The postmaster general has al
ready virtuall nullified the or
der placing fourth class post
masters civil service; the con
gress, in framing the income
tax provision of the tariff law,
created from 300 to 400 spec
ial clerkships in the treasury,
with specific provision that
they should not be filed by
civil service, and when the
con ference committee was con
sidering the tariff bill for the
last time some ingenious dem
ocrat slipped in a “joker”
which virtually empowers the
secretary of the treasury to
weed out every republican in
the internal revenue service
apd fill the vacancies without
civil service examination.
Postmaster General Bureson
steadily and rapidly is prying
out of office republican post
masters. In some of the east
ern states he is throwing them
out by wholesale; in other
states, the substitution of
democrats for republicans is
going ahead less rapidly, but
it is Mr. Burleson’s plan, be
fore he retires from office, to
wipe clean the slate of post
masters and to subistute dem
ocrats for repbulicians.
Prof. Carlyle of the Univers
ity of Idaho thinks mutton
from the arid lands of the
west will take the place of
beef uiftil the American farm
er can catch up with the cattle
market. One of the troubles
both with beef and mutton is
that the tendency in recent
years has been to grow cattle
for milk and butter, and sheep
for wool. The demand for
food will compel both to be
grown for meat.

Harry Kemp, “tramp poet,’
is in the arms of the English
law as a stowaway. He had
an “irresistible desire" to see
England. He hid himself a
way in a liner, intending to
travel for nothing. He be
longs to that class of irrespon
sibles who are unable to con
trol their “irresistible desires.”
