How the Sun Lifts" the
Ocean Water Up to
Form Clouds.

In short time there will be
hardly a great river in the world
that has not been enslayed to
mans mightiest and most versa
tile servant, Electric Power, the
only power that carries itself from
place 10 place, wherever its master
bids 1t go, and turns itself from one
form to another at his will.
This power has it's birth in the
sun, and gravitation is its foster
parent, so that the sun ana the
earth work in a yoke TO serve the
needs OF their dirninutive task
maker, Man.
The sun begins by evapOrsting
the waters of the ocean and send
ing them up in the air to form
clouds The clouds condense into
rain on the hills and mountains,
and thus nil the springs and
streams The streams unite TO
form rivers. The water of the riv-
ers, drawn down by the gravitatiOn
Of the earth, hurries oceanward
through the valleys and leaps roar
ing down the rapids and over the
precipices. Every step of its down
ward progress means expenditure
Of the energy which the sun put
into it when it lifted It, in the
form of invisible mist. to the
mountain tops
Until our late day this wasted
energy OF the rivers was only ocCa-
siOnally utilized to drive the water
wheels of a few saw or grist mills.
Then, but a few years ago, came
the discovery Of the mechanical
power Of electricity-and how
swiftly We have availed ourselves
Of i'll We were a long time about
It, but at last we have discerued
the possibilities OF this wonderful
combination OF sun and earth en-
ergy and turned them to account
The Earth Takes Hold to
Perform It's Part in
the Task.
Let us look at It & little more
closely. The energy Of the rivers
is due to the descent o. their
waters. But in order that they

WORK OF THE GENERAL ASSEM-
BLY,.

The Legislature which has just con-
cluded it's work put on the statute
books nearly 1900 acts and resolutions.
By far the greater number of them re-
fer to local conditions, or neighbor-
hood affairs. Few measures of State
wide Importance were enacted. Some
of these bills are: Declaring trusts
illegal combinations in restraint OF
trade; search and seizure law; auth
orizing counties to levy taxes and is
sue bonds for erection of hospitals
providing six months school terms for
all school districts; increasing num-
Der of judicial districts, judges and
solicitors from sixteen to twenty; en-
towering married women to recover
damages for personnel injury and for
their personal earnings; prevent use
of firearms by children; provide issue
of bonds to cover deficit caused by ap-
preparations for permanent improve
ments-two and four years ago; child
labor law prohibiting working of child
rem at night in manufacturing estab-
lishments; prevent water power trust
and i%nterurban electric railway COM
panies from Selling property of small
companies under cover of rights Of
eminent domain; appoint county
boards of education; the Revenue and
machinery acts.
Among the few resolutions which
psssed muster are those demanding a
fair adjustment of freight rates; rat
flying the 18th amendment to the I'm
tied States constitution by providing
for the eelction of U. S. Senators
by a direct vote of the people; asking
congress to pass the Webb bill forbid
ing shipments of liquors into dry" ter
ritory from "wet" states and one re-
questing the President not to veto said
bill; t o investigate operations of the
South Atlantic and Trans-continental
Railroad, and a few others of minor
Importance.
The proposition of State aid for
highway construction passed the House
but met with ignonimious defeat in the
Senate. Other m]eritorious measures
failed in like manner, in either the
House or Senate and will have to be
considered again at some future time.
The House and Senate frequently dis
agree on matters of public import and
each serves as a check upon the other.
The defeat of the road bond bill is
much to be regretted.

The defeat of Senator Bacon, of
Georgia, for president protein of the
United States Senate and the elevation
of Senator Clark, of Arkansas, to that
position indicates a desire on the part
of the new progressive contingent to
smash the precedent of recognizing
seniority in the distribution of honors
by the party caucus. Senator Bacon
was clearly entitled to succeed Sena-
tor Gallinger as president pro tenn and
his friends are justified in resenting
tactics employed to defeat him.

WILSON AND THE PLACE SEEKER,

President Wilson has reached a pro-
yer conclusion with reference to see
mg ~omce-seekers, by the announce
nRcnt that all visitors of the class nam
ed must consult with heads of depart
MentS- except when invited to see him
In person. Mr.. Wilson evidently
thinks his official duties consist of Civ
Eng attention to matters other than re-
eefVing and listening to the entreaties
Gf~ place seekers. The decision of the
Fsesident means trouble for the vari-
q administration heads, who are al
ready being besieged by national COM
IREEteemen, state chairmen and minor
leaders from various states, with
chains of those entitled to share in the
patronage that is daily being distribut-
9 But the fact is evident that Mr..
Wilson has adopted the only feasible
Plan which could be carried to any
Ghng like a satisfactory conclusion.
Ne has selected his generals and they
ought to- be able to handle the applica-
6oas for positions under their super
vision. Should the necessity of getting
Gte ear of the President arise a a
viii be found.
But the President should remember
afzt this decree will have to be ad-
hered to strictly if harmony shall be
promoted. There must appear no evil
aeRce Of favoriteism, or discrimination
On his part. 1t was friends that ele-
waited him to the presidency and many
O&~them expect him to show his appre-
Glatien by courteous treatment, if he
should not be able to give them a
~RSuG-Out." 1t is to be expected that
President Wilson will devote a great
deal of his time to consideration of
great questions now confronting the
country, but he may just as well make
up his mind to step aside and shake
hands with visiting friends once in
awhile.
This question of patronage has been
SthorH in the flesh for years in both OF
TIA great political parties. 1t is a
menace to any party and has caused
he poIiticl funeral Of many useful
men. President Wilson and his cabi-

TO ISSUE BONDS.

The States lawmakers have deter
mined to meet the deficit in the treas
ury caused by. appropriations for per-
manent ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS OF
the new State building, enlargement OF
hospitals, the establishment of edu-
cational institutions, etc., in the last
few years, by an issue of more than a
million dollars in bonds. A bill pro-
viding the issue passed both houses
by a practically unanimous vote. In
the House, only six republicans and
,one democrat voted against it and little
Opposition developed in the discussion
on the bill.
1t is all right to issue bonds for per-
manent improvements, as in this in
stance, but the people would not stand
for anything of the kind to relieve a
ondition brought about by reckless ex-
p~enditures. or mismanagement. Gov
ernor Aycock used to say the people
of North Carolina did not object to
spending money wisely, but never fail
ed to register their protest against in
competence, extravaganza and corrup-
ton. And he spoke truly The demo-
cratic party has always been candid
with the people, neve failing to rend-
er a true account of its stewardship at
any time. It's past record is an open
book and the present administration
will not deal less frankly with the peo-
pie than any of those it has succeeded.
An issue of bonds is a necessity, if the
State shall retain it's various railroad
properties. Future generations will
enjoy the benefits Of all permanent i'm
proVements and it is only fair and
just that they shall share in the cost
incident thereto.
This paper believes a mistake was
made by the General Assembly in not
of the Atlantic and North
Carolina Railroad when the opportuni-
ty to sell early in the session present
ed itself The State never has sue
ceeded in the railroad business and
prospects are meagre that it ever will.
Had the proposition been accepted, the
necessity for a bond issue could we
believe, have been averted. But the
decreed otherwise and
there is no appeal from it's decision.
The State must go forward and cit
takes money to buy land" We shall
not attempt to question the combined
wisdom of ITO Legislators and bow sub
missively to their decision. Let the
bonds be issued.
