Taft and His Journeyinss.

Congressional critics of the president
who are now finding fault with the ex-
tent and the expenses of Mr.. Taft's
trips about the country would probably
test were he to elect to stay in Wash
ington and assume the active RESPONSE
bility for the work of legislation which
characterized the policy of his innledf
ate predecessor. This is an inconSiSt-
ency that is not surprising, for consist
ency is not the quality for which one
looks in the sort of statesma nship now
being praciced at the national capital
but in the opinion of the nation at
large, or that portion of it not immedi-
ately engaged in partisan politics, the
president alone should be the judge of
the expediency and the necessity for
his absence from the capital.
1t has not been pretended that the
president has by these journeyings
neglected any public duties 1t is not
part of his constitutional functions to
oversee the work of congress or to ap-
ply the spur to Iaggard or Indifferent
legislators, and the clamOr from con-
gressional sources for his presence and
his influence to control legislation is a
cOwardly attempt to shift to the broad
shoulders of the chief executive the re-
sponsibility for impotence and ineffi-
cheney on the part OF the legislative
branch of the government.
Presidential Journeys around the
country are a natural result of the
modern progress in the facilities of
communication, and it is bat just to
Mr. Taft to say that his trips are not
made for his own individual pleasure
or enjoyment, but in the performance
of what he conceivesl to be his duty
to the country. In practically every case
they nave been in response to urgent
solicitation and for the express purpose
of aiding with his presence and his
voice some public undertaking for the
material, civic or moral development of
the country If this is not a part of

PURE MILK,

There is endeavor in the large
cities to procure for infants pure milk
that the mortality may be reduced to
the least number, but it is not 50 cas-
lily accomplished.
The New Haven Journal-C Courier is
right when it says that "the first step
toward making the next generation
sane, temperate citizens, sound in body
and mind, is to see to it that they are
we'll fed and well cared for in in
fancy"
1t is barely possible that what might
be termed pure milk might not be abb
solutsly clean milk Some milk deal
ers claim that there is no pure milk
which has not passed through a sep
arator. A discussion between a milk
seller and dealer the other day dis
closed the fact that no milk is abso-
Iutely clean which has not been passed
through a separator a machine which
not only separates the butter fat par
TALLY or wholly as operated, but which
losses aside all impurities of every ma
ture, and it was alleged that the pure
milk appeared on the wealthy mans
table after the separator had removed
the impurities and fat and milk were
remixed for use.
If this is true, it is to be seen that
we may have plenty of rich milk with
out having 1t clean; and that pure
milk is much more difficult for US TO
obtain than most people suppose.

RuMMAGE SALES tMPERILLED.

The garretleSs house is now becom-
ing more and more common and the
relics of the past are becoming scarcer
and sca-cer. All past generations have
owed much to the storage capacity of
the attic. for it has been a preserver
of old-fashioned furniture and treas
ures of one kind and another which of
late years have been nearly worth their
weight in gold.
We are now told that. garrets are
not provided for, as a rule, in the
architecture of the modern dwelling
They are impossible in the modern
apartment house Whether they occu-
py dwelling or flat, housekeepers in our
times find it inconvenient, or entirely
out of the question, to give storage
room to the old things when the new
things take their place, unless it is the
case as frequently, that the new
things are the costly old things which
housekeepers of other generations
stored away in their garrets. Knowing
that they would sometime come into
use or into style again.
Consequently some people are be-
moaning the fact that this generation
appears to be cut off from sending
down to future generations curiosi-
ties similar to foot-stoves, warming
pans, cranes, iron-dogs and brass
knockers. such as have come
down to u.s. Since conservation is the
order of the day, way must be pro-
vided to turn over to the future articles
of vertu which may figure in the an
tique collections of the next century.
The hope is expressed that the getting
back to the soil may prove to be get
ting back to the garnet, which means
a continuous support of the antique
collection fad and an always finger
ing opportunity for a rummage sale.

THE FAMILY NEWSPAPER.

II is more than likely that some one
IS surprised by what they see in The
BuNetin every day and disappointed
over what may be omitted A news
paper is not the editors ideal of
family 1ourhal-it cannot be one mans
paper It caters to the tastes of all
classes of people. and the sport and
the reii9ioz4st the sensationalist and
perhaps even the anarchist expect to
see something therein daily which
rieases them. A newspaper which is
popular must cater to all tastes with
in the realm of decency and forget
that any class has prejudices or is too
narrow 10 recognize or appreciate the
breadth and usefulness of such a daily
visitor.
On this point the Meriden Journal
says The man at the head of the
ueper and those who assist him in the
various departments may have their
journalistic ideals and be guided by
them to a certain extent IN the per-
Torrance of their work bat they al
ways have to keep in mind not so
much what they themselves want as
what the people. who are to read the
paper and form It's support want. To
cyzucze an exchange" says The Journal,
"A newspaper is made for men of
many minds, and each one reads what
NEST interests him and not necessarily
what is most profitable AS the editor
cannot give ala sports. fashions, Cos
sips, scandals, hosrors and SO on to
greeHy the tastes of those whose minds
never get beyond such things, he must
have before him the image of sort
n composite mind to whom he appeals
one that Will read a little of everything
aSH not all Of anything"
This tells the story very well. The
composite mind is what an editor must
cater 10 and the wonder is that editors
do it-ED wall
