j. 5. AGAINST REBEL
N|CARAGUAN HEAD
Attitude Toward Central
American Countries Reiter-
ated to Minister Here.

The United States again has served
notice that it's only concern about the
selection of presidents in Central
America is that no revolutionary
leader be chosen-a policy based on
the treaty of amity recently negotiat-
ed here.
This time the notice went to
Nicaragua, whose foreign minister
had asked the attitude of the United
States regarding a ticket made up of
Carlos Solezano, conservative, for
president, and Juan Bautista Sacasa,
liberal, for vice president. agreed
upon by some leaders of the two
parties.
In refusing to go beyond the treaty
declaration, the American reply said
that the transference of the center
or political activity of Nicaragua to
washington would be detrimental to
that governments interests, and this
government therefore cannot express
It's views regarding any ticket"

CREATION MAIDS DRESS
IN MONEY CLOTHES
Sew Bank Notes on Frocks to In

in Marriage.
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associate Press
ZAGREB, Crotia, July 21.-Village
maidens in Croatia now carry their
dowries in the shape of trimming
sewn on the bodice, instead Of jing-
ling necklaces and buttons of gold
coin as of old. The new fashion re-
suits from the governmental ban on
the possession of gold coins, which
are no longer legal even as d medium
of purchase.
Adapting them mselves to the new or
der, the girls now sew bank notes
of as large denominations as they
can afford in decorative lines on
either side of the bodice as n token
of their rating in the matrimonial
market The man who marries "A girl
displaying half a million dinars, for
instance. knows that she brings him
dowry of about $4,000, and not a
few young women display that much
on feast days.
The remarkable thing about this
display of such amounts of money is
that here. as all through the Balkans,
the young women are perfectly safe
from robbery. as even profe essional
thieves regard the stealing of a girls
dowry as unethical.

Repudinted by Sterling.

senator Sterling likewise repudi-
ates the work and methods of the
Personnel Classification BOARD
AS the result of treating depart
ments and Offices as individual units,
similar or closely comparable work.
In every department and office-the
very evil it was the design of re-
classification to remedy: and the work
done seems to have multiplied rather
than remove inequalities. Instead of
duties classification based on the
standard and tests prescribed in the
classification act. the work done is
largely, if not mainly. mere salary
grading based on recommendations
of administrative officials. with all
the possibilities such a plan invites
for the play of consideration far re-
moved from merit standards and tests
Where standards are employed. thew
are standards prepared as basis
for efficiency ratings.
Many ALLEGATIONS bear strong evil
uehce OF having been framed princi-
pally with a view to meeting the
amount of money It was believed
would be recommended by the Budget
Bureau. so that the final test of allo
cation has been not the specifications
prescribed by the classification act
but the amount of money thought to
be forthcoming. This was something
wholly outside the scope of the du-
ties of the classifying agency; mat
ter left to the Bureau of the Budget
and to Congress. If they decided
that only certain amount of the
Nations money could be spared, and
that amount was less than the sum
necessary to put into effect the allo-
cations determined upon, the obvious
remedy would be a uniform scaling
down. per cent, 10 per cent or some
other per cent.
"a survey of the ALLEGATIONS Of the
Personnel Classification Board leaves
the impression that about all the seal
ing down of salaries was visited upon
the rank and file.
1.-The Personal Classification Board
worked under a plan-so far as it
followed any plan-condemned by all
personnel experts, and with little reZ
gard to the provisions of the classi-
fication act it was their duty to ad-
minister. The result (foreseen by all
who have followed the subject) is a
hodge podge. so that today the need
is as great as ever for a real classi-
fication of the national civil service,
based upon appropriate standards and
tests, uniformly applied"

entering the cuStomhouSeS that will
promote effective competition, pro-
tect against monopoly and at the

the support of the government
Looks to Davis speech.
The tariff question is likely to bulk
larger in the coming campaign than
most persons suppose. 1t will do this
because it has been linked by the
Democrats with the entire subject of
taxation and will be so treated by
both parties. And while as stated
the two parties have come closer to-
gether on tariff principles. the man.
ner of applying these principles af-
fords much room for discussion and
divergence of views
The Democrats are going to claim
that the farmers have been discrimi-
mated against for the benefit of the
wealthy manufacturers and will raise
the old cry that the Republicans
never have gotten over the old idea
Of New England tariff"
Persons close to Mr.. Davis say that

the tariff issue clearer than it has

Van," the Rev. w. w. Van Orsdel,
he worked all over Montana in its
territorial days and later when it
had become a state, and there are
few Methodist churches that were
organized before the close of the
Nineteenth century in which he did
not work or preach.
Mr.. Riggin was the oldest col
league of the Rev. Van Orsdel, and
up to the time of his death was the
oldest surviving member of the ORR
ginal conference embracing Utah,
Wyoming, Idaho and Montana. He
came to this field in 1872 and join
ed the Rocky Mountain conference
the year of its organization. While
Van Orsdel was born near Gettys-
burg, Pa, Mr.. Riggin was born in
Baltimore, Md, was educated in
Dickinson college, Carlisle, Pa, and
his first charge was the Fifth street
church in Harrisburg. He came west
to Minnesota in 1871 and on west
to Montana in 1872, the same year
that Brother Van" came up the
Missouri river. The two met in
1873 at Sheridan, Madison county,
at which time Mr.. Riggin was ap-
pointed preacher in charge of Vir-
ginia City and the Beaverhead circuit
with Brother Van" as his junior
preacher.
They travelled intimately together
for three years on this charge which
stretched from the Three Forks of
the Missouri river to Salmon City,
Idaho. This circuit they rode horse
back, preaching during the week
nights and holding services at the
different school houses and private
homes in southern Montana and
Idaho and holding revival services
continuously the first year from
October to March. At that time they
also held evangelistic services at
Helena, in the Deer Lodge
valley, up in the Bitter Root country
and in any locality where the few
settlers that were gathered then
could be assembled together, usually
preaching at Virginia City and Sal
mon City every other Sunday.
MI. Riggin held the services in the
and at the same periods Rev.
Van Orsdel would be occupying the
appointments roundabout,
but his natural bent was for settle
ment work in the agricultural re-
sions. Their circuit, by roundabout
way, would probably reach from 300
% 400 miles in extent.
The old Rocky Mountain confer
held but n session in Montana
n 1876, at which time Mr.. Riggin
vas appointed presiding elder of the
district while Brother Van,"
till a lay preacher, was minister at
arge. Mr.. Riggin was appointed
superintendent of missions when the
Montana conference was or
