There is only one foreign born citizen in the Cabinet, but as his name is vX'ilson and he was born in Scotland his candidacy must have appealed to the President. FIVE out of ihe len Cabinet port folios are held by men of Southern rearing or residence McAdoo, of Georgia, McReynolds, of Tennes see, Burleson, of Texas, Daniels, of North Carolina, Houston, of Souih Carolina. THAT Governor Foss, of Massa chusetts, has "made good" as ihe chief executive of thai Stale is dem onstrated by the fact that he has been three tunes elected governor as a Democrat, and will probably run a fourth lime. As we view it, the movement for women suffrage in America is the beginning of a far-reaching change. The movement cannot be stopped because it is the mevi labl: ,esuli of education, industrial dcvtiopmem, cieinucraiic govern ment. Tut n.-ispapers are saying a greai deal aoout President Wilson's statemeni thai those who desired office under his administration must firsi see the head of the de partment under which they desire appoiniiiicrii--th.it if he wanted io ee Ihe appac t ... ,,uj scd for him. I'iKiFK though it was, President Wilson s inaugural address maps out work enough to last the life htne of an average man and then not be completed. His utterances are admirable in tone and permea ted by the lofiiest sentiments. His mission, as he conceives it, is "to restore and noi destroy." HOW'S THIS?

Tut-: Houston (Texas) Post gives forth the following wail in the in terest of the new Postmaster-General: "Grateful, indeed, for an additional cabinet office, but can't Congress spend today and Mon day amending the posial laws so as to give every bewhiskered Dem ocrat in the country a postotfice? Any kind of postolfice will be ac ceniaHe, but fur God's sake give us something. " ( M v si teen per cent, of the land of the I 'nited Stales is actually cultivated. Germany supports si viy million people on an area smaller ilian Texas, Is there not something rong ? Seven hundred thousand farmers i have crossed ihe line into Canada I in the last ten years. That fact j does not do us credit. One reason ; for this is that our government has been too largely in the hands of the Special Interests, and there has been too little legislation for the benefit of the farming classes. It has long been the boast of men in this country that women did not need suffrage because the sense of chivalry in men was so : great that the women could secure ! whatever they wanted by means of the potent influence that they wield over the sterner se, and yet when the suffragettes attempt ed to parade the streets in the city of Washington, they were insulted, jeered at awd their lines were broken and they were roughly handled, by hoodlums and toughs in men's attire.

A number of business i matters were discussed and referr- Daniel, took great pleasure in pre senting to the chapter full deeds and titles in ihe old soldiers' grave yard near Chockayotte which the committee has been working 12 months to secure. Mrs Daniel stated that on Friday, Feb 2s, the committee with Mr. Ii. T. Clark, Miss Sallie Ponton, Mr 1:'. Ponton and Davie Smith went out to ihe grounds and surveyed the lot. It was found ihat about one-eighth of j an acre of the old breast works j and burying ground was not inclu-: ded in the Kit purchased by Davie i Smith from Mr. E. Ponton but ! was owned by Miss Sallie Ponton. ' This she generously and gracefully j added to the half acre given by : Davie Smith to the chapter. Mr. E. T. Clark very kindly went over ! ihe ground, drew ihe lines, wrote i both deeds and secured the signa tures without any costs whatever. When this repon was finished a unanimous expression of thanks was given to all o.inected with the undertaking. The Daughters are now anxious to have the help and co-operation of the citizens to ena ble them io improve this lot as it should be done. After adjourn ment a program was given of read ings, history of Confederate and National songs, which songs were sung in a chorus by the Daughiers, except "Lorena," which was sung by Mrs. W. T. Shaw.
