at Hospital.

Michael Carey, of Dayton, was oper-

pital for gangrene. Sometime ago Mr.
Carey had the misfortune to burn one
foot. Gangrene set in and he was
brought to this city where an opera
ton was performed, the foot being
anlputated. He returned to his home
in Dayton. and for a time it was sup
posed that he would soon recover. Re-
Gently the other foot began to bother
him and it was found that constant II
ritation had caused the other foot to
become affected in the same manner.
Mr.. Carey is Il pioneer railroad man
and for years pulled an engine on the

gagged in business in Dayton.

SENATOR REFUSES INSTRUCTION
Bailey Of Texas Would Resign Rather
Than Obey State Legislature.


WASHINGTON. d. c.. Jan. 29.-The
emphatic declaration of Mr.. Bailey
of Texas. that he would resign his seat
in the senate rather than carry out in
structions from the Legislature of his
state directing him to vote for the Pa
mama treaty is characteristic Of him.
He has on many occasions exhibited
great devotion to his convictions. He
laid down the office of minority leader
in the house of representatives one
term before he left that body because
he did not wish to yield to the whims
of his associates who had given him
that honor. He insisted on being leader
is one of the best equipped of the
younger members of the senate and
has made several rather notable
speeches. He is still but forty years
old. and the prediction is general that
If he remains in public life for the
next twenty years he will become one
Of the commanding figures of our ma
tional public life.
His suggestion that he would resign
rather than obey instructions in which
he did not believe leads Representa-
tive Tenry Sherman Boutwell, of Chi
cagO. to say that while several Sena-
tors. like Lamar. have refused to obey
instructions, the latest case that Mr.
Boutell can recall. and perhaps the
only case. of any senator who actually
was John Tyler, who afterwards be-
came president of the United States
The legislature of Virginia passed res
olutions directing him to vote for Ben
tons famous resolution to eXpunge
from the senate records the criticism
Of Andrew Jackson. Tyler said that
that his attitude toward them had not
changed, and SO he could not vote to
expunge them. He did, however, re-
cognize a certain trust relation toward
the legislature of his state. and accord
ingly abandoned the office.
Reason for Refusing.
There are several things to be said
in behalf of senators who refuse either
to resign or to carry out the instruct
ions of legislature. The particular
bOry which elected them has presuma
bly, gone out of existence. If New York
state should choose a democratic
legislature this year and instruct Sem
ators Platt and Depew to vote for
democratic tariff bill no one would re-
gard them as in the least degree
bound by that mandate. 1t is 10 he

recently adopted resolutions recon-
mending a certain man for a federal
Office then vacant, and President
Roosevelt had laid before in cCnse
quence a section of the laws and re-
solves of the great commonwealth.
Fortunately it was not a law unto him.

Business Methods Unsafe.

Whatever may be said for or against
Mr.. Louis, the most conscientious Of
ficials of the department agree in be-
lieYing that he would have had much
smoother sailing had he never disturb
ed the incompetents and had he been
less eager to run his bureau on bust
ness principles. Mr.. Madden, the third
assistant postmaster-g general MAIN
tains that the charge that he was sell
ing specimen stamps all arose from a
disgruntled clerk whom he had trans
regarded his services as of such small
value. The official who never disturbs
anybody. who never makes an enemy
is thus in the government service safer
than the one who adopts business
methods. Probably the most unpopular
head of a government bureau is Gen. F.
G. Ainsworth. chief of the division of
military records of the war department
And yet business like congressman who
nave looked INTO the matter say that
they have found no bureau in the en-
tire government service better man
aged. if as well. as that of Gen. Aims
worth. This contrast exhibits one of
the difficulties in government admins
tratiOn. which sOcialstc advocates
would do well to consider How can
chiefs of bureaus be business-lke and
at the same time "pOpular'' in the
sense that good politics require?
