Nj. Wilson has not only violated

form but has permitted hi iappointees
who are directly responsible to him,
to openly violate the very letter OF
the law itself. He was pledged to
the proposition OF exemption from
tolls OF American ships engaged In
coast-wtse trade passing through the
Panama cana" But for some reason
unknown to even the Democratic lead.
ers In congress he reversed his own
declaration on this question made
during the campaign; reversed the
Democratic platform and forced o.
bill through congress whereby Ameri.
can ships are required to pay tolls
for passing through the canal.
He was pledged to the proposition
that additional burdens should not
be imposed upon the people In the
nature Of subsidies or bounties for
the purpose OF building up a mel.
chant marine. He is now advocating
a measure In congress to the END
that the people will be taxed to pur.
chase outright merchant ships to en-.
gage in a business which the Presi.
dent himself admits will be a losing
venture from the start.
A delegation Of women called upon
him at the White House and urged
him to send a message to congress
in favor OF woman's suffrage. He
declined to do so, for the reason, he
said. his party had not spoken on the
subject and therefore it would be
improper for him to do so. But in
the matter Of civil service reform,
free tolls for American ships through
the Panama canal, ship subsidies and
bounties. without hesitation or even
explanation, he makes war on the
Democratic platform and repudiates
his W declarations made when a
candidate.
What did Mr.. Wilson mean when
he said: pledges In a platform are
promises made to be kept; they are
not moiasses to catch flies?" Did he
mean what he said then or what is
the matter with Mr.. Wilson now?
What Is the matter with Mr.. Wilson

IMPOSSIBLE TOFIH|SH
MESSAGE OPENS WAY FOR CON.
SHERATON OF REVENUE
MEASURES.

CHARLESTON, W. va, FEB. IL
The concensus OF opinion. apparently,
is that an extra session of the legis-
lature Is absolutely necessary, pro.
vided all important measures are to be
given proper consideration.
With less than two weeks remain.
ing until the regular session Is adj
journed, and since, according to
rules adopted at the beginning OF the
session, no measures other than ap.
preparation bills and those OF an
emergency nature can be considered
during the last week. it will be prac-
tically impossible to- act on all Inn
portant matters during the remain
ing time.
Since the governor has declared
that he proposes to have the legisla.
ture go on record as to its attitude
toward the legislation urged in his
message, many anticipate an extra.
ordinary session Immediately follow.
ing the adjournment OF the regular
session, unless the legislature itself,
by a two.thirds vote, decided upon IN
extra session.
The fact that the calendar in each
house is crowded, while so many OF
the administration measures are yet
to be disposed OF, pressages an ex.
tended OF extraordinary session. It
is not believed that II one is held 1t
will last more than two weeks.
Revenues Measures YET.
With three or four administration
measures already enacted and out C.
the way, and others still pending, the
legislature next will turn its atten.
ton to revenue measures and appro-
priations. The reseipt Of the gov.
ernor's message setting forth In de.
tall the states financial conditions
and recommending the enactment of
certain laws which he believes will
cover the deficit facing the treasury,
opens the way for consideration OF
these matters.
The next important measure pro-
posing to increase the states rev.
enue probably will follow soon, and
in keeping with the recommends
lions in the governors special mes
sage on finances, probably will pro.
pose a corporation tax, similar to
that in force in several other stsres.
The financial problem facing the
state undoubtedly will be the most
difficult one of the legislature to,
solve at the present session!

Sust FtohotoH 10 budy-oUCIG
Same Farmer.in.c Chief.
Farmerin-chief Of the worlds rich
est agricultural country is the proud
position of DR.. David Franklin Hous.
ton, who was awarded the portfolio Of
secretary Of agriculture when Presi-
dent Wilson passed around his cabi.
net plums. Mr.. Houston, who will
begin his fiftieth year today, is a
"Tar Heel" by birth. but a "Show.Me''
by adoption. In other words, he was
born In North Carolina, at Monroe,
but later transferred his allegiance to
Missouri. His appointment to the
post which had been held sixteen
years, under three Presidents, by
James Wilson, came somewhat as a
surprise, as Mr.. Houston was an edu.
Gator by profession and had never
taken a prominent part In politics.
The man who heads the government
department entrusted with the con-
servation Of the republics foremost
industry gained his first knowledge
Of agriculture by toiling on a farm
in North Carolina. He completed his
education at South Carolina College
and at Harvard, where he took MS
A. NJ. degree In 1892. He specialized
In ancient languages and became a
tutor Of the deceased tongues at
South Carolina College. He was
superintendent Of schools at Spartan
burg. s. c., for three years, earning
the money to enable him to take the
political science course at Harvard.
Twenty years ago he Joined the
faculty Of the University Of Texas
at Austin, where he was professor OF
political science and dean OF the fac.
ulty. It was while he was connected
with the Texas institution that he
married Miss Helen Beall. In 1909
he was offered the presidency OF the
Agricultural and Mechanical Col.
lege OF Texas, where he resumed his
youthful study Of farming processes.
1t was probably the knowledge he
gained while at the head Of that col.
lege that resulted in his appointment
to a Job In the cabinet Of President
Wilson. In 1905 Mr. Houston re-
turned to the University OF Texas,
this time as president. He remained
there until 1908, when he became
chancellor OF Washington University
at st. Louis, the position he held.
when he was called to Washington to.
become Uncle Sans farmerin.chief.
There he proceeded To- make good,
but, being q quiet man with no yearn.
ing for the limelight, his achieve.
ments have not gained much pub.
