PATRONAGE ACTION
MEETING APPROVAL
President Is Of the Opinion
That the SoIons Should Be
Consulted Before Making
Any Appointments.
BY Sheldon s. Cline.

Washington, March 22.-"Happy
Day Oh! Happy Day is the favor
lite song Of United States senator's
gdney refer to the day William How
ard Taft succeeded Theodore Roose
welt as president OF the United States
The immediate cause of their rejoic'
ing is the announcement that the
president will interpreted the consti
tutional injunction that presidential
appointments shall be made by and
with the advice and consent of the
eenate" to mean that senators shall
be consulted before appointments are
made.
Had to Take Back Seat.
During the Roosevelt administra.
tion, especially during the latter part
OF it. senators did not figure very con.
spicuOusly as patronage dispensers
Mr.. Roosevelt accepted senatorial
recommendations as to the fitness OF
candidates for office when the recon-
mendations fitted in with Mr.. Roose-
velt's own views: when the recon-
mendations did not fit the senators
were ignored. This was far from
pleasing to the senators and the sem
ate refused to confirm large number
OF the Roosevelt appointments.
Presidents Reasons.
There are two reasons which
prompt Mr.. Taft to reverse the Roose-
welt policy. One is that the presi.
dent believes the men the states have
selected to represent them in the SEN
ate are reasonably well qualified to
pass on the merits Of candidates. and
the other Is that the president cannot
0ee the sense Of making nominations
and have them held up in the senate.
So far as the influence of senator's is
concerned, It is said. the administra-
tion starts with clean slate. There
are not any administration" or anti
administration" senators. Whether
there shall be any in the future re-
mains for the future to determine 1t
goes without saying that republican
senators will be more influential in
the matter of appointments to office
than their democratic colleagues. but
It IL understood that even the recon-
mendations Of democratic senators
are not to be wholly ignored. The
reasons which apply to the senate as
. whole apply equally to democratic
senators. Not only is it to be assum-
cd that their advice is worth having,
but even democratic senators have
demonstrated their ability to prevent
confirmation Of presidential appoint
lments.
congressman Wonder.
While all this is very cheerful, from
a senatorial point of view. members
OF the house are wondering where
they come in. In the good old days
before the advent Of Roosevelt, house
members were consulted with refer
ence to the distribution of patronage
in their districts. especially in the
matter of misunderstanding. There is
no constitutional injunction, however,
that mere representatives in congress
shall be advised with in the matter of
making appointments, and President
Taft has not given any indication of
his views on this phase of the ques-
ton.
The hardest blow ever dealt house
members in the matter of patronage

A BIG PTGPEN.
By EDwN A. NYB.


Stanley Ketchei is pug" who
bruises and is bruised inside the ropes
for hire and for the delectation of
sports. But he knows thing or two
aside from prize8ghting.
Speaking of his plans for retirement
from the ring, he says:
THE open country for me, with lots
of fresh air. soon tire of the bright
lights of Broadway They've made a
bum out of many a good fighter, and
I'm going to give them a wide berth"
Another athlete, Farmer" Burns,
one time champion wrestler, is a real
farmer. He owns and manages sew
eral good Iowa farms. Both as
wrestler and farmer he makes hay
while the sun shines.
Frank Goteh, champion wrestler,
also owns an Iowa farm. Speaking
on the occasion of his recent marriage.
Gotch said he intended to put every
dollar he could save into land.
These athletes have seen men like
John L. Sullivan and others lose their
money and health in the miasma of
city muck. and they have profted by
the observation.
When a fighter is in training he
must be abstemious, but the trouble
comes with success. The Great White
Way makes q bum Of him.
You people who live in the open
country, who breathe the air of the
good, wide spaces. can scarcely know
unless you have seen 1.-THE squalor
and filth Of the places where the
masses herd in the cities.
A big city is a big pigpenl
That is right. A comparative few
live in great luxury, but the great
masses are hemmed into the tene-
ments like pigs Many q farmers pig
sty is a place Of comfort by the side

sands of human beings are confined.
There they live and breed and rot
and die
Under filthy conditions hogs Will
contract cholera. Under filthy condi-
! tons humans are infected with every
sort of disease.
Why do they stay?
They are fascinated by the bright
lights and in love with the rush and
roar Of the streets. So much does the
feverish, overweight life of the city
appeal to them that they refuse the
offered chance to go to the small
farms which they may buy on small
payments and live the quiet. simple
life where there is comfort and plenty
And so the lights of Broadway have
made bum Of many a good fighter
