gether; but not scale to an extent that means
anything in particular.
Congressman Lewis of Maryland has introduced
a proposal for general expansion and development
OF the service. He would raise the weight limit to
100 pounds, and make such simpi6cation and re-
adjustment of rates as would amount to about a
SO per cent reduction all round Both these things
are coming; certain to come There is no possible
reason why their coming should be delayed. 1t is
one of the ways of Government business to make
small concession to public demand, by way OF ex-
pertinent, with the promise that if the experiment
succeeds more concession will be made later. That
is exactly what public opinion wrenched away from
the express interests in the matter of the parcel post
1t was just a tenuous little beginning. 1t has been
vastly more successful than it had any right to be-
vastly more successful than most people really IN
formed about parcel post experience in other
countries believed it could be. II has given COM
plete demonstration that the country is ready for the
real thing right now; ready for the machine, not
the model for the engine, not the toy. Mr.. Lewis
has indicated about the proper specifications for the
engine 1t ought to be started as soon as possible.

THE BUREAU OF MARKETS.

The Department of Agriculture is perfecting as
fast as possible the organization of new Bureau
of Markets. Its object will be to help the farmer get
his products together and the consumer at less
cost than now. That means cooperation. Co
operation means combination; and almost any CON-
bnation to effect industrial or commercial purpose
is, under the present constructions of the antitrust
act, in restraint of trade.
So that what the Department of Agriculture
really needs is to get the Department of Justice to
tell it just how to proceed in order to violate the
law without seeming to violate it.
One of these days the Department of Justice will
be suring out warrant for the arrest of the De-
partment of Agriculture, for conspiring to violate
the laws of the land That is not an over-statement
Of the ludicrous possibilities in the present situation
There is no better theme for comic opera lbrethst
dealing in presentday comiques, than the spectacle
of the Secretary of Agriculture diligently boosting
for cooperation, and the Attorney General hustling
around with a club on the trail of cooperation
wherever he can find it!

THE LESSER EVIL.

In relations with Mexico, our Government is in
an embarrassing situation.
If it recalls Ambassador Henry Lane Wilson and
sends fit person in mis- place, the new ambassador
will have to be accredited Huerta, which will be
a recognition of him.
The only way to avoid recognition of Huerta is
to leave Wilson there. ..........
It's rather a close question, but on the whole il
seems if this country ought to be more concerned
to have creditable ambassador than to snub
Mexico for not having creditable President.
II its necessary to recognize Huerta in order to
get rid of Henry Lane Wilson, why, Huerta ough,
to be recognized

ONLY REQUIRES A FIGHT!

Our esteemed contemporary, the Star, has tried
an interesting experiment with slightly nconclusive
results Ii sent two reporters to ride in the Sixteenth
street herdic line get transfers to the Washington
Railway line, present them, refuse to pay fare, and
see if the conductor would eject them
The conductor told them that the transfers were
worthless, and could not be accepted; but when the
young men declined to pay fare the conductor didn't
proceed to eject them.
This makes it plain that the railway company is
willing to perform the petty larceny of refusing
transfer issued in conformity to law but it hesates
to commit assault and battery in such premises.
Amy lady, therefore, who desires to enforce her
right to ride on a herdic transfer, needs only 10
sit tight be told that she can't ride, be urged to pay
her fare be Inundated publicly, and take the chance
of an insult If she is willing to 60 through this
simple routine, she may be reasonably assured that
the corporation will not have the courage to force
an issue by ejecting her from the car.
Seems as if almost any woman ought to be
willing to do that in order ride on free transfer!
Fine, broad-gauged, public-serving, conscientious,
highoned and altogether nice corporation, isn't it?

NEW ARBITERS OF FASHION.

had one of them city wimmin outn a boat with me

stands up step out of the boat and this blame skirt
of hers is narrer she can't step moren bout

This moving tale, related at a meeting of Adiron-
dack guides promptly followed by motion

il was carried unanimously.
Will the additional rebuke end the tyrannical
reign of the hobble skirt? We fancy not. Petronius
of the Adirondacks is "butting in on subject which
he has about as much chance to influence as he has
to reform the differential calculus.
But let him not feel Inundated Others nave

mans protest conveys at least a broad constructive
hint:

NO OCCASION TO WAIT.

The experimental parcel post has been in oper-
alton since January 1, and has made good so
thoroughly that there need be no more delay about
putting the real thing into effect
In referring to the present parcel transport ar
rangement experimental il is intended to suggest
how wide is the difference between the meager
facilities now afforded and those which should be
and will be provided here, and which are provided
in other countries The parcel post of today is by
no means the real thing 1t bears about the same re-
lation to perfected parcel post that an aeroplane
freight service would to an automobile truck de-
livery system.
As now organized and operating, the parcel post
is convenience, satisfaction, and something of a
utility But the fact remains that it is only started
With an eIeven-pound weight limit its real economic
utility is not even suggested 1t can't do any of the
great service for which it is best adapted and that
the country most needs from it. 1t has been useful
in few especially favorable cases in bringing the
town consumer and the country producer closer to-

NEEDS MORE 7 IN A RECEIVER.

The mayor of Cincinnati, unable to maintain
order, to force settlement of the street car strike
or to get cars running, has issued orders that an
application be made in behalf of the city for the
appointment of receiver of the corporation
1t appears that the strike is practically settled
except for the fact that the company refuses in the
settlement, to recognize the union of employees.
A public service corporation, in this decade, that
refuses to recognize the right of its employees to
organize and to negotiate through their organization
needs more than receiver.
II needs cerebrum, cerebellum, a medulla
oblongata, and all the other parts of brain.
