Age and Service.

Nashville Banner.
 The disposition emphasized in recent years in theory. and to some extent in practice, to discredit the abilities of men advanced to middle life and be- yond so far as they relate to industrial and other active employment, and to magnify the advantages of employing g younger men simply because they are younger. is experiencing wholesome reaction. The Pennsylvania Railroad entering it's service from thirty-five to forty-five. This action Is taken evil dently in recognition of the fact that five the company has deprived itself of some of the very best and most efi- cient available material. and that a position to render excellent service for many years to come.
 The flood of talk, much of 1t critically humorous and some of 1t serious. over the alleged 'Osler theory" which Dr. Osler never advanced, has doubtless tended to encourage a popular idea that this has become essentially a young mans era. and that older men many of the activities of this great in- dustrial and commercial age. but while undoubtedly this is a period in which young men have exceptional oportuni- ties, the world is not vet ready to lay the older men on the shelf Indeed, the usefulness of men cannot be guag- ed by any nXed term or years or llIe . Some men become old before their time and many d man who has lived his three score and ten manifests vigor and capability for work that thousands of young men may well envy. The years come and go in their remorse- less course, making men older as they pass. but the inflrmities of age are not uniform in time or manner of their i'm pressions Some men seem to have been born old and some men seem to retain a youthfulness of spirit and ca pacity that contradicts their years.

SENATOR KNox's CANDIDACY.

Senator "PhiF' Knox of Pennsylvania Is in the lead for the Republican presi- dential nomination by xty-eight votes. There is. 1t is true. a string tied to these sixty-eight votes. The Pennsylvania convention endorsed the Senator, but that body did not elect delegates to the next national conven- tion The delegates will not be select ed until next year. There is room and | time here for a change of opinion. | Nevertheless, the Pennsylvania condi- date shows up at this time handsomely enough. Those office "critturs" scat tered through the South who assemble at intervals in the back room of a country store and pledge their support to Roosevelt are so entirely unrepre- sentative of any genuine public opin- ion. that no one of them could explain If called on precisely what they are trying to do. The similarity in the phrasing of the resolutions adopted by the "critturs,' shows bigger creature elsewhere. probably In Washington. is working them for purpose. Certain ly nobody attaches any importance to any expression of opinion on the Pres idency when uttered by a Southern Re publican.
 At the North, Uncle Joe Cannon has the endorsement of large number of Congressmen- elect of both parties who desire to retain or improve their conl- mittee assignments in the next House. Uncle Joe will continue to run well wi,h this crowd until he distributes his committee favors next December. Fairbanks has swept the whole Arctic region except Alaska. Unfortunately for him the Arctic region has no dele gates and Knox remains sixty eight votes ahead of him. Taft as well has no votes yet. He is tumbling his Le- viathan bulk about in the Ohio waters and he has compelled Foraker to get out of those waters and stand shiver- ing with pale lips on the banks, but the votes themselves have not yet been collected marked Taft" and placed on a string Knox will have to be reck- oned with in the coming State conven- tions wherever they may be held. He Is in the lead, What does his candi- dacy mean?
 It looks to Us as If the conservatives of the Republican Party are behind the candidacy of Senator Knox. By the conservatives we mean that element that would preserve the organization for the use of the rich classes of the country who have for so long found 1t

OFFICIAL HYsrERiA.

What the wise guys allude do as "dementia Americana" appears at times to take possession of officials as woll as the common people. That this affection, or something else. causes government officers to do ab- surd as well as unjust things is thus set forth by The New Bedford stan dard:
 A great government like this of the United States might refrain from bounding tne Czolgoscz family. even if one of the members was the mur- a particle of evidence that any other member of the family had anything to do with the murder, or approved it, shame and regret that their relative was concerned in the crime. Yet. an Ohio United States marshal Is quoted as saying that the Czolgoscz family role, and be prepared at any moment to give full account of all its move nents. And because somebody sent out 2 false and foolish story that Mi the day of Mrs. McKinley's funeral, there was no end of official fussiness and excitement. Michael Czolgoscz had done nothing worse than to go to a little Pennsylvania town to put flowers on the grave of his wife for Memorial Day, an errand for which he certainly needed to account to mo- body.
 That the crime of czolgoscz was a heinous one no right thinking person will doubt, and we consider 1t equally evident that the result of that crime was exceedingly unfortunate for our government and the country. but it was the crime of one villain and nc Of all who bore his name. There is no evidence. so far as we know. that oth- CT members of the family can bs, or should be. regarded with suspicion, or that all of them are to be looked on as prospective criminals. We have no law of attainder here, and the crime or one man cannot affect all who bear his name.
 This bumptious Ohio marshal is pos sibly affected with a severe case of swelI-head. or it may be that he Is only obeying instructions given him by those higher up. No one will deny that due care should be taken to prevent a repetition of the crime which brought sorrow and much subsequent trouble to the country. but to look on a man with suspicion and watch all his movements for no better reason than that he bears the name of Czol- goscz is evidence of a bad case Of hysteria on the part of government of dcia1s. Why not round up the entire family. old and young. male and fe- male. and send them out of the coun- try and have done with all the fool ishness.

Sir Reginald Clare liar

This was put in the hot sun. as the ftinerant had said that they would turn into oil in few days They did, and the resultant oil was so odorous when the bottle was .uncorked that all the rest of the boys fled in dismay. But Riley wanted to swim, and so he anointed himself religious1y. Alas! the charm did not work, nor did the water of the Brandywine wash away the efhuvia. The result was that when licked and licked end scrubbed. all with such small effect thatfor the fam fly peace he was obliged to sleep in an outhouse, until the odor had worn off. This is one of the episodes that Mir Riley probably will leave out when he writes his autobiography. -.
