German Officer Says
Russ Resistance Has
Not Yet Been Broken

AMSTERDAM. via London, June I2-
Col. Richard Gaedke, retired. one of
the best known German military
writer's, in an article in the Vorwaerts
warns against overestimating the Ger
man successes In the east. He argues
that the power and resistance OF
modern armies is much greater than
formerly. and declares there has been
only one real victory in the east
namely Gen. Won Hindenburg's feat
near Tannenberg, and that became
finally only of local Importance. while the
Germans continual blows have not yet
succeeded in breaking the Russian re-
sistance.
''Przemysl may have had only the
value of a rear guard, he continues,
for the Russians intended to impede
the advance of the Austro-German CEN
ter, and this task the fortress full
filled without too great sacrifices"
Col Gaedke arrived at the conclusion
that in Galicia in a reasonable time a
great. but not nnal decision. may be
expected.

JUSTICE STAFFORD RULES
ON CIVIL SERVICE ISSUE
Sustains Secretary Lanes Contention
Against Arant Reinstate-
ment Claim.

The expression classified civil serv-
ice of the United States." as used by
Congress in the act of August "a, 1912.
prohibiting removals without written
charges, does not include persons ap-
pointed to government positions with
out examination, competitive or 9TH
erwise, according to a decision of JUS
ttce Stafford of the District Supreme
Court.
The court, accordingly. overruled a
demurrer of William F. Arant, former
superintendent of the Crater Lake Ma
tional Park, in Oregon. to the answer
Of Secretary Lane to a mandamus pro-
ceeding brought a few weeks ago by
Mr. Arant to secure his reinstatement
Mr. Arant claimed to be within the
classified civil service, and invoked the
act of August "a, 1912, to secure his
reinstatement.
Not Purpose Of Congress.
Secretary Lane, in his answer, set up
the contention that even though the
civil service commission mad defined
the expression used by Congress to in
clude excepted POSITIONS such as su-
perintendent of a national park. the
real purpose of Congress was not to
include such positions.
The court accepted the view of the
Secretary and dismissed the petition
for mandamus.
Through Attorney H. Prescott Galley
an appeal was noted by Mr.. Arant.
Secretary Lane was represented by
Solicitor West and Assistant Attorney
Wright.

THINGS THAT NEVER DIE
Charles Dickens.

The pure, the bright. the beautiful
That stirred our hearts in youth,
The impulses to wordless prayer,
The streams of love and truth;
The longing after something lost,
The spirits yearning cry.
The striving after better hopes
These things can never die.
The timid hand stretched forth to aid
A brother in his need;
A kindly word In grief's dark hour
That proves friend indeed;
The plea for mercy softly breathed,
When Justice threatens high,
The sorrow of a contrite heart
These things shall never die.
Let nothing pass, for every hand
Must find some work to do;
Lose not a chance to waken love-
Be firm and just and true;
So shall q light that cannot fade
Beam on thee from on high,
And angel voices say to thee
"rhese things shall never die"

EMPLOYMENT AGENTS
TO Be REGULATED
Bill to Prohibit Agencies From
Exacting Money From Appi-
cants for Jobs.

That men seeking employment con-
sisting wholly of manual labor shall
not be placed at the mercy of en-
ployment "sharks' is the context of
a bill introduced in the senate amend
ing the statutes relating to employ
ment bureaus and the bonding there
off,
The bill as introduced by Senator
Jones provides for the regulation of
the agencies somewhat similarly to
the regulations of the Wisconsin In
dustrial commission but further pro-
vides as does the recently adopted
amendment OF the Washington state
constitution that mo- fee or charge
shall be received or. exacted from any
applicant as compensation for. pro-
curing or obtaining employment for
such applicant in any occupation or
employment wholly consisting of
manual labor"
This provision Of the bill is a new
feature. The balance Of the context
is similar to the bill introduced at
the last session of the legislature by
made in the bill to agencies such as
make a practice of placing teachers,
clerks and hookkeepers. although
these agencies are regulated in their
practices to certain degree.
This bill should have the active en-
dorsement Of every labor union in the
state. It,deserves the attention Of all
people who desire to see justice done
the transient workers and those who
are not fortunate enough to have an
established trade to follow.
The abuses of the private employ
ment agent are far too serious to be
dismissed without earnest considera-
| ton.

Cried out in torture, crushed by

And sucked by priestly cannibals.

And 10! an athlete grinaly stained
With colored corded muscles battle
stained.
Shouting it on the fields of death.
I turn me, awe-struck, from the sight,
Among the clamoring thousands
mute;
I only know that God is right,
And that the children of the light,
Shall tread the darkness under foot.
I know the pent fire heaves its crust,
That sultry skies the bolt will form
To smite them clear; that Nature
must
The balance of her powers adjust.
Though with the earthquake and
the storm.
God reigns, and let the earth rejoice!
bow before His sterner plan,
Dumb are the organs of my choice;
He speaks in battles stormy voice,
His praise is in the wrath of man.
Yet, surely as He lives, the day
OF peace He promised shall be ours
To fold the flags of war, and lay
Its sword and spear to rust away,
And SOW its CHASTITY fields will

THE MAN WHO FAILS

The man who fails is the sort Of chap
VINO IS always looking around for a
snap;
Who neglects his work for a loo1< ar
the clock;
He is grouchy and slow when work
begins;
When it's time to quite he jokes ond
grins.
He's always busy as busy can be
When he thinks the boss is around to
see.
He believes that pull" is the only
way
Ely which he can ever draw bigger
pay;
And he sulks AMI g-owIs when he
sees his plan
Upset by the push Of another man.
He's cn the job when he draws his
pay:
That done he soldiers his time away,
While the men who tackle their jobs
with vim
Keep pushing and climbing ahead Of
him.
For the man who fails has himself TO
blame,
II he wastes his chances, and misses
his aim;
He'd win if he'd use his hands and
wits;
The n.~-l who fails is the man who
