his position by keeping two of them

Immediately, Mr.. Marsh holds, the

He points out that many men who
are married and have families are
compelled to work along for from $500
to 500 year. This means, he says,
that many men of more than average

AS result, he says, Washington is
facing a housing famine, because the
working people cannot find homes in
which they can afford to live. He ad.

general advance in salary for the I'M

been attended to, he says, SO that

WHERE THEY LEARN ECONOMY

The manager of the employment
agency was used to hearing women in
search of maids, ask applicants all
sorts of queer questions, says the New

him mildly curious. OF IA girls in
turn she had inquired: Have you
worked in a minister's family?" None
of them had. TOO bad said the ma

n ROBABLY no dwelling in the
United States has better or more
complete system of electric illumina-
ton than the White House at Wash
ington. That result is accomplished
by 1900 incandescent lamps distribu-
tod throughout the mansion and the
office annex and by a number of arc
lights in the grounds and along the
driveways. There are stately electric
standards in the parlors and large
electric lanterns in the main vestibule
and under the porte cochere at the
main entrance. It would be difficult,
if not impossible, for any person to
approach the mansion at night with
out being seen by the officers on
guard.

w AsH1NGToN.-Every now and
W then story appears in some
newspaper that Speaker Cannon is
ABOUT to announce his retirement from
public life. Then will follow a contra
dlction from close friend of the
speaker.
The frequency of these retirement
stories indicates that Uncle Joe" will
have the fight of his life next winter.
rms does not mean political fight in
the sense that the Democrats will
make 1t warm for him; it means that
the night will be within the ranks of
his party on the floor of the house,
The insurgents" will make it warm
for Uncle joe" They made it most
unpleasant for him and his program
during the extra session. They did
not always succeed in getting what
they went after, but they made
showing of sufficient strength to cause
the leaders to take notice.
And what they did then will not be
marker to what they will do next
winter, according to present indica-
lions. 1t is the knowledge of this that
has started the story that Cannon
will announce his purpose to retire
from congress at the close of his pres
ent term

Cannon to Retire Is Latest Gossip

FRIENDS OF the speaker say 1t would
not surprise them if he retired from
public life at the close Of his present
term. They call attention to the fact
that he is serving his eighteenth
term, at the close of which he will
have served in the house So years,
more than generation. And on the
fourth of March, 1911, he will have
completed four terms as speaker.
When the time arrives for the next
congressional campaign Cannon will
be "a years old. This is rather well
advanced in years for man to go up
against fight such as is known will
be made against the Sage of Danville.
Cannon's friends say he dearly loves
fight, and it is the knowledge of the
fight that may induce him to run
again.
However it is whispered that he is
not so strong physically as he was
several years ago, and he might take
his health into consideration. He
realizes that he has had about all
there is for him in the way of political
preferment that his state or district
can bestow, and he knows that he will
never be considered as a candidate
for the presidency as he is now in
the aged class.
There are not few well-informed
public men who for this reason be-
lieve that Speaker Cannon is serving
his last term and that he will make
the public announcement next spring
that he has had his full quota of serv-
ice and the time is at hand to give
some of the youngsters in the Dan
vile district an opportunity.
