For more years than a man can
u men have felt suspicious Of. II
not undndly toward. n horse with
three white feet There is an ancient
rhyme which runs something like this:
Ono white foot. buy him;
Two white feet, try him:
Three white feet. deny him:
Four white feet. skin him and
give to the crowsL
Not true; nothing in It; facts dis
prove It A fair proportion OF the
fastest. strongest. toughest and moot
faithful horses have had and still
have two, three and four white feet.
Durbar II, n derby winner a few years
back, had three white feet
Another deep-rooted prejudice con-
Germs the colors of horses. A grey
a been generally esteemed as a
tough and staying horse, and a
black horse has been suspected Of lack
of stamina A roam horse either steel
roan or strawberry roam. has always
been sized up as a hardy horsa A
dun horse was thodght to be the last
word in f~eebleness A cream-coaored
horse was suspected of inability to
go the pace, and a white horse, be-
side being hard to keep clean, was
believed to be of delicate constitution
Bays, browns and sorreis have gen
orally been Judged on s'points- and
conformation independents OF the color
question.
All his is wrong according to e1-
periments at a government station
A government bulletin has said that
color of a horse Is no indication
of the real value of the animal and
the statement ca,laot be made too en-
phatic that speed, intelligence. vigor

iumbia who are legally entitled 70 vote in their home
states. It Is the purpose Of the League of Republi
can State clubs to keep a roster Of all Republicans
and assist them in obtaining the proper legal forms
emitting them to cast n ballot in those states where
voting by mail Is permissible
There is nothing about the work Of this organiss-
ton which submits any federal employee to any sort
Of pressure or asks him 70 put up any money. The
organization merely keer3 abreast of the various
to-date list Of al Republicans employed in the Dis
trict OF Columbia There is nothing about this or
ganization which violates Civil Service laws or any
of the proprieties which should be observed by a
federal employee m any position
The hypocrisy Of the Democratic criticism OF this
system is at once evidenced by the fact that where
tons in Washington looking after voters of their
own political faith who are entitled to vote by mail.
The states which have enacted a law allowing
voters who are absent on election day to cast their
ballots by mail are: Arizona, Idaho, Illinois, Indiana,
Iowa, Kentucky, Maine, Massachusetts Michigan,
Minnesota, Montana, New Jersey, New York, North
nessee, Texas. Vermont, Virginia, West Virginia,
Wisconsin. n
In addition TO the above states, Kansas and Ore
gon have n law which permits federal employees who
living outside the state but maintain their legal resi-
dence therein to vote by mail Delaware and Nevada
have a law which permits persons in naval or mill
Of the sta4e.
1t will be seen from the above list that very few
Democratic states have an absent voters law. South
ern states have, as a rule, been so busy making laws
DISTINGUISHING citizens that they have had no time
TO take care Of their legal voters On the other
hand, as win be seen Northern states are e~naeting
laws making It possible for an legal voters TO exer-
else the right Of franchise even when they are not
within the state at the time of the election or pri-
mary.
In bref, It rs the policy Of the Democratic party
to put up obstacles against free ballot while It is
the policy Of the Republican party to remove as many
obstacles as possible. Most likely it was this inher-
emit and constitutional aversion of the Democrats to
free suffrage that inspired Democratic senators to
criticize and msreuresent the Indiana Republican
club OF the District of Columbuia, which is placing
in the hands of every Republican voter in the Dis
trict Of Columbia an application blank whereby he
may obtain a ballot and cast It in the coming pri-
maries.

The Little Deaths

One mourn some tragic little death
each day
Old fancies fade. old loves come to
= an end.
AND old beliefs one counted on must
bend
Before harsh facts. and go upon their
way:
Old, cherished dreams must vaniuh In
the gray,
Drab spaces OF reality; old beauties
change
AS ones developed tastes seek wild
or range
And ancient standards drop into de.
cay.
Yet new beliefs from old shan rise
again.
And fresher beauties though tho
first are gone.
And other loves like blossoms. after
rain
That buried older blooms before the
dawn;
FOR every death shall be another birth.
As spring each a revivifies old
earth. CHARLES BECKER.

TT IS DOUBTFUL if there is a better qualified per-

dent of the civil service commission, now first assist
ant postmaster general. Commenting upon the recent
furry occasioned by the dismissal Of certain employees

lett has said:
at would seem to be reasonably sound doctrine
that in a government by the people when a new ad-
ministration comes in with a fresh mandate from the
people to carry out certain policies it should have the
privilege of having a perfectly free hand to select all
those higher officials to whom must be entrusted adj
ministrative policies and executive discretion. If it
cannot have this power this viii of the people will be
defeated.
at goes without saying that an administration de-
sirous Of accomplishing great reforms and Of carrying
out great policies must surround itself with admins
trative and executive officials who are enthusiastic for
those reforms and policies. 1t must surround itself
with men and women whom it can absolutely trust.
When I say trust I mean trust with its secrets as well
as with its funds, for it Is well known that the oppo-
sition to any power is constantly on the alert to make
the administration a failure. Federal employees who
are constant tale bearers to the minority party are a

4 TEAPOT Tempest

IF A DEMOCRAT can find the slightest provocation
4 to kick, he is as ready as a healthy mule to register
the kick. It doesn't matter to him whether the kick
gets him anything, or not. It is the natural born in
stinct in him to emulate the mule. That is one reason
why IN simpler and honester days the organizers of
the party chose the mule as the party emblem.
Democratic managers with their customary hys-
terra seized upon the incident of a letter sens by the
Indiana Republican club to federal employees at
Washington who maintain their residence in the home
state and are entitled to vote by mail in the coming
primaries, by virtue of the Indiana absent voters law.
The letter which was represented as an attempt
TO club federal employees into line for the Republican
psrty was nothing more Tor less than an application
for an absentee voters ballot. This application is in
asform provided by the Indiana state laws and is to
be filled in and sent to the proper state officials in
Indiana who will in turn send the absentee voter
an official ballot for him to mark and return by mail.
This work of the Indiana Republican club Of the
District of Columbia is a part of the work which is
being conducted by the League of Republican State
clubs of the District of Columbia. This league is
composed of Republicans from every state in the
union who are federal employees in the District of
Columbia. VIM. Tyler Page, clerk of the U. S. House
OF Representatives, is president of the league. There
are over 10000 persons living in the District Of Co.

Whales on EnuIish Farm.

Farm hands digging celery on farm
near Peterborough. England, recently
came upon the skeletons Of two
whales, dating back, it is supposed, 49,
600 to 10000 years. The whales were
lying side by side under the peat, and
just embedded in the clay. 1t is con-
jectured that many thousand years ago
these whales, and perhaps others,
swan up creek, when the wash came
further inland, and got caught at the
top Of spring tide In place where
they were unable to turn. Another
theory has been advanced, though it is
rather far-fetched: Some years ago
prehistoric boat was dug up in the
same field, and the suggestion has
been made that the crew If the boat
was hunting the whales at that par
ticular period.

Hairs Help Unravel Mysteries.

Hairs Help Unravel Mysteries.
In the consideration Of many police
cases, such as mysterious murders,
there is often present evidence in the
shape Of hair in the wounds or in the
fingers Of victims. Heretofore there
has been made little use of this for
the lack of knowledge concerning It.
The Importance Of this subject thrust
itself upon the notice Of John A. Ford
Of the police department of Berkeley,
CAL, and he has made very thorough
investigation into the characteristics
Of hair of human beings and the lower
animals. He has hundreds of speci-
mems, many of which have been exam
ined under the microscope and their
characteristics noted. Rabbit hair on
Ratchet with which a murder has
been done was the means Of tracing
the crime to man who owned the
implement and who had used it to
kill rabbit with shortly before the
murder.
