Red Tnne Must Go.

chicago Record-Herald
 President Roosevelt proposes to in- troduce the best modern business prac- tice" into all the executive departments of the Government. He has appointed a special Investigating committed, with Assistant Secretary of the Treasury Charles H. Keep as chairman, to make a thorough study of official red tape" in all it's forms and report on ways and means of eliminating it. Red tape" is disease that Is apt to attack Govern -' ment service of all kinds in every coun- try. It Is not the worst disease. by any means to which off1cialdom is liable, but 1t Is bad enough. With the phrase of master President Roosevelt says of the red tapist: These people really care nothing for the case, but only for the documents in the case" He proposes to introduce a different spirit. if he has to rattle all the bones in all the depart ments to do 1t. They are good lines of reform that he suggests. on the face of them. StandardIzing of supplies for all departments, uniformity of salaries on the basis of service in all depart ments, up-to-date bookkeeping as sim pie IS is consistent with accuracy and safety, a thorough system of cost keeping" between the different depart ments and less useless letter writing are some of these suggested.

IF WE COULD BE THERE,

They are going to have a real old time fddling contest over in Fort Gaines to celebrate Independence Day. and we predict that there'll be some high jinks pulled off on that occasion. The Recorder publishes the regula- tions governing the contest. and Rule l reads: NO Violinist will be admit ted. only Ffddlers."
 That rule Is the right word in the right place. ''Violinist" will do for Koobeluck or any other of the long haired foreigners who scrape the bow over a violin and give birth to what behind genuine fddling as the wailing of a cat is behind the trill of the nightingale That sort of term may fit that brand of operator. but for the man and woman whose musical taste runs in natural channels the only word is ''fiddBer." That goes straight to the heart or some other appropriate place, and 1t Is right that the judges have barred violinists. They can saw the rat-gut in the gilded music halls. or the glitterfng parlors of the rich, but to the man or woman who appreciates real music. the fiddler is the man. Just seat him in a suitable seat, let him stick the butt of his worp fiddle un- der his chin and draw the horse-hair across the cat-gut and-oh, yum, yum! Nothing but the stinfened joints of doddering old age or a cannon-ban tied to the ankles can keep the man or
 
 sounds begin to come forth. When khe fiddler fastens his chin on the butt of his fiddle, closes his eyes and starts in on one of the old tunes-not s.pieces'-the youth of either sex who Iaoesn't need to be held down is lack ing somewhere in the material make up.
 We are pleased. also. to note that the committee discourages what Is called classical music and expresses a pref erence for old-timers. Those who want to pay their money to hear Violinist scrape forth sounds that neither himself nor any hearcr can make sense of can do so, but the per- son of unvitiated taste and ear wants 10 near a pAdg 6Sa@hcA Brooches" Billy in the Low Grounds" Devils Dream" or some other real . tune that hits you where you live. like e mint julep. puts ginger in the feet of the lads and lassies. and makes the gray-haired sires and mothers feel as if old Father Time had reversed his engines and had rolled back the years till those whose joints refuse to bend feel as if they could cut the pigeon wing for a little provocation.
 We know 1t will be a great and stirring occasion and we hope Editor Greene will give a full account of it, so that this writer may forget at least five decades of life and feel that he is listening to a real fiddler playing a real tune. And if any "violinist" butts in and wants to screech out some classical music. shoot him on the spot!

Statements from those in position to know whereof they speak go to show that the feeling of the Japanese sail ors towards Admiral Togo Is very sim liar to the feeling entertained by the army of Northern Virginia for General Lee--a feeling of love. respect and un- limited confidence. It was 'Marse Robert" with the Confederates and 1t Is Father Togo" with the Japanese When soldiers or sailors thus regard a commander, there is hardly anything impossible to them that human beings can accomplish.

If 1t is true that the selection of a left to Grover Cleveland, there can be no doubt of his making good. Re- member that cabinet he placed at the head of the departments twenty years ago!
 Such remarks are calculated to make some of the Hearst imitators. posing under the name of Democrat, throw a large and varied assortment of fits. It Is gall and worm wood to them to hear MT. Cleveland spoken well of, even when 1t is strictly bus mess matter. They all, from Hearts own organs down, fail to realize the force of the old advice about gnawing a file.

Real Heroes of War Times.

Atl9nta Journal.
 In every modern war but one the pro- portion of deaths among the medical officers has been greater than that among the combatants. In the French campaign against Constantine while every thirteenth combatant officer was killed, every sixth surgeon died In the Crimean war the mortality among the surgeons was 1S.2 per cent. and among the combatant officers 7.3. In the last Russian campaign prior to the present war 355 surgeons out of d total of 2.S39 died. In the Mexican expedi- tion (French) the mortality rate among the surgeons was about 20 per cent, while among the combatant officers |: was only about per cent. Here, then, all unheralded in the daily news of srea victories, are the real heroes Of WAT, who die not in an effort to kill, but to save lives He who would have cor rect estimate of war must look beyond the magnificent man on horseback and beyond the ranks of human targets that offer life for life to the quiet, unher- death and so often lose.

power that you can use in your barn

until started and all expense stops the
instant the power stops? An engine
that always goes no matter what the
weather conditions may be? II so, let
us tell you more about Ideal engines,
which are guaranteed for one year, and
sent out to responsible farmers on 10
days trial. We make specially OF
S II. p. engine that is adapted to farm
use. 1t costs but little more for gaso-
line to pump water with this engine
than il does with a smaller one, which
is of no practical use except for pump

wood and do any work requiring power
on the farm Ideal engine will be on
