New York, a U'.s State, Spenilrt Its
Money Freely.
In the year 1010 the Stale or New
York, with a gross funded debt of
SfZW, 110,000, had receipts of .?.(), 158,
0:i:t.S.", or $7.10 per cjipita, according
to tlie estimated population. It ex
pended In that .xear .7S,!)ll,:ti:i.0t, or
:X per capita.
Tlie-e are great slims, even in a day
of Liberty Loans running Into billions
of dollars. The growth of Slate ex
penditure has been rapid in recent
years. Tlie total has practically dou
iiled since 1001). It is going higher all
the time. The days of small expendi
tures for State (!ox eminent are far
behind u, lint tlie amounts disbursed
at one time seem absurd now, though
they did not seem small to the tax
payers xvho paid tlie bills.
Comptroller Tp.avis has been turn
ing the pages of old ledgers. lp to
1S7.'i the salaries paid by the State
were meagre; they are not generally
munillcent to-day. Creation of new
ollices, not overpayment of Job holders,
has made the payroll large. Up to
1S7I the pay of members f the Legis
lature xvas S.'tOO a year, xvith 10 cents
mileage. The preseiit schedule xvas
adopted in that year.
In J7S! the judiciary cost tlie Stutc
ST.oSK). or less than the salary of one
Justice of tlie Supreme Court noxx
In IS II! the courts cost more than
the legMnttxe And ailmlnWtratlve
ollices. In 1!)1!) the exiionses of tlie f
Judiciary were SJ,0'J!),701. j
The llrt State commission xvas ere-1
ated in 1S7'J and cost ?1.000. I!y ISStlj
there were twenty-two commissions I
xvith expenses of ?!7."i,llS. In 15)1-1. ;
the Comptroller tells us, "expendi-j

risen o S2-J.3O0. The State Itoard of
Health was established In 1S00, ami
heulth appropriations for last, year
reached $1,110,000,
From 1700 to 1825 only $000,000
was appropriated by the Stato for
education. The tlrst exiKMitllturo for
common schools was mailt! In 1705 and
amounted to ?50,000. line hundred
million dollars was spent for wliools
last year, the State contrlbutliiK $11,-
tr.'S.Ooo of this sum.
Agriculture cot little from the Statei
until the Department of Agriculture
was set up In 1SSI. Since then ex
penditures under this head havu In
creased vi'ldly, lust j par's being

The Slate, built Us first pr(son In
170(1 at a cost of .."ia.OOO. Seven
others have been built since then. In
1S7!) the Institutions were self-sup-(
porting. Until 1810 no systematic way j
of caring for the poor and Insane was;
adopted. In 1S03 Ihe Slate Hoard of
Charities xvas organized. Last year
the charitable Institutions cost the
State 5I,0!K),(!.'0. The State Commis
sion In Lunacy xvas created In 1SS5),
and In a few years care of the Insane
became an exclusive State function.
Its cost lias risen from 91,010,000
originally to $11, .100.000 last year.
Only In ISPS did expenditure of
Slate money upon highway building
ami maintenance begin. I'p to the
present time practically SUM, 000,000
has been spent. A century ago the
Stale encouraged turnpike building by
permitting tolls to he charged. To
day we have a few toll bridges, but
practically the roads and bridges are
free of direct charges.
It costs u lot of money to run N'exv
York State, hut it is a big Slate, and
Its people want things done In a big
xvny. A little waste will make them
complain, but xve have never heard
them protest against any honest and
proper expense of government, no
mutter how large It xvas.

Iiifantfi' Cries and Street Noises.
City noises, and the familiar occu
pational appeals of Itinerant .street
iip'rchimN have been tlie occasion of
long enduring protests, letters to
newspapers mid even municipal ordi
nances fearsome alike in language
and threat of puhMinipn;. Few of
the enact inetits are rigorously en
forced. The old clothes man, theped
ler of fruits and (lowers, the scissors
grinder still ply their trades In resi
dential districts unrclmked by ner
vous citizen or phlegmatic cop.
There are persons, however, xvho
look upon those characteristic urimn
cries as atmospheric touches and Iiml
hi them reminiscences 0f the varied
arts. An opera lover may reran 1
through them that appealing "early
morning scene In Cliarpentl.er's "I111

the charming series of studies ot
(ieorglan street life In the Ilrltlsh
metropolis. A man xvith a taste for
mechanics used such city noises ns a
street car bumping over a switch, the
pumping of its nlr brakes, the charac
teristic noises of an automobile nnd
a chain driven motor truck to point
an argument that the world of stone
and asphalt has sounds quite as mys
terious to the uninitiated us those of
forest and stream.
lSut the street xender has at last
aroused an enemy likely to prove to
be his undoing. The ladles of the
Philadelphia City Club have discov
ered that the (Jil.lkertoxvn babies no
longer begin vocalizing xvith the fa
miliar gurgles and cries of Infancy
but are Imitating the pedlers. The
shocking disvoxery has been made
that (he first word Philadelphia ba
bies learn Is "rags." While this word
Is more deilnlte than the more con
ventional "goo goes" of Infancy Its
utterance emmet be considered as an
evldenrr- of cultural decline on the
part of Philadelphia's babies. In
deed "rags" ore a very frequent topic
of discussion by women the world
over. And who knows but that the
Philadelphia babies hnvc heard echoes
of 'he fashionable topic of the eco
nomic tidvnntagps if wearing ibl
clothes''

on this Imitative Instinct, the only!
recourse must bo to counteract the
peiller's cries by n course of music
such as that heard in "Louise" or In
the prelude to the last act of 'Tosca."
If music can soothe the kiviiko breast

The amazing growth of population
In Detroit since 1910 directs attention
not only lo the mobility of the popula
tion, achieved by modern instruments
of transportation, but lias an interest
as it illustrates the adaptability of the
country tp meet nexv conditions. In
'en years tlie automobile metropolis
has added more than half a million
inhabitants to its 1910 total of IGo.000, !
and the means of sustaining them had 1
to be provided as they came to the city. !
Tlie capacity of the highways, the ter-;
mlr.nl facilities of the railroads tho ,

town-ail these things had to be1
adapted to meet tlie new demands.

of nodern society from the example

"His opposition to those dangerous

well kiinxvn. In a comparatively recent
speech in the Senate he said: 'Wo are

of the rule of physical force in chasing

A message from Iindoii to tho In

that tho White Star liner Olympic, trans
formed into tho largest oil hurnlnn
steamship, xvlll rail this week from
Southampton nnd Cherbourg for till
port xvith all cabins (Hied and xvitli many
luxurious Improvements in tier public
npaitments and etaterooms. Her out
xvard appearance Is unchanged, but In
ternally she xvlll not be recognized by
1 old time englnecra xvho visited hei
stokeholds In pre-war days. The selee
linn of oil fuel for llio great liner was
nude after exhaustive tests and follows
the practice of tho American and other
fjreat navies of tho world. Mute than
I.otiO xx'urkmen have been engaged for
several months In tlie mighty tnsk of
converting her 1S5 furnaces for the use
of oil fuel and installing the special
machinery necessary.
The fuel carrying c'lparlly of the
Olympic xvlll be about BO.ono barrels,
which will be stowed In tlie cellular
eompai Intents between Hie ship's double
boltoms. It Is estimated that she xvlll
icqulre on each, trip about 2.1,000 bar
rels, tho quantity varying cllghtly ac
oot ding to the speed. Tho use of oil xxill
eliminate all delays heretofore caused
by bad xvcatlier and other unusual con
ditions, such as strikes of mine work
ers frequently Intel fering xvith coat
loading, and xvlll glvo greater comfort
to passengers because of the absence
of coal dust and cinders on tlie decks.
The oil Is blown In 11 lino spray under
each furnace and an ex-en speed can be
more readily maintained than Is pos
sible In a coal burning ship: also, there
are no furnaces to clenn out, nnd the
system Is much more economical than
tlie old one
The Olympic, which has been out 01

for suggestions about placing the fiov

to two appropriating committees. After
discussing the dlllleulties xvhlch this
and other defects created In the present
system. Mr. Hoosevelt summarized bis
recommendations as folloxvs:
"Create a true budget system, not
Ihe small beginning already attempted.
"Consolidate the appropriations In
one general committee xvith sub-committees
to deal with the separata subjects.
"Put into laiv the general principles
recommended by tho reclassification

authorization of adi quale salaries to
Government employres.
"Invite a confennce xvith the execu
tlxe branch of the Government looking
to a reclasslllcatlon and redistribution
of tlie work of the departments.
"lilve by law greater -authority to
the heads of the executive departments
In conducting their executlvo business,
at the same time holding these heads
more directly responsible for tlie suc
