1t has been suggested that the cleo
trio heaters Of trolley cars be con-
nected to the controller on the plat
form, so that when the highest speed
is required the heaters win be cut off.
They require some little time to cool
off, so that the heating effect will be
sufficient. This viii reduce the de-
mand for current by the heaters when
full speed is necessary. 1t requires
quite percentage Of the total output
of the generating plant in the winter

boys to learned scientists read it, The
author was invited to lecture before
renowned savants. De Rougemont
however, was hunted down and eX-
posed as a rank imposter, It was
shown that material for his story was
gathered largely from works in the
British Museum. The entire population
Of England felt silly at having been
imposed upon so easily.
Why De Rougemont ever undertook
to pass his work off as the truth is not
apparent. AS fiction it did very well
and would, no doubt, have brought
him fair returns. 1t seems that after
his notorious exploit in London, he
went to South Africa where he had
numerous adventures. Thence he made
his way to New South Wales, and be-
gan to lecture about the treasure that
he once described in a manner so daz-
zling to Londoners. His fame as a,
clever imposter is so great that even
now, a sort Of interest is taken in him
1t is certain that he entertained, even
though he cheated, a vast and intelli-
gent audience.

cents a week There has been no at
tempt to crush them or to put upon
them any taxes that would be burden
some.
The attack Of Congressman Loud has
been upon an entirely different class of
newspapers,--those published at sc
cents or a dollar a year in Kansas and
Maine and other places and sent free
TO an enormous list of persons through
out the country. They have no circu-
lation hereabouts to speak of. They
spring up like mushrooms in some
parts of the country, wherever there is
/ an opportunity for the agitator and
calamity bowler. The attack was
against dime novels and cheap books
issued as second class mail matter.
The postoffice department has al
ready carried out all that Congressman
Loud cared for particularly. 1t has ex-
cluded from the mall tons of books
printed in the guise of magazines and
/ periodicals and a lot of other publica-
! tons that were intended for special ad-
Nertising. Excluding from second class
rates does not destroy a high class pub
| lication. 1t rather tends to help the
publication of decent books, as it puts
more tax upon the publishers of the
frightful cheap trash printed for juve-
nile criminals, heretofore issued as
weekly publications, but sold regard
less of dates.
One should always suspect a man of
incipient insanity who talks about the
newspapers of a country being under
the control of any persons but the
owners. The owners of newspapers diff
fer as any other men do. Some are
weak and vacillating, some are indie
pendent and arbitrary in their opin-
ions. The opinions of the big dalies
of the country are not materially diff
ferent from those of the weeklies In
fact there is no dividing line Most of
the big newspapers have begun small
and some Of the newspapers with a
circulation of 1900 have more influence
from every point of view than others
that claim half million circulation.

LITERARY MEN In oEElCE

Edmund Clarence Stedman in adj
dressing the Authors Club of New
York. which had as the guest of honor
Thursday night, MI. Seth Low, said
that ii seemed to him men of letters
have come more to the front as intelli-
gent citizenship increased. The surest
sign that we are approaching better
times is. in his estimation, manifested
in the fact that literary men are to be
found in close relation with public
affairs.
"One of the graduates from this
club, who may be called one of the
most strenuous writers of this day, is
now at the head of this nation" Mr..
Stedman said. Another of our grad
yates, a writer of pellucid prose and a
poet to boot, is our secretary Of state.
And now one Of our active members,
one who IS still with us, has been placed
at the head of the government of the
second metropolis and the first cos
mopolis of the world"
Men Of letters have from time to
time held prominent places in public
affairs. But it would be wrong to sup
pose that they have been chosen for
their literary ability. Mr.. Roosevelt,
and Mr. Hay, have not been honored
with office because they could write
strongly and cleverly, but because
they had the character, the proper in
telligence, and the executive ability
that made them worthy of the peoples
confidence, Their literary ability
adorns gracefully their other attain
ments. There is little to suggest that
there has ever been any prejudice
against giving office to literary men;
on the other hand there is little to in
dictate that office has been, is, or will
be, awarded on the strength Of literary
ability.

NO GROUND FOR CRITICISM

The appointment of Henry c. Payne
to be postmaster general to succeed
Mr., Smith meets generally with ap-
proval. Some newspapers, to be sure,
FASTENED to point out that Mr.. Payne
has been very active in politics, and
that he has the reputation of being a
sklllful organizer, as though that fact
was something to his discredit, and
something to awaken suspicion. The
New York Times remarks that there
is nothing in the public record of Mr..
Payne to preclude the theory that he
has been appointed on political
grounds, but finds itself compelled to
say that there is much in the public
career Of President Roosevelt that is
inconsistent with such a theory.
It is admitted that Mr.. Payne has
shown great administrative ability in
the important business enterprises
with which he has been identified. His
experience as postmaster in rIil-
waukee for 10 years should also count
for great deal in his favor That he
is a strong factor in the Republican
Party is to his credit Mr.. Payne's
upright character, his business ability
his astuteness in political matters. in
dictate that Mr. Roosevelt in choosing
him was led to do so by the broadest
considerations.

GOVERNOR ALTeELD's ANARCHY

GOVERNOR ALTGELO'S ANARCHY
Ex-Governor AltgeId has made vic
ious attack on the newspapers of the
country. claiming that the spirit of
commercialism" or some such boyle
man is in control of all the big news
papers of the land. He claims that the
only class not in control of the money
power are the little papers that are
published by poor. but Independent men
at crossroads and in villages and have
circulation anywhere from 500 to 1900
in their neighborhood.
"They are too numerous" he says,
for all to be reached, consequently
there has been an effort TO destroy
them. You have noticed that at several
sessions of Congress a congressman
named Loud introduced a bill to eX-
clude these little papers from the mails
/ as second class matter, on the pre-
| tense that they loaded down the mails
and cost the government a great deal
! of money. During all these years, how
ever. the government has been paying
| the railroads millions of dollars a year
| in excess Of what should have been
/ paid for the rental of mail cars. Near
I ly every postmaster general We have
| had including Wanamaker on the Re
publican side Villas on the Democrat
lie side. have called attention to the fact
| that the government was being robbed
/ of many millions annually in this way
| and asked Congress to do something
I to stop il, but the railroads influence
was too potent 10 bring about a
change. The loss of money by the gov
/ not disturb Mr. Loud. his soul was dis
/ tressed because the government was
| carving the little publications at the
same rate Of postage that Is charged
J for larger ones. However, Congress re-
fused to pass Mr. Loud s bill. Then the
/ influences that were pushing the bill
succeeded III getting a third assistant
! postmaster general to do what Con-
/ gress had refused to do, and recently
the third assistant postmaster general
/ has been assuming the authority to
( keep certain publications out of the
mails and the criterion as TO whether
a paper should be excluded from the
malls seems TO be whether il is advO-
eating political sentiments that are
distasteful to the third assistant post
master general
This is a most discoUraging case Of
direct misrepresentation on the part Of
a public character. At the present time
almost the entire output of these small
papers is carried free by the govern
ment. The bills Of the ordinary coun-
try newspaper do not amount TO 80
