A Correspondents Interview

That means that W. r. Hearst Is
invading the Washington field of
journalism and will shake up the dry

pondent in group of newspaper men.
last night who wer commenting over
the purchase Of the Times by Mr..
Munsey, the magazine publisher.
You see,' he continued, Hearst is
behind Munsey and the latter is no
slouch in business. Hearst has had
his eye on Washington for a long time,
even before he projected the American
in Chicago, but for one cause or an
other put IL off. 1 think The, Globe
missed chance In this matter"

How is that, please? said an at

We'll, the Post cannot be improved
on much. It is a great paper. ably
managed and superiority edited. The
star is simply an apology for a news
paper, It is nothing but a bargain sale
program for women shoppers. Yes. Of
course, it pays better, but how long
will It enjoy the monopoly when Hearst
and his methods get after it?'
Hearst is a glutton on expendl-
lures and will make his CMunsey's)
paper a necessity, as he has done with
all his publications. He will benefit
Washington immensly as It needed
just such a newspaper as the New
York Journal or Chicago American.
The heads Of departments cannot
buy off Hearst by making his reporters

A FEW TALKS

Various Subjects.
Have you noticed the habit Of sub
urban or out.oftown Washingt0nians
of measuring the distance to the par
tcular suburb I'm which they live by
minutes instead of miles?' asked a
puzzled looking Ohloan Of The Globe
scribe last night.

1T is and it isn't. These real estate

President Rooseyelts civil service
reform ideas are causing the insolent
destroyers Of the merit system in the
Pension Office no end of anxiety. He
has already made it perfectly clear to
them by the character Of his appoint
mrnts that purely political or social
considerations count for little with him
as against the efficiency and honesty
Of the public service His practice
Of selecting Federal officers on his
own responsibility because they are
good and competent men, is a warning
to the Eyans-Davonport dynasty that
their reign Of favoritism and injustice
is drawing to a close.
During the past week the President
has punished two conspicuous offsnders
by discharging them from office. To
be sure Collector Sapp resigned, but
his resignation was forced by charges
Of violating the civil srevice law Tine
