Ex-GOV. Jarvis Believes Craig VIII
Be Next Governor.
Raleigh Cor. to Greensboro News

Raleigh Cor. to Greensboro News
Former Governor Thomas J. Jarvis,
of Greenyille, who was at the Var
borough house last night, in discus
sing politics in this state made the
statement that he believed that Locke
Craig, of Ashville, would undoubtedly
be the next governor of North Caro-
lima.
81 find very little opposition to Mr..
Craig" he said, "and 1 believe that
he will be nominated almost unani-
mously. The east seems strongly for
Mr.. Craig"
AS the race stands to date, it is
safe to say that Craig will win in
a walk. There is only one announc.
ed candidate SO far in opposion TO Mr.
Craig, that being Lieutenant-Govcr-
o Newland. The progressing ele.
ment of the party seems to be doing
its figuring more on the senatorial pos.
sibilities than on the goyernorship.
Mr.. Craig's long party service ant
the strong a he made three year.
ago have given him a long lead OF
anyone else. From careful observa
ton, it seems that his chances of lfail
sailing are excellent and unless thos.
who r steering his 'gubernationa
ship run onto snares and q~uicksands
he will be the next governor.

lumber when the Payne-Aldrich
tariff law was pending in the last
session of congress. In doing SO.
they succeeded in retaining lum-
Der on the protected list, butupon
a revenue basis only. All are
chargeable with the same of
fense and any attempt to saddle
the responsibility upon any par
ticular n of them is wrong. The
lumber schedule was a very small
feature of the bill which every
democrat from the State opposed
upon it's final passage. Everyone
of the democratic representatives
were reelected by increased ma
.iorities, while the three republican
members who supported it were
retired to private life.

GOVERNOR WHO DOES THING

EHMl& #ZE A.
A man of destiny is Governor
Woodrow Wilson, of New Jersey.
There are public servants who
may reasonably, belcharged with
making promises to the ear and
afterwards breaking them to the
hope, but Governor Wilson is not
one of them. He believes in doing
things, as the recent enactment of
the following measures by the
New Jersey legislature will show.
Here is what he has accomplish
ed in just a little while:
"Direet primaries for all elective
state and local Offices
Direct primaries for United States
senator and delegates to national con
ventions, with popular expression OF
choice for president and v~ice-presi-
dent.
Personal registration.
Civil Service for election officers.
adoption of the Massachusetts,
non-partisan ballot for use in pr
maries and elections.
"a drastic corrup practices act
limiting use Of money in elections.
Regulation of public utilities, with
power vested in the commission to
make rates and a physical valuation
of utilities property.
An employers, liability law, with
provision for compensation to work
men for all accidental injuries.
Commission government for cities
including the initiative, referendum
and recall.
Regulation of cold storage.
Purchase of the right of way for a
ship canal across the state.
Reorganization of the state school
system.
Reforms in railroad taxation
methods.

There seems to be a persistent
effort upon the part of a good
many people to bring former Gov
ernor Aycock into the race for
United States Senator against
Senator Simmons and Governor
Kitchin, two avowed candidates.
Governor Aycock is said to be Sc
riously considering the advisable
ity Of taking such a course and
promises to make his conclusions
known within a short while.
Friends claim that he is receiving
numerous appeals every day, from
all quarters of the State, to an
his candidacy. Well, if he
does, there will be something do
in North Carolina politics
next year. Ne doubt about it.

ChinK, Won't be Dep0rted. z

New York, April PA precedent
which may be interpreted to- lead to
liberalization of the Chinese exclusion
laws. has been established by the De-
partment of Commerce and Labor IN
the case of Lem Thung,a wealthy Chi
naman of Wilmington, N, @.
Thung has been held at Boston
where the immigration authorities
found he was attempting to re-enter
this country with irregular papers.
Secretary Nagel has ruled to admit
him as a merchant. Several Con-
gressmen made representations in his
behalf.
The record in the department shows
that Thung, who is a stakeholder OF
a National Bank in Wilmington. the
owner ola large laundry. and a val
liable farm, had a New York China
man arrange credentials for his re-
entry to the United States after a visit
to China. He could have claimed the
right to re-entry as a returning labor
or.
Heretofore the department has de-
clined to recognize laundrymen, farm
ers and like as merchants.

Chinaman Grateful.

News and Observer.
w. B. Cooper, Of Wilmington, who
with a party of Wilmington people
went to Washington last week in the
interest of Lem Thung, a Chinaman,
who was denied right of entry to
America, has written Commissioner of
1abor and Printing. M. L. Shipman.
informing him of the success Of the
trip and adds:
az feel that many, many thanks are
due you in this Matter because as a
representative of this state you were
entitled to be heard. Please let me
thank you once more for meeting us
in Washington and the Chinaman ap-
preciates it very much indeed, al
though he is hardly able to express it
in good English"
1T appears that Secretary Nagel, of
the Department of Commerce land
Labor, allowed the Chinaman to re-
main in this country because, as Mr..
Shipman testified, he was considered
a merchant or proprietor instead Of
a laborer. The fact that he had in
vested in North Carolina and other
States instead of sending his money
back to China mitigated greatly in the
Chinam2u' favor.
