NEW FREEDOM FOR THE
SPOILSMEN.
philadelphia Ledger. }

The president has signed the ur-
gent deficiency bill, which contains a
rider" exempting deputy collectors OF
internal revenue and deputy marshals
from the competitive tests of the
classified service. Mr.. Wilson's en-
PLANTATION and defense of his act IS
lame and unconvincing. He says that
his advocacy and support" of the
merit system are so well known that
he may be trusted to prevent by exc
cutive order any abuses Of the privi-
leges accorded the spoilsmen under
this act. If his support" be genuine
and wholehearted he should have on
hibited his zeal by vetoing this vicious
rider.
The fact that 1t is a rider, and II
therefore a pernicious form of legis-
lation, was enough to condemn 1t. Tho
further fact that in congress the
spailsmen were the moving Spirits in
letting down the bars should have in
spred him to check the effort to null
lily the civil service law by a veto
that would discourage further as
saults.
The viciousness of the exemption
clauses consists not alone in encour-
aging the spoilsmen and in removing
the safeguards thrown around few
confidential officials, but in multiplying
the law with respect to practically the
entire domain Of the collectors and
marshals. The National Civil Service
league, non bipartisan organization,
pronounces this rider the most seri-
Gus attack" upon the merit system
that has been made in years through
congressional action, and character
ICES it as a deliberate effort to over
throw the law in the interest Of the
worst type of spoilsmongers.
The president is still speaking kind
words for right legislation and cor
rect principles, yet he signs the bad
bills which flatly contravene his mel
llfluous doctrines.

ORE SHIPMENTS FROM
THE ST. LAWRENCE
WAGON ROAD FROM MINE TO
ADAiR WOULD FAcILI-
TATE OPERATIONS.

| Angus Sutherland returned this
week from the st, Lawrence mine, 10
Gated near the Idaho-M ontana divide,
about seven miles from Satese, witt,
which 1t Is connected by wagon road.
For some time Mr. Sutherland with
several men has been engaged In get
ting out ore and the second car was
shipped the day he returned home.
when work was suspended for the win
ter. Work will be resumed as early
as possible in the spring The St.
Lawrence is a high grade copper pro-
perty with sufficient gold values 10
materially enhance the profits The
most serious difficulty In the way Of
handling the ore profitably is the long
haul over bad road from the mine
to the railroad at Saltese. Mr.. Sutn-
erland hopes to overcome this difficult
ty next season by the construction Of
a wagon road from the mine to Ada.r.
on the Milwaukee, In Idaho. The
distance Is only about three miles and
entire route. There are no obstacles
in the way of construction and the
cost of the road would be remarkably
low compared with the usual cost Of
building wagon roads in the noun
tains.
The Milwaukee railroad company
has manifested much interest In the
development of the copper properties
along the divide The company has
under consideration the construction
of this wagon road to the st. Lawrence
and other adjacent properties which
are in position to ship ore, and It Is
believed to be quite probable that the
company will build the road next
spring.
The running of the proposed long
tunnel on the Monitor and its extcn-
sion would open the ST. Lawrence
vein at depth Of about 400 feet.

STORY OF jim WARDNER.
Characteristic Of the Early coeu
d'Alene O,timist.

Take the case of Jim Wardncr, I'm
whom the town in the famous Occur
d'Alene district Of Idaho. has been
named says the Butte Miner. No:
even his bitterist enemy has ever ac-
cused Jim of being liar; nor h3ve
his most loyal friends ever denied that
he was an irrepressible optimist! The
career of jim Wardner, in common
with that Of many old time mining
prospectors, was characterized by Vi
cissitudes.
Jim was alternately millionaire
and bankrupt. At the time of which
l speak Jim was in the latter predca
ment Meeting mutual friend on hi
street one day, he ask for loan 81
$500 to enable him to continue sink.

recently located. In return In return
Jim offered to give his friend an In
trcst in the property and held out the
lure by telling him that he was on
the edge of great pay shoot of ore
similar to one of the famous ore bod
les In the celebrated Bunker Hill &
Sullivan mine.
II feel sure" said Jim, "of all for
nations. and that ! am within three
eet Of a million dollars"
Jim obtained the $500, and his friend
did not see anything Of him until sew
eral months afterwards. when he ac-
cidently met him on the street.

mine getting on?"
WELL" replied Jim, "the last time
saw you told you that | was within
three feet of million dollars Now
l am sorry to say that the result OF
my work in the shaft makes me be-
lieve that am at least million feet
from the three dollars"

UNION pEPoTAT coEuR D'ALENE
Three Companies to Take Part ir
Building IL.

The Northern Pacific and Milwau-
kee railroads and the Red Collar boat
| line are said to be planning union
! depot at Occur d'Alene City, on the

| To hold the business Of the up-lake
and river country, which apparently
has been diverted to some extent by
the operation of the Plummer cut -oif
of the Milwaukee railroad over which
trains are run into Spokane. the Red
Collar line has planned to put fast
steamer on the run between Occur
d'Alene and St Maries for passenge
traffic only.
1t is proposed to cover the distance,
40 miles, in two hours. whereas it
takes about twice that now. The Nil
waukee passenger train now makes
the run from st. Mares into Spokane
In two hours and SO minuets. Under the
proposed plan the time of the Red Col
lar line in conjunction with the Spo-
kane & Inland. would just about equal

ELECTR|ACAT|ON BY THE
MILWAUKEE RAILROAD
PROBABILITY THAT THE ENTIRE
WESTERN END WILL USE
THAT POWER.

Continued reports continue to com,
at intervals showing that the Milwau
kee railroad company has intention @
some day coming into the Coeu
d'Alenes. Their investigation of iii
timber resources both along the rout'
into the country and in sections wher'
branches would lead out--this, with {
share of the increasing ore tonnage
Indicate that a movement may b'
made at any time. The Milwaukee
railroad system covers territory II
the Mississippi and Missouri rivel
valleys that affords the best lumbe'
market in the world. and that COM
pany or companies closely affiliated
with 1t, are directly interested In largs
timber holdings all over this part Of
the country But the milwaukee,
wants ore tonnage too. That Is EVIL
dent by the interest II manifests and
even the help it seems willing to give
ore shippers near its route In the Sal
tese district.
One feature Of the coming OF the
Milwaukee railroad into the Occur
d'Alenes, which has not been discuss
ed. is very important one. SHOULD
1t come about 1t Is probable general
electric system of transportation III
the Occur d'Alene district would be
the final result. The conclusion is has-
cd on these facts. The Milwaukee
railroad company has already con-
traeted with the Montana Power com
pany for electric power to run all us
trains across the state OF Montana
Great Falls will supply the eastern
section and Thompson Falls will sup
ply the western part into Idaho.
Long ago the company filed on all
the water power sites to be developed
along the St Joe river, where It's man
line runs. The presumption Is that
this is yet held and Is intended Tor
oparating uses across the state.
Power for its operation in eastern
washington is available at any time,
and no doubt the western end III
Washington has been looked after pV
securing power from the Cascade
mountain streams.
In Montana recently 1T was an
rounced that the contract for poles
for the electrifcation Of its road was
let. 1t is proceeding as fast as possi-
BILE to bring about this change, and
there Is hardly doubt that II Will be
auolied to its entire system west Of
the east Montana line In all Of this
section local water power is available
Consequently. should the road be
built into the Occur d'Alenes, 1t II
more than likely that electric power
would be used and that the system
would cover the entire district.

Standard. Under new process which
the Standard Oil company Of Indiana
is installing at Whiting, 1t is believed
that 1t will be possible to convert Is

gasoline. The process opens the way
for breaking up the hydrocarbons of

POLICY HOLDERS BORROW.
These Transactions Heavier Than for
Years Past,

| Life insurance companies report that
whatever the cause, policyholders are
borrowing heavily on their policies,
and at the present time such loans
outstanding are larger than at any
time since the 1907 panic. These Dor
rowings have shown steady increase
each month since last spring and there
is little prospect Of an immediate re-
duction.
There is clause in the policy con-
tract whereby the insurance company
agrees to loan on policies at q fixed
interest rate Of per cent. 1t is pos
sibie. therefore, that the 5,s to s per
cent money market has had some In
