Tauoht Mental Cleanliness.

Murphy abandoned the old Idea Of
working and steaming his men Ike mules.
He made II plain to every man who came

He himself was a devoted family man
and mingled little with the professional
sporting element. His brother. Tad"

some time ago.

would almost fill a book. Among them

Strange and Contradictory Demands

Special interests are not always wise
or reasonable in what they demand Of
the lawmaking power. Just now the
labor unions are besieging Congress
for three things that cannot exist to-
gether as long as business is carried on
with sober reason and common sense
The three are:
/. Shorter hours of labor.
2. Increased pay per day or by the
piece.
3. Legislation that shall reduce the
cost Of living.
If any man can figure out how all
three Of these conditions can be
brought about and still the volume OF
business and labor be keptup we would
like TO see the figures.
But the labor people can bank their
last dollar or vote, on one fact and that
is that there will arise host OF dema-

The Civil Service examinations for
fourth-cass postmasters will no. be
severe, according to Washington DIS
patch, "but will be sufficient to test
the business capacity of the applicants"
The same dispatch goes on to say
that postmasters must have reason
able understanding of "readin', 'ritin'
and 'rithmetic.h If that is the extent
of the examination it should have few
terrors for the office-seeker. Assuredly
one who has not Some business ca
pacity and some education should not
be appointed postmaster. The fact that
not much Of either is required TO carry
on small post-oilices does not lessen the
desirability Of eleyating the standard of
qualification.
The fourth-class post-ollices are be-
ing eliminated with the extension OF
rural free delivery In most counties
they are becoming fewer in number. In
consequence there should be a larger
proportion of competent persons to fiji
them, especially when it is considered
that the educational status of the PEG
pie has been improving while the mum
Der Of post-otiices has been decreasing
The honors and emoluments of a
fourth-class Office are not such as tc
appeal TO the ambitious individual who
yearns for combination of that sort
But offices, however small, should be
filed by persons who are capable O
discharging their duties. 1t is not un
reasonable TO require that postmaster
should have little book learning; tina
they should be able to write an intelli
gible letter; that they should have
degree Of general information AM
should be able TO keep the accounts G
their offices and make out the necces
sary reports without outside asst.
lance. And that appears TO be abou
all that the department is insstln
upon.
