Although the present session of the Minnesota legislature is yet young, the public bureau being maintained at the capitol by the Daily Pioneer for the benefit of persons desiring special information relative to the progress of legislation, is proving popular. The Pioneer will continue to furnish this information without cost to all who wish it during the en- tire session. The Pioneer at this time wants to extend an invitation to any of the newspapers on its ex- change list to avail themselves of this bureau. Any information of any kind to be obtained among the legislative records or in the capitol anywhere will be promptly and cheerfully furnished.

The burglar's besetting sin is heed- lessness, The chances are that it was heedlessness that first drove him out of honest employment and made a bur- glar of him. The burglar ransacks a house and carries away a spoon hold- er, a card tray or some other inexpen- sive souvenir of the occasfon, and he overlooks the thousand dollar bill on the dining room table and the/rope.of pearls on the towel rack. This heed- lessness seems to be common to the whole fraternity. We do not know what the experience of other cities is, but in Newark the burglar leaves an astonishing amount of portable wealth behind him fovariably. When he reads on the day after the robbery that he took Mrs. De Stile’s chafing dish and ignored her $500 ruby bracelet beside it or that he upset the Pompleys' dresser drawer to get the revolver and falled to see the government bonds that lay in plain sight on the wash- stand, how he much gnash his teeth and hate himself for neglecting to de- velop his powers of attention and ob- servation in his youth!—Newark News.

UNFAITHFEL TO PEOPLE Florida Member of Upper House Says Secretary of the Interior Has Been Inclined to Place Private Above Public - Interest — Condemne His Methods and His Administration of Land -Office Affairs. Washington, Jan. 20 —Admitting that no question of -criminal guilt has been involved in-the charges against Becretary Ballinger, Senator D, T. Fletcher (Dem., Fla.), a member of the Ballinger-Pinchot investigating committee, addresséd the senate in support of the ‘Purcell resolution de- claring that the:secretary should no longer be retained in office. “Studying the secretary’s own testl- mony -we are pressed to the conclu- slon,” said Mr. Fletcher, “that the re- sponsible functions, the chief powers ing letters which were not read—seem to have been placed on subordinates and -employes. There has been lack- ing the constant presence of a :guid- Ing, directing, forceful head, fully meeting and appreciating the larger responsibilities of the office. “But for a few subordinates who have had experience there would be demoralization in the department and now there appears thousands of cases which have been pending for years yet undisposed of, notwithstanding the appropriation by congress March 14, 1909, of $1,000,000 to bring up-the “work. “The removal of those who have been unwilling to act as fawning sycophants or play the role of- servile underlings at the sacrifice of public interests, the people’s property, the country’s resources, did not meet the trouble or overcome the “difficulties. The trouble was with the head of the department.” In further indictment of the secre- tary he said: Glavis Charges Not Imaginary. “After ccnsidering the whole record we must believe the derelictions men- tioned by Glavis were real, not imag- inary. “That the present secretary of the interior is not the man best fitted for the office he holds. “That his conduct and associations and influences justly aroused sus- picion; that he has been and is in- -clined to favor private interests rather than care for those of the public. “That while -no corruption is-shown- it can scarcely .be said “that -he is gulltless of official wrongdoing of &' nature warranting criticism. “That he was not in sympathy with the advocates of conservation ‘as ‘de- fined by the president and his prede- cessor and by indirection and more or less deception he set about doing that cause serious. injury. “That he has: been unfaithful both to the public, whose property he had endangered, and to the president, who he has deceived. “Secretary Ballinger's methods we cannot approve—they are the ordinary methods of ‘the boss’ in politics. “His administration we cannot en- dorse—it is the form of administration well recognized as of the ‘machine’ stamp. “His standards of official conduct and public duty we must condemn— they are the ideals of the ‘professional politician,’ which lead to traffic in pub- lic office.” Gothic Architecture. . Gothic architecture began about the ninth century after Christ and soon began to spread all over Europe. Its great feature is the pointed arch, and it was at first called the “pointed style.” Most of the glorious old world cathedrals are in the Gothic, and it 18 generally conceded that for religlous purposes no other style of architecture is 80 perfectly suited. It has been said that the first idea of the Gothic was suggested by the interlacing boughs and trunks of the great woods in which German Christianity was formed; hence the name Gothic—New York Ameriean.
