TO EXAMINE CANDIDATES

The Chicago Herald still champions the direct primary as great reform, although it is conceded that it has not met the ex- pectations of those who believed that t would simplify nominations and make it easier for the deserving to secure recogni- tion On the contrary, 1t has enabled men of means and demagogues with strong or ganizations behind them to have their own way. The direct primary has put into the United States senate and at the head of some state governments men who would never have been selected on merit or fit ness. If it were possible and practicable to compel all candidates for public office to submit to preliminary examination as to their capacity the direct primary law would work out its own salvation What great state in the Union has the nerve to try this latest experiment and thus to vim dicate the direct primary law?

PROTECTING THE BIRDS

A treaty between Great Britain and the United States has been signed with the ob- ject of assuring protection to lnSectvorous birds on either side of the Canadian houn- diary. Ii IS not quite exact to say that thls is the first treaty for the protection ot anl~ nal life; the fur seals are thus protected, and they live in the ocean. which belongs to no man. The only way in which the treaty can be enforced iS by the enactment of laws arranging closed seasons in accord with the migratory habits and the breeding seasons of the birds This has been done by the United States though the constltu- ,ionality of the law is being tested. The Canadian parliament is under no embarrass- ment in this respect What it decreeS IS constitutional Let Us hope that the treaty and laws for the protection of bird life will be better observde than many treaties and laws for the protection of man life Phlla- delphia Record

TYPEWRITER FOR CHINESE
 HAS 4,OOO CHARACTERS

A Chinese typewriter of unlque design, utilizing no Less than 4,0O0 written char acters, has just been invented by Hou Kun Chow a graduate of the Massachusetts In stitute of Technology enc of the first Chi, nege students to be educated in this coun try. and now nechanIcal engineer Tn Shanghai.
 The ordinary Chinese printing office Uses bout 5000 characters, While q complete Chinese dictionary may contain as many $ 5O0O0 For all practical purposes, how .-yer the 6,000 characters commonly used D a Chinese printing office are sufficient.
 Mir. Hou's invention has been exhibited ov him at the American consulate general t Shanghai It is simple in design, port able, and should be comparatively mex pensive>
 The 4,0G0 characters are distributed over an ordinary metal matriX drawn about a cylinder which Is approximately six inches in diameter, and has the appearance of being about sixteen to eighteen inches in ength. The characters represented on the cylinder ere printed on a fiat table sur face attached to the front of the machine, and by means of a rod attachment to the cylinder it is possible to locate any char acter by placing the pointer at the end of the rod above the character on the flat surface When this Is done the character n the cylinder is in exact position for SC curing an impression by the dropping of q hammer on the pmnger. In this way several carbon copies may be secured.
 MT Hou first thought of the practi, cability of a Chinese typewriter while in ,pecting American typewrters at Boston as a student at the Institute of Technol 2gy. He has met with great obstacles because of lack of technical assistance at Shanghai
 Inasmuch as it would be utterly impossl- ole to construct typewriter having keys corresponding to the multitudinous Chinese characters. Mr. Hou resorted to the device
 f having the revolving cylinder attach ment The first model of the machine, now exhibited, weighs about forty pounds By improvements which are under way the veight will probably be reduced to thirty nounds-Ex

SILK SOX SUPPLANT COTTON
 OWING TO RISE IN PRICES

It has remained for Americans to make good an apparent anomaly. Marie Antoin- cite made the world laugh when she asked why the starving people of France did not eat cake when they had no bread says the Chicago Herald
 A year or more ago American hosiery manufacturers were facing shortage of cotton. Then someone asked: "Why not use siIk?" There was not even q sngger, and since that time the majority of Ameri- cans have been wearing stockings and socks woven of that material
 This was but one of the many interesting facts disclosed by an investigation of the hosiery industry now being conducted by William killian hosiery buyer for one of Chicagos large department stores. He has not yet found satisfactory answer to the question why there should be a shortage of cotton, but that silk is rapidly suppEanting that textile Is a fact that is becoming more apparent every day,
 "The modern merchandising world fur nishes nc more curious example than that to be found in the hosiery market" MT. Killian said Our grandfathers who wore sturdy wooten socks knitted by our thrifty grandmothers would open their eyes in honest amazement if they could peep at the ankles of present day men and women.
 "1he pedal extremites of the lowllest shopsrE and the most humble clerk are clad nowadays in the finest silk. The iceman, the butcher and baker who deliver our supplies at the back door wear just as fine socks as the master of the house.
 Il l Cl not even experts have been able to answer so far, unless, perchance, it is because Americans are demanding and are willing to pay for the best that the market affords. l personally know of cases where clerk making a salary of S6 week pays $l d week for pair of silk socks of the finest quality"
 Hosiery prices in general have advanced from 10 to 20 per cent during the last year, and, with the shortage in dyestutfs and the growing shortage in cotton yarn, will ad- vance still more,
 This sdvanve, however, has not involved great hardship, continued Mir. kllllan, 'for the reason that wages have increased pro portionateby The dye situation furnishes another example of the adaptabihty of the American public.
 When the European war broke out man ufacturers were panlc-stricken. What will we do for black dyeE they asked. Anc the answer came when the consuming pub lie said We will wear light coFored hosiery. Since that time black socks and stocking. have become positively 'Ctowdy and the smart dresser wears white or gray. ha Ion that the closing of the dye markets ;i Europe has stimulated the industry in tho United States to the point where We vi practically be independent of foreign source: when peace is concluded, if the war last another year or so, While prices are ad vancing the situation is not serious, anc there seems to be slight danger of stoclin! 1 famine"

IDITAROD MAY BE STATION
 ON THIS PROPOSED RAILROAD
Lkansas City Star

The old project of a tunnel under the Strait Of Dover, to link England and France, has been revived, Leading men ill both nations see that if such tunnel existed British troops, munitions and military sup plies could be sent through It safely, and this would release fleet of war vessels and transports on duty in the channel and let them work elsewhere. It seems probable now that as soon as the war is over the tunnel will be built It is estimated that such tunnel would be thirty-fve miles long and would cost $50000O0O.
 When King Edward opened the great Forth bridge in Scotland London artist drew a picture of train crossing it, bound south and bearing this prophetic legend : Through Train Aberdeen, London, Dover, Channel Tunnel Paris, Berlin. St, Peters burg. Alaska, Canada. New York"
 A dream? Yes but they said Goethe the German poet, was dreaming when he prophesied that some day canal would cut the ISthmus Of Suez, another would unite the Atlantic and the Pacific at Pan
 a, and third would join the Danube and the Rhone. All three have been accom- pli>hed,
 And who will assert that the time will not come fhen through passage may not be booked from New York city, or from Kan sas City, by way of Canada and Alaska, across the narrow Boring strait by bridge, which has been declared to be wholly prac- tcabe, thence by rail to Nladvostok, to Petrograd by the Siberian railway, to Der lin, Paris, and through the channel tunnel to London? Such line would connect all of Europe with America by a land route And when the North and South American railway has been built, and the Cape to- Cairo road Is finished, traversing Africa its full length from north to south, the traveller from Patagonia, having reached Berlin with out wetting his feet, could go on, dry shod, by way of the new Berlin-to Bagdad rail way, the building of which was interrupted by the war across the Bosporus bridge into Asia, by rail down through Palestine, to Suez by the new German military railway, now almost finished from there to Cairo, and across Africa to Capetown.
 Thus would the two Americas, Asia, Europe and Africa be linked together by a chain of steel, unbroken in its whole length, and through train could be sent almost around the world traversing every continent except one-Australia.

TO SHIP ORE BY AEROPLANE

The Wright AeropIane Company has been asked by New York banker for estimates on ten airships, each capable of carrying ten tons of freight. He contem- plates using them to carry workmen and tools to an almost inaccessible mine in the mountains and to carry valuable ore out This type of airship would cost about sG0,, 900 each. If round trip were made daily on 300 days year, an arship could carry 900 tons of ore year At only , ger cent interest on their cost the transporta ton charge would be 33 per ton of ore Much ore has stood higher freight charge with the addition of mining cost and smelt ing.-Oregonian.
