TAFT AS MAN OF BUSINESS.
President Has introduced Admirable
System in Departments at
Washington.

PRESIDENT Taft has not had the bene-
ut OF business training. AS to that
he Is in the same category with all
the other presidents of the United
States, and. like the great body of
them-l9 OF the two dozen-he Is a
lawyer. But Mr.. Taft either has ex-
cellent business notions or he is very
apt at assimilating them from others
and putting them into practical opera
ton.
We noted the other day his admir-
able plan for subjecting the demands
or the departments for money to sys-
tematic review and revision, not only
with reference to economy in each de-
phrtment but with reference also to a
sensible coordination of the needs of
the entire administration with the re-
sources at its command. President
Taft has now devised a specific appli
cation of like principle to the DUR
chase of supplies for the departments
at washington, the cost of which has
heretofore amounted to something
like $S,000,000 a year. He has pro-
vided purchasing committee whose
business II shall be TO review the
acquisitions of all the departments. to
arrange for the purchase of the sup
plies they use in common, and neces-
sarily in large quantities, at the best
attainable rates and to supervise the
purchase of other supplies with a view
to advantageous prices and quality of
goods. This is, of course, of the A 3
c OF ordinary business, and is in prin-
ciple adopted by every considerable
concern in the country. In government
business it is novelty. 1t ought to
prove a very profitable one.-Chicago

NOT A MATTER OF LOYALTY.
Simple But Insuperable Reason Why
Subject Could Not knesI
Before His King.

One fancies that few types OF men.
can. from time to time, have afforded
royalty more amusement OF quiet
sort than provincial mayors of Eng
land. From the Foreland to Pen
xance," by Give Holland. contains the
story OF a mayor OF Weymouth who,
during one OF the visits OF King
George to the town, was destined to
AFFORD comic relief" to a ceremony of
some Importance.
The occasion was the presentation
Of an address Of welcome to the king,
and we are told that the mayor. on ap-
preaching to present it, to the aston.
ashment and dismay OF all, instead Of
kneeling. as he had been told to do,
seized the queens hand to shake IL
as he might that of any other lady.
Col. Gwynne, the master OF the cere-
monies. hurriedly told him of the
faux pas, saying: You should have
kneeled, sir"
Sir, cannot" was the reply.
Everybody does. sir" holly asserted
the colonel.
The mayor grew red, and evidently
much upset, exclaimed: "Confound 1t,
cir, but I've got a wooden Leg"
