Alderman Mehanty introduced Floyd
To his nephew, Lawrence Sullivan, ex-
piaining TO the latter that his friend
Floyd was to direct the machinery of
the Office until further notice.
Danny Roberts fitted like a glove
his new job in the Office of the Eclipse
Copper Mining Company. While there
was no work for him to do there was
plenty to be done in the way of fol
lowing out the instructions that Floyd
had given him. One part of Danny
program was to appear daily at the
main bucket shop owned by Rowley
Simpson. While this place was os-
tensibly a reputable brokerage Office,
it was none the less booklet shop,
pure and simple, where pikers In the
game of speculation poured more gold

And so 1t came that 1t seemed but
natural when Roberts requested a
private interview with Simpson on a
matter of Importance. This interview
was granted, but Simpson was cold
as an iceberg when Danny hung up a
distress signal, pleading that luck had
been against him and that he had
overplayed himself in the bucket shop.
Simpson, scenting request for a loan

out his tale OF woe. He pricked up
his ears, however. when Danny men

MOORE'S REPORT ON THIS
YEARS OYSTER SUPPLY.

Washington folks will extract a large
amount of consolation out of the latest
utterances of DR.. H. F. Moore assist
ant director of the bureau of fisheries,
who has spoken some reassuring words
appertainIng to the oyster. According
TO DR. Moore. who has been making a
careful examination of the oyster beds
Of Virginia and Maryland. Washington
viii have an abundant oyster supply
this season. Owing to the care eNercis-
ed by the State boards, this city will
be supplied with none but firm and
healthy specimens Of the bivalve fam
lily. DIR. Moore says the beds in Mary
land and Virginia are well stocked.
Dr. Moore goes farther and seeks to
rid the oyster of the Odium that has
fallen on him in some quarters because
Of the persistent talk that he associates
too freely with the bacilH of typhoid
He considers many cases of typhus un-
fairly charged TO the oyster and points
out that the State authorities all over
the East are taking precautions TO pre-
vent replsnting of oyster beds where
they are likely to be contaminated by
sewage and the like. Moreover, DR..
Moore emphasizes what is not general
ly known, and what is important in
view of the large consumption of oys-
tiers by the inhabitants of Washington
and the visitors to the city, that the
Department of Agriculture is kee@ng
sharp eye out on the interstate ship
ments of oysters in order that purity
may be certain With all these reas
surfing advices. the most cautious indi-
vidual can nov partake of the oyster
in peace.

SOME THOUGHTS ON THE DIS
COVERY OF THE POLE.

The discovery of the North Pole
arouses a queer mixture of thoughts
We think brave things a moment, then
We laugh, and then we wonder. The
deed is so full of the true human ming
ling of the fine and the laughable. It
seems fit theme for a poem or a jest.
But the one big TACT is that man has at
last conquered the ends of the earth.
He has explored the last chamber in his
little house. The zest for the unknown
cannot now find outlet in exploration
And the feeling that there Is a mysteri-
Jus romantic region beyond the horizon
viii no longer fire the imagination. Man
practically knows where he is, and he
viii have TO make the best of IT.
Then comes the thought of how sim
pie it was at last. It took what all
great achievements take, just a brave
and determined man. Dr. Cooks simple
story OF his trip wifi become classic.
Some OF its phrases have the heroic
epic quality.

THE FORTHCOMING ISSUE OF
TREASURY CERTIFICATES.

The condition of the Treasury at the
close of August makes it quite clear
that an issue of Treasury certificates
of indebtedness cannot be many weeks
delayed.
This IL no particular surprise to those
who have been following the Treasury
conditions closely. That such an issue
should be necessary, however, in time
of peace viii doubtless excite a great
deal of adverse comment. Such com
ment is not justified except in so far
as it may call attention TO the enor-
nous expenditures of the Government
for ordinary purposes. It is true that
IL the Panama canal were not being
built, there would be no need for an
issue of Government securities. At the
same time, it cannot escape notice that
the ordinary expenditures of the Gov
eminent this fiscal year are running
materially heavier than last fiscal year.
War, navy, and pension expenditures
are markedly higher
So far as the Treasury receipts are
concerned, they are heavy and point
to good condition of business. But
Uncle Sans purse strings have been
pretty freely loosened by Congress and
when that body meets again, confront
ed with an issue of Treasury certif-
Gates, it ought TO feel called on to give
the most careful scrutiny to the next
fiscal years appropriations.

putes between labor and capital, also
tends to show that the closer the rela-
tions between the two factors the less
the liability of such things as lock
outs and strikes.
When the employer regards his men
as men, with human impulses, human
desires and entitled to a square deal.
he usually finds that his men respond
by viewing his interests as theirs.
Under these circumstances. so long
as the present system continues, the
results are not only harmony and pros
perity. but an improved condition OF
general affairs.
