The appointment of Prof. j. E. Hilgard to the
position of Superintendent of the Coast and Geo
oetic Survey, was announced in yesterdays STAR.
This appointment is one that meets universal ap-
prevail amongst those who have a knowledge of
the requirements OF this responsible position. Mr..
Hlgard entered the service of which he is now ap-
pointed the chief In 1915, at the age of twenty and
after seventeen years service In all branches OF
s1B work, none of which he touched without leav-
sAg the mark OF his genius, he was at the out
eEeak OF the war appointed to the responsible po-
a4saon OF chief OF the Office In Washington, which
he has held until now. The high reputation which
Ne has since achieved among the men OF science
rtAe civil engineers and the maritime men, both at
Hhene and abroad, is attested by the universal as
can't with which his appointment to the existing
vacancy has been called for. No litter occasion
eosuld be found to vindicate the principles Of a
0nnd civil service than is offered by this case and
Ne congratulate the government and the country
that this fact has been recognized All the more
must we be surprised that while the whole CORDS
on omcerS OF the Coast Survey, almost without
se1oeptiOn while the leading scientific bodies the
universities, the most eminent engineers public
Ren OF the highest standing from all parts of the
union, the commercial and shipping associations
- the principal ports, the most prominent officers
- the navy, have united In recommending Prof
EHgard, his appointment should have been an
Agonl1ed BY clique Of officers OF the army In
1aSor OF one OF their own corps. Themselves en-
s3eyfng the advantage of promotion by seniority.
without regard to eminent service,-a system
which, however necessary to the purely military
service, Is deadening to that competition and de-
sare to excel, through which all progress In engi-
1eerinS Is made,-they have been unwilling to
grant to civilian the promotion which, on the
ground Of long efficient service and grade, he was
rent1tled to, even IL on no other grounds and have
sought to obtain the place for one of their own
number, whose retirement from the corps would
make desirable vacancy in the rank of ueuten-
sant-eolonels and give step to many. 1t appears
I'D De time that definite shape be given to the
plan frequently mooted OF establishing depart
ment OF public work In which the skill and science
or civil engineering could compete ON equal terms
with That OF the now privileged class OF military

Better Investigate openly.


-he Treasury contingent fund investigating
reanmittee have resisted all arguments
sGn appeals In behalf Of an open
.ABsestigation, and have apparently determined
10 tmaintain strict secreSy as to all pro-
aoeoaingS They state, however, that ultimately
11l1he testimony will be printed and given to the
Dn11bc. The committees chief reason for q secret
nvsstigation Is said be their desire to prevent
injury to the character OF any person by er pdrte
testimony. II any witness testifes to that which
duplicates any person, great or small, in the al
legged crooked transactions, which the committee
ARe inquiring into, the latter want to have that
1oGamony substantiated or disproved, or, in other
words, have the case made up when 1t goes to the
1nOiic. The motive Of the committee Is . good
Ae, but 1t Is questionable IL they are proceeding
snpon a wise plan. Should there be witnesses, or
sSven one witness, called before the committee,
who maliciOusy desires to reflect upon some per-
son, by cOloring his testimony that witness will not
he scrupulOuS about cOncealng his testimony from
the press He Is more likely to take pains to let
the papers get hold Of such OF his testimony as the
committee are anxious to keep secret Besides
this 1t Is almost impossible to conduct an invest
CATION here In Washington, where there are 80
many energetic reporters, with entire secrecy.
Whatever IS brought out by the committee OF q
damaging character Is quite likely to leak out
through some channel, and the chances are that it
will reach the public In an exaggerated or dis
Ftcrted form. The American public Is an intelle-
gent jury, anu is able to separate the truth
from falsehood when all of q case Is clearly
placed before 1t. Take, for example, the Potter
committee. Public characters were assailed there
daaaiy by witnesses, and partisanship exhausted
every means to sustain the charges and allega-
stions; but even before the committee had submit
led It's report the evidence adduced had been care
1uily weighed by the reading public, and those
'ssho had been unJustly or falsely accused were ex
aOmerated The contingent fund investigating
committee may discover that they would have
better prevented unjust asperson Of character by
permitting all their proceedings to go to the peo-
pie through the daily papers than by closing the
doors and giving opportunity for misrepresenta-
ton and exaggeration to leak through the key
hole.

Calamity is the name Of man
who lives ut the gold camp Of
CummIns City. he has another
name, but nobody seems to know
what it is. II has been torn off
the wrapper some way, aud so the
boys call him Calamity.
Last spring he had little do
mestic trouble, and his wife made
com plants that Calamity had
worn out an old, long rand ed
shovel on her, try Ing to convincs
her about some abstruse theory of
his.
The testimony seemed rather
against Calamity, and the miners
told him that, ss soon as they got
over the rush q little and had the
leisure, they would have to hang
him.
One evening, after the work of
the day was done and the boys had
eaten their suppers, one Of them
suggested that it would be q good
time to hang Calamity. So they
got things In shape and went down
to the Big Laramie bridge.
Calamity was with them. They
got things ready for the exercises
