Furthermore if the time ever comes when an international code can be adopted and approved by the people baék home in each of the several countries there will be the problem of setting up a disintérested and impartial agency of enforcement. The creation of such an agency will require still further Aeros, THE KEY WEST CITIZEN WILL always seek the truth and print it withdit’ fear and without favor; never be afraid to attack wrong or to applaud right; always fight for progress; never be the or- gan or the mouthpiece of any person, clique, faction or class; always do its utmost for the public welfare; never tolerate corruption of injrstice; denounce vice and praise virtue; commend good done by individual or organ- ization; tolerant of others’ rights, views and opinions; print only news that will elevate and not contaminate the reader; never com- promise with principle, THE PIE ‘COUNTER There has been murmuring for some time on the part of Democratic Senators, Congressmen and office-seekers about the slowness of President Roosevelt. in re- placing Republican office-holders \ with Democrats. But the President evidently believes that getting his recovery program under way is of more importance than giving his time to distributing political pie. And To be kind is to be wise—gentlemen are kind. The husband who counts is the one who’has (gctbiets to count.

Of course, there is nothing gained by . displacing a capable official for political reasons, so far as the public is concerned. But, politics being politics, it is unlikely that any marked change in the old system will be made for a good while to come.

CONFEDERATE CABINET The digelillen has been very hard on many # newspaper, but they have one merit —they exist. But that’s about all. While the Confederate government under President Jefferson Davis was in ex- istence only a little more than four years, only one cabinet officer—Stephen R. Mal- lory, secretary of the navy—served throughout the whole period. During the same time there were three secretaries of state, Toombs, Hunter and Benjamin; three seeretaries of the treasury, Memminger, Trenholn and Reagin; six sec- retaries of war, Walker, Benjamin, Ran- | dolph, Smith, Seddon and Breckenridge; two postmasters-general, Ellet and Geagan, and four attorneys-general, Benjamin, Bragg, Watts and Davis.
