Scarcely had the naessage of the death of the emperor been hed over the wires when it was quickly followed by another that his place had been filled—the crown prince had ascended to the throne. No politi no delegates, tion, no steam roller, no election; just the machinery of the govern- ment revolving ahead without slip- g a cog. And yet we talk of civil- izing Japan sometimes. A suggestion originating with the Pensacola News, that the primary system should be extended to em- brace federal appointive offices, has caused much discussion, pro and con. Really, we do not see, if the primary is the best way to select a governor, a sheriff, or a constable, why it would not also be the best way to sclect a postmaster or other federal officer. The people of the community to be served by the fed- eral appointee should have their wishes consulted, rather than the whim of a few political bosses. The ticighbors and townsmen of the va- rious applicants are the best judges of their respective fitness, characters and deserts, and the primary is the practical way to express their judg- ment.

During the illness and death of Japan's emperor, the attention of the American people has been more at- tracted to this nation than hereto- fore. An account of the manner in which the Japanese cook will prob- ably be of interest to our readers, and we give below a visitor’s impressions of a home in which she visited: “Would you like to see the kitch- en? lh(- wife inquired. “It is very small and very dirty.” “Indeed, we This farmer entertains a few sum- r boarders out in Elizabeth town- me ship.
