Defrccs should do, and what he ought to be
made to do, is to allow their regular wages
to those employees in the Printing Office
who work by the week, and what is called
standing time" to those who work by the
piece, for every day of idlcness enforced by
his closing of the establishment in respect
to the memory of the late President. That
this will be done as soon as Congress can
be appealed to need not be doubted. But
that will only halfmend matters. Defrccs
himself will, in the meantime, have kept n
great number of worthy, Woodworking
poor people out of money justly their due,
causing them more or less inconvenience, if
not positive suffering. A man incapable of
appreciating the significance of facts like
these is incompetent to control the earn
ings of the, at best, over-worked and un-
derpaid employees of the Government Print
ing Office.

THE VENERABLE DEFREEs is what the
late Horace Greeley used to call an Old Pub.
Func. The memory Of man rnnneth not to
the time when Defrees was not in office
somewhere, drawing salary on some pre-
text. Nobody accuses Defrees of corruption.
He was already too old dog to learn new
tricks when that sort Of thing became fash
ionable-and that itself was some time ago.
The trouble with Defrees Is simply that he
has outlived his usefulness. We, being
young, cannot remember personally when
he was useful but there is dim tradition
TO that effect, and if there is one thing that
We revere above another it is dim tradition.
The Government Printing Office is a vast
establishment, employing great number of
worthy people, who are entitled to every
little immunity and privilege that inures
to employees of the Government in any
Department.
The theory that clerk, male or female,
in the Treasury at S75 to $3.50 per month,
is, in the eye'of the law, a being superior to
book -stitcher or press-feedcr in the Gov
ernment Printing Office at $11 per week or
so much by the piece is an absurd theory
and should be demolished. II is not merely
a wrong but an outrage that the pay Of one
class of Government employees should go on
while that ofanother class should be stopped
during holidays, regular or special. What

POSSIBLY A FINE QUALITY of music may
be looked for when the Senate meets, in
case the Democrats undertake to elect n
Secretary before swearing in the new Sena-
tors. 1t is understood that they will try
to do this under the pretense that Secre.
tary is needed to complete the organi-
zation, or, in other words, to officially re-
cord the deliberations Of the body. At
first blush sucha proposition sounds reasona-
bic enough, but the Senate is an old fossil
concern that goes on its own home
made precedents. If the Republican
side urges precedent in the
present case, it will soon appear that
the Senate has on several occasions man.
aged to pull through without any Secretary
at all. When the first Secretary of the
Senate, William Otis, died. there was a
lapse of several weeks before any election
was held, the Chief Clerk, or other record
ing officer, meanwhile entering the bust
ness on the journal.
In the Pickens case, it will also be re.
mcmbercd that the Chief Clerk acted in the
deceased Secretary's place without any
question having been raised.
So far as the Senate has prccedents that
might govern the approaching controversy
they are all against the Democratic preten
sions.

Some writers on Psychology contend hat
great minds occupy and move on a common
p'ahe' thai they view certain occurrences
from the same standpoint, and that when
their possessors descend to descriptions of
those occurrences they frequently clothe their
ideas or thoughts in the salne identical words.
The p~lebeian unbeliever in empirical psy-
chology scouts this doctrine and when he sees
one journal copying original articles from
another without awarding proper credit char
acterizes the act as stealing. We are led to
these remarks by noticing in the Helena Her.
aid of the 18th inst, the following:
"The success of prompt measures against
rioters was never better shown than in the
st. Lnuis street. car strike. Had the author
tiles delayed calling out the police a single
day longer the city would have seen a full
tedged labor instruction, many lives would
no doubt have been lost and much property
destroyed. A we'll organized plan and
healthy display OF arms proved too much for
the rioters, who placidly accepted the situa-
ton.

of the contemplating pioneer daily lead ed

We reproduce from the San Francisco Chron-
iete OF the I'd inst, the following:

to choose that metal of which it could with
the greatest certainty command a full supply.
According to her view, Italy and AUSTRIA and
perhaps Russia, when resuming specie pay
Inents must do so IN silver, which for them is
the only available metal; and she is equally
of opinion that since France and Germany
ann both maintain d gold standard, it is
desirable that either one should fall hack on
silver, and in that way restore the equilibri-
UNI between the two metals. John Bull being
a gold nation in England since his resumption
of specie payment in 1927, and a silver nation
in India for almost as long a period, has done
nothing to disturb this equilibrium, and
therefore docs not feel called upon now to
adopt a new policy. even if it were possible
for him to do SO. He would, however. add TO
the ~tineness of his silver in the United King
dom, make it a legal tender for say 100 shil-
lings instead of ~, ana increase his reserves
Of that metal if it was found that these eX-
pedients would assist materially in etfecting
a settlement OF the question. As for the
double standard, so-called, John Bull has lit
tie faith in it. and as the object Of the present
conference is to adopt tnat system, neither his
English nor his Indian representatives are
likely to play any important part In its coun-
cils.-San Francisco Chronicle.
