THERE is reflected in the public press today an
analytic criticism that will be remembered for years
to come Formerly where bare statement Of fact
suficed to express ones opinion against an abuse OF
the publics confidence, there is a. tendency to-
ward the prolific Of adjectives which the adj
verse from being eulogstic or ornate. This criticism
is not rambling but deliberate and to the point; it
calls thief a thief, and an unprincped rascal just
what he merits
There is no question but what much of the crit
to hysteria and in some cases it is due to the
for popuarty-to be in the limelight with those OF
commanding personality. No doubt there many
wrongs deserving of castigation, but it is not
sary to go bushwhacking thru the dictionary for
biting adjectves in order to set the world agog. It
is an easy thing to find fault. Some would rather
hurl vtuperaton than speak word of commenda-
ton. It has been so in all ages. Envy and malice
are always working sixteen hours day, and they
even regret the time in which they must don their
nightcaps.
There time when Henry Watterson was
considered the dean among the users Of caustic adj

Bug Opportunities.
In AN address before the students of the Univer-
sity of Minnesota Mr.. j. F. johnson, dean of the
College of Commerce of New York City, spoke on
Business Education" In speaking of the opportu-
mites for young man in the commercial world he
remarked: "There in this country hundreds of
$4,000 positions looking for men: there are $50 600
jobs clamoring for men to Fill them. Employers are
looking everywhere for employees to take up high
salaried work. and they cannot find them anywhere
You must start at the bottom even if you have
business education"
Mr.. Johnsons optimistic remarks does not in
dictate that the age of great opportunities has gone
by, as the agitator would have believe For the
man who is conscientious who is looking out for his
employers interest, who is honest and energetic,
there will always be remunerative work. But for the
man who is Indifferent and careless, who takes more
interest in the baseball than he does in his
ployers business who is absorbed in stock quota
tons and the ponies and is daily building air castles
on the 'if's" and 'buts', for such man there is
little hope of reaching of these grand prizes
Such man devotes too much time to probabilities
to be success at the work he is engaged in. Each
edge of important things that it is absolutely
sary to be in close touch with.
Is it likely that Thomas A. Edison would be the
great inventor that he is if he had continually kept
dope sheet of the and the markets in his desk?
This "side line" is the anchor that is holding back
many good man who is in line for promotion He
He knows more about "Met." and II. O." than he
knows about his employers business. Perhaps this
is why SO many of these big positions remain unful-
filed.

Tuberculosis Prisoners.

ZUbe7cuLOllS Prisoners.
MASSACHUSETTS, now has a state hospital for tu-
bercuous prisoners It received it's first patient
about ten days ago.. The state purchased several
years ago thousand acres in Rutland and prison
camp has been constructed there. There are accom-
modatons for one hundred sick men, doctors, nurses
and other employees. Under act of 1905 it was
provided that when the buildings were ready the
prison commissioners might remove thereto "any
male prisoner in the state prison. the Massachusetts,
reformatory, the state farm any Jail house Of
correction who appears by the certificate Of the prs
on physician to be suffering from consumption or
any disease of tubercular nature" Az far as is
practicable the prisoner sent to the prison hospital
will receive the same treatment as is given at the
Rutland state sanatorium.-New York Tribune

DOGS on the Force.


New YORK CRY is adopting unique method
in connection with her police department. The off,
Gals have imported number of Belgian sheepdogs to

of work, the animals being trained to act almost like
human beings; frequently they display sagacty
that is marvellous In Belgium these dogs trained
to perform wonders in tracking suspects and said
that they seldom make mistake.
However, it remains to be seen whether the po-
lice in New York City as successful with these
clever dogs as the officials abroad. 1t requires
considerable patience and skill to train one of these
anmals for, while they may inherit their intelligence
to track persons much depends the training they
receive to make them valuable Some states in this
country have used dogs in capturing criminals with
varying results, but none of them have developed
the idea SO highly the Belgians. Over there the
so-called police dog receives much attention as

to the work by competent persons, and the result s

The Billboard Nuisance.

In recent years the matter of the
iisfiguration of the landscape by Glli'
| boards and great advertising signs has
received much attention. and in many
cases a great deal has been done to
mitigate this nuisance. There is much
more to be done. however as all are
painfully aware who travel by rail OF
who frequent the country highways
This problem of the billboard nuisance
will he one Of the chief questions to be
| considered at Providence. r. l., next
| month when the Natiol4ai Municipal
| a.ue holds itss annual convention in
connect ton with the annual meeting OF
| the American Civic Association.
In some states. including ol- own
steps have been taken by leg lation to
prevent the Disagreement OF the Seem
cry by painting advertising signs upon
rocks and fences along the country
and buildings. The billboard nuisance
is 2 matter which concerns the suburbs
of our cities NOR. Than the country sec
tions aud at tt" conventions men,
toned above these int, r":.t"d in mu-
nicipal impro> cment win seek TO devise
success ful method IF c..,iying on the
warfare Thus far the wOmen's clubs
hav,. been the chief factor in the fight
against these billboards. for the women
have both a keener aesthetic sense and
a larger degree of local patriotism than
the men. but it is unchivalrous. to say
the. least. 10 allow the chief burden o.
such crusade to remain upon their
shoulders.
The president of the National
Municipal League. i'll speaking of the
coming convention, says: "Those who
are working for the Improvement of
oar cities are realizing that they can
not achieve the city beautiful SO long
a the highways and fences are filled
with Objectionable advertising. which
il an offence to the eye. Il detriment to
the appearance of the city and a men,
ace to its morals Ply all means let
the agitation go on. 1t has been par
tally victorious in some places and the
pros pect is bright that much more can
b. accomplished. In the city of Gin
cirndti. for instance over 600 billboard
advertisers have agreed to drop this
patronage and to help rid the city OF
til" uusichtly billboards. 1t does not
seem at al! unrcas enable to expect that
the business men of other cities can be
induced To follow the good example Of
those in Cincinnati.
