MENTAL SWINE.

There is a class Of human beings
who have the most perverted sense Of
humor that can be imagined. They rev-
el in the things that decent people
shun and abhor. They take the same
delight in the lewd and filthy story
that the scavenging bird or animal
does in an unsavory mess Of carrion.
But there is this difference-the bird
and animal are so constructed physi-
cally that they get the kind Of nourish-
ment they need out of the food no 9TH
CT will touch. whereas the man who
feeds his mind on filth only degrades
his mental and moral power by every
indulgence.
There is another difference. The
scavenging bird and animal will fght
to keep others Of its kind from sharing
in the mess of carrion II has discover

what. to his rotten mentality, seems a
choice bit OF filth, rushes off to pass
it on TO somebody else. II makes nc
difference 20 him whether the one nc
has chosen TO share IL with him Is OF
the same degraded class as himself
He will infiict the putrid stuff on tho
most decent, clean-minded person he
encounters, and will chuckle with de-
light as he passes II on.

STATE EMPLOYEES PAY.

It is the opinion Of Attorney Cen

people OF Michigan are Of the same
mind that the employees OF the house
and senate are not entitled TO draw
pay for Sundays and other days when
they do not work. The state now pays
legislative employees from three TO six
dollars a day including Sundays. for
their services. and the clerk Of the
house and the secretary OF the senate
each get ten dollars a day including
Sundays Now II the supreme court
upholds the attornew general, thou
sands OF dollars will be saved to the
state.
No wonder Michigan is bankrupt
half the timel There Is no earthly
reason why the employees should get
something for nothing, and we believe
the people many Of whom did not
know such a condition existed. will

OSBORN AND APPolNIEEs.

.
1t is reported from Lansing tina
Governor Osborn has plan TO shatte
the popular notion that the validity o
ex-Gov. Warmers recess appointment
has been placed beyond question by
reason of their confirmation by tn,
senate. The news is rife in capito
circles that he intends to make an ef-
fort to Gust the Warner appointees
basing his action on the following por-
ton of the statutes. heretofore over
looked, bearing upon recess appoint
ments:
"All officers appointed by the
governor during the recess of the
legislature shall continue to exc
cute the duties Of their respective
offices until the close of the next
session. unless others shall be am
pointed. jn aha shall have entered
upon the discharge Of their re-
spective duties"
The reading Of this statute is very
plain. No reference is made to the
confirmation of recess appointees by
the state senate and it specifically
states how long they shall continue
to hold office. 1t would seem that the
senate has nothing to do in determin-
ing the status of, recess appoint
ments. although it has always been the
custom for the chief executive to send
in the names of all recess appointments
for confirmation. The governor, it is
said, has submitted the matter TO
members of the bar and judiciary to
get consensus Of opinion from re-
sponsible sources. and it is believed he
will simply await until the end of the
present legislative session and appoint
successors to the fourteen Warner re-
cess appointees who are now holding
over
1t is known that the governor is
very anxious to rid the state of the
services Of Warner office holders, de-
claring he was elected on house
cleaning platform and that the people
expect him to carry out his promises
and appoint other men. This
is his point Of view, and it is not in
consistent with his campaign program.
He believes the senate members who
opposed his appointments betrayed the
people and says he cannot and will not
make peace with them until they have
made peace with the people who sent
them to Lansing. The case, then, rests
with the people and it will be interest
ing to note what their ultimate stand
will be.

A resolution has been passed by the
state senate asking Senator julius c
Burrows TO use his influence TO aid
the constitutional amendment as re-
CARDS the election Of senators by the
people. Michigan practically elects its
senators by popular vote although the
vote is only an advisory one. The leg
islature, however, has the power to ac-
cept or reject the nomination made
by the people and therein lies the dan
ger of the present system. A direct
election would be an Improvement mas
much as it would take the matter en-
tirely off the hands OF the legislature.
In view of the result OF the primary
contest in which he was defeated it
may go against Senator Burrows grain
to use his influence in aid of the con-
stitutional amendment for direct cleo
ton Of senators now before the sem
ate. nevertheless il is expected he will
support the proposition.
