Just twenty-five persons (no more
and no less) have been called to the
presidential chair from Washington to
Roosevelt, so that the latter cannot by
any possibility be the twenty-sixth,
who has not yet arrived any more than
has George w of England. There has
never been an interregnum in our gov
eminent, never a .'pretender,' and new
er an instant that the presidency was
occupied or claimed by more than one
person at a time. We have had TWEEN
ty-nine presidential elections. and FIVE
vice presidents have come to the chair,
making in all thirty-four assumptions
of the office. Now, Mr.. Roosevelt is
either the twenty-fifth president--that
is, the twenty-fifth person who has as
sumed the office-or he is the thirty
fourth president, reckoning terms and
parts of terms. but by no possible jug
Cling with figures can he be made to be
the "twenty-siXth.
I presume this queer mistake origin
ated in the second election of Mr..
Cleveland, who was the first president
reelected with an intervening term.
When first elected he was the twenty
second president. but was inconsider-
ately called, when elected again eight
years afterward, the twenty-fourth-

Shaken Faith

A religious old darby had his faith bad
~ shaken not long ago. He is sexton
for white church in a Fayette county
town. and one afternoon as he was n
front sweeping the pavement a strong
wind arose. tearing piece of the cornice
off and taking a few bricks out of the
wall. Realizing that a good run was
better than bad stand. the old man
sought shelter in the station house on the
opposite side of the street.
Several minutes later a member of the
church of which Uncle Isham is sexton
came by, and noticing him in his retreat,
remarked that he thought the station
house a strange place for a man of faith
to seek shelter in a storm when a house
of worship was near.

Drs. Shores
Are Reliable.

In dealing with Drs. Shores & Shores
you are taking no chances. Drs.
Shores have maintained permanent Of
fees in Salt Lake City, for ten years
past-and their business has grown
bigger and bigger each year. simply
because the people have found out
that Drs. Shores treat them honestly
and cure their friends and neighbors
and charge so small a fee for their
services that the poor as well as the
rich can be cured.

pear in our city every year when the
colder weather drives them out of the

the vote be against the licensing of
liquor, it is provided that on petit

4 Special Committee Reports Many Abusss
Of Long Standing Absenteeism Con-
siderable contributions Made.

Washington, March 1.-The report
Of the special committee of the house
which Investigated the employment
rolls was made public yesterday by
Chairman Moody. 1t says that some
of the faults observed in the admins
tration of affairs of the house are
attributable to the persistence OF
members of the house in urging upon
the officers the appointment of their
constituents and friends to subordi-
nate places and that such faults are
deeply rooted, OF long standing and
likely to continue under the admins
tration of any political party as long
as such asylum is maintained"
OF the offices of the clerk and door
keeper the committee reports that
they found in both departments GER
tain abuses, which may be grouped
under three heads, namely, transfers
OF employees from the duties of posi-
tions to which they were appointed
to other duties, unjustifiable pay
ments of compensation to employees
while absent from their post of duty
and dividends of salaries.'
Under each heading the committee
specifies a number of individual in
stances. The committee says that the
amount of absenteeism is consider
able. 1t is stated that one employe
has not worked over six months In
the nearly four years during which he
has drawn pay and has not been in
Washington for II or II months.
Many cases of contributions by EN-
ployes of salaries are mentioned, one
of them in the last congress being
$1,000 annually out of salary of 3d.
600. 1t is explained that these con-
tributions went toward equalizing sal
aries of employees.

NEGOTIATING PEACE TERMS.
Gen. Botha Offers to Surrender to Lord

French the Hero Of the Hour.

London, March 1.-The Daily News
says: 1--WE learn that Commandant
Gen. Botha offered to surrender on
certain conditions and that pour
parlers are still in progress. 1t is
probable that Mrs. Botha brought
proposals from her husband to Lord
Kitchener"
Gen. French is the hero of the hour,
though, Of course, Gen. Kitchener's
controlling hand Is recognized under
every circumstance. 1t is not be-
lie,ed to be at all likely that Gen.
Kitchener will grant any armistice
as preliminary to peace. Steyn, De-
wet and liertzog are still ateld, but
the remnants of their commanders are
without reserves or ammunition, and
are heading for districts which have
been emptied and rendered uninhabit-
able by Lord Kitchener's policy of
corralling the farmers and their fami-
lies in strongly garrisoned posts. Mill
tary men are so well pleased with
the war news that they consider the
dispatch of further reinforcements
unnecessary. except for the relief of
the worn ont and iaded army of oc-
cupation.
