whether for high or subordinate en-
ployment, is made with the utmost care
and with sole reference to the merits OF
the various candidates. Further, it has
to be borne in mind that, more especial
ly in the case of young applicants for
employment, the claims of those on the
spot have to be considered. 1t happens
not unfrequently that in this category
are to be found young men, sometimes
of English, sometimes of some other ma
tionality, with local or linguistic knoWl-
edge which particularly suits them to
fill any place which may happen to be
vacant and whose claims are all the
more deserving of consideration from
the fact that their fathers have not un-
frequently, for many years past, rem
dered useful service to the Egyptian
government.
Some of the principles laid down in
this letter seem to be good for England
and Egypt. Perhaps they would also
apply in this country and its expan-
sions.

A FAITHFUL WORK Err.

The announcement that James II.
Macdonald. chairman of the Republic
can town committee, is about to rest
from his labors as chairman has been
expected for some time. Mr.. Macdon-
aid has we'll earned the, privilege OF re-
firing from an arduous and rather
thankless place. He has been very eff
cient as chairman, so much so that his
successor will find it difficult to follow
the example set by him. He has been
original in his methods, shrewd and far
sighted in his planning, and very sue
cessful in his achievements, He has
not depended on low trickery for sue
cess, but has relied upon hard and hon
est work. He will leave the chairman
ship with the good will of all in both
parties who have come in contact with
him.

People who are not yet old can re-
member when it took weeks TO cross
the western plains. They are now call
ed upon to wonder at and admire the
new Oriental mail trains. Ten years
ago the best time that could be made
between New York and San Francisco
was days hours and Is minutes.
The postal managers were making close
connections and the engineers were tax
ing their resources. Later, in 1893, the
service was again reduced, first to 4
days % hours, and again to 4 days ~
hours, which was the speed maintained
up to the close of last month. With
year the time is again cut down to
days and 90 hours. This comes pretty
near the record for the fastest single
trip across the continent, but the fact
which makes the achievement impor-
tant is that the new schedule is not an
experiment at record breaking" but is
adopted for regular routine use and is
considered by the railroad men of the
country to be entirely practicable.
Wonderful indeed How foolish the
Filipinos and the Cubans will be if they
make any objection to letting us i'm
prove them and teach them how to run
fast mail trains and do other highly
civilized things.

uncomfortable to walk in, no matter
how carefully the wearer adapts her
gait to them.
Stockings Of plaid and bright solid
color are still worn, and blue ground
covered thickly with little white or red
dots is favorite sort. One effect of
wearing tights over '.he stockings Is
that the heavy knit underwear so uni
versally worn all winter years ago is
no longer in vogue. Recognizing the
fact that summer heat is maintained in
houses, many women do not change
their underwear in winter, but when

the way beaux dressed their legs in the

Now that we are so friendly with our
English relatives perhaps we can afford
to admit that it may be possible for us
to learn something from them about
governing our new colonies. We might,
for instance, get hint or two out of a
letter written to Lord Salisbury by Lord
Cromer 1t appears that the latter has
been overwhelmed by applications from
all sorts Of young Englishmen for snug
appointments in Egypt. He says that
there are no such plums for distribu-
ton, and adds: A very small number of
Englishmen are employed in high posi-
tions. Every effort is made to restrict
the number of Europeans, whether of
English or of other nationalties, in the
subordinate ranks of the public service,
which is more especially-and, as far as
is possible, Xclusively-reserved for ma
tives of Egypt 1t does indeed, occa-
sionally occur that the employment of
young Europeans is necessary, but such
cases are of rare occurrence. 1t is no
exaggeration to say that only very
small proportion of those who apply to
me and to others for employment have
the least chance of obtaining it. l
should add that in the cases to which
/ have alluded above, technical knowl-
edge of one sort or another is generally

Il CHANGED MIN.

They are laughing at Senator Vest,
and laughing at him in the South, too,
because he has made such lamenta lions
over the Filipinos, who are, he walls,
doomed to be held, without their con-
sent mere chattels, to be disposed of
as the sovereign power of the mother
country may choose" victims of 1.-The
greed Of the commercial and money
making classes in this country" 1t is
recalled that it was Senator Vest who
in 1861 introduced in the Missouri legis-
lature a bill to punish with death
ANY one who by writing, speaking,
printing or engraving, melted a slave
to be insubordinate to his master. Aid
ing a slave to escape was to be punish
ed, for the first offense, by ten years
in the penitentiary, and by being
branded in the palm of the right hand
with the figure of the cross. F" The Sec
ond was to be punished with death
OF course Senator Vest can reason
ably and truly say that he has changed
since 1861. He can also say that if he
was wrong about slaves and slavery in
1851 he Is right about them now. But
we are not going to enslave the Filipi-
nos. We are going to free them and
civilize and Christianize them. If they
foolishly object we may have to hurt
good and the good Of the world.
