬ tion of their particular fruit. The fornier has a sun-parlor at the south¬ western corner of one of its pages where it displays conapicuouHly the products of their gifted pens. The latter is not so scrumptious an Its contemporary but the powet gets there juHt the same. The spring powetry this year appears to be of an especially liigh order as the perusal of their pages will convince. "A Bud in Early Spring," by Powet Cable, In the Herald, deals with a sweet niles who has tripped across the powetical vision. She fades from view thu.s in the closing verse, which Is liere given verbatim et literatim as it appears in the Herald: All will opon their eyes quite wde.
To better take cmyfw eAheluyqfw 'Ti!C one of tlie best productions, A bud, and a Sprlngtinie-queen. Who shall say that literature is not enriched by such a gem of the art powetic-typographic, whicii stimu¬ lates siniultaneously tlie heart's ten- derest emotions, and memories of a red-headed and very profane olfice foreman, tlie offlce pie pile and well- soused proof-reader? Alas, that a power should ever be made such a go-at. F'ortunately powets are gen¬ tle persons and so different from authors wlio write letters to the edi¬ tor. Oid Pro Bono Publico, for in¬ stance, on linding his compoeitlon thus bitterly maltreated would be minded to seek out the editor and commit mayhem.
The Nassau Democrats must be classified as Cave Dwellers and nat¬ urally, Iherefore, are unable to dis- tinguish lietween a Pillar of Fire and a Hennessy Headlight. The vote of Naseau in the Democratic State Com¬ mittee can be explained upon this simple hypothesis. Thoughtful ones hope that Chairman Harris can for¬ give and forget as readily as, let us say, a Wllaon Administration. It's a thousand to one shot that if Del. had been consulted, politics in this in¬ stance would have been played strict¬ ly according to Hoyle and not accord¬ ing to the practice followed by Harry. They do things differently In Suffolk, according to the New York World, for no anti-Harris vote is recorded from that county, which, by the way. Is tlie home of former Congressman Lathrop Browu.
If a false statement of the circula¬ tion of a newspaper, sworn to before a notary public, is uot, legally speak¬ ing, perjury, or punishable as such; and, under the present fdrm of the Bourne publicity law, is not penalized at all, what good end Is served by re¬ quiring sworn statements?—Editor and Publisher.
The Government simply likes to hear the publisher swear,
After the Colonel studies the his¬ tory of newspapers in Nassau county sufficiently long he will learn that It needs grease to make presses work smoothly, and what he terms "boiler plate" Is Just as interesting and rev¬ enue producing as a linotype operator, and the publlc Is just as well satis¬ fied. The reading public reads the daily papers when they have a few minutes to spare and look over the local columns of the local paper, but they are too busy to read editorials of more than three lines, and are too careless of. the publlc weal to even glance at the editorial columns, even though they were told that Horace Greely had returned to earth and was writing for the Inquirer. It's a busy world we're living in, Billie, and an ounce of cussin' is more satisfactory than a ton-of warning and advice — "Dizzy" in the Oyster Bay Guardian.
The pernicious hahIt of slugging a good citizen on his own door step and relieving him of his valuables still persists in the big city. There Is a lurking suspicion that Mayor Mit¬ chell has not reformed all the people of his municipality.
It ia an abhorrent thought but no less a fact that the Massachusetts Progressives are going to select their 72 degelates to Chicago at an old- fashioned state convention. This will Insure hand-picked delegates for Colonel Roosevelt as copper-riveted as were ever selected in the good old days of political bosses. The pro¬ ceedings will be perfumed with tlie odor of patriotism by holding them In Faneull Hall which is Boston's cradle of Liberty. Farewell the Pri¬ mary which was to rid us of such autocratic methods—Its failure in moments of great patriotic stress to meet the demands of Its makers U humorous.

The Gazette of Emporia, Kansas, is evidently domiciled In a Democratic county and naturally it frames this indictment of things corporeal and otherwise:
"The average candidate for the av¬ erage county offlce in the average county is an exceedingly cheap screw. In tlie first place he is generaflyflazy: he wants to gel something for noth¬ ing. He koks with lewd, leering eyes upon the saliry as wealth beyond the dreams of avarice: as a sum which he could not earn under any honest circumstances, and he crowds into the county ofllce, through the convention —if there le a convention—or through the primary if there Is a primary, with the eagi>r greed of a pickpocket at a fair. He mak«'.-i a grei'.t blow about his party loyalty, and is for¬ ever trying to put up dinky llttie tricks to trade for votes from the other party—trades that any blockhead out of the asylum ought to know never could be worked. And he relies on voters in his own party to stand hy llim because he is on the party ticket; even though he is an unmitigated Jacka8.s who carries hia stupidity cov¬ ered only by his brass.
"The best things that may be said of the county ticket-—Indeed the only thing to be said for it—is that some¬ times It does develop a man of brains and capacity. We claim that he would have been a bigger man with more brains and more capacity If be hadn't piddled away four years mon¬ keying witli the politics Incident to a county otfice and had instead jumped into life from «ome other place than the courthouse.
"Why can't tlie whole county ticket buslne.ss be dumped out of politics? Why can't three men be electeu at large in every county,serving witliout salary to hire tiie county work done in the open market with as few or as many men as are needed to do tbe work on hand, just as bank directors hire their men? What is the use of complicating political parties wltli a iol of local flshts, whose accuniula- lioiis often pile into state and con¬ gressional and national results and render the Interpretation of elections meaningless or oblique?
"The county candidate is a nui¬ sance to the voters and the county ticket Is a fraud in politics. Isn't It about time that the county candidate quit pestering the people, and the county ticket be relegated to the ash- heap of other human failures where rest the witch-burner, imprisonment for debt, and child criminals? Hasn't tills country got far enough along lu civilization to realize that cheap fake statesmen in the courthouse are little more than tax-eating vampires? Why not hire competent clerks and junk the statesmen?"

If their ofTending occurs In the Lawrence - Woodmere - Cedarhurst section .tbey will be haled before Jus¬ tice Raislg; if between Valley Streeni and Rockviile Centre, Justiee Neu at Lynbrook; if between Rockville Cen¬ tre and Massapequa, Justice Corodon Norton at Freeport. It now rests with th* au»o?nohlHat» to pl«k hl«i apeoding stretch. The District Attorney has taken a hand In the campaign and the determination is strong to bring to book the Villlstas of Nassau's high¬ ways. A brisk Season is anticipated. Strangers within our gates will be wise if they govern themselves ac¬ cordingly.
