EXPENSIVE FOR THE COUNTRY

In his handling Of the small as well as the
large affairs of the navy Secretary Daniels is
proving pretty expensive head Of the depart
ment. There is to be sold as condemned
stores by order Of Mr. Daniels, thirty one tons
of tobacco which was bought for the of the
enlisted men. After it had been advertised as
unfit for use, Albert II. Hillman. tobacco ex-
pert and general manager Of the Tobacco Rec
ord, made a careful examination of it and said
it was the best of its kind available III the mar
ket today He added that it in perfect
condition and ten per cent. better than when
purchased. because it had been seasoned. Six
months ago small quantity Of the same kind
of tobacco in just as good condition, was sold
at the New York navy yard for seventeen cents
pound and as this included the eight cent in
tcrnal revenue tax the actual price obtained by
the government was nine cents. The market
price at that time was from forty to forty-two
cents a pound and it is the same today. Pos
sibly Mr. Daniels knows what he is about and
expects to get better prices this time, but the
experts are puzzled. Mr.. Hllman says the to-
bacco now labeled junk is worth approximately
twenty-five thousand dollars and that this sum
could be obtained in the open market if intelli-

CAMPAIGN ROORBACKs.

The last days Of a presidential campaign
comprehend a period Of fever. The pulse Of
the people beats rapidly. Mental judgments Of
some are Influenced by hystera The politi-
cians skilled at their chosen game, take add
vantage of the rise in the popular temperature.
They circulate inherently improbable stories
that they would not dare to put out earlier in
the contest. They realize that there is not time
thoroughly to disprove their statements. Even
if they arc shown to be guilty Of misrepresenta-
ton. the voters may forget about it by the
time the next election rolls around.
Every intelligent citizen should know pretty
well week before election how he will vote
There might be some excuse for INDIGESTION in
unimportant cases. Life is too busy for the
average citizen to investigate the whole his
tory of a candidate for minor office and it is
a part of human nature to trust in the say so
Of others. But the record of candidates for posi-
ton of great power and responsibility is an
open book. 1t has been searched and combed
for flaws long before this. Eleventh hour
revelations do not strike just balance.
