The world is aroused over the ques-

member that the White Star Line does
not deserve any more censure than
other lines. 1t as merely the unfor-
tunate one because other lines took
the same risks and escaped.
Provided other countries are inter
ested in the safety of the people who
cross the ocean adequate facilities will

are not it is probable that the United

lean ports carry sufficient life-saving

WILL DEMOCRATS THROW
AWAY THEIR CHANCE?
Raleigh Progressive Farmer


Never since the days of Lincoln has
the Republican party been so rent
asunder as now. It is indeed the su-
preme opportunity of the Democratic
party. Nevertheless, it is to be re-
membered, the At emblem of that party
is the donkey, and many wise polite
1ans predict that it will again exer-
else its cherished and inalienable right
to make a fool of itself Just at the
time it gets a good chance to win.
Woodrow Wilson Is undoubtedly the
ablest man in the party and the fittest
exponent in the party's ideals-the one
man who would be sure to appeal to
the independent vote strongly enough
to insure his election-but there is q
formidable league against him, bent
upon his destruction, while the foolish
two thirds rule lends itself strongly to
their design. Wall street breads Will
son more than anyone else. Hearst is
jealous of him, knowing that Wilson
wears no mans collar; whereas Champ
Clark is quite willing to put himself
under obligations to a political chame-
leon. While no one doubts the person
al integrity Of Mr.. Underwood, there
can be no doubt but that the promo
ton of his candidacy by certain in
terests is nothing else but part of a
shrewd game to defeat Wilson. But
for the local pride in the candidacy
OF the Alabama congressman, Florida,
Alabama and Georgia would doubtless
have gone for Wilson. As it was, the
Georgia vote last week was as follows:
Underwood, 71,00o; Wilson. $4,000;
Clark, 10000; Harmon. 5000. Thus
Wilson lost out by only $4,000 votes,
despite the opposition of Hearst s
paper, The Georgian, the Atlanta Con-
stttution, Governor Brown and Tom
Watson.

Cannot Tolerate
Publicity.

Without having the Congressional
Record at hand to find out whether
cur senators voted as they should, we
take It for granted that Senators
Fletcher and Bryan were among the
twenty-six who voted for Senator
vy11liams's plan requiring the commits
gfoner Of pensions to publish in each
state list Of pensioners residing In
that state with the amount received
by each. The senate turned down the
proposition 81 to 26.
Why thirty-seven senator's, pretend
ing to be representatives Of the people,
could object to giving publicity to the
persons living off the government is
moro than we can comprehend at this
time. Unless they offer some expia-
nation which has some merit in IT we
win take it for granted that they are
afraid publicity of the list Of pension
ers viii put them in a compromising
position.
The pension list has become one Of
the dark spots on the nations good
name. 1t is In some respects a dis
grace to the civilization OF the twen-
tieth century.
More than half million men are
drawing pensions from the government
for service alleged to have been rem
dered in a war half a century ago.
To the men who carried the flag to
the front and fought like men. PEN
sions belong. and no one would deny
them the right to draw a liberal
amount from the federal government.
Thege men have nothing to conceal
and II has been said that a majority
of the real men who fought in the
battles of the war favored the WI
liams proposition on account OF 80
many unworthy men taking advan-
tage of the pension laws.
The tariff may be the real issue of
the presidential campaign, but It is
being demonstrated daily that many
things have been going on in official
circles at Washington which cannot
exist after the searchlight of publicity
is turned on, and the pension depart
ment practice is one of them.
What can we expect Of a body of
men standing 81 to 20 against the
public knowing where the money be-
longing to the people goesg
The country believes there are
thousands Of men drawing pensions
from the government who are not en-
titled to them. The senators know of
the public opinion In this regard and
IL they are pretending TO belteva that
the list IL perfecly legitimate one
they could have no objection to the
public knowing who is drawing the
money.
Wherever publicity is feared suspi-
cion begins to infest the public mind,
and It is but natural that it should.
Don't expect the public to believe in a
mans honesty who is afraid for the
public to know his offlcial transactions.

AN EXAMPLE OF
"FRENZIED FINANCE"
Gulf States Banker.
. . . . = . = S~~~A>

An amusing story is told of Joe, an
OLD Southern negro, whose master at
the close of the war gave him his free
dom and plot of ground with a snug
cottage upon it, situated in what was
then the edge of the city.
Joe lived here, eking out small in
come from his garden and from odd
jobs of white washing and so forth,
while the city spread out to and then
beyond him. He refused every offer to
sell, although he had many very at
tractive ones.
AT length a large building was
planned, and it was found that Joe's
lot simply must be purchased to al
low for the proposed work. Joe. how
ever, was still obdurate, but finally an
attorney, son of Joe's former master,
used his influence, and after a long and
