E. C. Manson, for a number of years
chief dispatcher Of the Oregon Short
Line at Pocatello, has received a valu-
able Christmas present in the shape of
a promotion. A circular was yesterday
issued by General superintendent CAL
vim, and approved by Vice President
and General Manager Bancroft, ap-
pointing Mr.. Manson superintendent of
the Idaho division of the Short Line
instead of H. e. Van Housen, who has
resigned. The appointment takes eff
feet Christmas day.
The promotion of Mr.. Manson is an
other recognition of ability. During
his years of service he has demon
strated a faithfulness to duties and a
thorough knowledge of all the exact
ing details in the responsible position
he has filed
Mr.. Van Housen, the retiring super
intendent, will go to the Union Pacific,
it is said, but in what capacity is not
known. The news of the change gave
rise to some rumors that Van Housen's
resignation was forced, but an inves-
LEGATION proved this to be without
foundation; at least, so far as the Of
ficials of the line would say. Mr. Van
Housen has done good work, and re-
tires because he has what he considers
a better position in view.

FROM POCATELLO.

The following special to The Herald
from Pocatello, relating to the change,
was received last night:
1t is announced here today that Su-
perintendent H. E. Van Housen of the
Idaho division of the Oregon Short
Line has resigned, to take effect on the
18th inst, and that E. c. Manson; chief
dispatcher, has been appointed to sue
coed him. Mr.. Van Housen it is said,
will engage in the sheep business, and
he is known to have accumulated quite
flock in the last few years. The an
nouncement caused much surprise here.
Mr.. Van Housen has been in the en-
ploy of the Oregon Short Line for the
past seven years, and was formerly
first assistant to Superintendent Cal
vim, and succeeded him as superintend-
ent. Mr.. Manson has been in the dis
patcher's office here for eleven years.

600 inebriates at this same institution
studied at another time only 90 could

had passed through the American COM

moral detection. The moral sense is
weak, made SO by the complacency of

There is but one conclusion among

that is that it is a waste of money,

morals of any man or woman who in
dulges therein. Rule out of court it you

there are those who still cling to the So

An Old Time Maine Rumseller Disguised
With the Red Noses.
An old gentleman who was in trade
in a Kennebec village for more than
half century used to relate an anec-
dote of business rival who was IA
NOUS liquor seller in the days when
Everybody kept it. +" The temperance
agitation of 1914 had changed the no.
tions of many persons in Maine as to
the propriety Of selling liquors, and at
length the matter of for or against the
traffic came up for vote in town meet
ing.
The seller alluded to was very strenu-
GUS in his opposition to all restraint in
his business and labored heartily with
the voters to resist the encroachment on
their rights. But in the course of the
vote it became necessary to have di-
vision of the house. All for the traffic
went to one side of the room, all op-
posed to the other. The common use of
alcoholic drinks had left its mark upon
the faces of its victims, and the crowd
that assembled on one side of the town
house to insist on their customary toddy
was not SO pretty as it might have been.
To the surprise of every one the famous
old seller, after moments hesitation,
deliberately went to the temperance
side.
''What are you over here for?" the
astonished people began to question
"You don't belong here. That's your
side over there. The old man looked
around with disgust and retorted, "You

1t is to be hoped that the growing
sentiment in favor of some decided
changes in our postal system may
lead to effective legislation in that
direction. Just now bill is before
congress proposing to change the
matter to 2 cents per pound. Mr..
Cowles, author of well-known book
on ga General Freight and Passenger
Post, suggests in the last Outlook
that the express companies are be
hind the proposed change. His rea-
son for this view is simple one. He
says that the express companies
will then get the second class mail
business since they now carry packa-
500 miles" The follwing table vouch s
Tor the statement:
On 100-pound Packages
New York to New Haven. sc a pound.
New York to Boston, 1c a pound.
New York to Philadelphia, q pound
New York to Cleveland, 115c pound.
New York to Cincinnati, &c pound.
The writer has in mind an instance
when 15O-pound trunk was carried
from Alabany to New York city and
delivered at the street and number in
that city for 90 cents. 1t will be east
ly seen that Mr.. Cowles' point of view
is probably correct.
But there are more serious OBJ
jections to the present system. The
United States paid $29,OOO,OOO for
transmitting 365. 100000 pounds OF
second class matter in the last year
and received from the business
100000, leaving deficit from Sc
cond-class matter of $26, 100000.
At the present time the same rates
cents q pounds paid to the railway
companies as they receive when the
first contract was made, twenty five
years ago. 1t will be seen from the
rate quoted that the expires com n
les not only make profits at d 2-cent
rate and less, but also pay to the
railroads 40per cant OF heir gross
receipt for transportation. The only
conclusion that can be reached is
that the railroads are beating the
government out OF more money that
the business is worth It really costs
as much to send 100 pound mail
sack as it does first class passenger
The people have never been
awakened to reasons for the an
nual deficit in the postoffice. There
are no reasons for it. The govern
ment could still retain the 1-cent rate
and pay expenses if the postal
authorities had backbone enough
to insist upon better rate on the
part of the railway companies. Mr..
Cowles says, in another place in the
same article, 'that four tenths of a
cent per pound is a just rate for the
railway transportation" If this
was secured, the deficit of 90, 100000
on second-class matter would be turn
ed into surplus of 100000 and
the people could then have penny
postage. AS long as the unjust Scent
rate is charged there is no hope for
snch remedy. Neither is the pro-
posed bill remedy. New contracts
must be made regardless of the politi-
cal influence brought to bear upon
members of congress and of the postal
department to keep the old contracts.
The only way to do this is by public
sentiment, and agitation by the
press.-St. Paul Dispatch.
