Republicans Slated To Get
Federal Jobs Must Wait,
Says Andrew Baumert,
Jr., At Home From
Washington

The Republicans who have been
slated for federal positions under the
present administration must possess
their souls in patience, according to
National Republican Committeeman
Andrew Baumert, Jr., who returned
went to attend the meeting of the
national committee.
One of the objects of the meeting
was to select a successor to Will II.
Hays, and the other was to make a
change in the apportionment of dele
gates to the national convention so as
to reduce somewhat the representa-
ton from the southern states. The
first was accomplished in the choice
OF John t. Adams who was a con-
tender for the position at the time
of the election OF Mr.. Hays.
Mr.. Baumert considers the recent
meeting of the committee one of the
most important ever held in the
annals of the party. The reappor-
tionment of delegates from the South
presented a problem which had to be
handled with expert diplomacy. I'm

BETTING ON THE PRIZE FIGHT

If one could be dead sure that the Dempsey
Carpenter fight would be absolutely fair betting
on the winner would be cinch. On the face of
the press reports Dempsey's chances of winning
are nearer three hundred to one than three to
one as indicated by the betting
But the class of men who stage prize fights to
bleed the public is not afflicted with nice scruples.
If there seems to be more money in a fair fight
than frameup it will be fair. But if there should
be chance to pull down large roll by throwing
the game, is there any doubt as to whether they
woud throw it?
The man who bets on prize fight, therefore,
is not really stalking his money on the Drawn and
skill Of his favonte, but upon the integrity and
fairness of a set of managers whose very pro-
fession indicates crookedness for prize fighting,
on its face is a crooked game based upon brutality,
and dependent upon evasion of the law. OF
course, if man feels that he can stand on the out
side and cuguess the initiated, he can risk his
money on his judgment, expecting no sympathy if
he lcses. But as a matter of prudence, liberty
bond, a deposit slip is much safer investment.

their orient, to begin Topping off their naval pro-
gram. AS those three nations, Japan. Great
Britain and the United States. are the only ones
at present afflicted with the war mania. why not
get together without delay and seek relief. The
disease can be cured. and the world will be all
the better if its three greatest sufferers will take
the treatment.
Moreover, Is clearly up to this country to take
the lead. Both the others waiting, and signify
ing their favorable consideration.
Why not speak the word. and let our far-called
navies melt away. The cost of one battleship
would drain the Everglades and make South Flor
ida safe for million more people. Two or three
cruisers would clear up every swamp in the state.
Naval expenditures for enc year would build
fifty thousand dollars school house for every ten
thousand people in America, giving Polk county
four. What we waste in war preparation would,
in ten years, do more for the uplift, culture and
civilization of the race than all the wars in the
worlds history. Perhaps the money saved by
cutting out military expenses would not be used
for such benehcent purposes, but the fact that it
could be SO used illustrates what we are throwing
away in preparation for the next great world muir
derfest
The American people want peace, and if they
are denied it now, they may be heard from in less
petite terms when the burdens begin to gall them
a little more.

THE PREPARATION DILEMMA
New York World.)

New York World)
Macmillan Harden's analysis of the effect of
the first attempt of Germany to meet the repara'
ton demands of the allies is worth noting, for it
has certain foundation both in logic and in fact
France and other allied countries objected to re-
ceiving payments in commodities because they
had more merchandise at home than they could
sell. Germany therefore bought American dol
lars to meet the demand for gold, and the effect
on the exchange is apparent in decline of the
franc and the pound.
1t becomes evident to the most obtuse econo-
mist that indemnity of the size of the one Ger
many owes the allies cannot be paid without an
extraordinary unsettling of financial conditions.
1t may be admitted in the end that wrongs of the
magnitude wrought by German aggression during
the war cannot safely be made up for in either
goods OF cash. If neither German goods nor
German money can be pocketed without danger
to the economic stability of the recipient it be-
comes question how much longer they will be
desired

KEEPING FAITH

The press Of the state seems to be unit prais-
ing Governor Hardee for keeping faith with the
people in the matter of tax reduction. He prom
ised, and he kept his premise. AS the Tampa Tri-
bune says, he saved the taxpayers nearly two
million more in opposing the demands for appro-
priations which poured in from various sources dur
ing the legislative session. so that with this direct
reduction, the governor has we'll kept his pledge,
even during the first half of his FIRST year in Of
fee. The testimony of all the leading papers
of Florida could be cited in his favor
In the meantime, he has proceeded quietly,
calmly, cautiously and surely. 1t is an amazing
thing in these topsy-turyv times, for governor
to go through legislative session, quietly holding
the reins Of government and II reality directing all
the important procedure, yet keeping entirely
out of the limelight. Governor Hardee is not
publicity seeker. He uses no megaphone. But
he is force of immense value in this state, and
it is gratifying to his supporters to how thor
oughly he is making good.

THE ORDER CHANCETH

A student of history remarked that the out
standing fact of human progress was that men
never seemed to know where they were going, nor
why.
There is much truth in this. The world changes.
Its changes are brought about by human action,
But behind this force there is an invisible power
that guides and directs it, without deigning to take
hun--.nily into is confidence.
How often do we discover this in the annals
of the past. Men get angry over some grievance.
Hate, revenge, greed, or some common motive
pushes them into conflict. They go into it blindy,
as if from instinct The clouds clear away and
it is found that the result of the cataclysm is some
thing entirely undreamed of by any of the actors
A close observer might see similar forces in
operation now under the similar impulses. The
old order is shaking. On one hand radical"
are running excitedly about trying to tear down.
On the other. conservatives are equally busy
propping it up. The average radical has no high
er conscious motive than desire to get hold of
something he does not possess, and the con
conservative if put or his vcir dire would have to
confess thai his soIicilude is mainly for vested
rights.
1t produces temporary situation which poster
ity will doubtless pronounce comicai. On one hand
we see conservatives banishng or failing socialists
and, at the same time, accepting the enets Of So
cialism as a part of their philosophy. On The other
we see radicals tearing down the monuments of
conservatism. butchcring the bourgcoisie and ban
shing the capitalists yet accepting the maXims and
methods CT conservatism as their guides.
What will be the result? Nobody knows.
Judging from earlier world experiences, it will
simply be modification The old order will
slough off some of its useless appendages. Main
street and the Bols will find common ground. They
will discover to their establishment that both were
working for the same thing; and they will pat
themselves on the back for their wisdom in achiev-
ing it.
The old adage, life is what we make it, is per-
fectly true, if we qualify it with the concession
that in the making we haven't the remotest con-
cepion of what we are doing, or the slightest ink
ling of what it is going to be when it is finished.
The order changeth, and we change with it;
and like the fly on the chariot wheel, we push our
best, and imagine we are making the whole ma
chine go while every other fly is trying to hold it
back.
