DOLLAR DIPLOMACY.


Mr.. Bryan has at least the faculty Of
clear expression. If any man doubts the
present policy of this government on the
question of dollar diplomacy. it must be
because he has not good working knowl-
edge of the English language. If a man
will make an investment in a foreign
country, let him make it on his own iudg-
ment. Let him put himself on his inquiry
not only a to the investment, but as to
the social, religious. and political con
ditiOns there. If then the investment
looks good to him, let him make it-and
fortune be with him. But let him not ex-
pect the government to back him III 1t.
The nation is not bound to back him up
in it, any more than it is bound to back
him up in his private affairs at home
further than to give him legal protection
which any other citizen may claim.
Time was when no man in this nation
would question the %soundnesS of this
theory, but of late years the nation has
so lied itself up with the private affairs
of its people. has assumed such a patcr-
nal air with regard to investments that
many a man is surprised to know that
i is nc ture function of government to
underwrite his private enterprises.

DOMESTIC SCIENCE.

Domestic science is taught in the
schools of Kansas, especially in some Of
the higher educational institutions. At
the agricultural college seven hundred
girs completed the domestic science course
last week. Eleven hundred women attend
ed the domestic science schools while they
were operated. The schools cost the state
$4,000. Pretty big item. isn't it? Forty
thousand dollars for one item in the cur
riculum of the schools. The Kansas peo-
pie, however. state in this way. Forty
thousand dollars to beat the garbage
can. Stated in that way, we begin to Get
interested. We say, "Oh wei, if it beats
the garbage can to the extent of %40G00
a year, that looks like business" To
which Kansas replies
"As a result Of teaching domestic sci
ence in the schools and If the APPLICATION
of the teaching in The home, we beat the
garbage can out of II ,000.000 asst year.
1t is not easy to say how the Kansas
people arrive at these figures, but if We
discount them fifty per cent We can cas-
lily see that the people are getting a big
return on their investment in domestic
science
Saying this we are not u%nmindfu' Of
the fact that Texas gives some attention
to this branch f learning Here and
Ffroneemitcf- CONGRATULATIONS
there in the larger educational %institu-
tons, there are G. asses in domestic sci
ence. Kansas figures are given 10 show
how that kind of training pays. There
is no Wcman no matter what her station
in life may be, who can afford to be ig
nOrant Of the theory and practice Of dom
este science. in fact the more wealthy
she may be the more she should be train
ed in the management of the household.

ing fourth class postmasters under

While the policy of President Viii
sons administration with regard TO
postmasters has not been fully deter
mined" said the postmaster general
after the cabinet meeting today, Il
have no objections TO saying that the
Taft plan has my approval and in
dorsement. do not think he went far
enough. Postmasters OF the second
and third class also should be placed
under the civil service. and possibly
even those of the first class. 1t would
prevent the employment of politicians
