PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT'S CABINET
BRUCE coRTELYou, POSTMASTER GENERAL.
Ey II. Gibson Gardner,

stan Correspondence of the News
paper Enterprise Association.
WASHINGTON, March 10.-"Seest
thou man diligent in his business.
lie shall stand before king."-Pro-
verbs xii 90.
In the career of no public man is
the lesson of diligence in business so
well illustrated as IN that of George
Bruce Cortelyou, chosen by the presi-
dent to- fill the high office of post
master general. No career better
illustrates the opportunities for le-
ultimate success open to the deserve
ing young man. No record is more
satisfactory to contemplate in the
absence of mere luck" and the pres
ence of just rewards proportional to
earnest efforts.
1t is safe to say that the founda-
tions of his successful career were
laid on the tombstones of his earliest
ambitions. Cortelyou thought he was
a born musician. and it was his dream
to stand with his back to the audi
ence and WELD the baton over a COM
pany of musicians.
OF which dream there remains but
pompadour, closely trimmed, and
a habit Of banging the piano in the
rest" from work.
1t is known that the new post
master general was a clerk in the
postoftice department, less than n
dozen years ago, drawing a salary of
5000 a year. II is known that he
was a secretary to President Cleve-
land before he served republican ex-
ecutives. II is known that he was
Mr.. McKiuley's right hand and arm,
ever present, ever cool, ever practical
and adequate. Then he served the
present executive with equal credit.
Next he was chosen to organize the
newly created department Of com
merce and labor, becoming the first
secretary of that new cabinet port
folio. Then he was called to a new
role, that of chairman of the republic
can national committee, and manager
Of the Roosevelt campaign.
No clerk ever worked harder than
the republican national chairman did
during the last five weeks of this
campaign. He was at his office early
and never completed his daily task
before II or - at night All letters
directed to him went through his
hands. and practically every letter
was answered. He worked methodi-
cally always. ard without any wasted
energy. The machinery of the cam
paign moved like the business of a
trust company. Every dollar was ac-
counted for, and he knew where every
dollar went. From the first few
weeks the pack of grafters who are
the regular attendants of a campaign
headquarters, dwindled, and finally

of the best men in the service.
Though Greene and Gaynor en-
ploy three detectives to keep them
informed, it was not until weeks had
elapsed that they became aware of
the presence of the Washington men.
Then they kept closer to their
houses. For a week Gaynor had
been hobnobbing around the Cha

dams and to respect the property
rights of those who possess water
power privileges at the time the law
takes effect.
The most striking thing about the
bill is that no compensation whatever
is to be made to the state for the
grant. of this almost limitless
power. But this does not constitute
the only objection to the bill. The
possibilities for the abuse Of this vast
power are exceedingly great. Dis
examinations of the rankest kind
could be made against individuals
and against communities in comforting
water power privileges without the
slightest restraint. EXorbitant tolls
could be levied as result OF the
provision which permits 10 per cent
profit above all expenses Of operation
and maintenance. No limitation is
placed upon these expenses. Ridicu-
lousy large salaries could be paid to
the officers of the company; fictitious
improvements which would be a
source of great personal gain to the
promoters could be arranged for; the
whole business Of the corporation
could be manipulated SO as to make it
veritable gold mine for the COM
pany. And in addition to these gains,
aScribed to cooperating" expenses the
corporation Is entitled to net profit
of 10 per cent upon the whole invest
ment.
The rights granted are too valuable
to be given away. The possibilities
OF abuse too many. The power is toe
great to be used for private gain.
The bill should be defeated without
fail. Journal.

they had decided to go into the

spring stock that they had bought
to sell at retail, to their regular trade
which has been on the increase from
year to year, there is shoes of all
descriptions, for men, women, Misses
and children in tan, black, patent
leather, low shoes and high shoes.
One thing we noticed in particular
was that the goods were all bought
from manufacturers who make a
speciality Of certain kind of footwear,
all their goods are bought direct from
manufacturers and not from Chicago
jobbing houses, there is shoes from
Lynn and Brockton, Mass, Columbus
and Lancaster, Ohio, Adamsdale, Pen

Rochester, N. Y, Grand Rapids, Mich.
St. Paul, MIMI, Racine, Sheboygan,
Milwaukee, Wis.,, and elsewhere. In
fact it is the largest and best assort-
ment of reliable footwear that has ever
been shown in this part of the state
Mr.. Muir informs us that tan and
chocolate cOlored low shoes will be all
the go this season, and that by April
10th. that their stock will be complete
in these goods. No use sending out
of town for footwear when there is
such stock to select from. Their
prices seem extremely low for the
good class Of goods they are handeling.
