That is one phase of the failure
Of party politics to cut much ice
in Washington this winter. Of
course, the utter collapse of the Re
publican party in its national as
pect leaves the Opposition without
much to oppose with But leaving
that aside, there hasn't been an Ad-
ministration since that of John
Quincy Adams that had such I'M
animous popular support.
The other thing that has surpris-
ed the observers who are accustom-
ed to look at everything from a
party point of view is the Presi-
dents request that members and
officers of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee cease capitalizing
their political prestige for their pri-
vate benefit. That is something
quite unheard Of in Washington.
What's the use of being a member
of the central committee of the
party in power unless you can get
some law clients, or rich folks who
want income taxes adjusted, or bust
ness men who want favors, to pay
you for representing them in Wash
ington.
But MIR. Roosevelt has announced
that he wants nothing of the sort
undertaken from now on. To
party workers holding Government
jobs, he gave the choice Of quitting
their Government posts or resign
ing their party office. Among the
ones who have quit the party OF
ganization are Robert Jackson, Sec
rotary of the Democratic National
Committee; Frank c. Walker, its
treasurer, who is Chairman of the
Presidents Economic Council, and
even Jim Farley, the Postmaster
General, has announced that he is
going to resign as National Chair
man of the party.
The fact seems to be that Mr..
Roosevelt has become annoyed by
the constant repetition of the
charge that nobody can get a look
in at a Federal job, no matter how
capable, unless he is an active
worker i'll the Democratic Party,
what is called here an FRBC, which
means "For Roosevelt Before Chi
cago." There isn't any ques or
that that was the spirit in which
Farley and other party leaders ap-
preached their task Of selecting men
for office, and a good many men
and women have been appointed
for no other reason than they had
good Democratic Credentials. But

r DECREASED
Gains In North Carolina Were
Largely Made During The Last
Six Months In 1888.

North Cerolina's increase in retail
business during the year was greater
than the average for the nation as
a whole and greater than hat of
any state in the Fifth Federal Re-
serve district, in spite of North
Cardinals sales tax operating for
the last six months, according to
the business report of such sales by
the Federal Reserve bank of Rich
mond, as of December 9, and r%eleas-
ed by Harry MCMILLAN, state d.
rector OF assessments and collections.
Retail merchandising in the
Carolinas, made up almost entirely
OF stores reporting in North Caro-
lima, show an index figure of 1877
for December, 1888, as compared
with business in the state in De-
cember, 1852, while in Virginia the
increase is shown BY the index
nEs y j eoHp5slssn with

For the entire year. 1855 the in
dex figure for the Carolinas is rs
and for Virginia minus IL,
showing this states business in
creased in 1888 over 1882, while
that of Virginia decreased. The
gain in North Carolina was largely
in the last six months (the sales
tax period) the report shows.
The report shows, as above, that
the increase in business in North
Carolina was considerably above
that in any other state in the fifth
district. They show also that re-;
tail merchandising in the state since
the sales tax law has been effective
has so been operated that the merch-
ants show a greater increase in
volume of trade than the adjoining
state of Virginia and a much greater
increase than the national percent
age or the percentage of the Fifth
Federal Reserve district as a whole.

step-daughter II years old and a
son years of age. I am a good
proYider and think lots Of my
family. My wife is a good cook
and a good houSekeeper and tries
to be saving. But we can not
agree on the step-daughter. She
is very sassy to her mother and
me also, but she is never punished
or corrected by her mother. If
I offer to correct her, or object to
her in any way, hell is to pay.
My son does not talk to me as
this girl talks to her mother, but
if he says anything to his mother
such as he heard the girl say, she
slaps his face off. I can't see why
a mother would be that way to-
wards, her own child. She says
if there is any furnishing to be
done to her daughter she will do
it, but she never makes her word
good. Do you think I should take
the step-daughter'S slurs and
never return a word?
A LOST HUSBAND.
Answer-You will find the answer
to your own problem in the forego'
ing letter. If you do not let the
stepdaughter's slurs arouse you tc
anger, but talk to her kindly aftel
her aggression against you has dice
down, you can accomplish wonders
with her.
You must remember that the
child has just cause for this feel
ing. You naturally prefer you1
own son and take his part against
her and his mother. The mother
tries to make up to the daughter fol
your lack of love by overindulgine
her. The child is quick to profit
by the mothers weakness. She finds
that it is an advantage to arouse
your wrath for it will guarantee hel
extra tenderness from the mother.
Try to see the child's problem anc
pity her. She is the victim of cir
cumstances over which she has NJ
control. You need your wife's CO.
operation in handling the child
and you will get it just as soon a.
she is convinced that you have the
child's welfare at heart. AS it il
she feels your jealousy and resent
ment and does not trust you to give
the girl a fair deal.

child makes remarks that her
mother has told her to make in
my presence, and her attitude
toward me is nasty. AS a result,
I have grown to dislike his child,
and her very presence makes me
creepy. I am miserable in my
own home. I resent everything
do for her. I know it's wrong
and I've actually prayed that I
might be strong enough to con-
ceal my feelings, but I'm afraid
I can't continue much longer.
It will hurt my husband to give
his child back to her mother, as
the court awarded him the child
on account of his wife's conduct.
It will also be a severe blow if I
leave and take our baby, as my
husband adores his little son and
I know that he loves me.
A READER.
AnSwer-The first thing you mus
do is to exonerate the child in YOU
own mind She is not to blame
When a child is nasty you may de-
pend on it that it is the grown-upi
who are wrong-not the child.
Imagine now confusing it is tx
be torn between love for two peo
pie who are antagonistic to each
otherl Imagine how it would be Il
be used as a missile with which on
parent strikes at the other!
The child's mother uses her as
tool through which she gives ven
to her resentment against you ant
the chid's father To get even TO
the loss of her daughter she woulc
disrupt your home by poisoning tn
mind of the child.

Manners and Morals
BY JANE JORDAN

You started out with the best in
tentions in the world toward the lit
tie girl. Before my son was born
I loved my stepdaughter very
much" You would be scarcely hu-
man if you didn't love your own
flesh and blood better than the
child of a woman whom yau can
not help but despise. No matter
how hard you strive to conceal it,
your stepdaughterS is bound to feel
that the new baby has displaced her
in your affections. She no longer
holds the place of importance in the
family. Although children do not
reason such things out, they feel
them in the air and are disturbed
out of all proportion to the cause.
Isn't it natural, then, that the
girl should turn to her mother for
the attention she Graves? Isn't it
natural that she should feel some
aggression against you, who took
her mothers place, and who brought
strange child into the home to
usurp the place which had been
hers alone?
An 11-year-old child can not be
expected to understand the cause
of her parents separation. How
does she know which one is right
and which one is wrong? She is not
endowed With the ability to render
just judgment on family problems.
All she knows is that grOwnupS have
mad her unhappy and it is natural
that she should make nasty re-
marks.
If you want to be very wise you
will not resent the little girls ag-
erosion against you. Let her say
all she pleaSes and get it out of her
system. Do not reply to her little
cutburstS until her resentment has
burned itself out. Then you can
work with her better because you
will have less resistance to contend
with. 1t will not be wise to say
things against her mother, or to try
to make her take sides.
There are a dozen little things
you can do to make her feel more
secure in your affections. You can
show an interest in her school work,
in her clothes, her friends, her play.
You can include her in your house
keeping tasks, praising her warmly
for any cooperation. Pardon her
impertinent remarks at the time
they are made, but talk to her
kindly afterward, pointing out the
value of courtesy and the power Of
soft answers to turn away wrath.
If you have any relatives who will
welcome the child for a visit now
and then, it would be an excellent
thing to remove her from the dis
turbing influences of her home life.
After an emotional rest she will re-
spond to your efforts to adjust her
to the difficult conditions of her
own home.
More than anything else you need
to understand your own hidden con-
f1ictS which the child sets off by
her antagoniStic behavior. 1t isn't
the child that you dislike so much
as the mother to whom your hus-
band once belonged. You resent
what she takes from your own
child, but since you know this to
be unworthy you must find obvious
faults in the child to justify your
feeling.
I believe you to be an honest,
weu-meaning woman who has the
patience, the tact and perserver-
ance to save this unfortunate little
human being from being ship
wrecked by her parents mistakes.
Dear Jane Jordan-n you can
solve the mystery about my wife
it will mean lot to me. I have
been married six years. have q
