"Men who ride hobbies make excel.
lent servants, but mighty poor mas.
ters." This declaration was made re-
Gently by Speaker Cannon at the
"hobby night entertainment Of the
National Press club In Washington.
Among the other "hobbyists'' who
spoke during the evening were Willis
L. Moore Of the weather bureau, DR..
Harvey Wiley. Clifford Pinchot, Com
mander Robert e. Peary and Con-
gresham Champ Clark.
Speaker Cannon declared that his
"hobby" was in watching other mems
hobbies" The men Of one idea, he
declared, are all good men. and he
wished them success and long life, al
though he said that 1T makes one
uncomfortable often in watching 9TH
er mems hobbies
Taking up the speakers who had
preceded him. he declared that DR.. Wi
ley was oil right, but that If he had
been allowed to have his own way
entirely he would have had everybody
afraid to eat anything for fear Of be-
ing poisoned; that conservation was a
good thing, but that he was not afraid
Of all the coal being consumed or all
the timber being used up, and that
much had been done in the way Of
conservation from a practical stand
point for many years. AS for Com
mander Peary, he was glad eau
casian had reached the north pole, but
while Commander Peary had the glory
DR.. Cook had the money.
Ex-President Roosevelt he called
"the greatest press agent that ever
lived" He asserted that more good
legislation had been passed during his
seven years in the White House than
during any other similar period in the
history Of the United States, except
during that Of the civil war. But
suppose we had passed all the laws
that he recommended in his mes
sages," he said. ''The budget of the
country would be many times what
It is now"
The speaker declared that he found
great enjoyment in watching the men
who had "hobbies," but that it would
hardly do to let them be at the head
If things.

HIGHER PRICES FOR YEARS.
SO Professor jerks Predicts If Gold
Production Continues.

Professor J. W. jerks of Cornell uni
versity, at Ithaca, N. Y, agrees with
those economists who ascribe the in
crease in the cost of living to the in
creased production of gold. To large
number Of farmers at Ithaca for farm
ers' week at the State College Of Agri-
culture he said the other night:
money is no more fixed in value
than the articles it purchases. There
is no sign Of letup in the increased
production of gold, and unless some
change is made in our monetary sys-
tenn we may expect prices to 60 up
for years to come"

necessarily be deficient in humor, and
in his Saturday Evening Post article
DR.. Hutchinson presents his facts
about the "blue blood" delusion with
fine irony.
All the tumult about the reprimand
to a midshipman for taking q nurse
maid to q hop started over the fact
that this particular nurse maid was
the daughter of professor who
taught Mr.. Taft at Yale. The pre-.
sumption of course, is that daughter
of professor at Yale is ipso facto a
person OF refinement equipped to move
in polite circles.
The same assumption marks the
letter of Washington lady who
writes in commentator of Congress.

that she has suffered from lack Of
social recognition in the navy because
she earned her own living, though she
is "the daughter of lieutenant
colonel (deceased) of the United States

Revolutionary officer and the great
great-grandniece of a signer of the

Would reach the moon and back,
And we've got locomotives
To haul them down the track.
Our buildings scrape the heavens.
And when the stars get tired
They roost upon their ridgepoles
And shine by being wired.

don't notice how great is its speed, ant
IN inventory OF the peoples gains IL
the last few years will give encourage
ment to, new efforts toward th'
achievement Of real democracy-rea
rule by and for the people.
It is only few years since thu
direct primary was an experiment and
an innovation, scoffed at by those in
power and scarcely interesting the
average voter. Now more than hall
the states twenty.nine, to be exact
have it in one form or another. These
states are Alabama, Arkansas, Cali.
fornia, Colorado, Florida, Georgia,
Idaho, Illinois, Iowa, Kansas, Ken
lucky, Michigan, Minnesota, Mis-
sissippi, Missouri, Nebraska, New
Hampshire, New Jersey, North Caro-
lima, North Dakota, Oklahoma, Ore
gon, South Carolina, South Dakota,
Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Washing
ton, Wisconsin.
Not so many years ago the initiative
and the referendum we're playthings of
Populism, little feared by those who
occupied the seats of the mighty be-
cause the conservative people OF the
country showed little inclination to
take them up. Now eight states have
adopted them - Arkansas, Colorado,
Maine, Missouri. Montana, Oregon,
Oklahoma and South Dakota. Other
states are on the verge of adopting
them. Minnesota would have them
by this time if they had reached vote
in the legislature at its last session
and it will have them soon. Besides
these eight states, four others have
submitted constitutional amendments,
to be voted upon by the people at the
next election, authorizing the initia-
tive and the referendum. These states
are California, Nebraska, Washing
ton and Wisconsin.
The Oregon plan of direct election of
United States senators has been
adopted in seven states: California,
Minnesota, Nebraska, Nevada, Ohio,
Oregon and Wisconsin. Meanwhile
an amendment to the Federal Consti.
tuition providing for the direct election
of senator's is close to a vote in the
United States senate, and it is likely |
to be submitted to the states for rati- !
tication very soon. 1t will be ratified
very promptly, and thus will be swept
away an ancient source Of corruption
and treachery.
In four states-New Jersey, Me-
braska, Oregon and Wisconsin-the
people have right to express their
choice for president at the primaries
The recall has thus far been adopted
only in Oklahoma, but it has been |
submitted to the people in California
and Washington, and it prevails in
city government wherever the com.
mission plan has been adopted.
The direct primaries, the direct
election of senator's, the initiative, the
referendum and the recall-these are
toots of real democracy. They put
the power IN peoples government
into the hands of the people, where it
belongs. They have forced the alb
diction of the boss and they have
destroyed the cunning machinery the
boss had built up to perpetuate his
power. The packed caucus, the con-
trolled convention, the yellow dog
party ticket-these were the tools of
the boss, and the boss went out oil
business when they did.
Real progress has been made, and
more progress is in sight.

a matter not of economy. but Of sup

that in this state we spend for wages

WILLIS MOORE AND THE WEATHER

Chief Prophet Willis l.. Moore of the
Weather Bureau complains that mo
body ever thanks the weather man for
fair weather. AS he is paid to pre-
diet it, why should he be thanked? If
he produced a fair day. thanks would
be due him but he is merely a prop
het and always without honor when his
weather does not suit one of the sover-
eign people. Further. the Chief Prop
het says that "he is scolded for foul
weather and for predictions that do not
hit the mark" This may not be just,
but it is natural he is known by his
errors and not by his successes. At
the same time, there is this considera-
ton whenever the weather aceords
with the forecast it must please a
great variety and number of people.
suiting their needs and conveniences.
There is never a foul day but Colonel
Moore is thanked fer it. and whether
he guessed it or not. So that there
are compensations in being generally
damned.
The Chief Prophet holds that 80 per
cent. Of his forecasts are right. There
is not another human being in the Uni
ted States who will believe this. The
record may bear him out, but who has
time to go over it. and who that has
been disappointed or oppressed by the
weather when il was not according to
forecast would believe the record?
The weather bureau ought to be right
all the time to be appreciated, and that
is impossible. Says the Chief Prop
net, Providence help the poor forecas-
ter who predicts the wrong weather on
a national holiday. He will never hear
the end of il. especially if he goes
wrong on Inauguration Day. He can
never outlive the memory of his
error" Certainly not. and the public
opprobrium is just. Mr.. Moore, as we
remember. predicted an open, sunny,
wholesome Inauguration Day, and it
showed. hailed. blew and was foul as a
storm on the Styx. 1t was poor
guess. Any man with a memory of In
auguraton Day weather would make
