Washington, Nov. 28th. Burdened with yers of mom laden ; tradition and held fast in mesne of red tape, the U. S. gorernment ii following a waateful ayitem o( administration which in its mm total dwarfs the extravagences of all history, Gleaned from a thousand leaks, the governmental waste express ed in moDey rewhea a staggering sum. It is known that the commission hag found a large percentage of wasted en ergy and money in every department of the government. Just what the gener al average is has nit yet been struck, but a comparatively small percentage of money waste on the enormoiys busi ness conducted will reach staggering figures in the aggregate. It takes more than a billion dollars a year to run the ordinary affaira of the government. In addition about three billions more paes in and out of the departments. The commission has found that with every movement of these tremendous amounts there is waste, and that wasted efforts involving waste of money has grown up around every function of national administration. Too many false motions in the con duct of the government's business too much use of the hands, and not enough of the head together with the hamper ing of administrative reform by the te nacious hold of archaio methods is said to be at the root of the trouble. For instance, the commission has discovered that no fewer than eighteen intricate and entirely different systems of -bookkeeping are in vogue in the treasury department. This necessitates the same work being done over and over again at a great cost in time and labor. It will recommend that this complex mass be simplified into one system. The Congressional "pork barrel" will come in for the commission's condemnation. The greater part of the annual distri bution of about $60,000,000 in congress- tonal district appropriations is declared to be absolute w.ste, with further waste oecurmg. in the handling of each dortion which the district gets. Condition?, such as senator LaFollette discusses in his autobiography will be gone into in the report. When the Wis eonain senator first went to Congress, the government was renting postal ser vice cars from the railroads for $500, 000 more annually than it would cost to build, equip aud keep the cars in re pair. He declared that w hen he re turned to the senate seventeen years later the same rental was sttll beinir paid, and in spite of his efforts to get a change, the matter is still left to be threshed out in the next Congress. The same conflict of method and in many cases duplication of work that exists with the treasury department has been found throughout. The waste does uct exist in Washington only, but extendi wherever the government sails a ship or baa a task. In some placwa the waste is comparatively trivial, and in others the average is brought np by the exist ence of costs that can be totally elimi nated. In conjunction with th plana of secretary of the navy Meyer to plaee his department on a better bosiMss plane, the commission has workej oat an elaborate report, in which the exec utiv ean find at a clance the neediest details of adnvnistratlon and eliminate them. The simt plan is to be applied to other departanents. Dont say "they haven't got it" till you've tried us. J. S. Basnisht Hdw. Co.

Re quirements For Success in Protecting the Living Pine. The requirements for success in any effort to protect the jiving pine from the destructive attack of the southern pine beetle in the destruction of the southern pine beetle in the bark of the main trunks of the dying infested trees before tbey Vave the bark. This is ac complished fey the adoption of one or more different methods of direct utili zttion of the infested trunks or treat ment at direct expense in cases where the wood can not be utilized, as speci fied in Part IV of this series of articles and in special circular IV sent out from the field station of the Bureau of En tomology at Spartanburg, S. C. The attainment of the best success from the practical application of any of these methods will depend on their adaptation to local conditions and te- quirements for disposing Of the infested timber and strict adherence to certain details which are absolutely necessary to the destruction of the broods. The period in which to locate and mark the trees that are actually infest ed and in which the marked trees should be utilized or treated to kill the broods is between the last of November and the 1st, of the following March but in some cases the period may be extended to the 1st of May. The adoption of the methods of de stroying the brood which in each case is the most economical and effectual can be determined by the owners in each community if they are sufficiently informed on the' essential facts, Detailed advice, recommendations or conclusions as to the most economical and effective method of procedure for any given area should be deferred until certain reliable information' is at hand in regard to the local Condition as to, (a) the character and extent of the in festation, (b) the interest manifested by the people of the community in the value to them of the pine and the im portance bf protecting it aa the source of future revenue, (c.) the assurance of the majority of the owners that con certed action will be taken according to a definite plan and purpose and finally. f a demonstration is desired that local facilities will be offered for its success ful prosecution. If the owners of pine will consider the protection of their timber from tbe standpoint of a common interest and will realize the necessity for concerted action in the control work, success will be assured.

Nov. 28-Oeputy United States Marshal J. B. Jordan died of pneumonia at his home in Cary, this county, after an illness of only a few days; He contracted his fatal sickness on a record-breaking raid of blockade distilleries in Franklin and Durham counties two weeks ago when be and Deputy Colleotor K. W. Merritt cut up five big stills and captured there blockade He bad been in the service as doputy marshal for twelve yeara and was twice desperately wounded, first in New Light section by a blockader, and last, about six years ago, in an unfor tunate mistake encounter between two squads of revenue raiders. There were two raiding parties out in a dangerous section of Chatham county. They met in the darkness and each thought the other was a party of armed blockaders and exchanged shots; with the result that Deputy Jordan was wounded in such manner that his life was despaired of for quite a while. It is thought that his old wounds and permanent constitu tional weakness due .to the wounds made him a victim to the deadly in roads of the pneumonia, which he oth erwise would have thrown off. He was fifty yeara old and leaves a wife and several children. The funeral will be held Sunday'. At the Soldiers' Home Friday there passed away Sidney Salmon, aged sev enty, years, who came to the home seven years sgo from Bear Creek Chai ham county, and was a veteran of Com pany C, Fortieth North Carolina Regi ment Confederate army.

The indications, too, are that there will be auite a lanre increase next vear in the number of fairs, compared with this season's record, and that the stan dard of the fairs will advance very con siderably also. , A charter was issued for the Board of Trade of Edentoo, chartered for the purpose of enlarging the businees inter est of this flourishing Eastern Carolina city.
