NEW ROAD TO DISTINCTION
G. w. Perkins Says Men Who Could
Be Enormously Rich but Won't
viii Have Best Regulations.

George W. Perkins, who has sew
cred his connection with the firm of
j. P. Morgan & Co., in order to de-
vote his time to public work, said the
other day at Union League club
dinner that he had made up his
mind that man could no longer OBJ
tain distinction in America by the
mere making of money-that was
too common.
Mr.. Perkins implied that for the
future the highest and most distin-
gulshed regulations in this country
will be achieved by men who could
be enormously rich but won't-men
who devote exceptional financial tall
ents to the solution of economic
problems-in the interest of the
people. Speaking still more recent
ly before the Quill club, Mr.. Perkins
unfolded his meaning at some
length. He undertook to speak of
corporations, capital, labor and prof
its as If he were financial expert
retained as an attorney for the pub
lie! Nobody will deny that the pub
lie is in sore need of skillful econom-
ic counsel. And if Mr.. Perkins sue
ceeds in establishing his credit as
a disinterested public adviser he will,
indeed, have found new road to
distinction-a path fresh with the
dew of the morning.-New York

Special Washington Letter.

WAsHINGToN, FEBRUARY rs Near
ly one thousand patriots at the Cap
itol are awaiting with deep anxiety the
decision of President Taft relative to
an extra session of Congress. They
are Republican office holders, most of
whom have been on the government
pay roll so long they have come to con-
slider themselves fixtures there. Since
March 4, 1897, the date upon which
William Mckinley succeeded Grover
Cleveland as President, the Republi
can party has been in uninterrupted
control of the House of Representa-
tives. With the return of the Republi-
can party to the majority side of the
Heuse every position in the organiza-
tion of that body, excepting very few
conceded to the minority, was filed by
the appointment of a Republican and
all of these positions have since been
held by Republicans. Congress is the
one branch of the federal govern
ment which has refused to recognize
the merit system. Not civil service
regulation of any character has ever
been enforced in either House or Sen
ate, nor is any examination required
to establish the qualification of an ap-
plicant for capitol appointment. 1t
is at the capitol alone that one may
find au appointive method that sug-
gests the so called 'spoils SYSTEM, of
quarter of a century ago.
If President Taft does not call Con.
gress to meet in extra session every
Republican Office holder in the House
organization will hold his place until
next December, when the Democrats
will reorganize that body. Then the
Democrats will have at their disposal
some of the higest salaried and most
desirable positions in the government
service. The salaries range from that
of the Clerk of the House, Sc, 500 year,
down to the wages of the laborer on
the temporary roll" With the
change in the political complexion of
the House, Pennsylvania will lose the
office of Clerk, which for 36 years has
been filled by Pennsylvania. Ed
ward Mcpherson, of Gettysburg, was
Clerk for 16 years. When the Demo-
Gratis returned to control the Clerkship
was given to James Kerr, of Clearfield,
succeeded by Major Alexander Nc
Dowell, of Sharon, who has held the
place for nearly sixteen years. This
time the Keystone State has no candi-
idate for Clerk and the Office is expect
ed go to southern state.
1t will be no easy task for the Demo
Gratis to fill the places at their disposal.
The Democracy has been separated
from the patronage trough 80 long that
office hungry party workers in every
state will demand appointment. IF
there were ten thousand places instead
of one thousand to be filled there still
would not be Yearly enough to go
round.

little hatchet." Several other games
were played and "A short business meet

ANCESTORS or M.oc' EoM
Great Emperor of France Was De-
scended on Both Sides From Dis
tnqulshed Italian Families.

On the paternal side he was de-
scended from one of the most illus
trious families Of Florence. Civil
dissension occasioned many of the
noble families to emigrate from time
to time, among whom was the an
cestor Of that branch of the Bona
parte family from which Napoleon
was descended.
When the island of Corsica be-
came subject to France, Carolo Bo-
naparte, the father of Napoleon,
whose profession was the law, was
chosen to represent the nobility of
the country. He afterward received
the appointment of "procureur de
roi," or kings attorney general, at
Ajaccio. Napoleon was educated at
the Ecole Royale MiItaire at Paris,
an institution founded by Louis XIV.
for the education of the sons of noble
families with small fortunes for the
military service; and his eldest sis
ter was educated at the academy of
st. Cyr, which was foundation for
the education of young ladies of
noble family.
On the maternal side the descent
of Bonaparte is still more distin-
guished. The family of Ramolini,
to which his mother Madame Bona
parte, belonged, is one of the most
ancient in the republic of Genoa, and
allied not only to all the principal
families of that republic, but to the
families of most of the great poten-
tates of Europe.
