IHE Pilot has had and still has consid-
cradle admiration for Mr.. La Toilette,

ence for good 10 himself becoming can

politics may have some existence, but a
candidate for office cannot consistently
assaIl 1t, as he Is himself the builder of Il
machine, though he may not be conscious
or 1t. But machine, or an organization
or whatever one chooses to call the agen-
cy used TO bring about a certain result,
should not assume that an Individual
has full power to direct the action of any
class or nationality. When 1t is announc-
ed that the Germans oppose Mr.. La
Toilette because they are directed to do

published IN the Herold over his own sig
nature, one feels that MIR. Coleman Is a
machine of his own making, ready, will
ling and authorized to operate upon sub
jects who shout while undergoing the
moulding process, "Great art thou Ed
garn' Mr.. La Toilette, Edgar tells us,
us not safe man." And for why?"
Once upon time he declined to yield to
the dictatlon of Eddie or Ed, or whatever
his diminutIve may be. And the Ger
mans are going to resent this and they
are going to be instructed" mark the
word instructed to vote against La
Toilette. Oh. Bob, Bob, didn't you know
better than to act so as to incur the op-
position of this demi god? Were you
bereft of sense at that time or did you
not fully appreciate tie Importance of
the man who gave you instructions as to
what WAS proper and polite? Robert,
you should have yielded to the talking
machine which then sought you out, and
then and there have secured certificate
OF safety, something which Edgar now
wlthholds, and without which you are
unfit to be executive Of this state

EVERY one should protest against

now prevails as patriotism. The United
States government was ordained for the
sole purpose OF creating government of
the people by the people and not to
create an empire Conquest had DO part

fashioned this government. A system OF
piracy was instituted when the Hawaiian
government was overthrown by meddle.
some Americans on the plea that they
could improve couoIt:ons. Every act oil
spoliation could find similar justification
on the part of the oppressor. And Their
we are treated to the can't of the American
flag SO as divert attention from acts which
can find no justification in themselves.

JUDGE SEAMAN of Sheboygan who has
son In the Second Wisconsin, was in
Charleston recently. He says Gen. Will
son IS not a man to work soldiers unnec
essarllv hard and if the march of Satur-
day was difficult one, there was some
good reason for 1t. He is personally &C
quainted with General Wilson and speaks
highly OF him. He had a telegram from
his son telling him not to worry about
reports of hardships, that he was all right.
We are apt to be hasty IN critlcising.

were subjected at Charleston on Satur
day last. 1t WAS march of eleven miles
In blazing sun and 10y men not yet hard
ened to the climate. Many of the men
were overcome by the heat and the ia
tgue. The condition of some was very
serious and no doubt permanent injury
resulted to many. The hospitals were
filled that night and the doctors were
kept busy. Such severity is uncalled for
The exercise should not be beyond the

CHAPLAIN SMITH of the Second repi.
ment has been talked aboct considerable
because OF his open declaration that beer
Is good for the troops. Mr. Smith is a
teetotaler himself, but he views things
broadly. Probably where good water
could be had be might discourage the
use of beer. But temperance Is not a
question OF mere sentiment with hun.
When the boys, hard pressed for good
water, used canteens for the purchase Of
cool beer the purists protested. while
Mr.. Smith at once commended the luno-
Walton. He perceived the practical side
OF the question and advocated that which
pre- missed the most good. He says there
Is hardly any typhoid among the troops
who used beer.

custom, after hole has been drilled into rock for the purpose of blasting, to spring or widen the hole at the bottom, in order that the proper charge of powder may be tamped into it. A small charge of giant powder Is put into the hole and tamped with stick. Then a fuse is lighted and the explosive discharged, after which the debris is taken out of the hole and the regular blast charge of powder is inserted.
 It appears that Flynn lighted one end of a piece of fuse, three feet long. and powder while the fuse was burning. he thinking thh that he gould get away before have been knocked from the burning fuse and ignited the ,springing charge. The explosion broke the stick into two pieces and sent both pieces, each about four feet long, through his neck, severing the jug ular and carotid arteries and killing him instantly.
 Flynn was a native of Ireland, aged about 35 years. He was a single man, and lived in the contractors camp at Ninth avenue, between A street and Point Lobos avenue

EVADINU THE WAH TAX. Express Companies Still Refuse to
 Pay for Revenue Stamps.

Everything indicates that the express companies will in the long run shirk the payment of the war tax imposed by the Government. Several times recently de- cisions have been rendered by the courts of the East and the general public sup posed that these were test cases and that the express companies would yield grace fully and not exact the tariff from their patrons, but the companies have gone along at the same old rate, charging all for their services that the traffic would bear and then adding to their charges the amount of the war tax. In order to learn of the exact situation number of local merchants asked the secretary of the Merchants Association to make in- ouiry of those interested in the East. Yesterday J. R. Freud sent to the Mer- chants Association of New York this in- quiry: 'Do Eastern express companies now furnish revenue stamps. Wire an- Swer."
 A little later this reply was received: "Eastern express companies do not pay for revenue stamps. Suits to determine this question now pending" This really been decided by the Eastern courts have not touched the main question but only some of the side issues involved. The local association decided not to begin any action in this city involving the matter under consideration, the intention being to hold off until the question was settled by the courts of the East. The only per son who had the pluck to attack the ex- press company Is a member of the So cialist Labor party, and his case is now pending in the Justices Court.
