Women In Venice.

In Venice, says the Ladies' Realm,
the women Of the lower classes accept
tributes to their beauty from perfect
strangers as a matter Of course. It Is
considered not only proper, but polite,
to compliment a passing maiden on the
charm Of her beautiful eyes or COM
plexion. If one treads on the skirt Of
a pretty woman, one has only to say,
pardon. beautiful girl" to receive the
most dazzling smile and bow in return
for the awkwardness. At cafes fire.
quented by the people it is the custom
for walters to say when placing a
chair for one of the women, "Take this
seat, beautiful blond" or, "Sit here,
lovely brunette" as the case may be.

DON'T WANT MACHINE POLITICS.

The reform which President
Roosevelt and Postmaster Gene
raj Cortelyou are introducing in
the appointment of postmasters
is noteworthy and highly CON-
mendable. William E. Curtis, in
the Record-Herald, explains the
new regulations at length, and
shows that hereafter weight is to
be given to the opinions of the
patrons of the post office, rather
than to the opinions of senators
and representatives. Postmasters
will be allowed their full political
liberty as thinking and voting
citizens, but activity in machine
politics will hurt them rather than
help them at Washington.
Beyond question the new sys-
tenn, effectively applied as it will
be by the postmaster general, will
greatly improve the efficiency of
the postal service. Senators and
representatives will continue to
complain, but mails will be more
capably handled. and at less cost
to the government.

The CITY DOES NOT WANT IT.

The principal topic of CONVEX
sation of the thinking people this
week has been the proposed tele-
phone ordinance. We say tele-
phone advisedly, for nobody has
any idea that the electric light
and power part of the ordinance
is anything more than a club to
win the desired telephone con-
cession.
A draft of the ordinance has
been in Dickinson for months but
those entrusted with its passage
had kept the matter very quiet
and for reasons best known to
themselves did not bring it to
light until after Alderman Hill
lard had gone to Florida. The
plain statement of the facts in the
PRESS last week was the first init
nation the people had Of the
matter, and the ordinance had
then already received its first and
second reading. However, the
adjourned meeting, which was to
have been held the last of the
week, did not materialize A
number of alderman discovered
that they had been misled in the
matter, and public sentiment
rapidly crystalized against any
hasty action, and especially
against a thirty-year franchies,
carrying a maximum light rate OF
Shopper month for the ordinary

telephone in residences and 50
in business houses, and optional
with the company to install any
or none of the enterprises covered
anytime during the thirty years
or never.
Alex Mckenzie and 1. P.
Baker, owners of the Interstate
Electric Light & Telephone Co.,
r nice gentlemen to meet; but
they are not practical telephone
men and would not come to
Dickinson to reside if the city
was to give them a dozen fran
chises. They want the franchise
for some other purpose, They
have secured franchises at Bis
marck and Mandan and it is very
evident that they hope to put the
the local companies out of bust
ness, for it is certain that two
systems cannot pay, and no city
wants dual telephone service, as
it forces all business men to buy
from two concerns.
On the other hand, A. H. Del
tiers and Ed. Hughes own the
local exchange and electric light
plant. They are practical men in
their line, and MI. Deiters resides
here with his family and takes his
coat of every day and puts in as
many hours of hard, honest work
as any man in the city. Mr..
Deiters is constantly improving
the service and is giving his Gus
toners very fair rates and is try
ing to give everybody a square
deal.
Our people are willing that
Banker Baker or anyone else
should have a long distance tele-
phone if they desire it, but they
do not wish to legalize non-resi-
dents to come in and wreck a
