Under the new law, the mayor of cities
of the third class will be more than the
mere presiding officer OF the council that
he is at present. Having the appoint.
ment OF all the chiefs OF departments,
the responsibility for good government
or otherwise will rest upon the mayor.
This being the case, It behooves the
people of Aberdeen to elect mayor with
no private axes to grind, or overweening
political ambitions to foster at the ex-
pense OF good service. In looking the
field over. the HERALD is OF opinion that
the present incumbent, Mayor West,
will come as near filling the bill as any
that can be found, if he should consent
TO again become candidate.

HE FORGOT MILES.

When an order was issued transfer
ing Gen. H. c. Corbin from the war de
partment to the command OF the eastern
division. Mr.. Roosevelt took occasion tt
paw high tribute TO Corbin.
Recently Captain K. B. Bradford
chief of the bureau of equipment OF th>
navy, gave up his bureau poaltlon to &C
on sea duty, and Mr.. Roosevelt took oc'
casion to nay Captain Bradford high
and doubtless entirely deserved compli'
ment.
But when General Nelson A. Miles re-
tired from the head OF the army after
forty years OF faithful service, he was
permitted to 60 into private life without
one word OF commentator from the
president. He was dismissed with a
cold. blooded order issued and signed by
one of General Miles discredited subor-
dina'es. 1t is not surprising that Mr.
Roosevelt is be ng severely criticised
even at this day for his evidently DELHI
crate snub to one of Americas greatest
soldiers. 1t is strange that Mr.. Roose-
Welt places so small premium uponthe
intelligence Of the American people that,
after hi. friends had undertaken to ex.
plain the Miles snub on the ground
that the customary order had been is
sued, the president goes out of his way
to pay high tribute to two other Of
icers neither one of whom performed
service at all to be compared with that
rendered b. General Miles.
1t is no, difficult to understand the
statement made by one Washington cor
respondent, who said: "Amon: old
soldiers the language used in critic:sing
Mr.. Roosevelt is bitter. They regard
the Bradford incident as proof that it
was personal enmitv alone that prevent
ed the president IRON saying something
commendatorv to General Miles when
the latter gave up command OF the
army after forty.two years OF honorable
and distinguished service"

LUMBER OUTLOOK.
Market Conditions Improving. No Need tor
Alarm.

Alarm.
"The lumber manufacturers OF the Pa.
cfc coast are feeling somewhat better
over market conditions than they were
month ago, although there is still an
element OF pessimism that will, perhaps,
not be eradicated for another year." says
the Pacific Lumber Trade Journal in its
November issue. adding: "There can be
no question that the cutting capacity OF
the mills is at present larger than the
ability OF the manufacturers to market
their product, but this is rather the fault
OF the transcontnental lines than the APP
parent overproduction, and therefore
should net enter into any discussion re-
lating to general conditions. The inability
OF the lines 10 furnish needed rolling
stock will undoubtedly stop the building
OF new mills, which will be blessing and
will have tendency to discourage the
operation OF existing mills day and night.
"There is nothing alarming in the trade
situation throughout the entire country,
and more particularly in the territory in
which Pacific coast lumb Der products find
their best market. Prior to three weeNs
ago the weather in North Dakota and
Minnesota was unusually cold and wet ;
in fact, there has been no summer to
speak OF in that section OF the country.
This naturally curtailed purchases some.
what, and the weakening Of White pine
and Pacific coast prices when the weather
did become pleasant caused the retailers
to hold of purchasing in anticipation Of
further break in the list. There is today
practically as much building being done
in tie Old Northwest as there was earlier
the year, but the retailers are supply

ing the demand from the heavy stocks
accumulated earlier in the year in prefer.
encs to stocking up with new lumber.
This depletion OF stocks, therefore, ought
to lead to heavy purchases Of Pacific coast
woods early next year rather than during
the next two months, because it is fore.
