A third "trusty," working outside the

the two had vanished.

Just after breakfast yesterday, Rob

Democrats Effort to Meet
His Charges Is Called
Amusing.
NAMING OF JONES
AND HARRIS is HIT
Barry Says Former Since APP
pointment Has Been Lobbyist
Attacks Georgia Boss.

David s. Barry, publicity manager of
the Republican National Campaign
Committee, calls efforts Of Wilson Ai'
minlstration officials 70 meet Charles
e. Hughes's charges amusing"
AT the Republican National Com
mittee headquarters to-day" he said
yesterday. "those familiar with condl-
tions at Washington expressed amuse-
ment at the apparent indignation OF
high Democratic government officials
over the smashing blows by Mr.. Hughes
against political appointments to i'm
portant economic and scientific places
in the government service.
"One OF the specific instances given
by Mr. Hughes was that of the appoint
ment Of DR.. E. Lester Jones to be super
intendent Of the Coast and Geodetic
Survey, purely technical and scientific
position. Not only were the qualifca-
tions Of DR.. Jones mainly political, but
during the year or more that he has
held the place ne has been a persistent
lobbyist for more appropriations for his
bureau. Much Of Dr. Jones's time has
been spent, not in his office, but In the
Capitol building.
Harris Appointment Attacked.
1.-THE other specific instance cited by
Mr.. Hughes Is most fragrant prosti-
tuition Of the business OF the govern
ment to politics. This was the APP
pointmcnt of william J. Harris, the po--
ltical boss Of Georgia, to be director Of
the census, n position requiring high
degree Of technical ability and OK
tended experience, neither qualification
being possessed by Mr. Harris.

encos, in session at Washington when
The appointment was announced, pro-
tested to the President, emphasizing
Mr. Harris's unftness for SO important
sharp answer, virtually telling the acad-
envy to mind its own business.
Later Harris was made a member Vt
the Federal Trade Commission, and
while holding that place violated all
proprieties by attending and manipu-
iating the Georgia Democratic STATE
Convention, taking its control out Of
the hands Of Senator Thomas W. Hard
wick.
Drew Senate Comment.
THE political activities of Mr.. Harris
attracted 80 much attention at this
time that his conduct was commented
upon adversely in the Senate Of the
United States, and only a perfunctory
defence was put up for him by Demo
cratic Senators.
"If President Wilson or Secretary
Redfeld wishes full confirmation of Mr..
Hughes's estimate of the political ac'
tivities Of Mr. Harris they can get II by
applying to Senator Hardwick, Of Geor-
gia. who doubtless will gladly indorse
Sir. Hughess statements"
William R. Wilcox, chairman of the
Republican National Committee, will
resume his duties here to-day after a
three days visit to Chicago.

low n point that it could not perform

Changed Overnight.

"Then there came the torch of an
other leader What a change in senti-
ment was wrought overnight in the
councils of the Administration There
was n feeling that an exigency did
exist and that something should be
done; that it was no longer nervous
ness, but prudence, caution and fore
sight, which required immediate ac-
ton.
"There was an able Secretary Of
War, and he devoted himself with
astuteness to the problem and he
worked out a plan. He thought he had
pinned the Administration so that IL
would stay put. don't believe you
could pin the Administration to any
policy that would stay put.
"Well, the matter got so bad that the
Executive presented II 10 Congress.
Only a few months ago il was stated
that our present demand called for this
forthwith: Raising the regular army

thority. in annual instruments of 1885,

WILSON'S CHARGE.

President Wilson charges that foreign born citizens in the United States are trying to blackmail poli- tical parties to act in favor of for cign governments.
 Whether in substance that charge can to a certain extent, be verified or not, is immatcrial, the fact re- mains that President Wilson has shown that political parties are not above the supicion of being amen able to such blackmail. It does not whitewash the affair any to use the suggestive verb blackmail instead of the equally suggestive one to bribe.
 It is an unfortunate circumstance for the political parties of the Un- ited States that a large proportion of foreign born citizens should have 50 low an estimate of the political ideals of the democrats and repub- licans that they should expect them to be swayed by their influential vote. It is hard to get away from this rather embarrassing corollary ot the Wilson theory.

KIRKPATRICK: PROPHET.

Geo R. Kirkpatrick is socialist party candidate for Vice-President of the United States. He foresees fearful panic when the European intuition markets are denied Amer ican munitionists upon whose ac- tivities at least four-fifths of the present so-called prosperity" Is founded.
 However while 1t is likely that there is a grain of truth in this as far as the munitionists are concern ed, there is no reason for such C conclusion with regard to other in dustries.
 Far otherwise: the United States lumber industry. it's coal and iron and structural steel industry will enjoy boom times when the work of rebuilding and reconstruction of the destroyed sections of Europe will begin.
 There will be an effort at wealth production surely made in order to recoup for the war losses, in which

A CHARITY TRUST.

Some time ago the New York Commissioner of Charities reported upon the disgracefully filthy and in- decent conditions that existed in Catholic and Protestant orphan asylums, carried on strictly under religious supervision and under the name of sweet charity and religion.
 The good and holy clergymen tried to whitewash the affair and to discredit the report of Commissioner Doherty.
 The Mayor stood back of his off. cials and charged that there was a conspiracy upon the part of the clergy to thwart the administration of justice, and to prove his conten- tioE he had the wires tapped of cer- tain prominent religious men and the conversations over the phone taken down.
 Then at a public inquiry one oi the clergymen, Rev. Monsignor Dunn declared that this was a plot upon the part of the Standard Oil and Russel Sage Foundation to se- cularize the charitable workings and put the religious housas out of bus mess. &
 We don't believe the charge-at least not against Standard oil. Standard Oil knows very well that it can use religious men and reli- gious teachings too effectively for that. Didn't John D. donate brand new Catholic Church to tho coal miners at Berwind, Colorado in CO., operation with the Rev. Forster and doesn't the Colorado Fuel and Iron Co.'S Bulletin for April 26 show an illustration of the architects plan for the building which were most graciously approved by the Rocke- feller?
 The last thing John D thinks of is secularizstion of anything. The more religion his employees have got the better he likes it. To quote from the Bulletin. "Mr. Rockefeller suggested that in every camp the churches should be the dominating structures both in location and ar chitcctural treatment"
 Shame on Monsignor Dunn to wrong such high-minded man!

SILVER.

The good old times when the country went crazy over the free and unlimited coinage of silver al the ratio of 16 to l halluc!nation, may have gone never to return. But Silver is again rising and caus- ing those people who have to, much money a little uneasiness. Thus the Mexican dollar is now above it's gold standard relation, and an Eng fish economist says that it will nov
 pay to import Indian rupees be- cause silver is of higher value than the circulation redeemable in gold calls for. In the meantime the pur- chasing power of the gold dollar is rapidly diminishing and the huc- tuation is becoming so serious that
