Charming and Popular.

Wlen the president maze several
changes in his cabinet last March he
called Ambassador Meyer to assume
the portfolio of postmaster general.
The Meyers, it was said by the social
exquisites at Washington, would make
most welcome additions to the society
of the national capital. Their wide
experience not only in Boston's Back
Bay district, but in the circles where
kings, queens and princelings move,
would lend distinction to the cab
met circle, all Of which has turned
out to be true. The Meyer ladies are
charming and popular European court
experience is by no means to be sneez-
ed at in our democratic Washington,
for the families of foreign diplomats
may be inclined to prefer the near
European to the all American brand
of social etiquette
AS to the head of the Meyer house
hold, these stories of his wealth and
his family's social training were not
conducive to the qualification of his
reputation with the masses. In fact,
there appeared to be set purpose on
the part of some Washington CORE
spondents to deny to Mr.. Meyer the
place of honor at the head Of his de-
partment and to make Frank Hitch
cock, the first assistant, postmaster
general by brevet. 1t was said that
Hitchcock did the work and Meyer
drew the honors.
Postmaster General Meyer now
seems to have gained his bearings in
the postoff1ce department. and to have
become the pilot of the ship The To-
cal postof1ce is the average citizens
most intimate bond of acquaintance
with the national government. To the
most of us a proposed change, for bet
ter or for worse, in the postofice de-
partment is matter of personal in
terest. Just how the innovations pro-
posed by Mr.. Meyer of Beacon Hill
will suit the denizen of Hillside Cor
ners, should they be approved by con-
gress, remains to be determined.

ropean countries under the parcels post
systems operated there packages are
carried at about one-fourth the price
exacted by the American express con-
Germs for the same weight and dis
lance. Consequently they have fought
this proposed innovation tooth and
toe nail. With Thomas G. Plat of New
York, president of the United States
Express company, in the national SEN
ate, the parcels post has had one in
veterate enemy in a high place for
many years.
The other opposing interest is one
which is stronger today than ever and
constantly growing still stronger. The
retail merchants of tie smaller cities
and towns are dead set against the
parcels post. They are just as en-
thusiastic in opposition as are the big
city mail order houses in advocacy of
it. The retailers hold that with pack
through the mails at q nominal rate
the mail order people will greatly in
jure the local retail trade. Already,
without a general parcels post. local
merchants have suffered greatly be-
cause of mail orders delivered by ex-
press. With the mails open both to
the order and to the delivery OF the
goods and with rural delivery routes
being extended day by day, the mer-
chants in small towns fear that disas-
ter would overtake their business.

makes strange bedfellows.
There Is one recommendation in the
postmaster generals report which all
Of us, particularly in the cities, will
approve. Mr. Meyer suggests that slot
machines be installed at points of pub
lie access for the automatic selling of
stamps and postal cards. Anybody
can appreciate the advantage of stamp

and wanted it badly, but, being miles
from the postomce, has been compelled
to brave the scornful drug clerk lion

Postmaster General Meyer, whose
recommendations have set people to
thinking and talking, is a unique fig
ure in the cabinet He was born on
Beacon Hill, Boston, in 1858, with a
whole set of golden spoons in his
mouth. Ever since then he has been
adding to his family plate-in other
words, getting richer. He is one of the
wealthiest men who ever sat at the
cabinet table, though great wealth is
not new to the presidents department

Mr.. Meyer was graduated from Har-
ward in 1879, just year before Theo-
dore Roosevelt received his diploma
from the same institution. Mr.. Meyer

the accompanying cash, his way was
easy. AS merchant and as managing
director in a dozen big concerns Mr..
Meyer pursued fowery path He
married a charming woman, Miss
Alice Appleton, was brilliant figure

He was different. Early in his TWEEN
ties he got himself elected Boston
alderman. Then he was called higher
and became a member of the Massa-
chusetts legislature for several terms.
In 1894 the young legislator was elect
ed speaker Of the house. He made an
excellent record as a presiding officer.
1t is said of him that he expedited
business with unusual ability and tact.

DarrOW and Borah WreStle
With Conspiracy Charges
During Thursday.
END OF CASE NOW IN SIGHT
1T is BELIEVED THAT THE AC'
CUSED MINER WILL KNOW
HIS FATE WITH A WEEK AT
THE LEAST.

Boise. Idaho, July ia day OF ar
gument on the admissibiity OF points
of evidence followed the announce
ment from the defense that they he'd
no further witnesses to offer In be-
half William ID. Haywood. The jury
was not brought into court, Judge
Wood having been informed by coun-
Gil of their decision to rest without
offer of sur-rebuttal.
Clarence Darrow spoke for an hour
and a half of the morning session.
Senator Borah replied in the after
noon and was followed by E. F. Rich
ardson.
The point argued was the proposl-
ton to exclude from consideration by
the Jury the evidence offered by the
defense TO show. by proof. the depor-
tation of miners from and the en-
ployment of detectives in the Cripple
Creek district of Colorado; that a
conspiracy was formed among the
mine owners and citizens of the dis
trict to prevent the employment OF
members of the Western Federation
of Miners.
The position taken by the Haywood
defense was that Harry Orchard was
employed by the Mine Owners Asso
citation through detectives to commit
crimes which were then charged tG
the federation and public opinion
aroused against the union workers
and it therefore followed that if Colo
raGo evidence for the state was ad
mitted. the defense had the right te
show a counter conspiracy.
State Makes Reply.
The reply of the state was that th'
defense had failed legally 10 connec
their case in the particulars, and
therefore, their evidence merely con
fused the issue.
In the absence of the jury the argu
ment gave counsel an opportunity Il
