cock announcement is rather vague
and unsatisfactory. The Postmaster
General believes that 1t would be
good business economy and sound
policy to take over the telegraphs
and operate them in connection with
the postal service. He would have
recommended such action to Con-
gress a year ago, but he was in
duced to pass over the matter, as he
had other advanced things to pro-
pose and WAS going to have his
hands fall. This year he somehow
failed to consult the President and
his associates, and his recommends
ton, with arguments, accidentally
found their way into print.
or course, Mr.. Hitchcock, being a
level-headed man, would not have
willfully put the administration ia
false light. What lie personally
believes with regard to nationaliza-
ton of the telegraph does not COM
nit the administration, but his
statement as issued was certainly
more than personal opinion. 1t
seemed to express an official inten-
ton and decision.
Although Senator'S Cullom and
Smith, who ara not known as Pro-
gresslves, hasten, ON administrative
grounds, to indorse the suggestion
of Mr.. Hitchcock, which, by the
way, is not found even in the La
Toilette platform, it Is not neces-
sary to enter upon any controversy
on the matter. The Taft cabinet
has not recommended and will not
recommend the taking over and the
operation of the telegraph system.
Mr.. Hitchcock speaks for himself,
and the recommendation will be a
three days sensation, nothing more.
We are not ready for the step; there
are other economies and improve
ments to be attended TO in the pos
. tai service, as to which there Is lit
tile or no contention between moder-
ates and radicals.
The point Is that the strangely
accidental appearance 1of startling

Welcome, Lumbermen!

Lack of cooperation on the part

put damper on the convention of
the Retail Lumber Dealers Assoeia-
ton. A few of the delegates and
statesmen arrived Wednesday night,

been falling for more than an hour
and things were looking mighty blue
for the Reception Committee. well,
We'll give them the best we have"
sighed a member of the committee.
ANYWAY, they won't blame us for
the bad weather" To the surprise
of the entire reception committee.
the visitors went after things Just as
II 1t had not rained in Cairo for
weeks. In their enthusiasm some
of the visitors even ventured out
into the open minus umbrellas and
raincoats. Cairo is hospitable city
and 1t has many friends among the
lumbermen, especially those who
have visited the city on previous &C.
casions, The inclement weather
necessitated few changes in the
program, but despite this the lum.
bermen will receive the best Cairo

basis of settlement can not be
reached.
And, we have no doubt that some
agreement can be reached that will
be satisfactory to both sides, and
most pleasing to the innocent suf'
ferers. We appreciate the fact that
/, both sides are fighting for prin-
ciple, but there can be an honorable
adjustment of the differences, and
it is the duty Of the citizens of Pa
ducah to use their influence in get
ting the two interests TO arbitrate
The employees say they are ready
and have been ready to discuss
measures of settlement but that the
railroad company has denied hear
ing, but we hope this is not true.
1t is evident to us that both sides
to the controversy have suffered
just how much none of us know
aud it is very evident that the great
number of persons who have assumed
a neutral attitude during the diff.
ferences may witness passing OF
that feeling.
We do not know anything Of the
merits Of the contentious of either
