Stridently fearing the president
might place the wrong construction

The Reformed Reformer.
Every one knows there is no re
former like the reformed reformer.
As soon as he experiences contrition
and conversion he' baa no patience
with the perverseness of his former
companions and associates, and at
once insists on revolutionizing the
whole world from the housetops for
fear he may not get all the lime
light that belongs to him.
This Is the sad case of Mayor
"Jim'a" police court clerk, who, on
being nominated for police judge,
has auddenly had his eyes opened to
the terrible conditions that surround
him. From his vantage point in
the police court conning tower he
asserts that "there are dozens of dis
orderly houses, notorious and dis
reputable, within a few blocks of
the police station," and "scores of
others within the business and resi
dence districts, running openly, no
toriously and brazenly without the
slightest effort at concealment." He
adds also that "gambling joints, no
torious In their methods, flourish In
all parts of tho city," and to cap
the climax declared that "if the
,olic are not familiar with their
locations and conditions, thfv are
the only persons in: the city who are
Ignorant"
It seems to as that Mayor "Jim's"
police court clerk must be either
overdrawing the dark picture or
confessing altogether too much. If
he knows all about these disorderly
p'aces, what has he been doing as
police court clerk, under solemn oath
as a public official to obey and en
force the laws of the city and state?
If he has known of these question
able places all the time, presumably
he knew of the particular one occu
pying a building belonging in part
to him. We have had periodic grand
juries, and we have a democratic
county attorney charged with en
forcing the Albert law and the
gambling laws, but whoever heard
of our police court clerk going be
fore them or uttering a peep until
he won in his candidacy for the
democratic nomination for police
judge? For more than two yeara he
has been content to draw two sal
aries, one aa police court clerk and
the other from the city paving con
tractor, which . some believe' is in
violation of the city charter, and has
never once thought of turning re
former. But now is his chance to do
something that will bring an im
mortal name. If the police court
clerk wants to make good on his
oath of office, all he has to do is to
swear out complaints against all
these notorious law-deflers. What is
he waiting for?
Sid We Err with Canada?
.Now that the hope of reciprocity
with Canada has been demolished,
those who felt that such, an arrange
ment was necessary to the fortunes
of this country can see where the
United States possibly made a mis-.
take, not in ' the last congress, nor
during the present administration,
but a good many years ago and a
good many times. Before it at
tained its present state of national
strength and development Canada
recognized the need of closer trade
relations with Its powerful neighbor,
the United States. Time and again
Canada sent representative to
Washington with proposals of such
relations and time and again these
representatives came away rebuffed
and empty-handed.
Finally the Canadians settled
down to the conviction that the best
thing tor them to do was to proceed
with the development of their own
rich resources and work out a na
tional policy as best they could with
out the aid -or co-operation of the
United States. So when President
Taft, the first to put into concrete
form a statement of the supposed
advantage to thia country of reci
procity with Canada, got his proposi
tion in such shape to forward to
Canada for its approval, Canada
promptly vigorously pounces on It
with both' feet and sumps It Into
the ground, from which it is not
likely so (in to rise.
The advantages of reciprocity
with Canada may have been a little
overdrawn, but everybody must ad
mit that close trade relations with
this growing Dominion are not only
desirable, but profitable. Of course,
this talk of the Canadian conserva
tives closing the door against the
United States is foolish, for Canada
will need the United States a great
deal more than we shall need
Canada, after all, and when the first
flush of their decisive victory is
past, the conservatives too will nrob-
ably see the mutual advantage of
keeping the door ajar. .
For Morgan Had Spoken.
The dispatches describing the last
Wall street stock market riot read
like the narrative of so mo Titanic
military conflict. "One of the most
exciting episodes in the history of
Wall street" "Bulls and bears
fought relentlessly." "The men
surged and swayed about the post
and then moved la a struggling mass
across tho floor."
And what was it all about? Had
come gigantic Industry crashed,
bringing dowa la its debris the
ruins of allied Institutions? Nothing
of tho sort No panic or suggestion
of panic; ao ran on a bank nor
thought of it; no new goverament-
pollry declaratloa of tnost control
none of these things had happened.
One man fell to talking and mad
this remark. LaddeaXaliy, U eeas:
The steel corporation has no plana for
either dissolution or disintegration.
"The range of prices In some cases
exceeded six points." For it waa J.
P. Morgan who had spoken. True,
Mr. Morgan had not said much, but
enough to warrant Wall street spec
ulators In twisting his words into a
basis of market manipulation. What
would have happened had Mr. Mor
gan dilated at length on the steel
trust's contempt for governmental
authority, one can only conjecture.
Turkey's Naive Appeal to Sympathy.
The Turkish press complains that
the 'present Italian aggression re
garding Tripoli is the outcome of the
old animosity of Christianity toward
Islam. It goes further and declares,
with special reference to Germany,
France and Russia, that there is no
Justice in Europe; that treaties are
made only .to be broken as instru
ments of deception to gain advan
tage. It comes in. poor grace for Turkey
to set up such argument, especially
to appeal for sympathy on the
ground that Christianity is punish
ing Islamism. Can Turkey deceive
itself enough to imagine that the
world has so soon forgotten Its reign
of . anti-Cbrlstlan atrocities, its
bloody persecutions of Armenians,
its relentless cruelties in the name
of Islam for the extinction in the
Turkish empire of any power that
dared become outspoken or self-assertive
there?
For years students of history have
pointed the warning finger toward
Turkey in the solemn conviction that
unless It turned from its semi-barbarous
course It would pay the pen
alty in national decay or destruction.
It will not do now, no matter what
the immediate provocation may be
between Turkey and Italy, for the
sultan to fall back upon so poorly
improvised a defense as the one his
censored press has set up. Italy
says Its attitude is based on recent
wrongs Italian subjects have suf
fered at the hands of the Ottoman
government. Italy's case will be
heard in the court of world opinion
and If that seems to be a bit biased
against Turkey, let Turkey remem
ber the past and be patient
Kansas Does Itself Proud.
It may be disputable, of course,
whether the majority of Kansans
are for or against Taft. Yet this did
not prevent Kansas, insurgent lead
ers and all, from turning out record
breaking crowds to greet the presi
dent with all- the vim and. cordial
enthusiasm of ardent admirers and
supporters . .. '
That Is highly to the credit and
honor of Kansas. It betrays In the
people of that state the proper re
gard for the high office and the per
son of the chief magistrate of their
land. It sets a wholesome example
in patriotism and civic regard to the
entire country. President Taft, In
one of his Kansas speeches, hit the
nail oa' the head when be said that
many good people may differ with
Kansas folks in their political views,
but they must admire them for
their adherence to principle and
their steadfast devotion to their gov
ernment.
Except for one little brief Incident
that transpired at Hutchinson, Kan
sans permitted not the least .sug
gestion of .political - divergences to
creep Into their entertainment of
tne president. . They made it as
hospitable as If they had endorsed
everything he advocated. Of course.
the president received some pretty
good evidence of hearty support in
Kansas, although the state is never
theless popularly classed as Insur
gent territory.
The Hitchcock-Dennison-World-Herald
combine carried the Third
ward against the commission plan
of government, which may explain
why the hyphenated organ is raising
so much dust tojmake it easy for
the same gang to pile ud a maioritv
there for the democratic ticket in
November.
The churches all over the country
are asked to observe a good roada
Sunday. The preachers may want to
know first whether good roads will
bring more people to church or lure
to pleasure jaunts those who still at
tend regularly.
The first stunt pulled off at the
National Guard encampment is a
stabbing affray between a nrlvaie
and a corporal. Some of those
fighters just cant wait until they
get the common enemy in front of
them.
If tho city hall officials - sre to
have their customary reviewing
stand for Ak-Sar-Ben parades, we
move the appointment of an arbi
trator to whom shall be referred all
disputes over tickets.

Army Gossip
Matters ef Interest Oa ad
Back ot Firing Llae Gleamed
from Army aad Navy Register.
Army Hats and Pone he.
It la expected that the new army
poncho will be Issued to soldiers some
time during November or December.
The new campaign hat will hardly be
ready for use Inside of one year. This
is due to a large supply ot the old style
which Is. on hand, and It la the policy
of the department to use the old hats be
fore Introducing the new one. There Is
no great difference in the appearance ot
the new and old hat, and both can be
worn with the Montana peak.' It Is,
however. In line with the practice of th
quartermaster general to withhold tha
new material until the old Is practically
exhausted. The new campaign hat will
have a five and one-half-inch crown and
a three-inch brim. The brim Is stiff and
the crown has a blocked Montana peak.
Sal of BnffaJo Overcoats.
The quartermaster general of the army
has received many requests for Informa
tion concerning the buffalo overcoats
which are being offered for sale by the
army. It has been decided to place
these coats In lota ot ten In various
cities, Including New York, Philadelphia,
Boston, Chicago and several western
cities, where they will be open to In
spection by those who desire to purchase
them. Bids must be submitted for lots
of from one to ten, and the quarter
master general will award the lots to the
highest bidders. -No bid will be con
sidered that Is not over 325 for each coat.
It haa been decided not to allow on
party 'to purchase more than ten of the
coats.
Shortage In Army Officers.
It Is Interesting to note the fact that at
a time when there seems to ba an un
usual number ef vacant commissions In
the United States arm, there appears
to be a dearth of candidates who desire
commissions In the British army. It la
stated that the English authorities are at
their wits' end to fill existing vacancies.
There seems to be practically no com
petition for cadetshlps and bare qualifica
tion is now generally sufficient to Insure
success. In the English army the pay
of officers of Junior rank Is such that It
may account, In a great measure, for the
shortage, as It Is necessary for cadets to
finance their way through the army col
leges. Infantry Promotion.
The block In promotions of Infantry of
ficers cauaed by delay In setting the court
martial case of First lieutenant Robert
G. Rutherford, Jr., Twenty-fourth infantry
is being cleared up. Up to September
20 forty -nine first lieutenants, above the
place to which Lieutenant Rutherford was
reduced have been promoted or commis
sions directed to be prepared for them,
and fifteen more will be promoted after
Rutherford passes hla examination tor
promoton to a captaincy. Further, ninety
seven second lieutenants have been pro
moted or commissions ordered prepared
for them, and eighten more will be pro
moted when Rutherford pasaes his ex
amination. - Promotions of all qualified
first lieutenants have been directed down
to and Including First Lieutenant W. H.
Johnson Eight Infantry and promotion
are due down to and Including Firat
Lieu tenant. A. L. Brlggs. Promotions of
all qualified second lieutenants have been
directed down to and Including Second
Lieutenant C. L. Davenport, Nineteenth

tenant R. W. Case, C. 8. Donavln,
and A. O. Mlnlok ot the In
fantry, under detail as first lieutenants
of ordnance, have Juat been redet ailed
as captains of ordnance.
New Uniform Order.
Juat before Secretary of War Stlmson
and Major General Wood, Chief of the
General Staff, left Washington to begin
their tour of Inspection In the south and
southwest, there was handed to General
Wood the final draft of the new uniform
order that la soon to go Into effect, and
a copy of which will be made public
when General Wood returns to Wash
ington. Ail that Is necessary now is
the approval of President Taft, which
will be given when he gets back from
his western tour,
Nothing like the new order haa ever
been Issued to the army, and It will be
about the most complete thing of the
kind ever promulgated In any army. It
Is stated that ' the order is so Indexed
that the officer who has occasion to re
fer to It and find out at once what kind
of uniform he ought to wear on any oc.
caslon. At present the post commanders
prescribe when full dress Bhall be worn,
when white trousers are appropriate, the
color of shoes, and whethor a campaign
hat or a cap Is to be worn on formal
and Informal occasions
Under the new order the number of
occasions when full dress Is necessary
have been reduced to a minimum, the
proper number of medals that an officer
should wear la designated, and he la told
where to hang them on his coat. In fact,
the smallest detail of drees for all oc
casions Is given.

CORN FODDER DAYS.
C. L. Edson In Kansas City Star.
The morning glows on marching rows
Of weaxy, tattered corn;
The lantisuape looms with draggled plumes
And garments frayed and torn.
The day of gloom is rising high
When all the cornfield soldiers die.
Scream, ravens, scream, the garish dream
Snail crumble in the breeze:
Stare, red-eyed day, with sickly ray,
o.buve the dogwood tree.
The cringing nymuhs are terror dumb;
The harvest of the corn baa come!
Trail, tangled, ellken sheen ao more,
blue velvet blossom, bleed and die.
For craahing through your bosom's cor.
The oooio hal snuie you hip and thighl
A tear or two of tangled dew
Th mourning year shall weep for you.
The farm boy standa with eager bands
'i hat clasp the bluish blade.
Then right and left the atalk are cleft.
Aud now a wigwam's made.
And like an Inaian phantuy
The mytlc village soon w sea
Each blade stroke stirs th cockle burrs
And crab grass growing by.
While euhoe about "Come out.oom out.
And see th cornfields die!"
And unseen nymph go skipping past
Unhouaed, unheveled, doomed at last!
Stamped hosts of Indian ghosts
And many a vanished chief
Ride raclne; by with battle cry
And never stir a leaf.
And brooding dreams of other days

.nsurgency
is not what you think
Let Senator La Follette stand as the
most fully defined type of insurgent
that we have. La Follette has written
.a history of insurgency;
La Follette 's story, or diary, or autbbi-'
ography,with La Follette in the leading
role, naturally, will run in The Ameri
can Magazine for the greater part of a
year, beginning in October.
You will learn that insurgency is
a broader and more significant move
ment than you have thought. Neither
is it a new thing. The foundations were
laid twenty years ago, and much of it
has already borne fruit.
The political history of the next
presidential , campaign will be better
understood, after reading what La
Follette has to say.
This'noteworthy contribution alone, daring
campaign year, will be more than worth
the price of the entire American Magazine,
good as the rest of it is going to be.
