Some of Clark'S Epigrams.

Unless all signs fail, Champ Clark s
term as speaker of the House of Repre-
sentatives will bring forth the finest lot of
epigrams which have gone across the
speakers desk in many moon.
AS presiding officer of the House the
Missouran will be compelled to cross
swords with some mighty clever states
men. who will attempt to tie him into a
parliamentary knot. When Champ is
hard pressed in the heat of debate he is
almost certain to deliver himself of Ian
guage which, although always expressive
and to the point, is not considered ele-
giant.
Serene F. PAYNE, of New York, one of
the men who will be in bothersome
minority next year. never fails to drag an
epigram out of Clark.
During the consideration Of the tariff
commission bill Mr.. Payne poked fun at
Clark's inability to deliver solid Demo-
cratic vote.
"A little more O. that kind of CAB and
I'll beat your bill, ;" was the choice morsel
OF. parliamentary talk Clark flung across
the aisle
1t was Mr.. Payne also who was respon-
sible for a remark by Clark which may be
in common usage in Missouri, but which
was never heard before on the floor OF
the House. Mr.. Payne was engaged in
his usual occupation of haunting the DEM
ocrats.
Don't give me any more of that sacl;
jaw" shouted Clark Washington Post.

Mule is in His Heyday.

Do not waste any sympathy on the
poor mule. He is neither a has been nor
a candidate for that class He. like the
horse, is not suffering any setback as A
result of the advent Of the automobile.
The long cared animal seems only to
have come into the heydey of his popu-
larity, if we may judge from the price he
brings on the market. Evidently his
prosperity will not depend for artificial
support on the advertising he might de-
rive from Champ Clark's heralded prom
Use to drive span of Missouri mules up
PENNSYLVANIA avenue 1t rests upon
something more substantial
The mule is more in demand TODAY
than it has been at any time since the
Boer War. when the demand surpassed
all records. But in price he has far out
stripped the Boer War days Mules are
from 80 to 40 per cent. higher today than
they have been in ten years. and, accord
ing to the Kansas City Star, a mule OF
fourteen and one half hands that could be
bought OH the Kansas City market dur
ing the South African war for from $40 to
Sos today brings from SIS5 to S2Io.
Evidently the automobile, popular as it
has become for hauling purposes. and
the motor, popular as it. is for propelling
farm machinery heretofore driven or
pulled by mules, have failed to under
mine the mules stability. They NAV not
have increased it, but something has

Who Knows It All.

THE man who knows it alp is found
in every condition of life. In social inter
course he flourishes in whatever soil he
may chance to be planted, and once he
makes any Roadway the comfort of many
rational beings is seriously disturbed.
until he can be taken up by the roots and
flung aside. His is an exasperating ma
ture to deal with, and the seriousness
with which he insists upon being heard
and the absolute certainty of his demeanor
would be ridiculous but for the annoy
ance he causes to those forced to submit
to his outpourings. In the business
world he is even more IneXcuSable, and
rarely achieves the success which one
would infer from his boastful words is his.
The trouble is that it is impossible to
teach him anything; he knows ii alp
anyway, he asserts, SO why waste time
upon him when so many of his associates
need tuition badly2 He takes out in
imagination what many persons struggle
all their lives to acquire, and the conse-
quence is he soon becomes lack of all
trades and master of none" He believes
in himself, though, or at least he PROCESSES
to believe in himself, and there is no pro.
fession, no trade, no business enterprise
of whatever magnitude that he would
hesitate to undertake if the chance were
offered him. = Charleston Meas and

The End in SIGHT.

Colonel Goethals has definitely stated
before the House Committee on Com
merce that the Panama Canal will be
completed by September, 1913 The
probabilities are that the great work will
be practically completed some months be-
fore that time, for the Colonel has shown
himself TO be a conservative as well as
eminently efficient engineer. He further
stated that the cost will be $500, 900, 600,
including all appurtenances. HIS appear
ance before the committee was for Il c
purpose of urging the enactment of legi>-
lation fixing the shipping tolls which will
govern the passage of vessels through the
canal. He asserts that this is essential,
shipping interests of the world demand
at least is months advance notice of the
rates, which certainly seems reasonable
enough when one considers the amount
of readjustment of traffic that will inevi-
taby result from the opening Of the canal
incidentally, it is noticeable that less is
heard at present of the amount of excava-
ton accomplished and more about the
material TO be used in the locks and other
construction. For example, word comes
from Piusburg that shipments of steel
plates and fabricated material and cast
ings are now going out to the Panama
Canal on contracts at the rate OF 40, 600
tons d Manchester Union.

BOOSTING FREDERICK.

The great publicity given our water ex-
tensions, which has been widely spread,
and estimates relative TO the same pub
lished without authority from the Mavor
and aldermen. These publications are
misleading and in no manner calculated
to aid in boosting our city. We have
from time to time in these columns called
attention to the fact of too much talk by
parties connected with the executive de-
partment of our city. What benefit will
the Boosters banquet and the labors OF
our Board of Trade amount TO If this idle
gossip continues? The communication OF
Mr.. Clark, of Denver, to His Honor, the
Mayor, indicates what harm has been
done. Our water supply is ample for all
emergencies. The reservoir, which leaks,
can easily be repaired, and with the ex-
penditure OF S25,oo a pumping station
and water line connecting the Monocacy
with the reservoir, to be used as a re-
serve. erected. We deeply deplore the
many interviews given, and when con-
pared one conflicts with the other, there
appears to be no let up in this agitation
Of the water question. Do the work with
whatever plan that may be adopted and
stop this continuous idle gossip. 1t is
injurious to the city's future advance
ment.

to the striving Of growers after unnatural
tints such phrases have lost their old

Alfred Smith, F. R. II. s., Of Downley,
High Wycombe, who is well known
rose specialist, has been experimenting
for three or four years with view to the
production OF blue rose. By the pro-
cess of crossing different strains he has
now succeeded in obtaining the most dis
tnct blue rose yet produced and has
given it the name of Lady Coventry.
His nursery is near the estate of the
late Lord Beaconsfield at Hughenden.

by blending the common dog rose with
cultivated roses. a notable example of his
work being climbing rose. pure white.

President and Congress.

SO few are the remaining hours of this
Congress and such the accumulation of
unfinished business that an extra session
to consider the reciprocity agreement with
Canada is almost a certainty. The Phila-
delphia Record says editorially that it is
barely possible that the Senate in its
extreme repugnance to an extra session
will sweep all other legislation aside by
common consent and pass the agreement.
What Congress will do when in special
or general session is beyond the control
of the Executive. The sole object of
President Taft is to pass the reciprocity
bill, and with that his concern in the Ses-
sion will be at an end
Many suggestions are already made TO
the new Congress as to its course when
in session Among other things it is sug-
gested that Congress shall proceed at
once TO revise the most important sChed-
ules of the tariff in the interest of the
people. and that the session shall embody
such provisions of the Canadian agree
ment as are practicable. But comfy be-
tween the Congress and the Executive de-
mandS that the measure for which the
extra session is convened shall first be
taken into consideration. To mix it up
with general tariff legislation is to embar-
rass them both. Though closely related,
they should stand each on its own sepa-
rate ground.
So far as the House is concerned, the
new tariff bill of the extra session will
doubtless be a measure of revenue for the
needs of government and for the welfare
of the people, and to promote the Inter
estS" at public expense. To that Con-
,Nla 1,r,1 - 81, Il, r l.
November as nearly as public opinion
could be defined. But when this bill is
sent to the Senate it will encounter a Pro-
tectionist majority of different complex
ion from the majority of the House.
DEMONSTRATING down from such reaction
aries as Senators Hepburn and Penrose
to Senators Cummns and LaFolette, the
majority will still be Protectionist. In
this situation it should be apparent TO the
friends of reciprocity with Canada that it
should not be embarrassed by the long
conflict between the House and Senate
over the innumerable details of a tariff re-
vision. A bird in hand is worth two in
the bush.
1t would afford many of the enemies of
both tariff revision and the agreement
with Canada malicious Joy in Witnessing
the confusion OF the two measures on the
threshold of the extra session. But they
are not likely to experience such gratih-
cation The public welfare as well as re-
spect for the President will manifestlv de-
mand that the purpose of the extra session
shall be first accomplished. This is all
the more advisable in that adoption of the
agreement will be an important stride to-
ward general revision of the tariff in the
same direction.

In Search of Heirs.

Heirs of Mr.. John G. Maynard, who
died in Washington, D. c., recently,
where he had resided for the past fifteen
or twenty years, leaving quite little
estate in two of the banks of that city are

cannot be found the fund will escheat to

First Regiment Potomac Home Brigade,
Maryland Cavalry. The records suggest
that he enlisted March 30, 1864, and
served as volunteer until June IS, 1865,
when he was mustered out of the volun-
teer service. Subsequently Mr. Maynard
served in the regular army and when fin
ally mustered out of service, was en-

Harem Skirt in New York.

The appearance of striking looking
blonde who was wearing the newest
thing IN skirts, the much discussed
"harem;" on Park row, almost necessi-
tated the calling out OF the reserves to
clear the way
A newsboy first spotted the lady.
'Pipe the lady wild trousers on" he
shouted, and in few seconds the Young
woman was trying to outdistance a crowd
of men, women and boys who followed
her and expressed various opinions about
the latest wrinkle in skirts.
By the time the object of the curiosity
had reached Beekman street the crowd
had swelled to several hundred and the
young lady was half running.
Policemen came 10 her rescue and
scattered the crowd, giving her an oppor-
tunity to board car at the bridge.
The 'harem" skirt appeared to be
made of blue serge overskirt, which fell
Just below the knees, allowing a generous
portion of black baggy trousers to show
The skirt was slit up the sides and
braided.
