As a result of the recent investiga- tion in the agricultural department, Secretary Wilson has issued two off cial orders with a view to preventing a repetition of the scandals. The first provides that employees shall not have any connection with firms, corpora tions or companies from whom the de pertinent buys or to whom it awards contracts; but it is the second which is causing lamentation among the em- ployes. It provides that no officer shall perform or be engaged upon work for other companies or institutions. It has been the custom of great num- Der of the employees to engage in out side work which their connection with the government work, the information and materials it furnished and the spe- cial training 1t afforded made possible and which frequently doubled the sal ary paid by the government. That thic work was done in time paid for by the government was accepted as a matter of course. The nsw rule will cut this out and reduce the income of a large number.

TUESDAY, NOV T, 1905.

Paymaster General of the Navy Harris is whacking away at the red tape in the pay department and has al- ready eliminated few miles of it. Business before the department that formerly took a fortnight to transact is now concluded in three or four days and the time saved the government employees he estimates is worth S100,- 900 or about one-third the annual cost of maintaining the bureau. And this is not the only result for by cutting red tape contractors may be paid promptly for their work and by elim- mating the delay government con- tracts become more attractive and greater competition and lower prices result. The government is a good GUS toner but many big contractors fight shy of it because of the appalling amount of red tape that is sunwound before any business can be acted upon or any money paid out.

A movement among commercial men of New York to hold convention in Washington for the purpose of recom- mending legislation looking toward a better consular service for the United States is a worthy one. The state de partment is fond of announcing that we have the best, the most capable, the most reliable and the most ener- getic men in our consular service of any nation in the world, but the busi- ness men of the country know better, says a Washington writer. Both Ger many and England have a better con sular service and the growth almost unparalleled Of German commerce has been in no inconsiderable part due to the men she appoints as her consular agents. These men are selected for their fitness for the posts, their com mercial knowledge, for their tact and for their ability to speak the language of the country to which they are sent, and not for any political reason or from any ''pull'' they may have. The day of the consular service being used as a refuge for political pensioners has not fully passed and until it has our consular service will be in need of i'm pavement

annual report. The need for special training for body of men to become engineers in the navy has been advo- cated for long time That the navy is crippled for want of engineers is well known in the department but the official utterance of the engineer in chief of the navy calls it to the atten- tion of the public. The personnel bill passed by congress is responsible for the lack of trained engineers, for by merging the corps of engineers into the line of the navy the whole corps of specialists was abolished and their du- ties transferred to the line. For three years nothing has been done by the younger line of officers in qualifying specially for engineering and Admiral Rae asserts that the situation is alarm ing. He proposes plan for quickly supplying the navy with engineers, which provides that all the younger officers must be given engineering duty and to rank engineering in the exam nations with seamanship, navigation and gunnery. It further provides for engineering specialists whose duty shall be engineering and who shall not perform sea duty after reaching the grade of commander. What a wei come such proposition will receive in the navy department is not hard to guess. This department more than any other is fossilized and though in naval affairs progress means constant change the navy department regards with odium any effort to introduce new ideas or customs.

MODEL YOUNG MEN.

There is nothing a young man can not do if he sets d. standard for him self whether he will succeed or not. That is, provided he is unattached. If there is a wife or someone dependent upon him he may have to carry load up the hill but even so if he has the indomitable will to accomplish what he sets out for it is nine chances out of ten that he will get there.
 It all depends upon that will force. He must have character, stamina. health and clear conscience, and be can climb to any height. There will be obstacles in his path. but the hard er he tries to push them aside the cas- fer it will be after awhile to walk through them without a scratch.
 People of influence are looking out for this kind of boy to take their places and are glad to help them along SO that they can be fitted when the right time comes. They well know when a fellow has things to discour- age him and will watch to see how he faces it and what he makes out of it. It Is. to them. test of character. If he conquers he can be trusted to WeAE AEHdItf Nutl&~- Aflu NUE NtFN responsibility that would break down a weaker nature will be the thing that will make of the stronger one a being towering above his fellows.
 But there are enemies lying in wait for just such. The very fact that they are strong seems to be in the way to success for in their pride they fail tO see that they have weaknesses in com mon with those they despise. There may lHe an inherited taste of liquor which will crop out when least ex- pectef. and the first glass that seemed sO harmless is like putting a match to powder and all the good works of the past years gO up in a flash. They become a slave to tobacco. If they are ensIavei to anything. they are no longer masters of self. and it Is the man who masters himself frSt that Ia able to master fate.

At no previous time in the history of the United States has there been so much uncertainty preceding a congress sional session with reference to the legislative proceedings. Party lines ap- pear to zigzag in every direction. Ma son and Dixon's line appears to be in a state of oscillation. A republican ad- ministration will have strong demo cratic support in the house and fin the senate. Some republicans in both houses will oppose the president if they dare to do SO. On the tariff question. on reciprocity, on railroad rate legislation and on almost every national question. the administration will have support from sections of the country that have heretofore been un- friendly. All signs indicate that party lines will be to a great extent disre- garded. Why should there continue to be usrty lines if results of greater ben eft to the entire country can be at- tafneH without themE Those who think alike. whether they reside east or west of the Ohio river. or north or south of the Mason, and Dixon line. should vote together.

CANNOT INTERFERE
President Asked to Protest
 Russian Massacres.
NO ACTION BY GOVERNMENT NOW.
Roosevelt Expressed Great Sympathy to Former Minister straus For Russian Sufferers by Outrages.
 Witte, Too, Is Powerless.

WASHINGTON, Nov. I. = Oscar Straus, former minister to Turkey, paid visit to the president to discuss with him the Jewish massaeres in Russia. The president indicated to him that, while he regretted these horrors, the United States government could take no action in the matter
 Secretary Root had a conference with the. president shortly. after MT. straus called. This statement was subse- quently given out:
 oscar Straus called upon the presi- dent not to ask him for action, but to consult with him as to whether there was any possibility of action which would result fin mitigation of the hor- TOTS connected with the massacre of the Jews in Russia.
 The president stated that. of course. he had been watching with the deepest concern the reports of those massa- cres; that he had been appealed to within the last few weeks to try to take some action, not only on behalf of the Jews in Russia. but on behalf of the ArmeniaRs. Poles and Films.
 "The result of the presidents in quiries coincided with statements con tained in cable from M. witte to Ja- cob H. Schiff. shown the president by Mir. Straus. as follows:
 The government is horrified at these outrages. You know that less than any one do not sympathize with such savage outbreaks. All I can do to stop the disorders is done. but as the country is in such an excited state the local authorities are often power | less
 ''In the conditions of social disorder which actually exist in Russia the president does not see that any action can be taken by this government at present which will be of any beneft to the unfortunate sufferers. for whom be feels such keen sympathy
