Letter Carriers Position.

Carriers employed in the service of the post
Office department are perfectly within their
rights in discharging their duty TO the public
people with all the facts bearing upon their
compensation for services performed. They
do this with disrespect to the postoface de-
partment, which does not fix their wages. but
which depend entirely upon the acts and
appropriation Of congress, and are merely aim
ing to correct the misspprehension that seems
to exist concerning the salaries they are
receiving.
Carriers, therefore, are engaged in cam
paign of education, in which they are striving
to show that instead of having received an in
crease in pay Of so per cent within the past
ten years. they have received an increase of
20 per cent. The $500 additional, which is now
paid them as is common with all postofice
employees is merely for the present fiscal year,
the end OF which it will cease to be effective.
unless taken up further by legislation of con-
gress.
They seek also to correct the impression
that the government furnishes their uniforms
which is not true. The carriers pay for all
they wear out Of their own salary. the depart
ment simply designating the standard clothes
and requiring postmasters to see that the men
are dressed as the regulations stipulate The
men do not complain at all about the uniform
question, which probably costs no more than
ordinary clothes, If much, and are equally
as serviceable, if not more so, BUT they do de-
sire the public to know that what they wear,
they pay for.
Altogether, therefore, it would seem that
the carriers are fully justified in enlightening
the patrons of the service of the conditions un-
der which they serve.

Jail for Prohteers.

Attorney General Palmer has taken high
ground as well as drastic measures in dealing
with the profteer, who is the real cause of all
the present high cost of living. In all the cate
CORY of mean fnanciers, the most detestable
is he who speculates on the necessities of life
for which God created the demand and for
which God provided the supply. Any men
banded together for making fabulous profit,
who have sought to corner and parcel out for
their own gain, the things which man must
have in order to subsist and live have put
themselves beyond consideration in ordinary
terms. 1t has seemed almost as if without the
pale of the law to provide way to put an
end to proceedings of this kind, but if the attor-
ney general of the United States has discovered
that it is only within the, criminal code that
men who profit unlawfuIIy and unreasonabIy
at the expense of the people, could be brought
to time, then so be it. But it seems the end
Of the rosy path Of the profteer has been
reached. At least it is pleasing to entertain
the thought that he has.
Attorney General Palmer, seeing the injus-
tice and inefectiveness Of the system of assess
ing fines from those convicted of profteering
has launched his war against the profteer with
the announced intention of placing him behind
iron bars.
That will stop profteering, as fines never
would.
fine, no matter how great is but a drop
in the bucket to individual making millions
of dollars out of a shameful business OF
course he would pay the fine, yes gIadIy-and
then promptly go on about his business of TAX
ing more dollars from the pockets of his help
less victims. He could continue doing that
indefnitely-and grow fat the process.
However, the Jail idea is different. The
profteer doesn't like the mental picture the
suggestion brings of himself inside of narrow,

grey, stone walls with grated windows and a
limited diet. That is quite different from pay
ing fines. But that is exactly the picture that
the announcement of Attorney General Palmer
brings to the minds of the profteers.
Now, if the attorney general. with the nee
essary help from congress in the form of addi-
tionaI laws is able to carry out his announced
program, there seems little doubt but that there
will be at least SOME relief from the existing
conditions
And those who followed with any degree of
attention Mr.. Palmer's activities in connection
with his former Office as alien property custo-
dian, in which he so effectively prosecuted the
German interests in this country that his ap-
pointment as attorney general was hercely de-
nounced in Germany, have no doubt of his abil-
ity to perform the task.

The Telephone Situation.

1t is sincerely to be hoped that as a result
OF Mayor Harry NJ Schriver taking the matter
before the public utilities commission Of the
state the unfortunate condition of the tele-
phone service in Rock Island will be adjusted.
AS The Argus has stated repeatedly, the
Central Union Telephone company is not play
ing square game in Rock Island Having failed
to give its employees a square deal, it is not
now giving the public square deal, practi-
caiIy admitting that it cannot perform service
in the face of the situation that it cannot even
repair injured cables" because it is unable
to get men to attend to the work But it should
be game enough to acknowledge it's defeat. At
the very least it should accept the employees
ties. particularly so, when the strikers are
ready to return promptly to their work at the
instant the company states it is willing to sub
NIT all the differences to fair tribunal.
The telephone service in Rock Island is be-
coming crippled every minute. and is
is doing nothing to remedy it, which is the
best evidence that it has lost the strike. and
it is seeking to prolong it, only for the purpose
Of shifting the odium of the condition to the
shoulders of the employees.
Patrons OF the service should see to it that
ceived. and to keep track from day to day
when their service is out of commission, and
demand rebate for the same

MINNOWS VERSUS MOSQUITOES.

MlNNOWS VERSUS MOSQUITOES.
The mosquito which carries yell
low fever is a domestic animal,
found almost exclusively close to
human habitations. The famous
Jersey skeeter is a wild animal
seldom found near human habita-
tions. The Misunderstanding mos
quito is a semi-domestic animal,
like an active lodge member,
abroad and busy at night. some
times seen around the house but
preferably out with the rest of
the boys
AS a rule mosquitoes do not ven
ture far from their breeding places.
Most species travel only a few
rods from their breeding places.
Therefore the destruction or re-
moval of breeding places in the
immediate vicinity of the home
removes the pest of mosquitoes.
The essential condition for mos
quito breeding is dead or stagnant
water, and sufficient stagnant
water accumulates in an obstruct-
ed cave or in an old tomato can
out behind the fence or in the I'M
screened rain barrel or in a COW
track down the lane TO breed all
the mosquitoes one could desire in
season. Weedy places along the
edges or shores of brooks or ponds
are ideal breeding placs. Old trees
or brush hanging into the water
from shore furnish protection for
breeding mosquitoes.
The mosquito lays eggs on the
surface of the water in a protect
ed place In a day or two the eggs
hatch into larvae. called wiggle-
tails. The wiggle-tail lives in the
water but must breath air con-
stantly In about a week the larva
is transformed into a comma-shap-
ed creature called a pupa. which
remains quietly at the surface for
two more days. after which time
the adult winged mosquito energies
from the pupa AID sets up in bust
ness for himself. The whole time
from the laying of the eggs TO the
full grown skeeter is therefore
less than 10 days in warm weather.
Frequent spraying OF the water
