Press Comment.
First to Believe Fraud Honest.

A new scandal has broken out in the
postoff1ce department. Charles Hedges,
superintendent of the free delivery bu-
reau, and the successor to A. W.
Machen in that position, has been dis
missed for drawing a per diem OF 81
for alleged services in different cities
when it is proved that he was hun
dreds of miles away. He confesses
that he took this. method of bringing
his salary up to respectable level,
and brazenly asserts that his dismiss
sal is without warrant because the
question has never been tested wheth-
er he cannot charge the per diem as
matter of right. Of course the ques-
ton has never reached the courts, be-
cause Mr.. Hedges has the unique dis
tinction of being the first official dis
covered who thinks it honest to charge
the government for bogus services.
Padded expense accounts in his view
have not been declared illegal, and
hence doubt exists as to the venerable
principles of honesty that conscience
decides for most men not callous to its
DEGREES. The Hedges disclosure is
rather petty, but it adds to the convic-
ton that the department is so honey
combed with fraud and theft that con-
gress must clean it out-Pittsburg

"The Iowa Idea" on Monopoly.

From start to finish of the Iowa Republican state
convention no condemnation of the monoplies was
heard If mentioned at all they simply referred
to as natural and necessary ougrows of business con
d1tions. few days since Prof John Bates Clark adj
dressing the students of the University of Chicago said
Whether we like it not believe that regime of al
most universal consolidation in all lines of industry has
begun And the lesson he drew is that it becomes the

OF monopoles? 1t was the thing remote from
the intention of those who made the platform and ruled

sought to smother competition and in this respect
been far more successful than ought to have been

Veterans Defeat Their Ends.

The veterans who have been COM
planning of the slowness of the pension
office in acting upon applications will
be surprised by the explanation Of
fered by Commissioner Ware. This is
that the delay is through the ineff1ci-
ency through age of the great number
of veterans employed in the depart
ment. 1t is said that if the commits
sioner were relieved from the COM
pulsory requirements of the law relat-
ing to the employment of old soldiers
and the widows of soldiers and were
free to select force of clerks physi-
cally and mentally capable of doing the
work with ordinary speed there would
be no cause for complaint upon the
dilatory motion of the bureau upon
pension cases. While tie work of the
Office is steadily increasing the eff
ficiency of the clerical force is decreas-

Calls for Restriction.

The time has passed when there is
general opposition to immigration on
account of numbers alone. But there
is good deal of opposition to the
character of the immigrants that are
now coming to the country in the larg-
est numbers. OF the immigrants in
the past fiscal year 230,622 came from
Italy, 206,0 from Austria Hungary
and 136,003 from Russia. These three
make little more than two-thirds of
the total immigrants. To these OBJ
lection is made that they are hard to
assimilate. 1t is further urged that
they are nearly all unskilled laborers /;
that they do not go to the farms. where
their help may be needed, but that,
for the most part, they settle in cities
and form colonies, thus not only glut-
ting the labor market, but rendering
much more difficult the process of as
milation.-Louisville Courier journal

JAPAN WILL WAIT
AND WATCH RUSSIA
Definite Assurance That All Talk of War
Represents Pure Invention.

LONDON, July 24.-Japan has decided
to observe the policy Of waiting and
watching Russia, advocated by Great
Britain. In the meantime she will urge
China to carry out the assurances given
to the United States respecting Manchuria
and will endeavor to obtain the opening
of additional ports.
At the Japanese legation here an official
said:
1.-The talk of war between Russia and
Japan is an invention. Japan has not the
least intention of taking that course. 1t
proposes to wait and maintain its atti-
tude of watchfulness. Japan and Amer
lea are acting on the same lines. and it
would be difficult for any other power to
withstand the pressure they and Great
Britain could apply"
1t is said that Japan intends to do
nothing until October, when the final
evacuation of Manchuria must occur. The
failure of Russia to withdraw from Man
chura would be followed by serious
move on the part of japan.

As to Gen. Woods, Pull.

1t is remarked that Gen. Wood must
have a strong pull to get for hims elf
the promotion just given him. or
course he has, and President Roose-
welt would be ungrateful indeed if he
did not do what he could for his old
friend the man who helped him in the
past 1t will be remembered that it
was Wood. and not Roosevelt, who
was colonel of the rough riders, and
that it was under Wood that Roose-
welt made his grand stand play. Still,
though this favoring of Gen. Wood on
the part of President Roosevelt is but
natural, it cannot be wondered at that
veteran army officers feel somewhat
sore at the rapid promotion Of man
who, but a few short years ago, was a
surgeon, with the rank of captain, and
who had almost no real military ex-
perience. And yet this man is likely to
be commanding general of the United
States army in a little while, and for
many years. as he is still young

Lynchina Habit Grows.

If lynching were to be expected any
where, it would be in the Big Horn
country, where mob has captured a
Jail and killed two murderers and a
deputy sheriff. This region still has
the manners and morals of the from
tier and the ranch. Owen Wister's
Virginian, or some of his friends, must
certainly have been in the mob of
cowboys who could not wait for justice
to take it's course. But he who would
prognosticate where the next lynch
ing will take place needs superhuman
powers. North and South, this de-
f1ance of the law, this readiness of
hundreds to become murderers in or
der to punish others for greater or
smaller crimes, manifests itself with
increasing frequency. = New York

to be the man for the great work he has
undertaken. We think the time is not far
distant when we can look to the Vance

Then followed the organization of our
county branch, which resulted in the unan-
imous election of the prime mover of this
work in our county, Mr.. C. A. Lewis, as
president and Mr. ]. C. Kittrell as secre-
tary and treasurer.
An executive committee consisting of
nine Sunday school superintendents was
appointed to aid the president in thor

are: Capt j. M. B. Hunt, Mrs. j. H.

hour, answering with ease the many ques-
tions on the Needs of our Sunday School. .
