WASHINGTON
DAY BY DAY

(From our Special Correspondent
Washington April l1.-Major Cen
eral r. w. Nichols, in command of the
Virginia Military Institute at Lex
ington. Va, formerly major of engi-
neerS in the World War, has written
q letter 10 Senator Carter Glass, Of
Virginia, praiSing the Senator's stand
on the bonus matter. General Nichols
declares that a large number of for
mer service men are opposed to the
bonus as passed by the House and are
not looking for charity at the hands
nf this government.
In his letter 20 Senator Glass, Cen
cral Nichols says among other things:
Il am I'm entire accord with your
views and am very sure that there
are very large number of eX-ser-
vice men who, ike myself, are utterly
opposed in principle TO legislation Of
this character There are things in
this world that money cannot buy,
and there are number of us, and the
number IS not small, who would ut
tcrly resent any suggestion of attemp-
ting to recompenSe US in money for
the discharge of a manifest duty,
which we owed TO our country.
The principle of legislation of this
character Is, i'm my judgement, utterly
wrong and | do very earnestly hope
that the Congress will put the seal of
their diSapprobation on any measure
looking to the recompense Of the able
bodied men of the World War for the
services they rendered. Such legis-
lation is wrong, I think. from every
point of view, and tends to undermine
not only the patriotism of our people.

proposed is the very worst that has

AUTO TAGS.

4 st. Paul, Nov. 11-Joseph H.
Gieske OF this city has invented a
machine which, he says, will stamp
out automobile tags in one opera
ton and at less cost than they are
manufactured at present.
The machine, he says, may bring
about the formation of one of the
largest industries in the country
under one organization. At pres
ent the 100000 auto tags used
annually are produced in state
prisons, and in some states, by pri-
yate manufacturers.
& Under the old methods one op-
GRAFTON was required to cut the
tag, another to round the corner:
and punch the slots, third to STAMP
the numbers and a fourth t
change the dies.
Gieske's machine does all thi
with one stroke. Also it savel
considerable time in the operation
And the final cost of the finished
product is said to be much les!
than that of today.
The inventor is negotiating with
large financial interests for the or
ganization Of a national license TAG
firm.

Syracuse, New York. Nov. IL
Far better than his latest electric
model car will be the model now
being completed by DR.. Charles p.
Steinmetz, electrical wizard, at his
experiment plant here.
This is the promise given by
Steinmetz himself to those who are
waiting for final approval OF his
latest electric vehicle.
! 1t was only little less than a
year ago that production was start
ed on the Steinmetz electric for de-
livery purpose. Now manufactur-
ers Of this vehicle are preparing
for improved machinery that will
produce a lighter form Of electric
chassis not only for commercial
use. but for passenger bodies as
! we'll.
Little is as yet known about this
latest product of the electrical
genius. 1t has just been completed,
but has not yet been fully tested.
Still, its designer and its manufac-
turers express full confidence as
to the outcome Of the tests. The
experimental chassis is being
packed for the Baltimore branch OF
the Steinmetz firm, where the tests
will be held.
4 From the little that is known
about this improved vehicle it Is
believed automobile owners will
have a new form of electric ma
chine to look forward to. The sa-
lient features of the Steinmetz cal
now being produced have been i'm
proved upon in the new car, it:
, manufacturers say.
) These. they say, are:
D l. Low cost of maintenance ami
) repair.
2. Simplicity of operation and re
$ liability.
S 3. Quick getaway.
4. Sustained speed.
| 5. Resiliency.
5 6. Minimum vibration.
The weight of the batteries Of
the car are evenly distributed be
tween the front and the driver
seat. The chassis also has a mo
tor suspension and gearing whicl
is said to be an improved type o
that on electric trolley cars.

Coming Again.

WHAT has become of the clamor
| w for cars, the agitation that center.
ed IN the transportation system of the
United States short two years ago;
Where are the persons who held that
Americas railroads were decade be.
hind the remainder of the country
that development of the transporta-
ton system was essential if the counc
try were to go forward the way it
should?
DO not for one minute think that
the situation has changed one whit
over what it was two years ago. Bust
ness depression has permitted the rail-
roads to meet demands made upon
them. That is all. Business is not
normal and the transportation system
IS adequate to meet present require
ments.
But business is once more definitely
on the upgrade. Better times are GER
tainly ahead. When better business
again reigns over the land, the rail-
roads will once more be the center of
attack. 1t is inevitable. This breath
ing spell for railways will be brief
enough.
Ere long, every terminal in the Uni
ted States will be damned with cars,
many of them lost for months, absol-
utely withdrawn from service. Farm
products will rot waiting for cars that
cannot be supplied. losses everywhere
Will mark the next inevitable strangu-
lation of the railroad system.
The pitiful thing is that the rail-
roads, knowing full we'll that this is
coming, are doing nothing to prevent
1t. Whether lack of capital or short
sightednesS is responsible, probably
only railroad executives know. Each
one is contributing factor in all
probability.

Eggs.

TWO car loads of eggs, CAREFUL,
graded and Grated, left Caldwell
this week for Butte, Montana, ALWAYS
good market for poultry supplies
when the mines are operating, as thew
are at present. Even at the present
low quotations, those eggs are valued
at more than $4,000.
Today southwestern Idaho is pro.
ducing surplus eggs at the rate of al
most carload week. Without a
marketing association, those eggs
would have glutted home markets,
would not have possessed absolutely
no monetary value. Despite unsatiis-
facotry market conditions at present
tor eggs in New York, a market that
establishes egg prices the nation over,
these shipments bring home one thing
producers are at least turning them
over.
But eggs will not always be so
cheap, In the long run, there prob
ably IS no business that can compete
with the poultry business in this fav-
ored district.
Caldwell is the egg center of Idaho
today, Since the marketing associa-
ton began functioning properly. local
pool quotations have been uniformly
higher than at Portland. And no one
OF us has forgotten that before the
marketing association entered the
local held to lift the price limiting
surplus, southwestern Idaho produc-
ers were receiving about Is cents per
dozen less than were western Oregon
producers and IS cents dozen less
than outside markets warranted.

Not Settled.

0NE gathers from advocates of ar
irrigation district that the recent
supreme court ruling relating to the
collection of delinquent assessments
really settled nothing. The supreme
court ruled that such obligations were
not amenable to ordinary means of
collection, that foreclosure is neces-
sary against realty upon which the
assessments are direct lien.
But the court did not say, it ap-
pears, that even this method could COL
lect those assessments. It simply
held that this avenue alone was open
as possible means. In fact, Judge
b. S. Varian, in suits upon this basis
against Walter Griffiths and Tom
Tarr. had previously held the assess
ments not collectible even by the fore
closure method. The district court
maintained that the assessments were
not properly made, advertised, or due
precautions taken to collect outstand-
ing delinquencies prior to making ad-
ditional assessments. In non-technic-
al terms this seems to be the gist of
the matter, however the legal YER
biage may have been pronounced.
thus the supreme court settled moth
ing, irrigation district advocates as
sert. Where do we go from here?

THE ROMANCE OF WORDS
"0UILLoTINE."

A CCORDTNG to history as 1t
"A Is popularity accepted, the
instrument by which criminals
are automatically beheaded was
invented by Joseph Ignace Gull
lottne, who was also the first vic
tim Of the machine. Outside Of
the fact that Doctor Guillotine
neither invented the apparatus
nor persisted by 1t, the general
impression of the matter is fair
ly correct.
The original model for the
guillotine was constructed by a
German pianO-maker named
Schmitt, under the direction of
Doctor Louis, a French surgeon,
who In turn obtained his idea
from the manaja, a somewhat
similar instrument which had
been used In the Latin countries
for centuries. At first, the in
vention was known as the
"Louison," but, owing to the fact
that Doctor Guillotine waged
ceaseless warfare upon the bar
barities of the rack and the
wheel and continually urged the
adoption Of this more humane
method Of inflicting death penal
ty. his name was indelibly as
ISOLATED with 1t. On March Is,
1892. the national assembly
passed the resolution recon-
mending the use of the machine
in all French prisons and 1t was
publicly used a month later in
the beheading of a prisoner
named Pelissier.
Far from perishing by the in
vention, which, despite his pro-
tests, was called by his name,
Doctor Guillotine died in his
bed in 1S14-having achieved a
vicarious fame which he did not
desire and to which he was not
entitled.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS.
THE GIRL ON THE JOB
How 10 Succeed-How to Get
Ahead-How to Make Good
DO YOU WANT SUCCESS2
By JESSIE ROBERTS

TO YOU want to make success OF
II your business life or do you pu.
that second to having goou
time? Don't complain If you can
have both. The girl who runs arounu
from party to party Is not going to ger
to her work in the best state FOR DONG
1t well. Her mind is not clear, her Dcdy
Is not alert She Is tired.
Are you willing to do the unlnterest-
ing part of your job well, or do you
slur what you don't like in 1t? Every
Job has its grind side. But to succeed
you must make that grind worth while
by doing it well. 1t Is part OF the price
you pay for success.
You must keep In good physical con-
dition If you want success. You need
proper rest, enough sleep and healthfui
food. You need exercise in the open
air. Keeping fit is part of the price
you must pay for success.
A number Of girls regard an office as
a sort Of matrimonial bureau. Their
first idea is to be fascinating to the
male element. But If that Is what you
are after, don't say you want success
In your business, and don't be sur
prised If you see other girls who do
want success get advancement while
you stay put.
Success is big thing. The success
full woman is not afraid Of losing her
Job. She knows that her work is so
good that an employer will be lucky
to get her, or that, If she is In bust
ness for herself, she Is sure Of results.
But success is not an accident.
