Few people in Wisconsin were aware
of the precautions taken by the United
States secret service and the local pO-
lice to protect President Roosevelt
during his recent visit to the state
The plan followed in Wisconsin is the
one adopted for the whole trip and will
prevail until the president returns to
Washington in June. The arrange
ments for the protection OF Mr.. Roose-
velt during the present tour are the
most complete that have ever been
adopted for any president of the
United States, and if any harm befalls
the executive it will be such as is i'm
possible to avert. Ten days before the
president made his start three secret
service men left Washington with in
structions to visit every city in the
west where the presidential party was
scheduled for a visit. One of the men
was assigned to the task of ascertain
ing from railroad officials on what
track the presidential special would
enter the depot and where it would
stop. If it was discovered that the
train would stop near some outbuild-
ing or close to the windows of the
station it was his duty to note the
fact. He was to determine the exact
distance from the train to the carriage
and the length of the route which
the president would traverse from the
depot to the local destination, taking
note of the buildings along the line of
march with view to discovering any

PLACE FOR YOUNG MEN.

There never was time when there
was as great demand for young men
of intelligence, industry and education
as exists at the present time. In any
line of business that may be taken up,
the same condition exists everywhere.
Every great corporation in the country
is on the look out for such young men,
ready to offer them special induce
ments, while in the smaller business,
there exists the same demand for capa-
BILE young men. 1t was only recently
that the Illinois Central company took
steps to enlarge its waiting list, by in
structing it's agents all along the lines
to secure the names of intelligent
young men, reliable and trustworthy,
who desired to enter their service.
There are plenty of men wanting jobs
on the road, but they are not the kind
wanted, and the company has taken
this step in order that it may be in a
position to fill all positions with the
kind of men desired.
But it is so everywhere, There is
scarcely man in business anywhere
who is not on the lookout for just
such a young man as is desired by the
Illinois Central
Many years ago a noted writer of the
times, said that a young man to sue
coed in any line of work, must love
that work as he loved nothing else.
That it must occupy the first place in
his thoughts and that everything
should be sacrificed rather than neg
lect his work.
What was true then is true today
The young man who is interested in
the work he has taken up, has the in
terest of his employer at h9art, who
strives constantly for advancement,
forgoes many little pleasures, rises
rapidly and soon is near the top Of the
ladder. His services are sought after
and he never has cause for complaint.
The boy who starts out in life and fol
lows any other policy, is never a sue
cess.

lookouts from which it would be pos
sible to assault the president without
fear of apprehension. The second
man was to find ont accurately where
the president would stand in address
ing the people, the names of the local
committeeman and their number, and
names of others who would occupy the
stand in addition to those directly in
charge. To the third secret service
agent was assigned the duty of making
arrangements with the local police for
the protection of the president, desig-
mating how many plain clothes men
should be in the crowd and their sta
ton. The reports of these three Sc
cret service men we're then to be writ
ten deliberately and with great atten-
ton to detail for the use of the men
directly in charge of the presidents
person. 1t is understood that
this plan has been followed with great
care. 1t is undoubtedly done with
out the knowledge of Mr.. Roosevelt as
he has repeatedly expressed great ir-
ritation with the efforts of the secret
service to throw safeguards around
his person during his frequent trips
away from the capital. 1t will not be
the fault of the secret service if an
other incident like that of Buffalo
takes place on this presidential jour
ney.

MODERN ROAD MAKING.
None But Trained Engineers should
Be Employed for Performing
This Important Work.

The old aphorism about pinching at
the spigot and losing at the bunghole
quite as often applies to rural prac-
tees as to city ways, indeed, it some
times finds more frequent illustration
In the country where cash has rela-
lively higher value than labor, and
where theoretical knowledge is lightly
esteemed. This bad policy is more
often applied in the improvement or
management of country roads than in
almost any other line of work. If an
organized system of drainage is I'M
dertaken the necessity for the services
of competent engineer is generally
admitted, but roads are supposed to
be different AS a rule only the sur
face is considered. That reduces the
question to choice between appli-
cations of dirt, gravel or crushed stone.
candidates for the office of road com
missioner. No theoretical knowledge
of mechanical engineering or of road
making is required of these candi-
dates and the citizens usually con-
slider themselves fortunate if the po-
sition is held by fairly intelligent
man of energy and good intentions.
He has to learn as he goes along, how
ever, and the township generally pays
dearly for his education. The lawful
country roads of the country have
been the subject of great deal of un-
70 IL lois % ri nf
eign visitors, and the loss sustained
through the difficulty and some
times suspension of traffic by reason
thereof is enormous. We have long
supposed this was one of the IRENE
dial drawbacks of new country, as
Justify heavier taxation for expensive
turnpikes. However, engineers have
been turning their attention to the
matter, and now tell us that good
roads and dirt roads are not incom-
patible; that good road making is all
a question of knowing how, and that
the money expended for road improve
ments which are not directed by skill
and intelligence is money thrown
away. 1t is time we outgrew this no.
ton that a public office is private
snap, time that we outgrew our petty
economies in public affairs. If the vii
lagos and townships of the United
States, during the past SO years had
paid their money to experts who
gave them honest advice and skilled
services, men who would have coordin-
ated their efforts, it is altogether
probable we would have had very
different and much better system of
roads to-day 1t is not too late to in
stitute reforms now, and right here
is a chance for our agricultural col
leges to do some good work. The ag-
ricultural college. of course, cannot
attempt to fit a man for rural occupa-
ton. but it can at least give him an in
telligent knowledge of the problems
involved in road-makipg and; to that
extent make him good citizen, not
likely to submit tamely to the waste
of money by ignorant roadmasters.
The engineering departments Of our
state colleges are graduating men well
qualified to do work of this kind, and
it would be economy on the part of
municipalities to employ them rather
than local officeseekers who are ever
on the lookout for jobs of this kind

Horses Were Fighting Flies and

Mcpherson, Kan, July H-Mrs. VII
liam McCarty. living near Galva, was
seriously hurt in a runaway yesterday.
The accident occurred yesterday noon
and this afternoon she was still uncon-
scious and in a critical condition.
The family was getting ready to drive
and Mrs. McCarty and her daughter were
in the buggy. The horses were fighting
flies and in some way jerked the lines
out of Mrs. McCartys hands and while
the daughter was out getting the lines
again the horses started to run, throw
ing Mrs NcCarty out. DR. Hall was at
once sent for and everything is being
done for her recovery. She fell on her
forehead and besides being stunned was
severely injured in her body. One rib
was bent out of shape and two others
broken, a piece of one piercing the lung
and causing bad hemorrhage which
would have killed her had aid not been
called at once. The team kept on run
ming for two miles without upsetting
the buggy or throwing books out. A
son of Chas. Gustafson stopped them.

IS HELD
President Meets Many Jewish
Citizens at His Home.
PETITION ORAGS ALONG
Delay in Its Preparation Has
Embarrassed Roosevelt.

Oyster Bay, L. l., July 14.-An import
ant conference was held at Sycamore
Hill today between the president and
representative Jewish citizens OF the So
city of B'Nai B ,Rith regarding the Pc
| tition 20 the Russian government on
| the Kishineff outrages. Besides the pres
| ident, the parties to the conference were
| simon s. Wolf of Washington, Oscar
S. Strauss and Leo y. Levi of New
York
The administration-~has been embar-
assed by the delay of the Representatives
of the BNai 3 Rith society in present.
ing the petition. 4 draft OF the docu-
ment was handed to President Roose-
Welt several weeks ago by Mr.. Wolf. but
it was decided after some consideration,
TO modify the text of the petition before
presenting it formally to this government
for transmittal to Russia. This was de-
sired, too. to obtain 70 the petition the
signatures of representative citizens of
the United States of all the religious
faiths.
AS result the document was not placed
in the hands of the president until today.
The result of the confeSence at Saga
more Hill has not been disclosed yet, but
a strong intimation is given that the
petition may not be forwarded to the Rus
sian government The desire of both
the president and Secretary Hay is that
the Kishinef incident should be closed
as soon as possible. as further delay il
its consideration might prove ernbar-
assing TO this government in other diplo-
x,if
Inasmuch as the Russian government
has indicated by the adoption of severe
measures a genuine disposition to punish
adequately the perpetrators of the Kish-
theft murders and in addition those who
instigated them. il is a problem for the
president and Secretary Fay to solve
whether representations concerning the
incident now are other desirable or nee
essary.
1t is suggested that the whole matter
may be resolved into brief statement,
through diplomatic channels. TO the Rus
sian foreign office that such a petition
is in the hands of the United States. thus
leaving 1t to Russia TO say wh<--r it
would or would not receive the docu-
ment if it were presented. 1t would close
the incident without subjecting United
States relations with Russia to a strain,
and. it is regarded, would be quite as
effective as the usual presentation of
the petition.
Members of the Jewish committee. to-
gether with DR.. Albert Shaw. editor OF
the Review of Reviews, and his friend
from England, Maurice Sheldon Amos,
were the guests of the president at
luncheon.
Secretary Root left today for Washing
ton. He said that he could not sail for
England before the 23d OF August. be-
cause il was desirable that he should
see the general staff in full operation
before he left the country.
