Many people will regret the
fact that O. w. Allen has been
superseded as chief of police.
even though they are aware
that his successor is a good man
in every respect. and fully cap
able of conducting the office as
it should be conducted. Mr..
Allen has made a good public
servant, and no complaint has
been heard of his manner of con-
ducting the office of chief. The
moral conditions of the city have
never been in more salts
factory condition than during
his regime, and he can feel well
pleased with the record he has
established. Mr.. John Poff. his
successor. is also a man in
whom all can repose confidence.
He is a ploneer resident of
st. Johns. and is we'll liked and
respected by all. Here's hoping
that he will make d splendid sue
cess of the office. and there is
no reason to doubt that such will
not prove to be the case.

The old body of city officials
have been deposed and "A new
set installed. Mayor Bredeson.
who is replaced by DIR. A. w.
Vincent. has made a most cap
able official. faithful and careful.
and during his campaign for re-
election not one act could be
pointed out where he had failed
or been remiss in his duties.
Every one had a good word TO
say concerning his conductance
of the office. He has been fair.
honest and courageous in all
affairs connected with the office.
and can retire TO private life
well satisfied with the record he
has made.
Aldermen Martin. Wright and
Wilcox, who also retire TO pri-
vate life. have left records be-
hind them that they may feel
proud of. +. A. Rice has made
the best city recorder the city
ever had. He was obliging.

proves equal to his predecessor
the people Of st. Johns will be

city treasurer measured up TO
the fullest extent in all that go
to make a good treasurer. being
careful, accurate and systemat-
ical.
As TO the old officials who have
been retained in office. the fact
that they have been reelected is
satisfactory evidence that the
public was fully satisfied with
the records they have made.

There is much business from

long since dispelled from his
mind the uncertainty of news
paper advertising as a business
getter, and anticipates his adj
vertising wants for long periods
ahead by contracting space i'm
the newspapers. He considers
his advertising as fixed a
change as his rent or the cost
of goods which he sells, realiz-
ing that if he quits advertising
he had Just as we'll quit
business. This is the adver-
tieing age. and its principles
are as applicable in the small
town or city suburb as it is in
the greater cities.
Located as st. Johns is at the
portals of large city, there is
a,double incentive why the local
merchants should reach out and
get this trade which at present.

1t may be possible that Huerta' S
disinclination to salute the Ameri-
can flag was actuated more by the
necessity of economy rather than
a feeling of hostility. The powder
required to fire a salute of 2I guns
would be sufficient to put company
of rebels out of commission. and
powder is a mighty scarce article
in Mexico at present. To prevent
a recurrence of this embarrassing
incident it would be we'll for Uncle
sam to present the Greasers with a
keg or two OF powder to be used
for saluling purposes only.

A BLO0MER SEASON.
They Replace the Psttieoat on the
Smart Woman's Toilet.

1t seems an established fact now
that the boomer is going to replace
the pettiroat this season. With the
ultra narrow skirts which are in vogue
even one petticoat is utterly superfu-
Gus. and any woman will find that
there is nothing really any more CON-
Portable to Wear than the long bloom
ers of softest crepe de chine. messaline
or liberty silk. These three materials
mentioned so we'll with the afternoon
gown. while for evening wear much
more diaphanous ones of chiffon or
mousseline are stylish.
The reign OF the petticoat has been
long and undiSputed one, and it is
not likely that it will allow itself to
be eclipsed without some sign Of
struggle. 1t isn't so many years ago
that four and five petticoats were
worn. all Of them sturdy and substan.
tial and warranted to wear Mt least Il
couple Of seasons.
Then later came the vogue Of the
tatteta skirt. the stiff taffeta which
could be heard block away and
which was always judged, in fact. by
the amount of noise that it made. This
did not last so long-it was too in
artistic. Afterward came the long.
silky affair which chung under the mar
row outside skirt and which even now
has not relinquished its hold on the
affections Of part of the feminine
public. This is the rival now Of the
hlOOmer.
Time will tell Just how complete the
victory Of the boomers is. There are
those who claim that by next fall ev.
cry one will be wearin. them. There
are those. on the other hand. that de-
clare that no such extreme style can
hold publ: favor for any length OF
time.

Mrs. Thomas J. Walsh, wife of the
senator from Montana. is supporting
a movement which deserves to be very
popular. 1t is known as the ''see Amer
lea first" movement, and the name is
self explanatory. The idea occurred
to Mrs. Walsh when Secretary Lane
OF the department of the interior re-
Gently named one of the most beauti-
full lakes in Glacier National park in
honor Of the wife of President Wilson.
This beautiful lake lies in the bowl of
the mountains among the snow peaks
where the continental divide runs
through the famous park. 1t is 5.976
feet above sea level and among scenery
unsurpassed in the world. There are
several hundred of these mountain
lakes in Glacier park, and Mrs. Walsh
is anxious that they should be named
in honor Of famous living American
women.
Mrs. Walsh Is interesting women's
clubs and individual women in the
campaign. American women should
know more about the scenery Of Amer
lea than they do. The movement may
interest them in seeing America thor.
oughly before hurrying abroad to see
landscapes that are inferior and en-
during discomforts and Inconvenience
they would not tolerate at home. Pos
sibly a better knowledge of their own
country will enable them to appreciate
its greatness and make them more pa
triotic citizens. There is absolutely no
politics. suffrage or other special bias
to the movement. The object is pri-
narily to honor distinguished Ameri-
can women by giving their names to
beauty spots in the national parks.
