Deserved Recognition.

To the Editor of the Evening Star;
l read with much interest the differ
ent letters from subscribers which you
print under the head of Rostrums.
These letters usually praise some de-
partment of the city government or
some of the men employed by the city.
/ have read praise for the police, the
firemen, the city officials and most of
the city hospital staff, but they have
forgotten to mention a most important
cog In connection with the hospital.
/ mean the two men who drive the
automobile ambulances belonging to
the hospital. In rain or shine you can
see these men driving through the
streets at a dangerous speed of forty
to fifty miles an hour, in an effort to
save the life or lives of some unfor-
tunate accident victims. While these
men are rarely spoken of by The pa
pers, l think that they do one of the
most important parts of the work.

A POSTAL BANK IN NEWARK.

NV EWARK, with its polyglot population and vast army OF wage
AM earners, ought to be a good field for a postal savings bank.
The savings banks of Newark now hold about ~S350D0O6O
of deposits, while the trust companies also have savings banks
departments that hold a large aggregate. But there are millions
of dollars of savings that never find their way into these banks,
but are either sent to European repositories or concealed by their
owners in secret places and earn no interest. The most timid peo-
pie have faith in the government and its guarantee, and hence the
postal savings bank, with its 2 per cent. interest, will attract boarded
savings and add them to the working capital of the country. And
gradually the untutored immigrants from Southern Europe. will
come to learn that the security of the United States government,
the richest in the world and the most stable, is better than that of
the country from whence they came, and immigrant savings will be
poured into the postal banks. 1t has already been demonstrated
that the postal banks, with their low rate of interest, do not inter
fere with the business of the private banks. Their effect will prove
to be quite the contrary, for they will create a new class of de-
positors out of which many will ultimately resort to the regular
banks in order to get the higher interest rate.

To the Editor of the Evening Star:
1t would seem that after many les
sons in automobile thefts the autoists
of this city would take more carr when
leaving their cars on the streets. There
are several safety locks on the market
now which protect the car in a mea-
sure at least.
At the present time, when the auto
is as common as the bicycle was sew
eral years ago, nearly everybody can
run a machine, and to leave a car un-
protected on the street is as foolish as
it would be to leave a purse on the
street, expecting it would be there
when you returned. Automobile thiev-
ing has made rapid progress and is be-
coming a science. With the aid of sew
eral INSCRIPTIONS garage owners, the
thieves can alter a machine in a few
hours so that its maker would hardly
recognize it.
All this trouble is taken by the

1t sounded like a grizzly scufitng
against the bark with his merciless
paws. l was frozen to h spot. At
the same time / wondered how he had
been able to sneak up On me so close,
because In books the grizzly always
"makes off down the trail with O slow,
numbering gait" The excitement
doesn't come until you rashly wound it
in the ankle and bring 1t to bay.
But before I could die of fright In
my tracks the animal sprang around
on the side of the tree where l was, I
stood my ground, The %ferocious thing
barking at me like mad-chut-chut-
chut! l was still too scared to shoot,
but I could at once see 1t wasn't a
bear. 1t was smaller. A quick review
of all the natural history | ever read
convinced me it was q squirrel. by
which time 1t had got through abusing
me and had gone up the tree. So what
was the use of shooting then after it
had the laugh on me? I reached the
camp all a-tremble and found ma
calmly embroidering q sofa pillow.
It's a wild, mad life!

Deputy Surrogate Charles F. Kocher
tells this one:
You know Indian territory is dry,
very dry. Well, some time ago | was
travelling out that way and while in
the very heart of this very dry terri
tory the engine stopped for water, for,
you see, ever the engine vas dry, and
many of the passengers went gut on
the platform for a stretch. Just be-
fore the train started up again a mys-
terlous looking individual hustled
among the men, slyly displayed a lot
of little TASKS and whispered to those
that looked like possible customers,
'Whiskey. my lear sir, fine whiskey, at
81 a bottle, but it's a life sentence for
me if I'm caught
That fellow" added Mr.. Kocher,
sold enough to make the late Mrs.
Carrie Nation turn twice in her last
resting place. When the buyers gath
cred in the smoker later on, however,
to enjoy their purchases, they learned
with deep disgust that all they had
was just SO much cold tea"
Floyd MacFarland, probably the best
known bicycle rider in the world,
leaves the ranks of bachelors and joins
forces with the benedicts. This comes
as a Surprise to the many friends of
the "Lanky One,'' as he is best known,
because he was always regarded as a
"hater.' MacFarland is without a doubt
one of the few who rides a wheel

for because his demands are always
just.s Not only on this continent is he
known, but also abroad. We wish him

Frederick A. Weimer, chief of the
prosecutors staff of detectives, had a
man before him the other day who was
anxious to go bail for the father of
three children. With him was the weep

that If she pressed the charge she and
the children would go hungry. Her
companion in the detectives office was
a relative. Chief Welmer asked a
pointed question or two and finally the
man produced a note for $25 made to
him by the woman The tender rela-

Good Advertising.

oVOu AtSAh
To the Editor of the Evening Star:
If the opponents of reciprocity IN
Canada are to be believed, reciprocity
will mean a great loss to the country.
They overlook a point that l have
not seen prominently advanced before,
that is. the extensive advertising Sc
cured by Canada through the reci-
proclty agitation.
We read in the magazines about the
extreme methods resorted to by min
ing towns, for instance, to secure ad-
vertising in the newspapers. Proper
advertising is of incalculable value to
them.
Canada, through this reciprocity
movement, has obtained a remarkable
amount of advertising in the news
pages of the American newspapers. A
publicity bureau, working in the inter
ests of Canadian advertising, could
have expended millions of dollars with
out bringing the fact of Canada's ex-
istence and SO prominently
before the American people.
If a little boom town In the West
finds it profitable to advertise widely
through it's publicity agent, surely
Canada, a vast country of only partly
developed resources will find this I'M
usual publicity a good thing in the
way of busin SIS.
Probably hundreds of thousands of
people who scarcely realized that
there was such a place as Canada have
had impressed upon them the fact OF
the opportunities existing there and
the remarkable resources still unde-
veloped in its great northwest.
In view Of this, why should any
Canadian oppose reciprocity, S. X.

THE ISSUE IN MAINE.

NAT HILE the prohibition issue, to be voted on in Maine next
wv Monday, is not a partisan one, the Republican newspapers
of the State are one and all on the side of prohibition and
the Democratic papers generally are in favor of repeal. Repub-
lean leaders who are taking any part in the campaign are stumping
the State for prohibition, while the Democratic leaders are mostly
on the repeal side. Prohibition has been the bedrock of Maine
Republicanism for many years, and if the principle should now be
discarded by a majority of the voters Republican leaders feel that
their chances of carrying the State in next years elections would be
very greatly diminished and be an Endorsement of the Democratic
policy, and that it would give the Democracy an added prestige
after carrying the State for governor, Legislature, Congress and
senator in 1910.

FEAR OF THE PLAGUE.

\ a plague epidemic fear kills as well as the plague. In Italy
Ii since the beginning of the year more than 10000 people have
died from cholera, but many of these victims succumbed to
fear and terror. Among the ignorant peasantry fear took the form
of belief that the sanitary measures adopted by the government
were intended to spread the plague so as to get rid of the poor
class, and there have been outbreaks against the sanitary officers.
Fearless physicians and nurses in II plague stricken community are
usually immune from infection. They use necessary precautions,
but, absorbed i'll this work, they too often forget that they, too,
are mortal. \ calm courage and a desire to succor others are good
safeguards against a plague.

cAMpAIdN PUBLICITY NOW AssURED.

m FTER Il study of the campaign publicity act passed by Con
~ gress the Senate secretary concludes that all reports by
candidates for the Senate and the House of campaign fund
expenditures must be made public, because the filed statements are
part of the documents of the Office and therefore open to public
inspection. The campaign publicity act does not require that the
statements shall be made public, but manifestly it was the intention
of Congress that they shall be. So the public will hereafter know
how the campaigns for the nomination and election of senators and
representatives are financed and who contributes the cash.

WILL THE pRoGPEssIvEs ACCEPT TAFT?

@ ENATOR CUMMINS, of Iowa, in a signed statement presents
~ a bill of particulars against the denomination of President
Taft. He recites The official record of Mr.. Taft during his
administration and places him squarey in the position of a re
dictionary, whose supporters for his policies and for his denomination
are reactionaries. 1t was seen during the recent special session of
Congress that the .insurgent, or Progressive, Republicans were not
consistent and could not be relied upon i'll a pinch. They had
denounced Taft for signing the scandalous Payne. Aldrich tariff
bill and yet most of them hunked on the reciprocity bill, as well as
on the wool and cotton bills. These Progressiyes are now opening
their batteries on Taft to prevent his denomination. But in the
event of his being made the candidate, what stand will they then
take? After having depicted Taft as the apostle of reaction, and
declared him at enmity with the popular interests. will they fall in
line after the nomination, eat their words and take the stump to
help elect him?
