NORTH CAROLINIANS AT THE
PIG TROUGH.
washington Starr

There is the very best authority for
stating ex-Representative Cheatham for
the recordership of deeds Of the District
of Columbia. Senator Pritchard has
talked several times with the President
about Cheatham. and the chief executive
has said nothing to the North Carolina
Senator about applying the home rule
policy to this Office. 1t is asserted on ap-
parently fine authority that the Presi-
dent has never considered but two names
for the recordership. A Georgia man
was one Of the men under consideration
and Cheatham was the other. Inas-
much as North Carolina made good
showing in the last campaign, the Presi-
dent considers, it is said, that she is
entitled to the place.
Adjutant General Cowles of North
Carolina, who is backed by the Republi-
cans Of his State for Minister to Greece,
wanted to see the President to-day to let
him know that he (Cowles) rs just the
man this country needs in that country
