Gompers made big mistake when
he accused Burns of planting" the
prosecution against the McNsmaras.
Burns present intention to go to
the bottom is causing Gompers
much concern, il view of the fact
that organized labor is ciamoring
54or a purging Of the unions of crimi-
NILS and punishment of those who
have bled the laboring men to com
NIT and cover up crimes that are a
menace TO the government itself.
The country is realizing more and
more every day the great service
VIM. j. Burns has performed to the
whole country in uncovering the
anarchists who, according to one Of
them, have dynamited 76 structures
in four years and destroyed many
lives. John d. Fredericks, he prose
cutting attorney at Los Angeles. has
also proven himself the man of the
hour and the movement started is
destined to uncover the whole con
spiracy and fill the federal and state
penitentiaries with criminals of high
and low degree. 1t is pity there
are not more Fredericks in public
Office to do their duty.

EXTENDING The SPAN OF LIFE
Exercise, Fresh Air and Good Plain
Foods Will DO Wonders With
Any Man.

While the death rate Of persons
under forty years of age has marked
ly decreased since 1880, the death
rate Of persons over forty years of
age has markedly increased.
Why? One reason, the New York
Evening Mail remarks, is that
science has done comparatively lit
tie against the noncommunicable dis
eases. Then medical science has
nursed along weak constitutions
which in earlier periods would have
succumbed in infancy or adolescence,
and has carried them across the
boundary of middle age. A third
reason, of course, is the increasing
complexitv of life, which brings
heavier burdens and stresses and
overwhelms some persons as soon as
the impetus of their youthful vitali-
ty is spent. A fourth reason is that
people do not replenish this vitality
and prepare for the problems of mid
die life.
There is really nothing cheaper
than the attainment and preserva-
ton of good health. Fresh air and
sleep are natures free gifts, and
bodily activity normal impulse of
the blood, while it costs less to eat
frugally than to overeat.

have been some better am sure al
though it had not begun to silk and

POSTAL DEFICIT THING OF THE PAST Hitchcock Announces That Result Was Not Due to
 Curtailing

Washington, April 23-"A deficit in the operation of the postoffice department Of ..7,6OoOO0, inherited by the present ad- ministration of the postal service practi- cally has been wiped out said Postmas- ter General Hitchcock today. He had just received from the auditor for the post office department final report showing that the revenues for the first six months of the current fiscal year aggre- eated sl1s,5 ,573,S17 ard the expenditures $11S,614,6S0.
 s'The wiping out in less than two years of the largest deficit in the history of the department" said MT. Hitchcock, was accomplished not by curtailing pos tai facilities, but by extending the serv- ice along profitable lines."
 He believes the current fiscal year Will show a considerable surplus. The audi tors report says that since the opening oe the administration 30S9 new postoffces have been established, delivery by letter carriers provided in 142 additional cities and 2124 new rural routes. aggregatinS 5. .2s0 miles in length, autnorfzed force of postal employees increased by SPA men, and annual expenditures for salaries in creased by s11 70S,07i in the two years.
