PENSIONS FOR CIVIL SERVICE EN-
PLOYES.

Among the many attacks that are
made on the merit system in the civil
service there are some that are hon.
estly meant. These do not. however.
attack the merit system in principle.
but go rather on the theory That i'm
purtant changes must be made in its
rules in order to fit it for permanent
success. One of these grounds OF OBJ
lection is that the present rules make
no provision for the retirement of SUI
p]crannuated employees. but protect
them in the possession of places which
they have become unfit t. fill. to the
manifest detriment of government bus
mess.
\ recommendation looking to the
correction of such evils as arise from
this source is now made by the federal
civil service commission in its annual
report to the president. The commits
sion believes that Legislation should be
passed providing regularly for the re
tiremcnt of employees in the classified
service. and that all employees admitted
to the service in the future should be
required to pay premiums monthly out
of their salaries sufficient to provide
them with pensions in their old age
The government would keep the &C
counts and acts as treasurer. but the
pension system. although compulsory
would be self-suppOrting.
This is a recommendation to which
congress should give full consideration
The need of action will become nor
apparent with every passing year, ant
whether the pension proposal is adopt
ed or some other means is thought ad
visable in place of it, the subject may
properly be taken up at once. A pen
sion system established by the fedora
government may be trusted to b'
placed on a sound financial basis, al
thus to escape the troubles of some o
the pension systems devised by on
municipalities. Herald.

proper literature, the Albany County
Republican club will be not only a
source of strength to the party, but
Of great social benefit to the members.
1t will be a place where they can as
sembic and cad first-class literature.
and at the same time talk over with
each other matters for the benefit of
the party. In the selection of officers
it is important that men without en-
tangIing alliances should be chosen. in
order that they may with propriety
represent the entire party. In club
examinations much depends upon the
officers. If they are active. the club

A WAY THEY HAVE.
What This Laramie Citizen Says Only
c~orroborates the Story of Thousands.

The particulars related by this re-
preventative citizen of Laramie are
similar to hundreds of others in this
city. When there are scores of peo-
ple all anxious to tell about the bene-
fits received from the use of Doan
Kidney Pills the greatest skeptic in
Laramie must be convinced. Read the
following:
John E. Burk, carpenter of 166
Front street, says: IF sharp pains
across the loins especially after stoop-
ing or lifting added to an annoying
difficulty with the kidney secretions
are positive signs that a mans kid
news require the use of medicine to
correct their action then mine did.
Noticing Doan's Kidney Pills advertis-
ed as a specific for the kidneys and
knowing that they were highly recon-
mended induced me to go to the Lara
ME Drug Cos store for a box. This
remedy acts directly upon the kidneys
as stated. 1t washes, purifies and gent
ly purges those organs until either ev-
er-excitement or weakness disappears.

The leaven of Free Speech

The leaven of free thought and free
speech is always at work in his coun-
try of ours. Sometimes its slow-you
may ropo and hog-tie it for a time;
but it will sure slip the moose and be
up betimes and busy. Just now it is
doing a labor MOI stunt, the sum
and substance of which is that assas-
sins and incendiaries whose special
ty has been violence and crime OF
every degree in support of uncalled-
for and industry-paralyzing strikes.
though wearing the cloak of organized
labor-who have laughed at justice
and poked holes in our ~penitentiaries
during recent years-muSt either so to
Jail where a martyrs crown awaits
them. or hike hence and hurry. Time
was. before appeal grew to excess,
that the striker always had public sym
pathy with him. Today that sympathy
is almost invariably against him
which explains why a sycophantic
press has finally crawled out of its
hole and boldly ~denounces that which
it adroitly ignored or condoned only a
little while ago. A few pOtlickers and
political pimps like Patterson, of Col
orado-whose physical and mental
m~alformation apes both the hermaph-
rodite and the harlOt-still pose as
thieves on the labor union cross in the
belief that to do so is an open sesame
to the fleshpots of official position.
1t was once-it is no longer. Public
sentiment has declared against the
sympathetic and senseless strike and
violence of every sort in support OF
either-and with his sentiment the
best elements of labors unions every
where are falling into line. The many
faced fetch which politicians once
worshipped as the labor vote is rapidly
revolving itself into a question of out
rage and crime on the one side and the
industry and law-abiding behavior on
the other-between which it is easy
for the honest and intelligent man to
make a choice.-Bill Barlow's Budget.

this reason there was a kindly feeling
toward the state. and all confidently
expected that II would early share in
the benefits of the act.

keep the reclamation service out. or il
can adopt a conCiliatory policy and
work in harmony with the national gov

THE REAL THING.

The threshing machine is ~ponderous
But performs a very great feat;
AS it sorts the chaff on one side
And rolls out the beautiful wheat.
The sewing machine is a hummer,
And always makes ends meet;
The washing machines a rubber
And does things clean and neat.
The slot machine is smoother,
And is always hard to beat,
But the political machine Is the only

IMPORTANT WATER COMPLlCA-
TON.

During the recent visit Of Messrs.
Newell and Pinchott to the state cap
ital what Is known as the Cody prop
osition was discussed in all its bear
ings.
Some years ago Colonel Cody CBuf-
falo Bid made application to the state
engineer for a permit to divert water
fromsthe Shoshone river to irrigate a
thereof. AT the same time he also
made application to the state land
board for a segregation of the land
under the Carey act. After the segrG-
CATION had been made the matter
rested.
About a e ago. through h urgent
insistence of men high up in the coun-
ellis of the Burlington railroad. Colonel
Cody was induced to enter into an
agreement whereby the government re
clamation service was permitted to
take hold of the matter. provided work
was begun during the year 1908. I'm
der the direction of Chief Engineer
Newell. engineers were placed in the
field and a contour survey was made.
This was all hat was accomplished
during 1908.
Recently Colonel Cody succeeded in
interesting some large capitalists in the
enterprise and has again determined
to go ahead with it if the state and
the national government conclude that
his rights are secure. He holds, and
the state administration is inclined to
the same view, that time was the es-
enc of the contract whereby the gov
was permitted to take hold of
the proposition, and active operations
not having begun during 1903. the con,
tract was thereby annulled. Whether
this is true or not is too fine a legal
point for The Republican to solve. 1t
does not know just the kind of work
specified in Colonel Cody-s agreement
with the Burlington people. The con,
tour survey was certainly a beginning
of work.
b state has not as yet relinQuished
its right under the Carey act. and Col.
onel Cody's right to the use of water
from he hoshone is still intact. so it
would seem to he in the power of the
state and Colonel Cody to go ahead
with the enterprise if they choose to
do so.
Only one question presents itself:
Is it to the advantage of the people o
Wyoming to prevent the national gov
from performing this hercu
. lean task? 1t might take the nationa
ge~yernpaent a little longer-althoust
this is not evidenced by previous worl
done by Colonel Cody in the Big Horn
basin-but it would unquestionably be
lone in a more substantial and work
manlike manner. The settlers, too
would have greater confidence and less
h~esitancy in locating under canals con
structed by the government.
1t is true the question OF expense is
a very important one, and it is prob
able the works would cost more under
government than under private con-
struction, but the added expense would
be more than saved to the settlers by
reason of the fact that the government
would turn the works over to the peo-
pie at cost, and Colonel Cody would
demand q profit.
Again, in the future. II the govern
ment found it impossible to obtain set
tiers at the cost price, 1t would be COM
PEELED to reduce that price. But such
a contingency is highly improbable, as
the lands sought TO be irrigated are
rich and will be vssy valuable.

Doubts the Propriety-


No one seeks to deny that Governor
Chatterton has made a most compe-
tent official since he assumed the gu
]bernatorial chair upon the death of
Governor Richards; hat he has per.
formed all the duties of the position
with ability and with a decisive firm
mendation, everyone is ready to con
cedc. but that it would be wise, under
the conditions existing. to nominate
Mr.. Chatterton for governor, there is
room for serious doubt. While there is
little opportunity for democratic sue
cess in Wyoming next fall, there is new
ertheless always a possibility of the
dominant party's defeat. To nominate
Mr.. Chatteron for governor while he
still holds the office of secretary of state
thus virtually putting in his hands two
Offices, and at the same time ignoring
the claim of other admittedly worthy
and competent aspirants for guberna
torial honors, is a course the propriety
and wisdom of which can not fail to be
gravely questioned by sober-minded re
%publicans. Such a course certainly
would leave the party open to criticism
and would correspondingly lessen the
chances for success at the polls. Ar
apparent monopoly of oftice-holding is
always distasteful and is frequently re
scented by voters.-Wheatland World
