A meeting was held Albany en September 5 to give emergency elfi to 1319 Cast expiring Democracy, and on September IS committee Issues en address saying "IBs time Is short in which to act, but much easy be Cone In a short The committee believes tfcat the shorter the time for action, the better, since It consumed twelve days Sn getting: out a call to arms and allows only sstsb for ths flgtt.

The committee suggests the story of the teacher In the medical eMtssfw ytta told his student that If he were gfIBDaWSSd to a man with a severed artery sjsjoli certainly bleed to death In two minutes If be should use one minute In cool and making up his mind exactly srfcst to do. The only trouble with the committee Is that while It Is leisurely and cool. It doesn't yet seem to know exactly what to do. Tbe sf tsment Is well enough in its way. It sjssjsjsjsja some truth, most of which could hare been put forth Just as well on the day of the original meeting, or, for that leaner, at any three months.

It suggests a despsirtaaT protest core than a hopeful political xnorement. "Fellow Democrats, axe doing your duty? Are you speaking "out frEnkly and boldly? Are you trying the weak, hearten the ngnt the traitors?" Such Questions were hardly needed. TLe breath given to them might better bare been expended long ago on work where It would count. Obviously their fellow Democrats are not trying to strengthen the weak, but make terms with the strong. They are so thoroughly discouraged Qiftr.selvea that they want not to hearten, but to iw Ltr.itened.

and Hearst Is heartening them grnrrously. They have no fear of a traitor who bearing gifts and offering a prospect of which no amount of the now prsscbea to them eeerued to bring. Having Jet Hearst capture a large number of country delegations, the committee now calls oa Democrats. to see their delegates to the BcTfalo convestloa, or, "it you can't see them, them." Ar.g st ell events tell them what yen of them! An exceedingly sound is mads against fusion, since fusion a of principles for the sake of temporary eaccess. Unfortunately, howerer, tits foUow Democrats are a great deal more concerned over temporary success than ctct principles.

An even more Impressive werzlrg is given against allowing the Demooracy to be "annexed by a movement originated for the personal exploiting of one man." nnd tie delegates are rescinded that xrany of their instructions were given on the exposes pledge chct the Independence not a full ticket aad are, thereforf, no longer bind- Ins. AJtoseihcr It is magnificent, bat It is scarcely war. The war bat been already made, so far as the country districts ars concerned. There was not light enough In the conservative leaders when would have availed, or virtue enough in the Democratic masses to resist the Hearst temptation. Just as the conservatives were Issuing their soul ctlrrinc manifesto an I anti-Hearst convention, called to send a coni testing- delegation from County, where I Hearst bad won in a "snap" convention, was captured by Hearst and the "snap" delegates received a new commission.

Much as we sympathize with those who are so deeply concerned for the virtue of the Democratic party, we fear that they will not win control of the Buffalo convention by their appeal or by anything else in the rural counties. They must look to New York and its bosses. THE REPUBLIC AX PRIMARIES. The Republican voters of New York and Kings counties nave emphatically etpresiwl their determination to support President Roosevelt and Governor Higglns and to maintain the policy of clean patty management. The primaries in New Tork County have resulted in a derisive victory for Mr.

Parsous. which insures bin re-election as president of the county committee and the sending of delegates to the state convention a majority of whom will be favorable to the reorganization of the party machinery of the state la harmony with reform sentiment. Mr. guigc not only lost his Assembly district, but even hit own election district, and several of the district leaden devoted to his Interests whom he fully expected to carry through have been badly beaten. The victory of Mr.

Parsons is really more decisive than tho bare figures of the results in Assembly would indicate, for Mr. Parsons has won in many of the dUtr. having a large Republican vote, while Mr. strength Is chiefly in downtown Di-mocratlo districts, with comparatively small weight in Republican conventions. In Kings County Mr.

Woodruff has been equally successful in his contest with Mr. Dady. vote fully justifies the confidence which The Tribune has felt In the virtue of the rank and file of the Republican party and their readiness to stand for the right when the issue was made clear to them. It Is evident that politicians who thought that the moral uprising of last year had spent its force were badly mistaken. The Republican party is not to be used for the restoration of the lobby, but to carry on completion the good work so well begun under the leadership of the President and the Governor.

The party approaches the campaign with brightened prospects, and this fact must rejoice not inly Republicans, but also citizens regardless of party who are concerned to save the state from the threaten of radicalism. WATER SUPPLY PROGRESS. The showing of progress made by the Board of Water Supply la highly encouraging. There has of late been much talk, which we have all along assumed and now know to be unfounded, about that board's extravagance and inefficiency, the insuperable obstacles It was meetlxxg and tlie desirability of abolishing or reorganizing It and seeking new sources and systems of water supply. This talk has arUen from chronic faultfinders or selfishly Interested or grossly misinformed persons.

Tbero are those who always want something to be done different from that which Is being They have hitherto caused much trouble and delay In water supply affairs. But we are Inclined to think their capacity for mischief Is about exhausted. The Board of Water Supply may have committed some errors of judgment, though we do not recall any of serious import What seems 10 be certain Is that the board has proceeded with the work for which It was created with generally sound Judgment, with economy, with energy and with exceptional efficiency. The record of what it has actually accomplished In the rear and a Quarter of Its existence Is really surprising. Had It promised In advance to do so xsueh la that time It would have been criticised for promising more than It could fulfil.

But it Las dove the work. In the face of some lepnl obstacles, and thus entitles Itself to a hearing for Its estimates of further progress. It teems almost "too pood to be true" that New York will pet 0.000.000 gallons a day more water within three years, and In six but the way In which the board Is pushing the work makes even such achievements appear not Impossible. The groat need Is that there shall be no stoppage or disturbance of a work so well begun and proceeding 60 auspiciously. Nearly all the preliminary work has now been done.

A change of plan would sacrifice It. including the million dollars which has been spent upon ft and more than a year of time. It is doubtful if any better plan could have been devised at the outset It Is certain that none could now be found which would be so much better as to make It worth while to sacrifice all that the board has now achieved. The sensible, practical, economical policy will be to keep the work going on as it hi now going, and to facilitate and expedite it In every way. Instead of hindering or embarrassing It.

It is a work of the highest importance to the welfare of the city, and It should bo prosecuted in a spirit showing serious realization of that fact TUE TYPHOON AT HOVO KOXQ. At least three storms have been observed on the Atlantic in the last few weeks which seem to have in or near the West Indies and which exhibited the characteristics of a tropical hurricane. The first disturbance of that class which has done serious harm In tbe Orient has Just visited the coast of Ch tn apparently without giving the lightest warning of Its approach. Its worst effects were felt In the har- Ut of Hong Kong, which lies between the island of that name and a high rocky peninsula to the northward. Victoria, the chief city, and the smaller settlements on the Island contain fully three hundred thousand inhabitants.

In the Chinese Empire there are a dozen larger centres of population than this, but few ritfal It in the their business Interests. Bssjg are commercial almost y. ami. though the share of trade If with Great Britain, the port is visited by the shipping of ell the maritime nations of the world. The txtt-Et of the damage done by the storm, which lasted about two hours, is Imperfectly known as yet.

but several steamers nave been wrecked, either from on ths rocks that HLe the harbor or from foundering In their berths Tlie port is admirably sheltered from ordinary gales, but in a true typhoon the velocity of the wind often rises to one hundred miles sn Uuder such circumstances complete protection from its fury is Impossible, It Is not unlikely, too. that many buildings on land have been Injured. Though the Msjsl is high snd pocky, IbSM was an opportunity for sn invasion by The the bjsjaf, sjrbsss many of the bouses were SftasjoSi. In this reopect Hong Kong suffered much as Galveston did a few years ago. Tbe site of the great seaport of Texas is a low sandbar, to which tbe waters of the Gulf of Mexico could once gain access with ease.

Through tbe 00-operatlon of the local and federal authorities it Is now guarded by a stout sea wall. Whatever loss of life occurred at Hong Kong whether it be only one hundred or firs resulted in part from marine accidents.

Aoon. XEW-YOKIV DAILY TRIBUXE.

WEDNESDAY. SEPTOfBER 19. 190G number of deaths, however, was caused by drowning, a Udai wave having pone far enough into the city to reach the counting rooms of tha merchants. The destruction wrought by a hurricane, varying, of course, on ths fury of the storm. depends chiefly on the path which it pursues.

A storm of this class Is born at sea, ten or twelve decrees sway from the equator, and at first travels in a nearly westerly direction. The typical route, from which there ia occasionally a deviation, gradual changes of direction to the northwestward, northward and northeastward. Since a tropical storm rarely has a diameter exceeding fifty or a hundred miles it might travel a great distance without overtaking a ship or Impinging on an inhabited coast. It Is possible that the typhoon which struck Hong Kong started from some point In the Pacific Ocean a week ago, passed between Luzon and Formosa a gap of nearly Ml miles even crossed the Chins Sea without being discovered. Wherever It originated, unseen impulses steered It to Hong Kong.

Had it "recurred" outside of the Philippines, Chins, and perhaps Japan, would have remained in Ignorance of its existence. One of the redeeming traits of the tropical cyclone Is the disposition which It shows to abate, if by chance It is diverted from Its normal course and finds Itself well inland. An illustration of peculiarity has Just bean given by a storm of obscure origin that was noticed off the Carolina coast on Monday. The attendant gales did not quite develop full hurricane violence, but the government thought it best to order up danger signals for the benefit of shipping. If the disturbance had followed the Gulf Stream northward apd northeastward, many a mariner would have been thankful for the warning.

Strangely enough, the storm poshed into the interior, first crossing Northern Georgia and then reaching Eastern Tennessee. Barometric indications and rainfall showed that it bad not completely died oat but the subsided sufficiently to render farther anxiety needless. GETTIXO TOGETHER. Some Ingenious attempts are being made to the Importance of Mr. Bryan's declaration In favor of government ownership and operation of the railroads by Democrats wbo shy st what they call policy of paternalism and centralization, but yet are willing to support for the Presidency in 1908 the most consplcuoss and outspoken advocate of that policy.

Tbe Hon. Augustus OctaTiua Bacon, an antipaternallst of the Southern school, recently renominated for Senator by the same state convention In Georgia which unanimously indorsed Mr. Bryan as a Presidential candidate, thinks that there is little need for worrying over the Nebraska statesman's railroad programme. He says be does not understand that Mx. Bryan wants to have the government take over the railroads unless regulation through the agency of a federal commission proves a failure.

But be argues, the Hepburn law cannot be fairly tested In one year or in two years, and government ownership cannot therefore be made an issue in the campaign of 1906. Moreover, Mr. Bacon adds. If the Democratic party does not favor government ownership (as, In opinion, it does cot), the next national convention can simply adopt a resolution expressing In no uncertain terms Its opposition to such venture into the tleld of state socialism. Tlds is in Itself a straightforward and creditable suggestion.

But it leaves one important factor out of the reckoning. The Democratic party has had one painful experience trying to write its own views Into platform on which Mr. Bryan was to stand for the Presidency. There is little doubt that a majority of the delegates at Kansas City In 1000 would gladly have thrown the free silver coinage issue overboard. Rut Mr.

Bryan "wouldn't let them." He wrote the money plank himself In Lincoln and told the managers at Kansas City that If they wanted him as a Presidential nominee they would have to reaffirm unshaken loyalty to the 50-cent standard. Democratic conventions all over ths country are Indorsing Mr. Bryan. Even since his Madison Square Garden speech five Georgia, Delaware, California, Colorado and have pledged him their support in If the next convention meets with no other candidate In sight will it feel disposed to repeat the Kansas City experiment? Will it not gracefully accept the logic of the situation and silently swallsw its scruples against "centralization and We think that the Democratic antt-paternsllsts now planning to write an anti-government ownership plank into the next national platform could learn otnething in diplomacy from Colonel Henry Watterson. The colonel la as ardent a foe of centralization as draws breath anywhere south of the Potomac and the Ohio.

But he has been in politics too long to clash uselessly with the logic of any given situation. Mr. Bryan, he admits, is to be tbe leader in 1908, and with a leader one cannot wrestle over trifling differences In opinion. Colonel Watterson can see in government ownership of the only the crash of our constitutional temple and the dissolution of the Republic. Yet he tries to be resigned and openininded.

He will not start dissensions. -One of the things I have learned," ho said in introducing Mr. Bryan st Louisville recently, "baa been to look "more to the objective point and less to great occasions to send all "minor differences to the rear the better to "march against the common enemy." This is a truly philosophic mood and should be commended to disturbed and timid Democratic statesmen. Why worry about Mr. Bryan's purposes or opinions? His heart Is In the right place and "objective point" can be taken on trust.

Trivial details of policy like the operation of tlio nation's transportation facilities should not stand in the way of union and concord within the party. We are glad to see that the question of the regulation of pushcart traffic in the streets of New York, which we discussed a few days ago, is generally receiving the attention which It The traffic is one of great magnitude, but it Is conducted in a most haphazard manner. The pedlers are scattered at random about the city, often much in the way and contributing immeasurably to the confusion of the streets and the congestion of travel, and they seem to have no rights which the police are bound to respect, being arbitrarily ordered about from place to place, apparently without any rule or reason. To even the most casual observer it seems as though their condition might be changed greatly to their own advantage and to the advantage of the public A plan proposed by the Mayor's commission of citizens, which has met with much approval, contemplates a general systematization at least of the distribution of pushcarts. Instead of letting them be massed.

sometlines in unbroken rows of a dozen. in whatever places the pullers it would strictly segregate them and compel them to stand singly. There might be eight aud no more at each Intersection of two streets to wit. one on each leg of each of the four angles, not nearer to the corner than twenty-five feet. That would certainly permit the presence of enough carts at any one corner to satisfy all the demands of trade, and the required distance from the corner would prevent obstruction of the crosswalks.

But we can imagine that such placing of such a number of carts at some Intersections, for exampla at Fulton (treat and Brosdwsy or Chambers street and Broadway, which are In the proposed unrestricted area free to all comers up to the maximum limit of four on each block, might appreciably add to the congestion of Seeing that inch of roadway often needed the surrender of two or three feet of it at each aide of the street would not be commendable. As The Tribune said the- other day, the claims of the pushcart men for a chance to live are probably too strong to be overruled at present. Nevertheless, the Question may well be considered whether the whole pushcart business ought not ultimately to be abolished. It Is based upon an unsound namely, the occupation and use of public property for private gain. It involves an unfair discrimination against other certainly no less worthy dealers In giving the use of the most eligible positions, practically untaxed, for competition with men who with their business occupy bouses on which they have to pay heavy rental or taxes.

It causes, as we have already pointed out. serious congestion. Net Infrequently there Is a complete blockade of Important vehicular traffic on Nassau street on account of an accumulation of pushcarts in that supercongested thoroughfare. Of course, the dry authorities would not permit the erection of permanent stationary booths along the roadway. Why, then, tolerate In the unrestricted area these peripatetic booths, which sre scarcely less in the way, and allow In the restricted area carts to stand all day In one place, bo that they practically amount to stationary booths? Mr.

Bryan. In his speech at Raleigh, accused Secretary Shaw of trying to palm off in that stats "some second-hand clothing he could not get rid of hi lowa." Mr. Bryan, it may bo mentioned, does not dispose of his old clothes in that way. His once much admired suit of "16 to for example, he has carefully laid aside in a mothproof bag ready for use In ease the weather or his necessities furnish an occasion. Mr.

Winston Churchill ought to be able to get out a new edition of "The Crisis" after experience in the convention at Concord yesterday. Mr. J. Henniker-Heaton, in the current number of The Nineteenth Century." makes ar. argument apropos of wireless telegraphy, "that the machinery of tho world's should belong to the state." Mr.

Bryan must look to bis laurels if bs does not wish to find himself in ths rear of the radical procession. The South suffers a serious loss in the death of Dr. Charles D. Mclver. president of tho Stats Normal College, at Greensboro.

Early in bis life as teacher, in association with President Edwin A. Alderman of tho University of Virginia, also a North Carolinian and a graduate of the stats university st Chapel Hill, he made a speaking campaign through the state to behalf of better common schools and higher taxes for education and practically revolutionized the school system of North Carolina. As an orator he was remarkably forceful and humorous, and he waa ta great demand in sll parts et the South for helping on the movement for better educational facilities. He was well known in New York also as one of the leaders of the band of Southern men who are doing so much te lift up the educational Ideal of tho whale country and to make it more practical.
