NEWELL TO GO.

Secretary Ballinger will not be
blamed if he carries out his snake
killing plan to the fullest extent. No
man who is not loyal to his chief has
any business in the departments. He
hinders rather than helps. Secretary
Ballinger has been very unfortunate
in this respect
While the interior department is to
be purified by the dismissal of treacn-
erous subordinates, there is a move
ment on foot to place supervision CT
the government irrigation works N the
hands of the army engineers. Prcsi-
dent Taft has been very favorably i'm
pressed with the work IF Lieutena nj
Colonel Goethals down on the isthmus
and desires to use some of the other
officers.
A bill was introduced in the House
last week under the terms of which
the President, in his discretion. may
detail any engineer officer Of the army
to supervise or inspect any engineer
ing project of the government. The
measure went through the lower
house without trouble. and if the
Senate takes favorable action work on
the irrigation projects VIII be rushed
to completion under direction of army
engineers
The plan is the Presidents. IIav-
ing had remarkable success in digging
the Panama canal, Mr.. Taft proposes
to take tie reclamation work in hand.
Just at present this work is dragging
and Congress has not made provision
for completion Of the projects.
According to the statements of Sec
rotary Ballinger, s5O.OoO.eo0 has been
spent on the twenty-seven projects
now under way. and it will take $40
100000 more to bring them to COM
pletion- A bill providing for the is
suance of sso.00o.00o in bonds, to be
repaid through the future sales Of
public lands, which has been passed
by the Senate and is pending in the
House, is expected to furnish the
means for pushing most of the prsj-

They Were Tennesseeans.

It had to do with the captivity of
Governor 1sham G. Harris and Senator
Bate of Tennessee in the penitentiary
at Nashville as prisoners Of war during
the SOS. After an unaccustomed period
of abstinence, somewhat longer than
that preserved by the governors of
North and South Carolina, the govern
or and the senator cast about for a
means for the alienation of their con-
Stunning thirst. In the course Of time
an old coffee pot and other necessities
fell into their hands, and from their
ratlons they managed to save out a lit
tie corn now and then.
From this point IL is as well to let

MOTHERS DAY.

There was one governor who de-
ehned to set apart day to be known
as Mothers day, on the ground that
among right-thinking people every
day is mothers day. His observation
was no doubt true-every day should
be mothers day. Nevertheless, the
setting apart of a special occasion was
s-beautiful idea and met with the full
and complete approval of all right
thinking people. the grouehy governor
not being included.
II the fierce struggles of life men
are prone to become hardened and
calloused- They lose the tender feel
ings of their youth while engaged in
the exactions Of a business career, or
while trying to establish a name in one
of the professions If there is one
thought above all others calculated to
reawaken tender sentiments or loving
remembrance, that thought is of
''mother," over whose grave in the
churchyard the grass has been grow
ing for so many years
There is no parallel feeling. In all

THE RAILROAD BILL.

The railroad bill will hold sway in
both Senate and House this week
Whether it can be brought to a vote.
in either is an open question. The
long and short haul amendment prom
ises TO give much trouble in the upper
chamber, and the division will not be
on party lines. Senators from the sea-
Fboard states, whose people have been
unduly favored in the matter OF
freight rates, will vote to allow the
railroads to continue to discriminate.
Senators from the Interior, whose
constituents have been overcharged
for generation, win fight for the
amendment, Messrs. Smoot and Suth-
erland among the number. According
to the press forecast, the Democrats
are depended upon to vote for 1.-THE
railroads, enough of them, at least, to
knock out the amendment in which
the interior points are so vitality in
terested.
The President is not inclined to
make the long and short haul amend
ment a test of party loyalty, but upon
other points he is said TO be insistent
upon maintaining party discipline. The
stock and bond sections Of the bill
have been bitterly attacked. Mr.. Taft,
however, and Attorney General Wick
ersham are pressing for their reten-
ton, and the regulars are expected to
maintain an unbroken line.
A rumor has been going the rounds
for the past week that President Taft
would veto the railroad bill unless it
measured up TO his expectations. So
far as known, the President has not
indicated what his action in the prem
ises will be. Just at present he is en-
gagged in trying to get the members of
the party together, with some show of
success.

A Tragedy of Whiskers.

Simeon Ford, New Yorks after-din-
her speaker, said the other day, apropos
of whiskers:
Il have shaved off my whiskers and
ii makes me look younger. People now
eye me more appreciatively than they
used to do. /. unlike poor Tom Angus,

tom Angus was an architect of
Tombstone. When they expected Mrs.
Langtry in Tombstone Tom was APP
pointed to decorate the railway station
and the streets. He did so, and made
good job of it, and after the mayor
had congratulated him, he said:
well Mr.. Mayor, since you like my
work, introduce me to Mrs. Langtry at
the banquet, will you?'
Sure 1 WILL said the mayor. but
you must knock that spinach off your

so Tom removed his rich whiskers,
and that night among the banqueters
his white, nude chin was a conspicuous
object.
But the mayor didn't introduce him
to the beautiful Mrs. Langtry after all.
Between every course and all through
the speeches Tom kept winking and
nOdding to his honor, but it was to no
purpose. He didn't get introduced.
And the next day. after Mrs. Lang

THE GEORGES.

The new king OF England comes to
xhe throne Of his ancestors while in
She prime of life, and is said tc he very
popular with his subjects. The laws
will continue to be made by parlia-
5nent, however. and George V Will
have little TO do except open exl1ibi

years.
George the second was also born at
Hanover, November 10. 1888. AID died
in LONDON, October %, I7se, his reign
lasting thirty three years. An attempt
was made during tire reign OF the first
George TO place the old pretender on
the throne, known in history as the
uprising of 1915. The rebellion broke
out in Scotland. but was speedily sup
pressed. Another attempt was made
Nm behalf of ,he young prerender dur

This rebellion was also quickly
stamped out. Since that time the
descendants of the Ele,t5r or Hanover
have been firmly seated
The third George was the first one
o. the family who was dinstinctively
British He was born liz London and
died at Windsor after reign Of sixty
years, during which time the Amer
rcan colonies were lost. This George
had better claim to the title of gen.
Hleman than either his father or
grandfather. He was faithful hus
fband and. otherwise moral and up
right. He became hopelessly insane in
ISL, and England was governed by
the prince regent, afterwards George
the Fourth.
During the regency and also the
reign of the fourth George the British
court was the most degraded in Eu-
hope. the king being the most unprin-
cipled Ibertine of the age. He was
succeeded by William the Fourth, and
then came Victoria.
1t was the reign of Victoria that
proved the most glorious epoch in the
history of Great Britain. No dissolute
characters were tolerated at court, and
ahe social life of the people was raised
90 the highest degree.
1t is nearly 200 years since the
Elector of Hanover was called to the
British throne and became George the
First. The power of the country has
been constantly extended until it occu-
pies a place in the front rank of ma
tions. So far as the Georges were
concerned, they added nothing to the
glory of the country, the people, IN
der wise leadership, being entitled TO
all the credit for whatever was accom-
piished.
The new monarch may live long and
happily, but he is ruler only in name.

NOT ALL FREE TRADERS.

During the debate on the Payne
Aldrich bill in both Senate and House.
the measure was defended by Demo-
Gratis. Whenever it became possible
to secure protection for some indus
| try in the southern states, represent
atives from those states became ram
pant protectionists, and many of the
items in the bill as finally passed were
placed there by these same Demo-
Gratis
The constituents of these men are
also protectionists when their own IN
terests are involved, just as much SO
as any Republican in the land. The
only difference is that the Republicans
are protectionists from principle.
ism in the matter.
Down in Florida, the people usually
vote the Democratic ticket. The peo-
pie of Louisiana and South Carolina do
likewise. They profess the Demo-
cratic faith. But they never become
so firmly welded to that faith that
they neglect TO secure all the protec-
ton possible for their states. Some OF
their statesmen in late years have be-
come avowed protectionists and have
INDUCED in some pretty plain talk to
their colleagues.
Representative Clark Of Florida is
protectionist Democrat Some of the
members of that party were disposed
to deny his claim to Democracy dur
ing the debate last summer. His re-
ply was much to the point:
want TO say this, Mr. Chairman, in
conclusion ] do not care any
thing about the SCOTS and jeers
of these people. 1 came TO my
own conclusion, and my people
have come TO theirs. You folks
do not eject me to Congress. You
do not send a Representative
from the Second district of Flor
ida here to represent that dis
trict. I am here to represent the
225,000 OF 100000 people in that
great district which sweeps the
entire eastern coast of Florid.
There is not a state in the Union
that is not represented in that
district by some citizen from
that state.

respect They have come from

ing the principles of the progress
sives movement from the state and
national points of view. These I
considered vital for the success of
the progressive movement, and not
so much Of my personality in the
campaign. In my speeches i said
very little for myself.
THE state administration was
fought by Egan and Elrod along
lines that were similar. Both men
read copies Of letters which Mr..
Richards had sent all over
the state and which attacked the
administration on the same basis
that my opponents did. Many peo-
pie understood that the administra-
ton had nothing to do with the
creations Of the departments which
the law required to be filed, and the
most OF these were paid for by the
men who we're engaged in the busi-
ness that was protected, and not
from the treasury Of the state.
THE primary law vas really on
trial in this campaign and on cleo
tion day the democrats in many parts
OF the state took advantage Of the
opportunity to 90 into the republi-
can booths and cast their ballots
for Egan. In many precincts We
know Of where the republican vote
was light and had always been 80
was Increased three and four times
the usual number"
"It has been a difficult matter to
get much Of a line on the situation
up to election day. It has been the
experience Of the progressive COM
mittee that It was nearly impossible
to get any idea of the Egaa strength.
It was divided into loud takers and
the silent ones. It has been sug-
gested that the trouble between the
factions Of the party caused many
men to vote for Egan, with the idea
Of possibly trying to settle the
trouble in that way"
