There was CONSERVATION when the

for him to postpone his trir to Europe.
That was more than two weeks ago,
for all that such strict silence has been
maintained about the matter until the
present time. In quiet way search
has been made all along the line of the
railroad and the express route. The
porters have been examined and cross.

trunk has been found.

burnt, should come to light it would
not create more interest than the dis
closure of the real inside of DR.. Hills

times known in high-brow circles as the
chancelleries of the world have been
scratching their heads for nearly six
months in an effort to guess at the real

And there it all is in that little
trunk, which is wandering about the
earth with tantalizing evasiveness. In
the meantime DR.. Hill has decided to
wait no longer. He is now on the high

of Paris. But he will scan the auction

opening the gates to the introduction

hope of giving relief from such restrict.

WEST VIRGINIA STRONG

To the Editor Of THE TIMES:

to awaken the progressive idea among
the voters Of this State.
There is a strong undercurrent against
the regulars in this State, and the peo-

Now, If every patriotic progressive in
the State will get busy and labor in
cessantly, and you will lend us a help

delegates at our primary and will send
a La Toilette delegation to the national
convention.

Lorimer Investigation
End Not Yet in Sight

The Lorimer investigation by a special
committee Of the Senate still drags, and
there appear indications Of purpose
on the part of the Lorimer hackers to
continue 1t still further. 1t is now be-
lieved the committee will not be ready
to make a report before February.
The committee resumed it's sessions
here today. In the twelve weeks of the
investigation 13O witnesses have been
heard. Most Of these were called bs
the attorneys for the committee. Ell

EXPENDITURE VERSUS EX.
TRAVAGANCE.

On their face, the estimates which
the District of Columbia Commissioners
have forwarded to Congress ask nearly
a million dollars more than Congress
gave them last year. 1t may be re-
garded as extravaganza on the strength
of that showing. Therefore statesmen
with misgivings would be fair if, be-
fore deciding against the Capital City,
they would investigate the purposes
for which money is asked.
Take the proposals for erection of a
municipal asphalt plant, a municipal
garbage disposal plant, and the begin
ming of the great work of harnessing
Great Falls to the city's street wiring
system. These things will cost money,
if they are ordered; but every one of
them represents sound business policy
and good management. Every one of
them ought to be adopted. Every one
would be if the District business were
run on the methods that would be ap-
piled if it were private business.
If Uncle Sam were the real landlord
and overload of this District; if he
owned and rented all the houses, stores,
and offices; if he had to maintain the
public services in order to get folks to
live in his town and do business there
in that case, is it conceivable that he
would fail to carry out such common.
sense improvements as the three men
toned!
Or that he would, while trying to
conduct model city, allow the schools
to get more and more beyond the
capacity of buildings to accommodate ?
1t is fair to warn Congressman and
Senators of the economical persuasion
that they will find no great difficulty
killing off the asphalt, Great Falls,
and garbage proposals simply because
there are powerful private contracting
interests in the town that look with
horror on those proposals. They would
interfere, if executed, with the hand.
some profits that private enterprises
now make out of garbage, street work,
and electric lighting. There will be in
sidious and most effective opposition.
These sensible proposals, such as al
most all cities adopt nowadays, will be
denounced as socialism, populism, an.
archy, and the crazy emanations of
diseased minds unfortunately placed in
high positions.
Yes, there will be plenty of easy
pretext for killing all the really pro-
gressive measures. But will it pay !
Will it pay to refuse a garbage plant
that In five years would pay for itself
and that would save from 100000 to
100000 a year regularly thereafter
1t scarcely seems so.
There is justification many times
in good business, for expenditure with
out the accusation of extravaganza. The
demands the Commissioners are this
year making illustrate one such oc.
casion,

"More Costly Than the
Male"

In the early days Of Eden. shortly after
Adam came,
And he found the town a dead one; the
amusements mighty tame,
He thought he'd get very busy-make a
hit with Mother Eve;
But the way she stung poor Adam has
made generations grieve;
For the First One of the Species had a
lemon up her sleeve!
When the fascinating Widow In an ul-
ira hobbIe skirt,
Meets the Sucker who imagines that
he's something of a Flirt;
And she turns the heavy battries of her
glorious orbs on him,
It's a cinch the gods have offered I'D
another lamb to trim;
For the Widow of the Species-you can
bet she's hep to him!
When the Hey Rube from Alfalfa hits
the trail on old Broadway,
With his pockets full of currency, his
spirits light and gay;
And he cops squab that cackles when
he throws some grains of corn;
He is minus many ducats but a wiser
gink next morn;
For the Species from the Old Town
isn't very recent born!
So ii goes down through the ages, Man
has ever been the goat
To the Female of the Species-hasn,t
had a chance remote.
He's been trimmed and conned and
played with. but he comes again
for more
Like the fall-guy at the shell game; vet
he never does get sore,
At the Female of the Species who with
him wipes up the floor! c. p.
