Empty Ambition.

do not ask for office and do not ASK
for pay.
But I somehow share the general de.
sire
To reach situation where I'm out upon
display
For strangers on the sidewalk to ad-
mire.
I do not claim to understand the coun-
try's voting game
In a way that might extend substantial
aid,
But I'll stand around and cheer the men
who talk about the same,
If they'll only let me march in the pa
rade
Let the others do the thinking. Let the
others do the work.
Each man has limitations, as we know
When the pageantry assemblies. will not
be found a shirk,
Though humble be my portion Of the
show.
hope some day to be the big drum
major Of a band,
And lead the pomp so joyously arrayed
To celebrate a lot of things / do not un-
derstand.
So, Mister. let me march in the parade

Wages and Tips.
ON the New York World.

From the New York World.
The hotel workers ask for better condi.
tons Of work along with better pay, but
the essential feature Of their demand is
for the following minimum wage scale
week; Omnibus employees, ST; chamber.
maids. So; porters. $12. and bellboys, ST.
These rates. it is to be borne in mind, are
not those now in force, but represent a
10 per cent increase. and the fact affords
an informing illustration of the extent to
which hotel managers have come to RELY
on the public to help their employees exc
out low wage with tips. This is far be-
low the average rate of compensation for
labor in other branches of industry But
that customers must directly pay a par,
OF employees wages has not gained gen
eral acceptance 1t is only in hotels and
restaurants and with the Pullman com
pany that 1t obtains as a regular policy.

For Good Roads, Long Roads.
rom the New York Times,

The good roads Of this state are not
continuous. Because the $4,000, 600 ap-
propriated for their building was pro-
portioned "equitably'' among the several
counties. 1t was squandered on short
stretches of highway that begin nowhere,
end nowhere. and serve chiefly TO line the
pockets of local contractors who built
them and are employed to keep them up.
The American Association for Highway
Improvement was born late, but not too
late. Its mission since November o. 1910
has been to advocate the correlation OF
all road construction so that the i'm
portant roads Of each county shall con-
meet with those of the adjoining counties
and those of each state with the roads
Of adjoining states. Piecemeal road
building is not peculiar to this state

An Adjournment Proposal.

Chairman Underwood of the House
committee on ways and means. the ma
jority leader on the floor. has a sugges-
ton for adjournment which runs counter
to the accepted idea of congressional ses-
sions- The Constitution provides that
neither house. during the session OF
Congress. shall. without the consent of
the other, adjourn for more than three
days. nor to any other place than that in
which the two houses shall be sitting
Under this provision the custom las been

From the Boston Post.

From the Boston Post.
People smile and say that, true to their
love for the theatric. the French police
used a good deal of the limelight in their

last of the notorious scoundrel gang. the

taken refuge they hurled bullets, dyna-
mite projectiles and finally the terrible

savage barks." through the broken walls.
They employed searchlight. They had
a zouave bugler sound fire. cease
firing and retreat. And fifty or more
moving picture machines were on the
job all the time. Spectacular. yes. But
and let this not be forgotten-a gang
that has committed twenty-three murders
in five months has been wiped off the
earth. Theatric-but effective.

Gettysburg!
From the Chicago Journal.

From the Chicago JOurnaI.
Acceptance by the Confederate veterans
OF the invitation to participate. with the
Grand Army, in the Gettysburg celebra-
ton next year. furnishes assurance Of the
most remarkable military demonstration
ever known in history. Men in gray and
men in blue will mingle. not as cham
pions of any issue involved in the war
in which they fought against each other.
but in their mingling will be occasion
for recognition by the world of the yalor
which inspired both sides. The demon
stration will be simply a gathering of
dauntless American soldiers-not an
occasion for any least renewal Of discuss
sion Of questions which divided them in
the days Of conflict.

FAVORED IN HIS NEW HOME
Harold Proctor and Bishop Speak From
Same Platforf

That Harold 2. Proctor is meeting

hop McGolrick and H. p. Proctor, Jr.,
were the speakers of the day, both de-
livering orations that aroused in their
hearers the thrills OF patriotic fervor
Mr.. Proctor is newcomer TO the city,
but his repution as public speaker of
more than ordinary merit had preceded
him and for this reason he was urged
to give the GRAFTON of the day, and
accepted. His speech was master
piece of eloquence. Coming as it did
from stranger. whose powers were
