PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.
1t has been long time since a
president sent a message to congress
that CONSUMES no more space than en-
average newspaper column in its pub
LEGATION; yet that was what occurred
yesterday when President woodrow
Wilson delivered his first message
to congress appearing in person and
reading it to a joint session Of the
senate and house. The reading did not
consume much time. owing to TIE
breyity OF the communication.
Tor one hundred years ii has been
the custom for the president Of the
country to communicate 20 congress
his views or impending or desired
legislation only by written message.
For this reason the announcement
that President Wilson would appear
in person and read his message nat
urally was somewhat OF 4 shock in
Washington and in the country. FIR
Their than to draw special attention
to the message the event will serve
no purpose, but on account Of it being
read personally there will be those
who will charge the president with
grand stad" playing.
The message itself. was merely a
concrete declaration to the effect that
the protective policy which has been
upheld by the republicans has be
come unbearable in many of its re-
suits. The duty 20 lower many oil
the tariff schedules, the president de
clares, was imposed on the party
now in power by the people at the last
election. The message goes into no
detail of argument, resting on q. clear
statement OF monopoly conditions
which rust be done away with SC
that the business of the country NAV
return to a condition that will permit
of no fsvoritism for any industry o.
class Of enterprises. But, the presi
dent declares, it would be unwlst
20 move toward this end headlong
with reckless haste, or with strokes
that cut at the very roots Of what he
grcwn up amongst US by long process,
ana at our own invitation. IT does MOI
alter thing to upset it and brea
il and deprive it CT a chance Il
change. 1t destroys it. We must mai
changes in our fiscal laws, in on
fiscal system. whose object is devel
opment. a more free and wholesome
development, net revolution or M
set or confusion
This declaration at once puts tn
president outside Of the ranks
radicals and plainly shows that he rec
ognizes that all the evils of the tarii
many net be oblitersted at one stroke
bet that the prosperity o fine eountr
must be kept in view while the re
medal work progresses.
The president intimates piainl
after a proper revision tthe tarl
has been accomplished the next in
portant duty of his adnlinistratio
and party IS that Of bringing abou
a reform in our currency system, ou
he urges that the present session
congress shall confine its attentio
10 the duty of tariff reform until th'
first and paramount duty is aecOn
plished.

Andrew Silverson, president of the
Norwegian-Danish Young. Women's
Christian Association, today demand
ed that the federal government renew
its inquiry into the mysterious disap-
pearance of twenty young immigrant
girls from, a New York to Chicago
train at Newcastle, Pa.
Silverson took this action after re-

relative of Anna Bachman, one of the
missing girls. Silverson would not
give out the name of the Pittsburgh
relative. ,

girls relatives had heard anything of
her since she boarded Baltimore &
Ohio train at New York, March II.

March 6. Her parents entrusted her

JUDGE Decides Refinery Suits.

Observation-Disclosures Judge William
P. Edwards rendered his decision in
the refinery suits, as the several cases
of the VermiiOn Sugar Company vs..
Joseph lmmergluck, F. D. Lege, K. j..
Montague ct al are commonly termed,
In these cases the plaintiff brought an
action against defendants, who are al
legged to have signed an agreement to
subscribe to build and operate a cen
trail sugar factory near the town OF
Abbeville Before the proposed cor
poration was incorporated, it is claim
ed that certain signers of the prellml-
nary stock list, including the defend
ants, became dissatisfied, with the
manner of selecting the first board OF
directors. In deciding in. favor OF the
defendants, Judge Edwards held that
the signing of the preliminary stock
list did not constitute a binding con-
tract, that it was a proposal to sub
scribe and could be receded from prior
to its acceptance. AS the sum total
of the subscriptions in dispute
amounts to several thousand dollars, it
is quite probable that the case will be
appealed to the supreme court.

Activity in Rice Planting.

Abbeyille-Despite the very unfavor-

tivity in rice planting circles. The
farmers are going ahead blowing in
the mud and water in order to get
their land broken up, claiming that
they can always do something with it
after the top crust has been broken,
whereas if the season should turn off
dry it would be difficult to pillow when
the ground became hard and packed
and troublesome to plant In the
Gueydan neighborhood large amount
of land which has been lying idle for
several years is being brought under
cultivation. Just south of Kaplan the
extensive Rushmere plantation, for
