Taft and the "System."
Taft's. method of meeting the situa
tion with Aldrlcb lu saddle In the sen
ate and Cannon In the bouse may bare
significance which does not appear
on the surface. Critics are inclined to
think that the president Is too easy
going; or possibly too wily to war
against intrenched power. But be may
be a reformer shooting with a long
bow. ...
Cannon and Aldrlcbnre factors In a
system. They are where they tire and
what they nre because tbe prople have
chosen that it shall be so. Tbe people
responsible might plead that they didn't
mean it To a mind like Tuft's this
argument can have no weight. They
should know what they want and
know bow to get it Cannon and Al
drlcb are representatives regularly cho
sen. Tbe president cannot go behind
tbe returns and look Into the creden
tials of a senator or congressman. If
a "system" thwarts the popular will It
Is for the electorate to sinusb the sys
tem and not ask an overworked execu
tive to save them from themselves.
; Reports from the Panama cannl for
last month Indicate that our men have
been making tbe dirt By while the sun
bines In the dry season.
Tbe opinion of M. Louis Paulban
concerning Americans and the law of
the land is not unprintable, but it is
unmallabie.
Minister Calhoun succeeded in sail
ing for Chjua without being recalled
a single time.
As Roosevelt wait to land until
after tbe house bunting season is over,
his distinction us the mightiest hunter
la safe, t
There'll be a "comet bat" of course,
and wearers must be going some Id
order to keep the tall on the level.
One drawback about an early spring
Is that few take the signs seriously
and get to work. 1
Although Weston has been breaking
all walking records on his bike from
Los Angeles, to ward New York, he's
not timing to be the walking delegate
of the nation simply proving the gen
eral utility of Shunks' mare.
Secretary Balllnger no doubt wel
comes the public forgetfuluess of bis
own troubles brought about by those
of Uncle Joe. ;
Some one is surety keeping tabs on
Panama cauul progress meanwhile, but

Referring particularly to Japan and

The people of this country are well

A Considerate Composer.
It is not always the great conductor
that shines uu a composer, though un-.

occasion Hans Rk-bter was present at

at which the latter performed a long

came to an end Rlchter expressed his

A Slight Mistake. '
An engagement between a handsome
young Philadelphia woman and an im
pecunious young man about town was
suspended several weeks recently be
cause of a slight mistake by a boy in
the florist shop where the young man
was in the. habit of buying blooms for
bis prospective bride. Being in a hur
ry one morning, tbe youug man hasti
ly penciled two cards to tbe florist
One was a brief compliment to bis
sweetheart to go with the flowers, and
the other was directed to tbe florist.
It read, "Do the best you can for 75
cents."
The mistake occurred when this card
was attached to the flowers. Philadel
