President Wilson and Office Seekers

A Washington special states that
President Wilson let it be known or
Saturday that there was no imme-
date prospect of letting down the
Civil Service bars to thousands of
Democratic office seekers. The Pres
ident told Senator POmerene that SO
far he and the Cabinet had formu-
lated no policy as to appointments
for minor positions in the govern
ment service. There had been re-
port that President Wilson might
revoke the recent order of Mr.. Taft
which put $4,000 fourth class post
masters under the Civil Service, but
this report is unfounded and is
chargeable to the anxiety of indi-
viduals seeking Office.

Nantucket shoals channels are the path

Scotch Stage Coaches.
From the London Chronicle

The passing of the last stage coach in
Scotland seems like the end of a very
ancient institution, but it is by no means
SO ancient as one is apt to think it. A,
the close of the eighteenth century stage
coaches were still rare beyond Edin.
burgh. Not until 1905 were they tried
between Perth and Inverness. and regu-
lar mail coaches between Inverness and
Aberdeen were not established before
1871 The times of the old coaches were
those of a leisurely age. Forsyth, an
Elgin merchant who Travelled by the Fly
coach In 1871, records that while out oil
York he had done $50 miles in twenty
four hours, north of Edinburgh he did
only eighty-four miles In nineteen hours
In Forfar the four horses covered thir-
teen miles in three and half hours.
