Gratis, who pointed out that the post
masters put under the civil service by
President Taft were nearly all repub-
Leans. Instead of following the wishes
OF the spoilsmen, the president, acting

fourth class postmasters would have
to undergo a civil service exarlina-
ton. These examinations are now be-
ing conducted In some of the eastern
states.
Scramble for Postoffices.
There has been no 1etup in the de-
mand that first class postmasters be
replaced with democrats Immediately.
The president will not permit this to
be done. His orders are that unless it
can be shown that a republican post
master is feglecting his duty or is in
efficient, he must be permitted to serve
out the term for which he was ap-
pointed.
Some of the democratic legislators
who have gone to the White House
within recent weeks have tried to
make it appear that unless republicans
now serving as rural mail carriers are
displaced by democrats. the country
will soon be in a bad way. One public
man who is in position to know the
presidents mind with respect to this
and kindred subjects is authority for
the statement that such complaints
greatly amuse the chief executive. The
rural mail carriers are. of course, I'M
der the civil service, and the admins
~tration has no thought of disturbing
them.
Bigger Things to Do.
It will readily be seen that so far as
patronage is concerned the president
has certainly had his way. 1t does
seem to be true. too. that the demo-
cratic statesmen n politicians have
a good deal broader view of the SUBJ
4 ject than they had prior to March A.
There is really very little open 'tkick-
ing against the presidents course.
1t is regarded as significant that
senators and Representatives who gc
hack home these days to give litter
views for local consumption invariably
relate that this administration has
bigger things than patronage to deal
with: that the boys who expected

has a large undertaking before him

large number of democratic statesmen
have got the presidents viewpoint and

TIPS From Texas.

Dallas News: Cur idea of a model
wife is a tidy lady who can broil a
81 beefsteak into a SO confection.
1t is July now, and if the June bride
groom is beginning to finch when the
June bride asks for car fare she may
know that the honeymoon Is over.
The reason a man who marries for
money never get a cross word from
his wife is because the polar bears are
carrying palm leaf fans this summer.
Considering the amazing number of
slim widows in perfect health, if is not
surprising that there appears to have
been almost a total eclipse Of the old
fashioned gloomist who declared that
the female sex was killing itself with
tight lacing.

The visitors were first told thai
there were thirty students and a few

'"The students knew hardly a word

But that Is a modern as well as an
ancient failing.
After all, life is far more comfort
able now than it was in the good old
days. Every one has a better chance
for happiness. But the writer Of his
tories and historical novels will never
give in.

Good Advice to Immigrants.

The Messages to New Corners to the
United States, prepared by the North
American Civic League for Immi-
grants, contain a lot of sound advice
with regard to respecting the law and
preserving order. These leafiets, which
are printed in a very large number OF
languages, contain not only a lot of
elementary information about Ameri-
can law, but some mighty sound adj
vice. For instance, Talk Is better
than blows. reasoning than ASSAULT;
orderly conduct on the part Of those
who believe themselves to be wronged
secures an opportunity to tell ones
story, ask for desired reforms and give
reasons why they should be granted.
To hear what the other side says and
believes secures the respect and some
times the sympathy of the public, and
secures the good will and protection
of the authorities

Hitchcock's Troubles.

Sioux Falls Argus-Leader: Senator
Hitchcock of Nebraska is having a
hard time of it to prove himself a
bigger man han his party. He bolted
the democratic caucus because it would
not accept his tobacco schedule, but
began to weaken when he heard from
the folks back home. The Nebraska
senator is o. looking for a convenient
rear door leading back into the caucus
room. His act in boiling the caucus
vas rather impulsive for one who re-
CARDS himself as a statesman.

THE MILL STREAM

Beside the stream the old mill stands;
Beside the mill the miller lies
IT'S crumblihg mill and idle hands, E"E--
For time has sundered former ties.
The stream alone it's youth has kept, '.~ a.
Scarce older by one feeting day
Tho to its verge the years have crept
And turned the green to silver gray.
The sycamore has ceased to bloom,
It's shattered trunk in twain is cleft;
White as the nniller's marble tomb
1t stands to witness what is left.
So much of all 1 love is gone! ~
Yet, there is left enough to show
How little Of our youth lives on
or Surviving winters storm and snow. -
Here life is gone; here hearts are cold
And death and ruin round are cast,
But love regns even as of old
49, And memory revives the past
With more than ghosts of vanished forms
The heart repeoples scenes like this;
These ruins are not such as storms
Spread DER the murky Wilderness:
For life and love were mingled here, s
Things temporal with things divine -
And eyes that dropped for me the tear,
And hopes that rose and sank with mine.
Here have been mingled kindred creeds;
Here faults and fai1ings have been spared:
Here have been succored many needs, K at'
Here has good fortune oft been shared.
Here, now the heart alone is still
But not, oh not the love it bore
I see through tears the fallen mill
And the gray, barren shore,
But even as the sparkling stream
Has met, through years, so little change,
SO in my heart of hearts 1 dream
OF memories time can not estrange.

Portland Journal: The process OF
the Caminetti-McNabb episode con-
tinues.
Never before were SO many gentle
men shocked at a white slave case,
Never before were so nan alleged
V%irtuous persons laundering in the
index. More apostles of virtue are on
dress parade now than at any time in
a century. From the racket raised,
one would think there never was a
white slave case before. Gentlemen
are holding UP their hands in horror
and many Of them are gentlemen who
have probably been helping t per-
petuate vice, who have been extract
ing profits from vice and have helped
to furnish recruits for vice.
Young Caminetti is vile. No post
ponement of his case should have
been requested by the secretary Of
labor. Attorney General McReynolds
ought not to have postponed the cases
at the request of the secretary OF
labor. The whole incident has been
laundering.
But they are all whooping it up now,
whooping it up as though Young Cam
inettt will be thoroughly prosecuted,
and he ought to be. But for the itch
of some gentlemen for office and but
for their desire to do something by
which to exploit themselves for Of
flee, he could have been tried. CON
Victed and punished and the country
been spared the hideous details of his
crime.
The main feature of the whole hull
abaloo is the willingness of the Nc
nabs and others to capitalize the nasty
facts and a white slave case as a
means Of getting official position.
Simplifying Suicide.
Brooklyn Times: AS a result of
structural popularity the Manhattan
bridge bids fair to achieve an unenvi-
able reputation through the opportun-
ity which the new big span offers NOR
bid persons intent on self -de%struction.
An unknown man leaped off the river
arch last week, and. while the police
and others saw him in the act, they
could do nothing to save him.
The Manhattan bridge is so built that
the vehicular roadway is in the middle
while the footpaths are on the outside
A metal rail, breast high, is erected
along the edge of either walk. Even
children are able to climb over this
and no grown person would experience
the least difficulty in scaling it. Once
over the rail, there is an uninterrupt-
ed drop to the surface OF the river.
On other big bridges the footpaths
are more carefully safeguarded. Ere
quently the newspapers report at
tempts at self-destruction baked by
the police before the potential suicide
leaves the span. Commissioner o.
keeffe is an alert and efficient execu-
tive with a competent corps of engin-
GERS, and we believe If he will person
ally look into this unusual condition
on his pet span, a practical remedy
Will be applied before the bridge beings
to carry its capacity crowds.
