Fairbanks, a Polished Diplomat,
Nay Get European Embassy

Vice President Fairbanks has won "a
great array OF golden opinions by his
conduct OF his mission 20 the Quebec
tercentenary celeb. atIon. There is great
satisfaction among people who have 10
do with international relations, that the
duty Of re presentinR this country Off
cially has been in the hands OF one so
skilled
There are indeed few Americans who
measure up more completely 20 the con
inental requirements OF a real dfpiO-
mat than does EIr. Fairbanks In this
connection there has been q good deal
OF intimation, both during and since the
Chicago convention, that the Vice Pres
ident could easily secure his choice Of
European embassies. under the Taft
Administration. II he would just indicate
a willingness to take one Of them
Would Have Advantage.
He would be, stepping out OF the Vice
Presidency into such q post. rather the
most distinguished diplomat America
has sent TO the Old World in a great
many years. The impression is that he
may yet conclude to accept such a pO-
sition and continue in the public service.
It is no secret that an arrangement
by which the entire and enthusiastic
support Of the Fairbanks Indiana fol-
lowing could be enlisted for the Re-
publican ticket would be most gratifying
right now to the Republican campaign
managers. They do not admit all that
the Democrats claim for Indiana, but
they do commonly admit that n there

State is Indiana, and that II is prob

The idea CT a steel palace" occurred
10 the President after he had had ex-

One night he was awakened BY an

leg. After that he decided that bricks

During the Chicago convention there
was much talk or the possibility OF Mr.
Fairbanks going 10 the court Of St

the asking. Whether that time is past
is not known, but talk OF such q con
summation has been reviveS by reason

The truth is that it is known Of all
fair-minded men that there never has
been an administration in the Govern
ment more efficiently conducted. more
free from scandal. and in which the
standard of official duty has been set
higher than in the present Republican
Administration, which the Demo ratio
platform has thus denounced.
It has had to meet the problems aris-
ing from the enormous expansion Of
Government functions under new leg
islative measures as well as in the new
structive work Of modern times, the
Panama canal. and its members may
we'll feel a just pride in the exccp-
Iional record for efficiency. economy
honesty. and fidelity which it has made
We may rely upon our record in this
regard in an appeal to the American
people for their approval.
The foreign Policy of this country
under the present Administration has
greatly contributed to the peace II the
world. The important part the Ad-
miniStratiOn took in bringing about an
end Of the Observation-Disclosures war by a
treaty honorable TO both parties and
the prevention Of wars in Central
America and Cuba are striking in
stances Of this The arbitration treaties
signed with all the important nations
OF the world mark a great step forward

New Dial Proposed.

Il has recently been proposed TO di-
vide the dIaIs OF watches into twenty
four hours. but without much success.
While such q division might be prac-
ticable for clocks, II becomes otherwise
in moderate-sized watches n use at the
present time. which would cause the
placing OF the figures TOO closely to-
gether.
As TO the decimal division. which has
also been advocated by scientists for
facilitating calculation, it would seem
to be too radical a change anS 40 rev
for use in daily life.

CHASTITY Find in Mouse River.

Minot, n. d., Aug. "a Was the man
taken from the Mouse river at about
l:3O this afternoon murdereds While
walking along the river bank, shortly
after noon today, w. II. Hatton, OF
Seattle, Wash, and Chas. Ilemming,
OF Youngstown, o., saw a human foot
sticking out OF the water, and on
further investigation the body OF a
man with both arms, foot and the
head missing was brought to view.
Coroner Larson was Immediately noti-
tied by the men making the lind, and
going TO the scene the body was
brought TO the city and taken TO the
morgue at Weageant's undertaking
rooms. From all appearances the body
had been in the water for some time,
and as the head is missing it may be
almost impossible to identify the un-
fort man. Sheriff Lee saws that
there has been no one reported miss
ing for some time, and it is therefore
believed that the dead man NAV have
been stranger to these parts. An
investigation will he made, however,
with a view to establishing the identi-
ty Of the man.
