The clerk looked at him with lit

whispered conversation with a man
evidently higher up and then said
Sorry, but this is prohibition

Mr. Cameron Morrison, of Rocklng-

Anything going on in Rocking

Just getting along nicely suavely
responded Mr.. Morrison.
Nothing unusual to tell about,

Nothing. We are just having
nice time over there. meeting each

engaging in the pleasures of social

Mr.. Morrison who meandered on up

waiting back at the reporter.

Raleigh received the following tele-
gram from Mr.. NJ. F. Imhsen, the
manager of the Hearst campaign:
New York, N. Y. May A.
Hearst has carried eight out of ten
Congressional districts in Chicago.
This insures Illinois to Hearst by
overwhelming majority. Illinois has
been secured by Hearst despite oppo-
sition of local and State Democratic
machines. 1t means that Hearst, If
nominated, would carry Illinois by

To the impartial outsider the Hill
Murphy war wears all the aspects of a
real one, however much or little it
may involve Judge Parker's candi-
dacy, and this feud is growing more
acute as the campaign develops. If
this be so, and there be no check put
to it the differences of the two fac
tons promise to offset the advantage
which the Democrats have looked for
from the Platt-Odell differences. AL
ready Mr.. Murphy's adherents quote
him as saying a few more such poll
teal plumbers as the election of Mey-
er will make a Democratic victory in
New York State impossible. Thus we
may see a situation developed there
that will make New York more than
ever a doubtful State.-Springfield Re-

good idea to send the Kitchin up

ing rag tail ponies" and denounces
the lynching of black brutes in the
South for laying criminal hands on
helpless white women.

able Republican leader in the House,
spoke truly when he declared that our
immense appropriations in peace for
war means that we are inviting the
nations of the earth to attack u.s." and
that 1--WE are striving to dominate po-
the EARTH
1t means also that we are embark
ing upon a colonial policy, which can
not exist without destroying rule by
the consent of the governed. Instead
of believing in the doctrines upon
which our Republic was established,
we seem to be repudiating our glori-
Gus past and to be aping Germany
and England under whose military
system "the individual withers," and
the executive is supreme. We seem to
have adopted the views set forth by
Major Ross, a British army officer,
who has written a book on REPRE-
sentative Government and War; in
which he develops deliberately the
militaristic philosophy to which mill
country, seem to be drifting. The ma
tural antagonism between a represen-
tative Democratic government and a
strong military establishment, educat-
ed into military views of society and
national existence, is clearly and
frankly recognized by this British SOL
der. Assuming as a premise that war
is now and always will be a "stern ne
cessity'' in the struggle for existence
between the races and nations" Major
Ross drives straight to the conclusion
that "a nation, like a man prepared
to fight for his life, must keep itself
in training, and be in readiness to
strip at a moments notice in order to
strike the first decisive blow. Thoughts
of war must be paramount i'm peace
time. All interests must be discarded
which are likely to endanger national
success in war
Major Ross frankly contends that
the best government is a despotic gov
eminent. That advantage of secrecy,
concentration and utter disregard of
popular feeling in military matters and
foreign relations which Russia enjoys
Major Ross is sure cannot appertain
to the military administration of
Great Britain or the United States. 1t
follows according to this military
writer's reasoning, that representative
institutions should be abolished. Why
should we bother any longer with de-
mocracy if "all interests must be dis
carded which are likely to endanger
national success in war;" He demon
strates to the satisfaction of every
reader that, if war is the paramount
thing with a nation, a representative
government is inferior to a despotic
government. If the Roosevelt plan is
to be continued and enlarged, the
usurpation in the Panama affair must
be the precedent for the larger and
unrestrained exercise of despotic pow
err Present eXtravagant appropria-
tons will soon seem very small, order
ing Congress to adjourn by private
direction will give place to more
strenuous Cromwellian proroguing the
legislative department of government,
and the civil rule will be wholly sub
ordinated, except in empty form, to
the military arm.
Are we ready to have the Rough
Rider imitator of the German umper-
or change the character of our gov
eminent, and put the gun above the
man? Must thoughts of war be para
mount in times of peace?''
