ERRORS IN MAGNETIcs CHART.

Take the Post-0ffice
Z. Out of Politics

In attempting to charge up the deficit in his
Department against the magazines the Postmaster
General has done the country a genuine, even if an
unintentional, service. He has drawn attention to
the necessity for a thorough reorganization of the
Postal Department. He has emphasized the inn
%portance of taking the Post Office out of politics
for all time.
The Fifty-ninth Congress authorized an inves-
tigation of postal affairs, and a joint commission,
headed by Senator Penrose and Representative
Overstreet, made a thorough investigation of the
whole subject. AS a result, the Overstreet bill,
which contains many excellent recommendations,
was presented. 1t is not from guesswork that we
have concluded that the Department is in need of
radical reorganization, but from the official reports
of this Joint Congressional Postal Commission
and of the disinterested accountants hired by it to
investigate the business methods of the Depart
ment. We quote from these reports, remember
ing that the findings and criticisms are not ours,
but those of Congressional Commission and its
authorized agents. First read these recommended
tons from the preliminary report of the Joint
Postal Commission, in this weeks number of

Man and Wife Held as Poisoners.

Charged b. an information from
Connecticut With poisoning a whole
dinner party at Darien with arsenic,
age, a French butler, and his wife,
Honorne, were arrested in New York
city by Detective Brown, from police
headquarters, and William H. Bren-
nan, chief of police of Stamford, Conn.
Pierre and his wife were engaged at
an employment agency in this city by
William l.. Searles, who is a retired
wool MERCHANT. The butler. according
to Chief Brennan's story, wasvfound
to be unsatisfactory, and Mrs. Searles
discharged him on the morning of
Sept. 6. HOnorine, who had been a
maid servant in the house. decided to
go with her husband. and the two re-
turned to this city.
That night Ida Pinnow, the Searles'
cook, made biscuits for a dinner party
at which there were seven people. I'M
mediately after the dinner all the
party became violently i'll. Doctors
were called in and said that the din
ers were suffering from arsenic poi
soning. After heroic treatment every
one recovered.
Investigation of this wholesale sick
ness ended when there was discovered
in the -four barrel from which the
-four tina went into the biscuits had
been taken a liberal sprinkling OF a
powder that contained arsenic.

Jafs's Attitude on Second Term.

Taft's attitude toward a second term
Ia substantially this He isn't actively
seeking a second term. He is devoting
himself solely to the duties of his Of
fee and to the redemption of the
pledges made in the Republican ma
tional platform. He has found the du-
ties of his office eXacting, if not irk-
soc, but he hasn't said, as has been re-
ported, that he was willing to step
aside in 1912. On the contrary, the
president will respond to a opll for a
second term if he is satisfied that his
friends and the country want him. He
has not thought of deserving his
friends.
This is substantially the attitude
that President Taft outlined to his
supporters before he left Washington,
and his mind has not changed. The
president himself declined to comment
on the reports that have been publish
ed of his willingness to stand aside in
1912, but his attitude is well known
to his friends.
