ALLEGED H0LD.UP
SAYS IT'S ALL
A MISTAKE

Charles X. Steele, alleged to be
one of the hold-up men who rob-
bed Jack Martin, an aged cripple,
early yesterday morning of $65,
still maintains that 1t is case of
mistaken identity. He claims that
he merely ran to the assistance of
Martin when the robbery took
place, and was taken for one of
the robbers.
He was brought to the police
court this afternoon to be arraign-
ed. Martin has positively identi-
fled Steele, but failed to recognize
Morrill, Dean. who was arrested
yesterday noon on suspicion. as
the second of the robbers. Dean
was arraigned in the police court
this afternoon on the charge of
vagrancy.

Insurance Suggestions -Ihe Benjamin Wedding g-Corinthian Clnb-AbbOtt Vs. PhilIips-A Surprise Engagement Social Notes,

Suggestions regarding the fire de- partment and insurance matters con- tinue to be made so frequently it looks as if somebody interested in the insur- ance business was intent upon carry ing out a. plan for personal reasons. If it is a fact that the insurance rates of the town are to be lowered, all will be glad to know it. Some western towns form a mutual company and carry their own insurance. If the town feels like insuring all the houses and personal property in the town, as stunning the risks, and collecting the premiums, there is probably nothing to hinder. If it can be shown to be a money making scheme very likely it will be voted for. The fact is that some fire insurance companies do not live up to their contract. After& fire the agent resorts to all sorts of&&ays to reduce the amount which the policy had agreed to pay. He claims that he is entitled to 60 days in which to settle a claim, and if it so happens that the man who has suffered from a fire needs money before that time, he may whistle or consent to take a much smaller amount than he has been paying for. That is one way a mod ern company trys to make money. Again they induce a customer to take out a. policy for large sum, and col 1ect the premiums, and when a. fire occurs they cOOlly assert that in no case will the company pay more than certain sum, regardless of the agree
 ment in the policy. If the town can devise some means to protect those who do insure it will be a worthy and

The direct primary plan of Gov Hughes of New York is, in substance as follows: Party committees (state county, etc.,) to be, chosen at direct primaries, strictly regulated by law these committees to suggest candidates for the public offices to be filled; the candidates thus suggested to be nom- mated Cor rejected and others substi- tuted) by the party's enrolled voters at the primary election.
 Naturally this plan is antagonized by the party managers. Their stronghold is in the party committees, and the power of constructing them is placed with the people under the Hughes plan. Of course, this would at least endan- ger, and probably destroy, the bosses power. This is exactly what is need ed in boss-ridden states. It is need ed in Connecticut as we'll as New York, the former being under even more au- tocratic boss-rule than the latter.

Speaker Cannon is somewhat alarm ed by the attempt of the Success Magazine" to defeat his candidacy for reelection. This magazine mailed last week to some 10000 persons a series of four questions and had, up to Feb. 26, received 4,297 replies. Upon the question whether the Speaker should be reelected, there were 3,9S1 negative and 211 affirmative replies; on the ques- ton, whether the Speaker should be allowed to construct the House com mittees, the negatives numbered 4,0S5 and the affirmatives 14S; as to placing the construction of committees in the hands of special committee chosen by the House, 4,129 persons answered "Yes,'' and but 94 ''No;" upon the ques- ton of setting aside one day per week for action upon bills without securing the previous consent of the Speaker, the answers were 4,165 in the affirma- tive and but 48 in the negative.
 AS may be noted, an overwhelming majority condemn Speaker Cannon and the present House rules, and it is eminently probable that the sentiments thus expressed are shared, proportion ately, by the people. But the re- election of Speaker Cannon is never theless probable, though there is a scant possibility of lessening of his autocratic power.

IUQTD DEFINITIONS

Alexander Graham Bell is the author Of a specially instructive article upon 4he trust question, in worlds Work Ills definitions of the words ''compe- fftion' and monopoly are exception ally Illuminating as well as accurate:
 Competition tends to bring down Wrices to the lowest prices at which Rroduce-s are willing to sell
 Monopoly tends to raise them to the Aighest point at which the people are able to buy.
 @Cumbinations may reduce the cost of pfoduction, and should not be allowed ID raise prices above the level produc- Sd by competition A ''limit should be Tt to the amount of profit that can be made" and all beyond an equitable noturn upon the capital invested should be treated as usury'' and forbidden by Inv. In MT. Bells opinion, there are 1ut two available and practicable 1pethcds of abating the greed of mo- 1aopolies, and these are to fix a limit upon profits, and of governmental own etsaip, the last-nanned inadvisabIe.
 1Gr. Bell says nothing as to the bas- ing of profits upon watered capital, the usual monopolistic method of con- eealing inordinate gains, unless by the words "capital invested" he means ac- tuAl money with no water.
 As to the practicability of placing a limit upon profits, there may be differ ences of opinion; this method of check ing monopolistic greed would certainly 6e difficult, for it would involve ascer- tainment of the cost of production, a problem with which the House commit tee on Ways and Means is now wrest- ling in order to determine upon proper tariff duties.

Among the notables who will retire from Congress this week are Senators Platt of New York, and Foraker of Ohio MT. Platt has never been conspicuous otherwise than as a protector of spe- cia1 interests and as a dispenser of Federal patronage; his record in con- structive statesmanship is of the neg 1igib1e kind. MT. Foraker has been prominent in legislative matters, and would probably have been reelected had he not antagonized the Presidents s action in the Brownsville case, and also endeavored to defeat Taft for the Republican Presidential nomination. This called down upon him the vitrio- lie wrath of the President, which took the form of accusing him of profess sional connection with the Standard Oil Go. and assured his defeat for re- election. He has, however, the satis- faction of knowing that Congress has virtually endorsed his Brownsville stand.

CERTAIN POSTAL EafPLoYEs.

The post office department of the United States gives the best public service in the world for the least mon ey- This is said in knowledge of the fact that the functions of the postoffice
 in this country are less varied than fhey are in most of the European countries. The English postal depart Mnent not only handles the mails, but fhe telegraph and telephone lines as well. It conducts a parcels post and an elaborate and far reaching savings hank system
 But the United States is a large country. The work of delivering the maiIs, even uncomplicated with the many functions of continental post of 0cez is very great. This service is perfcrmed in the United States more eheaply and more effectively than anywhere else
 Nobody should be misled upon this point because there is usually deficit 1n the yearly revenues of the postal de- partment, which has to be made up 1rum general taxation. This deficit is occasioned by the onslaughts of the railroads and a number of very active special interests. It will cease when khese interests are stripped of their present too great influence, which will 6o at no distant time.
 But if the post office were supported ontirely by direct taxation it would be the best and the cheapest public ser vice the world has ever known. That would not be so just, nor so fair way to support it as to make each user pay his share scot and lot, but it would be better and much cheaper thus, than in fhe hands of private spectators who would not do business at cost, who would not even be satisfied with a large dividend upon honest invest snent, but who would demand and re- ceceive as the railroads, trolley, gas and electric light companies do, large dividends upon enormous quantities of water
 1t being true that the post office de- partment gives the best and cheapest public service in the world. there ex- 1sta no reason why the employees of the department should not be adequately compensated. There is a group of de- serving employees who have not been Recognized in the recent wage increases In the department brought about by the increased cost of living. These are the supervisory employees. They are the Q6dQS or Q1V1S1OnS, Super1ntendenLS of departments and in some cases as- Eistant postmasters- They are organ ized into the National Association of Supervisory Postoffice Employees. The association has for some time been trying to secure a proper salary in crease of congress Their clans have been so far recognized that the House Committee on Post Roads has inserted in the Post Office appropriation bill, now pending, a clause increasing the compensation of some 400 persons $100 annually.
 But there are 1000 employees in this class, 500 of whom are omitted from Consideration in the bill. This is an injustice. If the principle involved is correct, it is correct for the entire group of supervisory employees and not for 400 of them alone.
 Now that the service is classified, skill and experience carrying with it responsibility should be paid for ac- cordingIy. In the old days these mat fers were settled by pull. Merit is now the determining factor. There
