ed the recommitted nomination of
 United States Marshal Emmet Jordan
 for marshal of this district. owing
 to opposition in certain quarters, the nomination made nearly a year ago
 has been held up during the interven- ing period. but is now practically cer- tain to receive final confirmation
 within a short time. The recommen- dation Of the committe is said to have ceived with considerable satisfaction by the majority of citizens. who re- cognize in the marshal capable and trustworthy official and one of the few Federal appointees whom the community has delighted to honcr According to the politically wise, the news apparently sounded like a dirge to some of the machine gang opposers of the marshal, who have tried their best to secure his removal by all man. ner of despicable methods, and who see in his practically certain confr- nation the death blow to their own
 hopes of controlling the patronage of the district. Some of them are also said to be exceedingly worried about
 their own jobs. as the marsal's con firmation demonstrates that the ma chine gangs dictums are not so strong
 as they might be.

Italy's Sacrifice.

Italy has called to the colors not
less than 100000 men. and has
suffered the loss of almost 500
600 of them. OF that loss nearly
$50 900 died in battle and 100 900
from disease. Over $50 900 are to.
tally incapacitated, either by
blindness. loss Of limb or tub r.
culosis At the present moment
the strength of the Italian army is
4 OPS 900, including the classe- of
men born ia 1900. who have been
called TO the colors recently. 1t
may be Said, then. that the ma
lions man.power has suffered a
permanent loss of nearly mill
lion. Serious az is this loss, Italy
has inflicted an even greater pun.
ishment npon the foe. In Aus.
trian prisoners alone che has taken
ia 1886. of whom 1899 are otlicere.
The Austrian loss in killed aud
wounded is. of course. unknown
to US, out even the N ost conserva.
tive estimates make it far greater
than ours. ID the last offensive
IA the Pave alone over 200. 600
Austrian dead were left 90 the
field. 1t is a well.merited piece
Of good fortune that Italy has
been able to strike one of the most
spectacular decisive blows of the
war;. The debacle of the Austrians
capped one of the climaxes of the
war The surrender of the Aus.
trians to General Diax on the bat.
tlefield carried with it an even
greater suggestion of . complete
dcieatthan the request of the other
HUI allies for an armistice. Even
going back further than this, we
are reminded by . military re-
viewer that the retreat of the Ger.
mans on the western front really
oegau with the retreat of the Aus
trians behind the Pave before the
oayoaets of the Intrepid Italians.

A Merchants Opinions.

Edward A. Fiiene. of Boston. is
considered one of the lending ner-
chants of the country. aud a state
ment made by him before the
Senate Committee. considering
the subject of the minimum wage,
is rather refreshing. inasmuch as
it differs materially from the
-tereotyped opinions of many of
the leaders in mercantile pur-uits.
THE fact that the average thing
doubles in price before i, reache-
the hands Of the consumer is a
shame, to degree, and those OF
us who give our lives to i. ought
20 be making better prosre-s with
the remedies" observed Mr.. FL.

less the merchants themselves &C.
complish a greater degree OF pro-
gress. the dire ct distribution from
producer to consumer will come"

Filene says that the source CT thu
