Well Taken Care Of

Government employees in Washington are
undoubtedly well taken care of. In spite
of the civil service, which every one,
who is inclined to be frank will admit is
more or less of a joke. employment in
the government service is more or less
political. 1t can be safely said that nine
tenths of the government employees got
their jobs through some kind of political
pull. For the service rendered the gov
eminent pays a higher price than any
private corpora tion in existence The or
ganized civil service would probably raise
a howl and throw a fit if the statement
was made that for the service rendered
they are the highest priced labor in the
world. and that no private corporation
monopoly or otherwise-could exist if it
paid its labor in the same proportion of
service rendered that the government

Former Admission Editor
May Land Coveted Gov
eminent Position

Admission. June 22.-(Special. 1.-The
chances for the appointment of James
B. Lloyd, former editor of the Admission
Star, to the position of recorder of. deeds
at Washington, have been considerably
enhanced, his local friends believe by the
ousting of II. l.. johnson, the Atlanta
negro, who was appointed by President
Taft to the position.
Washington dispatches state that Presi-
dent Wilson will name negro democrat
to the position, but 1t is not believed that
another negro can get confirmation in the
Senate, and In that event the place will
probably go to Mr.. Lloyd. who is backed
by Claude kitchens. Congressman Black
mon and other members of the Alabama
delegation, and practically the entire Illi-
nois delegation. While editing a paper at
Lincoln, H.. he called the convention that
resulted In the ousting of Lorimer. Pre-
vious to that he was sergeant-at-arms in
the Senate
Mr. Lloyd has many friends here who
will lend their strength to his cause.
Admission and Calhoun county AUTOMOBILE
lists are swarming into the office of the
county back tax commissioner since it
became known that an agent is here from
the state department to enforce the law
against all delinquents who have failed
to pay the state tax. There are said to
have been over 100 operating in this coun-
ty without tags, and the state inspector
has made a number of cases.

tages in case Americans attack the
town. They want to know if you can't
help"
At Tejeria, the last station before
reaching American lines, O'Shaugh-
Messy saw several Americans who
had been taken off trains. They plead
ed piteously to be carried the remain
ing thirty miles to safety. They told
O'Shaughnessy they had been on a
refugee train which left Mexico City
Thursday morning. Some of the party
had been sent clear back to the capt.
tai. Their train had passed O'Shaugh-
nessy's during the night.
When O'Shaughnessy left the capt.
tai, Huerta had ordered that no more
Americans should be permitted to de-
part or enter the city. This order pre-
vents unprotected Americans in the
small towns from seeking what little
refuge there may be in the capital. 1t
also makes it impossible for every
small town to hold the American civil
lians as hostages.
Huerta ordered that the homes of
all Americans be searched for arms
and Thursday night the American
residents of all hotels were stripped
of arms. The rrotectorate establish

At the station Americans besiege
mitted to accompany the fleeing par
Huerta to escort O'Shaughnessy
from the city; fatty refused.
Before the departure Huerta sent
200 soldiers to the embassy to seize
the 275 rifles and machine guns
which were stored there for the de-
Tense of the American citizens. The
American volunteer guards were pre-
pared to defend their arms, but on
the advice of .O'Shaughnessy they
surrendered the weapons without re-
sistance.
Then began the trip for Vera Cruz,
during which the hearts of every one
in the diplomatic party were to be
touched by the appeals of country
men for aid. At the towns of Orizaba,
Cordova and Jalapa, Americans were
crowded about the stations. They
pleaded with the American charge to
be taken aboard his train. O'Shaugh-
messy was helpless. These standed
Americans had been taken from
trains bound for Vera Cruz.
g At Cordova an American wearing
British flag sneaked to the side of
the train and handed a note to one
of the consulate employees. This. note

BRAVES GUT
 GIANTS LEAD
 IN FLAG RAGE


 New York, Aug. 15.-The rampa.g- ing Boston Braves jumped all over the poor old Giants again yesterday ana rna1treated them in manner that quite distressed the 17,e00 spectators who paid their good money to see the home team win. The defeat cuts down the Giants lead to four and hair games
 The Braves hammered out seven runs of the combined pitching Of Tes- reau and Demaree. while the Giants were collecting three runs, one pr which, a home run in the ninth lnnl1s by Fred Merkle, came after most or the crowd had given up in despaar and left the grounds.
 The Giants were all right except that their pitchers didn't go very well and that they couldn't hit and that they fieIded poorly. Aside from this they looked good.
 Bill James did the pitching for the Braves, and covered himself with glory. Demaree and Tesreaus did a lot of good pitching for the Braves. too. unti1y McGraw called upon Hooks Wiltse of the Old Guard to stem the route. wiltse did we'll in the last two innings and prevented any further scoring
