JutU what good it does to have Mr.'Hosg present is hard to figure, because ho is Invariably overruled, set upon and berated by the executive. This week, however, the ; governor Is away for the entire week, along with Treasurer Holm an, ,and Hal Hobs Is on the jobri-but the board cannot; meet ! with .a quorum ab sent. So hi uro even, for Mr. Hojs can accomplish just as much alone a he'oan with the others prpHent- which Is nothing at all. '' In the ssealousnesa for. economy, tthe ' governor proposed , that the state contract with an .outside cor poration for janitor work at. the state j house group .; of : buildings claiming .thereby - a .-considerablo saving would result."' But an audi tor's report made public by Mr. Hoss, showa that instead of saving $22,000 a year, the proposed servlco would, really mean an additional cost to the state of J'J.657.84 over what haa been appropriated for the old system of janitor work. Now the secretary of. state, not the board of control,' Is custodian of state building. under .the law, and the Governor's .invasion of the sec retary's province,' naturally1 arous ed the ire of Mr.' Hoss,' who replies as follows: . It has been rather embar rassing to me to have an offic er ill another department criti cising my 'management. If I. had suggestions as to how the (Governor ' mlpht save some costs in his department, . I be lieve that I , would make my recommendations to him and not to the press. But so-called ,. economy thav adds to the co.Us of my department will not be considered, and there Is a vactt difference "between a saving of $22,000 and an actual expense of several thousand ' dollars.

The man who astonished, dismayed, dominated and Inflamed radio audiences of, many thousands and who at length !was convicted for the use dt language prohibited by the federal radio act, goes to his punishment as Jnglorlously as any chicken thief. . We are not gloating over the fate of the signed wildcat, but merely are pointing out the ineluctlble fact that would-bo martyrs must give proof of their fitless and sincerity, muHt poaseas and suffer for a real can ho, if they would wear the de sirable crown of martyrdom. The sincerity of the following is never greater than the sincerity of the agitato?. . And Robert Gordon Dun can, who once Imagined that the world was his oyster, and that the faithfulness of hl fancied converts would protect hfm in time of need, or at least lend him a garment of heroism, chews a bitter cud of re flection. : They failed hfm.

But presently comes the hook. ! :: Tho Tariff From the bitter attacks upon ! tho American policy of protection! that are made ' both by domestic and foreign critics one would be j led to believe the United States' is the only country in the world that maintains a tariff. Of course the truth is that every commercial country raised a large proportipn of its revenues from duties on Im ports. Here are some illuminat ing facts: , : . ( In 1921) France collected in cuW tom.H revenues a sum estimated at ; 1.5 per cent of the estimated per; capita income of . its people. Ger- many collected 1.8 per cent; Italy, 2.8 per cent: nnd Great Britain, 3; per cent;, while during tho same! year the United States collected from customs seven-tenths of one per cent of the estimated per capita Income of our people'; In other words, (assuming that the tariff is a tax whipli. sometimes It is and sometimes It Is not) the United States levies upon its people only a small part of the burden that is laid upon the people of the so called "free flrade' countries of Hurope. t , , It will help Jo keep our think ing straight in the presence of prevalent discussion of the tariff if we remember these simple facts.
