subject that students general did not absolutely

keep with his himself time for pleasures and good
fellowship considered as having done anything henous
While this distinction will queer those who forgot
their school days unfamiliar with the peculiar college
atmosphere there really at the bottom of it, from the cole
gan's point of view.
1t be forgotten that the college world little world by
itself and that the real coeg neither boy the ideal
being which his relatives and few of his teachers apparently

Briefly the college boy regards the faculty his natural

EFFORT FOR REFORM IN THE
DEPARTMENT OF LABOR SYSTEM


The places for laborers in the ser
vice Of the Government have been
the principal refuge of the "spoils
hunter" in Washington for a num-
Der OF years. Congressman generally
have found that none of the smaller
places are left for patronage appoint
ments in the departments except mere
laborers' positions. The result has
been that great many appointments
have thus been given to persons who
were not properly laborers at all.
A large number of women, many
of them Of culture and refinement,
are carried upon the rolls as laborers
They are then assigned to work more
or less clerical IN character. This is
in violation Of the civil service rules
But it has not been easy for the Com
mission to remedy this evil, because,
III tic Hlot piace' appointments VI Id
bOrers have not been reported to the
Commission until very recently. And
it is often a difficult thing to draw the
line of demarcation between labor and
ether kind of service, especially when
the employe devotes part of his or her
time to one and part to the other, and
may be called upon in an emergency
to do a kind of work of inferior grade

to that for which he or she was orig
inally appointed.
The only permanent remedy for
such an evil is to prevent laborers
from being appointed as a result of
patronage and favor. This can be
done by system of labor registration
such as has been adopted in the navy
yards, War Department, and the Ia
Dor service of some of our large cities
like Boston.
Accordingly, the President issued
an order that the appointment of all
unclassified laborers should be made
in accordance with regulations to be
approved and promulgated by the
heads of the several departments and
offices and the Civil Service Com
mission. These regulations have al
ready been approved in the Depart
ment Of Agriculture. and the Com
mission is now negotiating with the
other departments for the establish
ment Of similar regulations.
The examination required for la
borers will be as to their physical con-

will be no scholastic test, and man
can pass it even if he cannot read or

quite the smartest affair held in London

evening. Mr. Smith is one of the vet
eran members of the House, and is now
serving his seventh consecutive term
He is the author OF the penny postage
bill. which is scheduled for considera-
tion next session.
The people. he said. are decidedly IN
favor of penny postage. and predicted
that the. receipts of the Postofiice from
class mail matter would show 4
surplus this year-a fact which, he said
would be used as an argument next
winter in securing reduction in post
age.
Mr.. Smith did not care to discuss the

the general outlook. the Republicans. he
said, would carry the State and make
gains in the Congressional districts.

said Mr.. Oliver Carmichael. of Muncie
Ind, member Of the Hoosier State
Legislature. last night at the Raleigh.

ity of fourteen hold-over senators, and
unless there IS something akin to a
Democratic landslide. which no one be-
lieves will happen. and which there is
no reason TO think will occur. the Demo
Gratis Will not be able to elect a sufii
cient number of members to the lower
house to overcome that lead.
Indiana has in times past been n
doubtful State; now it is a Republican
State. l believe II is in the Republican
column to stay. Senator Fairbanks has
no opposition in his own party. and Will
have the hearty cooperation of Senator
Beveridge in his canvass for re-elec-
tion.
Accordingly. all that is needed is the
election of Republican Legislature
which, 1t would seem, is certain to oc
cur in November The prospects for Re
