11 THE SUNDAV 6rEGOXIA PORTXAyP, NOVEMBER 21, 1903. MERIT- WILL-COUNT Postmaster's Plan Offsets Penalty System. WAY OPENED TO AMBITIOUS TJeward Would Be Earnable by Those Who Wave Been Set Back, and Service Improved. Young Believes. , Plans for rewarding merit In PostoHice employes, thus offsetting the present eys- tem of demerits only, have been prepared carefully by Postmaster Young, '-who will forward tbeia to Washington and ask for authority to adopt them. The present system, Mr. oung declares, is like that provided for prisoners, and operate to make men work through fear of punishment Instead of holding out to them promises of reward lor improve ment. Postmaster Toung has worked out his plan with the aid of the oldest and moat experienced men In the local office, and lie Is confident that It will result In better work, on the part of the men under his direction, and thus be a saving for the Government by avoiding In many cases the necessity for employing extra men for extra work. In his letter to the Fostofflce Depart ment Mr. Tours asks for permission at first simnlv to try his plans, and to make any such improvements later as may be suggested during tne iriai. 11 his plans are adopted by the Government, all the large postofflcea In the country. It Is believed, will follow the example. Penalties Only Xowr Vsed. Various postmasters of first-class offices have tried to find a plan tnat wouia do an Improvement on thirt already In opera tion, but none of thoso submitted has proved satisfactory thus far. The present system of enforcing disci pline in the postolTlces is based upon de merits plac?d aga'nst employe by those in authority oveP them. When BOO de merits have been attained by any em ploye, his salary is lowered l0 a year, and 7."o demerite mean his dismissal from the service. No reward offered for excep tionally good work, and as a result,- Mr. Young declares, the tendency is toward machine work, consuming only energy enough to avoid demerits. Mr. Young's plan, does not abolish the demerit system, but adds to it a merit system, by which employes can regain standings lost by demerits. In addition to being credited for good work in periodic tests, the postoffice employes, under the plan prepared by Mr. Young, will be credited for good deport ment and work performed in addition to the regular eight-hour task. The de merits an employe may get through care lessness or through an improper act may thus be overcome and removed from the records, and promotion may also result by raising the men to better grades with: higher salaries as reward for credits granted. One-ManTower- Limited.. .... - One 'fault Mr Young has found in the present system is the power it gives to the superintendent of any department to demerit a man for .personal reasons, and ultimately to drop him from the service. The new plan provides for teets and other methods for credits which the superin tendent will not have the power to regu late, - Thus It Is expected that politics will be further eliminated from the post office. The demerit system. Mr. Young declares. Is opposed by the larger number of postmasters in the country, and few conform strictly to i provisions. A few -weeks ago. to give the demerit system a more thorough test. Mr. Young began to enforce it to the letter. It was found to Improve the aervlec. but It arouned much opposition among the men. So bitterly Is it opposed by the letter carriers that they have begun to prepare formal protests against Its continuance. Thev have been kept In the dark con cerning the new plan. The method of determining the effici ency of each man will consist of grading his work on-a standard of 100, the. best men in each department being used as the standard-'of perfection.

RAIL-WAT NEITHER OPPOSES NOR FAVORS BROADWAY. General Manager O'Brien Tells Com mittees From Push Clubs of Line's Attitude. Members of a committee, representing East Side Push CluDs and advocating the Immediate construction of the Broadway bridge, yesterday called on J. P. O'Brien, general manager of .the Harrlman lines, only to find that official Incensed at their assertions that the Harrlman interests were opposing the building of the high bridge. Mr. O'Brien flatly Informed the mem bers of the committee that the represent atives of the Harriman roads had not and were not doing anything to obstruct the Improvement. He referred his callers to a letter he had written to them nearly a month- ago, in which he assured them that the railroad company was not op posed, the additional bridge., but would not take anyr-parMn the-e,ontroversy be tween the advocates- of the bridge and those resisting the Improvement. Mr. O'Brien further informed the members-of the committee that the raiiroad company saw no reason why U should change -its position and would maintain a strictly neutral attitude as to the pend ing litigation concerning the. bridge. "I am willing to accept and do accept the statement of Mr. O'Brien that the railroad company Is not opposing the building of the Broadway bridge." said M. G. Munly, following the conference. "No member of- the bridge committee made the statement that. Mr. Kiernan, In seeking to enjoin the construction bf the Broadway bridge, was acting in the ca pacity of agent for the O. R. & N. Mem bers of the committee did say, however, that the Impression is abroad that Mr. Kiernan Is associated with men who are connected with the railroad company. Certain facts and developments elnce last June have given the foundation for these impressions. The committee Individually or collectively cannot be held responsible for theee Impressions any more than can Mr. O'Brien. .- "The committee called on Mayor "Simon later in the day. and requested him to lend his Influence towards bringing about some compromise between those oppos ing the Broadway bridge and those, advo cating this Improvement as a public ne cessity. . The Mayor took the position that it was not within his Jurisdiction to take any hand in the controversy aa it now exists. We were disappointed not to Interest either Mr. O'Brien or Mayor Simon In our campaign. Our purpose In calling on both of these gentlemen was for conciliating Interests rather than arousing antipathies against the railroad company." POLICESEEKBROTHER MAN STRUCK DOWX IX QUARREL LATER DIES. Assailant Flees, and Coroner's Jury Recommends That Grand Jury Further Probe Mystery. As a result of the Inquest held over the body of James MacLinden. who died un der mysterious circumstances Wednesday afternoon. Ownie MacLinden, his brother, with whom he engaged in a quarrel in which several blows were struck. Is now being sought by the polite as a fratricide. After pondering over the testimony ad duced at the Inquest held Thursday after noon, the Coroner's Jury recommended that a further investigation be made by the grand jury. According to the testimony given by several of the witnesses before the Coro ner's Jury, the brothers became Involved in a quarrel and Ownie struck James three stunning blows with a picket he wrenched from a fence at their home at 398 Thompson street Tuesday evening. Several hours afterward James lapsed into unconsciousness and died. The body was removed to the morgue. The post mortem examination held had a tendency to show that death resulted from heart failure, probably superinduced by the excitement of the fight with his brother. The police Immediately detailed Detec tives Craddock and Mallet to the case and a search was begun for the bellig erent brother. No trace had been se cured of him up to a late hour last night. Relatives assert that the fugitive fled Immediately after their quarrel and has not been ' seen since; ELLIS INSPECTS ASTORIA Spends Day Looking Over Harbor and Jetty Work. , i . . - . ... .

Congressman Ellis arrived here at noon today and after being entertained at luncheon by the officers of the Cbam iber of Commerce was taken on the - i i Uharcoai tne Great Absorbent Absorbs and Removes Stomach and Intestinal Gases and Makes the Breath Pure. -The able researches of Dr. Stenhouse, published about the middle of the last century, excited considerable interest In charcoal and Its wonderful' ab sorbing powers. His experiments were directed' to the deodorizing, as Well as the absorbing qualities of charcoal, and he succeeded .In proving beyond all ques tion or doubt, that its properties of de stroying 'the-, offensive odors of putrid vegetable and animal matter,' depended not-alone, upon Its antiseptic-power, as v, ,i v. ..,-......-..! w. .unnMuiil theretofore. unu 'J ' ' ' (tciitiauj - -(..--. hut also on its quality of absorbing and oxidizing effluvia -or noxious exnaiaciuuo from the putrefying matters. .

It. may be added here that animal charcoal, which Is employed so extenslveiyas a decolor izing agent, is very Inferior to wood charcoal as an absorbent and deodorant. Stuart's Charcoal Lozenges are com posed of charcoal made from the finest willow wood, the Very best of all woods that can be used( for thls purpose." ' The addition of pure honey to thape lozenges renders them so palatable thfltno one can possibly object to -their taste. When they are taken into the stomach they do not lie "Inert and inactive, but got busy at once' Jn the good -work of absorbing and oxidizing all ' foul gases, destroying disease germs, preventing the further formation of gases, stopping .fer mentation, flatulence and decomposing of food, and cleansing . the stomach ;wails of catarrhal mucus. ' Stuart's Charcoal' Lozenges are intro duced into -the system by being allowed to dissolve slowly irt the mouth, where their cleansing action begins, rendering the breath pure and ' sweet, destroying any germs existing in the mouth, and removing tartar from the teeth. Call up your druggist over the phone, and ask him his opinion of the power of charcoal as a stomach cleanser, gas absorbent and breath purifier; then re quest him to send you a box of Stuart's Charcoal Lozengus for 26 cents.

COGS GRIND HIS LIFE OUT Engineer Caught In Whirling Ma chinery, Stoical Cntil Death. Entangled, in some manner, yet un explained, Albert Schneider, a young engineer employed at the Barber As phalt Company's plant, was drawn into a whirling shafting yesterday morning. When the machinery was stopped and the man was released, both arms and legs were broken, while his body was covered with contusions. Although hurried to the Good Samar itan Hospital and operated on by Dr. Holcomb, Schneider died early yester day afternoon from shock. Schneider saw that some ateampiping aloft was being endangered by the knocking of a continuous bucket cable. He went up to make necessary repairs, and from that moment no One has the slightest Idea where he was until the grinding of the machinery told of his predicament. He .was caught, between "cogs and whirled over and over at a frightful speed. Those who saw it wondered that death was not instan taneous. At the hospital it was first' believed the man had a chance of recovery, .for he was conscious, and' with the' grit of a stoic uttered hardly a moan until put under anaesthesia Schneider had worked up from the bottom. He has no relatives In Port land. His parents live In Minnesota and he has an uncle in Belllngham. ! He lived at the New Ferry Hotel, S17 River street. . Debating Team Chosen. C9TTAGB GROVE.

John Rossi, an ex-convict burglar, known to the police from coast to' coast as "Good-a-bye John." was also taken by the de tectives when they captured Peterson, in a rooming-house at 82 North Second street.

After undergoing an administration of MOST PEOPLE DO CAUSE OF Does human health depend on one organ alone? This question is becom ing widely discussed since L. T. Cooper first "advanced his theory that the stomach is the true seat of Jife and all health dependent upon it. Mr. Cooper, who has met with re markable success in the sale of his new medicine, believes that the stom ach is responsible for most sickness, and that this organ is weak in the present generation: While discussing this theory recently, he said: ' "I am asked time and again to tell why my medicine has made such a record wherever I have introduced it. My answer always is "because it restores the stomach to normal condition." No one will deny that today there are more half-sick men and women than erer before. Nothing- critical seems to be the matter with them. They ar Just half-sick most of the time.

He. Incriminated no one In his operations. He said boastfully that he was "no cow ard, and could work alone."

In all that time I did not eat a meal to enjoy it. No matter what I ate, it caused me suffering and distress. The pain from indigestion was terrible. I lost In strength and flesh, and was unable to find relief. I suffered night and day, was robbed of my sleep and rest, and arose in the morning feeling as tired as when I went to bed. "I became all run down, and' was dragging out a miserable existence. I derived no -benefit whatever from any medicine I took, and had come to the conclusion that nothing would help me. Several months ago I was induced to give the Cooper remedies a trial and began by taking Cooper's New Discov ery. Its remarkable effect surprised me. Before I had taken all of the. first bottle I felt wonderfully improved. "In a short time the .pain and dis tress had left me, my appetite was good, my bowels were in splendid con dition and I got up in the morning feeling rested and refreshed.
