h 7he Halls of Congress
BY TAV,
BY TAV. - Special Washington Correspondence.

''Show mo candidate who stands for Can nonism and Aldrichism, and I will show you statesman who stands for progressive legisla- tion and against gang rule in congress- Votes cast for standpatters are votes cast for good government" "
 Standpat republicans declare they can easily imagine hearing Colonel Roosevelt, with char acteristic snap of teeth, eXpound this brand of philosophy from the stump in the approaching congressional elections.
 But the progressive republicans, while per sisting that they have equally as vivid imagina- tions as the standpatters, declare that it is an absolute impossibilty for them to imagine that Colonel Roosevelt will say anything of the kind. Quite on the other hand, in fact the progress sives express the belief that the African hunter is perhaps even now coining some new, terrible adiectives with which to eXcOrcate the Cannon and Aldrich followers.
 And there you are! Each wing of the c. o. P. still professes to believe the ex-presdent will defend their respective principles in the coming elections It looks as if one or the other of the factions is to be disappointed. Or will T. R. be able to effect one grand blend out of the assort- ed varieties of political strains? Time alone, 1t appears will answer this question, as no one seems to have any authentic information as to algning himself either with or against the Taft Aldrich- Cannon oligarchy..
 *
 The republican national congressional com mttee hopes to be able to book the ex-president for number of speeches in the west during the fall campaign. This hope, of course, is based on the expressed belief that Roosevelt will sup port the stalwarts.
 Efforts by the Cannon and Aldrich repub- licans to defeat the progressives and independ ent men of both houses are once more attracting

THE VOICE OF THE GRANDFATHER


 Among the newspaper exchanges of The Sll- yer Belt is one which never misses an oppor- tunity to urge the cause of standpatism in poll- tics, to oppose any proposed eXertion of the power of government for the common good, to assail as sociaIistic' or ''paternalistic" every measure that looks to the good of the many, and to condemn as ''confiscatory" or 'anarchistlc" every measure that proposes to curtail special privileges or to set a limit upon the opportunity to despoil the worker of the fruits of his labor.
 In the issue of that newspaper just arrived is an editorial that begins thus "It is both anus ing and ptiful to listen to the way some men try to show that this generation is going to the dogs" Then it goes on laboriousy to prove that conditions now are better than they used to be.
 Of course conditions are better than they used to be- Of course too, things are going to be better in the future than they are now. Always conditions grow better, and they always will grow better until the millennium is achieved.
 But the improvement comes in spite of and not because of the standpat newspaper, states man or citizen. If the country has listened to such advice as that which this eulogist of the present is handing out daily there never would have been any progress. If the country listens to such advice now there never will be any prog ress. You would think by its contrast of the con ditons of yesterday with those of today that there is no possibility of further improvement. There is possibility of improvement. There is possibility of improvement; not only possibility of it, but a,certainty of it. And it is just as cer tain that improvement will come with the stand batter opposing it at every step
 Today is much better than yesterday, and hatto tbap Hav bafOrp Today the standpatter points to the progress made since yesterday, and fights against making tomorrow better still Yesterday the standpat- ter was pointing to the progress made since day before yesterday, and fighting the attempts that made the improvement of today possible. And so it goes, clear back into the mists of an tiquity.
 Always the progressive pushes forward, and always the reactionary pulls back. And that's a wise dispensation of Providence, too. If all were radicals we should go so fast that we would surely tumble over a precipice and into an abyss of some sort If all were reactionaries stagnation and dry rot would be their achieve ment. So there are both; a force to pull us ahead and force to hold back: and the force that pulls ahead fortunately is a little stronger than the force that holds back.
 The reactlonary has hls uses, therefore, put that doesn't mean that he should be made cap tain and given full control. That would be stagnation, and stagnation means decay. When he tells us how much better today is than yes terday, we should tell him that that is no reason why tomorrow shouldn't be better than today; and we should make it clear to him that as the progress since yesterday was gained against his protests, the progress of tomorrow will be made inspite of his protests.

attention. It is no longer a secret that the re- election of every man in the house who has fought Cannon, and that the same effort is to be directed against the members of the senate who have refused to follow the lead of Aldrich Pres ldent Taft is in full sympathy with the plans of the campaign committed They have been dis cussed at the White House, and no move is be- ing made without the president $ knowledge and consent.
 An interesting inside view of the political out look in far away Maine, is contained in the fol lowing excerpts from letter just received by the writer from the Hon. Fred Emery Beane, chairman of the Main democratic state commit tee:
 "Our presidential and gubernatorial elections for the past eight years prove to my mind that this state is the place to look for results, pro- vided we had the funds with which to properly organize.
 "I thoroughly believe if fifty thousand dol lars could be raised outside of this state with the funds which we can raise, democratic gov ernor could be elected and the legislature so or ganized as to defeat the return of Senator Hale. It would strike me from business point of view that the defeat of Senator Hale would be worth at least this amount to the country at large
 Evidently the democratic congressional and national committees do not study situations are unwilling to travel in new paths and are afraid of blazing their way through unknown terri tories
 "Our municipal elections recently prove the dissatisfaction existing with republican leaders, principles and platforms. The elections to fol- low next Monday will further emphasize this fact I trust may live long enough to see the state redeemed from such leaders as. Hale and Burleigh.'
 
 "The secretiveness of the Taft administra- tion will be one of the points that will be raised by the democrats in the congressional elections this fall, :" said Chairman James T. Lloyd of the democratic national congressional committed "The rule that nobody but the heads of depart ments can give out information to members of congress or anybody else has worked much an noyance to members of congress and has given something that the democrats can attack with reasonable certainty of getting good results.

WAYS in Which Children Help.

Children should never be required
to do, housework 10 the extent a
housekeeper must do it, for the
strength of growing child should be
applied almost wholly to duties at
school. A growing child cannot do
mental and hard physical labor at
the same time. Wiping dishes and
assisting in dusting do not interfere
with school work, and are really
good exercise. But the young girl
who is compelled to rise early, pre-
pare breakfast, assist with the fam
lily washing or ironing and prepare
herself for school will lose out some
place.. Children can do many little
things, however, to lessen the work
of their mothers. First Of all, they
should be taught to put clothes away
and leave their rooms comparatively
tidy. II lamps are used in the house.

REFRtGERAToRS.

Nothing Is SO dangerous to the
health of the household as refriger.
ator that is not perfectly clean.
1t means possible typhoid fever, fol
one Thing, and other diseases less
dangerous, but troublesome.
In the first place the waste pipe
should not be connected with the
drain. 1t is more trouble to empty s
pan once or twice day, but to have
the food supply connected with ths
house drain is certainly undesirable.
The refrigerator should be washed
out at least once week. and twice
IT, hot weather, with strong ammonia
water. The shelves should be taken
out quickly and washed, too. Rinse in
clean, warm water, and wipe dry. This
is important, as one of the properties
of the perfect refrigerator is dryness,
which helps to preserve the food.
Every morning take out the food
left from the day before and examine
it. If it is. the least bit tainted il
should be thrown away at once.
Charcoal or a lump. OF dry lime
should be kept in the food box. They
absorb impurities and act as disin-
fectant. ); ~.
Mill. and butter should always be
kept in a covered crock, or otherwise
protected. They are extremely perish
able, and easily absorb the odor OF
other foods.
OF course. all foods with strong
odor should be covered also, and such
things as, pineapple.
Food should always be put away in
china or glass. Tin: and even silver
affect foods when they are kept to-
gether for a number of hours.
Finally, never put food away not.
1t is likely to spoil. and it causes
moisture in the refrigerator.
