THE POST OFFICE PHONE.
Council Bluffs Nonpariel.)

The local postofice officials, impressed
with the vicissitudes of daily experiences,
think that the attention of the kind and
indulgent public should again be called to
the fact that the headquarters institution
at Washington has ruled that no infor
nation shall be given out on telephone in
quiries about mail matter
This ruling was made about SIX months
ago, and attained the usual publicity, but
it is one of the things that seems TO need
emphasizing The people of Uncle Sam S
service here do not like to be listed as
arbitrary or unobliging, neither do they
have disposition to go contrary TO the
rules and regulations provided for their
their guidance. As it stands, the latter
consideration is the more binding and
will be the guiding feature. Consequent
| ly, if you should happen to call up the
postofice and softly ask lis there letter
there for Bill Jones. don't get huffed if
the ordinarily obliging clerk refuses to
post you on the situation. Just move tc
Russia or some other country where the
equations are not SO strict.
In making the original ruling the de.
pertinent gave number of reasons, all
of which are in harmony with the judg-
ment derived from postofice experience
In the first place the admission of unlimit.
ed telephone inquiry would require at
least one extra clerk in an office of this
class, and the general service would not
be facilitated Then the possibility Of
fraud isan important factor. Information
gained over the telephone about mail mat
! ter would serve as an Identification at the
delivery window and increase the number
of frauds of this character. Telephone
inquiries might also be used to Obtain
private information. under the guise o.
being the person involved. which the de
partment has always shown d disposition
to guard.

There is song of Thanksgiving in our
hearts. The rain and the clouds are not
gloomy The stern realities of life are
stern no longer We can meet the cares
and tolls of every day with song on our
lips and light in our eyes Our little
boy is better. Last week the physicians
told US that the dread pneumonia had
come TIC him, and the world went black

with a terrible disease There was but
one thing worth having, and that was that
bow restored to health He is better.
much better now, practically out of dan
ger. and that is why there is JOY in the
heart, why every face is smiling one
every ill trivial matter and every cloue
composed of silvery lining only. On.
doubtedly we overestimate the importance
of this fact to others, although we know
there are many dear friends who rejoice
with us today, but to our notion there hav'
been but two red letter days in the recor'
of the twentieth century, first, and on thu
very first day thereof, the birth of this sam
small boy, and second, that in this glor
ious year 1905, he that was ill is restore
to US. Such experiences as those of tn
past week open up new ranges in the hu
man heart. They make US to know a
| ANGUISH that we have never known befo,
they give to US Joy that is past the tell
ing and they add to US sympathy witt
those that mourn, sympathy that onl
comes with understanding.

siety, again to victory in the Sophomore
debate at the University in 1902. In 1903
he was on the winning side in the prelim-
mary debate preparatory for the forensic
contest between Iowa and Minnesota and
was chosen to represent Iowa in the con-
test. This year he was one of the debat-
ers for the Zetagathiac Society and again
led to victory. He has won all his I'm
iversity Debates all of them unanimously
except the last one in which his side gain
ed the decision by vote of two to one.
That he is popular amoung his fellows is
evidenced by the fac, that he was elected
President of his class in its Junior year.
Mr.. Randall is now senior and his co..
lege course will soon be done. We trust
that he will locate in Crawford county as
we are convinced that he is assured of a
brilliant career and we need such men to
keep up the reputation our county h S
gained. When we remember that Mr..
Randall has earned his own way through =
out his entire college course we are in
clined to accord him additional praise.

public institutions and especially is size

son has right to be proud but if she is to
maintain her eminence it is to the future,
to the young men, she must look. 1t gives
US great pleasure therefore to speak of the
successful career of one of our young
men at the State University of Iowa
This is the institution where hundreds of
the bright young men of the entire state
are gathered and to succeed there is in
dicative of the very highest ability.
r. II. Randall, son of Mr.. S. c. Ran
dali of Denison is the boy of whose re
cord we wish TO speak. Beside being
we'll up in his stndies Mr.. Randall has
chosen debating as his special field. To
our mind it is much more practical than
the so-called oratorial contests as it com
bines all the good points of the Grafton

Prince Napoleon has settled a
large sum on his morganatic wife

There has been another great
disaster in New York. A tenemnet
house caught fire. The fire escapes
had been allowed to be filled with
all sorts of refuse and rubbish and

Nearly a score Of people were
roasted to death on the fire es-

and the agonized crowds Of spec

investigation, just as there was
after the Iroquois fire, just as
there was after the Slocumb dis

reminds us that it is Saturday
afternoon and time for the "ghost

the way Denison has night

He may not have made a great
number Of sensational arrests but
as a preventative of crime and
disaster by flood and flame our
night watch is certainly a success.

of paying physicians only while
the patient is in health, let us
hope that Lou will go on earning
his salary for many years to come.

SENATOR VIII LIAM WARNER

After q scrap between mere pol
iticians, the republicans Of Mis-.
souri, have done the right thing
and have settled upon a states
man, Maj. William Warner Of
Kansas City, as United States
senator from Missouri. Major
Warner has been for years one of
the leading minds of Missouri.
He was brave soldier and he has
shown himself a brilliant leader in
times of peace. His advent into
the Senate will mark a new era
for his state and will place the
new progressive Missouri in step
with its northern neighbors.
Major Warner is an uncle OF
Mr.. Matt Mill and Of Mrs. w. r.
Temple of this city. Warner
Temple is his namesake. Our
Denison friends have every reason
to be proud Of their kinsman and
Denison is to be congratulated
upon having still another tie that
binds it to the National Capitol.
The following is the brief biogra-
ply of the newly elected senator
as given by the Associated Press:
Mai. William Warner, practiced
law in Kansas City since 1865
and is one Of the leading mem
bers of the bar in the southwest.
He is United States senator for
the western district of Missouri.
Mr.. Warner was born in Wiscon-
sin in 174o and was educated at
Lawrence university, Wisconsin,
and at the University of Mich
gan. He served through the civ
i war with the Thirty-third and
Forty-fourth Wisconsin regi-
ments. Represented the Fifth
Missours district in congress from
1885 to 1850. He was the first
department commander of the
Grand Army in Missouri, and in
1888 was elected national COM
mander- in chief. Mr.. Warner
was offered the position of com
missioner Of pensions by Presi
dent Roosevelt upon the resigna
ton of Commissioner Ware, but
declined and entered the race fol
the senate. He is an earnest
supporter of President Roosevelt
and his policies.

President Roosevelt is proving
himself not only a great President
but since the days Of Benjamin
Franklin no man has given the
American people such plain-spok
en-, commonsense advice The
President makes many speeches
but whether before Mothers Con
crosses, or Sons Of St. Patrick he
always has something note-wor-
thy, something striking, patriotic
and helpful to say.

AGREAT SECRETARY OF STATE

ll is with greatest regret that
the American people will learn OF
the illness ofSecretary John Hay.
That the illness was caused by
over-work. and that work the
most effective ever done by any
secretary Of state Of this republic,
but adds to the general sorrow.
There can be no question but
that Secretary Hay deserves rank
with the greatest diplomats the
world has known. If is matter of
wholesome pride that for the past
few years the diplomacy of the
world has been guided by the
policy of the simple American,
John Hay. He has been more
potent in the council OF nations
than any king or potentate.
We once had the great pleasure
of meeting Secretary Hay. 1t
was at the entrance to the White
House, Senator Dolliver introduc
ed US. 1t was characteristic OF
Mr.. Hay that no sooner had he
learned that we were publishing a
newspaper in Iowa than he at
once began telling of his expert
ences as the publisher of paper
in an Indiana town. In a few
moments we were visiting away
like to old prints at an editorial
convention. The conversation
was brief. Mr.. Hay was on his
way to a cabinet meeting, but af-
ter that few minutes talk we fell
better acquainted with the mar
than with many men with whom
we have had hours Of intercourse
Perhaps just here is one Of the
secrets of John Hays wonderful
success, that he has the gift o
projecting his own mind into thu
minds and the thoughts of Others
and placing himself at once on
footing of sympathy and commo1
interest. Mr.. Hay is remark
able man, a man who has bee,
successful in every field he has en-
tered, not exactly the kind of
man you would want to slap 0,
the back and call "John," but
man of infinite charm, sincerit
and tact, who challenges imme
) diate and enduring respect an
s admiration; 1t is profoundly t
Q be hoped that the sea voyage an
rest will be of great benefit to hill
and tflas he may return again t
the direction of American policie
during the ticklish times that ar
; ahead of all nations in the settle
ment of the many problems grow
ing out of the Russo Japanese wa

time, rather sup againt it, for
fire protection, and something
should be done in the matter
without delay. 1t is not ques-
ton Of appliances or apparatus,
for the city possesses a water sys-
tenn and equipment which many
another town of more preten-
tions would be proud to own,
but there is no provision made
for men to do the work and, in
case of fire, the facilities would
be of little use without COM
petent men to take the lead and
have full charge. Heretofore this
matter has been in the hands of
a fire board, an organiza-
tion sustained by the county,
but as it was hardly just that
the taxpayers in general should
be made to pay for the protec-
ton Of Silver City property in
particular, the new board of
commissioners have done away
with it, and now the city must
look out for itself. AS near as
can be ascertained, the material
at the disposal of the city con-
sists Of 500 feet of hose, three
quarter barrel of soda, nine gal
Ions OF acid, 43 leather buckets,
two hooks, one chain hood, five
hydrants, a 20,0O0-gallon water
tank on the mountain and water
mains over the principal por-
ton OF the city which, with the
possible addition of a hose cart,
with what hose to be required,
would be sufficient apparatus to
fill the requirements of Silver
City for years to come. In the
hands OF a drilled fire company
this material should be ample to
control any fire which is liableto
occur. The expense would be
nominal, probably amounting
to no more than the salary Of
one man to have charge, as there
are always plenty Of volunteers
to make up a company. 1t is
very essential, however, in the
organization of a fire company
that it has cool-headed leader,
a man who has had experience in
this kind of work, who could also
have charge Of the apparatus at
all times and keep everything in
working order, and it is only just
that such a man should receive a
fair compensation.
