POLITICS THAT PAYS.

1t is said that talk is. cheap. That
depends altogether upon the talker
and his ability to make his tongue or
pen a valuable asset. The Charlotte
Observer calls attention to the wealth
of Mr. Bryan, $500, 600. Dr. more, ana
all of it made by virtue of the pub
licity given him as a presidential can
didate and his ability to understand
how to make t pay him. Think of 1t,
but a few years ago he was worth out
little, now rich
If ever a man has received full val
lie for what he has given it is Mr..
Bryan. And now, as there is NJ
chance of his election, Judging the fu-
ture by the past, he ought to say to
the section that has stood by him
nominate one of your own.-Durham

The Hon. w. Bourke Cochran has
told President Roosevelt his plan fol-
tanning the octopi, and has also laif
lit before the public through a speech
at Tammany Hall last evening. Mr.
Cochran proposes that
The federal government have fep-
resentation on the directory of ea1f

.merce;
The state government be likewise
Represented ON the board Of each
corporation doing business within the
state;
The employees of each f~ranchised
corporation be represented by n or
their own number sitting on the board
as guardians of the wage fund and
of general labor interests.
Mr. Cochran thinks this plan would
promote real publicity, and keep it 0
tinuous rather than occasional and
sporadic.
1t is just possible that present expo
riments in direction ought to be CIV.
en- a more thorough trial before tx
tension of the scheme is undertaken
But there al be no effective objection
to some aspects of Mr.. Cochran nro-
posat.
Thus We believe fully that when
the public contributes a franhcise OF
immense value n in its nature no.
nopolistic, to d public service corpo-
ration in a city, the municipality ought
to be represented on the board of Ill
rectors Of the corporation. The pres
ent-day conception of the function OF
a public-service corporation is vastly
ago.
The public service corporation pro-
duoes that which means life to the

vastly more important to to stock !

1t is, indeed, a matter of wonder

FEDERAL JUDGES

President Roosevelt has not TAXED
the trouble to "denounce" the actor
of Governor Glenn and other stat
officers in North Carolina i'm causine
the arrest of railroad ticket agents
who have refused to sell tickets at ths
rate ~recentely ordered by the NORTH
Carolina legislature. So far as we re-
call, no PRECEDENT, cabinet officer OF
other prominent federal Official has al
any time denounced the action of a
Judge of the courts of any state.
For a federal official to denounce lhe
judge of a state court would do no
good. In indulging a tendency to de-
nounce he would cheaper himself and
expose his office to the jibs Of the pop
ulace.-
Denouncing is a bad habit, and those
who practice it are always in grave
danger from the recoil.
Clashes between state and federal
courts in these United States are far
from uncommon. One hears OF them
in this or that part of the country fire.

Some fifteen years ago it was quite
fashionable for the governor in his
state TO rise in his wrath and spit His

people having a keen appetite for hot
stuff" but the federal judges did not
suffer i'll reputation. In good time, toe
the conflicts between thecourt S and the
commonwealth, and O fthe republic

1t is always so. Courts and judges
disagree, conflicts of jurisdiction oc-
cur, and the judicial habit that apper-
tains to the benches of the state and
union of states asserts itself to the
serene and peaceful solution of all un-
happy entanglements.
In this country of ours the federal
judges are not much than the state
judge, and neither is hopelessly bad.
Indeed, as a rule, for more than a Gen. |
fury, both have been ereditabIe to the
people they served, in the long rum,

Therefore, when the governor of
Carolina denounced the action !
Of Judge Pritchard," as it is said in
that he did, he did not ele-
vate the governOrship Of North Caro-
lima in the respect of intelligent men.
He aided in no wise the settlement of

He asked for another egg and took
another sovereign from it. The

''Na, ma! Yell get nae mair,"
was the reply, as the saleswoman
swung the basket on her arm and
