personally for measure whose eco
nomic nonsense and wholly undesirable
character had been barred by expert
opinions. A very different Mr.. Wilson
brought himself to sign another bill
which promises to sweep the American
flag from the seas, with rather more
completeness than could be done by all
commissioner submarines acting IN con-
cert
Then we have the Mr. Wilson who
pronounced the national defence idea a
matter of "mercly academic interest fit
for amiable people TO play with. An
other Mr.. Wilson becomes its champion
and takes it so seriously that for the
first time he commits his advocacy to
writing. That it has obviously grown
in popularity might lead to an unilatter-
ing distinction between the Mr. Wilson
of yesterday and the Mr. Wilson OF to-
day.
Finally we have the ethical Mr.. viii
son to whom it was given to see visions
and dream dreams. who held that tidel-
ity to the plighted word outweighed all
material profit or personal ambition. He
invited us-by eNhortation, perhaps,
rather than by eNample-to mount to a
higher moral plane. even though some
should starve in the ascent. And there
is the practical Mr.. Wilson, who appears
to be engaged in seeking a denomination
with an almost humorous disregard of a
certain plank in the platform on which
he stood when he asked for the votes
OF the American people.
The practical deduction would appear
20 be that vote for Mr.. Wilson could
have no assurance of attaining its de
sired end in the event of his succeeding
himself, because the votes might easily
become confused amid the shifting lights
and shades upon which have touched.

To the Editor of The Tribune.
Sir; An academical education has
given Mr.. Wilson unlimited command OF
language Stars and comets dance
through his addresses in all the mazes
of metaphorical confusion; and his per-
iods fall like music on our listening
ears. 1t is perhaps regrettable that the
inspiration is not always as admirable
as its expression. Rhetoric Is good
servant, but bad master. Absorption
in form may come to involve loss OF
substance.
Mr.. Wilson's pathetic tribute to the
American marines who lost their lives in
Mexico has almost the beauty of a re-
QUEEN mass. but mournful words, alas,
cannot recall the dead OF negative the
consequences Of mistaken action. II we
seek to penetrate the vcrbiage that en-
shrouds the White House VIC come seem
inglv into the presence of several Mr..
Milsons-is this a result of delusive re-
fractiony
There was the Mr.. Wilson who sum
moned business men TO the bar in terms
Of untempered severity. This was an
austere Mr.. Wilson who would have JUS
tice done although the heavens fell.
Quite another Mr. Wilson confronts a
different group Of men engaged in at
tempts to destroy business and prop
erty and to take human lives by meth
DDS that are mqualifcdly infamous To-
ward this avowedlv lawless body Mr..
Wilson has shown temperatures and
self-continence that are remarkable.
With the exception of the recall of an
ovcrzealous ambassador and a few depre
catory admonitions. no break is discern
lille in the undisturbed serenity of the
White House.
There was the Mr. Wilson who had
the interests Of American shipping close
TO heart-who did not hesitate TO plead

The work for which the extra ses-
sion was called into being by Gov
ernor Stuart will have been conf
pleted BIZ tonight, by which time the
bills supplementing the segregation

enacted. However, it has been found
that many local schools and road laws
will have to be changed to meet the
new conditions created by the radl-
cal change in the tax system erected
and that many towns Of the State
will have to have their charters

WHITE MAN LYNCHED.
Alleged Murder of Deputy Sheriff
Hanged in kentucky.

Lexington. Ky, Feb. ll.-Fifty
men, most Of them unmaSked, walked
quietly up to the county jai! at
Mayfie]d. Ky. Il city Of 10000 per-
sons. early yesterday, called Jailer
Duplin to the door and demanded
that Thomas Tinker, alleged murder
er of Deputy Sheriff Richard Tart,
be turned over to them. Duplin says
he recognized the futility of oppos-
ing so many men.
The lynchcrs dragged Tinker 70
tree in the courthouse yard in the
center Of the town, strung him to 3
limb. and while he slowly strangled
to death fired volIcy after volley OF
revolver bullets into him.
So far no move has been made to
arrest any of the mob members, and
Governor McCrea"y has not beer
asked TO offer Il reward.
Tinker is the first white man to be
lynched in Kentucky in years, and
ore Of The very few ever punished by
mob in this State for murder.
When he was first taken out of his
cell Tinker was asked if he desired to
talk He did not respond, and made
no resistance when The mob dragged
him toward the courthouse yard.
When he arrived under the tree from
which he was 10 he hanged. he was
again given chance TO talk. but did
not plead for his life.
All day Tuesday there were rum
ors that mob was forming in the
country districts, where Tart was
very popular, to lynch his alleged
slayer. No guard was placed around
the jail and the lynchers had no
trouble securing their victim.

PRACTICAL
SUGGESTION.

Legislation giving road authorities
the power Of eminent domain in mat
tiers Of securing rights of way for
construction of roads, and setting
aside the automobile tax for the
maintenance of the improved roads
in the State under the supervision Of
the State Highway Commissioner, is
asked for in resolutions adopted by
the Virginia Road Builders Associa-
ton at the closing session of its an
nual convention in Richmond yestcr-
day afternoon.
This suggestion was made by peo-
pie of Fairfax county last year when
it was decided to spend 100000 for
improvement of roads leading to
Alexandria. II was suggested at the
time that Automobiles would profit
considerably by the improved high
ways. and that the county should be
placed in position to be reimbursed
in Il measure for the outlay.
