Roosevelt has advised placing a Progressive candidate against his son-in-law, Nick Longworth, of , Cincinnati. A wise move on the Colonel's part. Nick was one of the cogs in the recently wreck ed Cox machine and the only thing he ever did to attract attention during his congressional career was to wed Alice Roosevelt. Politically he must be Included in the long list of undesirables now holding down seats in the national house of representatives. He is as reactionary as his father-in-law is Progressive. The Roses Falling. Fred S. Buggie, Republican nominee for elector in the Sixth Indiana district, has announced that if elected he will vote for Roosevelt. The Indiana State convention carefully combed out the electoral ticket and removed every body suspected of loyalty to Roosevelt. Buggie got caught by the Roosevelt swing after the convention had done its work. We learn, too, that the Kansas primary count shows that the Roosevelt electoral candidates were nominated by 34,000, instead of 23,000 as first reported. ' By the time the election gets here, at this rate, there will be as few Taft candidates for electors as there will be constituents willing to vote for them. Washington Times. The Times is mistaken in its statement that Mr. Buggie "got caught by the Roosevelt swing after the convention had done its work." Mr. Buggie was put on the ticket as a Roosevelt elector by the Progressive Republi cans of the Sixth district long before the state convention and Mr. Buggie Has announced he intends to stay "put" Small Borrower's Burden. Railroads In the United States are able to borrow money at 4 or 5 per cent: why shouldn't the farmer and the small homeowner do likewise? He could if he lived in Europe. The American people are gradually learning that this country has an un necessarily cumbersome and wasteful system of making real estate loans on small homes and on farms. The cub torn Is almost universal or making a mortgage loan of five years, duration at 6 per cent per annum or higher, the borrower paying a liberal commission and all incidental expenses. The money Is borrowed from an individual, or from a company which sells the note to one investor and ach

Wanted A New Police System. In a few weeks fall will be here, and then a few weeks later the bleak winter season will be upon us, and those two periods of the year are the open seasons for crime. Last autumn and last winter found the Richmond police force improperly organized to protect the citizens from the depredations of burglars and thi gs after nightfall. Do the police commissioners intend to permit the san e condition of affairs to exist during the rapidly approaching fall and inter? If they do not there should be no time lost in the reorganizat on of the system for policing the city. Richmond has never been a r. ecca for criminals, but the number of crimes committed here grows anmally as the city grows. Notwithstanding this fact the "small town" method of policing the city is maintained. Chief of Police Gormon is a tood officer and he has an efficient force, but he and his men labor under a big handicap. The officers have large beats to patrol, headquirters finds it difficult to keep in close touch with the patrolmen, and en ergency calls cannot be responded to promptly. There is no necessity of increasing the size of the force more than one or two men to improve the local police system. The thing most required is the establishment of rrodern police methods. Not long ago Chief Gormon asked the council to establish a system of lights to be used in summoning officers to headquarters. However, the council harkened to false economy arguments and the chief's petition was tabled. The prevention of one big robbery, a bank for instance, by the use of such signal lights would pay for them for a long term of years, but council could not see it from that point of view. The Richmond police department is also handicapped by the lack of a night reserve force, stationed at headquarters. To make the police system in this city thoroughly efficient such a force must be created. The Palladium has repeatedly urged this and the citizens demand it, but it has been ignored by the police loard. By keeping night reserve men at police headquarters there is no doubt that crime in Richmond covld be reduced considerably and more criminals apprehended. The reserve men, not more than two would be required, would be used exclusively for responding to emergency calls. If a householder detected a burglar attempting an entrance to his home, or a watchman saw a thief breaking into some place of business, an emergency call could be immediate ly answered by the reserve men on motorcycles. In nine cases out of ten the crime could be prevented and in a large number of cases the criminal captured. Under the present system the right sergeant, on receiving an emergency call, must wait until the officer on the beat where the call comes from, reports before he can respond to the call, and the patrolmen report to headquarters once every hour. The police of this city are to be congratulated for performing their duties as well as they have under the handicap which they have shouldered for so many years. Permit them to work under modern police methods, Mr. Commissioners, and they will do much better work.

mortgage loan is a distinct security. In most cases these loans are renewed in whole or In part, involving addition al commissions and expenses. In Europe a vastly different and much more economical system prevails By means of co-operative asso ciations in some countries and great mortgage banks in others, the whol9 body of mortgaged land in a commun ity becomes security for long time bonds twenty years or more and these bonds become a standard security of such high standing that invest ors are glad to take them at a low rate of interest. The individual borrower profits by having no loans to renew, with their burdensome costs; he can pay a small part of the principal each year along with the interest, or may pay the whole sum at specified periods if good fortune blesses him in his Industry. The result is that the investor has a desirable security which he does not have to Investigate or worry over, and the borrower is able to obtain funds at little over half the annual charge that he must pay under the American system. The adaptation of the European sys tems to suit the conditions of the United States is possible. It would save millions of dollars annually, for the small borrowers to spend in im proving their surroundings or in laying aside for use in old age. Kansas jCity Star. Probably another reason why con gress is taking its time In adjourning is because so many of its leaders, both Democratic and Republican, have no desire to "go back home." Tell the Weather Man that the Chautauqua is in town and he automatically pulls down the cold weather lever. The high cost of living has been brought directly home to the Palladium. It will feed for ten days, three times a day, twenty-eight growing and constantly hungry carrier boys, at the Palladium camp at the Chautauqua. We have already discovered that Young America's principle died consists of innumerable varities of pie. Perhaps Miss Virginia Brooks, the West Hammond, Indiana reform leader, can give her Richmond sisters some valuable advice, perfectly adaptable to meet some local conditions, when she speaks at the Chautauqua next Tuesday evening. STOPS SCALP ITCH Dandruff and Every Form of Scalp Disease Cured Quick by Zemo. It is simply wonderful how Zemo goes after dandruff. You rub a little of It in with tips of the fingers. It gets right down into the glands, stimulates them, stops the rich, and makes the head feel fine. No, it isn't sticky! Zemo is a fine, clear, vanishing liquid. You don't have to even wash your hands after using Zemo. And what a wonder it is for eczema, rash, pimples and all skin afflictions. A 25-cent trial bottle at Quigley's drug stores is guaranteed to stop any skin irritation. Zemo is prepared by E. W. Rose Medicine Co., St. Louis, Mo., and ia regularly sold by druggists at $1 a bottle. But to prove what it will do at trifling expense, Zemo Is now put up in 35-cent trial bottles.

NEWS OF THE LABOR WORLD

The cost to the union of the button workers strike at Muscatine, Iowa, which w.as called off. was $79,000. The employes of the government printing bureau at Ottawa, Ont., have received an increase of $1.50 a week. A "lady barbers" union is the very latest addition to the ranks of or ganized labor in San Francisco, Cal. A movement is under way for the establishment of a home for disabled members of the Coopers' International Union. In its work of diminishing the prev alence of disease and mortality the New York State Department of Health has asked the co-operation of labor unions throughout the state. Workingmen of Montreal identified with various local unions have decided to honor the memory of J. A. Rodier, the founder of the Montreal Trades and Labor Council, by erecting a mon - ument.

Railway car men on the Southern ' affiliated with the American Federarailway and allied lines, in conjunc-; tion of Labor, have received in strike tion with other crafts of the system benefits, on the basis of $4 a week a federation, have recently secured a man, an aggregate of $50,050.

Keeps Things Looking New

HONEST ADVICE TO CONSUMPTIVES Somehow there exists a vast amount of scepticism as to the possibility of curing Consumption. We state none but facts, and are sincere in what we assert. The reason we advice all Consumptives to take Eckman's Alterative promptly and faithfully is because we have the reports of many recoveries, one of which follows:

1619 Susquehanna Ave., Phila., Pa. "Gentlemen. "For two years I was afflicted with hemorrhages of the lungs and our family physician advlsed another climate, as to remain would probably be fatal ; however, I remain- j ed and when I recovered sufficiently ; to walk about the house I was left ; with a frightful hacking cough, which no medicine I had taken could alleviate. It wag at this time. March, 1902 that I learned of Eckman's Alterative, j In a short time my cough was gone and I was pronounced 'well' or 'cured.' I am at present in excellent health and feel that as long as I can obtain Eckman's Alterative. I have no fear of Consumption." (Signed) HOWARD L. KLOTZ. Eckman's Alterative is effective in Bronchitis. Asthma, Hay Fever, j Throat and Lung Troubles, and in upbuilding the system. Does not con tain poisons, opiates or habit-forming j drugs.

Ask for booklet telling of recoveries and write to Eckman Laboratory, Philadelphia, Pa., for additional evidence. renewal of their agreement in which a substantial increase in pay and bene ficial working rules were secured. Twelve members of the St. Paul Barbers' Union went to St. Joseph's orphan asylum on a recent Sunday and cut the hair of eighty-eight orphan boys there free of charge, making this sacrifice of their holiday fcr the good of the union and organized labor in general. Steps were taken at a meeting of wireless operators in Hoboken to arI range for the organization of a worldi wide union of wireless telegraphers, 1 and a resolution was passed to put the question of forming such a union to a referendum vote cf all the operators in the world. At the Retail Clerks' International Union convention, recently held in Columbus, O., it was decided to invade Canada and organize it from one end to the other. An army of j men will start out at once with the intention of placing a local union in every town and city in the Dominion. According to the latest returns received by the statistical bureau of the state department of labor, at the end of March there were 2.454 labor organizations in New York State, with a total membership of 497,665. This is a decrease of 6,649, or a little more than 1 per cent since September 30, 1911. Officials of the International Typographical union report an increase of 3,158 members during the lasts year. Number of members on pension roll, 1,038. Total earnings of members during the year, $55,379, 902, an increase over last year of $3,608,234. Average yearly earnings of members $932.04, an ; increase over last year of $17.91 per member. From a report Just issued by Secretary Frank Morrison, of the executive council of the American Federa- . tion of Labor it appears that during ! the first seven months of the current ' fiscal year, members of the federal ; labor and trades unions, which have no International organization, but are

Heart to Heart Talks. By cdwin A.mrc

THE SCHOOL Of LIFE. Life is a school. It begins in the mother's arms and ends on the great graduation day. It has its intermissions. There are the recess and the vacation, but the school : goes on. The curriculum is called "experience." Sometimes the lessons of this school i are hard to learn. Sometimes the tears of the scholars will fall on the pages of the book tbey try to study, but School goes on! Some of the recitations are well done, and some of the lessons we never seem able to learn. As in school life, so in life's school, each must learn for him self, of himself and by himself. Mother and father may bequeath to us money or advice or sympathy, but thev cannot bequeath to us their expe rience. Each of us must learn as father and mother learned lu the same school. Moreover, the scholar In the school of life never gets too old to learn. When he quits learning he quits the school. He must be ready to recite up to the last day Shirkers? Surely. Always there are truants. But. however far they may run away, they must always come back to school and take their punishment. That would be a strange school whl'h had no discipline, no chastisenieut or chastening. Disobedient pupils must be reprimanded, else the school would be anarchy. The teacher in this school never spoils the child by sparing the rod. And then, thank goodness, there are prizes for good behavior and studious habit. The scholar who applies himself will be rewarded. Also the Great Teacher Is kind. When we do our best and fail and look up to teacher, saying, "I tried to learn it. teacher." there Is forgiveness. Then, hurrah for our school! When recess comes let us play and laugh, entering into our diversions with great zest. When school "takes up" and the study period arrives let us cheerfully take up the books. When school ends? Why., for us scholars it will surely end. though the term seems long. And may it be that we shall have learned our lessons well, so that on the great commencement day the Teacher may hand us our diplomas, on which is written. "Well done."
