The New York World gives unstint-
ed praise to Woodrow Wilson, the
nan. and Woodrow Wilson president
of the United States. 1t sees in him
safe and sane leadership that has kept
the country from the ravages of war
and steered the ship of State around
rocks of tribulation into the harbor
Of safety. But there is now a feeling
Of uncertainty in the air information
al, complications are feared and
Wilson the peace-maker" may, ere
long, be converted into Wilson the
Warrior" Patience ceases to be :
virtue sometimes. and there is a limit
to all things. Mr.. Wilson believes in
peace, but not in "ignominious peace"
Representative Beaver and Senator
Paxton, of Pennsylvania, had a special
act passed by the recent Legislature
which places that county in the dry
column beyond any question. They
were in no humor for compromises
with the liquor evil. When the Grier
aDti-jug bill failed to pass the Senate
and a compromise was
agreed upon, Representative Beaver
introduced a real prohibition bill for
his county. Senator Paxton did not
oppose n now Pennsylvania is pro
h1bition territory in fact as we'll as in
name. Bully for men like these, who
possess the courage Of their convic-
tons. 1t took nerve to do it, but
Beaver and Paxton have rendered
their people a genuine service by the
enactment of a prohibition law that
will prohibit.
One of the best productions of the
recent legislature is the act creating
a State Highway Commission. Gov
ernor Craig and DR.. Joseph Hyde
Pratt, State Geologist, are members
ex-oficio, and His Excellency has Sc
lected five exceptionally good men to
complete the membership. They are:
Col. Benehan Cameron, of DurhaN
county: Guy ". Roberts, Madison
county; E. Carl Duncan, Cartere*
county; Prof. w. H. Stacey, of the en-
cheering department of the State
University, and Prof. w. C. Riddick.
holding a like position in the A. & M.
College, Raleigh. The personnel Of
this commission spells something
more than empty honors. 1t means
that highway improvement will be the
watchword from the mountains to the
sea in North Carolina for the ensuing
two years. Everybody ought to get in
the game now.

~greenclad fade away in the horizon in
all the colors of the rainbow, making
a picture, beautiful, sublime and in
spring, is the birthplace of Mr.. Mitch
ell Lee Shipman, North Carolina's
commissioner of labor and printing.
The particulars locality is Bow
mans Bluff. This occurred on the
last day in 1866.
Mr.. Shipman, before coming to the
department of labor and printing, had
taken an active interest in politics in
his section and is still an influential
factor in the 10th district. For years
he had also been an aggressive editor
fighting for the Democratic party in
season and out of season. He has a
sort of bull dog ~tenacity that believes
in no let up until the thing he is after
is accomplished. His newspaper, which
he leased, as his time is taken up with
the duties as commissioner, is the
Western Nodrth Carolina Democrat,
and is published at his home, Hender-
sonville. For many years it was
issued under the name OF the French
Broad Hustler.
Do 1t Now His Motto.
do it now" is possibly the trait of
character which is most responsible
for the popularity and progress in
life of Mr. Shipman. Another cardi-
nal principle with him is "stick to
your friends" And the same philoso-
ply in rendering service to friends is
put into effect-"do it now"
In politics he is not spectacular, nor
does he run much to speech-making,
but as a party worker and n who
puts party principles up at the head
of the calendar. he has seen years of
hard fighting and his friends say
never made a compromise, no matter
what the price.
There is a kind Of stubbornness in
his nature, but this is for the most part
a bulwark to combat the sUubbornness
of force brought against him.
Mr.. Shipman is a Tar Heel born and
d Tar Heel bred and wants to be a
Tar Heel when dead. He thinks
Union and Hendersonville and Hen
derson county it's best setting. He
never over-looks an opportunity to

land Of beauty and one flowing with
milk and honey. He has painted his
section in such glowing colors that his
home town has been selected for a
number of conventions of State and
national importance.
Became Commissioner in 1909.
Mr.. Shipman was appointed assist
ant commissioner of labor and print
ing in 1905 and held that position until
he became commissioner. He was
elected commissioner in 1908 and took
charge in 1903. He was reelected
in 1912.
Since taking charge as commission
er, the ONCE has practically been e
olutionized, The duties of the depart
ment have been greatly broadened
and it now takes care of all phases of
the States printing business. Stand
ards have been established for all
work of this character. The report of
the department has been enlarged and
it is now received as one of the sta
tistical publications of the country,

GERMS ON SALADS.
A Simple Method by Which All Dan-

SSF may 0e f<SoiSSds
 Drs. Loir and Legagneux of Paris tested vinegar as destroyer of the germs of typhoid fever. That they ars killed by a mixture of wine and water in equal parts has long been known These investigators prove now thai twenty grams of vinegar to liter of water kill the typhoid bacillus in an hour and five minutes
 From this" writes the Paris core spondent of the London Lancet. ., practical inference may be drawn con corning salads After washing the sal ad as usual. detaching each leaf. t should be put into water acidulated with ten grams of vinegar to the liter and remain immersed in this liquid for about an hour and a quarter. All veg etables ordinarily eaten uncooked may be subjected without any inconven fence to the same process"
 A liter is equivalent to about a quart and ten grams are equivalent to about a third of an ounce. So if lettuce ol other greens for salad be placed ir water to which about one-third of al ounce of vinegar has been added and be left for about an hour and a guar ter all danger of typhoid fever will be removed
