urday holiday for the employees in
creases their value during the rest of
the week.
This is an extension of the principle.
long recognized in the business world,
that a two weeks vacation is an in
vestment in the vigor of employees,
which pays generous dividends in
working efficiency.
For the coming weekend. including
Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, num-
bers of city employees have the prom
Use of the additional half day, and
there is the hint that those Of certain
Federal departments will enjoy the
same. The great boon of this is that
three days enable the average toiler
to sit under his own gourd for space
long enough to get rested, or to go
far enough away to forget his per-
plexities and urgencies. Furthermore,
three days together provide more rest
than three days separated.
In the final analysis a vacation is
not what you are doing. 1t is what
you are not doing.

Single Tax and Alley Property.

1t is probable that the alley problem
will be approached in Congress from
new angle. There is proposition
under consideration which provides
for exempting from taxation all i'm
provements upon any property to the
amount of $500.
Such an exemption would include
practically all alley property and by
reducing the cost of maintenance
should reduce rents or should result
in the erection of a better class of
alley homes. As the amount of revenue
lost by the exemptions would have to
be made up by an increased burden
upon every square foot of land in the
District, there is an altruistic phase to
the proposition, inasmuch as its only
benehciaries are the poor. There is,
however, a plausibility about the sug-
gestion which is attractive, and which
will be difficult to overcome.
1t must not be overlooked, however,
that the scheme, should it be enacted
into law, will be the opening wedge for
the introduction here of the single tax
system which Henry George, jr., would
like to establish in the District. There
are at least four or five members of
the District Committee who are IA
vorably inclined toward the single tax
idea, and this gives significance to the
proposed solution of the alley problem.
1t may be that in the effort to i'm
prove the condition of the population
in the alleys Congress will be drawn
into debate upon the merits and de-
merits of the single tax, an agitation
which the upholders of the theory
would undoubtedly welcome The fight |
to change the system of taxation in
the District is impending, and Wash
ington taxpayers might as we'll take |
cognizance of the fact.

The Case Of Col. Carrington.

The Maryland Progressives have ere
called" their State chairman, Col. Car
rington. The Progressive press bu-
reau says SO. We are constrained TO
believe that the recall operation was
conducted SO quietly as to escape the
attention of Col. Darlington himself.
He resigned the State Craftsmanship of
his party last week, and in his letter of
resignation made no mention OF hav-
ing been recalled. His grounds for re-
signing were that the continuance Of
the division among the Maryland Re-
publicans meant prolonged Democratic
ascendency in the State, with all that
this would imply.
From the Progressive press bureaus
statement it would appear that Col.
Darlington was deposed by the State
committee under call of the advisory
committee. He had refused to issue
the call for the meeting and his func-
tons were usurped by the advisory
committee. Can his disposition be en-
titled ''recall?" Where were the peo-
pie? Why were they not consulted? If
Charles J. Bonaparte engineered the
downfall of Col. Darlington, wherein
did the operation differ from the boss
ism" which the Progressives denounce?
1t does seem to make a great differ
ence whose party is bossed.

Our Flag Abroad.

While the Manitoba provincial troops
were marching through Winnipeg yes
terday an American appeared on the
curb waving an American flag and
shouting, ''Hurrah for the American
Eagle"
After the fight it was discovered
that the Stars and Stripes had been
torn and that the American had dis
appeared. 1t is unfortunate that he
was not detained. Then he could have
been questioned as to his reason for
making so useless an exhibition of his
country's flag and OF himself.
No true American relishes the
thought OF the national colors being
dragged in the mire. but the ethics of
fag-waving cannot be lightly violated.
All the lessons and the logic of friend
ly international intercourse forbids the
Haunting of foreign flag in any coun-
try. The flag is an emblem of SOW
ereignty. 1t may rightfully float over
embassies. legations, consulateS. and
ships in foreign lands and waters
Elsewhere its display is a matter Of
courtesy When distinguished foreign
ers are entertained here the banquet
hall is adorned with the flags of his
country. Thus we strive to make him
feel at home
But an American abuses the hospi-
tality of another country when he
iaunts his flag unnecessarily, as the in
iividual at Winnipeg appears to have
done.
The incident gives no just cause to
question the friendship of Western
Canada for the United States. The
Fourth of July is celebrated in West
ern Canada with quite as much spirit
as Dominion Day. In fact, since Do
minion Day falls on July 1, it is the
custom in places like Winnipeg, Cal
gary, Edmonton, and Moose Jaw to
carry the celebration from July I
through to July 5. The American
flag is accorded every honor on such
occasions and the Americans resident in
Canada demonstrate their respect and
affection for the Union Jack to which
many OF them have transferred their
allegiance
Unfortunately, fool flag incidents"
do occur on both sides of the line, but
happily they are growing sensibly
fewer as the years go by.

OF freedom new. he called the nation

Peace reigns today at Gettysburg, and
former foes clasp hands.
Old jealousies have vanished, the scars
of war are healed:
The mystic chords of memory" have
banlshed fear and hate,
The Blue and Gray are brothers on this
storied battlefield
Today We face face new issues new
slaveries and wrongs,
We hear the cry of labor for freedom
and for light.

FIGHTING EXTENDS

Servian and Bulgarian and Greek and
Bulgarian troops has now extended over
an area Of nearly 500 square miles in

defeats. but claims that the enemy was
responsible for opening hostilities.
The Greeks have driven back the Bull

Germany's Gold Peril.

Germany is facing a gold peril The
recent international troubles, starting
with Morocco, have caused nervous
public to hoard up their savings in
their houses, and the money market
consequently has been brought to a
condition that endangers the oountry's
industrial welfare.
Various means have been devised to
meet them The banks are forced to
keep larger liquid" reserves, and be-
sides various admonitions and cautions
the directorate OF the Reichsbank has
attempted to educate the people to-
ward payment without cash" or, at
least, without gold. Moreover, the
large industrial works are adopting
practice of paying the weekly wages in
small notes, while efforts have been
made to popularize the system of post
office checks.
These sums will gradually be re-
stored to the banks as the political
clouds are dispersed; yet it is not ex-
pected that their return will ease the
money market. Though it appears
paradoxical, many believe that the in
dustrial boom, which two years have
failed to kill, will be jeopardized by
peace. On the other hand, there are
those who believe that by the levying
of the I,ooo,ooo,ooo marks military
contribution, a vast dead capital will
suddenly be made alive, and through
innumerable channels will instill its
life into the varied native industries.

PONDEROUS PERSONAGES
CICERO
ny GEORGE FITCH,
Author of "At Good Old Siwash."

Marcus Tuilius Cicero was the greatest
orator who ever rose before Roman
audience to say a few words extending
from $50 to II p. m. on the tariff. He
was the idol of the Roman populace
for many years, but IL he were alive
today he could not be elected to the
once of fourth assistant poundmaster
This is because too many American
voters have been compelled to read
Cicero's grafton in the original Latin
when they preferred to go fishing.
Cicero was born b. c. los, of prom
inent parents. He was popular in his
home town and the boy who was chum-
my enough with Tully Cicero to play
marbles or eaten catfish in the Tiber
with him was much envied.
Cicero studied law and went to war
after the fashion of the times and finally
went into politics. At that time Sulla
was dictator and controlled the ere
dentials committees in all the conven-
tons Cicero published a few brief re-
marks about boss rule and in conse-
quence retired from Italy for his health.
For several years Cicero hung around
Greece, taking elocution lessons. and
when Sulla passed under the steam
roller he began to pick up an Office now
and then. He became quaestor. aedile.
and praetor. and in s. he went after
the consulship. Catiline had the demo-
cratic party in his vest party at that
time. so Cicero Joined the Optimates and
burned up Catiline in a series Of stump
speeches which have been famous ever
since. This. together with several little
in Catiline's administra-
ton. put him on the hummer and Cicero
had a walkaway. However. Pompey
formed a triumvirate with Caesar and
Cras sius and the three dictated every
appointment in the administration for
several years. This compelled Cicero to
retire for his health once more and for
many years he spent his time sidestep-
ping popular issues and trying to figure
out a platform on which he would be

Some of the men want the ladies' to
remove their hats in church. Some OF
the women object. we have tnougnI
deeply upon this matter and here is a
suggestion: Separate the hat-wearing
ladies. That is. let there be a space re-
served in some good part OF the cnurcn
for the ladies who do not want TO take
on their flower gardens. Seat these
women together. The particular place
will soon be SO well known that the
ladies who wish to wear their hats will
just naturally turn in there. And the
men will become familiar with the re-
served section and will Just naturally
turn in somewhere else, and thus nar-
mony will prevail and all can see the
