CANNON MEN In CONTROL
No Possibility OF Defeating Speaker
For Re eIegitOn.

Washing ton Correspondence New York
Journal Commerce.
Assurance that the effort to disled sc
Speak from the leadership of
the House Will prove abortive is now
practically complete, and it would be
difficult to find more than a dozen
membeas who intend to share in a
contest against Mr.. Cannon which is
based upon the suggestion of a change
in the Speak This means that
within the past few day the speaker
ship contest has assumed a rather new
form and that it is now practically in
the shape in which it will be likely to
continue throughout the winter. The
House will undoubtedly continue un-
der it's old leadership, and the prin-
.cipai effect of what has been said and
done thus far will ce merely that OF
weakening in Some measure the grip
that has been maintained by the Can
non organization.

JUDGE TAFT AND THE SOUTH.

The speech of Judge Taft before the
North Carolina Socie. V in New York
last Monday has attracted widespread
attention, and a good deal has been
said of the liberal attitude of the
speaker towards the South and the sem
timents OF the Southern people. The
sentiments expressed by Judge Jaft as
to the enforcement of those amend
ments which have been adopted with
view to eliminating the illiterate and
vicious negro vote ares appreciated by
large numbers or thessSouthern people
as coming from a Republican leader.
The incoming chief executive leaned
towards the endorsement of these meas
ures. He declareda that Republicans
do not deem the f1fteentha amendment
to be inconsistent with the South's oh
tanning and maintaining what it re-
CARDS as it's politicali safety from the
domina a ton of an ignorant electorate.
In his inquiries into the reasons why
the South remains firm in it's adher-
ence to the principles of the Democratic
party Judge Taft threws out hints of
the immense advantage1it would be to
the South from an industrial and COM
mercial standpoint to break away from
what he saw fit to call theI South's pre-
judices and traditions in their political
aspects. In other words it1 was sug-
gested that the. so 9TH ssfuture develop
ment depended tosno littlesextent on a
departure from it's political solldity.
| Let's look at this. Judge Taft ad-
m1tted that the3South had made more
progress in industrial, commercial and
agricultural development than any
other section OF the countrys sduring the
last 20 years. He quoted statistics to
show the marvellous growth of the
South, and the figures as given set
forth a progress that is truly wonder
ltul. If,then, the South achieved such a
record as this, leading all the rest of
the country in it's accumulation OF
wealth and in progress of development
while maintaining its political solidity
where is the force of the argument thai
it should break away from this7
The fact is, the South's condition
and future development has little OF
uothing to do with it's political afilia
ton, SO long as the latter is eliminated
from the possibility of misrepresenta
ton of agitators, cranks and unscrup
ulous professional politicians in othe
parts of the country. If the South cal
lead the rest OF the nation in genera
4 growth while adhering to the princi
Piles of the Democratic party, it is a
B or New Hampshire would make mucl
greater progress by departing from
their custom to support the Republi
can party as to appeal to the Soutl
to abandon is soIidity on the GROUND

NORTH CAROLINA DAY.
Will be Observed in The Public Schools
Friday,

Friday, Decem ber 18th, North Caro-
schools of the State. The study this
year is the German settlements. The
material for the pamphlet issued by
the State Department of Public Instl q :
ton was collected, arranged and edited
by Mr.. r. D. w. Connor, secretary of
mission.
State Superintendent Joyner says OF
the celebration:
1.-THE consecration of at least one dav
in the year to the public consideration
of the history of the State in public
schools, as directed by the act OF the
General Assembly, is beautiful idea.
1t is the duty of every public school
teacher to obey the letter of this law {.
It will, l know, be the pleasure OF
spirit of it by using the opportunity OF
North Carolina Day to inspire the chill
dren with new pride in their State, a
new enthusiasm for the study of her
history, and new love Of her and her
people.
Following the chronological orde I
of the States history. the subjects OF
the North Carolina Day programs have
been as follows: In 1901 The First
Anglo-Saxon Settlement in America
in 1902. The Albermarle Section; in
1908, The Lower Cape Fear Section; in
1904, The Pamlico Section; in 1905, The
Upper Cape Fear Section; in 1908, The
Scotch-Irish Settlements in North Car
olina. In 1906 it was deemed proper
to turn aside from this adopted plan o
chronological study to devote the day
to the study of the life, character anc
splendid service OF DIR. Charles D. Nc
Iver. This year the German Settle
ments form the subject of study. II
succeeding years the history of othe
sections of the State will be studied
somewhat in the order of their settle
ment and develo pment, until the en-
tire period of the States history shall
have been covered. It is hoped ulti
mately to stimulate astudy of local an
country history
