Some people viii he mean enough 70
sarN that former chaplains have looked
upon the reporters as past praying for.
Others will assert that while in former
times the pencil wielders were not in
need Of prayer. the personnel Of the
washington corps has -deteriorated to
such an extent that only vigorous sup
plications will save its members. There
may be a shade of truth in both the
cries.
We believe the secret of the prayer
lies in the fact that the chaplain is
blind. If he could only look Upon the
row of bright and happy faces in the
press gallery, he would readily under
stand that the men who own them are
clean, intelligent fellows. True, a
prayer now and then won't hurt any
of them, but in the main, they are
able to see the right without the aid
Of glasses. Most of them are the cream
Of the profession.

THE MORMON BISHOP.
rRichfeld Advocate

(Richfield Advocate
The most important place in an ordi-
nary Utah town is that of the Mormon
bishop He is not only the spiritual
leader of his ward, but he is supposed
to be the leading promoter of all in
dustries, the chief advocate of i'm
provements in agriculture and irriga
ton, overseer of the public amusements
of his people and the leader in all
public charities. If two men have a
business difficulty, he is usually the
adjudicator. The planting of new or
chards, the digging of new canals. the
building of new roads. are usually
managed and conducted by him. The
waywaro. youth if taken in time by
him can often be turned from gam
bling and drink. In no other local
leader in the world is level-headedness
energy and innate goodness SO needed
as in the Utah bishop.

ALL HAD HUMBLE STARTS.
Men Who Control American Drama
Rose From Small Beginnings.


(New York Worldl
No royal road has led to the success
Of the men who now occupy the COM
manding positions in the business side
of the American drama.
The story Of their rise to wealth and
influence is in almost every instance
one Of triumph over disadvantages, the
secret of which is business acumen
coupled with the rare faculty of per
ceiving far IN advance the trend of
popular taste and satisfying it prompt
ly and ingeniously.
There has been nothing spectacular
in their careers. They have been con-
tent to sit quietly behind their desks,
leaving the glamour OF the footlights
and public applause to the actors
whose fat salaries they pay.
Unfortunately for the cause of the
drama, their service has been in the
interest of mammon, not art. Their
business has been to make dollars out
of the stage.
1t was only in the early eighties that
Charles Frohman, now the acknoWl-
edged ruler of the American theatrical
world was the obscure advance agent
of Collender's Minstrel troupe on the
Pacific coast. When occasion demand
ed he even footed the trombone in the
minstrel band. He crossed the CONT
nent, started a small booking Office
and from that moment his progress
has been steadily upward.
Abraham Erlanger. the S25, 900 a year
manager of the theatrical syndicate
and one of its most powerful members,
was once an usher in the Euclid ave-
nue. opera house in Cleveland. He came
to New York. formed a partnership
in a dramatic agency with Marc Klaw.
who was a Louisville newspaper re-
porter, and now he controls the great
est chain Of playhouses in the world.

EDITOR GOLD LEAF:-North Caro-

easily honor themselves in honoring
l.. S. Oyerman. of Rowan, as United

ter counties, of the East and West,
will bear in mind that Rowan's grand
est and most honored son, honored as
defined by the scholarly Cicero, by
current appreciation of good men.
Those capable of administering true
praise, they themselves being praise
worthy. being illustriously good in
the main as well as circuitous paths
to honor. Honored like the ancient
Athenians, that while in the midst of
their glory, paused to erect mem o.
rial statue to the illustrious Esop,
the famous fable writer. placing q
slave on it's pedestal, that all Athen-
ians in passing by might see that the
way to honor was open TO all
Everything grand. glorious, mag.
unanimous and honorable in the grand
and eloquent l.. S. Overman, of Rowan
county. Hence we are suggesting
MIN as candidate for United States
Senator. and we doubt if North Caro-.
lima from her earliest history dating
back to Revolutionary times. has had
one son in her political history who
has rendered more efficient service to
his county. his district or his State
than has l.. 5. Overman. Ever ready
in his devotion TO duty. whether
county, district or State. ripe in legal
lore, thoroughly qualified, brilliantly
equipped for Senatorial duties, he
richly deserves the highest honors a,
the hands of his people. He. with
our illustrious Simmons at Washing

years, yes, more, and feel that hel
anchorage is strong, her mooring:

SING A SONG.
BY r.. M'CLAIN FIELDS O..

If you'll sing a song as you 90 along
In the face Of tile real or fancied wrong.
In spite of the doubt if you'll fight 1t our,
Aud show heart that Is brave and stout,
If You'll laugh at the jeers and refuse The
tears,
You'll force the ever reluctant cheers
That the world denies when a coward
cries,
TO give to the man who bravely tries
And you'll win success with little song
If you'll sing the song as you go along.
If you'll sing song as you plod along,
You'll find that the busy, rushing throng
Will catch the strain Of the glad refrain;
That the sun will follow the binding
rain;
That the clouds will fly from the black
ened sky;
That the clouds will come out by and b..
And you'll make new friends, till hope
descends
From where the placid rainbow bends.
And all because of little song
II you'll sing song as you I lod along.
If You'll sing a song as you trudge along,
You'll see that the singing makes you
strong,
And the heavy load and the rugged road
And the sting and the stripe OF the toftu-
rOu5 gOad
Will soar with the note that you set afioat
That the beam will change to thrilling
mote;
That the world is bad when you were sad
And bright and beautiful when you re glad
That ali YOU need is a little song
If you'll sing the song as you trudge along

1t is not at all surprising that the
rank and file of the Republican party
are growing monstrous tired Of
Senator Pritchard and his way of do
ing business. Republican voters are
looked upon by the Senator as mere
cattle to be handled at will. They
are not consulted and have little Or
no hand in the selection of candidates
The business of the party is dictated
by the boss and the voter is expected
to come to the scratch and do the
voting Candidates are named by
the boss and the delegates to the
conventions are called together to
make them feel that they really had
something to do with naming candi-
dates. No man, no matter how
worthy he is, can get nomination
unless he finds favor with Pritchard
or some one who holds Federal ob.
Republican voters all over the cOun-
try are finding this to be the exact
status OF affairs in this State and
they are getting enough. Many of
them will stand it no longer. They
are ready to declare independence
and throw off the yoke which has
long been upon their necks.

THE PRIMARY FAVORED.
We favor making all nominations
BY our party for State and district
Offices by primaries, and the State
Executive Committee is hereby in
structed to formulate a system to
regulate primary nominations Tor
United States Senator and all State
and District nominations, and we de-
mand the enactment by the General
Assembly of appropriate Legislation
for the regulation of such primaries
so that an oath shall not be required
of anv voter in such primaries; that
the State Executive is instructed to
call at such time as they may think
wise a primary to nominate United
States Senator to succeed Senator
Pritchard. but such primary shall
not be held on the day OF the general
election.
Three members of the committee

nestly favored the following as part
OF the PLATFORM: The Supreme Court
having recently decided that the
school fund is required by the Con-
stitution to be apportioned between
the races per capita, it is apparent
that a much longer school term will
result to the negro than the white
race under such apportionment, and
we therefore demand such Legislative
action as will insure more eGulta-
bic apportionment Of the said fund
between the two races.
The other mem bers OF the commit
tee being personally in favor Of the

opinion that the matter ought to be
