Capital T ale $.
Hard to Keep in Line.

Vice President Sherman's fondness for
mixing with the crowd, talking politics
with his old cronies in the House, and
general dislike for formality, espe-
cIalIy when the formality is a prolonged
affair, almost disarranged the White
House plans for the New Year recep-
ton.
Mr.. Sherman was the first man re-
ceived by the President. The Vice Presi-
dent then became a member of the
Presidents receiving party. The Presid-
ing Officer of the Senate continued to
bow sweetly as long as possible. and
then quietly stepped into the line of
guests which had already passed the
President and walked out to the East
Room, where there were hundreds of
politicians of various brands. The Vice
President was having fine time when.
he was interrupted by Capt. Archibald
Butt, the Presidents military aide.
''Mr. Vice President" said Captain
Butt, you have been missed from the
receiving line. Permit me to escort you
back in time to receive the diplomats"
80 long, boys" said the Vice Presi-
dent, waving his hand to his old cronies
in the House. See you later"
Diplomat after diplomat passed the
President, and behind them the Vice
President saw an endless line of gold
braid adorning the breasts of countless
officers of the army and navy stationed
in Washington.
Those fellows don't want to see me
for anything" said the Vice President,
as he slipped back into the East Room,
and from there he went out into the
main corridor, where he mixed with the
crowd.
Half an hour later, while the Vice
President was exchanging the compli
ments of the season and telling and
hearing stories, he was again accosted
by Captain Butt.
i've been looking all over the White
House for you," said the military aide.

Indian Fighter Here.

A picturesque character about the
Capitol these days is Col. Henry Heg-
wer, of Denver, Colo, national COM
mander of the National Indian War
Veterans. This organization is COM
posed of the soldiers who served on the
frontier fighting Indians from 1856 to
1888. Many of these men before serving
on the frontier had fought through the
civil war. Now they are asking for
a pension measure, and Colonel Hegwer
is here to help get the bill they want
passed.
Colonel Hegwer is crippled from his
service. but is hale and vigorous. He
served in the Eighteenth Kansas regi-
ment, which was mustered into the
service of the United States and saw
hard work in the days when the Kan
cas- Pacific was being constructed across
the plains Before he fought the In
dians he was in the civil war.
The service on the frontier fighting
savages was incomparably harder and
more trying. according to Colonel Heg-
wcr. than the civil war service.
'"To be taken prisoner" said he,
meant the soldier would be tortured in
every conceivable manner, burned at
the stake, and even scalped while alive.

whom, as private citizen, The Wash
ington Times, together with the rank
and file of the membership of the
Chamber, entertains the highest re-
gard.
1t is necessary, in considering Mr..
Callahan's candidacy, however, to go
behind the fact that he is an estimable
gentleman of integrity, and OF charm
ing personality. 1t is necessary to
consider his candidacy in connection
with the business interests with which
he is affiliated, and which are fore
most in seeking to bring about his
election.
To question the wisdom of electing
to the first vice presidency of the
Chamber of Commerce any man closely
allied with public service interests is
bound to produce a certain amount OF
discord. The supporters of that man
are bound Ito feel resentment. Har-
mony is bound to suffer temporarily.
It does not follow that the wisdom
of electing such a man should not be
questioned. On the contrary, It but
emphasizes the necessity of raising the
question sharply, meeting it fairly,
and disposing of it speedily for all
time.
1t is more important that this ques-
ton be settled, through intelligent and
independent expression of the members
of the Chamber on election day, than
that it be suppressed for the purpose
of promoting surface harmony.

ELK|NS' SON URGED
FOR APPOINTMENT
Governors Action Would Be
Regarded AS Tribute
to Both.

CHARLESTON, w. Va, Jan. 6.-Un-
less discouraged by developments,
friends of Davis Elkins will urge Gov
ernor Glasscock to name him as United
States Senator for the unexpired term
Of Stephen B. Elkins, who died Thurs
day night in Washington.
Davis Elkins is the eldest son of the
late Senator. Word has reached here
that Governor Glasscock will make no
appointment as the Legislature meets
in Charleston next Tuesday, and the
election of Senator'S will follow.
Davis Elkins is Republican, as his
father was. The Legislature is Demo-
cratic, hence his term of office would
only be for a few days, even If he were
named. His friends claim 1t would be
a nice compliment for the friends of the
late United States Senator to pay his
son, as the Republicans would undoubt-
edly make him the caucus nominee of
their party, and he would receive the
Republican vote on Joint ballot. If any
thing can shake Governor Glasscocks s
resolution not to appoint a successor
the suggestion of Davis EIkins' name
Is believed to be the leverage, as the
governor and the late Senator were very
close friends.

Bull and Tiger.

. "Burlcson, are you going to succeed
Tawney as chairman of the House Com
mfttee on Appropriations"
This is the question which the Texan
is asked dozen times day, and in re-
sponse he tells a story.
Two sporting men in Spain," said
RurIeson, were discussing the relative
fighting qualities of a bull and a Bengal
tiger. One of the sports maintained
that the tiger was the fiercest animal
in the world, and would put the bull
to death before that animal had an op-
portunity to find his bearings. The
other sport made a similar claim for
the bull. A wager was made and the
finest Bengal tiger to be obtained was
turned loose in che of the Spanish bull
rings From the herd of bulls the finest
specimen was selected, and as he was
turned into the ring to meet the tiger
half a dozen barbs were stuck into his
sides.
MY gracious, you should have seen
that fight. That Bengal tiger came
rushing at his antagonist as though
he meant to kill him at one bite. Mr..
Bull, however. knew the game and In
no time he had the tiger beaten to a
fIazzle. as a famous statesman would
say. .n
Now, strange as It may seem, that
story has an application TO this fight
for the craftsmanship of the House
Committee on Appropriations. FitZ-
gerald is a candidate and so am All
have got to say is that when the boys
turn loose their Texas steer against
that Tammany tiger Charley Murphy
better prepare messages of sympathy"

LONGWORTH'S BILL
SUPPORTED BY COBB
President of National Tariff
Commission Association
Gives Approval.

Support of the Longworth Tarin COM
mission bill by the National Taan Com
mission Association was today assured
by John Gambler Cobb, president Of the
organization, who made a hurried trip
here to confer with Longworth as 10
ways and means.
"I cordially indorse the Longworth
measure" Cobb said. There are only
a few minor points not entirely in ac-
cord with our views-such as the term
of the commissioners, but in general the
measure is splendid. The provisions III
regard to subpoena of witnesses ana
calling for books and papers, whlch
is based on a similar provision in the
Lenroot bill, seems to be very good
solution of a much discussed question.
1t has our hearty support"

HOW ASSOCIATED CHARITIES
SPENDS OUR MONEY.

Everybody knows that we have been
getting smarter and smarter every
wear. For instance, a hundred years
ago everybody used tallow dips; fifty
years ago everybody used lamps; to
day practically everybody uses cleo
tricity or gas.
That is because somebody was smart
enough to improve on the tallow dip
with lamp, and because somebody
else was smart enough to improve on
the lamp with gas and electricity.
Fifty years ago our idea of charity
was good deal like our ideas oi
illumination. We were in the Kerosene
lamp period. If a man, woman,
child, or family was in distress we
thought the thing to do was to give
them money. food, fuel. or clothing.
Today the theory of charity is vastly
different. 1t is recognized by those
who have given the subject the greatest
thought, and whose experience has been
the broadest, that an outright gift OF
money, food, fuel, or clothing to per.
son in distress is, as a rule, anything
but an act of kindness.
It has been discovered that the
noblest charity-the charity that car
ries the greatest and most lasting
benefits the charity which gives OPP
portunity. and not aims, to the per
son in distress. If it is possible for
such an institution as the Associated
Charities to help an unfortunate man
or woman into 4 position of independ-
ence and selfsupport, manifestly that
institution is performing a better serV-
ice for the unfortunate man or woman
and fop the community than if it
doled out money and food for tenn
porarv relief, taking no account of the
future welfare of the recipients.
Every intelligent person must recog-
nize that such work as this is the
kind of work we want done in Wash
ington, with this emphatic proviso:
We want to know that when person
needs immediate relief in the shape OF
food, clothing, coal, house rent, or
medical attention, he will get it.
Fortunately, we do know this. 1t is
fact. 1t is exactly. the basis upon
which the Associated Charities
operates. If the case is desperate, ii
the emergency is pressing, the person
in need gets instant relief. If it is pos
sible to help the unfortunate person to
help himself, he is given help;-he is
put in position to provide for him
self by his own energies.
To accomplish these two ends, as
occasion demands, the Associated
Charities funds are divided into two
separate accounts. The funds of one
are used in helping people to help
themselves, The funds of the other
are used for direct relief.
The Associated Charities has begun
its annual campaign for funds for the
ensuing year. 1t needs $4,000. Any
person can contribute to either fund.
The case is in the hands of the people
of Washington.

HARMONY is NEARLY AL
WAYS EXPENSIVE.

Harmony obtained at the expense of
principle is nearly always expensive.
It's aftermath is quite likely to be
more disastrous than a little temporary
discord.
The member of the Chamber of
Commerce in Washington, who has
been hearing a good deal about har-
mony since the public service corpora
ton issue was raised in the campaign
for first vice president of the Cham
Der, need not be frightened. Harmony
in the Chamber is desirable, but not
at the expense of the principle of the
Chambers absolute independence.
The individual members of the
Chamber of Commerce can better af-
ford to look the public service cor
poration question squarely in the face,
and meet the issue boldly, than evade
it for the sake of avoiding momentary
friction.
The members of the Chamber of
Commerce are asked to elect to the first
vice presidency an official of the Nor
folk and Washington Steamboat Com
pany, which is closely related, through
Joint officials and joint stock owner
ship, to the Washington Railway and
Electric Company. This official hap
pens to be D. j. Callahan, q man for

A CHANCE TO ENCOURAGE
REAL HARMONY.

HreSlQenC laIC laSC summer mdue All
nouncement that the policy of punish
ing insurgent Republicans by taking
their share of patronage away from
them was no longer to be pursued.
Insurgents were to be accepted as Re
publicans in good standing, and their
recommendation for appointments
were to be sought and considered just
as the recommendations of regular
Republicans.
1t was an evidence of the President s
purpose to encourage harmony among
all elements in his party. Perhaps the
fact that withdrawing their pap
seemed to strengthen instead OF
weaken them may have moved the
Executive to restore the suckings to
the independents. Anyhow, he did an
nounce that all kinds of Republicans
were thenceforward to be treated
alike.
An excellent opportunity now pre-
sents itself to Mr.. Taft to emphasize
his purpose of forgiving and forgetting
past differences. He is called upon to
name a circuit Judge for the great
Eighth circuit. The new appointee
must fill the place vacated by Justice
Van Devanter, promoted to the Su-
preme Court.
Friends of Congressman George w
Norris of Nebraska have urged hi>
name upon the President Mr.. Norris
has been the most effective, efficient
result getting of all the House in
surgents. He has fought hard and fair
He has just been reelected by the
biggest majority his district ever gave
He did more to get substance of results
out of the House rules fight than any
other half dozen men put together
There would have been no reform, un,
der Republican Administration, and
probably none under Democratic, but
for George Norris work and leader,
ship.
The country approves what Norris
made possible. The Republican Ad
ministration can we'll afford to ap
prove it. Nothing would go so far tC
convince the whole nation of President
Taft's sincerity in forgiving the in,
surgents as to name Mr.. Norris to this
circuit bench vacancy.
Mr.. Norris has served eight years as
district Judge in Nebraska, making g
record of efficiency, ability, and right
mindedness which the President would
find, on investigation, to be the highest
possible testimonial of fitness for the
circuit judgeship. He is a lawyer o.
fine attainments, an experienced judge
and one of the men who command tn,
confidence and admiration of the Who'll,
country for substantial services per
formed. He would honor the position
and he would be splendid credit to th'
generosity and the political tact of thu
President.
