BY ARTHUR w. DUNN.
Washington, Jan. 80. = GSpecial.1 =
Woodrow Wilson is not going to please
all. Everybody will not be satisfied
with all his cabinet appointments. It
IL doubtful IL any man ever elected to
the presidency received so much adj
vice from so many people as has Gov
ernor Wilson in the past three months.
Naturally this advice is along different
lines, much Of it in direct antagonism,
just as men oppose each other. Gov
ernor Wilson has been seeking advice.
He has been listening to everything
that his many visitors have had to say
to him, and he has been deluged with
the ideas of those who think they know
all about running the government.
Many of these men will wait to see
how much attention has been paid to
them. AS Wilson goes along in the
presidency they will discover that he
Is not following their advice. There
will also be the unheeded advice OF the
newspapers, which have been telling
him exactly what to do. Then the
storm of discomfort and criticism will
break, Just as it has broken over the
head Of every other president who has
been flooded with so much instruction
as to what he should do when he
reached his powerful position.

Opening Sealed Letters.
eff there is a law authorizing the
postmaster general or any of his sub
ordinates to open a letter with two
cent stamp on it am not aware Of it.
Thus spoke former Speaker Cannon in
the house in colloquy with Congress
man Jackson about the power exer-
cised by the postofice department over
mails.
I'VE have now" asserted the Kansas
congressman. machinery and officials
who open letters and examine mail to
see whether or not the law is violated.
Does the gentleman deny the authori-
II Of the department to do so?"
81 do absolutely deny it," emphatic
ally declared Cannon.
Then you should inform the presi-
dent" replied jackson.
Congressman thus evince surprise, as
did Cannon, though only short time
before Senator La Toilette exhibited
letters In the senate showing that the
seals had been tempered with and his
, mail read.
Every person who has had trouble
with the department and some who
have not have had experiences which
prove the truth of Jackson's assertion
In regard to opening sealed letters by
postal authorities.
Polo For the Army.
Few provisions in the army bill ex-
cited much more comment than that
relating to transporting horses for polo
tournaments. Polo was defended by
Minority Leader Mann as being the
best training to make officers and men
unafraid. playing shiny among
the boys Is much the same thing. No
boy ever played shiny who did not
profit by it. would have every boy
In the land play shiny. would have
officers Of the army play polo. 1t cures

Adamson's Scripture.
! There was an attempt to cast dis
credit upon the river and harbor bill
because it provided for the improve
ment of certain creeks" The idea of
q creek differs in the several geograph-
ical divisions of the country, but gen.
orally speaking it is considered a
mighty small stream. But the creeks"
of the river and harbor bill seem to
be lending themselves to quite lot of
commerce. During the discussion Ad-
amson of Georgia clinched the creek"
for navigation by pointing out what
THE Scriptures told about St Paul
when he was shipwrecked. AFTER sew
eral days of danger they discovered a
certain creek with shore, into which
they were minded to thrust the Ship"
quoted Adamson as an Endorsement of
the "creek."
Wages In North Dakota.
The senate was discussing bill re-
lating to the hours of labor, a bill
which still further extended the eight
hour system, when Senator McCumber
Of North Dakota said: I'm our state
last fall we were unable to get farm
labor at 81 and even SIS per day. Why?
Because we have enacted laws that in
all other lines of industry limit the
day to eight hours. On the farm the
day is from sixteen to twelve hours"
He thought that further extension of
the eight hour system was an injustice
to the farmer.
