THE GOVERNMENT OF CITIES.

One of the worst defects OF Amcri.
can city government says the Chron'
icle. has long been the fact that the
most competent citizens usually are
conspicuous by their absence from the
different branches of administration.
or late there has been noted an en-
couraGing sign that the people have
become conscious of this condition
and an increasing disposition is shown
by business and professional men to
devote a portion Of their energies to-
ward securing an efficient government
for the places In which they live
Viewed from the purely selfish
standpoint OF private interest, it Is
seen that the more competent a muni-
cipal administration is the better 1t is
for business. and therefore the time
devoted to civic affairs by the sub
stantial men of community Is really
time given very largely TO themselves
In a iust-publlshed work on city gov
ernment abroad. Professor w. NJ Mon
roe OF Harvard University says that
the city councils of Prussian cities
have no difficulty in securing as mem
bers men of ability. integrity and gen
eral prestige 1t is we'll within the

larger number of these German coun-
cilors accept the duties of their Office
at a substantial sacrifice of their pri-
vato interests. Why the Germans sue

WHEN is A WOMAN HoMELY.

An exchange says peroxide blonde
with a wart on her nose is not neces-
sarily homely woman, and then 1t
relates how history. biography and
fiction are full of instances in which
women denominated "homely" laye
been esteemed more charming than
women beside them denominated
beautiful"
Which merely proves that, as NJ. De
Arouet thought. language is chiefly
useful to conceal thought.
When woman commands the ad-
miration Of men, whatever may be the
adjective We apply to her, she pos
sesses all the power that feminine
charm can command.
We see about us, every day, women
whom their sisters call homely; while
some men also decry their charms.
but sit at their feet A woman is as
beautiful as she Is powerful.

sRYAN's eLUNOER IN APPEALING
TO TAFT.

The Salt Lake Tribune is not I'M
pressed with Bryans wisdom OF fair,
ness In appealing to President Taft
to urge upon Congress an amendment
TO the Federal constitution permitting
the election of u. S. Senators by pop.
ular vote Az the Tribune points out,
four Democratic states, IL prevailed
upon 10 ask Congress to act, can
force that body under constitutional
mandate to call a convention for the
purpose of framing and submitting an
amendment to the states. Twenty
seven states already have concurred
In asking tais amendment. namely:

ho, Illinois, Indiana. Iowa. Kansas.
kentucky. Louisiana Michigan, Min
nesota, Missouri Montana, Nebraska,
Nevada North Carolina, Oklahoma
Oregon. Pennsylvania, South Dakota.
Tennessee, Texas. Utah, Washington.
Wisconsin and Wyoming.
But four more states are needed TO
add TO these, TO compel Congress TO
call the constitutional convention re.
ferred TO Any four of the following
states would be enough:
Alabama Connecticut, Delaware,
Florida. Georgia, Maine, Maryland.
Massachusetts, s.Mississippi,New Hamp-
shire, New Jersey. New York, North

Carolina, Vermont, Virginia, West yir-
ginia
The Tribune says: There are
plenty of Democratic States-Alaba,

say nothing of South Carolina and Vir-
glnia, to carry out this change in the
Constitution which Mr. Bryan seems
