FRANK MITCHELL IS
MADE POSTMASTER.
His Name Has Been Sent
To The Senate.
GETS PLACE FOR FOUR YEARS.
Appointment Goes to the Senate at
Once and Frank Mitchell viii Sue
coed the Late Postmaster s. a.
Smith at AmerIcus.

Frank P. Mitchell will be postmast-
err of Americas for the full term Of
four years. The appointment has al
ready been made by President Roose-
welt and with several others of like
character have been sent in to the
Senate for confirmation.
Such was the gratifying information
received by Mr.. Mitchell yesterday
morning, conveyed in telegram sent
from Washington.
1t has been expected all along''gthat
Mr.. Mitchell would get it.
As assistant postmaster of Americas
for long number of years he was the
logical man for the place, besides be-
ing capable of discharging the duties
of the office. Since the death of Post
master S. A. Smith several months
agohe has served in that capacity.
To Mr. Mitchell belonged the unique
distinction of being the only white
republican in the city of Americas.
He is republican from principle, as
was his father before him.
There were numerous other appli-
cants for the vacancy. but with the
endorsement of many of the leading
busip ess houses and citizens of Ameri-
Gus, together with that of the political
powers OF the state, Mr.. Mitchell was
easily the leader from the first.
He was born and reared here in
Americas and has the confidence and
esteem of the entire city and county
without regard to political party or to
color.
While nothing to that end has been
announced it is generally supposed
that the personnel of the postoffice
force will remain unchanged under
the new administration. All the en-
ployes there are very capable and at
tentive to their duties.
Postmaster Mitchell will assume his
new duties as soon as confirmed by
the senate.

A PROBLEM SOLVED.
Another Gordian Knot Cut
A Discovery Invaluable to the
Science of Medicine,
An Invention That Viii Be of Benefit
to Thousands of People.

There is no doubt about the value of
Vinol, the new form of cod liver oil,
concerning which so much has been
said lately. 1t is just another one Of
those great inventions that is bound to
reyoutionize certain branch of
science This time the science is that
of saving lives. Hence the greater
good that will be derived from this diE-
covery.
Mr., J. G. Dodsop, proprietor
Dodson Pharmacy, of this city,
who 50 fortunately succeeded in asso-
clatlng himself with the prominent
Boston firm, has indeed made his
name one that will never be forgotten
in our city. His foresight and
shrewdness enable him to take adYan-
tage of what has proved to be most
wonderful blessing to all who are in
need of medicine for the cure of throat,
lung and bronchial troubles, as we'll as
wasting dis eases of every description.
This Vinol is simply cod liver oil in
new form, cod liver oil without any
oil, paradoxical as the statement may
sound, in other words, as Mr.. Dodson
explains il himself, Vlnol is che con-
centrated essence containing all the
active medicinal principles found in the
liver of the live cod, without any of the
obiectionaI features that were formerly
extracted at the same time, such as
fatty matter. The extract which is
the basis OF VInoI, becomes tasteless,
administered as it is in delicate table
wine. The efficient manner in which
it acts is really wonderful. Physicians
are now able to prescribe for partients
Vlnol where it would have been i'm.
possible a short time ago to have reco-
mended cod liver oil on account of the
depleted condition of the patients d.
gestive organs.
This has always been q drawback
that has prevented more cures being
effected where cod liver oil has been
indicated. Patients are now able to
take this medicine without the slight
est inconvenience. In fact to take de-
liscioussVinol is pleasure. Its bene-
fetal effect is most gratifying.
It is not often we believe it our duty
to expatiate so fully on a subject, but
this is one that will admit of careful
investigation by all, for it is indeed
of the gravest Importance that every
one should become conversant with a
remedy that is so often needed in our
bleak climate.

ENGLISH HYSTERICAL?
London Lady.

Are the English pe\ple growing
hysterical? The questiN was often
put during the war, and ~he IN
deniable hysteria in the nations
periodical demonstrations of Joy
over petty successes in the field
was excused by the special circum-
stances. How will the same thing,
manifesting itself lately in the
public attitude toward the crime of
murder, now be excused and ac-
counted for? A man who put his
child to death "for fear she should
grow up bad like her mother" was
cheered in court and out of it as a
hero. Sentimentality of a peculiarly
revolving type dictated both the
crime and the applause. Again, a
man who killed his wife because
she provoked him with assertions
of her unfaithfulness and threats
that she would persist in it, was
excused by the Judge and sympa-
thised with by press and public.
The provocation which this muir
derer received in law mitigated his
crime, but surely this legal benefit
was all he deserved.
1t is a grievous pity that people
who ought to know better shout
sentimentalise over acts of violence
and comiserate with rufians.

THE sUBTREAsURY SYSTEM.
Buffalo Express.

Buffalo Express.
According to the Chicago Tribune
a proposition will be submitted tc
Congress when it assemblies in De-
cember for the abolition of the sub
treasury system. The desire for such
action has grown out of the present
financial stringency. The fact that
the prosperity of the Government
withdraws money from circulation
and thereby becomes a handicap TO
business has often attracted atten-
ton. Under the present system all
money received from customs must
be paid directly into the treasury
OF the United States or some sub
treasury. Receipts from internal
revenue may be loaned to banks
without interest if this is done be-
fore they get into the treasury. But
the banks must deposit bonds as
security for the money, and they
are hard to get. After the money
is once in the treasury it can be
paid out only through appropria-
tions by Congress.
If the subtreasuries are abolished,
Government receipts would be reg
ularly deposited in banks under
some different form of security than
that now required. Consequently,
when there was a surplus it would
remain in the regular channels of
trade, instead of being withdrawn.
The idea looks reasonable from the
bankers and business viewpoint.
The great objection it will eneoun-
ter will be the popular prejudice
against permitting private institu-
tions to have the use free for indef-
mite periods of large sums of pub
lie money. This looks to many peo-
pie like showing too great favoritism
toward a particular line qt&dsi
ness. There undoubtedly would be
opportunities for the abuse of the
privilege, which might result in
scandals, and the practice would
always be under suspicion.
The practicable alternative to the
abolition of the subtreasuries would
be to put the Government deeper in
the banking business. enabling it
to loan its surplus at interest I'M
der Isuch prudent restrictions as
may be devised.
