Colorado Statesman

THE COLORADO STATESMAN THE JOURNAL OF THE WEST. LABOR SHALL BE FREE RAGE COUNTRY PARTY REPUBLICAN NOMINEE FOR CONGRESSMAN FIRST DISTRICT. Senator James C. Burger, the Republican nominee for Congressman of the first district, is one of the best known and most highly esteemed men in Colorado. Mr. Burger was born in New York City, November 21, 1866, and received his education in that city. He began business in a wholesale grocery and after severing his connection with the firm he connected himself with a Wall Street brokerage firm having offices in New York and Boston. In 1893 he came West and settled in Denver, where he has since been an active citizen in things that tend to better civic life. He is president of the Union Deposit and Trust Company and vice president of the Piquot Real Estate Company, both of which have done much to make Denver one of the most progressive cities in the country. Mr. Burger has always been a most pleasant man to meet and is deeply interested in the rise of the Negro, who can point to his many quiet acts of charity which has helped them over the rough roads of life. In Colorado there are an unusual number of blind men—men who have lost sight through mining accidents, and who in the hay-day of their lives have been rendered suddenly helpless, far more so than those who have lost M. H. their sight as little children and been trained and educated at the state's expense and fitted to walk in darkness. Nobody thought much or did anything about these men until Mr. Burger was elected senator, and introduced a bill to create a workshop where they might be taught to be self-supporting. Even then he was able to get only half-hearted support and the bill passed with such a small appropriation that the "shop" would have existed mainly on paper, had not Senator Burger bought and installed a broom factory plant at his own expense. The present appropriation is small and inadequate, but since the plant was established men have been taught brush and broom making and enabled to do something for themselves. It means independence and freedom from the haunting fear of the poor house in old age. If these men could be turned out to campaign the counties that make up the first district they could tell a story of personal generosity, unflagging interest and devotion that would mean thousands of votes for Senator Burger. Mr. Burger deserves the support of every voter who believes in the best government for the people. He is a man of large business connections and experience and if elected he will reflect great credit on the party and state as well. weh. VOL. XVII. REPUBLICAN NOMINEE GRESSMAN FILM Senator James C.

Robert Allen Cole, better known in public life as "Bod" Cole, of the team of Cole and Johnson, is a patient at a private sanitarium located at Woodcliff on-Hudson, N. J. where he is being treated for nervous trouble brought on by a slight mental breakdown. His case is not considered serious by his attending physicians, who think he will be able to resume his vaudeville engagements after a short rest. Mexico, Mo.—Word has been received here that Tom Bass, a Negro horse trainer of this city, who had a string of his best prize winners at the Iowa state fair at Des Moines, won the saddle championship ring with his great stallion, Rev A. Chief. He won first and second in the high school class with Louis A. and Black Beauty, respectively. In the combined saddle ring he won first with A. McDonald.

The plaintiff was represented by H. V. Cashin, a Negro lawyer of Decatur, and the lodge was represented by E. A. Brown, a Negro lawyer of Birmingham. The case was decided in favor of the lodge. REPUBLICANNOMINEE FOR SHERIFF. The Republican candidate for sheriff, who is the present incumbent in that office, is too well known to need an introduction to the voters of Denver county. His record as sheriff is such as to recommend him to the voters of the county, without regard for parties or factions. Sheriff Nisbet has always been a straight Republican, patriotically supporting its national leaders and staunchly upholding those principles which has made the party great, and it is a matter of congratulation that he is the head of the party ticket in this county, nominated by a convention that fearlessly and unanimously denounced such Populistic schemes as the initiative and referendum. He is a capable, efficient and fearless officer whose level-headed manner of conducting his office has made him admired and trusted by the whole people. He thoroughly believes in giving the colored people representation in his office, and his direction of legal affairs in which colored people are involved is always marked with exact fairness and even leniency. Mr. Nisbet came to Denver from Maryland state in 1886, and for many years was associated with the Robertson & Doll Carriage Company. As a business man as well as an official he has an unassallable reputation. His popularity gives him a big advantage in the race for sheriff. Why Colorado Should Send Hon. I. is also the best novel advocating public ownership of natural monop- A congressional nomination very gratifying to friends of just and progressive government is that of Hon. I. N. Stevens, who was selected for Congressman-at-large by the Colorado Republican convention. Mr. Stevens has for years been conspicuous for his splendid loyalty to the basic principles of free and just rule. He has bravely fought political corruption and the public-service corporation corruption which is the backbone of the boss and the dynamo of the money-controlled party machines. He was too much a fundamental thinker to imagine that there could be anything like clean, efficient or popular representative government while the great natural monopolies were in the hands of private corporations, and to make popular this vital issue he wrote The Liberators, which, while being a fascinating and wholesome love romance, is also the best novel advocating public ownership of natural monopolies that has appeared for propaganda purposes. Mr. Stevens also recognized the vital importance at the present time of securing for the people the tools of Democracy, to the end that they may at all times be in a position to make the government responsive to their wishes. For years he has ably advocated Direct Legislation, as he has also woman's suffrage. He is a man of broad and statesmanlike vision, a lawyer and journalist of marked ability, and is precisely the kind of man we need in the next Congress. Colorado will honor herself and confer a benefit on the nation by electing Mr. Stevens to represent the Empire State of the Rockies, which druing the past year has made the most enviable record in political advance that has marked the history of any American commonwealth in recent years.—B.

Legislative action will be necessary to carry out the project. Ex Superior Laundry 6 ALL HAND WORK, re a (P a J. W. CASEY, Proprietor. Telephone 2132. 1735 Lawrence St. Denver. Revived Activity in Silver Mines. Leadville—The rapid rise in the price of silver, which has reached the highest point since the panic of 1907, is very satisfactory to mining men as it will enable them, should the ad- vance prove permanent, to greatly in- crease ‘their tonnage of low-grade ore. ‘This applies particularly to lerge bodies of iron oxide and sulphide. Both the Iron-Silver and the Yak mine will be particularly affected. Before any new developments are made, however, mining men prefer to wait, in order to be assured that the ‘dvance has some stability. The in- crease in the price of silver from 50 cents to 56 cents means a difference of several thousand dollars a day to the mine operators, pig ee s ret oJ bees CF See et n/ Article in the Whole State of Colorado “ESTATE OAK HEATER” They’ re everywhere where people want the most for their money— most in service—most in heat and least in fuel cost—do not confuse them with the multitude of Oak Heaters that are minus any known origin—There’s only one kind of ‘Estate Oak Heater’ the prefix is always the same—spelled 6é 99 E-S-T-A-T-E The Geo.

The case in- cludes questions of jurisdicuon of fed- eral courts over state legislation and the proper basis of arriving at the re- muneration guaranteed the railroads under the federal constitution. The ederal Circuit Court held the laws were unremunerative and enjoined their enforcement.

For the sixth successive time, Dr. William Stillman of Albany, N. Y., has been elected president of the Ameri- can Humane Association. The con- vention of 1911 will be held in San Francisco. Julion Ward Howe is dead. Bowed under the weight of her 91 years, the noted philanthropist anu authoress suéeimbed peacefully to an attack of pnuemonia at her summer home at Middletown, R. I. Florida, the Keys and Cuba are be- ing visited by a hurricane, which is doing untold damage to sugar cane and tobacco crops and is causing great anxiety for vessels known to be at sea. Fifty thousand persons, headed by singing choirs instead of. brass bands, paraded through the streets at Pitts- burg Sunday in a remarkable demon- stration against profanity and the growing use of impure language. Senator Jonathan P. Dolliver died at his residence at Fort Dodge, Ia., Fri- day night. His death followed an acute attack of stomach trouble which affected his heart, His physicians an- nounced that his death was directly due to dilation of the heart. Walter Wellman, the five compan- ions and a kitten, who essayed to cross the Atlantic in an airship, failed in the attempt, but their lives were saved. ‘The airship—the giant America—is a battered aerial derelict, abandoned at sea, possibly still in the air, perhaps sunk beneath the waves with her costly eqaipment. When de- serted she had been in the air proba- bly seventy-two hours, a new world’s record for dirigibles aaa, driven by the wind, had traveled doubtless 800 miles. Whether the distance record for dirigibles—870 miles—also will be broken, remains to be compnted. ‘That vital organs and tissues may be removed from the human body and be not only made to live, but to grow, is the startling announcement made by Dr. Alexander Carroll, an investt- gator of the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research at Baltimore. This important medical discovery was con- ceived along lines worked out by Dr. Carroll and under the guidance of Doctors Simon Flexner and Eugene Opie of Johns Hopkins, who are at the head of the Rockefeller Institute of Medical Research. Briefly, Dr. Car- roll’s discovery involves a method for removal from the human body of por- tions of the stomach, blood vessels, skin, bone and practically every other tissue, and making them grow at as lively a rate as they did in the human form to which they belonged. John D. Rockefeller celebrated the opening of the new hospital attached to the Rockefeller Institute for med?- cal research in New York, with an ad- ditional gift of $3,820,000.

Judging from the general tone of Colorado journalism, or that part of it represented by its great metropolitan dailies and their principal contempo raries, Colorado is having a harder, graver time dealing with the ever-recur ring problems of self-government than any other commonwealth in the United States, The seriousness, amounting almost to desperation, with which public matters and conditions are discussed and the calamity pictured as pending in the event of possible occurrences, are enough to make a stranger wonder if an insurrection of some character is brewing in the state. The editorial columns of all of our big dailies, of all political faiths, are burdened with hysterical appeals to either unreasoning partisanship or an inflammed class prejudice. Passionate dissertations on the limitations of the federal constitution or the threatened drift of the nation from its moorings in the effulgent but bewilder- ing light of Colorado's lead, give their pages a hue that would be called saf- fron if the arguments were not so mournful. Each morning's dose of dis- mal warnings and tragic denunciations of persons, propositions or things, is enough to take the hair off the heads of the natives and make other folks laugh at their baldness. These big editors and their big newspapers are too blamed serious. They ought to give Colorado folk more pungent wit, more pointed ridicule and not so much wild-eyed alarm. Colorado is too young to be so sad, and to take upon itself the serious auty of instructing the nation in the selence of government. It may be that our growth makes us a prey of cranks and: theorists, whose control or sup- pression is a real serious problem, but we might better make a circus of them than to stuff the people so full of ideas of their serious importance. ‘A daily reading of the editorial pages of the Denver newspapers is apt to give a good but sensitive citizen a fighting fanatic face, when he ought to look like a mountain daisy. There are lots of humorists in Colorado and it would be a good thing for us all if a liberal share of them would break into journalism and crowd out the grouch grinders and the serious old men who carry the burdens of all the country around on their drooping shoulders, THE DEMOCRATIC DIRECT PRIMARY. ry laws of different brands and fancies hi » several states of the Union during recent ng a majority of the yoters of a state or ele rting their own choice among all announce Direct primary laws of different brands and fancies have been coming into being in the several states of the Union during recent years, with the main idea of giving a majority of the yoters of a state or election district the privilege of asserting their own choice among all announced candidates for office and of minimizing the influence of selfish interests or domineering poli- tictans in forcing certain candidates upon the people. It remained for the Democratic legislature of Colorado to give birth to a measure which, in its over-perfect form, extends to the electorate this original main idea without going to the offensive extreme of depriving the interests and the politicians of their inalienable right to have a legitimate hand in the parentage of the official family, Hereafter conventions will be held to direct the people as to what candidates they may nominate, and to restrict the privileges of the people within such license or limitations as it, the convention, may establish. If this arrangement does not suit the people, then the people of Colorado are ‘a hard lot to be suited; and if it does not satisfy the corporations and poli- ticlans who have so long been compelled to endure popular bombardment, then they must be a shortsighted and ungrateful lot of boneheads. Therein lies the masterful stroke of this new invention of the Democratic legislature of Colorado. It believes that every child should have at least two legal sponsers for its existence, and if the parents cannot agree upon the name: of the child or the manner in which it is to be brought up, that is not the fault of the creator, It would have been too great a job for the people to select their candi- dates from the entire horde of hungry office-seekers which seeks party en- dorsement, so the Democrats have kindly arranged to burden them with only 90 per cent of that responsibility; the conventions will weed out the other 10 per cent of presumptuous aspirants, Among the 90 per cent, the people as well as the corporations and politicians ought to get a fair show, and the 10 per cent laggards will not be important enough to make trouble for either. Of course the people will not bother to control the conventions if they can have their choice among 90 per cent of the candidates for nominations, and the corporations and politicians will haye no quarrel with the people if they can simply continue their control of the conventions. What a wise and happy solution of an enigma which has bothered the solons of every state that has suffered with the eruptive itch of progressiveness! None but a Democratic | legislature would have hit upon such a harmoniously effective panacea, and the wisdom and ingenuity of the Democrats of Colorado will shine through an endless vista of glorious future years. The people will not think of getting tired of paying for this double dose of candy cathartic when they remember the griping malady of which it relleves them. ‘Their expense therefor will be inconsiderable compared with that of the more important but no more beneficial requirements of the coming provisions for direct legislation, the initiative, the referendum and the recall. The glory of the Democratic legis- lature of Colorado can be exceeded only by the pride of the Democratic gov- ernor of Colorado, who called it in extra session to do his and the corpora- tion’s bidding. Universal Peace By BARONESS VON SUTTNER N SPITE of all that has been said and written the public at large is still entertaining false notions as to what the move- ment for universal peice means. ‘The times when no wars are waged are called times of peace. By putting the words “war” and “peace” in juxtaposition people form erroneous impres- sions that the movenient toward universal freedom has for its object to prolong the periods of peace, those periods when cannons are silent. And the means whereby the peace advocates seek to eeanmnliah theists «. how does the public picture them? They are simple: the kind hearted friends of freedom go about preaching to the cruel, quarrelsome, war loving people that it is much better to come to some peaceful understanding than to fight. The advocates of peace, the greater part of the public imagine, go about painting war in as hor- rible a light as possible, hoping by such sentimental descriptions of the horrors of war to prevail upon our war lords to leave the sword in the sheath. ‘The whole object of the peace advocates, in short, consists in turning the people and the governments to kindness and mutual love. They strive to show how much pleasanter, more comfortable, happier and health- ier it is to live in peace than it is to quarrel and fight. War—whether it is being wazed or whether it is Iatent—has from time immemorial been and is at the present day the ruling motive and course of human society. Peace is an interruption and an accident. What the advocates of peace want is precisely to turn the thing around. ‘They want to make peace the ruling course and motive of human society, and war, in 60 far as it ever could arise, to be only an illegal interruption. In our present society, which rests entirely upon a war basis, peace—which is the object all diplomats strive to accomplish, which is the program solemnly prom- ‘ised by all governments, and the ardent desire of all mothers—is main- tained only through expensive war preparations and through the con- structing of fortifications. We peace advocates, however, are not concerned so much with the temporary maintenance of peace—although we prefer such a state to that of open war—but with the enthroning of peace we aim not to retard war ‘but to do away with it entirely by wiping out war as an institution of Auman society The advocates of peace, however, have sufficient historical sense and social philosophical insight to know that an institution which has been at the root of human society for so many thousands of years can- not be made to disappear with one stroke, but, like all other changes in nature and in society, will be brought about gradually and in response to the newly created necessities and standards. ‘The movement for universal peace has in the last few years developed into a science. Sciences never create, plead or force phenomena—they merely observe them and recognize them. ‘The movement toward uni- versal peace Ferries more and more as the world becomes organized, as its separate units begin to unite more closely.) This is a process in harmony with all the laws of nature. of its birth through all the long years of the child’s development unt as a girl, she desires to marry, you cannot help seeing that flirtation hereditary. | Why should we not like to admire nice children? | And why not the sweet girl of sixteen? | And still better the full developed form of a loving mother? Is she not the mother of man? What is the world without her? Would there be love? Flirtation, when kept pure, within the natural borders of the ru¢ ments of civilization, is merely the beginning of love. In this case you might call it the “exercise of life” and there is not ing wrong about it unless one begins to look for it. himeelf, nine times out of ten there are no children. After a few years he will take to watching young and happy mar ried couples out with their children—and where is the fun without them ?—and he will look at his wife and note the difference. Then comes dissatisfaction. ‘The only real happy marriage of this kind I ever knew of was where the woman had so many millions that her age did not count. Get busy, boys, hunt up nice girls younger than yourselves and get married. Never mind the salary. If a girl loves you she will help you to rise in the world. 7% pe Flirting Is Beginning of Family Life Pe aes suche Forbid Man to Marry Old Women eae ainsi” What Such Condition Would Really Mean Dr. Stanley Hall, president of Clark university of Northampton, Mass., in his remarks about flirting, according to the Chicago Daily News, may have spoken a few words too many, but in his principles he is perfectly right and sane. What would this world be without flirt- ing? You might well say that it is the beginning of family life. “Flirting is her- editary,” Dr. Hall says; “it must remain impervious through all time to man’s edict.” If we watch closely motherly love as it is qust given to the child from the time ‘There should be a law forbidding men to marry women much older than them- selves. That “love is a matter of the soul, not of age,” may be true, but when a young man thinks of marrying a woman ten or more years older than himself he is not in love. After marriage he will awake from the “matter of the soul,” but he cannot change the age and a woman ages when a man seems to stand still. It is the duty of every clean-cut young man to marry and raise a family. “A man is but half a man until he has a family.” Should he marry a woman older than NEW COATS Are Now Here --- Awaiting Your Inspec- tion - - - and Our Greatest Pleasure Is in Showing Them to You.

They were talking about a certain man who did not seem to be particularly popular. At last one of the group decided that it was time for him to say something complimentary about the subject of the conversation. "That stepchild of his is a good little feller," he remarked, "and they say that he takes after his father, too." The amount of carbon exhaled from a man lungs each day, if it could be solidified, would equal that in a lump of coal weighing half a ton. Why He Wouldn't Pay. The conductor on a Dorchester car was very hot and tired and his car was so crowded he had hard work collecting the fares; so when he came along and saw a man standing on the running board and a little three-year-old child occupying an end seat near him, he said combatively: You'll have to give me a fare for that little girl." "I'm sorry," said the man calmly, "but I refuse to do it." A heated argument followed, during which the conductor demanded his rights and the man calmly refused. At last the latter said, with a laugh: "One reason why I won't pay for the child is that she is not mine and she is not with me."—Boston Record. With Advantage to Whom?

Dixey at a dinner at Mauquin's. "Thais McGinnis, Thais Endicott, Thais Schmidt—the thing is universal. "Universal and ridiculous; for they who have read Anatole France's story of 'Thais' know that she was a very naughty little girl, indeed. I am quite sure that no real reader of 'Thais' would ever, under any circumstances, consent to be called such a name. "It makes me think of a man who, taking his infant daughter to be baptised, told the clergyman to call her Venus. "But I refuse to call her Venus," said the clergyman, indignantly. "Venus is the name of a pagan goddess." "Well, how about your own girl, Diana?" said the man." "Thank You's." The man who is not thankful for the lessons he learned in adversity didn't learn any. There must be plenty of thankfulness in the world if those who have loved and lost could know just what they have lost. "Why are you giving thanks?

"All my life I have been such a slave to coffee that the very aroma of it was enough to set my nerves quivering. I kept gradually losing my health but I used to say 'Nonsense, it don't hurt me.' "Slowly I was forced to admit the truth and the final result was that my whole nervous force was shattered. "My heart became weak and uncertain in its action and that frightened me. Finally my physician told me, about a year ago, that I must stop drinking coffee or I could never expect to be well again. "I was in despair, for the very thought of the medicines I had tried so many times nauseated me. I thought of Postum but could hardly bring myself to give up the coffee. "Finally I concluded that I owed it to myself to give Postum a trial. So I got a package and carefully followed the directions, and what a delicous, nourishing, rich drink it was! Do you know I found it very easy to shift from coffee to Postum and not mind the change at all? "Almost immediately after I made the change I found myself better, and as the days went by I kept on improving. My nerves grew sound and steady, I slept well and felt strong and well-balanced all the time. "Now I am completely cured, with the old nervousness and sickness all gone. In every way I am well once more." It pays to give up the drink that acts on some like a polson, for health is the greatest fortune one can have.

HOUSE CONTROL VERY DOUBTFUL 15,000 PEOPLE POLLED AND ESTIMATED WOULD INDICATE AN EQUAL DIVISION. 189 EACH CALCULATED 189 EACH CALCULATED THIRTEEN DISTRICTS SO CLOSE THAT OFFICIAL COUNT WILL HAVE TO DECIDE SEATS. New York.—Control of the next House of Representatives hinges upon the result of the fall elections in thirteen districts, and the outcome is likely to be so close in these that the official count will be needed to decide. This prediction is made by an eastern magazine as a result of its confidential canvass of 15,000 of its life subscribers scattered in every section of the United States. Two years ago this magazine in the same way predicted the election of President Taft, its poll of the states agreeing absolutely with the official result, excepting in Missouri which it gave to Bryan. The present poll was compiled from the replies of 15,000 that answered and presents what the publishers beieve to be a fairly accurate nortraval of the sentiment in the country at large. Division Close. The result of the poll indicates that 160 congressional districts are safely Republican; 168 safely Democratic; 29 probably Republican; 21 probably Democratic. This being true, the two parties would be tied with 189 each and on the remaining thirteen districts would hinge control of the House. Colorado is given three Democratic congressmen and Wyoming goes into the Republican column. Colorado Day at Pittsburg Show.

Portland, Ore.—What is believed to have been a plot to dynamite the house of Charles K. Henry, a prominent capitalist and real estate operator of this city has just become known here. The "plant" consisted of six sticks of dynamite, wrapped with about thirty feet of fuse. It was discovered by a workman on Mr. Henry's premises, hidden in a tree about 800 feet distant from the Henry residence. For some reason the workman failed to make known his discovery to Mr. Henry before. Precipitated Into the Drink.

A little girl had been so very naughty that her mother found it necessary to shut her up in a dark closet—in that family, the direct punishment for the worst offense. For 15 minutes the door had been locked without a sound coming from behind it. Not a whimper, not a sniffle. At last the stern but anxious parent unlocked the closet door and peered into the darkness. She could see nothing. "What are you doing in there?" she eried. And then a little voice piped from the blackness: "I thpt on your new dress and I thpt on your new hat, and I'm waiting for more thpt to come to thpt on your new parasol!" History of Red Cross Seal. History of Red Cross Seal. "Charity stamps," first used in Boston in 1862 for the soldiers' relief funds during the Civil war, were the original forerunners of the Red Cross Christmas seal, which will be used this year to bring happiness and cheer to millions. The Delaware Anti-Tuberculosis society in 1907 for the first time in America made use of a stamp for the purpose of getting revenue to fight consumption. In a hastily organized campaign of only three weeks they realized $4,000. The next year, 1908, the American Red Cross conducted the first national tuberculosis stamp campaign. From this sale $135,000 was realized for the anti-tuberculosis movement. In 1909, under many adverse conditions, $250,000 was realized from these stamps. This year the slogan of the tuberculosis fighters and the Red Cross is "A Million for Tuberculosis From Red Cross Seals in 1910." HIS HANDS CRACKED OPEN "I am a man seventy years old. My hands were very sore and cracked open on the insides for over a year with large sores. They would crack open and bleed, itch, burn and ache so that I could not sleep and could do but little work. They were so bad that I could not dress myself in the morning. They would bleed and the blood dropped on the floor. I called on two doctors, but they did me no good. I could get nothing to do any good till I got the Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment. About a year ago my daughter got a cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of Cuticura Ointment and in one week from the time I began to use them my hands were all healed up and they have not been a mite sore since. I would not be without the Cuticura Remedies. "They also cured a bad sore on the hand of one of my neighbor's children, and they think very highly of the Cutchura Remedies. John W. Hasty, So. Efringham, N. H., Mar. 5, and April 11, '09." LIke the Other Kind. It was in a "down east" village that the young man met his sweetheart, a charming country beauty. When he returned to the city he sent her a jar of cold cream to keep her cheeks as fresh as the budding rose. On his next visit he asked her how she liked his little gift. "The taste was very nice," she said, with a rather sickly smile, "but I think that I like the other kind of cream best, dear."—Lippincott's.

Old-Time Office-Seekers and Professional Lobbyists Scarce—Civil Service Law Does Away With Many Abuses. "Office-seekers" no longer "clutter" Washington with each succeeding each succeeding change of administration, a capital correspondent asserts, for it's not the same old Washington that it was in the days before the Civil war. The office-seeker as a type is as extinct in Wash- BANK ington as the dodo is said to be everywhere. Not only is Washington not "cluttered" with office-seekers at any time any more, but the rising generation of young people simply do not know what the old-time type of office-seeker in Washington was like. They used to swarm here, of course, by the thousands, and go broke while waiting for the office that never came, and camp out on the park benches and all that sort of thing, but that is all ancient history. The joke about the chap who comes to Washington at a change of administration to get billeted to the court of St. James, and who, after a long period of hope deferred and unproductive waiting, finally accepts a job juggling waste-paper baskets in one of the departments, is just about as live a joke, in so far as it refers to this town, as the sewing-a-button-on-the-shirt joke is in these days when all men wear collar buttons and don't know what a shirt button looks like. "There are people coming here all the time from all sections of the country to take jobs in the government employ, but they're not office-seekers of the old-time type that existed before the civil service law. They're office-landers. They've got their billets. They've passed their examinations, got their rating papers and, most of them, their appointments, before ever setting foot in Washington. Once in a while, when a man or woman has passed a particularly high examination, he or she comes on to Washington before actually receiving an appointment, having reason to feel pretty secure that the appointment will be forthcoming in due time. And most of these people, too, look around for something to do outside while waiting for their government appointments to materialize. They don't haunt the corridors of the departments, nor clamor at the doors of officials, or sit around hotel lobbies telling their wrongs, because they know just where they stand, have no wrongs and are altogether just as far apart from the old-time typical office-seeker as I am from a Papuan. Change of Administration. "Even when the administrations change there are no clamorous crowds here looking for the higher appointive and unclassified positions—professional place hunters, that is. Men engaged in business or in the professions come here, it is true, at the request of their senators or representatives as often as not when administrations change, to be introduced to the new presidents and to have their claims considered for certain positions; but after a visit or so at the White House these men, unlike the old-time brood of office-seekers, quickly go back to their homes, instead of hanging around the town giving utterance to their walls over the delay in giving them the high-paid work. A Washingtonian doesn't have to be very old to recall the seedy hundreds and even thousands of professional politicians who used to haunt the cheaper Washington hotels and boarding houses, looking for government billets, at all times, whether the administration was in process of changing or not. They'd get away in arrears in their board bills and after long months and often years of waiting their few remaining friends would take them in hand and chip in to send them back to their homes. They hung on around Washington as long as they could, because they hated to go back to their home towns to acknowledge that their big claims hadn't been recognized, but that was what most of them were forced to in the long run. People With Claims. "And in other striking respects the Washington of today is far different even from the Washington of a dozen or twenty years ago. For example, there is no longer any brood of plausible and eloquent people with claims before Congress in Washington, as there were for a good 30 years or more after the war. Some of them were noted characters, usually of a pathetic sort, but many of them, including the women of the lot, were grafters and cheerful workers of the most pronounced description. Some of them had actual claims, with, however, little or no prospect of getting them through and as little reason why they should be put through, but most of them had claims before Congress that were as purely imaginary as they possibly could be. "Some of these female claimants used to hypnotize confiding old boarding house mistresses by narrating tales of the enormous wealth that was bound to come to them eventually from their claims before Congress, and to promise the boarding-house women that they would not only pay them all of the money they owed them, but contribute generously toward the education of their daughters when they grew up, and start their sons in business, and all that sort of thing. Not only that, but they'd solemnly go through the motions of assigning interests in their claims to the people who had trusted them, and thereby gain another long clutch, with tick. There were, of course, plenty of these claimants whose claims were just and had at least a show of going through, but these were in the minority. But the brood of claimants who used to haunt the capitol, and nod and doze in the galleries and button-hole generations of incoming representatives as they strolled through the capitol corridors, have gone from Washington long, long ago. Lobbyists Are Scarce. Lobbyists Are Scarce. “There are no longer hordes of lobbyists at the capitol. It has been so many years since I had a good, square look at a genuine, sure-enough Washington lobbyist that I don't believe I'd know one if he was pointed out to me. The so-called lobbyist of Washington is almost a thing of the past, and none of the old-time lobbying methods now prevail. Those ancient stories about representatives in Congress finding bundles of $1,000 bills in their overcoat pockets upon leaving dinners given by famous lobbyists are still occasionally revived, but everybody who knows which way Pennsylvania avenue runs knows that if ever those yarns had a shadow of truth in them they haven't now. There are influential men coming to Washington all the time, of course, when congress is in session, to represent special interests, as the phrase runs, but there are few, if any, actually resident lobbyists in Washington who devote themselves to lobbying as a steady graft. They wouldn't be endured around the capitol for a minute nowadays, whereas in the old days they used to mingle on free and familiar terms with the national lawmakers, although it was as perfectly well known that they were professional lobbyists as anything could be known. And the black-haired, bold-eyed, sinuously-formed lobbyesses, the potential adventures of the capitol, who used to be so much written about by the very new Washington correspondents and who always appeared in the pages of novels about Washington life—where are they? Well, I never saw any of them, at any time, and I was here long years before the grand army marched in review on Pennsylvania avenue after the close of the gigantic conflict.” MACHINE FOR WASHING MONEY Device Which Scrubs, Disinfects and Irons Bills Soiled by Use Owing to the popular agitation in regard to the filthy condition of much of the paper money in circulation, the treasury department in Washington is now making the experiment of laundering all the grimy bills that are returned by the banks for redemption, says the Bookkeeper. For some time past the department has been redeeming and destroying about $2,000,000 in bills daily, most of them being one and two dollar denominations, and the idea of washing them and returning them to circulation was one of the economies suggested by Charles D. Norton—now secretary to the president—formerly assistant secretary of the treasury. The machine now runs is the invention of Frank B. Churchill. Its method of operation is to take the bills, spread them on a screen and pass them rapidly through a solution of soap and water, which takes off the grime. Another disk then carries them through a strong solution, which acts as a germ destroyer, after which a third bath removes all traces of the other two washes and prepares the bill for the "plater," which is similar in character to the roller used in pressing new money. It is claimed for this machine that, Machine to Wash Money. after the thoroughly cleansed bills have been run through the "plater." they are in almost every respect as good as new, the renovating process not only restoring the original colors of the ink, but also the crispness of new money. Seeking Persons Lost. Although millions of names are collected by the census bureau at every census, it is impossible for the officials to satisfy the requests of many persons, who are under the impression that the bureau is admirably fitted to locate lost persons. Letters are daily pouring in from all parts of the country asking for news of individuals who have deserted their wives and families and who are being searched for by relatives. While the census office is for statistical purposes, the names are not arranged alphabetically, and the labor would be too great in searching for individual names.

The business man was sitting in his office, thinking of starting for home, when a suspicious looking person came in with a leather bag in his hand. "If you don't give me $25," said the visitor, coming at once to the point, "I will drop this on the floor." The business man was cool. "What is in it?" he asked. "Dynamite," was the brief reply. "Drop it!" was the instant command. "My wife told me when I left home this morning to be sure and send up a bag of flour, and I forgot it. I guess it will take just about as much dynamite as you have there to prepare me for the blowing up I'll get when she sees me!" He threw himself back in his chair and waited for the explosion, but it did not come. "I'm a married man myself," said the dynamiter, and quietly slipped out. —Illustrated Bits. Childlike Ignorance. Laura Jean Libbey, discussing in Brooklyn her successful appearance on the stage, said: "I talk in my monologue about love, marriage and the other interests of the heart. On these subjects women, especially young women, are strangely ignorant. "They really make me think, you know, of the little girl who was asked by her teacher: "What can you tell us about Solomon?" "Solomon,' replied the little girl, 'was very fond of animals.' "And how, my dear,' said the teacher, 'do you make that out?" "Because,' answered the little girl, 'the Bible says he had 500 porcupines.'" The Place of Honor. Farmer Hodge was of the good, old-fashioned school, and he always gave a feast to his hands at harvest time. It was harvest time and the feast was about to commence. Giles was the oldest hand and the hostess, with beaming cordiality, motioned him to the seat by her right hand. But Giles remained silently unresponsive. "Come," said the hostess, "don't be bashful, Mr. Giles"—he was just Giles on ordinary occasions—"you've a right to the place of honor, you know." Giles deliberated a moment, then spoke. "Thank you kindly, Mrs. Hodge," he said, "but if it's all the same to you, I'd rather sit opposite this pudden!" He Knew. A small boy brought up by a fire-eating father to hate anything connected with England or the English was consigned recently to eat dinner with the nurse while the family entertained a genuine English lord in the dining room. The grown-ups' meal had come to that "twenty minutes past" stage where conversation halts directly, when a childish treble fell upon the dumb-waiter shaft from the kitchen. This is what the astonished nobleman heard: "Fe, fl, fo, fum, "I smell the blood of an English-mun."—Wasp. Poor Prospects.

The waistcoat is of light blue silk velvet trimmed with the black mousselline de sole and trimmed with a motif of gold embroidery, as is also the girdle, the latter of black liberty. The yoke or gulpe is of white lace. The sleeves are trimmed with the According to Fashion's Present Edict It is Almost Impossible to Overdo It. Surely there never was a time when the economical woman could more gladly bring out from the moth balls all the fur she has inherited and bought. She can have it dipped and combed and put it on every gown that she will wear this winter. The nightgown is almost the only robe that is not fur trimmed, and one would not be surprised to see one appear with an edge of sable at sleeves and them. Sable is in first style for everything. It is used in 15-inch borders on evening wraps, in ten-inch borders on afternoon gowns, and in three-inch borders on ball gowns. On the latter it is combined, or rather held down at intervals, with huge dull red silk roses. One sees it combined with flowers on a great majority of gowns, not for street wear, of course, but for all manner of house occasions. Chinchilla is shown again, but not in dyed marten, sealskin, and dyed otter, as well as its natural condition, is very fashionable and is used on chiffon and satin or tunics and coats. Narrow edges of all the brown furs are run on sleeves and the drapery on the bodice, and one sees it also on tabs that hang from the waist in severe elongated directoire fashion. It is supreme in millinery. Hats for all hours are trimmed with it. Every turban is to have a border of it. Fisher, badger, skunk and grebe are used with lynx, dyed marten, sealskin, and dyed otter. Sealskin is especially smart on hats and the woman who has any of it in good condition can turn it into a high plaited turban and border it with three inches of brown fur; if sable, all the better. If she wants this hat for afternoon wear she can have one rose at the side or front—preferably a huge, dull red one. This black-red tone, which is the color of blood, is very much the fashion in gowns, in wraps and especially in roses. The Paisley Blouse. The craze for Paisley trimmings and borderings which was so marked this past season is by no means over. A rather new form which it will take in the early autumn is a blouse to complete dark blue costumes. Such a blouse will look well with the tailored suit, but can be more effectively treated with a one-piece frock to wear for afternoon or under a long coat. The owner of an old Paisley shawl, partially moth eaten, can get one of these blouses cut on simple semi-tailored lines from the shawl and have enough of the bordering left to introduce a touch of the coloring on the skirt. Roman Scarfs of Wool. If you would make a sensation with your knitting start one of the new Roman scarfs in fine Shetland wool. They are the most fetching things in light, warm wraps that have appeared for many a day. These scarfs are about a yard wide and as long as one likes; from a yard and a half to two yards is the average. They are knit loosely with huge wooden needles, and any one who can knit need not fear to attempt one. The chief beauty lies in the coloring which copies closely the Roman silk scarfs of an eariler generation. The stripes are knit across and are formed of four colors, each outlined on both edges. Alternate stripes of white of varying width. jet and finished at the elbows with turnover cuffs of black liberty. The other blouse is of black silk volle trimmed with bands of jet underneath and silk cord. It is trimmed underneath with a corset of gold embroidery headed by gold lace, these showing through the volle in charming effect. The little guimpe is of white lace. The sleeves are made and trimmed to correspond. Many Methods May Be Employed, and With Care They Will Appear Like New. Messaline ribbons and those of taffeta can be washed in gasoline and cornmeal mixed, if but slightly soiled. Velvet can be cleaned in the same way. Certain ribbons can stand washing in soap and water. Experiment first with a small end. Take a thick suds of white soap and rinse through several soapy waters and a final clear, cool water. Press out most of the moisture between cloths and dry on a crock or press between linen cloths while still damp. Where it is proved that ribbon will not wash without stiffening rinse through gasoline or benzine several times, then wipe dry with a piece of flannel and stretch until dry. Ribbon belting can be stretched tight on a board or the edge of a stationary washstand and scrubbed with a clean nail brush and thick white suds. Keep stretched until dry. Ribbons with picot edges must be carefully pinned into place through each loop if it is to look fresh when finished. Gauze ribbons rarely stand washing, but with care can be freshened by using a little gum arable water. A ROBE GOWN The sketch today allows for little detailed description. It is a robe pattern in embroidered batiste combined with lace. The suggestion is merely to remind readers of the beautiful things to be had at reasonable prices. The wise woman will buy them now, even though she does not make them up until next summer. Novel Hemming Party. A girl who was going to be married varied the usual sewing party by inviting her girl friends to join her in a hemming bee. Towels, napkins, dish towels and tablecloths were hemmed during the afternoon, made pleasant by fruit lemonade and biscuit on the wide porch, and each guest put her own initials in the corner of each article hemmed by her—a charming reminder in days to come. The silver thimble given to each girl on her arrival was kept as a souvenir. Meanwhile the hostess found her linen chest much fuller than at the beginning of her hemming party.
