OF THE TIMES.

President Tafts approval Of an order
transferring $1,000 more fourth class
postmastcrs to the classified service IS
another decisive blow dealt at the spolIs
system in politics. No one Is more
anxious than Mr.. Taft is to do away
with the odious practice of apporton-
ing public offices TO party workers, re-
CARELESS of their qualifications. Inc
Democratic candidate for Governor IN
This state still has the hardlhood 10
confess TO n belief-when he Is speak
ing his real mind between campalgns-
I'm the adequacy Of the Old-fashloneu
scheme Of spoliatiOn. There are many
other politicians who secretly sympa-
tbizo with that view, but who are too
cautious TO make a proclamation OF
tbeir Rourbonism. Mr.. Taft has never
welded TO the suggestions of the spolls
hunters. but throughout his administra-
tfon has shown himself an unqualihed
champion of the merit system OF ap-
pointment He has gone much further
than any Of his predecessors III urging
Congress to put into the CLASSIFIED ser
vice postmasters Of all grades, collect
ors of customs and internal revenue
surveyors. registers, land agents ana
similar officials, whose posts have al
WAYS been treated as political and sub
iect to disposal in payment Of the debts
of politicians.
The President has treated the extern
sion of the merit system as an end de-
sirable in itself, regardless Of the ef-
fects of such extension upon bis own
poIifical interests. lie has not stopped
10 coerce the support Of the ohicehold-
ers under him. and his signing of Tues
DAYS Executive order is only one more
evidence Of his personal disinterested-
ness as an administrator. Had he
sought his own advantage he would
probably have delayed putting the
$4,000 fourth class postmasters under
the protection of the merit system until
the Presidential campaign had ended.
Making the transfer now, he leaves
them free to follow their own political
inclinations without fear Of removal
No more striking evidence could be
presented Of the Presidents sincere de-
sire to forward n great reform without
any reservations due TO party politics.
Since March 4, 1909, about sixty
thousand employees in the postoftice SER
vice have been taken out Of the unpro-
tected class, and if Mr.. Taft is re-
elected his second administration will
probably see the business Of the Post
Office entirely divorced from politics.
Such a conSummation is greatly to be
desired for # the postal service IS to
be enlarged so as TO provide an ade-
uuate parcels post, the average Of eff
cheney should be materially increased.
Tenure ought to become permanent
from top to bottom, and the business Of
handling the mails conducted on the
same basis as any other successful
great business IS. The public service
has outgrOwn the spOils idea, although
there are still those who do not realize
II. in doing his utmost to modernize
all departmental operations President
Taft has shown himself a statesman
abreast Of his age, TO whose hands the
administration Of the government may
again be committed with confidence
and safety

PRICES GO Up
FIX BLAME ON AUTO

Chicago Record Herald: Automobiles,
not content with e%ncroaching upon the
domain of the horse, will on or before
Sept. list have another sin to answer for.
The price of shoes is going up and the
automobile is blamed by manufacturer
ers and dealers as being the principal
AUS of the increase in the price of
leather.
Those who have been accustomed to
paying S. a pair for their fall footwear
will be compelled to add another dollar
to their shoe allowance this year or be
content with an inferior quality of foot
wear. Not only does the raise affect
shoes of the IS variety, but shoes of all
grades and prices.
"A 20 per cent raise in price on all
shoes on or before Sept. 1st, lis the
word which manufacturers are sending
out to wholesalers and retailers.
THE price of all sorts of shoes is
III to be increased before Sept. 1st."
said j. Harry SELF of the SELF Schwab
Company yesterday. Only yesterday
We were figuring up the price of leather.
and we found that since Jan. i. 1908,
the. cost of leather had increased ~ per
cent. The price of shoes has been raised
from time to time to keep pace with
this increase in the cost of leather, but
another boost to the shoe price is now
due.
We have not made any increa Sc in
the price recently. but we have notified
our patrons that on or before Sept. 1st,
an increase of about 20 per zen must
be made.
There are many reasons for this in
creased price of leather, but the popular
ity of the automobile is one of the prin.
cipal causes. The average man does not
know how any sides of leather are be-
ing used today in the manufacture of
automobiles. The great trouble is that
the uses for leather are increasing daily
and the supply of the raw material is
decreasing. The larger ranges of the
West are being cut up into small farms
and the owner is now raising cereals
instead Of cattle and sheep.
"Also. the population of the world
is increasing and more shoes are being
worn each year. This is true not only
in the United States. but all over the
world. Every variety of leather is in
creasing in price, and l think they will
continue to do So"
Shoes, however, are not the only ar
ticles of wearing apparel which are ad-
vancing in price. The fall suit in
1912 will cost more than did it's prede-
cessor in 1911. The American Wooden
Company yesterday opened its lines in
New York and the prices showed an in
crease in price of from 10 to 20 cents
a ward.
