Beppo Writes From New York, New York, June 26th, 1902 1 202 W. 78th Street. / . Editor Times-Enterprise: I have been in. New York about six weeks, aud tils is.the first opportunity I’ve bad t) write for other than my own publisher. There aie many frieods in Thom* asville to whom Hike to write a general letter, but the one I prize most is the Times itself. 1 never saw New York so stirred up physically and politically as it is at present. The building of the great subway from the City Hall op to Harlem has necessitated the tearing up of many streets, and there are", miles of treuches dug from thirty to forty feet wide and a» many deep. All the way above Twenty»tbird street Manhattan Island is solid rock, aud the blast ing goes oo daily. ^ To protect its enormous population as well as traffic, tbe contractors have to bridge the great' trench its entire length; still accidents happen al most daily. Many lives have been lost up to this time, aud it is fair to assume that before it is finished almost a regiment ~*of men will have been killed, but human lives count nothing against the progress of improvement. It is interesting to watch the work io some places, but far more interesting to watch political events that occur in rapid; succession. One of tbe greatest political failures ever witnessed in Gotham is-the present reform ad ministration. Its failure is not due so much to rascality as it is to incompetency. Mayor Lowe is a cleao man politically^ honest and all that, but throughout the en tire .administration there is an otter lack of executive ability. On the day of thei election that put it in power, Travers Jerome wps the most popular man on the ticket. He is a hot headed, impulsive young mao, of considerable men tal ability, but unfortunately is troubled with what we call “pig beadedness." 8o far he is the worst failure of all 4be officials elected. He chases small evils to tbe great neglect of the large ones. Qiea't crimes have been committed recently that appear -to him as mere incidents. Everybody of all parties seem to have lo»t both con finance iu and respect for him. Even under Groker and Tammany Hall things were 'doue better, and uow there arq thousands of would- be reformers, who deeply regret thnehange of administration. . Croker has undoubtedly with drawn from politics entirely. He is living in Boglan'd in the hope, be says; that they will cease heap ing, abase upon him. Still there are'tbousands who believe that he is directing tbe affairs of Tamma -uy Hall from across the Atlantic, but really i don't believe he is do, ing auvtbiog of the kind. He has made his pile and wants to be left to eojoy it unmolested. It is something he couldnH do oh this Side of the water. Preparations are being made for, the state election next* fall, and the state democrats are trying to get together, aud put up a bold fight. Iu my judgement, there .isn’t tbe ghost of a'cbance ot the democrats wiuning, on account of a lack of harmony. Unfortunate ly the democrats are lacking in tbe wisdom of the republicans who pan quarrel with each other for a year or two, but come together on tbe day of election, and preseot a solid frfint to their political ene mies. - There are many democrats who profess tp see prospects of victory^jn. both state and national elections,-but it is entirely a pes simistic view of the situation, rbere is Undoubtedly a good deal of desseutiou and diesafiisfaction^ iu the ranke of tbe repoblicane, but for all that, they will get to gether in 1904 and sweep tbe field again, no matter who their caudi date may be, not so much ou ac* count of tbe righteousness of their cause as to the d m foolishness of their opponents. Recently there was a great gath ering of earneet democrats to cele brate the opening of the Ttlden Club in this city, at which it was hoped that the key note of har* mony would be sounded that would have the effect of solidfy ug the old party of Jefferson* victory; but all over the country, particularly Id the south and wesV a bowl of disseDt came op from populists and popocrats, denounc ing Cleveland, . Hill and every thing they said. Bryan let oat a blast in which he spoke of Cleve land as “a former democrat,** and while bo howled the populists iir Nebraska were nominating him for governor. Such an exhibition of cheek and gall has never been excelled in ibis country. It’s enongh to make the gorge rise from the stomach of the bnrly keeper of a lunatic asylum, for such evidence of lunacy has never before been exhibited .anywhere. It's difficult to see how real true- blue democrats can support any than or platform that is endorsed by such a political menagerie as the populists have organized. I have always thought for myself, and oast my vote for what I be lieved was tbe true Jeffersonian doctrine of political government; but when I seethe populists shout ing and yoting for so-called Dem ocratic candidates and platforms, I distrust my own judgment. If the devil joins the church aod marches under the cross, I lose en tirely my hope of salvation, and take to the woods for safety. Beppo. A Memorial and Resolution of Ooh- lockonee Lodge No. H7.

Washington, Jane 26.’—At eight o'clock tonight, at tbe end of a nine hour session and ol a debate lasting night and day fo^a week, the house passed the Philippine civi) government bill practically as it came from the committee. It was a party vote, 141 to 97, with the exception of Mr. McCall, of filassachosetts, who voted with the democrats. The minority substi tute for the establishment of a temporary government in the islands, and their permanent in dependence as soon as a stable government could be established, was defeated 95 $o 136. Mr. Patterson, democrat, of Tennessee, offered an amendment prohibiting slavery or involuntary servitude iix tbe Philippines or any other territory over which the United 8tates should obtain juris diction. He said that the United 8tates was the only civilized power in the world which protected slav ery. Gov. Taft before the insular committee testified that the treaty made by Gen. Bates and the Sul tan of Jolo, which recognized slavery was still in force. There were today 300,000 slaves in tbe Jolo group.

London, June 27.—“It's the best yet," was the popular com ment with which was greeted tbe bulletin posted at Buckingham Palace at 11 o'clock tonight. London, June 28.—The Daily Mail this morning says that all King Edward's functions are working admirably. The dratn- age pipe has notye^been removed, says the paper, but the King's general progress is very sore and steady. His diet already ioclodes soup, fish and baked apples. It is probable that next week''Qiejnum ber t of dally bulletins win be di minished. The unanimity among promi nent physicians in expressing their opinions as to the case of the King is quite remarkable. All the professional opinions gathered are distinctly favorable and hopeful; the doctors regard the danger of peritonitisVs ndw almost past, and believe bis majesty's recovery to be entirely probable.
