Miss Barbara Rutherfurd, Whose Admiration for
Dogs Can Hardly Be Expected to Include
Mrs. Raymond Bemont's Prize Winners.

From New York Pansy was taken to
Boston, and there won another blue
ribbon, but the effect on the Belmont
family was electrical. And society itself
took up the cudgels for the much-tried
family.
Let us freeze Pansy out" said society,
"let us make her realize that she belongs
in another class"
But the judges said mo. no, Pansy Is a
winner and cannot be ignored. even II she
does send the Belmonts from the field"
Society, however, took it's revenge on
Pansy's owner by not noticing her or her
dog at ALL 1t was as though neither dog
nor mistress existed.
81 am being revenged, however" was
Mrs. Raymond's daily thought, and 1t was
a great comfort to her, indeed. Revenge
Is ever sweet
But not until recently did Mrs. Ray
mond realize the real depth and exquisite
ness of her revenge. Not until she learned
that her marriage has interfered with the
pet dream Of her father-in-law's heart, that
Raymond should marry the younger
daughter Of Mrs. William K. Vanderbilt,
Miss Barbara Rutherfurd, also lover OF
Pekinese dogs.
Oh, the double.barreled revenge! Just
at the time that Mrs. Raymond was plan
ming her bow-wow revenge Miss Rutherfurd
announced that she would enter her beau
tiful Tossie, a pure-blooded Pekinese,
worth several thousand dollars, in the
Mineola show, but she had to withdraw
Tossie when she heard that Pansy was to
be shown 1t was bad enough to lose the
men she had planned to marry, but 1t was
worse to lose the chance to show her lovely
Tossie, she said.
"Ah, but revenge is sweet" sang Mrs.

swered her loving mistress.
But young Mrs. Raymond's revenge was
only too complete. The Belmonts already
knew that her name was on the exhibitors
list and, of course, they withdrew their
dogs and stayed at home. This was par
ticularly hard on the Augie Belmonts, for
they had some perfectly lovely Pekinese
pups that they knew would sweep all be-
fore them. But young Mrs Belmont, who
was very naughty young beauty before
she married August, junior, utterly re-
sisterin-law, and she did not even want
her pups to meet the new Pansy.
But" said Mrs. Augle to her father-in-
law, whose word In his own family has
always been law. but she is only doing
this to tease us temporarily, or perhaps
she does not know how 1t does tease us.
She will not go to any Of the other shows
am sure"
But she did. The effect OF her presence
at Mineola pleased her so much that Mrs.
Raymond decided to follow the dog circuit
and show her dog all over the country.
An underground current took this sad
information to the Belmonts.
"Bow.wow-wow." parked the big dogs In
the Belmont kennels, and "bow-wow-wow"
yapped the little dogs in the same ken
nels, why are we not being sent to the
shows, why are we not winning any more
beautiful blue ribbons?"
This bow.wowing was heard up at the
house where the Belmont family was in
consultation.
Can you not do something's" asked Mrs
Belmont OF her powerful husband, "can
you not keep this Pansy from being
shown"
But such course was impossible under

A FINE BIT OF IRONY

what an inexcusable thing it Is in
Republican to remember that he is
Republican in these piping times of De-
mocracy. Democrats are expected al
ways to remember that they are Dem
ocrat', and always TO push Democratic
ideas. But for Republicans to remem-
Der that they are Republicans. and to
keep their party principles in view, is
the height of ofensiveness.
We are moved to these reflections bv
an editorial paragraph in the Boston
Globe, which is stiff Democratic
newspaper. The expression in the
Globe relates TO the Democratic parti.
san currency bill which is now pending
in the House Banking and Currency
committee. That bill is plainly and un-
disgIisedly political partisan bill;
not molly so, but IL ia drawn and was
arranged in its proposed working so
that II will be shield Of protection
to the Democratic partisan tariff bill.
And so it is doubly partisan, partisan
in itself and partisan in the service
which it is expected to render to an
other partisan bill, the effects of vhicn
are likely to cause trouble. To avert
this trouble which may ensue upon the
passage Of the Democratic partisan
tariff bill, this Democratic partisan cur
rency bin has been devised. It is 20
drawn that the Democratic partisan Re.
serve Board will have complete control
over the money and Of the operation of
all the National banks. All these banks
will be forced to come into this cur
rency scheme, and State banking and
trust companies win be allowed to
by Democratic partisan board. which
by this bill is given the supervision Of
all the banks and the direction. Of their
operations
IL has been announced from Wash
ington that Republican Senators will
probably oppose this bill. both because
Of its intent and because Of its parti-
san provisions, This Republican oppo-
sition is denounced in the following
terms by the Boston Globe:
We arc told from Washington that some
Of the Republican leaders in Congress
have taken the ground that It would be
good politics for the minority TO support

Sure enough! What a pity it is that
politics should influence the action OF
any Congressman on this partisan cur
rencv bill, which is "of such impor-
tance to tho business interests Of the

not, that Republican partisans should

NOT BREAK, BUT CoMPACTNG.

An Eastern contemporary, IN com
menting upon the new charter adopted
bv DAYTON. Ohio, claims that it is a
break with the theory Of commission
government as il has been understood
hitherto. But that is hardly an exact
way TO look upon the new charter Of
DAYTON. This new charter embraces
the commission idea, but provides for
the separation OF the legislative and
the executive functions, which are
usually merged in the commission form.
In so far as this Is done, II is re
turn 10 the basic idea of the govern
ment under which we live. We con
slider, however. that the DAYTON change
is n consolidation of the commission
form, and not breach in il. The com
mission that is to be elected IN Dayton
will be 4 legislative body chiefly, and
the mayor will preside at the commits
sion meetings. But the executive head
OF the city will be the City Manager.
Hc viii be appointed by the Mayor, and
his salary will be fixed ny the commits
sion. He will enforce his administra-
tive activities through appointments
and removals, and be subject TO civil
service regulations In tho entire ad.
ministration, and will attend TO all
city functions. exclusive of the courts
and the schools
There is no doubt but that the de
velopment of the commission form a,
shown by this Dayton charter is =
good advance upon the old commission
idea. The appointment of a City Man
ager. however, as proposed in that bill
could be more easily carried out by
making the Mayor the City Manage
and allowing the commission TO be tn,

THE ZEPPELIN IDEA

There Is keen rivalry between the
Zeppelin form Of airship, which is
buoyed up by gas. and the heavier
than.air type, represented in the bi-
plane and the monoplane. But many
of the Zeppelin airships have come 90
grief. and the investment in them has
been loss heretofore. Yet they have
achieved successes beyond all comparI-
son with tho heavier-than-air machines
The Zeppelin type are able to stay ia
the air many hours AZ time and TO
make unassisted journeys of immense
distances, while the monoplaues or hi.
planes have 20 light frequently 20

the people for that purpose. It would be
our idea that the commission should en-
brace larger number than the small
number now composing the commits
sion. and we would have these com
missiouers elected each from small dis
tricts. representing closely and directly
the people. But we would segregate
their functions altogether from those
of the executive or administrative
branch of the government; leaving each
dependent upon the people, and each
absolutely independent of the other.
The DAYTON proposition is simply an
expression Of the business idea, as pur-
sued in StauntoD, Virginia, and other
places throughout the country. II is
found that the General Manager idea is
gaining ground, but whether he is 10 be
called a General Manager or Mayor is
immaterial. The main thing is that the
executive and administrative business
of city should be in the hands of
an independent executive. For. after
all. city s affairs. in the administra.
tive functions of them, are business,
and nothing else; but il is important TO
preserve the legislative functions sepa-
rate from and independent OF the
administrative function; and so we
would have n larger legislative body,
confined strictly TO legislative func-
tions, and then the Mayor or Gen
eral Manager, (the name of the Official
being indifrerent,) to manage without
restraint and with full power of mp
pointing his assistants, precisely as
managers and superintendent Of large
business operations do, the city bust
ness being conducted on the same sort
Of business basis as has been found so
