The announcement that Great Bri- taln, Germany and France recognize the fact that the policy of this coun- ¥y In regard to further influence Mexico should be beiter derstood by them before they pian any action ‘which will embarrass this government in its endeavor to help the Mexican republiz, indicates a course which is not only for the best interests in the sitnation but which is right. No other course ought to be thought of. There can be no idea but what this csuntry is actuated by the highest motives In its Mexicon palicy. hid there should have been any doubts about this, it must have been cleared away by the recent statements by the president concerning the United States and the Latin-American republics It mmst be realized, aside from the posi- tien which this country takes under the Monroe Doctrine, that more can be zained through concerted action, such as would come from standing back of this government in its desire to do the greatest amount of good for Mexico, than would come through any divided movement, The combined European powers are no more anxious to see peace in Mex- co tham is this country ,but upon their attitude depends much as to how sosn it ‘will be optained The possibility of thelr support will bring about only the same pelicy which has always been maintained and intended towards Mexico, but their endorsement of such stmply means that the best 1s planned for, while opposition only serves to create dissension and prolong the undestrable conditions. GETTING EFFICIENCY. When 1t comes to sécuring efficlency n departments of city government the euestion has often been raised as to whether a city should go outside its limits to secure men for such an ac- complishment. Even with some of the mnew forms of charters it has been con- sidered just the thing to do, and that the same degree of qualification and experience should be demanded for making the business of a city a suc- cess, as is considered mecessary by a corporation. In the city pf Ottawa. Canada, with the purpose of bettering the force un- der him in a manner which hg could accomplish In no other way, the chief of police has secured the services of several London policemen, at a larger wage, because of the training received and service which they have seen That dissatisfaction has been caused is but matural by those who believe that home talent is good enough. In suppert of the move the Ottawa Cit- izen comsiders that he “has simply made manifest his determination that efficlency shall exist in his important department. It is a matter for con- gratulation that appointment as police- men in Ottawa is not along lines pre- yalling in many other cities™ The Ottawa chief i3 engaged in a test which is not possible in most citiex. TUpon the outcome will much depend. Tt is bound te be carefully serutinized by the critics as well as the students of efficiency, Whether the experiment is a success rests en- tirely upon the character of the ser- vice rendered, and it is a matter of importance which reaches far beyond the Individuals whe are concerned therein, INCOME TAX ENLIGHTENMENT. It is being realized as the study of the income tax prevision of the new tariff Dili pregresses and the time epproaches for it to go inte ef- fect, that there is need of not a little snlightenment as to Its operations %¥his s not simply confined to the groap of men from whom the tax will Be yeceived, but affects theusends of others Pecause of the “coilection at the seuree” provision. This is causing no lite confusion and lable te eontinne to de so long after it gets into operation. It is net at all surprising therefore that supplem®ntal regula- tions for the collection of the tax are to be issued. Tnless the greatest ef- forts are made to get this revenue coi- lecting properly started it is easy to be seen that a most interesting jumble is likely to result, since few of such taxpayers secure their income all from one source, ‘Whatever is done in the way of reg- siations there is sure to he more or less comfusion, but this does not re- leve the government of doing its part to make 28 plain as possible the oper- ation of the law. There is aiso an pbligation resting upon the taxpaver to profit from whatever light is thrown upon the situation. Amendments to the bill are ready for presentation for the purpose of clearing up this diffi- culty and doing away With a com- alted situation. It will not take long after act becomes effective to de- termine the wisdom of any changes. TIME LOST IN EBDUCATION: As in many other things, quality in education plays as impertant a part as does quantity, and when prominent educators of the ceuntry, after ten years' investigation for< the purpose of arriving at the best system. to follow for the best results, deiclare that there i8 a waste of at leasit twe years in the present plan of Aimerican educa- tion, it furnishes foed for serious con- sideration: They insisk in their report that¢ the present elementary system is teo long and that the ground now covered in eight years can be covered just as efficlently in six, allowing sec- ondary work to begin at the age of twelve. 'This is urged through the selection of the most immportant sub- Jects and the most iraportant toples, making a distinction bétween first and tenth rate facts and principles. They would “confine the pewr¥od of elemen- tary education to masfering the tools of education, Include the last two years of the present e'mentary school in the period of seccindary education and begin the study of foreign lan- gus constructive - geometry, ele- mentary algebra, eledaentary science and history two years earlier than at present. It is the conciusions of the educators that the “great mistaite of our educa- tion is to suppose that quantity and strain constitute education. The col- lege has committed a_grievous mistake in demanding even fnore in quantity than In quality prodiuced under con- ditions of healthy development” The idea of not attemptimg to crowd more into the school year but to relieve it of the non-essentials for the benefit of the more important features of educa- tion is one which campot help but be profitable in creating:a lasting and de- le benefit, GOING iBACK. Some of the prominent leaders of the republican and progressive par- ties are being brought into the state campaigns of New Jersey and Massa- where interesting contests ged thoueh the situations -e much differgat. In. both instanc however it is the spiit in the repub- lican party which oceirred a year ago in June which is proving the most im- portant factor in giving aid to the democratic candidates. This naturally uses much talk about amalgamation e speakers and while it is de- red on one side that it is taking place as figures show, there continues stence from the other that not only not so, but that it never will be. Such are the positions taken by Senator Borah, who followed Roose- as long he could with con- .ncy. and Governor Jobnson, who is still in the Ting. Under the contention that the best results of the progressives among whom he numbers himself and those within the republican ranks. can be obtained from within the old party Senator Borah calls attention to the ent of amalgamation as told rank and file, when he points that ¥ mov by the to the fact that “more than 60 per cent. of them (progressives) have gone back in Michigan; less than ten per cent. remained in the third party in Maine, and just about ten per cent n the test in West Virginia. The vote on an Tilinois judgeship a few days ago disclosed the fact that although they had 00 votes last November they had only 9,060 last Tuesday.” 1ch are the cold facts and they are tative of a well defined ten- ore.

Though Governor Foss nearly wore out the patience of Massachusetts in scoring in the gubernatoria] race, he seems to imagine he is the pole horse. Because of scarcity of clothes a New Jersey woman was sentenced to thirt. days in jail, and yet, the cost of Ity- ing and dress is constantly at top notch, Is 1t pos le that the president’s trip into Alabama had anything to do with the Underwood-Hobson sen- atorial contest?

The value pf slow progress in fog, an active lookout and the wireless report of ice ahead is all foo plainiy portrayed by the escape of the Teu- tonic from the Titanic’s fate through pbedience to tho demands for safety. As the number of those who suc- cumb to the inevitable after mistaking one of the worst poisons for headachs tablets, incredses, by just so much more is the need emphasized of {hrow- ing greater protection about such pos- sibilities and’ overcoming the great lendency to carelessness. 3 “It will be nevel anyway, Glerla bit the end of her silver neil, studying the list of names. “You've left out Stanley, auntle “He is leaving for town tomerrow.” 'The peneil fell with a little ring to the floor, but Mrs. Nesbitt never even raised her frem her book. Gloria stele a sidelong glance at her, There Wwas something very aristocratic about Mrs, Nesbitt's profile and her silvery white hair piled in a coronet on her head. Her complexion was like a child's so fresh and pink, but the lips were where Gloria's eyes rested. Firmly compressed, they gave no hint of what was golng on in her aunt’s mind. Therefore Gloria returned the attack, “But he’s such a dear, and I want him, auntle. It's my last dance before we close Hopedene. And you're going to trot me abroad this winter so I won't see him—" “Don’t you really think you are carrying the affair a bit too far, Gloria, even for a diversion?” “It's not a dlversion,” Gloria's color rose. “I'm very fond of him.” “All the more reason why we should not detain him when he wish- es to leave for town.” “Let me send him an anyway, please:’ “I would rather you did not. Something almost sinister in the tone in_which the words were spoken made Gloria hesitate. She bent over invitation the list of guests for her domino dance, and was silent. It had been a wonderful summer and sall at Hopedene, her aunt’s splendid seaside home at Narragan- sett. Before the house lay the green rolling down to the shore over the downs and the great brown rocks with their clinging, ever-swaying masses of seaweed. had During their strolls Stanley often told her the seaweed always made him think of rippling masses of hair. “Not_drowned hair, Stan,” she had laughed, but with a little shudder. “I don’t know,” he had said mus- ingly, pushing some of it aside with his walking stick. “Perhaps mer- maids’ hair.” It was down there on the rocks she had listened while he told her what she meant to him in his life. Out in the bay towards Newport lay his yacht, clean-lined and low, with a glint of brass here and there under the sunlight. He had named it for her deliberatel; Somehow even the sight of that name on her prow al- ways gave Gloria a thrill. She never forgot the first morning of his arrival. The yacht had cast anchor during the night, directly within range of the morning room windows of Hopdene. Mrs. Nesbitt's first amusement of the day was to scan the bay for new boats with her binoculars. Gloria was trying to read her letters and eat her grapefruit at tne san.¢ time when the glasses were lowered with a half-smothered ejacu- on. “What is it dear?” “Stanley Layton is here” tragically. Gloria bent her head demurely. “He is visiting the Dudley Morsans, auntie.” “Really? Then you probably met him last spring when you took the southern cruise on their yacht?" “Why, 1 thought I told you, dear?” “He is very delightful, Gloria a charming fellow, but positively the most indefinite 1 ever knew.

Every day Stanley managed to see her.

She to wateh him ltved to rail out over the hay with hla on some of his moonlight cruises.

Yet he was Stanley -Layton, a bachelor with plenty of money, plenty of lelsure, plenty of amusement. Why should he, as her aunt told her over and over, why should he look twice at a little Kentucy girl who happened to be blessed with brown eyes and the most golden hair on the beach? The night of the Domino dance, Mrs. Nesbitt told Gloria for the first time what her plans were. “You will accept Harraden tonight, | my dear. He has spoken to me, and, of course I told him everything was most satisfactory. 1 will your mother tomorrow, and you are to be congratulated. e may not be exactly fascinating, but he will make a good husband and be very kind to you.” Gloria fastened on her little satin mask, raging inwardly. She did not even reply. Down the broad staircase she followed Mrs. Nesbitt's stately figure, and took her place beside her at the lower archway in the _hall. Past them streamed the dominoes, every tint and hue imaginable. It seemed to Gloria as though it were a travesty on life, this masking of forms and faces, and the mad whirl ‘Was Stanley among them? She had managed to let him know. but the yacht had not been in the bay that day. Suddenly she noticed one domino that seemed to linger just behind her. Something in the walk drew her at- tention. It was yellow and black. Her own was of rose-colored satin. Just as Mrs. Nesbitt moved away to speak to some one she had recognized the other domino stepped close to her, ang Stanley whispered guickly: “Change dominoes with my She is there in violet.” Gloria’s heart beat fast. In half an' hour they would unmask, and she would be deliberately given into Ferris Harraden's keeping. The violet sister. domino came nearer, and as it pass- | ed she whispered, “Go Into the dress- ing_room.” Five minutes later. the violet dom- ino had vanished from the guests, and also the black and yellow. When the unmasking came, Gloria was missing, and after a hasty interview with Mr. Harraden, it was whispered Gloria had been taken ill, and retired. But out of the bay into” the dark waters of the Atlantic sailed tne yacht, ocean-bound. Katherine Lay- ton had gone below, declaring she would not sit up and dose, chaperon to them any longer. Stanley held his sweetheart close, there in their old favorite nook at the prow. “We'll put in some little place and be married tomorrow, dear heart. Kit is a brick. She's stood me through it all, and says we may take her place down at Isle of Pines for the winter. Are you happy? How fast your heart beats!” Gloria pushed back her hair, wind- blown over his eyes, and pressed her cheek to his as they looked back at the twinkling lights along the bay. “I like to follow the real stars best,” she whispered.—St. Louis Globe- Democrat.

Evervbody knows what Tammany proved about Sulzer. While many of us are inclined to think a great deai more, of Sulzer than of Tammany, the fact remains, none the less, that it was proven that Sulzer wrongfully converted campaign contributions t> his own use.—Bridgeport Telegram, It is no argument to say that a law cannot be enforced and therefore it is useless to epact the law. To admit such nonsense is to admit the futility of self government.

If you ever get to feeting blue about things stop and think what it wiil mean if you keep it up, and then pin your mind so hard on your daily task that there isn't room for another thing in your head.

Waterbury Republican. LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Comptroller “Danny” Dunn. Mr. Editor: A Windham county man must be excused if his chest stick out just a little bit more than ordinary when the names of some of our illus- trious former office holders are men- tioned, for Windham county officials have blazed a trail of dignity, homor and glory since Windham was a coun- ty.
