PARTISAN RESPONSIBILITIES IN AM democracy apathy of the minority paily is a distinct inde of serious polit pelit 0 nl ilecay The only American President v he ever profoundly mistrusted the gcncrnl principle of partisanship in a republic was the first of the line. And before his exit from of fice even Washington was fervently a Fed eralist, convinced that the faction in which events hnd placed him was alone capable of guiding the national destinies. Such devoted simplicity of belief can be called narrow. Frem the standpoint of abstract logic It Is perhaps indefensible. Hut republics are net conducted en a basis of syllogisms. Like the drama, democracies nrc iipte wither without a sturdy conflict of wills, and It Is a demonstrable fact the clash of evenly balanced parties Is a potent safe-guard against abuse of the powers of repi esentatl ve gev eminent Fer this reason, anil entirely apart from the merits or demerits of the policies which the two great parties indorse, there is a sign et returning political health in the news of a change in the chairmanship of the Deinee-ratic- National Committee. Since the presidential election one year age last Tuesday, the Democratic Party has presented a dull and llaci id spe, tacle. ' Net only has it lacked leadership, but much confusion concerning principles has pre vailed The chairmanship of (ieeige- White, suc cessor te the able and energetic Hemer S. ('tiinniings, has been uninspiring for ether reasons than its failuie te crown an election with victory. Mr. White has been pre siding dismally ever n seem- of wteckage.

The public Is infalliblv the gainer when the partisan rlvuiiy is keen The closer the parties aie mulched, the mere scrupulously and intel ligently are popular interests protected.

Matthew Vassar and His Millions. An Old-Scheel Senater Hy GEORGE NOX McCAIN DIRECTOR CORTEIA'OU, in his nppeal Ie Council for li'O mere policemen. Is, I think, tee modest In his presentation of the situation ln this city. Special Police Commissioner Barclay Warburlen has made a survey, and it shows that there Is, as already pointed out, ap proximately one patrolman nt night for every .",000 dwellings. One policeman In the Gcrmnntewn nnd Chestnut Hill elistrict has a beat that covers ever twelve square miles. Small cities in Pennsylvania put Phila delphia te shame in the matter of pelice pro tection for their citizens. T'nlonfewn is the best policed little city ln the State It hns a policeman for every cSTtl Inhabitants. I'p In Wilkes-Hnrre, n conl-rcglen town, rcnieinlier. there Is a cop for every S70 residents The gient outstanding fact vjhlch citi zens fail te reilize and which Council fnlls tn grasp Is that the Increase In automobile travel has been se recent and se grent that hundreds of pellceinrn are needed new te guard crossing Instead of patrolling beats. The safety of the citizen is safeguarded In one direction nnel weakened In another. Thorp Is ilnperative need for mere police men and they will est money, tee. COFNCll.MAN VON TAGEN is grently Interested both In the police Increase and the auto-parking situation in the heart of the city.

Thev are husiuess men, .Facilities for getting Inte the eity. evept bv auto, ate limited itnce in the citv Hie nine blues must be paiked somewhi'ie nearby Common-sense methods in hnndlliig down town Ira Hie would, he says, clarify the travel tangle. On every main read leneling Inte the city from north, south or west a great sign should be displayed at the city line. It should warn strangers of traffic laws and instruct them te ebtnln a copy of the rules from a policeman, or at a designated point, for their guidance. Copies of the police nute regulations should he printed by the thousand. Every unto owner should hnve one. The Stutc Department of Highways In In ceoses n copy of the State read laws with every driver's license sent out from Hnr risburg. In the interest of a foolish economy Council would doubtless veto any suggestion for signs or printed rules. They would cost money '.
