Some of the papers in discussing the
matter OF the re-apportionment to be
made by the next legislature, have
come out in favor of an increase in the
number of representatives and sena,
tors, but they should remember that
this requires a constitutional amend
ment. The chances are that such an
amendment would be overwhelmingly
defeated and the legislature should
not take advantage of this excuse in
not making the apportionment as re,
quired by the present constitution
They can make the apportionment
at this session, and pass the con,
stitutional amendment providing for an
increase at the same time. Then if
the amendment is defeated we will
still have a just apportionment of the
hundred seats.

What is a Newspaper.

A newspaper is the thing
which every person IN town
knows how to run except the
editor. It is what should be
an oven for ''roasts' on every
one except himself, members
OF your family and a few Of
your particular friends, for
whom it sh ould be a sweet
scented boquet Of praise.
It is a promoter Of profani--
tv if it is not on the front
porch when you get down in
the morning, and what you
tell the man who works on it
isn't fit to go into a decent
persons home.
It is what the young man
who bOrrOws it from the sa-
loon bar ''kicks' about be-
cause it contains only one
sporting page and which the
woman tells her neighbor
when she takes it back is not
worth subscribing for because
it has but one page, devoted
to fashions and making cur
rant jam.
It is what the merchants
to pull his ad. out of becasse
he cannot have the run of the
paper and what the old sub.
scriber declares is going to
the demnition bowwows be-
cause it is getting SO that
nothing bnt advertising can
get a position in it any more.
It is what yon want to see
the editor to keep your name
out of as soon as you have
settled with the police JUS
tice on toe morning after and
to get your name into as soon
as the cards are issued two
weeks before.
It is what is just too hor-
rid and inquisitive for any
thing, and please keep my
name out" when the reporter
wishes to know about the
bridge whist club and which
is the mean old sheet that
never gets anything right
when your name is omitted
from among those present. .
1t is what no one ever for
gets to condo mn for it's mis-
takes and never remembers
to condemn for it's mistakes
and never remembers to
praise for the good it accom-
plishes.
It is a subsidized organ
when it fails to tell about the
millionaire's wife running
away with the coachman and
a libelous yellow rag when it
reports your police court
trial for killing your neigh
boris rooster.
It is what is difficult to
print SO as to suit anybody
and which would be nothing
but eight pages of blank
white paper with headline
if it were published so as to
suit everybody.

Notes From w ashington
From Our Regular Correspondent.

During the Presidents alb
sence the White House has been
completely reprinted. all the old
paint having been burned off and
three coats of dead white applied
afterwards. The White House
is the only stone building be-
longin 6 to the government in
Washington which is painted
and the reason for this is not
generally known. It was built
originally of white sandstone but
was already beginning to show
the discoloration of time and
weather when, in 1872, it was
burned by the British. The
burning of the interior so dis
cOlored the walls that they could
not be restored TO any uniform
ity of color and it was decided to
paint them white. The presi-
dents Mansion then became
known as the white House"
and such has been his name
ever since, while each year or
two it has been given a coat of
fresh paint. This was the first
time in years that it has been
burned off, a treatment Of which
it was sadly in need. While the
White House has been the popu-
lar name, "The Executive Man
sion" was the official name and
was used on the Presidents sta
tionery until Roosevelt became
President. He declared that
every state had an executive
mansion. but that only the
United States had q white house
and he caused the latter name to
be adopted officially and en-
grayed on all his. stationery. in
vltations. ETC., and so, probably,
the White House it will be until
the end of time.

which the President will be
called upon to solve during his
brief stay in the capital will be
the question of the Transports
ton of coal for the navy's Paci-
fc cruise. The feet will require
1913, 900 tons of coal, all of which
must be carried west from
Hammptoa roads where the
Norfolk failwa US terminate. Of
this amount $4,000 tons is to be
delivered at South American
and Mexican ports and that is
not affected by the coastWise
laws so that it may be trans
ported in foreign ships without
question. But 10000 tons must
be delivered at San Francisco
and according to the contention
of the shipoing interests, this
must be carried in American
ships. Bids have been received
from both American and foreign
vessels and the foreign bids are
so 10 UGH lower that the cost, if
they are employed, for the trans
portation of the 10000 tons will
be about $28O,OO0 while if Amer
lean vessels are used the cost
will be not less than $3.50, 900.
The Navy Department believes
that under a law passed last SEES
sion it has the right to use for
eign vessels. but the shipping
lawyers maintain that it has not,
and many senators and repre-
sentatives have written to Wash
ington stating their opinion that
last years law have no such
right. The Navy Department is
in a quandary and it is expected
thot Secretary Metcalf will sub
NIT the question to the Presi-
dent for final decision.
