Young America is taught that the
United States pays the president $751;
900 yearly for appointing postmasters,
reviewing fleets, riding at the head of
%parades, and inciden tally supervising
governmental machinery.
One seldom hears of any other sums
connected with the presidents office,
but an inspection of a report recently
issued by the secretary of the treasury
shows the chief executive to be just
a bit more expensive than popular sup
position credits him with being.
Congress willing, and since the econ
Omy banner has been hoisted it may
not be, the United States will spend
$S2O.790 in the fiscal year 1914, which
begins July /, to maintain it's executive
establishment, including the president,
the White House and trimmings. The
fiscal year of 1913 cost about a quar-
ter million less than that.
The presidents salary is $4,000 a
year. The other dollars are for Incl
dentals."
His assistants, secretaries, clerks,
stenographers, mes sengers, etc., are
expected to cost $71 ,040 next year, a
saving of about $1,000. That doesn't
include his chief assistant, the vice
president, at $4,000 a year. Station
cry, kilograms, telephones, motor cars
and books will add $25, 900 more.
Ordinary care and extraordinary re-
pairs in 1913 cost $53, 00O.,
Then outside the listed cost of what
a recent Canadian visitor called "a
king who ruled, but didn't reign" the
navy burns up a few thousands in pow
der saluting him every year, the army
ditto, and the nation spends another
bunch, unofficially, of course, quitting
work a half day or running up to the
county seat to see the president wave
his hat from the rear platform of a
private car.

MEMORIAL SERVICES
FOR LATE VICE PRESIDENT JAMES
s. SHERMAN HELD IN SENATE
CHAMBER SATURDAY.
BOTH HOUSES SUSPEND SESSIONS
President Taft, Cabinet and Diplomats
Assemble at Services-Senator
Galiinger and Others Con-
tribute Encomiums.

Washington. = President Taft, his
cabinet, the entire house of represent
atives, the senate, the supreme court
and the diplomatic corps assembled
Saturday in the senate chamber at me-
mortal services for the late vice presi-
dent, James s. Sherman.
With all it's solemnity it was a
scene of color and dignity, the presi-
dent being thanked by the somber-
robed justices of the supreme court
and the brilliantly dressed diplomats,
arrayed in full court costume. 1t was
said by the senate historians to have
been the first time since Washington
that a president had entered the SEN
ate chamber while congress was in
session.
Taft Praises Qualities of Man.
Both houses suspended business to
hear addresses eulogizing the late vice
president by President Taft, Speaker
Clark and many senators and repre-
sentatives.
The president said in part: mi.
Sherman was a man with whom no
one could come in contact without feel
ing better for the meeting, and with a
more kindly disposition toward his
fellowmen and the world at large.
HE loved politics; he correctly
thought that he could be engaged in
nothing more useful to his country and
became a partizan on principle. He
came to believe thoroughly and, in my
judgment, rightly, that the only posi-
BILE can of securing effective, perma-
nent and just popular government,
truly representative Of the people, was
through parties and, therefore, he was
willing to give up much of his per-
sonal judgment to reconcile the views
of himself and associates on a few
great principles.
Able Statesman; Noble Man.
HE was an influential and leading
member of the house during the con-
%troversies that took place over the
question whether it should be per-
mitted to do business, or should be at
the mercy of the minority, and he stood
with one of the great speakers of hat
body.
1--WE have celebrated the memorial of
a modest American, a disinterested
patriot, an able statesman and a noble
man."
High tribute to the fairness and ca
pacity of Mr.. Sherman was paid by
Senator Gallinger, to whom he had
confided his fears of being forced to
retire from the vice presidents chair
before the end of his term.
The former vice presidents long
service as a member of the house was
reviewed by Senator Lodge.
Other senators touched upon the re-
markable capacity of the late vice
president for attracting friendship of
men.
The tribute of the house of repre-
sentatives to it's former member, who
for many years was head of influential
committees, was paid by Speaker
Champ Clark. "Mr. Sherman" he said,
was n of those unusual men who
had been able to learn the traditions
and practices of both the house and
senate"
"He had himself so we'll in hand
that he could not be baited into an ex-
hibition of bad temper" said the
speaker"

Suggests One for New York at 1917
Fair at San Francisco.

Part of the 100000 to be spent by
New York state for representation at

position to be held at San Francisco
in 1915 should be used for the erection
of a monument at the Golden Gate, to

believes a memorial can be erected at
a cost of $3.50, 900.
