Courage.

EdItCT Tbs Washington Herald:
Courage is a word Of purely classic
origin-"cor," the heart. I GO not know
what courage is. Do you? I have seen
young men meet death face 10 face with
out a thought. and their lives fash out
at the cannon's mouth. call that dar-
ing They thought it duty Where duty
called, these noble youth dared TO die.
Much as I honor this high courage,
pathetic as the remembrance is. depTe-
eating nothing Of my own hearts heroes
know there is a higher courage yet
He that ruleth his own spirit IS greater
than he that taketh a city"
Above al the worlds heroes I put him
or her who. in their own quiet thoughts
and solitary lives, control themselves in
obedience to the love Of Jesus Christ. Il
IS easy enough for the honor in it, for
the praise and seIf-gTatulation that fol
low, 10 be brave That Is nothing, It Is
common. What we want is TO dare to do;
think right As man thinketh so Is he.
I care nothing for your words. What

quiet hOUT2 are you brave2 Can you
conquer al evil. call up aI good. repress

Furlough at the G. P. 0.

Editor The Washington Herald:
The cause Of dun business at the G. P.
o. simply means the gradual withdrawal
OF printing OF the several departments.
owing to excessive cost Since the scheme
Of reorganization was established by
StIlings. Il has cost the government more
than sl.5oo.o0O to pack the G. P. O. with
machinery Of al kinds; in fact. StilIings
bought a surplus-no room II which to
place It; the old building IS overloaded
with discarded good material
When the G. P. O. was converted into
a machine shop. 1t was claimed BY those
financially interested that It would de-
crease the cost Of printing. whereas the
CC1artment officials assert that the cost
OF printing has not only increased since
then. but that the work is Of inferior
quality. StiIlings' high-priced. nOn-pro-
dUCeTs are stiu on the pay roI, except
that few changes were made by MI
Leech for personal RESPONSIBILITIES rang
ing from $3.50 down 20 S2o0o. When an
estimate is made for department Job. the
cost OF maintaining the executive force
IS included. as well as heavy expenses
FOR machinery. II Is plainly to be seen
why the department oIuclalS decline 10
accept the high price. because the funds
set apart for departmental printing would
become exhausted before July I.
The result is, while the employees in
the G. P O.. who render the government
profitable service, are furIoughed. the
non-producers wax fat with continued
salaries, because OF certain influence they
possess. These evils could be corrected
by the enforcement OF the civil service
law, and the government would be the
gamer. President Taft has said time and
again, that no man IS higher than the
law. Then why not enforce civil service
law J. r. BRCNE
