PosTMAsTERs MUST
BE ON THEIR JOBS.
General BurIeson Has Some Ad.
vaneed Ideas on the Duties. Of
Men Who Dish Out Uncle
Sans Mail Matter.

By Clyde H. Tavenner, Member of
Congress.
Washington, April 26.-If anything
was needed to prove the progressive
ism Of the Wilson administration, it
was the recent order Of Postmaster
General Burleson. respecting candi-
dates to be postmasters.
The order insists that hereafter
men aspiring to be pOstmasters in
small towns must be prepared to give
all their time to the work. The de-
partment will no longer permit its
employees to regard the postmasters
office as a side issue for some other
business.
Since the people contribute the
money to pay the salary, the people
have the right to expect that the
postmaster himself is earning it, in
stead of letting his subordinate do
all the work.
Mr.. Burleson shrewdly suspects
that if the postmasters devote their
entire business time to their work
there will be need for fewer subor
dinates, and thus great economy
will be effected.
Every republican administration
for the past 16 years has regarded
postoffices as legitimate game for po
litical job hunters. Mckinley post
masters were thrown out to make
room for Roosevelt postmasters, ant
so on. The republican factions tough
themselves for the spoils.
But how different the actions o
the democrats. Never before in OH
history have the qualifications of car
didates for postoffice jobs been e1
amined with such care.
And now comes the order tina
candidates must actually have som
qualifications, other than politics
ones. before they can secure appoint
, ment. ...'t! .I.l. ...i-.
: For sixteen years under republica
; rule the small town postoffice ha

ed States are filled with men VIII

do the work.
Mr.. Burleson has informed tn
democratic applicants that this pra,
tice must cease. Only efficient mel
and men who will give complete a
tention to their postoffice duties, wi
be appointed. Somehow this doesn
sound like the spoils system againl
which the republicans were warnin
the country last fall.
l would like to predict that IL

Toxic, Japan.-The news that the
California alien land Dill had been
signed by Governor Johnson was re.
ceived here with regret although it
had been discounted in official and
non-olicial circles. The efforts of the
Japanese government are conccntrat-
'd at present to pacifying public OPP
ihion, but tho task is regarded as
moro difficult than at the time of the
California school controversy u year
ago.
