New York, Dec. 27.-For six

Sans committee that is investi-
eating the money trust.
Now sergeant-at-arms of the

TWO AND A HALF CENTS A
BRIBE-NOT IN CHI!
Columbus, Ohio, Dec. 27.-The
state supreme court will have to
decide, whether the fact that two
and half cents is paid for each
signature to petitions under the
new initiative and referendum act
constitutes bribery, and so IN
validates the petitions.
A local attorney questions the
legality of five petitions just filed
on the ground that two and a half
cents was paid for signatures. He
charges the signers are lawmak-
ers. and are liable to a charge of
bribery.
The two and half cents is paid
for signatures to cover the cost of
securing them, and does not go
to the signers. Some Ohioans are
indignant at the imputation they
can be bought for two and a half
cents, a half a nickel, a quarter of
a dime.

The Citizens and the Fly Fight,

1t is gratifying to find the various citi-
zens associations of the District so
hearty in their approval of The Stars
work against the flies during the past
summer. This is an indication that the
true significance OF the anti-fy crusade
is appreciated by householders. To the
extent that the people cooperate in the
fight against these disease carriers the
city will be made healthful. No perma-
nent gain can come from q spasmodic
slaughter of flies, even mounting directly
into the millions, and, in terms Of fly re-
production, into the hundreds Of millions
The fly killing that The Star encouraged
by offering prizes to the children last
spring and summer was only part of the
work that has to be done. for flies are
symptoms of the dirt disease. II the city
is kept clean. II breeding places are elm
mated through the careful management
Of business and domestic premises. and
II a high standard Of sanitation is main
tained everywhere and by every one
there will be no flies and fiy-killing cru
sades will be needless. The Star hopes
to impress this truth effectively upon all
Washington. partly through the en-
deavors Of the children who enlisted In
last seasons campaign and partly. If
need be, by the occasional prosecution

1t is reassuring to the government en-

leStion last year that the committee will

ther attempt, by means of a necessarily
passing appropriation bill, TO modify the
conditions of administrative tenure. If

OF the superannuated and the application

under any guise. The government work

term. They should be given to under
stand that failure to measure UP to a.
reasonable average of efficiency, de-
termined by their daily work and not by
periodical examinations. would place
their positions in jeopardy. putting them
on proof TO demonstrate their real abili-
ties. But above all they should be given
an assurance that as long as they main
tain the required standard they will be
retained in the service, and that after
a certain length Of time, or reaching a
certain age, they will be retired upon a.
competence. thus clearing the way in the
ranks for younger workers. Mere alb
stenton from alarming innovations such
as fixed tenure plan does not measure
the duty Of Congress in regard to the
departmental service. 1t should take
early account of the fact that owing TO
the lack Of any form of clerical retire
ment the government offices are now con-
gested with employees who have given
valuable and faithful service during
many years. and who now, through no
fault of their own, are below the stand
ard. and whose dismissal cannot be ac-
comphshed without cruelty.

The Tariff Next Spring.

Mr.. Wilson has taken the expected step.
and both parties will ndorse it. Tariff
revision Is uppermost in public thought,
and the sooner the country knows just
what the democratic victory means on
that subject the better. For notwith-
standing assertions all we'll intended, to
the contrary, the business world is un-
easy as to what form revision will take,
and how far it will go.
The notice given by the President-elect
shows him as contemplating work on
only few schedules For the present
at least the bulk of the Payne law will
not figure in his recommendations for
action.
What schedules has he in mind? Pre-
sumabIy those upon which the present
House has already passed II SO. the spe
cial session need not he protracted Mr.
Underwood will have but to reintroduce
the bills vetoed by Mr. Taft. send them
over to a friendly Senate. which in turn
should send them to a friendly executive.
who should promptly sign them. Two
months should be sufficient for such a
program.
But will this be done? Does Mr.. Tn
derwood view those bills now as when
he presented and passed them last
Spring? If he changes them. it will be
somewhat at the peril of his criticism of
the Presidents vetoes. Mr.. Taft held
that they should be changed, and offered
10 sign bills more carefully prepared. If
the bills are not changed, then the wool
industries, the cotton industries. some of
the metal industries. and particularly the
sugar ndustries-Louisiana leading the
Chorus-are going to raise an ear-racking
protest. They want no such measures
enacted into law.
Mn Underwood and his friends need not
tie limited by the Presidents message
If upon more mature thought they should
decide To overhaul the whole Payne law,
which they have condemned in its en-
tirety, and put in its place law con-
forming 10 the platform upon which Mr.
Wilson won over Mr.. Taft. they will be
at liberty to do so. The President but
proposes. 1t is Congress that disposes
But much will be gained for business
by the assembling of Congress to carry
out at once in some form the mandate
delivered on the 9TH instant 1t is true,
business is not suffering. Bad as the
Payne law has been described. and as
pronounced as have been the two verdicts
against 1t at the polls. after two years of
its operation capital is employed in larger
sums than ever before, and labor has
jobs at high wages. STILL the people have
ordered revision. and the democratic
party as their chosen agent should begin
as soon as possible to obey the order.
Difficulties are to be expected but they
inhere in all big legislative undertakings.
The tariff always presents them.

democrats. would have shown at least
that many for the other side. The re-
publicans would have had a walk-away.
1t is true, as the Courier-Journal says.
that the system has grown up under
republican rule; but it is also to he re-
membered that it has had in all the
stages of its growth the most liberal DEM
ocratic support. No finer record has been
made by southern members of Congress
nearly all of them democrats-than that
relating to providing for the men VINO
helped fight and win the war Tor the
preservation of the Union. Their votes
for pensions have been one of the best
expressions of their manhood and their
acceptance of the wars results.
And the Courier-Journal also forgets
that only last spring. when the demo-
cratic party was preparing for the presi-
Dental campaign. the democratic House
passed a pension bill, introduced by
democratic ex-Federal soldier from Ohio,
which, had it become a law. would have
added an estimated sum of s75.OO0OOO to
the governments pension charge. The
sum was so large 1t was reduced full
one-half by the Senate; and the COM
promise was accepted by both democrats
anu TepuDllcdllS
With this record staring the democracy
and the country in the face, can we
imagine the victorious party sharpening
its steel and preparing to lance the
pension system? Nothing is said about
how deep the lance should go; but in
treating a .carbuncle" a surgeon some
times goes deep. If the pension system
is a "carbuncle," the treatment should
be heroic.
But it is not ''carbuncle' Nor will
the democratic party treat 1t as such.
Such course would bring down general
and emphatic condemna ton. and ruin the
democracy on the very threshold of its
labors The governments pension charge
is large. but of all its charges is the most
strongly supported by public sentiment;
and the reduction of taxation-the revi-
sion of the Payne law-must proceed
without injury to the appropriations for
the old soldiers.

The Pay of Science.
From the Chicago Post.

While some of the civil service en-
means may be found by a new adminis-
tration TO separate them from their jobs.
it is virtually certain that the scientists
who are working for Uncle Sam in Wash
ington at a small wage feel no terror for
the future In the various scientific bu-
reaus of the government learned men are
laboring for sheer love of their work
The pay is only a fraction of that they
could command elsewhere, but through
the government channels they can make
their knowledge felt, and so they are
willing, like members Of the progressive
party. to work for the cause The gov
ernment pays its scientists niggardly sal
aries. but perhaps Uncle Sam feels that
az long as the spirit of the workers is
willing they need no other recompense
than the joy of their work. Nevertheless
1t is a mean showing which this gov
ernment makes on part of its pay rolls

fail to keep their premises in decent
order and thus contribute to the ele-
ments Of disease spread. Unfortunately
educational processes of this kind are
often carried through most effectively by
means of the punishments administered
to those who break the sanitary laws.
Cleanup weeks and fly crusades are only
stimulating influences. A truly clean city
needs no such spasmodic enterprises, and
the present hope is that Washington, as
result of constant agitation and unre-
mitting official watchfulness, will soon
come to adopt. through each Individual

sequently no flies in the District. Then

The Model Post Road.

Representa- tiVes of Virginia have laid
before the President a proposition that
deserves thoughtful consideration. They
suggest that instead of scattering in the
| form of pecemeal allotments between
the various states the appropriation of
S5oO,O0O made by Congress at the last
session for experimental postal road con-
struction in encoura cement of the good
roads movement, the President direct
that the entire amount be concentrated
in one model highway, and they urge
that this road be laid out between Alex
andria and Mount Vernon. If the piece
meal plan is adopted each state will re-
ceive about $4,000 for good roads work
a sum barely sufficient to make a single
local showing and by no means of as
sured value as an object lesson in pro-
noting good roads. Probably of more
national effect and certainly quite In
Keeping with the object of the law in
experimenting in the maintenance of a
model post road of modern construction,
would be a single highway of the best
design and the highest quality of main
tenance laid out between two historic
points, where it could be easily viewed
and used by people from all the states
The suggestion of the Virginia legisla-
tors who have urged the matter upon
the Presidents attention, however, is
open to amendment. The highway should
not start at Alexandria, but should be-
gin at Washington. or perhaps at the
nearest suitable point on the Virginia
shore, and should, as far as possible
with reference to model postal uses, fol-
low the route taken by George Wash
ington himself when he came TO this city
from his Mount Vernon home. This
would. of course, include Alexandria.
Between Mount Vernon and Alexandria
Washington travelled frequently, going
back and forth on Sundays in church
attendance. Thus the great Mount Yer
non highway, as it might be called.
would be of conspicuous historic interest
and would unquestionably be used by
many thousands of Americans in the
course of each year. There is scarcely
state in the Union that is in greater
need of good roads encouragement than
Virginia, as all who visit that common
wealth on wheels have reason to know.
The object lesson could therefore be ap-
Piled with marked effect within it's
boundaries while giving the whole coun
try the benefit of the experiment It may
have been the intention Of Congress in
framing this provision that the money
should be expended in various states
The proposal of Senator Martin and Rep
resentative Carlin, however, is clearly in
line with the spirit of the enactment, and
it should be carried through, either by
means Of the executive Interpretation of
the law as it stands or by. appropriate
amendment

Mobilization.
From the Springfield Republican.


"Mobilization" is a word punctiliously
avoided till the guns begin to shoot
diplomats shrink from such crudites OF
speech. 1t is not mobilization, of course
for England to have its fleet on a war
footing. or for Austria to be massing her
troops on the Servian frontier and calling
in her reservists from as far away as
Minnesota. 1t is not mobilization for
Russia to have one army concentrated on
the Roumanian border and another in the
Caucasus at Turkeys back door, while
for weeks English ships have been carry.
ing English coal at fancy price to
Seba stopol. Such reluctance to use the
word when 1t is common knowledge that
the thing is being done may seem little
absurd, yet diplomatic etiquette has its
value at such critical moments when
nerves are frayed and an indscreet word
might make trouble. To mobilize is
like drawing a pistol to get ready the
army and navy for an emergency is
merely cooking the pistol in the pocket
The guns of all Europe are cooked but
every day that passes makes ii less likely
that they will go off.

An Attack on Pensions.

declares that it is ripe for lancing." 1t

Oriental RuQS

If strictly analysed, it will be found that
the most progressive nation, firm or individ-
ual is the one that knows one thing and
makes speciality of it.
A dentist will progress if he sticks to
dentistry. A carpenter will progress if he
does no plastering, and SO on.
No one firm can have the knowledge of
every line of business
Upon this theory we have been en-
deavoring to know Oriental Rugs. That's
our business, and we claim to know it.
If $1,000 Rug could be sold for $3785
we are prepared to know all about it. If
rug made IS months ago could be sold for an
antique, would know about it. II
genuine Oriental Rug could be sold at auc-
ton we would know it.
But being a witness to all this, we can
readily say that such would-be competitors
do not seem to make progress.
Our first argument encourages us.
Therefore, we are still carrying on Oriental
Rug business on one-price basis. All year
around.
