Duncan Dispatch)

The Dispatch cannot agree with the editorial writer of the Empire that a change "can be effected thru the cooperation of the people and the Territorial legislature" in the mater Of better care within the territory for the Alaska insane.
 What the Territory of Alaska needs, and needs badly, is a more vigorous and energetic policy in the governors olive. The Ter ritory is fast demanding less knee bending to the federal administra- tIon" and more attention to the Ter r.tcrial wants on the part of the governors office.
 It is the duty of the federal gov erument to care for both insane and federal prisoners in Alaska. It is also the duty of the federal gov ernment to see that the care is such as will meet the respect of the people of Alaska, who are footing the bills for the same in the way of special license taxes, etc, paid directly into the federal treasury.

Custom In Spain.

One thing specially is vital in Spain: "Costumbre." they say C'It Is the cus- tom'D. It explains commercial honor tersely for the Spanish business man to keep his word and pay his bills; ex- actly as it is equally customary for him to lack what we call "honOr" in some other departments Of life. It Is customary to do or uOt to do, to like or not to like, a thousand things. Why? "CustOmbre" is the only reply. It is customary. moreover, not to yield read fly to an improvement or a luxury even as it is again equally customary, once the Spaniard has yielded to a given thing, to hold to it like adam ant.-ExchGnge

UHAT PERSISTENT RUMOR

There is a persistent rumor going the rounds that Governor Strong will not seek re-appOiutment; that some one high up in the Democratic machine had put a bug in bis ear, wA:cG means that he would not be rc-arpointed if he wanted to.
 But what has he done that any one should oppose him? It may be true that be didn't do very much. At that he did as much as any of b.s predecessors; which is very little, We admit, yet the incumbent Uf that cttjce is supposed 10 be a mste tigurehead, and as such there is nothing to do. One of the great objections that is being brought to ligar now and again is that he as saciatcs much more with repubh- cans than with democrats. While this association may not be bad in irscIg; t is admittedly bad form; hence the persistent desire on the part of some democrats to have a .mau ju he chair who will recognize none but democrats; and that is the way it should be. Because, if t-e republicans had the upper hand they would do the same. Republi- cans never recognize democrats eve at a cocksight.-Progressiv Miner.

GARDEN SHOULD BE BALANCED
Impression Of "Lopsidedness" MAY Be
Avoided by Using Care in De-
signing and Planting.

To keep the proper balance In design
Is salient point in any garden. To
give Il concrete example, one may
Imagine clump of evergreens In one
corner of the garden. and in the op-
poSlte corner some Towering shrubs
the other corners may be balanced the
same way, which will avoid giving the
Impression Of lopsided garden: this
theme of balance should run through
the whole design. The sky line should
be broken by occasional accent points
or taller-growing plants. In planting
the flower beds the taller and lower
growing plants should be intermingled
for this arrangement lends far more
artistic touch than the prevalent mis-
take of placing all the tall plants in n
straight row, and the shorter ones by
themselves. Attractive combinations
of colorS in the blooming seasons are
OF greatest interest, the pastel shades
blending exquisitely, but decided col
ors should be combined with great
care; the different kinds of flowers
should be so planted as to be dispersed
through the garden, so that when in
bloom few lonely masses of color will
not be seen, but the whole garden will
be rich in the flowers Of each season.
The paths should be governed IN
width by the size Of the garden, and
should lead to something definite for
the eye to rest upon, which may be Il
pool, rustic seat or sun-dial, etc.
II you are fortunate enough to have a
view, this will form an excellent axis.
A winding stream is no greater an in
spiration to the poet than 1t is to the
landscape lover it truly offers Won
derful opportunity for naturalistic
treatment, and with a few plants the
fairy touches are made which clothe
the stream in beauty.
Just as garden surrounded with
shrubbery planted in clumps affords
occasional and unexpected glimpses of
the garden within, and thus enhances
the beauty Of the glimpses by framing
them In, so the trees will add greatly
to view by framing In it.

New Plan Of Municipal Government
Has Grown More Rapidly Than
ls Generally Known.

If somewhere, sometime in the ever
booming and quite frequently bloom
ing West there is not evolved the per-
feet plan for governing city, 1t will
not. be for lack Of experimentation
with governmental schemes. A good
many cities and towns scattered over
the map of the United States took up
with the idea Of government by COM
mission during the first decade of the
new century. There was a subsidence
to the rush for the commission govern
ment scheme about five years ago.
Then, In 1913, the Ohio legislature put
through bill formulating what is now
known as the city managing scheme.
The idea has been acted upon to
an extent that the majority of people
are not aware Of. Dayton, o., was
the first city of over 100000 popula-
ton to try-out the manager scheme,
but there are now about 40 cities
so governed. Twenty urban commu-
mites employed manager last year,
Grand Rapids being the largest city
next to Dayton trying the new scheme
Of government. The city manager plan
seems to be only variation Of the
commission government idea. There
is commission, generally of five, be-
hind the manager, and the Com
mission generally appoints the mana
ger,
The city manager plan has been
adopted even in states where there
is no statute providing for such plan
Of government. The idea involved is
being applied in many instances
without any change in the framework
under the old councilmanic and city
mayor forms of government.

Honest Man.

Annis Burke of the Claypool hotel
believes that Diogenes did not need a
lantern to find the proverbial honest
man. Burke discovered that indivd-
ual when he received a letter from q
man in Louisville, who, several DAYS
before, had been a guest at the Clay
pool.
In his letter the man explained that
when he left the hotel he had procured
what he thought was a pair of his over
shoes from his checkroom. He did not
notice that they were not his until he
got to Louisville. He then discovered,
he said, that the shoes he had obtained
were not his, but were a brand-new
pair, and worth at least so cents more
than his had been.
The guest said that he desired to do
the square thing with the man who
had taken his overshoes, and offered to
send the shoes back on receipt Of the
necessary postage. Burke said he
supposed the other man had never no.
