Gus SeaweIl for Prosecuting Attorney,
Fellow Democrats.


Fellow Democrats;
had almost concluded to retire
to private life at the close Of my
present term OF Office and devote
myself exclusively to my genera
practice as an attorney, but by reas
on of the earnest solicitation o.
friends over the entire district, ]
have decided to yield to their desires
aud to solicit your support for q
second term as Prosecuting Attor'
ney of this Circuit
In again seeking the honor | wish
to re.aihrm my constant and con-
sistent support of Democratic princi-
pies and Democratic nominees at all
times and upon all occasions To
some this may seem of little import
at this time, but would it not be an
embarrassing and indeiensible atti-
tude if, opposed in the general cleo
ton your nominee should be con-
lronted with the fact of having
bolted your ticket, and of having
repudiated the principles OF your
party? Such a charge can never be
proven against me and | cheeriully
invite rigid inquiry and inyesti-
cation on this issue .., /
In making this announcement, !
am aware of the imperiections OF
human nature and that |, beng hu-
man, possess in comnoo with all
mankind, my sh re of them, and !
am also aware that some of these
human imperIections will incite adj
verse criticism and no doubt, from
many who have not themselves
reached that stage Of perfection and
freedom thereirom so much desired
but seldom attained by mortal
man; shall not, therefore, hypo.
critically and untruthfully claim
freedom from all human faults nor
from all human errors, neither do !
wish to be considered as condemn
ing Others who possess those faults
or are guilty Of those errors from
which claim exemption when | as
sert some virtue in myself as seems
to be the political habit, in never
having contracted or become addict
ed to the drug habit in any shape,
form nor fashion, and further affirm
that whatever faults | may possess,
and of whatever errors ! may have
been guilty are even more sorrowlul
to me than they could possibly be TO
my friends or critics, and shall ever
be the subject Of my watchIul care,
and, so far as in me lies, shall be
suppressed and overcome,
In my official capacity have tried
to serve you to the best Of my abil'
ity and the experience have gained
during mypresent term will enable
me to give YOU better public service
in the future should you decide to
honor me with q second term,
For my future official conduct, !
shall promise a faithful discharge OF
the duties of the office in that man
ner which past experience has
taught me is promotiyc of law and
order and suppression Of vice, i'm
morality and other crime punishable
by law,
| have ever believed that Justice
and mercy should attend and direct
the enforcement of every stem Ont
unyielding mandate of the law
as thereby its uniyersalty would
never work harm nor injury wber,

WHAT HAPPENED WHEN GO.
LOSKI ROCKED THE BOAT.

Goloski rocked the boat. And yet,
in the ordinary course of nature, it is
not probable that Goloski will ever
again rock the boat. As he smooths
the fax-seed poultice and dries his
clothes, he finds his sense of humor
oozing away like Bob Acres courage.
In the morning he had gone forth with
one Mcguire and couple of clinging
young persons who possessed a delight
full alto scream. They pushed off into
the tawny Passaic and boated about
considerably. Overmasted in mid
stream by that fatal gift of humor, and
desire to enjoy the treble note of a
woman in deep fear, Goloski proceeded
to rock the boat. The screams were so
piercing, SO poignant that Goloski could
scarcely restrain his mirth. Mcguire,
being a dull, phlegmatic man, simply
turned the prov and bent to the oars
without SO much as cracking a smile.
His face was set as if he were think
ing hard.
He alighted hastily at the Pine Brook
landing, assisted the ladies ashore, and,
as Goloski stepped out, the man with
the Irish name and temper to match,
planted a blow on the Goloski coun-
tenance which gave him the illusion
that he was listening to the rush of
many waters-that perhaps the whole
shoreline had caved in. 1t was some
moments before he could fully compre-
hend that it was merely Maguire's way
of protesting against the mistaken
sense of humor which delights in rock
ing the boat. Smarting under the in
dignity, Goloski took the matter into
court, where the presiding judge, also
deficient in sense of humor, intimated
that if the defendant would say the
word he would send the jocose plaintiff
to Jail, where he could rock the cold
pavement of his cell to his hearts
content.
Goloski went forth into the marts a
bit soured, but it is hoped that his ex-
perience gets all the publicity it de-
serves. The unwholesome practice of
rocking the boat has needed some such
example to counteract it. A saving
sense of humor is one of the real con-
diments in the feast of life, but it
should be used. in moderation. In the
form of practical jokes which place life
and limb in jeopardy, it loses its SAVIOR.
The house of mourning is very slow
in seeing the point of these delicate
plays of humor, which have all the
essentials of tragedy, and it is hoped
that henceforth there might be a
Mcguire for every Goloski who rocks
the boat.

THE BANKS AND THE POSTAL
SAVINGS EXPERIMENT.

Postmaster General Hitchcock re-
ports that a great number of applica-
tions have already been received from
depositors in the postal savings banks,
for the privilege of exchanging their
deposits for the 21a per cent bonds of
the Government. This privilege will
be open to the depositors on July l,
and is expected thereafter greatly to
accentuate the interest of depositors in
the postal concerns.
1t is apparent that if this plan of
issuing Government bonds to these
depositors is carried ultimately to a
logical end; and if the postal bank
system is finally extended to the
whole country-then there will be an
end for all time of the necessity of
the Government floating loans or sell
ing securities in the old way. The
postal banks will at all times finance
whatever necessities may be presented
to the Government.
The national banking's circulation
system is based on the use, in con.
siderable part, of Government securi-
ties as a basis for bank circulation
If the postal banks require all the Gov
ernment bonds, there will be a COM
petition with the demands of the ma
tional banks, which should make it pos
sible to f'take care of the 2 per cent
bonds that used to worry Senator
Aldrich so much. These 2 per cent
bonds were widely regarded as the
largest concern of the Rhode Islander
in framing his central bank of issue
plan. He was anxious that the banks
should not lose any of the money they
had invested in these bonds; and they
would be pretty certain to lose some
thing, if the privilege of using them as
security for circulation were removed.
The experiment Of the few postal

A vINDICATlON FOR THE DIS
TRICT GovEkNMENT.

The revelations which are being
made as to the cost of condemnation
proceedings in Washington contain an
incidental vindication for the admins
tration of the District through its
Commissioners. 1t appears that there
are two procedures for condemning
property for public purposes. In one
case, the District government does the
work through its own lawyers, who are
paid modest salaries and give their
time to the service. In the other, as
when land is bought for parks, the con-
demnation proceedings are in charge of
the Department of Justice, and special
attorneys are engaged to manage the
procedure.
1t is perfectly natural that Congress
should have got into the habit of turn
ing such things over to the department.
The impression prevails on Capitol Hill
that the District government is mar
velously extravagant; the Department
of Justice has lots of lawyers; might
just as we'll take on a condemnation
case now and then, as not. Presum-
ably, in the Congressional mind, it will
save money to have the regular organi-
zation Of the department grind out
the condemnations as a by-product.
But the facts are exactly to the
contrary. The department goes out
and engages special counsel for these
cases, hires commissioners, and grants
fees so big that their publication has
caused astonishment.
On the other hand, the District gov
erhment has it's own regularly organ
lied force fer handling all condemna-
tion cases. Three lawyers are en-
ployed, at 1900, $500, and $4,000
each per annum. Each handles his own
department of the business; and ex-
perience proves that they do the work
at an expense so small that the allow
ances for like work done under the
direction of the Department of Justice
suggest the financial operations of a
billionaire afraid to die rich and conf
dent that his end is imminent.
The point is that Congress has been
mistaken about the extravaganza of
the District government, and sadly in
error about the economies of the De-
partment of Justice organization. In
future there ought to be important
economies, in these regards, as result
of the airing which the whole subject
is now getting.

savings banks thus far established has
been, on the whole, as satisfactory as
could be expected. Of course, the great
cities, with their miscellany of popu-
lation largely foreign, need postal
banks more than the small towns that
thus far have got most of them. The
experiment has by no means shown
what the system can do if generally
inaugurated. The mere fact that only
very few people are familiarized with
the system makes its best development
impossible everywhere deposits are
received. The experiment has earned
the right to a much wider trial, and
ought to get it soon.

FOR ATTORNEY GAUSS

To the Editor Of THE TINES:

Us much food Cor reflection, regret
that Mr.. Weiliver, in his anxiety to

and information having nothing what
ever to do with the subject OF his ar

Mr.. Gauss is not special trust bus
ter, receiving an extravagant fee as a
political plum, but is a specially ap-
pointed Government clerk working on a
fair salary for services well performed.
The Attorney General, from the rec
ords of his office and from other reliable
information presented, was satisfied that
there was reason to believe that much
real property in the District CT Column
bia now occupied under title of adverse
possession by "sauatters," as matter
Of right belonged to the United States
Government, and the office held by Mr.
Gauss was created TO thoroughly inves-
tigate such disputed titles, with View

Much progress has been made, and
much valuable information obtained,

STRIFE REVIVED IN
D. A. R., BOARD AND
PRESIDENT At ODDS
Mrs, SCOTS Committee Dis
solved by Champions of
Mrs. A. S. B. Bryan.

Through the action Of the national
board Of management of the Daughters
of the American Revolution in arbi-
trarily discharginR the supervision conn.,
mittee of ten. which the president gen.
eral. Mrs. Matthew T. Scott, had ap-
pointed only q short time before, inter

sational developments are expected in
the organization.
Forces, as they are aligned today
show that Mrs. Agnes S. B. Bryan,
head clerk in the treasurer generals
office. has the national board Of man.
agement championing her cause and op-
posing the highest official in the or,
ganization, Mrs. Scott.
Mrs. Bryan was reprimanded by the
supervision committee, which Mrs
Scott recently appointed with congrat-
ulatory words. and soon after the rep
rimand was administered. the national
board took it uron itself to dissolve
Mrs Scotts committee that had author
ICED the rebuke.
"Undue Activity" Charged.
The rebuke was given Mrs. Bryan
for undue activity and meddling in
the affairs of the society that did not
concern her"
"Our officers are not expected to play
politics. and I did not" she said this
morning. Any of the members Of the
board will tell you that"
The members of the national board OF
management are waiting to see what
action Mrs. Scott will take because
they discharged her committee. There
is speculation as to whether she will
seek to reinstate the rebuke-giving par.
ties.
Talks of Disloyalty.
Many of the members of the super
vision committee. which has for its
work the supervision of Colonial Hall,
the headquarters of the Daughters of
the American Revolution. are out of
the city.
Mrs. E. Richard Gasch. one of the
members of the dismissed committee,
which had for it's chairman Mrs. W. c.
