Judge Connolly Could
Become to Detroit What
Gayitor* Was to New York
.» .
Judge William F. Connolly as a candi
date for mayor would offer his city, first,
0 fffrfn personality and an example in
well-ordered living.
He would offer his city, next, a giant
Intellect, to meet and solve its multi
tudinous problems.
He would offer his city, next, an execu
tive ability that is widely recognized, for
the efficient organization of its depart
ments end its forces.
But to successfully bid for the city's
Snt office, he would have to offer it more.
He would have to promise the people
0C Detroit end convince the people of
DeMt of the sincerity of his promise
that if mayor he would ENFORCE THE
l#4W.
Judge Connolly's candidacy, fully ex
pected, cornea at a time when his service
to Detroit could be what Gaynor’s service
wee to New York.
The situation in New York when the
people turned to Gaynor was not unlike
the eituation we have in Detroit today.
The government of Detroit is a ma
chine government, hopelessly removed
from the hands of the people.
Under Judge Connolly, without a
doubt, it would still be a machine gov
erament, but more responsive to the ma
jority sentiment, t
There isn't e bit of doubt about tha
Majority sentiment in the Detroit of to
day being liberal.
The history of recent elections in De
troit proves it
Under Judge Connolly we would expect
Detroit to continue to be a liberal city,
but what the people would want to hear
from him would be that Detroit would
not remain CRIMINALLY LIBERAL,
AS IT IS TODAY.
No man about town need be told what
the conditions are in Detroit.
Evtry man about town knows to what
•xtent gambling is carried on.
Every man about town knows that no
Attempt is made to enforce the liquor
lews and that little pretense of observ*
bff liquor laws is necessary on the part
of the saloonkeepers.
Every man around town knows that
organised vice has regained a foothold
that is stronger than it ever was before.
We believe the majority sentiment in
Detroit, liberal as it is, wants these con
ditions changed.
And there is Judge Connolly’s oppor
tunity.
He can promise the people that he will
change them.
All he has to do is to promise the
people that he will ENFORCE THE
LAW.
No man in Detroit knows better than
he what the law is.
No man in Detroit has had a better
opportunity than he to become familiar
With the consequences of lawbreaking
gal toleration of law breaking.
Was the big Caynor advantage
4le Clipped into the office of mayor of
New York with a knowledge of the in
side workings of his city possessed by
few men not a part of the workings—he
had the experience on the bench, where
he had been duly observing, to help him
to this knowledge.
Judge Connolly is a politician.
So was Gaynor a politician.
Judge Connolly is a Tammany man in
Michigan.
Judge C.aynor was a Tammany man in
New’ York.
Gaynor cleaned up New \ork, and
made that city its best mayor, notwith
s*anding he wa* a politician and a Tam
many man.
Judge Connolly can clean up Detroit
and make this city its best mayor, not
withstanding he is a politician and a
Tammany man.
Judge Connolly's opportunity lies in
the fact, again, that those of our “citi
zenship” who always refer to theirs and
like to have it referred to as the best,
seem unable to find any among them will
ing to make the sacrifice of a run and a
term in office.
These very good citizens call it “get
ting into politics.”
When one of their number IS induced
to get into politics, he is found so hope
lessly lacking in knowledge of the game
that he is easy meat for the other fel
low.
If there is anybody around here who
knows the game of politics better than
Judge Connolly, he has not yet been dis
covered.
The Times has upon many occasions
paid its respects to the Connolly adroit
ness and finesse as a practical politician
and organization man.
But there is some adroitness and
finesse —and other things—in the Marx
organization.
The Times is cognizant at this time
that the big thing involved in the coming
mayoralty campaign is to find the Marx
machine opposed by somel>ody who can
play at the game of politics and match
the Marx hand.
The Times is cognizant that the big
thing for Detroit to do next fall is to
BEAT Marx.
The Times is cognizant that Marx can
not be beaten under present conditions
in Detroit by any candidate representa
tive of those who hope for conditions
that seem somewhat doubtful this side of
the millennium.
Fire has to be fought with fire.
A machine must be fought with a ma
chine.
If the season finds Judge Connolly in
fighting trim, willing to tackle the job
of cleaning up for us and to lead us in
the direction of. at least, a CLEANER
city, and progressive municipal reforms
for which he has declared upon many
occasions, the stars in their courses would
seem to be fighting for Judge Connolly’s
opportunity and Detroit’s opportunity.

ro*n infected with 'h* modern id**a
that he had be'ter ’ hustle - ’ aa hard
a.* possible before he reaches mid
die ase. because after that he will
tie fit only "to go on tfc,» shelf. ’
And. indeed. In ’he practice of
the bu.«ine-s world he will find
corroborator, for 'his idea
The in-istent cry is for young
men. i>t a man who is 40 upward
i be unfortunate enough to lose his
I Job, aril h° usually ha- great diff
iculty tn getting another one.
Thi.«. despite the fart that you*h
is inexper*.enr»d. age experienced
In an employer s ere. the experience
of age i» more than off-et by a loss

Therefore the demand of the
ployers is for the man who is young
All tbi- seems re;i.-on%b> enough.
It cannot be denied 'hat. in ’he nat

some loss in efficiency.
Muscular vigor decreases, the eye
loses something of i's keennes*. ar
'enai and oth«»r weaknesses develop,
with damage to the mental as well
a- to the physical powers
Put this by no means tells the
whole story.
If it were a ease merely of Im
pairment by natural process, youth
would by no means posse** t.h* ad
vantage It today enjoys over middle
age.
The truth Is that many m*n- nay.
most men—hasten and aegrava’e the
natural loss in effiriency by faulty
modes of living while they still are
young.
It is for this reason tha* I ad
dress myself particularly to young
men.
I want every young man who
rea ia 'h*-* llr.ee to get firmly fixed
.n :» mind the truth tha’, by living
widely before 40, he can postpone
.".de“n'*ely »he evil day when he
req/v will he fl» only »o go on the

The Part of the Coward?
2 O the Editor of The ri’ttea;
The way that i look at your edi
torial of July n. helping the suffer
ers of Mexico, if the rnifed States
would flood that country with pro
visions and fill it so nhylock* could
not gobble it up. it would be a
greater preparation for peace than
the biggest 25 fighting ships that
could be built.
We have had Mexico down and
have been asking her to strike back
when they knew all of the time that
even an attempt meant ruin It Is
cowardly to strike one after he is
down
Mr. Editor, you are right. It is
bravery to offer yotir hand to one
that is already down, and assist him
to his feet. You have made a big
I-ap in the right direction.

A Word for Teddy.
Has Collier's Weekly gone back
on Roosevelt? It contains a cartoon
this week showing him chloroform
ing the Bull Moose. I don’t think
that’s fair, nor will I accept as true
its suggestion, until Roosevelt ren
ders more characteristic support of
Hughes than he has yet voiced. The
colonel is s fighter, not a strategist.
He was oct atrategl*M at Chicago.
It was like a tragedian essaying
comedy. He got himself into an In
extrlcahle position by his virulence
against Wilson and had to eat crow.
Bo It is that he Is now somewhat
absurd in the role of captive chained
to the conqueror's car. And It Is
possible be may take another leaf
from Rrvan’s book and do to Hughes
what the Nebraskan did to Alton B.
ParTcer In 1904. Whatever one mav
think of Roosevelt’s policies he la
not dead until he's buried. His sur
render to the Inevitable has been
pitiable, so far as we can now see,
but he Is a very much alive human
being, and he may yet wring vindi
cation and a triumph from untoward
circumstance A %ay not to do this
would he to accept a United States
senatorshlp from New York. If ha
take* anything for hlmaeif It will
seem as If he betrayed his follow
era Those of us who are fond of
Roosevelt, but could not vote for
him. cannot bring ouraelvea to be
lleve that lie Is capable of such
treason He haa been humbled. We
hope he will not humiliate himself.
It is grievous to see Collier’s turn
ing upon him.—Reedy’s Mirror.

•V OR. FRANK CRANE
(Copyright 1918. by Frank Crana)
My Dear Friend—l have been out to
pasture in a library. You know Harding
ton a books. Well, I have been alone
with them for three days; the family all
had to go away, and I insisted on stop
ping here, as I was thirsty for solitude,
which sometimes gets to be a very
drunkards thirst in me; nobody has
been around but the servants, and so I
have browsed hours long among books.
As you read, there are certain sen
tences, phrases, sometimes single words,
that leap out to you and kiss you, as if
your own dear children from among a
troop. I have set some of these down,
and am sending them to you. a handful
of spirit-jewels I have found——l hope
they will not seem pebbles to you. Here
goesl
Rossetti's Saint Agnes: “I could not
well see her features; but I made sure
she was very beautiful, from her tran
quil body, and the way that she held her
hands/’ How much of human loveliness
is elsewhere than in the face!
The same: "Her beauty seemed to
grow on my sight by gazing, as stars do
in water.”
The same: "Some lives of men are aa
the sea is. continually vexed and tram
pled with winds. Others are, as it were,
left on the l>each.” \
T. B. Mosher’s Introduction to Ver
laine’s Lyrics: "For whether we con
sider Catullus, or Villon of the fifteenth
or Baudelaire of the nineteenth century,
maimed lives and lost souls though they
be, their imperishable gift alone con
cerns us.” A good theme to think on:
what we owe to lost souls.
Verlaine:
"The lees of all things human!
I hate the pretty woman,
The facile rhyme, and eke the prudent
friend.”
In Browning’s “Epistle of Karshish” I
find a very subtle and exquisite picture
of Jesus: "So, through the thunder
comes a human voice.”
Michael Angelo: "So near to death,
so far away from God.”
Walter Pater: "A certain strange
ness, something of the blossoming of th*
aloe, is an element in all true works of
art.”
The same: “Tasting the sunless
pleasures of weary people.”
Rosamund Watson: “Give us dark
ness for anguished eyes, stillness for
weary feet, silence and sleep, but no
heaven of glittering, loud unrest.”
The same (noting how memory is
often sharper than experience):
"I knew not then,
And yet remember all these things
were so,
Even as old music, heeded not, we
know,
What time it sounds again.”
George Meredith: "Toss your heart
up with the lark.”
R. L. Stevenson: The sun and the
moon do not speak to us as the stars.
"The stars alone, cheerful whisperers,
confer quietly with each of us like
friends; and by their double scale, so
small to the eye, so vast to the imagina
tion, they keep before the mind the
double character of man’s nature and
fate.”
The same: “It is ourselves we cannot
forgive, when we deny forgiveness to
others.”
The same: “Oh, what a pit there is
for sins—God’s mercy, man’s oblivion!”
Beaudelaire:
"The lover you shall never know,
The place where you shall never b«.”
The same: “Life is a hospital in
which every patient is possessed with the
desire of changing his bed. One would
prefer to suffer near the fire, and an
other is certain that he would get well
if he were over there by the window.”
Arthur Symons: "Pain gnaws at my
heart like a rat that gnaws a beam.”
Bacon: “There is nothing makes men
suspect more than to know Utile; there
fore men should remove suspicion by
procuring to know more, and not by
keeping their suspicions in smother.”
So. my friend, as ladies like to show
their purchases at shopping, and biblio
philes to parade their rare volumes, and
children to dispiay the gay shells they
have picked up on the shore, I exhibit to
you these nuggets of beauty I found in
the library.
FEET THAT DIDN'T FIT THE STYLE.
"Thene nhoe* are 100 narrow and too pointed.’’
