A CONCRETE EXAMPLE.

On last Saturday an examina-
ton was held in the Office Of
County Superintendent Barkerfor
County Diplomas, in which any
boy or girl in the county, who
deemed themselves sufficiently
advanced in the common school
course, had the privilege to enter.
Any boy or girl who successfully
passes this examination and is
granted a diploma may attend
the West Liberty High School or
the Normal Department free Of
tuition, The date Of holding this
examination had been advertised
in the LICKING VALLEY COURIER
for several weeks About 10 Or
II o'clock, A. NJ, on the day Of
the examination, after it was too
late to enter, a citizen of the
county approached Supt. Barker
and said: I wanted my girl to
take this examination, but | had
not been informed Of the date
and didn't know when it was to
be held" Mr.. Barker very APP
propriately asked him il he was
a subscriber to his county paper.
The gentleman told him that he
was not, whereupon the Super.
intendent informed him that he
had lost $4,000 by not being {
subscriber. That If his daugh
ter attended either the Normal o.
High School he would have t.
pay the tuition in full.
This-is just one example Of th'
advantage gained by being ;
regular subscriber to the news
, paper published in the county il
, which you live.

Civil Service,

Somehow | can't understand
my friend Woody Wilson. He
keeps talking like a college pro-
fessor instead of the elect of the
unterrifed-and hungry democ-
racy. This talking about civil
service sounds all right in lee
lures and magazine articles, but
when a fellow wants the post
Office as badly as do, it is down
right aggravating to hear it

The theory is that it keeps the
force efficient and does not de-
moralize the service by putting
in incompetents, l agree that if
those who hold, and who have
never passed an examination, be
fired, and let the places be filled
by those who can and will pass
the said examination, it might be
we'll enough, but it is rot of the
rankest kind to say that the SER
vice will be bettered by holding
over unexamined republicans.
Let the rule be that all ofiicehold-
ers who have not passed the eX-
animation be removed and then
places filled by those who success
fully pass.

1t was one of the smallest Of

administration. 1t was inspired
by impotent rage at his certain
defeat. It was the smallest cali
bre of petty revenge upon the
men who were against him. II
he had really been a big man he
would have awaited the result Of
the election and, if defeated, left
the matter to his successor. If
he were broad-gauge man he
would yet recall this order. But
he is not.

however, the new democratic
Congress that was elected last
fall are fresh from the people
and know the temper of their
constituents, and will see to it
that the republicans are remov-
ed from Office, body and breech-
es, and that the loyal democrats
are given the places. Then, if
it be felt that it is necessary to
apply the civil service rules to
fourth-class postofices, the new
appointees could be required to
pass the examinations and there
would be eliminated the hangers

DOBSON TALKS
On STATUS OF
INLAND ROUTE
PROSPECTS ARE BRIGHT FOR Sc
CURING THE PENsAcoLA-Mo.
BILE CANAL, SAYS PRESIDENT
OF COMMERCIAL ASSOCIATION.

Prospects are exceedingly bright for
securing an appropriation for the Pen
sacola- Mobile canal, notwithstanding
the interview given out in Mobile by
an army engineer, who appears to be
somewhat behind in his informa ton on
this subject. possibly due to the fact
that the matter is in the hands of other
engineers OF somewhat higher rank.
President G. E. Dobson, of the COM
turned from Washington. yesterday is
sued the following statement on the
matter:
II notice an article in your paper
this morning which may have discour-
aged some of those interested in the
Pensa cola Mobile canal, I think with
out due cause. In it the engineer of
ficer at Mobile is quoted as saying that
he knows of no early prospect for the
canal and of no report male lately
concerning it.
HE says also, however, that there
may be some activity without his
knowledge. This is the case. Two re-
ports have been made lately relative
to the canal. in whole or in part, by
Major Brown and Colonel Beach, both
army engineers, one in charge OF this
district, with headquarters at Mont
gomery, the other, head Of the special
board to report on these projects along
the gulf. While the money has not
been appropriated, the matter is in
better shape than it has ever been.
Our trouble has been to get a ia
vorable report for prompt action from
what l may call the board of last re-
sort. With that, we could have already
had an appropriation, but they have
refused it heretofore. Before left
Washington, however, I was given to
understand that If we got a survey in
the present bill in the shape they sug-
gested, we would get favorable action.
I'VE got the survey IN the bill in the
senate. and 1t is very unlikely that it
was eliminated in conference. Con-
sequently, 1t seems to me that the
prospects are excellent for an appro-
priation in the next rivers and harbors

what it had and we lank northerners
had to come down and find the indus
triaH south.
He said that all this city needs to do
is tell the northern manufacturers
what it has in the way of natural ad-
vantages and suggests that a small
book, giving real information relative
to railroads, the number of bank de-
posttors, the commercial association
and other things which appeal to man
ufacturers be gotten out He told his
audience not to embellish it with any
picture of parks. bayous, handsome
buildings or things of that kind, as
all the manufacturer wants to know is
whether he will be able to get his
product out.
MAKES REPLIES.
When he had concluded he was
asked questions by George II. Hervey,
w. NJ. Herrider and others.
Mr.. Hervey asked his opinion re-
garding plan which he has urged
here and in Mobile with no success.
The plan is to have ten business men
devote all possible time for ninety days
to studying transportation. shipping
and other things of interest to pros
pective manufacturerers. each man
taking one particular branch, and then
combining the reports of all as con-
cretely as possible into a book of in
formation.
Mr.. Tope said that was just the
idea and that Mr.. Hervey's plan could
scarcely be improved upon. He said II
should be done and that Pensacola can
not start too quickly.
Answering Mr.. Herrider relative to
small manufacturers, he said that
there are number of small manufac-
rryh.4
have working space on a lease basis.
The real estate men of Pensacola, he
said, could make an excellent invest
ment if they would build a structure
offering space and power to small
manufacturers, ten. twenty or more of
which may occupy a single building.
He says he has but one such concern
on his lists and that they have SIM
ply grown so rapidly and are so busy
making extensions they don't feel like
increasing their capital at once and
would lease a suitable building and
buy it when they can do so.
Immediate housing on a rental basis
is the best inducement to the small
he said.
LIKES THE CITY.
Mr.. Tope has been here but a couple
Of days and says he has seen but little
OF the city. He will spend today
motoring with Secretary Henderson
and others and will study the situation
He is interested only in
placing his clients to the best advan-
tage, and says he don't even care
about the banks, except as their, lists
Of depositors may show the people to
be thrifty.
He says he is greatly surprised at
the apparent possibilities of the city
and is convinced now, from the slight
study possible, that it has a great flu
ture.

OF the material plus rail haul both
ways and number of profits on
everything manufactured in the east.
Only per cent of the manufactures
Of the country are located in the vast
producing region Of which this part OF
Florida is a part.
SOUTH'S FAULT.
That it is the fault of the south is
the charge of Mr.. Tope. He says
there are few manufacturers to whom
it has occurred that in the south there
might be cities with excellent natural
advantages nearer the field of produc-
ton which offered easy distribution Of
goods.
There are fifty different lines, he
says, which may be manufactured in
the south much more profitably than
in the east.
Mr.. Tope says he has been instru-
mental in the last few years in finding
sites in the new industrial belt for
more than 800 manufacturers.

part of the country before or move
sooner is the fault of the SOUTH he
