still a fact, however. that the feeling of
resentment exists TO a considerable ex-
tent among the people and as long as
this is the case Germany and other
commercial competitors will have an ad-

This is the situation which the au-
thorities at Washington must consider

THE LID MUST BE TAKEN OFF

The election of Charles Leslie to the
Office of county judge cannot be inter
preted as an endorsement of the keep
it-dark methods that have prevailed for
years in the probate branch OF the
county judges Office. The remonstrance
registered by The Bee during the recent
campaign against the nomination and
election of Charles Leslie was neither
frivolous nor inspired by personal spleen
or malice, but solely for the public good.
We believe we voice the sentiment Of
the great mass of citizens of Douglas
county, regardless of party or creed, in
demanding that the lid be taken off
and daylight let into the inner recesses
of the county court. The people want
to know and have a right to know all
about every official transaction in the
| administration of heirship properties.
They want to know in. what manner the
court has exercised its authority in the
| selection and appointment of guardians
what allowance has been made. If any,
| to these various administrators for their
services, and in what manner the court
has finally adjudicated the claims of
creditors and heirs of each estate. In
| other words, they want TO know how
much the rats have eaten into the pro-
! bate cheese. and whether the orphans
| and widows who are under the guar
/ dianshlp of the court are getting a
! square deal.
They win insist and have a right to
| insist upon full publicity of the amounts
of money that have from time to time
come into the custody of the county
Judge and where these moneys have
/ been deposited or loaned They have
right to demand and insist that every
dollar of interest derived from the farm
ing out of the funds in the custody of
the judge shall be paid to it's rightful
owners or TO the county. Court officers
have no more right to appropriate in
terest upon public or private funds than
city, county or state treasurers. The
people have right to insist that Judge
Vinsonhaler shall account for and turn
into the county treasury every dollar
of fees collected by himself or his clerks
under any preteXt. The law fixes the
salary of the county judge at $500 a
year. and all fees collected by him and
not expended for legitimate clerk hire
should be deposited in the county treas
ury.
II is an open secret, as we'll as a mat
ter of record, that systematic petty
graft has been practiced by the subordi-
mates Of the county judge under pretext
that his clerks were entitled to extra
pay for extra services, when, as a mat
ter of fact the services performed are
paid for by the county. All these abuses
call for a searching investigation which
the Board of County Commissioners
should institute before Judge Vinson-
haler turns over the Office to his sue
cessor. If the commissioners have no
authority to make such investigation by
reason of defects in the law, then the
people will demand an investigation by
grand jury. The lid must come off
the county court and must be kept of
hereafter.

FAroRs BUSINESS METHODS.


President Roosevelt has shown that
he has no regard for the red tape"
methods which have long prevailed In
the executive departments of the gov
eminent. He believes that these meth
DDS have operated to the detrlment of
the public service and that there is no
good reason for continuing them. They
have clogged and INSTRUCTED the work
Of the departments, delayed business
and created a system which is distinctly
hostile to progress and thus serves TO
impair the efficiency OF the public serv-
Ice. While absolute thoroughness and
accuracy are Of course essential in every
department and bureau it is yet easy to
understand that the red tape practice
which the president is seeking to modify
or wholly do away with is productive Of
more or less waste of, time, and even
neglect of duties, on the part of govern
ment employees. An official or clerk
upon whom a certain task is devolved
has no difficulty under existing condi-
tons in finding excuses for delay and
taking the departments as a whole the
loss of time thus occasioned is very
great.
The president appointed what is
known as the Keep commission for the
purpose of investigating the business
methods in the several departments and
recommending whatever reforms the
commission should deem to be desirable
or necessary in the interest of more ex-
peditious and efficient work in the pub
lie service. This commission is still pur-
suing the work for which it was created
and will probably submit a report be-
fore the meeting of congress, so as to
enable the president to acquaint con-
gress with the conditions which he
wishes to have remedied. The Washing
ton correspondent of an eastern paper
says: "The truth is that the greater
part of the restrictions placed upon gov
eminent business methods originated in
congress. That body. therefore, must
finally be looked to for a remedy. If the
head of a department desires to adopt
shortcut methods, such as would be EN-
| ployed by any frst-class business house
in the country, he finds himself held up
| by some law that congress has passed.
The auditors of the various departments
and the comptroller of the treasury fully
earn their salaries in keeping track Of
all the restrictive laws which congress
has passed regulating public business
There is scarcely a voucher for the pay.
ment of a few dollars that reaches their
desks that does not require them to
search the revised statutes for every
| legal paragraph bearing upon that par.
ticular business"
This is manifestly a condition which
needs correction and the effort which
the president is making to institute
methods in the departments and bu
reaus which will expedite business and
increase efficiency will be approved by
the country. The steadily growing bust
ness of the government imperatively de
pands a change in the methods under
which the business Is conducted. The
president is entirely right in the opinion
that there is no necessity for so much
red tape and that the public business
can be carried on Just as efficiently and
with equal safety without it.

Some very learned men argue that bust
ness conducted on enormous scale cannot
be made subject TO law.
Statutes" says President Butler OF Co
lumbia college, will not put moral princi-
pies where they do not exist"
Maybe not.
But there are some things that right
statutes rigidly applied can DO.
They can put some of the business violat-
ors of moral principles in jail.
Maybe statutes can't put moral principles
in man, but they can put the man withN
out moral principles out of business.
1t is quite probable that moral principles
cannot be put in the big grafters by statute
or any other means.
But II the statutes are properly enforced
the big grafters may cease grating and do
some plain living and hard thinking in a
place provided by statute for that purpose
This would be good for business, IL not
good for the big grafters.
1t might not put moral principles in the
men, but It would put moral principle in
future methods !.
Statutes in themselves can accomplish
nothing. But, rigldly enforced, they car
make even the manipulation of millions
humble and tractable.

TO SUPPRESS SLANG.
Move 90 Check the Circulation of a
FIavoring Substance.
PittshtfrR Gazette

The Anti-Sang society which has been
founded by University of Chicago purists
has undertaken a big task, but our hearth
est wishes go with II. II has a wide field
for endeavor and many opportunities, not
only for accomplishing much good, but
for making numerous mistakes. However
the good ii may do in removing some of
the vulgarity from the vernacular should
counterbalance any interference with the
natural, healthy growth of the language.
This has always been a vexed question,
the extent to which the use of slang is
permissible to educated persons. On the
one hand, we have the argument that with
out the constant introduction Of new words
the language cannot grow. On the other,
the academic plea for the preservation of
of slang point to classic literature for
justification. Shakespeare is full of COLO
quail English that had not yet received
the stamp of approval by polite society.
The slang of one generation is the good
English OF the next Very true but the
majority of modern slang expressions add
nothing to the language in the way of new
and useful words, as. for instance the
common phrases, mot in It" and up to
you" Most American slang is borrowed
from the race track and the gaming table.

srRrGGLE FOR oHrSA's TRADE


An active struggle for China's trade
is being made by European countries,
notably Germany, and it appears that
the energetic and enterprising mer-
chants Of that country are making
steady gains in the Chinese markets
Recent statistics show that a consid-
cradle amount of German capital has
within the last year been invested in
various industries in China and that in
other directions successful efforts have
been made TO secure trade. German
steamers are much in evidence in Chit
nese waters aud it is needless TO say are
a most valuable aid to the extension
there of the commerce OF that nation.
This competition must he met by
American manufacturers and merchants
and il is certain TO be found formidable.
At present this country is at a good
deal Of a disadvantage, owing to the re
sentiment Of the Chinese regarding our
exclusion policy. There seems TO be
some abatement of this feeling and II
appears that the imperial government

A Roll OF Honor.



One of the most interesting persons the
government at washington has had to deal
with for a long time is a millionaire who
recently gave 100000 for benevolent uses,
and now claims his old age service pen
sion Of IS to t12 a month under the execu-
tive order of March, 1904. He does not want
the money, of course but deems the pen
sion roll a roll Of honor. and desires to
perpetuate his record Of military service
as a much-prized bit of family history.
A good many other well-to-do veterans
who have passed the age of 81 years are
taking advantage of the service pension
order for similar reasons, and there may
be some who take the money simply be-
cause It is theirs for the asking.
