Washington. April I-President Tart sent
10 Congress to-day MS second message OF
tho present year on economy and efhclehcY
I'm th, government service. lie recommend
cd the massage Of legislation designed to
save more than SllNJ0eco a year. Probably
his two most striking proposals were that
tho local government officers IN tho Treas
urv. Postofice. Justice, Interior and COM
merce and Labor departments be put in tie
CLASSIFIED service, and that the revenue cut
ter service be consolidated with the light
house service IN the Department Of Com
morco and Labor.
Nv the FIRST change, the President said
Congress could effect saving Of at least
$1,000. ooo a year. In = previous message
early I'm the year he predicted economics
that would total about 100000 year.
in urging the placing Of local officers IN
the classified service, MI Taft points out
that the loss 10 the government caused by
two persons, in many cases, doing the work
that orc person could easily do is at least
100000 year Relative TO the postal ser
vice ne says.
II appears that a very substantial econ
omy would result from putting experienced
and trained officers in charge OF the hrst
and second class poStof1ces instead OF se-
the present practice. AS the annual oper-
sting expenses Of the first and second class
Offices aggregate the enormous sum ol
more than $40 vH0uJ, undoubtedly II the
uostmasters Of these Offices were embrace,
in the classified service, and required tc
devote all their time TO the public service
the annual savings would eventually repre-
sent many millions OF dollars. The saving
in salaries alone. not taking into accoun
any saving due 20 increased efficiency %
operation, would amount TO about N.VyO,WV
ti,,,n 10
masters Of the first and second class
amount TO s. 900. while the salaries o
assistant postmasters OF the same cIasse
srnnvnt 10 S2N2OCO II the position o
postmaster we're placed in the CLASSIFIED ser
Vice and those officers were given saiaIie
cGual to % per cent more than the SaIale
now given To the assistant postmaster ;
tho latter position being no LONGER required
there would he d saving In salaries TO tn
government Of S.6l2,@o. In the case
T,ostrnasfers M of7ccs OF the third class
large annual saving could be made.

BROOKLYN ADVERTISEMENTS.

Music is a sane pleasure

1t inspires to action and is
an antidote for idleness,

THE ROSARY"

In "The Rosary, which comes
to the Fay Opera house on Tues
day, February ID, Edward E.
Rose, the author of the play, has
taken an average set of people,
and shows you first their outside,
then deftly, subtly, with careful
strokes and firm hand, he takes
you within the brains and mind
of each character. You even see
the result Of their thinking. 1t
is like seeing first the results of
electricity-street cars running
telephone working-all wonderful
effects of this mighty force-and
then being taken to the central
power house from whence all this
energy flows.
And you see the effect of
thought upon the different indi.
yiduals. One character is that of
a modern business man, a stock
broker happily married to wife
who loves him; but his thought
is wrong. He harbors fear, doubt
and unbelief in the good that lies
all about him. He loses all
fortune, home, wife-even his own
self-respect.
How does It all end? All. that
is too long for me to tell you, but
this l may say, that he is brought
to a knowledge Of the supreme
law of life by priest, modern
priest, not of conventional stage
character, but real man, a big
man of faith, strength and con-
victioh, whose eyes see clearly
and whose spiritual power is the
moving force of the play.
This beautiful play has Just
completed three months run
in Chicago, and two month s run
in New York City.

In this connection we wish to

NORTHWEST EXPOSITION

Seven states have again combin-

mines, lakes, rivers, forests and

fairs have made the collections of
the finest products in the world

bought space from the Northwest
Development League for the seven
states where their official exhibits
will be installed.
The Northwest Products EXPO
sition will be almost twice as large
in extent as the "Land Show"
held in St. Paul and it is the hope
of the officers of the Northwest
Development League that it will
be a better exposition in every
way as they have almost ten full
months to prepare for it whereas
they had but little more than
three months to organize the St.
Paul show.
''The Products Exposition can
only be likened to a miniature
worlds fair,' said President Pen
well in speaking Of the outlook.

REPORTED SALE OF
ORE AT So PER TON

According to the News Tribune
it is reported in Duluth that the
Commodore has made sale of ore
for the coming season at So per
ton, a reduction of so cents per
ton as compared with the prevail
ing prices in 1911.
This is non-Bessemer ore, and it
is said the price is being met by
the Breitung interests on the Mar.
quette range.
The quotation is not yet con.
firmed, but it would look as
though the consumer was bound
to reap the result Of the decrease
in ore rates on the range roads
and then some.
