SENATORIAL CONSPIRACY.

In practice the senator's name the
officials and the president either con
films or rtfpses to confirm their nom
nation.
There is no exaggeration in the
statement that the senators have for
IAN practical purposes entered into a
conspiracy to restrain appointees
named exclusively for merit from en-
tering the public service. Such is the
effect Of the rule according to which
the senate uses its power of confirma-
tion--the rule of senatorial courtesy.
The senators have d joint understand
ing that If one of their own number
objects to an appointment of resi-
dent OF his state made by a president
of his own party, the other senators
will agree with him in refusing to
confirm.
Never was there a more fragrant in
stance of usurpation by legislative
body of an executive function. The
rule operates so as to transfer the
power of appointment 10 many of the
most important positions in the fed
oral service from the president to the
senate, with a result inimical both to
the qualifications of the officials and
TO the quality of their work. They are
appointed usually because of their
value to the state political organiza-
ton; their allegiance is not due to their
technical superior but to the benefit
cent senator, and the beneficent senat-
or is not troubled by any responsible
ity for the good of the service. The
president is not, indeed, obliged to
name anybody recommended by sen
ator; but he cannot secure conflrma-
ton of anybody not recommended.

READING. HORACE

Oh, were we good when we are

But. fool or sage. some comfort lies
In knowing Horace understood
our follies in their olden guise!
OF all the full Augustan choir
our one contemporary bard,
Who strikes upon silver Tyre,
Where not a note Is harsh or hard,
The human chords that never tire.
Live how he may. whene'er he sings
A poet Is a democrat;
Down two millenniums there rings
The song of Lelsure's Laureat
In praise of all the simple things.
What deep contentment broods above
That refuge IN the Sabine hills
From all that Rome was fashioned
Of
strife, envy, the luxurious Ills
Men, town imprisoned, learn TO lovel
oft he dWells on earth, It's ger
With swift reeoi to life. JOY, JOY
Is all his goal! Though reefed sails
dare
The dreaded seas to Tyre or Troy.
His placid song is foe to care.
Poor hater was he, save of greed
And glutton and the vulgar mind
Chou votary Of thy surer creed.
Ask heaven If thou be more kind
Than was that heart of pagan breedD
Vowed to the laurel from the day
The doves decrled his lids supine
And hid his limbs in leafy play;
A nursing of the dancing vine,
His verse was vintage gold and gay.

NOTED GERMAN AIRMAN
Is KILLED IN FALL

Berlin, June 21-(Via London) -
Lieutenant lmmelmann, whose daring
exploits as an aviator have made his
name known throughout the world, is
reported to have been killed in fall
with his aeroplane.
The lieutenant's name was first
mentioned in an official report from
the German war office on October .,
1915, when it was related that he had
shot down his four aeropanes. The
last mention of his name in an Off
cial communication was on May II
when he shot down his fifteenth aero
plane.
Lieutenant 1mmelmann received va
rious decorations, ending with the
highest order, Pour le Merite, when
he disposed of his eleventh adversary.
When he shot down his twelfth, En-
peror William wrote him an auto
graph letter of commentator Before
the emperor had finished the letter
the report came that the lieutenant
had bagged his thirteenth adversary
The emperor crossed out the word
twelfth and substituted thirteenth,
saying:
zone cannot write as fast as Immel-
mann shoots
The lieutenant was a native of
Dresden. born in 1890. The newspa-
pers devoted much space to his ex-
PLOTS.

Among hundred none so fair,
I've seen IT float on far-off seas,
II thrilled my soul to see it there.
I've seen II wave in many lands
Where ! have wandered, sad and
lone.
There On my heart I'd press my hands
And weep because IL was my own.
I've seen it through black prison bars
When death seemed lurking at my
side;
"Oh, let me touch yon Stripes and
Stars,
I viii die happy then" | cried.

light,
he ever this the patriots prayer;
That kindly hands by day, by night,

COuRasPOhOthCt
Ramah, n. NJ. June 21.-Prof. n. G.
Nelson of the American Museum of
Natural History, who has been camp
ed at the Vogt ranch while conduct
ing Investigations of prehistoric ruins
near this place, has now moved his
camp to Inscription Rock. While near
Ramah he examined twenty large
ruins and some so small ones. AT
Nutria, Box $, Tinaja, and Jose Pine
Canyon he found some quadrangular
and some circular ruins. The large
ruins have refuse heaps but the small
err ones show none. indicating that
they were occupied but "A short time.
At the Day ranch west of town Prof.
Nelson tried out a refuse heap with
fair results. Mrs. Nelson conducted a
digging into one Of the roms and dis
covered an old fire place. Grooved
stone mauls and broken pottery were
found in great profusion and will be
classified
The cliff dwellings in Jose Pine
Canyon were also examined and judg-
ing from the pottery. these homes
seem TO have been occupied by the
same jewellers that lived below in the
valleys. Prof. Nelson thinks that the
cliff houses were used as retreats in
time Of war.
Mr.. Leslie Speer, also of the New
York Museum has just joined the
party and will assist in the work.
The ruins to be examined next are
those at FL Muerto, Cienega, Inscrip-
ton Rock and Soldado canyon.

in the line Of more thorough pre-
parcdncss.
Not since the spanish
war has there been any need for citi-
zen soldiery In this country except in
Isolated cases for riot or strike duty
and the vastly different conditions
that prevailed In 1898 from those that
exist today are such that no basis Of
comparison can be found. Little was
expected Of the guard In 1s9s--in =
deed, little was claimed for II by its
friends beyond the possession of II
rudimentary knowledge OF military
tactics and willingness to fight.
Practically nothing had been done by
the national government to build 1t
up as an efficient military force, and
the war with Spain was over before a
large part OF the volunteer troops had
been whipped into shape for active
service In the field
Since that day, however, millions of
dollars of federal money have been
expended in bringing the national
guard up TO higher standard---in
making II ready to step Immediately
into action in the event Of war, Has
this money been well spent? Have
the claims Of the friends of the ma
tional guard as TO what would be ac-
eomplishcd by the Dick law and other
similar legislation been fulfilled We
shall sec, and that without delay.
OF course, II is not to be expected
that the guard will take the field as
well prepared for action as the regu-
lar army Much viii have to be done
to get 1t into final shape for the
harsh realities of war. Mistakes viii
he disclosed and stll other mistakes
will be made. All this is inevitable in
any system such as that Of which the
national guard is a part.
The main point iss is the guard
formed upon fundamentally sound
military idea? That Is what the
country principally wants TO know
The efforts Of former Secretary OF
War Garrison and President Wilson
to substitute the continental army
for the present system were defeated
by the persistent and powerful opposl.
ton OF a national guard lobby. 1t
is now up TO the guard TO make good
and prove that II did not coerce con
gross into making n monumental,
blunder.
Also, in view OF the sneers or the
eastern press on the showing made by
the national guard units from the Dor
der states now on duty 1t will be in
tefesting TO note how the rest OF the |
country shows up in comparison with !
them.
