css Anna may be secure from ap-
pearing any longer as the victim in
wife-b' ating episodes, and the whole
Gould family may rejoice at the
good radiance of bad rubbish in the

boys, as the Portland Oregonian
says:

An Impossible Role.

The Democratic party must get
on one side or the other if it hopes
to win. It cant be on both sides.
1t will have TO be either fish or
flesh. 1t Will have TO quit being
anti-corporatiop between times, and
tthen siding with the corporations
+ whenever they oppose Republican
! program. 1t must get rid of the
bosses and keep rid of them. The
Republican party can stand a meas
urable amount of bOssism and cor
porationism, and thrive. But the
Democratic party can't.
Just because it couldn't resist the
temptation to tie up with the rail
roads and get an easy campaign
fund, the Democracy lost Iowa this
year. The facts are now coming
out, and they are Illuminating.
Governor Cummins. Republican,
had incurred the hostility of the
RAILROADS, for many years unyarying
niles of Republicanism. When they
could not defeat his denomination.
the railroads went over to the Dem
ocrats. On the record of their pro-
testations in many. years of adver-
sity, the Democrats should have
scorned and rejected such advances.
But they didn't. They climbed into
the same political bed. For the
first time in near two decades the
campaign funds were on the Demo
cratic side. 1t looked bad for Gov
eTnor Cummins.
Before the campaign was half
over the leading Democratic paper
of the State bolted the Democratic
campaign. 1t had discovered that
the campaign was in charge of men
who had, a few months before, been
acting as delegates on behalf of the
railroads TO the packed convention
of the Interstate Commerce Law
convention, when the effort was
made to prove that there was no de-
mand for rate regulation. Chair

Wide Awake Dairymen.

Good business lies behind two re-
cent movements affecting the local
milk supply. One was the organiza-
ton OF a Dairymen's Association;
the other was recommendation TO
The Maryland State board of health
from the health officer of Montgom-
cry county that an inspection be
ordered of the milk produced within
his jurisdiction. The advantage
which reposes in both these pro-
-ceedings for the dealers is that
they look TO a certificatiOn of their
products and not 10 an inspection
-of them alone.
The milkmen share in the embar-
rassment of the District through
its inability TO reach the greater
number of dairy farms which serve
the Capital. All that the local Health
Officers can do is TO inspect the milk
.Nvhen it comes within the District
and make such inspections of stables
and springhouses as their Maryland
or Virginia owners may permit. As
Il rule the latter have shown every
disposition 90 cooperate, have
'dhrOwn open their dairies to Dis
sJrict officials without a shadow of
authority in Montgomery, Prince
lGeorge, Fairfax, or Alexandria coun-
~, have undertaken to fulfill in
every way the regulations as TO
shipments which the market here
requires.
But all this does not lessen the
benefit to the dairyman if he can
have his farms supervised as care
fully as his distributing agencies.
The more public confidence he can
obtain the more milk he can sell
and the news account OF the or
gaHizatien meeting of the new asso-
citation indicates that this is fully
understood. Among others things
1t says:
j was agreed at the meeting that the
members or the association shoald give
every assistance possible 10 the District
Health ONCE authorities in Kidding the
city Of impure or adulterated milk. and
set the standard higher than ever be
fore.
If the dealers are in earnest about
this they can help a great deal. If
Montgomery county's health officer
is in earnest he can help a great
deal also. The upshot then Will be
not SO much an improvement in the
milk supply, for the local regulation
keeps that well up to the standard,
tas am increased public satisfaction
that the supply is what it ought to
be. Which IS proof enough that
good business, as well as good citi-
tzenship, underlies any activity on
the part of the dairymen 10 get
more official and effective super
vision.

AUSTRIAN OFFICERS
ENVIED BY GERMAN

BERLIN, Nov. 26.-German officers are
now very envious of their colleagues in
Emperor Francis Joseph's army
The Austrian lieutenant may now
wear rubbers and spats If he likes. He
has been made happy by the relaxation
Of the rigid regulations that formerly
governed his attire when of duty as
well as on parade
Many of the little comforts and vGni-
ties INDUCED in by civilians are now
permitted TO the Austrian officer. In
stead of plain black blucher boots ne
may now wear laced shoes as brilliantly
polished as he likes. The height Of his
collar is no longer fixed by regulation.
The white channels gloves, which never
looked smart. may he discarded for
fashionable glace. The officer may also
suit his own taste in overcoats. and IL
he is short-sigIted he is allowed to wear
pince-nez instead of the traditional mon
ocle.
