ELECTING POSTA1ASTERS.

In Kansas congressman has
agreed to recommend for appoint
ment as postmasters in two towns
the persons who may be elected by an
informal public vote of the inhabi-
tants.
There is good deal of sense as
well as true democracy in a referen-
dunn of this kind. SO far as the peo-
pie of most small towns are concern
ed, the United States government
touches them closely only at the post
office. They pay their tariff and
revenue taxes at the local stores, but
the impost is cancelled in the price
Of the goods that they buy. The
money that they use is issued or
guaranteed at Washington, but, ex-
cept in case of trouble, that does not
appeal very strongly to the magma
ton. They see peripatetic Presi-
dent occasionally, but, like their own
politicians, he is appealing for votes.
If the people in all cases elected
their postmasters there would be an
improvement in the character of
these officials; they would have a
greater responsibility and good
many contemplate scandals would
be avoided. Republic.

ADMIRAL SCHLEY AND THE
FLAG

'The death of Admiral Schley,
said Lincoln man, recalls an in
cident which occurred shortly after
the Spanish-American war. The ad-
miral came west to spend a few
weeks and stopped off at Omaha.
While in the metropolis he was the
guest of the late General Henderson,
and it was my pleasure to not only
meet him, but also dine with him,
and it was at the home Of the general
that the incident above referred to
happened.
1.-The announcement that the hero
of Santiago was to spend his time in
Omaha at General Manderson's
aroused some interest and on the
first night of his visit he was greeted
by throng of curious but otherwise
enthusiastic patriotic citizens. All
wanted to see the officer, and the
general opened his home to the peo-
pie of Omaha. l was there as per-
sonal guest of the host, and while my
acquaintance with the admiral was
only of short duration, l was much
impressed with him. He was most
democratic, and his one desire SEEM
ed to be to meet all of those who
gathered to do him honor. With
him it was not only a handshake and
a hurried greeting, for he always
took time to talk to his new &C.
quaintances. When questioned about
the battle in which he played the
title roll, he would smilingly answer
that it was not he who should be
congratulated, but the men behind
the guns. To them, he said, belong
ed the victory.
s'During the evening a young fell
low rushed up to Admiral Schley.
and, holding a silk American flag in
his hand, asked him to write his sig
nature upon it. Young man, hope
that there never will come time
when there shall appear on this flag
anything but the stars and stripes.
I will readily give you my card, but
l could never think of destroying the
worth of this beautiful flag with my
name Whereupon he handed the
boy his card, amid an outburst of
cheers from those in the room. -

TELL Us, MIR. TAFT?

For two years and seven months,
Mr.. Taft, you have welded the
enormous power of the presidency.
1t has been time of intellectual and
social ferment when the people every
where have been crying out for bet
ter conditions of life.
You are now touring the country
giving an account of .your steward
ship and asking endorsement in the
shape of reelection.
Tell us, Mr.. President, what you
have done to make life happier and
better for the millions who do the
nations work and drudgery-the
millions whose average income is
less than $500 a year?
What have you done to reduce
their cost Of living?
What have you done to increase
their earning capacity?
What have you done to make it
easier for them to get homes of their
own?
What have you done to increase
their power of self-defense against
the predatory interests that control
money and property and thereby ex-
plot the producer on one hand and
the consumer on the other?
Can you name ONE THING you
average man, woman or child in
America?
If you can, we shall welcome it
gladly, with sincere thanks and con-
ulations.-Sioux City News.

Times Changes.

In childhood, when my works were
aching, my granny doctored me; she
held my nose and kept me taking
boneset and ginger tea. Then soon
departed all the collie, the anguish
and the pain, and l went forth to
sport and frolic, till I got sick again.
And thuswise all the kids were treat
ed by grannies in their day; they
swallowed yarb tea superheated, and
sickness skipped away. But now the
world is so enlightened, We jeer at
granny's dope; at old time remedies
we're frightened-the surgeon is our
hope. The surgeon comes with saw
and cleaver, he comes in summer
garb; he gives no tea to cure our
fever; he scorns the ancient yarb.
He tells us that some cog or rachel
has slipped in our insides; he cuts US
open with a Ratchet, and all our
works divides. He hews US with his
CORY axes, till, with expiring sigh,
we sadly ask him what his tax is, and
then curl up and die.-Walt Mason.

A SIGNIFICANT STRAW.

Southern republicanism is a Pc
culiar institution. 1t is not rooted
in the soil. It's rootlets run through
conduits to Washington, D. c., from
which it draws it's nourishment For
local opinion it cares not a copper,
but it is acutely sensitive to condi-
tions which threaten to disturb the
free and easy flow of Federal patron
age in the accustomed channels.
This fact gives peculiar signifi-
canoe to the Texas republican revolt
against President Taft. It's leader
says that Mr. Taft's nomination
"means defeat at the polls" He does
not mean defeat in Texas. That is a
part of the course of nature, and
Texan republicans are prepared to
bear it with fortitude. He means
defeat in the nation at large, a con-
summation which would result in leav-
ing the faithful in a jobless and I'M
done condition..
This is significant straw in the
wind of public opinion. d

FRIENDS AND FOES.

We shall not make much progress
with the antitrust law until we dis
tinguish closely between it's friends
and it's enemies.
The best friends the criminal
trusts have had have been those who
have maintained that the law could
not be enforced without destroying
all business.
Roosevelt when he was president. He
dinned that idea into the. ears of the
people until many of them came to
believe it, A few federal judges, just
ly suspected of a strong bias toward
monopoly, made rulings that led in
the same direction. The supreme
court of the United States in the
Knight case was caught mapping al
so.
If the criminal trusts can make it
appear that law aimed only at them
applies to business and industry of
every description they need little else
in the way of defense. Government
cannot kill all business and industry.
This is why the recent decisions
by the supreme court in the cases of
Oil and Tobacco gave the criminal
trusts SO much concern. These
judgments applied to the antitrust
law exactly as reason is applied and
always has been applied to every
other law. Where reason rules JUS
tice prevails. The contention that
the law was intended to cover and in
fact by it's terms did apply to ordin-
airy business affairs was the height
of unreason.
1t is not true that anything has
been read into the law that was not
there before. 1t is true that the SUI
preme court has devised it's inter-
probation of the false and tricky idea
that was devised to protect guilt at
the expense Of innocence.
No more valuable service was ever
rendered to the trusts than that which
for nearly eight years they received
from the vociferous Roosevelt. In
stead of enforcing the law courage
ously and intellisently he almost daily
proclaimed the false theory that it
could not be enforced. Instead of
singing out offenders and pursuing
them according to law, he made all
business nervous and apprehensive
by asserting that it was in iminent
danger
Laws that stick must be written in
drastic form. 1t is the duty of execu-
tive officers to apply them to Offend
ers. If the courts are honest they
will not be injuriously applied to
those who are not Offenders.-St.
Louis Republic.
