Gariield is earnest. The President likes earnest persons. Gartield is ambitious The President likes ambitious per sons. Garfield is conscientious , and the President lays much stock by that. In short , Gar. tjeld is a clean young man , with a mind that grapples with great problems , no matter what the vandup of the encounter may be. He came to Washington as the [ 'resident's friend , and he h.xs never let the Presidint get away from that idea. He is as regular at the White House as a Secretary Lioeb. Any time a great problem presents itself to him , and he gets a tail-hold on it , he rushes breathlessly up to tell the President about it. He darts in and out of the President ' s private oflice half a do/.en times a day , or used to before he went into the Cabinet. His om'ce as Commissioner of Corporations was on Fourteenth Street , only a short distance from the White Z-Iouse. Now he is up at Eighth and F , and it is likely he will not have time to do so much Breathless rushing , unless he gets a new supply of breath. There may be a deep , dark Presidential reason for his transfer based on this ; but why speculate on matters that con cern us not ? Combined with Garfield's earnestness is a caution that he is obliged to pay excess bag- gagt on every time he takes up ? new line. He is so circum spectly cautious that he puts a tag on every thought he has , enters it on the card index and then lays it away to try. He is no adventurer into the fields of nigh emprise. He is no pioneer to blaze his way through pre cedent out into thu open fields of constructive originality. What has happened is good enough for him , and the idea uf making anything happen , off bis own bat , and on the impulse , iSas _ foreign to his nature as I going to Benning's and betting on a horse. He has a man's job before hiir now. The Department of the Interior controls the public domain , the forests , the Indians the patents , the pensions , the Bureau of Education , the GeO' logical Survey and the Reclamation - tion Service. All the land grafters , all the Indian grafters , all the sharks who are trying tc get the timber and the oil and the coal for nothing must come to him and pass under his eye. lie has the last say , and , de. spite his seriousness , there is nobody in Washington whc does not wish him well , lie is following sturdy old Hitchcock , who fought the grafters fet years. He has some bureaus that need overhauling , thai need cleaning , and he says he intends both to overhaul and clean. The President has faitl : in him. Saturday Evening Post.

How J. R. Rose To The Cabinet. Is it possible the President of these United States , to gether with a few outlying , but expensive , possessions , has sunk so low as to use the dim inutive in spunking , even thus casually , of the gallant young man from Cleveland , Ohio , who is striving so hard to keep us on the track ? Is it possible he does not take the Honorable James Rudolph so seriously ts the Honorable James Rudolph takes himself ? If it is , what mercy can any ot us expect ? Where do the common , Or gar den servants ot the people get off ? Still , there must be a good deal in this young man , for he has progressed rapidly under the fostering care of the Presi. dent. He came as Civil Ser vice Commissioner. He was made Chief of the Bureau of Corporations when the Depart , ment of Commerce was organ ised. There ho trailed the Beef Trust to its lair , and there he hounded the Standard Oil Com. pany until it squealed for mercy but could not refain , automatic ally , from raising the price of oil. There he tore through the insurance companies , and there he created 'that masterly com pendium of laws relating to corporations in all States and all countries that so ponder , ously sets forth the statutes for regulating trusts ( so called ) , but which universally fail to re gulate. Then , after they had pried Ethan Allen Hitchcock out of his place at the head of the Interior Department , he went to that mighty seat , to the head of the department that , in point of power and diversified interests , is the greatest in the Government , and there he is to stay until President Roosevelt retires. Saturday EveningPost Packed and Cinched for a Hard Trial. He will be cautious , conserva tive , honest , but he will always have on display a head bowed down with weight ot aresponsi- bility that will put many bulges on that pallid brow. It seems a shame to take a tresh young man , to tear him from the de lights of Cleveland , Ohio , where he was illuminating the law , and load him down like that. They have done it , though have packed him and cinched the pack-ropes. He cannot escape. He must save his portion tion of the country. And he knows it. He knows it , brethren , and , knowing , tells the gasping world. He has a mission , and men with missions must be serious. There is no persiflage about a task that compels a man to be a pillar for the Nation. Cheerful , ness goes out the window when such responsibility comes in the door. Probably there are greater things ahead of him , Still , it would be a real act of friendship for somebody to send him a motto for his private- office wall-a motto reading : "Cheer up , for cherries will soon be ripe.- Saturday Even ing Post.

A good many people believe that to know a lot of contempt ible gossip is to be wise. Delays are dangerous , except in matrimony. The largest house is too small if you are living in it with some one you dislike. Are you wasting a lot of energy - ergy in hating enemies ? It if a foolish thing to do.

Half our bad temper comas through our inability to see the justice of the other side. A young man is a theory ; an old man is a fact. If there is so much enjoyment in flirting , why don't men flirt with their wives ? You probably expect more of a friend than you are willing to give. Market Letter. KnnsiiH City Stock Yards , April 15 , 1907. The cattle market ended last week in fine condition , with a net gain of 10 to 25 cents for the week , beef steers profiting the most. The run for the week was 41,000 head , several thousand greater than during any recent week , but in spite of this there was not sufficient cattle received to go around. Supply today is 11,000 head , market steady to strong , in the face of a big run and lower prices at Chicago. Packers were especially active today , as competion last week from butchers in local towns with in the radius of 150 miles of this point was so keen last week that local killers failed to fill all their orders. No choice cattle have been here for more than a week , top last week 85.'JO. and highest price today S5.S5. Hulk of the steers sell at $5.00 to SS.f.O , cows $2.'JO to S-U.O , heifers $3.f.O . tote to $5.25 , feeders $4. ( > 0 to $5.35. Country grades arc at the extreme high i.otch , and above any recent year at this time. Receipts of this class are moderate , ship ments to the country last week 200 car loads , and the supply is likely to run small for some time , and prices hold up somewhere near the present level. Hog run last week Ivas 58,000 , market fluctuating a good deal but finally closing the week al most steady with close of previ ous week. Run today is S.OOO , market 5 to 7J4 lower , top$6.524 bulk of sales $6.45 to $ ( . .50. Buyers arc more particular as to quality than heretofore , and weight does not always cut the most figure , heavy hogs some times selling near the top. Deal ers look for the run to continue around 60,000 per week for awhile and prices to keep cloic to the $0.50 mark. A year ago prices were 5 to 10 cents below present range. Supply of sheep and lambs lait week was 25,000 head , many thousand short of actual requir- ments of the trade. Packers arc doing eu-rvthing they can tc increase receipts here , their most effective and convincing argu ments baing the payment of re cord prices for desirable stuff. Top lambs brought $8.35 today and bulk of lambs sold at $8.00 or better , ewes sold atf > .00to$6.10 , no wethers or yearlings included in the supply of 8,000 head. Clipped lambs bringclose to$7.00 , The market looks 10 to 15 cents above a week ago. Country buyers paid $7.95 for lambs today depending on the fleece for most of the profit.
