THE SOUTHERN DELEGATES.

By far the worst and most uncer-
tain influence in the republican ma
tional convention is that of the south
ern delegates. Most of the southern
delegates are office holders or else
represent such officials. Some are
white, some colored. They are all
mercenary and go to the highest bid
der. That is they are for the man
who can do the most for them. Many
southern votes can be bought out
right and there can be little doubt
that at times like the present the
cold cash is very eloquent with Mr..
Southern Delegate.
In the current number of Golfers
the subject of southern delegates is
discussed and that publication gives
President Taft credit for his efforts
10 bring about a reform. The Collier
editorial in part follows:
zone remedy for the Southern
Delegates evil is to put the federal
officeholders in to the classified civil
service list, instead of making them
appointees of the president, as now.
The white republican henchmen in
the southern states, who send up
instructed delegations, and go up
themselves as delegates to the nation
al convention, are often postmasters,
collectors of revenue, or customs col
lectors. They owe their place to the
president, so they have to work for
his denomination. In three separate
messages Mr.. Taft has recommended
that these local federal offices be
embraced in a classified merit system.
This means placing in the classified
service all the local officers under
the department Of the treasury, the
interior, post office, and commerce
and. labor That is an extension Of
the classified service to all the higher
officers except those who have to do
Taft has said: The president and
members of congress devote to mat
ters of patronage time which they
should devote to questions of policy
and administration He asked that
his critics Join with me in legislation
which will enable me to put every
local officer, be he postmaster, in
ternal revenue collector, customs col
lector, under classified civil service
Tt would said he, take away the
power to use the patronage of the
government for political purposes
BY their certainty of tenure, depend
ent on good service, and by their free
dom from the necessity for political
activity, these local officers would be
induced to become more efficient
public servants Not only do these
appointive officials use the public
money to pursue their own political
career, but they keep the classified
employees under them in a state of
political eruptiveness and restless
ness. Mr.. Taft calls the present sys-
tenn of southern delegates and federal
officeholding "a factional chase for
federal Offices He says: There is
a little coterie of politicians who de-
vote themselves solely to the selection
OF delegates to the national conven-

THIS LITTLE OLD WORLD.

This little old planet is rolling along
To the Tilt of laugh and rollicking
song,
And ever wecoming smile,
And better and better tits growing
each day,
And love bending over to brighten
the way,
And tighten each wearying smile.
This little old earth is haven of rest,
With blossoms strewn over it's mother
ly breast,
And sending their fragrance
around:
There's ever a word of the kindliest
cheer
To gladden. our hearts when the jour
ney grows drear,
While pleasure ard plenty abound.
This little old world is refuge OF
love,
With rapturous skies bending DER us
above,
And little ones clasping our hand;
While eyes, all alight, smile the JOY
that they know
Back into our own, with a heart all
aglow,
And yearning we we'll understand
This little old world is a beautiful
sphere,
While Love leads the way and is how
ering near,
To guide us along on our way.
1t radiates joy, If our hearts are alight
With all that is happy and cheerful
and bright,
Wherever we're led day by day.

The best and surest remedy for the
