Notwithstanding President Taft in his
message recommends the postal saving
bank, the news sent out from Washing.
ton is to the effect that Congress will not
push the plan until next year. In place
ofthe postal savings bank, which is op.
posed by Wall street, efforts will be made
by the Aldrich-Canno crowd, who con-
troll Congress, to force through the Gen.
trail bank, cut and dried Wall street
scheme.
The central bank, with its branches, is
a plan to place control of finances of the
country entirely in the hands of Wall
street, by establishing big money trust,
and it would not only dominate all small
banks but virtually place all business
interests at the mercy of the big fnan-
ciers. Wall street has been planning the
central bank for twelve years. and hopes
now with Aldrich aud Cannon in control
to force it through Congress. despite the
efforts of the progressive republicans and
the democrats to defeat the nefarious
scheme.

Does Not Want Judgeship.

Governor Crothers stamps as untrue the
report being circulated that he proposed
to take Judge Pearce's seat in the Court
of Appeals as the representative of the
Second Judicial circuit, which includes
Cecil county, leaving it to the President
of the State Senate, who will presumably
be State Senator German, to fill out tive
few months remaining of the term. COM
corning the rumor. the Governor said
There is no truth whatever in it. The
bench has no attractions for me, and l
have never had the slightest inclination
to return to it, In saying this have no
purpose, of course, of rejecting on the
judiciary, for the duties attached to those
offices are the most honorable and dignified
in the State. The life, however, does not
appealto me-"
The gossip linking up the name of Gov
ernor Crothers with Judge Pearce's seat
in the Court of Appeals was supplement-
ed by the announcement that Senator
German. then the acting Governor, would
be the, logical man for the Democrats to
nominate as their candidate, and while in
office he could make. a vigorous fight at
the close of his term to wrest the Federal
Senatorship from Isador Rayner, the
ambition Of State Senator German being
to succeed his father in the National SEN
ate. Judge Pearce's term expires in 1912,
but he reaches the age limit In 1911.
Governor crothers has often declared
his purpose of filing out his term as Gov
ernor and then qnietlys retiring to E1kton
to continue the practice of law
Lawyers in Judge Pearces circuit are
very much concerned. about his retire
ment from the bench. Petitions are now
being circulated for presentation to the
General Assembly asking it 10 waive the
rule in favor of Judge Pearce so that he
may serve out the full term for which he
was chosen. Judge Pearce is as vigorous
today as he ever was. AS a matter of
fact, he is the mainstay of the courts in
the Second circuit, the court terms in the
counties of the circuit being conducted as
late as II o'clock at night in order that
the people may have the benefit of his
services in all the counties. His possible
retirement from the bench is regarded as
a public. calamity. The petitions asking
for his retention on the bench are being
signed by all members of the bar regard
less of politics.

WASHINGTON LETTER.

The first week of the Congressional SEES
sion has been uneventful. Both Houses
have adjourned from day to day and next
to no business of legislative character
has been transacted. The fact that two
large conventions, one the Southern
Commercial and Industrial Congress and
the other the Waterways Congress have
been in session in Washington has de-
tracted from the national Congress by
drawing to its sessions Members and SEN
ators, Cabinet Ministers, and the Presi-
dent himself who made speech at the
opening of this convention President
Taft spoke discouragingly with reference
to the scheme for the issue of United
States Bonds to the amount of half a
billion dollars to be used for the i'm.
provement of the Navigable water ways
of the United States. This phase of the
question however is SO dear to the three
or four thousand delegates of the con-
vention who are now in Washington and
lis urged with so much force and earnest
ness by distinguished men throughout
the country that it is difficult, 10. under
stand how the bond issue can be success
fully opposed. The present generation
can scarcely expect to see the com!
pletion of an enterprise so vast. The en-
joyment of the advantages of the i'm
provements in the waterways, undertaken
now, must be mainly by posterity, "a
posterity that will be as much weather.
and ADLER to pay the half billion of
dollars as the United States of today is
weather. and ADLER than it was before the
Civil war.
In the Presidents message to Congress
and in the Departmental reports of
the various Cabinet officers much stress
and emphasis has been given to the sub.
ject of economy Economy is no doubt
good in national affairs as it. doubtless is
in household management, butt is more
beautiful and easier as theory than as
practice. Every one remembers how re-
Gently the cant of the Simple Life, was on
the lips of everyone. It was promulgated
from the White House; butlMr Roosevelt
in the interest of peace urged the build
ing of Dreadnoughts at the cost of many
millions of dollars. So it has been with
past Congresses and doubtless will be
with the present. that when the budget is
finally made up in June, July or August
next the billion dollar mark will have
been passed

The Secretary of the Navy is making
most commendable efforts to improve con-
ditions in the Department over which he
presides and it is given out that the
young and brilliant Naval Officers who
have graced the ball rooms and salons
and clubs in Washington, New York,
Boston and other Naval Stations must
actually go to sea. Naval statisticians
have just discovered that Germany has
taken the second place among the worlds
naval powers and that this place which
we appeared to hold year of eighteen
months ago when our great fleet en-.
circled the globe, is ours no longer. 1t
is further shown that although we spend
many more millions than Germany in
the building and maintenance of our
navy that of Germany is stronger in
ships and guns and men than is ours.
These are not pleasant facts bat they are
stubborn ones and We would better face
them now than after it will be too late.

With the information that the Panal
Canal will be flushed in probably less
than five years arises the importance of
its proper defense. Military engineers
have recently reported that its protection
will not be difficult. 1t will not be
necessary to build Notifications on the
island or breakwaters extending at one
end into the Pacific and at the other into
the Atlantic. 1t is thought that it will be
only necessary to dredge the approaches
to the Canal SO that they will be narrow,
not more than five hundred feet in width,
permitting the approach of not more than
two ships abreast and these if unfriendly
war ships would be able to FIRE not broad.

guns. Batteries could be placed COM

to the entrance of the Canal so as to be

or six miles of any part of the Canal that

TOURISTS BEGIN TO ARRIVE
Hot Springs Expects More Visitors This
Year Than Usual

Hot Springs, Feb. I.-Special.-
With the opening of the resort
season. which is generally re-
garded as beginning about the
first of February, the people of Hot
Springs are keeping one eye on the
incoming trains and the other up
on the legislature at Little Rock,
speaking rather 6guratively. The
faction which favors an open"
town with gambling and betting
on horse racing permitted to -four
ish is hoping that the legislature
will be "liberal' and pass a law
multiplying the Amis anti-turf gam
bling law which closed up Oak
land race track two years ago.
The element which has a regard
for the morals of the community is
keeping close tab OH the incoming
trains to see how many tourists are
arriving. If the visitors continue
to come in large numbers indica-
ting that this season will see the
usual number, about no, 900, the
'reformers" will shout gleefully
that the chief argument of the
advocates of an open town has
been punctured, and that moral
town is not conductive to bank
ruptcy.
The fight has been bitter one
and has been waging between the
two factions Tor the past three years
and the end is not yet in sight.
The indications are that Hot
Springs will have a prosperous
season as many tourists have al
ready arrived and taken up their
quarters at the large hotels.
The homogeneous of two of the
largest hostelries have spent thou
sands of dollars during the past
summer in repairing and refurnish-
ing their places in anticipation of
the biggest season" ever experien-
ced.

we'll worth your while. Therefore
if you have desire for your boy
to become more deeply impressed
with scientific agriculture you
ought to encourage him to enter
this contest. If you hope to see
your son become one of the first
scientific farmers of your commu-
nifty and county, it is your duty to
strongly insist that he join into
this work. Your son will be ex-
pected to understand more about
his profession in the future than
was expected of you, his father, in
the past, for it is very evident that
the standard for all professions is
being raised almost annually; at
least the progress is very great.
Probably you have one son that
has chosen the profession of medi-
cine; you would not think of send
ing him out to struggle with his
opponents and skilled workers I'M
til he is we'll prepared. You pos
sibly have another son who desires
to be admitted to the bar; you
want him to develop into one of
of the best lawyers of your country.
Then probably you have a third
son who wishes to become an ag-
riculturist, the boy that will stand
behind all business; then it is to
his interest and the interest of his
country that he thoroughly under
stand his profession. Help him.
