cock, the able manager of the Taft
preliminary campaign and in charge of
the ''steam roller at the Chicago Con-
vention, has been selected for chair
man of the Republican National Com

THERE was singular thing about
the eclipse of the sun on Sunday. 1t
began at 9:35:28 a. m. which was ten
seconds ahead of time, and ended at
l2:49:02 p. m. which was twenty-five
seconds ahead Of the predicted time.
Astronomy is an exact science, and
usually the calculations materialize
within fraction of second. The
scientists are now in a quandary to
know how the miscalculation could
have been made. All of the astron-
omers of the world had been figuring
it for years and had agreed to the
second. What caused the affair to
happen so much in advance of the
time predicted and expected? That
is something that they are trying to
discover Perhaps there has been a
slipping of a cog somewhere lin the
universe. @fN

THE Department of Commerce and
Labor is doing a service for the cause
of labor which was not contemplated
at the time the department was es-
tablished, although that is only five
years ago. Secretary Straus has
started out to find employment for
many of the idle workers, and at the
same time to aid the employers who
want workers and who do not know
where to look for them. He has just
mailed over 1000 900 double postal
cards to rural employers all over the
country, asking how many persons
they want, and what sort of work
they have to do. The answers which
he will receive will be communicated
to the great business centers of the
country, where the idle workers re-
side, and addresses will be furnished
which will doubtless enable many of
the present idle persons to get work.

in the public schools. In North Car
DINA a separate section on Tubercu-
losis, placed in all the physiologies, is
taught to all the children. In Balti-
more steps are being taken to carry
on a systematic campaign OF educa-
ton among the school children by
means of lectures and circulars. Many
other cities of the country are follow
ing this plan. A petition has been
sent to the governor Of South Carolina
requesting that text book on tuber-
culosis similar to that used in Wash
ington, be placed in the public schools.
Several of the other states are also
taking steps along similar lines.
This movement for the popular ed-
ucation of school children on the
causes and dangers CT consumption is
receiving a great impetus. and experts
on this subject conclude that within
five years the majority of children in
the United States viii be taught the
evils and dangers Of tuberculosis be-
fore they leave the lower grades of

THE PRESIDENTS
SALARY.

Senator Bourne's bill to raise the
salary of the president to 100000
year and OF the slee president to
$4,000 is the revival of plan often
discussed. 1t also revives comparison
with the allowances of other rulers
form of expression that would have
been resented a few gears ago. What
the kings, emperors and czars receive
is, however, of no Importance. The
one question for consideration and set
Element is whether the present salary
is sufficient to remunerate the occu-
pant of the White House for the SER
vices he performs. There can be no
disagreement over the fact that the
president should not be obliged to pay
the expenses of entertainments whose
giving is part of the semi-social obi
cations he is under.
When the salary was fixed. first at
$4,000 and subsequently at $4,000,
the obvious purpose was to make the
ONCE the best paid in the country, J.
long ago ceased to be that. The ma
ton has entered on new era in which
the best services command large re-
wards, and there is no doubt that Mr..
Taft, in the practice of his profession,
could easily earl more than the pres
idential salary. Another view is that
the salary considered in its relation
to the wealth Of tbe nation is niggard-
ly.
The real point. however, seems to
be that it is not sum which permits
the maintaining of the dignity of the
Office without the exercise Of extreme
care, and unless the incumbent prac-
tees reasonably rigid economies, he
will have nothing At the end of his
four or eight years of service. There
seems to be sense Of obligation to
onr ex.presidents. 1t is frequently ar.
gued that the nation should take care
Of them. a much better way would be
to pay them enough SC that they may
take care of themselves. The amount
fixed in Senator Bnurnes bill is not
too much for the United states to pay
the chief executive.
