olD-IIME ELEcrIoNEERING.


The candidates trick of kissing the
babies to gain votes is not a new
thing. The determined candidate Of
the eighteenth century was as deeply
interested in all members of a voters
family as he is to-day. In William
Cowper's Letters. may be found a
description of the way things were
done more than a hundred years ago.
We were sitting yesterday at dinner,
the two ladies and myself, very COM
posedly and without the least appre-
hension Of any such intrusion In our
snug parlor, one lady knitting, another
netting, and the gentleman winding
worsted. Suddenly, to cur unspeakable
surprise, a mob appeared before the
window. A smart tap was heard at
the door, the boys halloed, and the
maid announced Mr.. Grenville. Candi-
dates are creatures not very suscepti-

pose, climb in at the window than be
absolutely excluded.

by the hand with a degree tf cordial

AS soon as he and as many more as
could find chairs were seated, he be-
gan to open the intent Of his visit. I
told him 1 had no vote, for which he
readily gave me credit. l assured him
/ had no influence, which he was not
equally inclined to believe.
Thus ended the conference. Mr..
Grenville squeezed my hand again,
kissed the ladies, and withdrew. he
kissed likewise the maid in the kitch-

THE A. p. a. AS A DIPLOMAT.

Eelvil1e +. Stone Estimates that the
Association Makes for Peace.
Inc Associated Press has been able
to usurp In large measure the func-
tons Of the diplomat, and 1 think it
makes for universal peace In re-
markable way. Instead of public ques-
tions now passing through the long
and tedious methods of diplomacy as
formerly, the story is told with author
ity by the Associated Press. The point
OF view of a country is presented no
longer by diplomatic communication,
but in the dispatches Of the Associated
Press.
A striking instance of this occurred
some months ago, when a japanese
war vessel went into the neutral har-
Dor Of Chifu and captured the Rychit-
elni, Russian gunboat which had
sought an asylum there. Our CORE
spondent was on the Rychitelni when
the japanese lieutenant and q detach-
ment arrived, and was a personal wit
peared throughout the civilized world,

tations by Russia, through her ally.

nese government prepared careful de-

and it closed the incident. They made
no effort, and distinctly said that they
would make none, to send an official
answer TO Russia on the subject
through the ordinary channels of d.

through the agency Of the Associated
Press.
The authorities of the foreign Of

Little Love Taps.

AZ one of the recent White House
receptions there was little case OF ra-
pier thrusting between two ladies, says
Lippincott's, and it was delightfully."- en-
tertaining to those who saw and heard.
There is famous nan in Washing
ton, one who came from the plain peo-
pie and who continues as one Of them.
He has a beautiful daughter Of aristo-
cratic tendencies, who has dug up a
family tree, somehow or other, and
who affects superiority which she does
not possess in any sense.
The wife of Congressman from a
Western State was introduced to the
young lady and pleasantly said:
Il have met with your distinguished
father, Miss"
II dare say" replied the young lady
languidly. Papa in his position meets
all sorts of people"
The Western lady flushed and fash
ed back instantly: 81 should suppose

ExTEMPoRIzIaG A CIPHER.

~~N~-S--~-r~-~~N~~~~-
When Wall street first caught the
fever for industrial combinations"
and began the reorganization of every
thing in sight, says the Brooklyn
Eagle, one Of the votaries of high
finance found himself in Chicago IN
extreme need of communicating with
his New York office
He had almost completed an ar
rangement for the consolidation of sew
eral Western enterprises, but in order
to get the final authority he needed
from New York, he must explain all
he had done by wire to his partners.
There was no time to write. He had
no cipher CODE For long time he
tried to think out some way to send
the information so that it would be
plain to his partners and meaningless
to any one else. His secret was a val
liable one, and. once sent over the wire
might be sold out to his rivals in Wall
street for large sum-
At last he decided to take the
chances in plain English. Accordingly
he wrote the message and gave it to
his assistant to send.
Half an hour later, when the assist
ant came back, he asked him If he had
sent 1t.
mot just that way" said the clerk
81 rewrote 1t, the first word on a
Postal blank, the second on a Western
Union, and so on. 1 sent half by each
company, and neither half meant any
thing Then i sent a second message
by one line, saying, Read both mes
sages together, alternating Words"
The scheme was too simple for the
high financier to have evolved, but it
worked perfectly.

Red tape is always associated with
the business methods of government,
whether in America or in other coun-
tries. Nearly every one who has had
dealings with Washington will testify
as to the tedious regulations which
must be observed and the vexatious
delays which exhaust the patience of
those who have to do with the depart
ments. The President, who, by tenn
permanent, has no sympathy with un-
necessary conyentionalities, and who
desires always to see work done in the
quickest and most effective way, has
appointed a commission of five men,
selected from four of the executive de-
partments, to investigate the govern
ment methods of doing business, and,
if possible, to discover and recommend
better ways. In private business red
tape practices are killed off by compe-
tition; for, other things being equal,
the firm which does its work in the
most direct and economical way has
an advantage. In government business
competition plays no part and, as a
rule, has no influence; and custom as
sumes an undue Importance. The re-
suit is tendency, characteristic Of all
departments of the public business, to
become clogged with rules and entan-
gled in petty details, to the great detri-
ment both Of speed and Of economy.
