COMMISSIONER ROOSEVELT.

There IS probably no man IN Amer
lean politics who is more generally
discussed at the present time by
newspaper writers than Theodore
Roosevelt Of the civil service commits
sion. Nearly I'LL Of the ultra spoils-
men in both parties utterly dislike
him for audaciously championing
a theory Numerically opposed to their
ideas of practical politics; while, on the
other hand, he has the confidence and
esteem of many civil service refOrmers,
who believe that in enthusiasm, pluck
and general fighting qualities he is
well fitted to champion and maintain
the principle which they hold dear.
The St Paul Pioneer Press, leading
republican newspaper Of good convic-
tions upon civil service and tariff re-
form, but which always smothers its
convictions during a political cam
;aign, says:
Theodore Roosevelt, Of the national
civil service commission, is proving
himself to be most cmphatically the
right man in the right place. The
commission has never yet been Off
cercd by men exactly suited to its needs.
II has wanted man of energy as
well as of brains, of pride as well as
enthusiasm, of determination to en-
force and enlarge the law us well as
faith in its efficacy. In one word it
has needed u fighter. This is what it
gets in Mr. Roosevelt And the spoils
men are having a hard time with him.
They have been breathing out
threatenings and slaughter against the
law this summer. The congressional
vacation is the time when the small
potato congressman finds it especially
convenient to run down to Washing
ton and fix up Il patronage deal. His
hackers are getting hungry, he will not
be bothered with sessions of the house,
and he can find department heads
more at leisure to listen to him. So
the capital has been haunted by men
Of this calihre for months past; and
when they discovered that good
many of the offices which they had
counted ON were covered by the law,
they were virtuously indignant. Hence
the not infrcqucnt denunciation of the
law that has cnlivened the dull season.
Mr.. Roosevelt hits back. He is tired
of answering silly objections to the
law, and proceeds to size up his assail-
ants. His latest remark, that he
would rs soon think of entering the
prize ring against Richard X. Fox us
OF debating civil service reform with Il
spokesman like Frank Uatton, is deli
cious. The patronage hunters have
been getting altogether too cocky of
late 70 put them i'll their proper
places is Il public service greater than
the conducting of any number of civil
service examinations.
While Mr.. Roosevelt is rather too
fond Of notoriety, he is quite strong,
able man: and while champion of
civil service reform, he thoroughly
understand the methods employed by
practical politicians. He is staunch
republican. If he does not let parti-
sanship warp him too much, he may
make his mark as chairman of the
civil service commission.

The Milwaukee Journal

It's a mighty stingy man who won't
give orders if he has a chance. And
generally the less he knows about
things the more he has to say.
There are people whose voices would
give a steam engine the horrors, and
still they will talk
If ever marriage is a failure the
world blames the woman for it, Why?
Because she is not around saloons to
"smash people who talk about her.

The Temperature for Churning.
The American Dairyman.


We read SO much about the correct
temperature for chuming that it seems
strange in going upon the average
dairy farm to see how little they care
for the use of the thermometer. Your
average hired man would rather work
his arms and legs for two mortal
hours to get the butter by main
strength and awkwardness than to
put his head to work for ten minutes
in the use of a thermometer, that
would save him at least one hour and
a halfS work out of two hours. When
cream is in its normal condition it
churns better in about 81 degrees
Fahrenheit. Any variation from this
normal condition must be found by
experimenting with it, and no one
can tell except by trial, just what the
best, or proper temperature for the
cream of your COWS may be. Start,
therefore, ut IS and churn at each
degree on up to 66 or Z, unless you
have passed the proper point. Having
found it there will be but little va
ration, except with extreme changes
of the outside atmosphere, which will
occasionally have to be allowed for.
