Railroad Rates to Atlantic City.

At a regular session of Fairbanks
Post, II. Department of Michigan, G..
A. r., Aug. Is, 1910, the undersigned
were chosen a committee authorized to
draft and furnish newspapers for pub
LEGATION a protest in behalf of the Post
(and incidentally in behalf of all Posts
in the country against the rates of
fares to and from the National En-
campment at Atlantic City.
In years gone by a rate of one cent
mile, has been given to the general
public on such occasions, the low fare
being inspired, it WAS said, by a senti-
fnent of regard for the survivors of tho
grand old army. If it is true that SEN
timent begot actions in the past, when
the ranks were longer, how much more
fitting must be the intrusion Of senti-
ment in business now, when the ines
are rapidly fading to extinction! The
exhibition of sentiment over the dead is
con.mendable, but a practical demon
stration to the living warns into activ-
ity the better nature of both giVer and
the recipient spreading its salutary in
auence broadcast We are not aware
that the transportation companies have
suffered financial loss in the past while
favoring the veterans, therefore are
not ready to assume, without inside
knowledge, that they will at this day
(tho conditions have changed some
what) be losers should they continue
the same line of admirable conduct.
Even admitting that there would be no
tangible profit in dollars and cents, we
are fain to believe that the moral ef-
feet upon the whole country would be
salutary, in that it would tend to stifie
the socialistic idea that the stockhold-
ers of our splendid lines of ransporta-
ton have no regard for anything but
the dollar, therefore should have their
| incomes curtailed by low fares and
freight rates, coupled with high taxes,
and little consideration given to the in
| dispensable benefits conferred on the
| people thru their investments of capi-
| tal-Chas. K. Radcliffe, John l.. Wild

connection, so focused public attention
upon the rich pickingS that claims at
torneys obtain from the Indians that
the President believed there would be
a strong public sentiment back of the
new plan. Some of the largest attor-
lneys fees in the history of law prac-
Etice in the United States have been
made in Indian claims.
| There have been no visits of Cabinet
officers to Beverly on business for quite
| two weeks; in fact, since Secretary OF
State Knox departed. Secretary Mac
| Veagh, as already stated, came on So
Icial visit; but the matters interesting
I the President of late have been more
of a political than an administrative
nature, and there has been little to
bring cabinet members here. One-third
of all the Cabinet is still away from the
mainland. Secretary Dickinson has not
returned from his long trip to the Phil
| ippines. Messrs. Wickersham and Ma
gel are still in Alaska, but are expected
to bring back lot of information about
Alaska that will be of value to the
President iii the administration of af-
| fairs in that distant Territory.
secretary of the Navy Meyer has
made very few visits to Beverly this
Summer in spite of his proximity at
Hamilton. This is due to the fact that
he now has his new organization run
ming smoothly and has few matters to
bring to the attention of the President.
He conducted an inspection of the At
lantie battleShip fleet recently down at
Provincetown and Rockport, and in the
| Autumn plans to proceed with still fur
ther reforms. There will probably be
some notable changes in the organlZa-
ton and administration of the Marine
Corps along with the nomination of a
new Commandant. in late October or
early November.
The Postal Savings Banks.
The comment about the installation
of postal savings banks in a hurry
seems to have subsidized, and PoStmas-
ter General Hitchcock appears to have
had his way that the banks should not
be inaugurated till the preparations are
thoroly made and everything possible
done to prevent the experiment from
being a failure. He urged vigorously
that the enemies of the banks would be
pleased to have the experiment entered
upon hastily, because there would then
be additional opportunity for criticism
and more prospect of obtaining a repeal
| of the law A few banks will probably
be put into operation along in October.
President Taft continues to have glo-
rious North Shore weather for his sum
mer vacation. All the old residents
along the North Shore say it is not
within their recollections when there
was such stretch of splendid days.
There has not been a rainstorm all
Summer long, and yet there have been
numerous showers-thunder storms,
the natives call them-and 1t has rained
hard several times over night, but by
early forenoon has always cleared away,
and there has not been single day
when it was not good golfing.
With the excellent prospects for a
golden Autumn the President is looking
| forward to enjoyment of that splendid
season on the North Shore. He will
find pleasure in September and October
golfing and in the automobile rides thru
the brown woods. a glorious feature of
this section at that season of the year.

Reform i'm Indian Affairs.

The President has approved of a plan
for eliminating the laws delays and the
payment OF great fees in Indian cases
which he hopes to put into operation
before very long. The scandals in Okla
homa now being investigated by COM
mittee of Congress, have impelled the
President to do -s,mething to protect
the Indians from the rapacity Of attor-
neys. He believes that there are Gov
ernment officials in the Interior De-
partment who can handle all these In
dian cases satisfactorily and at very
small cost to the Indians themselves.
The Commissioner of Indian Affairs,
Hon. Robert G. Valentine, has made
two visits recently to the President S
cottage for a discussion of this new
plan AT his last visit he brought a de-
tailed plan which has not been made
public yet. The President intends to
put it out soon. He would have put il
into his st. Paul conservation speech,
but for the fact that he does not want
TO make that speech too long and that
he has a great deal to say on other
subjects that are more appropriate to
that occasion.
