GOV. WILSON RETURNS
FROM THE BERMUDAS
President Elect Reaches New
York Early and is Keeping
Mum on Politics.

New York, Dec. 16?-President-
elect Wilson returned to-day from
his vacation trip to Bermuda. The
steamship Bermudian, which car
ried him and his party. docked here
few minutes after o'clock this
morning. Not an announcement as
to politics or anything else did the
Governor have to make on his ar
rival. s.-
I'm going to devote myself to
New Jersey affairs" he said.
After a few hours in New York
he planned to go direct to his home
In. Princeton, so as to be on hand at
the Statehouse in Trenton early to-
morrow for the regular budget of
State business.
The President-elect brought with
him his annual message to the New
Jersey Legislature, which meets on
january IA. 1t embodies every
plank in the Democratic State plat
form. New Jersey is just now par
amount in the Governors mind. and
1t Is quite, likely that until he is
able to complete his programme OF
progressive legislation he will not
only continue in once as Governor.
but will not take up many Of the
preliminary tasks Of ofiice-illing
with respect to his Presidential ad-
ministration.
As to appointments, Gov. Wilson
admits that 2 while selections have
been running through his head. he
has not decided finally on any post
Of importance and has not even
chosen a private secretary.
The Hartford herald., 1912-12-18

thought the editorial column
in the News was easy to write.
We asked him to write one and
give us a rest. He has not been ,
in the office since. t.i
The same sort of experience has
beep encountered in The Herald Of
fee and has perhaps been met with
in many newspaper offices of the
country. A column or so Of mis-
cellaneous items in print looks very
easy of accomplishment, but the fell
low who thinks he could grind them
out without any trouble or expe-
rience would find himself disappoint-
ed at the task. Editing a newspa-
per Is not like mauling rails, but 1t
is hard Job just the same.

Copying what The Herald said
last week about there being nothing
equal, in the hate business, of one
woman's Jealousy of another, the
Owensboro Inquirer says:
Is it possible that The Her
aid has never heard Repub-
~ lican express his opinion of a
Bull Moose?
Sure we've heard this opinion ex-
pressed-we're right in the hot-bed
OF its termination. But We were
thinking of the higher social centers
instead of the pdlitical mud pud-
die. Comparing the two. however.
the INQUIRER Is right. The con-
tempt Of Moosers and Republicans
for each other tAnscends anything
in the Jealousy or hatred line.

Sec. 2. Any person who shall be
guilty OF the violation of this ordi-
nance shall be guilty of a misdemea-

and each dance SO engaged, in, shall
be deemed separate offense.

Followers of the Revolution
in Mexico Are Forsak-
ing the Cause.

Mexico City, Oct. 12.-Adversity has
resulted in an alteration of the per-
sonnet of Pascual OrOzco's Immediate
following. The rough riding Of the
guerilla warfare made necessary by the
campaign of General Huerta and by
the efficiency of the American author
tiles in preventing the expectation of
arms and ammunition, did not appeal
to a number of the more fastidious
rebels. and they have disappeared
from Orozco's army. ~ -
One of the first to go was Gonzaio
Enrile, polished product of the old
regime who had charge of the treas
ury of the rebels. Jose Cordoba, who
bore the title general secretary of the
revolution" was one Of those captured
by Americans at Ojinaga when the
father Of the rebel leader was taken
in custody.
Others who for various reasons have
left the service OF the rebel chief vol
unfairly include Alfonso Casteneda

established their temporary homes In

MADERO IS
WORRIED OVER
SITUATION

Mexico City, Oct 12.-How much re-
lance the executive can place upon
the support OF congress this, fall and
winter is not known. That President
Madero became worried during the
first days Of the session was evident
1t had appeared that the government
party. or the Progressives, had the
control Of the chamber when that body
was gathering at the capital. but not q
week had passed when 1t became ap-
parent that the chamber had been split
into many factions. giving no party
the control. Worse still. men who had
been elected by the votes of one party
solemnly announced stheir own politi-
cal Views as different from that Of their
constituents and lined up with one Of
the many factions.
All that became certain early in the
session was that there was strong
group who declared their support Of
the administration so long as they
approved Of the governments meas
ures." The conversation most fire.
,quently heard in the lobby was that
congress now was going to conduct
the affairs Of the country; that con-
gress would give instructions to the
president rather than receive them"

FRENCH Old AGE PENSION ACT
DECLARED RANK failure;
DEPUTIES TO ACT
Was Designed to Benefit the Working Man and
Wage Garner, But He Is the
One Who Complains

holds the employer directly response.
BILE for the insurance stamps: thus,
when a working man is looking for q
job he doesn't find 1t very easily un-
less his card is stamped up to date.
In France the act made insurance
compulsory but omitted to provide the
means to compel. To be sure the law
stipulated q fine equal to the amount
of unpaid insurance. but that. of
course. does not brighten either the
employer or the employee. The worst
that could happen to either would be
the forced payment Of an amount act
ually due.
Many Theories Advanced.
Just what the real reason for the acts
failure may be, is hard to say. There
are many theories. but theories they
remain. The French, however. are by
nature very conservative. especially the
So called lower classes. They want to
be let alone. They hate prying. They
are supremely suspicious Of politicians
and the government generally. Also
they are VIGOROUSLY thrifty. Nearly
every family has its has de laine''
(woolen stocking) hidden away some
where. full Of yellow money, else has its
account with the postal savings bank
and owns municipal or national bonds
which sell in a way that they are
enabled to purchase them.
Therefore the French wage Garner.
as rule. is independent to a large
extent; he certainly does not stand
much in need Of the governments $50
year. In the second place. he had
rather trust himself with his money
than anyone connected with the gov
eminent. Thirdly, he is by constitu-
ton opposed to letting the world know
just how much money he is in the habit
of receiving annually, and he can't
bear the idea Of going to the town hall
and putting down in black and white
such secrets as these. Fourthly, he
probably resents the government max.
ing Compulsory" such a private af.
fair as the money saving business, and
It is quite possible that a larger per-
centage would have insured themselves
had not this item of compulsion en-
tered into the scheme. Lastly. the
General Confederation Of Labor is
"agin the government" on almost every
thing and naturally members of this
large organization, most OF them re-
ceiving less than the 5000 maximum
wage, are timid about getting insured.
Anyway, whatever the reason for the
acts fiasco, the government is up a
tree. 1t will have to do something: It
cannot stay there forever. Either the
chamber Of deputies will have to de-
wise a means Of forcing the people to
insure, else admit defeat by letting
the case go by default, 1. e.. by not
pressing the matter with the employees
whom 1t wishes to see insured.
A third alternative is the repeal of
the present act and the drafting OF an
entirely new one. based on Frances
own, and the experience of other ma
lions in dealing with the same prob
lem,
