CHANGEABlE Mr.. TAFT.

When he insurgents" were fighting
for what they believed to be right In
defiance of the Republican machine,
headed by Messrs. Aldrich and Can
non. President Taft openly attempted
10 discipline the rebels by Withholding
from them the privilege of dispensing
federal patronage. Now the President
has repented. and co-aes forth with
this announcement:
The President has concluded that
it is his duty now TO t-eat all Repub-
lican congressman and senators alike
without any distinction He will new
follow the usual rule in Republican
congressional districts and States and
follow the recommendations made ID
Republican congressman and senators
Of whatever shade of political opinion,
only requiring that the men recon-
mCnded shall be good men, the most
competent and the best f;ted for .hc

The attempt TO bes; the insu'-
gents into line was a dismal failure
instead of -Sringi6s beneath -the lash
snd begging fer. mercy. thc. Insult
gents have grown stronger and added
"a their numbers dag BY day. And.
whai is more. i; is now apparent that
the next house will be Democratic and
that without the aid Of the rebels me

GOOD COUNCIL COMMITTEES.

This paper feels that the presidents
OF both branches Of the city council
are TO be congratulated upon their
committee appointments. Excellent
Judgment has been used by Mr. Jones
and Or Longan in their efforts to
place each member where he will be
of the greatest possible service to the
city. And while some fine men were
lest by the council this year. we be-
lleve that, taken as a whole. the city
never has had better legislative
body than at present. With the mem
beers judiciously placed for committee
work. our CITY government ought to be
conducted as wisely and as economi-
cally as is possible under our an
tcquated system.

man q the board Of aldermen's
finance committee membership. DIR.
Iongan gave most cOmmendable eX-
ample of observation-disclosures. Mr.. West
is one of the most efficient and active
Of the city's legislators and as he has
served two years as chairman of the
finance committee ii was eminentiy
proper that he should continue on that
yet every body knows that

Lifting Of the Army Lid.

laying bare army conditions as they
exist today is neutralized in a meas
ure by the accompanying statement
that Mai Gen. Wood has already TAX

cessity for an immediate restoration
OF the army to a proper state of dis
cipline and efficiency admits of no
hesitation or halfway measures. Only
by such a policy as Gen. Wood an

in the service be regained. Gen.
