CONGRESS AND NATIONAL
PARKS.

The cutting of the Mesa Verde Ma
tional park appropriation from $16,-
900 to 10000, is a sample of the
strange treatment congress is accord
ing the national parks of the country.
This makes it certain that the high
way from Mancos to the cliff dwell
ings cannot be completed this year,
and tourists who wish to view the only
archaeological park in the world will
have to make the journey from Man
cos by wagon and saddle horse. Ow-
ing to the difficulty of getting into
the park, not more than three or four
hundred tourists visit this archaeo-
logical wonderland in the course of a
season, whereas if the projected high
way were only completed the number
of visitors would be ten times as
great.
The highway from Mancos has been
built to the slopes of the Mesa Verde.
A few thousand dollars will finish The
road to the cliff dwellings and give
southwestern Colorado one of tho most
magnificent scenic highways in the
world, but the road has been left three
or four years in its p:csent unfinished
state.
1t is difficult to see the economy
in setting aside national park Ike
the Mesa Verde, and going to great
expense to restore the principal cliff
ruins, only to keep the public away
by refusing to construct a good road
A little Of the right sort of work at
Washington ought to convince con-
gress Of the folly of such a course of
procedure. The Mesa Verde is one
of the most wonderful of Uncle Sans
national parks, yet it is one of the
least visited, solely on account of bad
roads and poor accommodations at
the park itself.
The idea in setting national parks
aside was to popularize them as far
as possible, and acquaint the people
of the United States with the won
ders of their own country. Yet the
same policy Of niggardliness prevails
in the administration of every ma
tional park, and it is a constant fight
to get even the smallest appropria-
tion for the construction or better
ment of roads.
Either the government should turn
such parks over to the states and let
them control the spots of scenic in
terest, or the present penny wise and
pound foolish policy in regard to main
tenance should be abandoned.-Den-
yer Republican.

JUDGMENT AT LEAST.

To Howard Clarke Hollister, hold
over judge OF the United States dis
trict court for southern Ohio, falls
the honor of making the first officia!
response to the will of the people that
was expressed in the election of Wood
row Wilson.
Judge Hollister accepts the idea of
personal guilt. In the case of the
men involved in the crimes of the
cash register trust who were convicted
in his court in violation of the anti
trust law, they all go to Jail, their
multimillionaire leader at the head of
them, for terms of one year or nine
months.
There are twenty convicts m
der sentence in the cash register pi-
racy and two of them are lawyers.
The enforcement of personal guilt in
these matters will always fall short
if it does not embrace the false coun-
sellors who for big fees undertake to
guide their clients through crime to
power and riches.-New York World.

EDUCATIONAL NOTES.

Nearly s1,OO0,0O0 is now on deposit

throughout the United States.
Indiana boys failed in school more
frequently than girls, according to a
recent investigation of fourteen Indi-
ana cities by Superintendent Arthur
Deamer of La Porte. The percentage
of failures was 14.6 for the boys and
10.4 for the girls.
The government of Uruguay has en-
gagged an agricultural expert from

cultural school in the republic.
A frst-year course in vocational

''The public is not to be blamed if
it gets an exaggerated idea of the
situation in Mexico City. Nor are
the newspapers to be blamed if their
headlines have contributed to the i'm
preston that the lives of Americans
are in danger. 1t is. of course, a
very dramatic thing for two hostile
forces in the heart of populous
with machine guns and field pieces,
and yet, we are assured by repeated
private kilograms from the scene of
hostilities that Americans are in no
danger so long as they keep out of
the zone of fire. The civil war below
the Rio Grande is not directed at
Americans. The Americans, now in
Mexico, remained there knowing that
this trouble was to come. They did
not have to stay to witness the fight
ing just as if it was an exhibition in
the bull ring. And if any damage
is done, the republic of Mexico will
have to foot the bills when the claims
are presented. Mediation is better
than intervention and Mr.. John Bar
rett has hit the nail on the head. He
knows his Latin America and his
words, if needed, will clear the air
from the Canadian boundary to Cape
Horn. Certainly mediation before in
tervention-much before"

That they will suffer big loss in
revenue if the ruling regarding new
rates is enforced, is the claim made
by the five leading express companies
of this country in statement filed
with the interstate commerce commits
sion at Washington. Some time ago
the commission ordered reduction in
rates and changes in rules, regulations
and practices of the express compa-
nies. The change in rates was not
made effective at once. In order to
ascertain just how the change would
affect the express companies the COM
mission decided on Oct. 23, 1912, as
the date on which the receipts should
be reported to the commission and the
difference noted. According to the
figures filed with the commission last
week, the express companies collect
ed $295,664 on interstate business that
day. The ruling of the commission
would reduce this revenue by $74,4l6.
A date will be fixed by the commits
sicn when the companies may pres mt
arguments against the decrease in
rates.

One of the nerviest propositions
ever made to the government was the
request of manufacturers of slot ma
chimes that Secretary of the Treasury
MacVeagh refuse to issue the new
f-cent pieces because they would not
fit in the slot machines, rightly says
the Star-Journal. Issue of the new
coins was delayed until the protest
could be heard, but when the mat
ter was inquired into it was found
that only one manufacturer would
suffer. Naturally Ii. expected that
the government should change the size
of the coins and go to the expense of
preparing new dies and making ar
rangements so that the coins would
correspond to what the slot machine
manufacturer regarded as the right
size. Secretary MacVeagh mas brush
ed aside the objections and the new
niclsels will be placed in circulation
at once.

The butter served in hotels costs

is an easily proved statement, for
with tutter costing 40 cents or more
a pound each pat of butter served
costs the hotel at least / 1-2 cents.
Coffee generally averages twenty ours

price in fifty years, more than 80
cents, and most of them not over 81

lower figure. With the good profit
