CHOICE FOR NoM1NAr1oN TWO YEARS HENCE

II is somewhat amusing to note the Jealousy
that exists in the little group of statesmen VINO
have their political lightning rods elevated TO
catch the presidential bolt in 1908. These men
who aspire to the presidency are thoroughly
human and they watching each other like
hawks While for public consumption their words
and acts are altogether dlsinterested. in private
conversation they indulge in some pretty severe
criticisms of each other. There has been great
anxiety among these candidates to find out on
whom the administration favor would rest The
developments of the past few weeks seem to have
settled that point and 1t appears to be the
field against Secretary Taft. for the latter Is

THE NATIONAL EXPOSITION IDEA

Congress has become resigned to the national
exposition idea. 1t has gone so deep into these
enterprises in the past that every new proposition
to celebrate some great event by national ex
position is pretty certain to meet with support
and favor Preparations now under way for
a fair which is be the celebration of the found
ing of jamestown, the three hundredth anniver-
sary of which will occur next May. Speaker Can
non who is of an economical turn of mind tried
to check the granting of government aid to this
enterprise but national expositions are somewhat
in the nature of public buildings when 1t comes
to getting aid from congress. They made
part of a log rolling scheme and combinations are
formed that always insure the enterprises being
indorsed

WASHINGTON.-Under the new railway rate
law the interstate commerce commission becomes
a far important body than it ever was. 1t
is increased in size from five members to seven
members and the salaries have been raised from
81 500 to $4,000. The commission assumes the
importance of a high United States court It's
membership is only two less than the supreme
court of the United States and the salaries arc
equal to those drawn by the mine gentlemen In
black" The commission now has specific law
back of it giving its decisions force and 1t VIII
longer be a laughing stock as it had been Tor
some years because it had power to enforce
its decisions regarding railway rates. That ha:
all been cured now and when the commission
designaes a certain rate the latter goes into erect
and must be observed unless overthrow by the
courts.

MEN OF HIGHEST ABILITY AND INTEGRITY.

There is no doubt that the new law raises the
standard of the commission and in the .uture men
selected will have be of the highest ab"ty
and integrity. In the past this commission has
times been regarded as very convenient place
in which land some lame duck or political
has been who had failed of reelection to some
other public office For some years it had been
considered a convenient harbor of refuge Tor
politicians and regarded the legitimate
patronage of the big political leaders.
This has changed now and with the added re
sponsibllity provided for by the new law men of
the highest grade will have to be selected 1t is
fortunate that the members of the old commission
