Beauties of the Recall.

Out in California the recall ma
chinery has been set in motion to re-
move woman superintendent of
schools from the office she has held
for IL years. The county board of
education, of which she is ex-officio
secretary, revoked the teachers GER
tificate of a high school principal
charged with immoral conduct where
upon he and his friends appear to have
secured the needed signatures to re-
call petition.
Presumably the woman was capable
and conscientious or she would not
have been kept in office so long. Prob
ably the principal was in fault or the
county board would not have deprived
him of his school In any event, re-
Eenge would seem to be the motive.
since to recall her will not reinstate
him, and If he had a case that would
endure the light of day he could ap-
peal for justice to the courts.
Happily we of this state are spared
as yet this grotesque political device
which would be more often used to
club honesty out of Office than to re-
tire an unworthy incumbent. What a
campaign of defamation we should be
engaged in now if the Sulzer case
were to be decided by popular vote.
Tammany would be relentless unit
to cast him out; partisans hostile to
the organization would be fierce to
keep him in; the yellow journals would
scream, stumpers would shout them
selves hoarse and opposition rooters
would brand them as infamous ma
ligners, and not one citizen in $1,000
would vote with such personal knowl-
edge of the evidence as made him GER
tain that he was voting right.-Ro-
chester Post-Express.

Inconsistent Policies.

In respect to tariff revision the pres
ent administration is much in favor
of wider and freer foreign trade. 1t
stands for lower duties and more Inn
ports. 1t means to cultivate interna-
tional business.
But in regard to protecting Ameri-
can interests in foreign countries the
attitude of the president and his adj
visers is entirely different. In mat
tiers which concern the safety of
Americans and their property in other
lands, the administration is discour-
aging to the activities and enterprises
of its citizens. outside of their own
country.
The stand taken by President VIII
son is a warning to citizens of the
United States that if they engage IN
any business in a foreign country, no
matter what treaty guarantees seem
to shelter them, they must take care
of themselves in time of danger.
They are practically notified that their
government will do little to guard
them and less to discourage similar
attacks upon other Americans, under
like circumstances.

NEED TARIFF BOARD
Proper Revision Must Be Work of
Experts
President Taft's Idea Is Now Approved
by All Who Have Considered the
Work of the Present Democratic
Administration.

1t is one of the extraordinary facts
that a great tariff bill, with its hum
dreds of pages and its thousands OF
items, affecting every detail of busf-
ness and ultimately reaching every
thing used by the individual, is a com
plete mystery to more than nine-tenths
of the people. 1t is thrown together in
haste by men who are not economists
or scientists and it is not read even
by half the members of congress
But the misplaced commas and the
wrong spelling and the other errors
are just the sort of trifies that might
make an enormous difference when it
all becomes the law of the land. An
error even more serious runs through
the measure. 1t is the letting in free
of certain manufactured products
when duty is imposed on the raw ma
terials from which the manufactured
products are made. This is the glaring
inconsistency of the measure.
Every day the fact is more apparent
that the business of tariff making
should be put in the hands of experts.
Under the Taft administration a tariff
board was created to gather correct in
formation on the subject. The Demo
Gratis killed this board by failing to
provide funds for it's continuance In
the making of the present bill the
Democratic leaders have repeatedly
confessed to the inadequacy of the in
formation on which they had to pro-
coed. The results are shown. in the
bill. 1t is full of common errors and of
absurd contradictions, and the long de-
lay is due to the making of correc-
tons.

with about a thousand. For days they
struggled on. suffering intensely for
lack of food, for the Spaniards and
Indians had destroyed the villages and
crops along the way. At one point
they found number of leathern bags,

them. At another a few sacks of

of wine were discovered in cave.
On the sixth day after leaving Cruces
ascending a high mountain, they dis
covered the South sea. This happy
sight, as if it were the end of their

them" Then they came to a vale,
where they found plenty of cattle, and
their period of starvation came to an
end with monstrous feast. Cutting
the flesh into convenient pieces or
gobbets, they threw them into the fire
and, half carbonaded or roasted, they
devoured them, with incredible haste
and appetite; such was their hunger,
as they more resembled cannibals than
Europeans; the blood many times rum

gan the battle, but their horse were
useless, owing to the softness of the
ground. The foot were held in check
by the fire of the pirates, SO the wild
bulls were driven forward but, fright
ened by the noise of the conflict, the

THE WEEK IN KANSAS
A RESUME OF INTERESTING oc-
cURRENcES FROM ALL
PARTS OF STATE
WILL HELP MAKE THE PONDS
County Engineers Required by Law to
Make Surveys and Furnish Speci-
Observation-Disclosures Experts
Also to Help.

Every Kansas county surveyor In
going to have a part in the pond build
ing week which Governor Hodges is
working for this fall The governor
has been studying on the plans for the
pond building and getting the states
engineers busy in working out details.
He found an old law that requires the
counties to furnish the services of the
engineers free of charge when
farmer wants to build pond to store
the storm waters. The law makes q
specific requirement that whenever
any Kansas farmer wants to build q
reservoir or a dam to store the sur
plus rain and snow water that the
county engineer must make the neces-
sary surveys and furnish the detailed
plans and specifications for doing the
work. That must be done at county
expense.
The Kansas legislature has made
many enactments to encourage the
building of ponds and reservoirs for
storing the rain and snow water that
goes to waste every year. In 1911 it
passed a law that 800 is to be taken
from the assessed value of all farm
lands containing storm water reser-
voirs which hold not less water than
would cover one acre of level ground
one foot deep. If the pond held 4-acre
feet of water the reduction of the
assessed value was to be 5000 fer each
pond, if the dam was of earth, and
$500 if of stone, concrete or brick.
The governor will have about fifty
highway and drainage engineers from
the agricultural college and university
at work helping the farmers build
ponds to store the surplus water.

That the people of the United States

"Morgan's Tower" Old Panama.
the city. and though the defense was
desperate, many of the pirates being
killed, Panama fell within three hours.
What Morgan did to the devoted in
habitants in the effort to find all their
hidden treasure is too horrible to re-
late. Soon after the capture of the
city fire broke out in many quarters,
and Esquemeling says the confagra-
ton was started by Morgan, though
he laid the blame on the Spaniards.
Anyway, as the houses were almost
all built of cedar, the entire city was
soon consumed by flames. Some three
weeks later Captain Morgan departed
from Panama, or rather from the place
where the city of Panama, stood; of
the spoils whereof he carried away
with him IFS beasts of carriage laden
with silver, gold and other precious
things, besides about six hundred prfs-
oners, men, women, children and
slaves
OF old Panama naught remains but
the ruins of the cathedral, the tower
of st. Stanislaus' church and the frag-
ments of a few other stone and brick
structures. For more than two CEN
lies they have been buried in the
jungle, but are now being brought to
view by the efforts of the Panama
government, which is having the un-
dergrowth cleared away from the
ruins.
The visitor to the isthmus should
not fail to make the trip down the
Chagres from Gatun to the sea, re-
versing Morgan's route The scenery
along the river is beautiful, and the
great stretch of ocean beach-clean,
hard, green and purple sand over
which immense breakers rolls
ideal for bathing
The massive walls of Fort San Lor-
emo still stand on the hill at the
mouth of the Chagres, and the heaps
of cannon balls left by the Spaniards
are yet there In the dungeons of
the castle are piles of rusted irons
the letters which they hoped to fasten
on the bodies and limbs of Morgan
and his buccaneers.
