CENTRALIZATION OF POWER Republican Comrni Sella People' DlrthrlKhl. t It will be name tline before vre know the goo:l or bad effects of the railroad rate leiti.sliition and the uiuut inspection and the Panama -canal bills. There Iq not much doubt that the two first nam ed bills will buve to be passed coon by the supreme court before we know where we are at 80 far as Indorsing that legislation, tbe voters at the next lection will have to vote blindly. Tbe tailronds evidently believe that they liave not much to fear from rate regu latlou, so far as any reduction of rates is coiicornetl, or the price of their .stocks would not le so strongly main tained. The hoof packers profess to be more than satisfied with the meat Inspection bill, os they may well be, considering that a Itopiiblican congress so kindly put the cost 011 the American tax payer. Regarding the building of the Panama canal.no one but tbe engineers will know the progress that is being made, and all the people of the United States will be sure of is that tbe an nual bills n il! be paid for by them and that the cost will be Increased $40, 000,000 or more by the TJeclslon of tbe Republican congress that ail the sup plies must be bought of the tariff fos tered trusts unless the president de cides the price charged Is estortlon .ate. That, of course, tbe president will not be called upon to de cide, for the trusts and combines will keep just within what might "be looked uion as extortionate. Thus all the proposed reform and remedial legislation that has been heralded with much a strenuous flourish of trumpets and beating 'of tomtoms dwindles down to a mess of pottage for the peo ple. They may rut have sold their birthright, but It looks vastly possible , that tbe Republican leaders have mort gaged it for them and that tbe trusts And corporations expect to foreclose In due time. The congress hits taken a most rad ical position on placing In tbe hands of the president the prerogatives of .power and has declared for centraliza tion In tbe federal government of sov ereignty more than the old Federalists under Hamilton urged or desired. lu the bands of a patriot tbe Increased power of the president may do no harm and may be of service in controlling congress and the bad elements of his -party, but If a tyrant or an ambitious creature of corporation should be elected cl.ief magistrate and should desire to perpetuate his public service It would be quite difficult to depose tilm by constitutional methods. The president now has the army, the navy, the mllltla. the officeholders, a -vast swarm of them, at his beck and call. He has power to secretly Inquire Into the doings of corporations that op erate outside of one state. lie has all the machinery ,of the federal courts, the attorneys and United States mar shals, whose deputies might be In creased wltlHKit end. to Indict and punish such as might not bow submis sively to his sovereign will or disgorge assessments that might be levied against such corporations and Individ uals ns might Intentionally or care lessly have broken or evaded the law. Even many of the federal judges would '' not 1m Independent of him or at least enough would be found to enforce the law with an eye to their own advan tage. Such In brief are the conditions that now confront us through the constant subserviency of a Republican congress to nn executive clothed with vnst pow er. It commenced with McKlnley un der tike absurd scare of the war with Spain and has been gradually growing until it has become a menace under Roosevelt. The latter may be a pa triot, though most people doubt it and think him consumed with ambitious projects. He has declared he will not be a cnudldute for a third term, and for their own ultimate salvation the people must take him at his word. A Trip For the Bl Sticks. President Roosevelt is to visit Pan ama In state. The ship chosen to carry the president Is the new 10,000 ton battleship Louisiana, and she will have two other big ships as consorts. Why would It not be a good plan for Presi dent Roosevelt to take all tbe avail able ships of the United States navy and ou the same trip visit Santo Do mingo, Venezuela and any other featln republics where they need looking after and make them "pay up and look pleasant" or set upon them with tbe whole bunch of big sticks and compel them to do the "decent" thing? He could bump tbe beads of Guatemala and Salvador together and force Hon duras to a lasting peace or annex the whole outfit. That would clean up tbe whole mess at once, and tbe presi dent could fight It out with the senate afterward at his leisure. Th Plaaderlngr Bxpreaa Companies. As the new law for regulating rall Toad rates Includes express companies, 'which on a smaller scale are greater plunderers than the rallronds, now is the time to go after them, tf you have been overcharged or you can show their charges to be unreason able, gather tbe evidence and make formal complaint to the chairman of the Interstate commerce commission at Washington, and the commissioner Will proceed to Investigate and regu late their charges. But before reforms are Instituted there wtlkJta a desper ate fight In tbe courts to prove tbe law unconstitutional, and the whole fight lln congress may have to be gone through with again, as the Democratic programme was not fully followed. A Coamterfell That photographer who Is offering to sell pictures of "Roosevelt In Repose" may be able to Impose on some people, but those who know the president will refine to. purchase such counterMta.

We are not in politics, but so far as the doings of politicians have to do with good government and the righteous administration of affairs, e shall always feel free to spank. For months the best elemeuts in the vicinity of Greensboro united, re gardless of party affiliations, to se cure the appointment of one of the very best citizens of the community us postmaster. We refer to Mr. Cy rus P. Frazier, whoe nomination was sent in by the president months ago, but which was held up. in the SeDate for investigation. Without giving Mr. Frazier the opportunity of sho-ving himself to be a man worthy of the psition in every re spect, his case was allowed to hang fire until after the adjournment of Congress and now Mr. R. D. Doug las is appointed. This is the game of politics. A good man is slaugh tered and the will of the majority of tbe best people of the community is ignored for the sake of a political mess of pottage. By every , token Mr. Frazier should have been post master, but he was simply a good, plain citizen and not a politician. When will such official services ever be delivered from the thralldom of politics. N. C. Advocate.

When one man wants to turn an other man's head he tries to get his ear, but a woman makes an effort to catch his eye. Prof. Tyler, of Amherst college, said recently: "A man can live comfortably without brains: no man has ever existed witnouta digestive system. The dyspeptic has neither faith, hope or chanty."
