it is to be hoped friendly rivalry will result for
the honor of showing the greatest benefits from
individual thrift in each section Of the country.
Americans, accustomed to big figures, big
areas and big ideas, may be somewhat inclined
to scorn the trifles. Nevertheless, the biggest
captains of industry, recognize the Importance of
little things, and many plodding clerks down the
line, excuse this as species of weakness. The
elephant that can rend an oak tree can also pick
up thread with his trunk-and this is no sign
of weakness.
Thrift Day is to be an annual reminder to all
thinking individuals to check up the little wastes
stop the leaks and conserve what is had. It's OBJ
servance may furnish the basis for many success
es in years to come for it is undenably the little
things that count.

What Thrift Idea Means

Promoters of Thrift Day to be observed in
the United States February 3, have submit
ted the following explanation of the scope of the
movement:
1t is interesting to know that move has been
made to inculcate the popular mind with definite
ideas of thriftiness through the establishment of
Thrift Day February Third for. annual observ-
ance. Something to act check on the very
human instinct of extravaganza has long been
sought for by students of economy, and many
plans have been tried with varying degrees of
success.
Possibly of all the ideas for concerted thrift
on the part of individuals that have been devel-
oped, that of Thrift Day will be the most popu-
lar. 1t not only serves to guide the thoughts of
the individual to frugality, but it's proper cee
bration can only be accomplished in one way and
that is action.
We have Arbor Day, Flag Day, and a number
of others commemorating things dear to the
hearts of Americans that are observed in various
sections of the country. Thrift Day is not only
National in purpose, but it is the only day the
celebration of which means actual, tangible ma
teria benefit to every individual cooperating
With the development of Thrift Day in years
to come it will be possible and interesting for
statisticians to make comparisons by commune
ties and areas of the response to this National
call for conservation of individual resources, and

This comes of self-love, the

It exerts its potent influence on
our every thought, impulse and

Y The thoughtful, recognizing this,
have given US code of moral phi
losophy that is a subtle process of
reasoning through which we ac-
count to our own satisfaction for
the misfortunes of others and the
good fortune Of ourselves.
That there is s'no success with

What miserable hypocrites we
are-most Of all with ourselves!
If it we're not for conceit, which
hides from us our defects, the
world would be full of hypochon-
driacs.
Yet vanity has done more for the

Ten Reasons for having a Si1o.

Here are ten reasons why every
farmer who keeps livestock should
have sllo. They were formulated
by Professor j. Fl. Skinner, of Pur.
due University.
1.-The silo preserves the pala-
ia bility and succulence of the green
corn plant for winter feeding.
2-lt helps to make use of the
entire corn plant.
3-The silo increases the live
stock capacity of the farm.
4-Silage is a good summer feed
when pastures are short.
5-Because of the small amount
of ground space required by the ST.
10 it is an economical means of stor-
ing forage.
6--The sio prevents waste of
corn stalks, leaves and husks,
which contain about two. ffths of
the feeding value of the corn
plant.
THE silo located near the
feed manger is an assurance of
having feed near at hand in stormy
as we'll as fair weather.
8-The silo assists in reducing
the cost of grains in, fatteping
ca tie.
9-Silage greatly increases the
milk flow during the winter sea-
son and decreases the cost of pro-
duction.
lO-There are no stalks to both
er in the manure when corn is put
into the silo.

Iage is not complete or balanced

should be supplemented with some
balancing dry feed.

ingiy and intellectually, but at the
outset necessarily lack the strength and
effectiveness Of seasoned men. Then it
is that the regulars rise in public ap-
praisement, and become for time the
mainstay.
This point may be illustrated by
pointing to the Presidents present
flight. He was nominated at Baltimore
largely through Mr.. Bryan's attack on
Tammany as a political machine. And
yet when the campaign for election
opened Tammany was relied upon to
carry New York, and did carry it, for
the ticket. Still, under this admins
tration, Tammany has been barred from
the White House, as have machine influ
enees in other states. 1t has been a
boast of the Presidents friends that no
boss has crossed his threshold.
Now the President, seeking re-elec-
tion, is completely at the mercy of the
regulars. Without their aid he could
do nothing. and even with it may not
be able to win Upon three men his
dependence is very great-Charles +.

tived, but unquestionably the desire re-

tived, but unquestionably the desire re-
mains in some quarters to put the gov
eminent clerks to longer tasks than
heretofore on the mistaken theory that
they do not now work hard enough. It
may easily be conceived that if the
clerks, under a patriotic impulse, agree
to work extra time to make up the
duties of the guardsmen absentees, the
argument can be made that what they
are willing to do in this emergency
they should be compelled to do per-
manently.
There is no occasion whatever for an
extension of the hours of the govern
ment workers. They work hard enough
as it is. Their tasks are exacting and
confining, and with the extra half hour
of recent addition they put in good
time in the government service, many
of them working long after hours with
out extra compensation. While 1t IS
undoubtedly true that in this emergency
practically every man and woman IN
the government employ would be will
ing to take on extra duties or to work
overtime in order that their fellow
clerks might hold their places while
serving at the front, this voluntary ac-
tion should not be made the basis of
a general and formal extension of gov
ernment hours.

Clerks Hours.

The clerks Of the Interior Depart
ment on Saturday, in most commend
able spirit of patriotism, agreed to Sec
retary Lanes proposition to work over
time in case of necessity to perform the
tasks of those members of the force who
have Joined the colors in response to
the call to the National Guard. With
out in the slightest degree suggesting
any question Of the sincerity and hearty
good will Of the clerks in this matter,
it may be suggested, however, that in
but little overtime working on the part
Of the body of the force. The depart
ment personnel numbers about $500
and forty-three Of these have gone to
Fort Myer with the District militia. A
large percentage of these are messen-
gers. As far as the clerical body is
concerned, the number Of absentees will
be but small fraction of per cent of
the force, and it is to be doubted
whether there will be really any occa-
sion for overtime work on the part of
any of the force, if the matter is prop.
erly adjusted.
1t is to be borne in mind that only
a short time ago an effort was made in
Congress to secure the enactment Of a

The Demand on Carranza.

In the latest note to the Mexican gov
ernment the United States demands the
immediate release of the prisoners held
at chihuahua and states that it expects
an early statement as to the course of
action which Mexico has determined
upon. Without any definition of time
limit this is in the nature of an ulti-
matum, and is calculated to bring the
situation to a crisis speedily.
AS The Star suggested the other day
the men held prisoners at chihuahua
may prove to be the turning point in
the Mexican crisis. If the attack upon
our forces at Carrizal was not an act
of war the men taken prisoners there
are detained without right and should
be at once released. If it was an act
of war Mexico should so declare and
put this government on its warning as
to the decision.
A new fact appears in the note which
Secretary Lansing acknowledges to
have received from Envoy Arrendondo,
in which he reported the circumstances
of the "Carrizal incident" This is that
the Mexican chief executive has given
orders to Gen. Trevino to oppose not
only the movements of American troops
east, south or west from their present
positions, but to oppose new incursions
of American soldiers into Mexican ter
ritory. This further restricts the lib
erty of action by the United States gov
ernment and puts an end, if the orders
are executed, to additional expeditions
or the capture Of bandits who may in
wade American soil and escape back into
Mexico. Point is given to this sugges-
tion by the report received today that
Carranza has removed commander of
forces for failure to attack the Ameri-
can troops who were sent over the bor-
der June II in pursuit of band Of
brigands.
From every point Of view this situa-
tion has reached the stage at which
break must come for peace or war
quickly. 1t is impossible that the case
should stand as it is much longer As
regards the American expedition now in
Mexico, delay of action makes for ex-
trene peril. The note to Carranza de-
mands the immediate release of the
chihuahua prisoners, presumably under
penalty of a declaration of war if these
men are not liberated. The issue may
be decided before then, however, by the
commission of some fresh offense
against the United States by either the
Mexican government or its soldiers in
the field.

Preparedness in Politics.

Speaking of preparedness, which has
a political as well as military value,
Senator Taggart has already opened his
campaign. Both parties in Indiana have
made their nominations; and the sena-
tor as the head Of the democratic Or
ganization, and feeling himself respon-
sible for his party's appearance in the
field, has modified his forces promptly.
Being prepared, he has struck the first
blow. And so the battle in the Hoosier
state is on.
Charles T. Murphy could have moved
as promptly in New York, and would
probably have done so if conditions
there had been similar. But in that
state nominations are not made until
September. Campaigns are very ex-
pensive, and, therefore, short Every
thing is scheduled for six weeks. But
when the time comes. Mr.. Murphy will
be ready on the moment, and his COM
mand be waiting for the word
This is preparedness in politics. This
explains the power Of men who remain
IN politics all the year round. They
are the regulars. They understand their
business, and attend to it. They are
the first in action, and ready for action,
when the signal is given.
Men Of this stamp, whether demo-
Gratis or republicans-and they are
found in both parties-are much be-
rated. but seldom underrated, between
campaigns by the heads of what may
be called the militia. Named bosses,
and denounced for possessing and u.s.
ing machines. they are pet targets for
those who ses service only now and

The Underwood Law.

| Mr.. Watterson this year is not in his
.lect His call to battle which resounded
| in 1876, 1880, 1854, 1888 and particu-
larly in 1892, will not be heard in the
campaign now opening. Why, is a ques
ton. The veteran leader has not lost his
fire. His interest in politics is as keen
as ever He is following the game, and
commenting on the different plays with
characteristic spirit and phrase.
But he is not silent as to the tariff.
Take this from his latest utterance:
"Of course the tariff is not out of
politics and never will be as long as
the republican party can fry the fat
out of the manufacturer 1t may be
true that the pussy foots who made the
st. Louis platform had some vague.
mollycoddle notion that they might
either fool the manufacturers or share
the swag with the republicans. But
platforms don't go any more"
Here is what is termed in the vernacu-
lar "a reference to an allusion.' The
Baltimore platform did not ego" In
the main, it was mere spread of mo-
lasses' In part it was violated. Ameri-
can coastwise ships have been forced to
pay toll through the Panama canal.
The one-term plank has been faunted
by the denomination of Mr.. Wilson. The
economy plank has been redeemed by
the largest appropriations ever made by
Congress Noting this record, Mr.. Wat
terson has evidently become skeptical
about platforms and their builders.
Hence his Characterization of the build
ers Of the st. Louis platform as pussy
foots and mollyeoddles.
venturing upon prophecy, Mr.. Waiter
son, who often prophesies, and now and
then hits the mark, declares that 'if the
democrats carry the next Congress, the
Underwood tariff, which is already
Welding a sufficient income, will stand ;
it will stand as the basis of future
amendment on the line purely of reve-
nue.; millions for the needs of the gov
eIument ecOHouilcdly duHihisecioo, NV
a cent for tribute"
The Star said last week that demo-
cratic success in November would mean
when the time came the bringing of the
Underwood law up to date. That law
was indorsed by name at st. Louis, and
must be made the guide if revision is
intrusted to the democrats.
That fact determines the tariff issue
for this campaign. The Underwood law
did not yield sufficient income before
the war began; and since the breaking
out of the war a normal test has, of
course. been impossible. But enough is
known of the law to make it unpopu-
lar in states where the tariff is always
live issue In those states the tariff
will figure for the coming four months
most prominently in all political dis
cussions, and will be one Of the prin-
cipaI items of the republican appeal.
