BALLINCER SAYS
HE'S NOT TOQUlT
Secretary of Interior Pays His
Compliments to "Scurvy
Politicians"
WILL STICK TO HIS JOB
Declares He Is Sharpening an AK to
Use on Next Individual Who Inter-
feres With His Official Work.

! Chicago, Aug. 4-Richard A. Balm
ger, secretary of the interior, after
making plain in as forceful terms as
he could muster that he had not the
slightest intention of quitting Office,
last evening gave intimation that he
was sharpening an ak to be used on the
next individual who endeavored to in
| terfere with his program for the de-
partment of the interior.
The secretary also had some strong
statements TO make, on his arrival in
! Chicago, concerning certain ''scurvy
politicians" and more scurvy" news
papers he credited with trying to sep
arate him from his job
Incidentally the head Of the depart
ment of the interior refused to say
whether he had received any sort of a
communication, of endorsement or 9th
erwise, from Colonel Roosevelt since
the return of the former president from
Africa. That those same "scurvy poll
ticianS" would not succeed in making
trouble between President Taft and
Colonel Roosevelt was his only allusion
to his former chief.
Roosevelt Communication Private.
Secretary Ballinger arrived here in
the morning and Immediately went into
secret conference with Assistant At
torney General Lawler, whom he met
here. The conference, he said, con-
cerned departmental business and he
would not say what was its nature.
"As to any communication from Co
lionel Roosevelt, l want to say that it
is entirely private and personal, and
l do not care to talk about it, said the
secretary in the evening. THE public
gets interested in many things that are
none of its business. I don't mind say
ing that in the future 1 will run the
department of the interior as l think
best, and not as outsiders would have
me run it,
How about your reSig@
mo, l want to say right here that l
am not" he emphatically interrupted
"All this talk of my quitting comes
from scurvy politicians and equally
scurvy newspapers. l think that Pin
chot can take care of himself. 1 will
take care of myself, and the devil can
take care of those scurvy politicians"
just Swap Lies.
Secretary Ballinger then was asked
about his conference with Senator w
Murray Crane in Minneapolis. which
had been followed by a rumor that the
senator had mildly suggested that the
secretary might gracefully resign.
Il am well acquainted with Senator
Crane and we swap lies" said Secre-
tory Ballinger. Our discussion con-
cerned public affairs, but at no time
was there the slightest hint of resig-
nation on my part from anybody con-
cerned.'

Before the Public.

Iii an article in Printers Ink on the
value of trademark protection, John
Lee Mahin says that the manufacturer
wBo lets his competitors make his
prices loses his sense of responsibility
20 his customer He places a premium
OF mediocrity, slovenliness and care
les sness. This is the inevitable result
where men feel no pride or responsible
ity in what they do. The just conclu-
siol is that no manufacturer need let
competitors impair the standard of his
production by uuderselling.
His safeguard lies in adopting a
trademark to distinguish his wares
from those that are inferior, and in SO
advertising it that no consumer can be
deceived into sacrificing quality for
cheSpness. No medium is more effec-
tire in popularizing the trademark
and the wares it guarantees than the
frst-class daily newspaper.

Once More, the Telephone Situation.
Anent the telephone situation, local
ly speaking, and involving the proposed
sale of the Union Electric franchise
ard other holdings to the Central IN
ion, TIE Argus has but to reiterate
what it has formerly said, as to the
attitude of the council. There is no
occasion for undue haste, and assured
ly there should be no disposition to
railroad any pending ordinance. The
Rock Island council has during the
past year handled a number of import
ant ordinances, and in the end has for
the most part disposed of them in a
manner satisfactory to the public. This
has been accomplished by calm and in
telIlgent elaboration. This same
course will bring about the same result
in the proposition now up for consid-
Grafton.
10 this end, every phase Of the sit
uation should be considered What the
council ought to consider, is not the
interests of any particular telephone
company or the interests of any indi-
vidual, but the interests Of the public
III general anu the ISISpuOA0 uSSIS III
particular. The aldermen should con-
Suit the people who are the users of
telephones, and the people who would
like to use them, and then they will
find their responsibilities lightened in
handling the complications that have
arisen. The proposition. by the way, is
not one that can be side-stepped. 1t
must be met and disposed of.
1t is possible that the city may gain
scme valuable concessions in whatever
disposition may be made of the ordi-
nances that have been presented. But
above all, as The Argus has already
stated, there is no occasion for feeling
among those who compose the munich
pei assembly. 1t is gratifying to note
that at the present status of the pro-
ceedings the consensus of sentiment in
the council seems to sustain this the
DRY
? The members of the common coun-
Gil have but to work together with an
eye single to what is best for the pub
lie. and good results are sure to be
obtained

Ten-Hour Law for Women.

The 1O-hour law for women work
ers in mechanical establishments, fac
tories and laundries is noY in force
in the state of Illinois. This law was
held constitutional by the supreme
court of Illinois.
The Women's Trade Union league
of Chicago calls attention to the fact
that a great number of employers
are trying faithfully to observe the
10-hour law and are adapting the ar
rangements of their business to meet
its requirements. On the other hand
many violations are being reported.
This fact brings about unfair compe-
tition, which the law was passed to
prevent.
The Argus congratulates Mrs. Ray
mond Robins and the women of the
league associated with her, who are
urging impartial enforcement of this
1O-hour law. Under its provisions
the state department of factory in
spection is charged with the duty of
enforcing the statute and prosecuting
all violations.
AS the factory inspection depart
ment was recently weakened by the
reduction of the number of inspec-
tors, it becomes more than ever i'm
perative that the department receive
not only the cooperation of employ
ers, but the assistance of those who
believe that this most equitable and
just law should be enforced.

Paid a Camnaign Debt.

When Samuel M. Fitch, railroad
conductor, assumed the office of in
ternal revenue collector, to which he
was appointed by President Taft, he
stated that his predecessor, Henry
l.. Hertz, had established such a
splendid business system that the Of
fee would almost run itself. gov
eminent accountant who examined
Mr.. Hertz books found every penny
accounted for though he had handled
over 100000.
That being true why was Mr.. Hertz
asked to resign? Simply to make a
place for a man who had rendered
campaign services. How long could
business man succeed who conduct
ed his business on that basis?

The steel corporation reports unex.
pectedly large earnings. So far as this
reflects recovery in the business stu
alton the entire country will take great
satisfaction in it. So far as it reflects
the suppression of competition and the
maintenance of prices by partial
monopoly it cannot be regarded with
complacency. The company is enor-

Old TubaI Cain was a man OF might
In the days when the earth was new.
For the blacksmith then was the prince Of
men.
And his swords were strong and true.
But he wouldn't stand ace high today
In his little two Dit shop.
With his iron products made by hand,
Since the steel trust has the drop.
Under the spreading chestnut tree
The village smithy stood.
And the smith all day In his busy way
Sang a song as ne sawed wood.
But the smith has gone 20 his long
ward.
And his shop is but a dream.
In constructing tools he is but a Joke
Since they're making things BY steam
II is much that way in every line
For the man who once made shoes.
Should he try IL now he would md some.
how
He was bound in the end to lose
The big machine with its human touch
In the workshop up TO date
Can turn out ten where he made one;
Can construct them while you wait
And there's no use kicking against the
bricks
Nor bemoaning the rosy past.
The iron is not. but the blacksmith r. not.
And the shoeman has lost mis- last
It may be for better. u may be for worse.
But IL isn't the same old way.
And whether we like or lump the fact
The trust mas come TO stay.
