Senator Carter of Montana has one
ercat legislative hobby. He has a
great many legislative ideas, but only
ono of them causes him TO lie awake
at night. Ont one pops out in all Of
the senator's speeches. This is in
the idea of reform in the postoffice
department.
The Montana senator believes that
not only millions, but scores OF mill
lions, of dollars could be saved each
year If the %postofficc department of
the country was put on "a solid busi-
ness basis.
'If The postoffice department of
this country We're run as the Pennsyl-
vania railroad is run il would cost this
government just 0ne-half what it costs
now declared Senator Carter in "A re-
cent speech on the floor of the sem
ate.
II maintain that the postoffice sys-
tenn lis the greatest cash business
terpriso in this country or any other
country. OF this government or n
other government, on the face of the
earth.
at now costs the. people of the
United states $3.50, 00O. 600 a wear TO

should be run for S125. 0O0. 0u0. or
just one-half of its present cost. It's
systom is all wrong. Instead of our
having the finest postal system we
have The worst In the world and the
costlicst.

pears a considerable number of the

they will not caucus on the details Of

ahead and call the caucus. Otherwise
the postal savings lii, or postal az
ings legislation, is doomed. for the
house leaders do not want a postal
savings bank bill unless they can
shape it 20 suit themselves.
One of tho objections raised to the
substitute bin is that it leaves it in
the authority OF the president TO draw
practically al the postal savings funds
from the communities in which they
are deposited. The bill provides for Il
s per cent reserve FUND. Then il
provides that not exceeding Az per
cent, or half the remainder. may be
Withdrawn from the communities

territory. but may be Withdrawn by
the president for Investment in bonds
or ether securities Of the United States,
but only when in his Judgment the
interests OF the United States so te-
quire."
one or the things against which
the senate insisted on protecting the
bill was the withdrawal Of the postal
savings funds from the local banks
for the purpose Of using them to take
up the 2 per cent bonds. of which the
banks hold about S700, 000. 900.
If q bin gets through the house
which would allow the postal savings
funds to be used TO take up the 2 per

PROBLEM OF WHOLE

Pleased At Last Nights Reception in
St. Louis.

ST. LOUIS, May President
Taft's i've days trip to the middle
west ended here last night and he
left early this morning for Washing
ton, where he is scheduled to arrive
early Friday morning.
1t remained for st. Louis to give
Mr.. Taft the heartiest demonstration
of his present journey.
The city was gaily decorated and
there were cheering throngs wher-
ever the president went. Several
times his motor car was stopped to
receive bouquets. These Mr.. Taft
later sent to St. Luke's hospital and
to the home for incurables.
The apparent warmth of tie re-
ception here seemed to affect the
president and when, at the luncheon
of the Business Mems league late in
the afternoon, President Walker Hill
praised him for appointing Messrs.
Lurton and Hughes to the supreme
court, Mr.. Taft launched into a Wig
orOus speech, paying his respects 20
Bryan for his reported criticism of
Governor Hughes. He decried the
cant of the demagogue" and the
disposition of public journals TO
make unjust charges against men in
public life.
The president last night, as guest
OF the Traffic club of ST. Louis. re-
ferred in a general way to the rail-
road legislation pending at Washing
ton, but said he was not sufficiently
informed of the situation to discuss
it in detail"
Railroads Expensive to Operate.
Mr.. Taft said while he was federal
judge OF the Sixth circuit from
1893 to 1900, it fell to his lot to APP
point receivers for nearly all the rail-
roads in the circuit. He found at
that time what he said a great many
people seem blissfully ignorant Of,
that II takes "a whole lot of money
to run a railroad"
But understand all the railroads
are on a good basis now said he.
land ! hope they will continue so.
Railroads are very much like every
other business. If the receipts do not
come up to expenditures. the red bal
lance grows larger and larger until
there Is nothing before you but re-
ownership. sincerely trust we will
never experience again with respect
to railroads or other business what
we had to go through from 1898 to
1900.
"In those days the railroads were
run entirely according to the law
and a Judge had difficulty even In
keeping his receivers out OF rebates.
But railroads and shippers can now
look each other in the face with the
knowledge they are not engaged in q
violation of law.

know that as the bill was presented
to congress 1t was drawn to conform

BURLINGTON, June 7~.-Open-air
cells for lawbreakers AVE proven such
a deterrent to minor crime that the
city may order the installation of an
outside cell or two in the new City
Hall. Contractors are now remodeling
the old hall, and have removed the
roof, leaving the steel-barred cages ex-
posed to the elements, and offenders
who have had the experience of spend
ing a showery night in such confine-
ment have been willing to sign any
number of pledges to gain their free
DOM. Two tramps who had the eX-
perience of sitting up all night under
umbrellas loaned by the police ex-
pressed their preference for the ball
and chain.
Habitual DRINKS and minor offenders
arrested had the best of the police for
the time when 1t was found hat piles
of debris blocked access to the cells
from all directions. and, as it was
necessary to wait until Monday morn
ing for the laborers to cart away the
trash, the prisoners were liberated with
a reprimand and a threat of "open-air''
treatment if arrested again.

BOYS OF ELIZABETH MAY
SEE THE CIRCUS AFTER ALL.
Mayor Turns Down Protest of
Merchants Against Show.

ELIZABETH, June THE circus
can come to Elizabeth, Mayor Victor
Mravlag said so last night. He stated
positively that he will not accede to the
request of some of the merchants to
intervene and refuse to allow the big
show to exhibit here. This
nlent by Mayor Mravlag has won for
him the praise Of every youngster in
the town, and they now look upon the
clty's chief executive as their friend.
Word went forth that there would be
no circus here next Saturday. This re-
port was caused by the announcement
that merchants in the city had present
ed a petition to the mayor pointing out
that if the circus were allowed to show
here Saturday next they would lose a
considerable sum. They also declared in
the petition that Saturday was their
best day, and thai If the circus was al
lowed to show only a very few would
do any shopping. The petition was
signed by some of the most prominent
merchants in the town.
"Will you comply with the request
of the business men?" Mayor Mravlag
was asked.
"Indeed I will not" emphatically
stated Mayor Mravlag. IF l did |
would have every woman and child
down on me. The boys want the cir
Gus, and if the circus wants to come
let il. Then. I do not see under what
pretext I could order it not to show.
No, sir; l will take no steps to stop the
circus, and may the boys enjoy it,

clever dancers, Mile. Nina
Minar and Monsieur Mykof, heads the
bill at Proctor's Theatre this week ana
provides a fine vehicle for the por-
trayal of Paris Restaurant life as f1c-
ton writer's would have us believe 1t
to be. The exterior of the Moulin Rouge
and the Rat Mort are shown in the
two scenes, and the three dances given
by Mile. Minar and Monsieur Mykot
are such as to rouse great enthusiasm
in the audience. Mile. Minar is the
personifcation of cas- grace ana
suppleness.
Harry Tate and his clever company
in Motoring easily took second hon
ors. 1t seems as though this sketch
would never wear out its welcome.
Its spontaneous humor appeals to
everybody, and the company was
obliged to accept several curtain calls
from the delighted audience. Many of
the people in the house had seen the
nonsensical mixture many times, but,
like old wine, 1t grows better with
age. 1t is a real scream from start to
finish.
A singing sketch by two who could
really sing was another pleasant fea-
ture. Gertrude Bennett Holmes and
Robert Buchanan in "a Woodland
Wooing'' were heartily received. Mr..
Buchanan has a splendid voice which
he knows how to use to the best adj
vantage, and in this he was ably as
sisted by Miss Holmes. The scenery
in his sketch was handsome and the
little playlet was altogether enjoyable.
Mile. Rialta, assisted by Tom Gordon,
q clever singer, appeared in a novel
sketch entitled THE Artists Dream"
and the applause they received was
well deserved, for the sketch was both
tuneful and clever, Mr.. Gordon's sing
ing being especially pleasant, while
Mile. Rialta's poses were easy to look
at Valveno and Trest, a very clever
pair of gymnasts, were on the bill in
place of the Three Sylvesters, who
were unable TO appear. The added
starters proved capable substitutes,
their work being of the highest order.
Others on the bill were Archie Gil
son and Eleanor De Mott in Names
