NEW NOTIONS.

An Associated Pres9 dispatch to the Tribune tells how the British recruiting officers are exerting themselves to Induce the coal miners and the small sized men to enlist. The theory 1b that no class of rpen can create trenches as rapidly as can the miners, and of course smaller men make the better lighters in the trenches thus created. Another statement made by the British "war office has been intrepreted as an invitation to men heretofore rejected as applicants for entrance to the army to make new applications. It remains to be seen how generally the invitation will be accepted.

This war has done more than slaughter men and destroy treasure It has Altered a whole train of ideas relative to the conduct of a great war. It has relegated old theories to the discard and is in process of establishing many new ones. And one theory that appears in process of destruction is that to be a good fighter a man must be an Adonis.

In trench fighting, for Instance, a email man appears to have some adVentages over a large one. Long marches are seldom required under the new dispensation. The days of hardtack and the prime necessity of teeth able to masticate it hajve gone. To an extent, too, not hitherto possible, It has been found possible to give soldiers regular and not Infrequent leaves of f: absence for recuperation away from the strident music of the sheila, fe Physical excellence will never be held amiss, certainly. But this one lesson of the war contains some consolation for those who for one reason or another are not blessed with bodies suitable for illustration on the cover of a physical culture magazine or a cloth-

lng store advertisement.

HEADING THE TICKET.

One expert political canvasser declares in an eastern weekly that Colonel Roosevelt will go into the convention with more pledged delegates than any other candidate. And what convention do you think he refers to? None other than the republican national convention. His surmise will surprise the average reader. Too, It hardly concurs in the colonel's latest political appearance. The other day at the Panama exposition he made it patent that his choice is Governor Johnson, of California, and the colonel tossed the Johnson hat well into the ring.

As far as Governor Johnson is concerned the announcement may mean much or little. It does not necessarily follow that the colonel Intends to back his late running mate in a finish fight carried to the extremes marked by the bolt of 1912. The former president finds it easy to change his base in the face of a political epcigency. The case of Gov. Johnson is ikely to prove no exception. iiS^The announcement is important for other reasons. It serves to remove any lingering doubt as to the intentions of the colonel. Regardless of the fact

that he cut away from the party in 1912, Colonel Roosevelt is now busily engaged in disposing of the republican nomination for next year. The news from California is clear enough warning to convince the most skeptical that CoL Roosevelt Intends to dictate the terms on which he will support the republican ticket in the next campaign. To start with, it is an unmistakable notice to the conservative wing of the republican party to prepare for a fight. It is a repudiation, so far as the colonel is concerned, of the movement for the nomination of such a candidate as Elihu Root.

It appears that the talk of a stampede of bull moose back to the old party fold was decidedly premature.

REFORM BREAKS DOWN.

Those sympathetic spirits who have hailed the commission form of government as the remedy for every municipal ill have received a setback in developments at Nashville, Tenn. Municipal complications there are nearly aa confusing as they are in Terre Haute Nashville has gone Into the hands of a receiver. Commission government as conducted in that city has broken down for the moment.

It is a pecuiar situation. By legislative enactment in Tennessee a single judge is authorized under certain circumstances to remove the government of a city provided it has adoptd the commission form of control, and toes tabllsh a new temporary government in its place. On the face of it, the situa tion seems a curious mixture of home rule and legislative usurpation.

The trouble that has sent the educational center of the south on the rocks is familiar enough. Extravagance and corruption have been too frequent partners in the conduct of municipal government. It is not to be supposed the fact that Nashville was governed by a commission either caused the city's trouble or hastened its culmination.

In the long run the people of a city will have the character of government which they desire and will take the trouble to secure. The form may be important but it is not likely to be the determining factor between honesty and corruption, or even between efficiency and inefficiency, in the conduct of municipal government.

"Due to the demand for powder in Europe," says an exchange, "the price of fireworks has advanced 200 per cent in this country." And owing to the immensely decreased demand for fireworks in this country, the fact doesn't make much, difference.

Sunday, August 1, 1915.

Astrologers read this as an unfortunate day since Mercury and Venus are in places strongly evil in their aspect.

A period of discontent and transition for woman again is foretold. Changes in the character of occupations for those in humble station are predicted.

This is read as an unfavorable rule for courtships and for meeting persons who may awaken romantic interest.

Dealers in fine materials for clothing, milliners, glove sellers, jewelers and all who purvey to the wants of women have the forecast of werious losses. The autumn may be a period of extreme financial stress.

Publishers are warned of danger in the autumn when they may find it difficult to market their wares. The sensational success of a new author will bring fortune to an old firm, however,

Persons whose birthdate it is may have many annoyances in business affairs. Women should restrain an In-: clination to indulge too frequently in amusements and frivolities.

Children born on this day probably will be unusually gifted, but they should be trained to make the most of their powers as they may waste their energies. These subjects of Leo have the sun as principal ruler.

Votes to Make No Change in Tax Bate At Last Meeting of Present Fiscal Year.

Financial reports of the school city showing the expenditures for the fiscal year of 1914-15 occupied most of the time of the board of education Friday night. By a unanimous vote of the four members present, the tax rate of $1.04 will remain unchanged. In order to make the bookkeeping more convenient the poll tax was changed from 49 to 50 cents, but this one cent addi tion was dropped from another itedp, so that the rate would remain the same. Trustee George Greenleaf was the only member absent.

After hearing the financial reports from Albert Allen, business director, the budget which carries appropriations amounting to $450,000 was passed. The budget adopted Friday night was based upon the expenditures in the various departments during the last fiscal year.
