WASHINGTON, Aug. 15 It is bow
Beverly ward. Midsummer dullness has
fallen upon the Federal capital but big
officials are streaking out for the at
tractive point by the sea where Presi
r,t Taf hai settled down to strenu
ous golf in the forenoon and strenuous j
automobiling witn juts, xan in mc
ternoon. Every day some one is pack
ing a portfolio for Beverly.
The President wanted a rest. So he

private car. He wanted to rcuperate

in "phvsical training to coaeh him every
morning before breakfast and to, help
him into the best of trim before the
16ng Western journey. He is working
as industriously as a prize fighter not
particularly to keep his weight down
but to get his muscles hard.
Public business, however, encroaches.
TKo Proairtpnt has been successful in
mg those somewhat important officials.
Ambassador T. J. O'Brien, who repre
sents this government at Tokio, made
an appointment to see the President at
Burgess Point quite a while before the
President left Washington. He had
some things to tell about the progress
of events on the other side, of the Pa
cific things that the President wanted
to know.
Other officials are preparing to visit
the President on errands and this will
continue all through the month of Au
gust. Even the vanguard of those who
might be called solely politicians is
passing through Washington and on
North. Col. Cecil Lyon, of Texas, is
one of the first to want to talk politics,
although the President has said from
his summer residence that he is not go
ing to allow any political worries to
cloud his skies while he is on his vaca
tion. Col. Lyon nominally wants to
talk about the President's trip through
Texas in the autumn but in reality
wants to diseuss with him the selection
of Census Supervisors. According to

matters of pressing importance poli

the like. His cabinet officials find they
have business of which the President
should have knowledge and away they
go Beverlyward. Of course the Presi
dent ean not keep them at a distance.
They are' getting a part of his time
between the luncheon hour which
varies from 1 to 2 o'clock and the
start on the automobile ride with Mrs.
Taft.
At least five of the nine members
of the Cabinet have already sought the
President at Burgess Point or are seek

Politics of the Census.
The situation with reference to the
Census Supervisors is somewhat sig
nificant. By that is meant in the South
for there has been no particular friction
or controversy about the appointment
of these officials in other states. All
the northern states have at least one
Republican Senator who will have a
voice in the confirmation of these su
pervisors when the nominations are sub
mitted to the Senate next December,

Secretary of Commerce and Labor
Charles Nagel has also been to see the
President in connection with those same
census appointments ana meiaentaiiy
and the Bepublieans are to have the
census patronage in those, as well as
other northern states.
It will be otherwise in the South.
Out of information gained from months
of study of the Southern situation, the
President has concluded that there is
a line of states, beginning with Mis
souri and extending through Kentucky
and Tennessee to North Carolina, where
the Republicans have good prospects. In
those four states the President has

the President. That made cabinet of
ficial No. 3, who had pressing business.
Mr.fMacVeagh had been commissioned
to look up the names of qualified ex
perts who could serve on the tariff com
mission of five, which the President was
authorized to designate in connection
with the new tariff law. But Secretary
Knox has also been commissioned to
take up some work for the President
the reorganization of the Bureau of Far
Eastern Affairs. Congress appropriated
$100,000 to be used in considerable part
in that reorganization : work. So the
head of the State Department was di
rected to effect the reorganization and
find a suitable man to take charge of
the bureau. Secretary Knox, dividing
his time between Washington and his
summer home at Valley Forge, has been
working out the very important matter
of getting the Far Eastern Bureau on
a good footing. His fellow townsman
and personal friend, Henry Clay Friek,
of Pittsburg, has a beautiful summer
home at Pride's Crossing, just about a
stone's throw from Beverly. He has
invited Secretary Knox to make a visit
there and it is expected in the course
of a few days that Secretarv Knox
will make the Visit and that he will
journey down to Burgess Point, where
the President 's eottage is. and that he
will report about the Far Eastern Bu
reau and also talk over quite a lot of
diplomatic and state department affairs.
Of course it is unlikely that Secre
tary Knox win get awav from Burgess

When your head aehes it not only makes YOTJ unhappy, but it is very apt
to interfere with the pleasure of everyone else around you. One can't be ex

And there is no reed of suffering. Keep a box of
Steams' Headache Wafers
in the house when you are at home carry it in your bag when you travel. That
insures you against the annoyance of headaches your own and other people's.
Stearns' Headache Wafers are as pure aa they look, and the snow-white

leaves your head "clear as a beH."

Missouri, Kentneky, Tennessee and
North Carolina. It is expected that this
privilege will strengthen the Republican
organizations in those states. In the
rest of the South in Virginia, South
Carolina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama,
Mississippi, Louisiana, Arkansas and
Texasthe eensus patronage will be
equally divided between the Republi-
eans and Democrats. This is for the
purpose of encouraging goodwill among
the Southerners who are very sensitive
lest "undesirables" shall have to do
with the enumeration of the population.
The President is thought to have hit
upon a happy plan in that regard but ;
the politicians in the Southern states, ;
where the patronage is to be divided,
will want all the jlums and some of
them will want to carry their protests
to the President.
It is something of a question how
much influence upon a party organiza
tion the census patronage can have. The
supervisors will serve for only about
ten or twelve months and their eompen-;
sation will range from $1500 to 20O0
a year. The larger salaries will be
paid in the larger and more populous
districts. The fixed salary is $1500 with
$1 additional for every thousand popu-
liation enumerated above a certain lim
it. In most of the states the territory '
of the supervisor is co-exten.ive with
the Congressional districts and there the
supervisors will receive hardlv more
than $1500. The work will not be ardu
ous but these men will have opportunity
to get into touch with sentiments and
can perform numerous lit rle services.
In many northern states it is difficult
to obtain men to serve as enumerators.

Sherman was present. Up at the Myopia j men are glad to have the places even

man and Gen. Adelbert Ames, the one
of "Washington and the other of Lowell,
who was a Civil War Major General
and a United States Senator from Mis
sissippi in reconstruction days, have
been putting it all over the President
and Mr. Hammond in the foursomes.
So the President is likely to want to
fix up some arrangement with Secretary
Knox by which he can win a little game
once in a while.
Still another cabinet ofieial is head
ing that way in the person of Secretary
of the Navy Meyer. Tbe fishing season
in Canada ends this week and the Secre
tary can no longr kill salmon sn the
Restagouche. He will get into touch with
important navy reorganization work
as soon as he returns to the states and
will be consulting with the President
forthwith about certain plans he has in
hand.
Even others in officialdom are streak
ing it northward to Bress Point. As
stant Secretary of Commerce and
Labor MeHar? has been ne of them.
He had something to do with th Cen
sus Sopervisorships. The Department
of Commerce and Labor rather than !
the Census Bureau appears to be nam-
for Federal office, which is regarded as
a badge of honor. And for that rea
son the census patronage offers a chanee
to reward some of the patriots who have
borne the heat and the burden of the
day.
From the standpoint of politics and
the President is the political chieftain
of his party there are quite as good
reasons why the Republicans should
have control of the census patronage
in Missouri. Kentucky. Tennessee, and
North Carolina, as in Ohio, Indiana, Ne
braska. Minnesota. Nevada. Montana and
Colorado. The Eepublicans are trying
to get complete control of the govern
ments in the four southern states, just
as they are in the seven northern states
mentioned. There are routterings in the
West. Senator Cummins anI" other in
surgents hav teen raising the banner
of insurgency since Congress adjourned.
If the Pepultlicans 3oe an additional
i state or two there next rear in tbe Con
5 TessioBal and put ernatorial elections or
m tne next i-Tesiaentiai election 1
would be a decided consolation, should
there be a southern state or two to Sop
over into the Republican column.
