SAYS the Columbus DispateG "One
way 10 stop the disgraceful scramble
for political Office IS 70 do away with
the soft s4aps, make every man who
receives public appointment do as
much work as though he were working
for q private business firm. and give
him no more salary than he could earn
IN the same line OF work outside Of
politics." That might work well in
Ohio, where soft snaps are numerous,
but Il has no application to Michigan.
No other state IN the Union gets so
much work out of its officials for so
httle compensation as does Michigan,
and ye. there IS no lack Of candidates
Moral. Ohio's oeice-seekers are mer-
censries; Michigan's, patriots

THE Law ABOUT PILOTS.
Board Of Pilot Commit zsioners Will En-
force the Regulations.
Part TouuSAud leader

force the Regulations.
Port Townsend Leader.
The following is taken from the editorial
columns of Saturdays PosT-IYTELLrGES-
GER:
The hoard of pilot commissioners for Puget
found, in session a. Port Townsend on Mon
day, made q rule prohibiting any person not q
citizen OF the United States aud having oil the
qualifications OF voter. from plotting any YES
sci in the waters OF Puget sound. II Is seriously
to be doubted IL this Is q good rule, in view Of
our prax nifty 10 foreign waters and 10 the
many advantages 10 be gained trOm reciprocal
commerce with British Columbia II should be
the business of the board OF pilot commissioners
to aid rather than 10 hinder commere.a and In the
matter OF regulating piiotage. 10 promo.e cfSi-
cheney rather than 20 restrict competition.
The item was shown 10 Judge James g.
Swan, secretary of the board of pilot COM
missioners, who remarked that il was al
most too absurd TO notice. The writer
simply does not understand the situation"
he said. 1T will not do TO forget the treat
ment our own piiots receive on the other
eide OF the line. They are punished for the
least infringement Of the pilot regulations.
and are not allowed TO perform any service
whatever in British waters. The case of
the tug Mogul Is still fresh in the public
mind. For the alleged offense OF going on
the British side of an imaginary line in the
straits her owners were compelled 20 pay
heavy fine TO the British cnstomhouse.
The point is that the rule spoken OF is
not one made by the board Of pilot commits
sioners bat Is q part of the law governing
the actions OF the board. Section $ OF the
law says.
That persons applying for licenses to act -
pilots shall he American citizens legal voters Of
