SPEAKING OF
"ENDORSENIENTS"-

Here is the way President Wilson
endorsed the candidacy of Owsley
Stanley.
Writing to Senator Beckham on
the eve of his departure for Ken
lucky, the President said:
Il understand you are leaving to-
day to join Governor Stanley in open
ing his campaign in Kentucky. May |
not say that my cordial best wishes
go with you.
ut is of the utmost consequence
that the Administration chould have
direct and unfiagging assistance of its
real friends at this time, and | wish
you God speed"
President Wilson is said to be a
master of English.
Governor Stanley's private opinion
of this specimen, publicly expressed,
would be powerful fine readin' Lex

NEW WEAPON FOUND
FOR COMBATING HUN

(From Stars and Stripes.)
|. Yankee ingenuity has developed a
new weapon for use against the Hun.
No, it will not be used very often,
yet there are times
An American unit of Engineers
(Railway) was hauling ammunition
and supplies for the French in the
face of one of the German drives
this year.
At the height of things when the
Hun was coming over in force and ad-
yancing in a way which meant the
loss of everything that could not be
moved promptly. a $4,000 locomo-
tive jumped the track.
Sergent George Robertson, in
charge, watched the battle for a mo-
ment, looked at his steam gauge,
screwed the safety valve down tight,
turned the oil fuel reserve supply in
to the fire box, and then effected a
solitary and successful retreat.
Half an hour later, some sixty Ger
mans were standing about the strand
ed locomotive when the boiler did the
one thing which Sergeant Robertson
hoped for-blew up.
II had all the effects of fourteen
inch shell.
Incidentally, Sergeant Robertson
is now wearing the Croix de Guerre.

SAUCE FOR THE GOOSE.

Director General McAdoo has ap-
piled Cleveland's rule of "pernicious
activity" in politics to employees of
the railroads. lie is right in this The
railroads are national. Every rail
road employee is now a federal en-
ploye. He stands exactly as does the
oflce-holder in his duties and obliga-
tions.
If active in politics, two things
would happen: The railroad vote
would become more or less of bloc
IL would be used to promote the in
terests of the bloc II would be a po-
litical training unit and united per-
sonal interest i'm politics, inevitably
would effect labor efficiency. This,
under a nationalized condition, is
manifestly improper.
But will Mr.. McAdoo enforce his
new order? There are very many who
doubt IL. If he does, several railroad
men, candidates for office i'm Mime
sofa, will have to quit their jobs or
end their political aspirations. More
over. their fellow employees will not
be able to work for them save
stealthily. nor for any. other candi-
date. This is equally the case in
most, if not all, other states.
But the railroad men may well
yop1or univ thic rula &c u,odo onI1y
for them and not for any other fed
eral servant. Mr.. Clevelands order
was enforced while he was president,
and federal officeholders had to stick
to their official duties, and not pigeon
hole them during political campaigns.
This is not so now. Never in all
eral officials from the highest to the
lowest more active in politice In fact
they are encouraged in this to use
their jobs not only to influence votes
for deserving Democrats" but to get
elective office for themselves.
The members of the trade COM
llli'Hibil AdNt Hbl ucl W ltolbll W
seek goyernorships and seats in con-
gress. PostmasteTs do not have to re-
sign to hold party committee places,
or even chairmanships. Pretty nearly
every federal official in 1916 quit his
office and spent weeks campaigning
This spring they were out in force
chasing votes in this states primary
election. None of them will be polit-
ically "innOcuous" this fall.
y If not all the horde of other en-
ployes of the present Democratic adj
numbered in hundreds
of thousands. and paid directly from
the federal treasury. why the rail
road men, who are paid from the job?
Why single them out when the woods
are full of these others, chasing votes
for themselves or others?
Why the railroad men, when every
time President Wilson asks for the
scalp of some congressman or senator
who has not kept exact step to his
music, every office holder jumps up
for his gun and knife? 1t is just as
well to wait and see, and not take it
for granted that Mr.. McAdoo is Sc

READS LETTER SHOWING HOW
POLITICS Is ADJOURNED

Washington. Sept 21--Senator
New, of Indiana, Republican, read to
the Senate today a letter which he
said was written by Secretary Tumul-
ty to Arthur Brisbane, whose pur-
chase of the Washington Times with
loans from brewers is under investi-
cation, requesting Mr.. Brisbane to
send copies of the Hearst Chicago
newspaper so that Mr.. Tumulty might
follow Mr.. Brisbane's Democratic
fight in Chicago. The letter follows:
White House, Washington, May14
My Dear Brisbane: When you
were at the White House Offices to-
day. | forgot to ask you to send me
the Chicago Herald and Examiner
regularly to my office here. | am sure
you are going to make the same good
Democratic fight in Chicago that you
have been making in your paper in
Washington and | want to see just
how you do il. Sincerely yours.
j. p. TUMULTY,
Secretary to the President"
Senator New remarked that this
letter was written shortly after poll
tics had been officially adjourned"
and expressed the hope that the letter
would be referred to the Senate COM
mittee investigating the Washington
Times affair.
