| ly assistant secretary to President NcKin.
ley. secretary to the President and finally
| first Secretary Of the Department Of Com
| merce and Labor, with the present prospect
of being chosen to head the national re-
publican committee for the campaign Of
| 1904.
But Mr.. Cortelyou's career Is by no means
exceptional save in the degree Of his rise
Several of the assistant secretaries of the
! treasury Of late years have been promoted
from the ranks. including Mr.. Coon. Mr..
Howell, Mr.. vanderlip, Mr.. Allies and Mr..
Armstrong. All of these men have made
excellent records and some are now en-
gagged in private business with prestige
won through their departmental services.
There are many other instances.
The work assigned to the average clerk
In the public offices Is not of a kind to
stimulate him to exceptional endeavor. and
1t is deplorable that the conditions in the
government departments do tend to deaden
the ambitions of many hundreds. But 1t
is not the average man who succeeds great
ly In any calling. 1t Is the extraordinary
man. and wherever he may be placed In
business, in the law, In any other profess
sion, or in a government department, the
extraordinary man will make his way to
| the 'front.'. Inc average SOOu SteHOSldphCi'
who does merely what is given to him to
do. makes himself useful in negative way
and is content to be let alone. is likely to
become mere cog in the machine in pub
lie office. But the man who Is always look
ing for opportunities to enlarge. his own
sphere, without intruding upon the Juris-
diction of another, who is inventive OF new
and better ways of doing the work, who
exhausts the possibilities of every subject
given to him for research. who can write
noteworthy reports for his chief. That Is
the man who, when the occasion arises, ID
chosen for an honor and responsibility 70
htical favor Is not so potent today as II
was once. The heads Of the government de-
partments and their immediate assistants
are constantly looking for the exceptional
men for advancement, knowing that to the
extent that these men are developed ana
encouraged the work Is smoOthed and the
public service is benefited
Senator Depew is wrong In his statement
that has been quoted, but he Is right IN ao-
vising the young man to seek other en-
ployment than that of the government
where he will have better chance 10 eA-
pand and to develop his individuality.

The District is In reality an unusually
peaceable. 1aw-abiding city, yet statistics
occasionally are adduced by its critics to
prove that 1t harbors disproportionately
large number of criminals and INSIDE
meanants. The records OF the police courts
are cited to disclose what appears to be a
larger number of convictions of varying
degrees of law violation than the popula-
ton warrants. and thus the capital city is
sometimes written down as bad beyond It's
size. Late reports of police court hap
penlngs contain one item which may throw

Esthetics Of Bill Boards.
From the Providence Journal

Considering the activity of the agitation
in behalf of civic betterment in Springfield,
Mass. people have often been surprised at
the unsightly objects that are allowed to
disfgure that city. Monster billboards
fiaunt their advertising near park entrances
only agitation in favor of their suppression
thus far has seemed to originate from
moral rather than esthetic notions In case
of theater advertising. But the park COM
and propose to test the application of the
law passed last year allowing such bodies
to condemn unsightly billboards as nui-
sances when they interfere with the pur-
poses of the parks. Considerable difficulty
has been experienced by those attempting
to enforce such laws in New York and
Boston, but there Is no doubt that when
public sentiment becomes fully awakened
advertising nuisances will be much more
satisfactorily regulated.

The Whistler.

The easement is open, the door stands ajar;
It's summer, and noises from near and affair
Are waited in turn to your wearying ear
Till your nerves are unstrung by the din
so severe
There's the roar of the engine, the clang of
the bell,
The cry Of the man who has something to
sell
But the worst of these nuisances is. truth
to tell
The fellow that whistles
When you're wan and you're woeful and
weary and weak
He pierces your soul with sibilant shrek.
He whistles the tune of some popular song.
He whistles it fiercely and whistles it
wrong.
The doctor may check the germs ruthless
advance,
And the law may lead other offenders a
dance.
But there's one against whom you have
never a chance
The fellow that whistles.
