ATLANTIC CITY, Dec. 13:-May-

to building a great dykek and let the

calls the failure to bring forward in
the Revisal Of 1905 the other sec
tions OF chap. $50, Acts OF 1901.
1t looks as If the next legislature
will have to appoint a commission
to revise the Revisal of 1905 and
correct the mistakes made by the
Commission which undertook TO
prepare code Of laws Of the State
up to that date.
There is no matter with which the

there is no law in this State prohib-
iting such combinations or punish

This is only another chapter OF
the legislative bungling done by the

said was the best they had in their
box when they were trying to elect

above mentioned ia all the more Sc
rious because the Democrats made
such boog-a-boo about trusts and
tried to make the impression that
they were the only folks who were
against the trusts. If there were
nothing in the way of trusts except
Democratic legislation, they would
have fair sailing in this country

MR.. ROOSEVELT AS A SENATOR.
But VIII He Retire as President in 1900

But VIII He Retire as President in 1909
According to Washington dis
patch, it is Mr.. Roosevelt's ambi-
ton to become Senator from New
York after his retirement from the
White House in 1909. Technically,
Mr.. Platt's term expires March 4,
1909. Would Mr.. Roosevelt be as
free in the clustered air Of the SEN
ate chamber as in the House
Would he not be cabined, cribbed,
confined? Who knows? The free
man stands a better chance there
than in the House, where you don't
amount to much, unless you are the
Speaker or member of the Com
mittee on Rules. Even the Old Man
Eloquent might have hard shedding
in the House nowadays. But it is
unnecessary to worry about Mr..
Roosevelt's future nor can we have
time to worry much about it. When
he loses his present job, he may like
to 90 abroad to strange countries for
to see and to meet the sovereigns
and statesmen whom he keeps
a-guessing. Finally, so long as he
has a voice, a pen and gun, he will
keep healthy and happy and not let
the public burst in ignorance Of his
opinions, whether he has an Office or
has none.

"NOrth Carolina is awakening

tor. "The eastern part of the State
seems to have caught on the idea
and spirit Of development Of the
western end, and the entire State is
enjoying the greatest era of pros
perity in her history. The farmers
are diversifying their crops, are en-
gaging in haymaking and cattle rails
ing, and her resources along manu-
featuring lines are receiving atteu-
ton.

placed a great many men on their
feet, and the State is bustling with
activity.

worn out with cotton, and I have

Washington Post.
Fl. S. Powell. OF New York. who
has made several trips 10 the 18th
mus, and who has recently returned
from one Of these journeys, In which
he went over the ground from Pan
anna to Colon, at the New Willard
last night said the labor question
on the isthmus would solve Itself
with the introduction Of labor-saving
and modern machinery, which the
commission il installing as rapidly
as possible.
az believe more men are being
employed on the isthmus now, that
is, more unskilled labor, than will
be employed at any time in the flu
ture," said Mr. Powell. ain short
time there will be fully 100 steam
shovels at work, and every one of
these will do away with the work Of
many men with the shovel and the
pick. The engineer and fireman and
derrick man of each shovel Il q
skilled man. Each shovel will
need probably one or two rousta-
bouts. On the dirt trains the engi-
neer and fireman and brakeman are
skilled men, and each train will re.
quire probably half dozen laborers.
So, when all the machinery has been
put into operation, the force of ordi-
nary laborers such as are there now,
the Jamaica negro and Fellows of
that class, will not be needed.
"The Commission has been badly
handicapped in preparing for the
real work Of excavating. The whole
line of the work was incumbered
with broken-down and out-of-date
machinery conditions were unsani-
tary, and much preliminary labor
had to be accomplished before actual
canal digging could begin. From
my observation. if the steam ma
chinery proposed by the commission
is promptly put into operation, see
no reason why the canal should not
be concluded within the time the
engineers have estimated, by 1914.
"If the American people really
want, to dig the canal in hurry and
have no trouble about getting Amer.
lean labor with which to do the
work, they should elect Bryan. If
Bryan is elected there will be plenty
of men in this country out of work
and looking for jobs. They will be
glad to 60 to Panama. Then, too,
American shops will be out of Or
ders and the material for the canal
can probably be secured at very much
lower rates than at present. From
this point Of view, which I believe
is the viewpoint of every man in
business and every man who has q
dollar invested, the election of Mr..
Bryan would solve the labor ques-
ton On the isthmus, for there would
be no lack of applications for jobs
by the white workmen of this coun-
try"

All to Do Over Again.
Washington Post.

In 1929 every vote in the electoral
college save one was cast for James
Monroe for President of the United
States, and the tradition is that had
the missing vote been necessary to
his election, Mr.. Monroe would have
got that, too. It was given to John
Quincy Adams for the sentimental
reason of a Vermont elector, that
nobody but George Washington
should ever hsve a unanimous cleo
tion to that great dignity. Doubt
less the Vermonter was a very pa
triotic man.
Four years later there was but one
political party in the field, but there
were four candidates-Jackson,
Adams, Clay and Crawford-and
the vote was so divided between
them that no one had the majority
in the college, but Jackson had the
plurality, as he also had it in the
popular vote. The House of Rep
resentatives, voting by States, chose
Adams.
In those days everybody was
agreed ON the leading political issues.
In our day there is good deal of
confusion. Of course, all of us are
ready to chase the octopus and bust
the trust. But it is contended that
the octopus has already been chased
and the trust already busted. The
Republicans are congratulating the
country on the fact that President
Roosevelt has accomplished that
work thoroughly and completely.
But here comes Mr.. Bryan and pro-
claims that it Is not half done, and
he proposes to do it all over again,
to the s'abuse of Gods patience and
the Kings English"
1t is the purpose of Mr.. Bryan, if
we have read his preachment Alright,
to have another chase of the octopus
and another smash at the trust, more
arduous and more destructive than
Mr.. Roosevelt has given US. If his
party shall fall in with Mr.. Brysn's
view, we fear that "the era of good
feeling" some of US had hoped for
will be long postponed.

Arkansas Farmers Fix Price of Cotton at
Ten Cents.

Hot Springs, Ark, Sept. THE
executive committee of the Southern
Cotton Association late this evening
recon- mended to its members and
cotton growers of the South that no
cotton be sold during the present
season at less than ten cents per
pound.
In resolution adopted by the
committee, it is stated that the crop
is in state of deterioration, and for
that reason no estimate of the crop
was made. The resolution states,
however, that the committee is sat
isfied that the crop will not be as
large as the present estimate. The
placing Of the minimum price at
ten cents was in the nature Of a VIC
tory for the conservative element of

New Bern, N. C, Sept. 1O.-A
sensation of no small proportion
was produced here Sunday in the
death of Mrs. George Mccartney, a
white woman, aged "a years. She
was shot by her husband, William

occurred at place which does not

The principal witness is said to be

has not yet been found. His testi-
mony is very material, as it is said
the man was with the woman, and
it was his attentions to her that led
