Thursday, April 17, 1913 THE STORM IS THE BUREAU. WEATHER Prof. Willis L. Moore is entitled to the public investigation which he de mands of the conduct upon which the administration looked so severely as to remove him from office summarily and ignomlniously.. The investigation should be ordervd in justice to Mr. Moore and to the public whose office and Confidence he is alleged to have abused In promoting a .cabal to fur ther his personal ambition :v It has been evident for some time that all was not well . between the weather bureau chief and Secretary Houston, to whose place he aspired. There has been no secret of the fact that Mr. Moore conducted, or that there was conducted on his behalf, a campaign of unparalleled activity to bring about his elevation to cabinet rank. Such misgivings as were en tertained at the time, however, did ' not generally contemplate that im proprieties in his behalf among fed eral employes had extended to such lengths as represented by Secretary Houston. Organized political activity among such federal employes as Mr. Moore could influence In his behalf and the utilization of the government's re sources to further his candidacy would obviously have been highly Improper. Nor on the other hand is it to be tol erated that a faithful and efficient public servant of high repute should bo "driven out in disgrace" by "third degree methods," as he alleges, for legitimately aspiring to a post award ed to another, who thereupon acquired the. power to destroy a rival. Th county should know where the truth is In" this controversy, regardless of the consequences. ; I Special to The Uazette-ivews, Raleigh, April 17.

A roar to the effect that Tyrus Raymond Cobb Is gettln' above his raisin' and stands in general need of a'sound spunking? Such we Bather to be the gist of the remarks of the president of the Tigers. Any how Mr. Navln will have no more of hia former pride and glory until Geor gia's favorite son takes cap In hand and goes begging for a Job at the old figure. None need be surprised at anything a baseball magnate does or says, but we ask, is this any way to treat Tyrus Raymond Cobb? "Tn the past I have put up with a great deal from Mr. Cobb," says Navln, and goes Into par ticulars: "If Mr. Cobb doesn't like a room a hotel clerk gives him, he quits the club for a week. If he doesn't like what a silly man in the grand stand yells at him, he punches his face and Is again out of the game. If he doesn't feel like practicing he stays away from the park," etc., etc. Mr. Navln even refers unfeelingly to Cobb's "barnstorming team,'' recently edifying the south, and his daily ulti matum from Augusta. , ' I Mere eccentricities of genius, these. If Achilles coold sulk In his tent can not Ty Cobb? If Sarah Bernhardt could drive managers to the madhouse, cannot Ty Cobb pout In Mr. Navln's vicltllty?

VICTORY FOR REXFORD Dr. Cowles, on the invitation of the school authorities, gave an address Tuesday afternoon to the teachers at their conference in the High school. The doctor was asked to speak espe cially In regard to the conditions nf life In New Zeatand and Australia, and for an hour hit spoke and answered numerous questions regarding the edu cutional tystem In the southern hem Isphere. He Informed his hearers that In New Zealand and Australia educa. Hon was quite free, from primary to university, and that the students at tending all the public school were allowed to travel free on the railways and street cars und In remote' districts conveyances were provided at the pub lic expenm Ho alfo spoke of the cations! schools In Australia and slat ed that at the age of IS boy were so educated as to be able to enter at once upon the arduous duties of eommer clal life. The doctor then frankly pointed out what ho believed were the weak points of the educational sys tem In America.' He stated that 1.- 000,000 boys and girl attended the school of this Country, but as a mat tor of fuct only about 1,000,000 stu dent attended the high schools, and he asked: "Why persist In maintain ing the high school? Why not abol ish them and use the money and the teachers thus liberated to make the lower grades more efficient?"
