Poor Outlook for Peace.

"All this talk about the importance of
the peace treaty now before the Senate
reminds me of an incident that occurred
in the old country some years ago." said
Col II. r. McMurtrie of Flagstaff, Ariz.
to the Washington Post 1T was lust
before left my old home in Kildare, Ire
land. / went to the parish church to hear
an Easter sermon by our pastor, Father
Malone. He, of course, preached on the
resurrection, and the era of peace and
good will on earth and among men which
would follow. He grew fervidly eloquent
on his topic, and his remarks made a.
deep impression on his hearers. In the
audience was an old man named Mcguire.
who was a relative of priest of that
name, who had joined the rebellion of 49,
and had been outlawed and hanged by
Cromwell. His memory had survived and
he was regarded by the faithful people of
that part of Ireland as little less than a
saint.
''After the sermon Mcguire went UP to
Father Malone with a troubled look in his
countenance. DO you tell me- fayther
that all the payple of the wurruld will
mate tighter at the time We mintion?'
asked Mcguire.
q" We are so informed in the holy Scrip
lures answered the priest.
" DO you think Oliver Cromwell will be
there? he persisted, the troubled look
growing deeper.
=" No doubt he will, was the answer.
And Fayther Mcguire?
- Undoubtedly So

BY the time the train had reached Cres-
ton, says the Chicago Record. the news
agent had been around seven times and
on every occasion had rousted the man who
had got on at Plattsmouth out of his IN
easy sleep. He had offered him a book by
ID. j.. Moody, a package of "crackerjack, ."
a bottle of smelling salts, a travellers cap
a bag Of shelled nuts, a ropy cigar and a
comic library" And every time the trav-
eler grew angrier and more discourteous in
his discourse.
He should have known better than to
talk back to a news agent.
But he didn't, and on the occasion Of the
eight awakening, he opened up with sar-
casm and said, Il don't want any litera-
ture or neckties or subsistence or wax for
hardwood floors or anything. Now, don't
bother me-
Haven't you need for anything at ALP
asked the boy.
You might bring me a pet giraffe If you
have one in stock"
Il haven't" said the boy. and he went
away.
Ten minutes after the man was blissfully
snoring. Suddenly he was shaken into
wakefulness. The boy was there. Didn't
L say l didn't want" the tourist began,
Indignantly
Yes" said the boy, mildly. I'm not
going to offer you books or anything. It's
about that giraffe DO you want a male
or a female? Because" The traveller
threw himself back in his chair.
Twenty minutes later his nasal solo
was again interrupted. 1t was the boy.
Il wouldn't wake you, only you really
seemed to want that giraffe so badly" he
purred. Il want to be sure about it. DO
you want a trained giraffe. or would you
rather save the difference and take one
that kicks and balks?"
There was a scrunching noise as the
man writhed in his seat The hoy passed
on.
After that the boy came in arithme-
tical retrogression. First here was a
space of fifteen minutes between visits
Then fourteen, thirteen. twelve, eleven,
and so on. He wanted to know whether
the giraffe would be poIka-dotted or spat-
tered with color like an Easter egg. How
about his eyes, blue or sea green? An
old one or an infant? Would he"
At the close of the seventh-minute pc
Rod the man succumbed. He spoke in
low tone to the boy. and shortly after the
latter reappeared with a copy of Tai
mage's sermons. The traveller paid him
s. raised the window, throw the book
out on the bosom of Iowa and turned over
into A sweet doze.
The boy passed him frequently after
that, but did not stop to inquire for any
further details about the giraffe.

No Places for Their HeeIers.

The civil service law is not popular with
congressman. In the House on Tuesday
some of them condemned it in language
about as strong as they could use. It is
probable that If congressman were not
afraid of the people they would repeal it
in short order.
The law, however. will not be repealed.
1t was enacted after it had been most
carefully considered. The judgment of
the country approved it, and it still ap-
proves it. Congressman may fret and
fume about it, and swear that 1t should
be repealed, but they will not dare to re-
peal it, It is here to stay.
A congressman Is not quite as big a man
in his district now as he was when the
spells system was in existence. Then he
had many favors to distribute. great
deal of patronage was at his disposal, and
he gave offices to those who We're in a po-
sition to assist him in securing a re-elec-
ton. Now he is not sought by crowds of
his constituents when he is at home and
comparatively few people bother him
when in Washington. He doesn't like the
situation. He doesn't feel that he is of as
much consequence as he was before the
civil service law was enacted.
1t is a good thing for the country, how
ever. that the spols system has been abol-
ished. Suppose that system were now in
force? Many thousands of people in
Washington would regard themselves as
practically homeless and with no prospect
in sight of earning living. They would
be hopeless as we'll as homeless.
There are about 10000 office holders. To
turn the larger part of them out of Office
every time there was change in the po-
litical complexion Of the administration
would be productive not only of many
evils but also Of much misery.
And who would be put in their places?
People capable of discharging the duties
required of them and willing to discharge
them? Not at all. The most of them
would be persons incapable of earning a
living in any occupation in which there
was competition. Others Of them would
be political heelers, who would not expect
to render any service for the salaries they
received They would depend upon their
political influence to hold their places.
The spells system has been tried and
found wanting. The civil service system
is being tried and it is giving satisfac-
ton to an except congressman and those
who want Offices The people are satisfied
with it and as long as they are satisfied
congressman will not dare to seriously I'M
dertake to repeal 1t.
