TIE PREsIDENTs MESSAGE.

President Tafts first annual MESSAGE
was sent to Congress on Tuesday last.
Compared with the hieh-tension perform
ances Of his immediate predecessor, the
message is a rather tame and sober docu-
ment. The main points made in the mes
sage may be summarized as follows
Attention is called to the crisis in Cen
trail American affairs brought about by the
summary execution in Nicaragua of two
Americans. and the President announces
iomatic relations with the Zelayan Admin
istration in Nicaragua. and intends to take
such further steps as may be found most
consistent with its dignity. its duty to
American interests and its moral obliga-
tion to Central America and to civiliza-
ton
In opposing an immediate investigation
of the New York Custom-house scandal
the President takes the ground that such
investigation might. by giving immunity
and otherwise. prove an embarrassment in
securing conviction of the guilty parties. )"
A proposal submitted by the Secretary
of the Treasury that the executive depart
ments' deficit for the current fiscal year
estimated at $73.075. Globe met by the
issuance of Panama bonds. authorized by
Congress, is approved.
Projects recommended in the message.
in addition 70 those mentioned above. in
clude:

AssALLs PRRsIDgYT TAFT

President Taft was bitterly assailed as
unqualified TO speak on the negro probaeln
in the South" by Francis D. Winston former
Lieutenant-G Governor Of North Carolina ~hO
addressed the annual meeting Of the North
Carolina Society Of New York at its ban
quet in the Hotel Astor last Friday night
The President, he said, had written with
some heat" on the subject of the negro
and the franchise, matter upon which, as
a Northern man, Mr.. Taft had no special
right to debate.
We did not expect the President. said
Mr. Winston ito discuss our peculiar South
ern situation. We know that his study Of
it was, Of necessity. at second hand. At
the dinner Of the society last year we were
charmed with his speech, and took it as
evidence Of his good will to the South in
general. But during the recent campaign
in Maryland. when the State was consider
ing an amendment along the lines of those
adopted heretofore by eight other Southern
States, the President injected letter too
direct in its language not to give the i'm
preston that the adoption of the amend
ment by the voters in Maryland was to be
a signal for an attack in the courts.
We could but contrast the utterances of
the President with the course pursued by
several Of his predecessors. A constitu-
tional amendment, more drastic in princi-
pie, became the fundamental law in Mis-
sissippi in the Presidency of Benjamin
Harrison, and under the strenuous Roose-
welt, amendments Of similar character be-
came the fundamental law in several
Southern States Yet Roosevelt wrote no
letters.
THE statement was freely made that
the adoption Of the Maryland law would
bring on fight in the courts. North Caro-
lima is content to have this full matter
taken to the courts and. for her part, she
invited rigid criticism Of her conduct I'M
der all conditions. We shall insist. how
ever. that the whole story be told. Let the
world know the facts and the South has
no fear Of results.
I'VE want to be let alone until injustice
is apparent. We are doing what we know
is best for all the people. We are in touch
with actualities, not sentiment The mat
ter Of the weaker brother is much misun-
derstood and greatly overworked. In de-
Gliding what is right or wrong. the weaker
brother is rarely considered at all it is a
question Of right and truth.
The South is engaged in its own recon-
struction The process goes on from within.
When applied from without it has failed.
we are threatened with reduced rep
resentation in Congress. So far as North
Carolina is concerned the threatened laws
have no effect. But when the hour strikes
that the State of North Carolina must, for
the sake Of numbers in Congress, return to
the conditions that have twice brought us
TO ruin and humiliation. the answer will
be sure and swift.

THE CHANGE or INA UG URAL
DATE

II is said that the House Of Representa-
tives viii take up early in this session OF
Congress the proposition 70 change the date
Of inausuratins the Presidents and Vice
Presidents Of the United States from the
4th Of March 70 some time in April Or May,
which was actively asitated following the
OUTRAGEOUS weather Of last 4th Of March.
Representative Gaines. Of West Virginia.
chairman Of the House committee On cleo
ton Of the President, Vice-President and
members Of Congress. told a reporter few
days ago it was his intention 10 announce
hearings on the several pending bills On
this subject al an early date.
Il propose to 90 into this subject thor
ouehly." said Mr.. Gaines Involving as it
does change in the vast and complicated
machinery Of the government. with a
lenethenine Of the term Of one President
and general readjustins Of dates, there
should be no haste in dealing with the
subject
The committee Of which I am chair
man viii hold as many hearings as prove
10 be necessary to arrive at a full under
standing Of the subject and determine
ton Of what should be done. and will be
glad to hear arguments on the subject by
those interested-an guess we are all
that"
Mr.. Gaines did not say just when the
hearings would begin. but asserted that
the date would be made as early in the
session as practicable. At the first meet
ing Of his committee this subject viii be
considered.
II is 10 be hoped that this change may
be made as early as possible. There is no
reason whatever why the 4th day Of March
should be continued longer as the day Of
Inauguration, and il seems almost dis
credit to Congresses Of the past that the
change has not been made long ago. Ii
is believed that hundreds Of people have
lost their lives in attending the inaugural
ceremonies at the generally inciement and
disagreeable date at which they are nov
held and the fixing Of later period in
the spring for the interesting exercises at
tending the usherine into Office Of new
President and Vice-President every four
years should not be delayed any bnfer
