GOYERNOE GLENN WILL GET
ONE OP TWO JOBS.
He is Reliably Informed President
Will Tender Him Either $10,000
or $7,500 Job.
Winston-Salem, Dec. 19.—In an in
terview given out today, ex-Governor
Glenn, who has just returned home,
Mr. Glenn states that he has had re
liable information to the effect that
President Wilson would offer him one
of two positions, one on the Intersta.te
Commerce Commission and the other
as a member of the boundary commis
sion. He explained that the former
position pays $10,000 while the latter
not only pays |7,500, but if he is of
fered his choice, he would choose the
boundary commission in event he con
cluded to accept a federal position.
The governor declared the work of
the Interstate Commerce Commission
vei*y confining ( exrjlaining that mem
bership of the boundary commission
is very honorable, having to do with
titier, water rights, fisheries, etc., and
leaves a member free to make polit
ical speeches, lectures, etc.
In referring: to his prospective can
didacy for the Senate Governor Glenn
spoke of the letters and telegrams re
ceived urging him to announce his
candidacy, leading one to believe that
he ha.s not yet eliminated himself as
a possible candidate.

A Democratic President, Grover
Cleveland, was broad enough to rise
above narrow partisanship to the ex
tent of greatly advancing the cause of
civil service reform. A generation lat
er another Democratic President, the
second of ' "arty during that long
period to occupy the White House, Pias
done evcii moro to hui’l that cause
than evident Cleveland ever did to
help :In other v/oixi” iveprfssnta-

record’* was ylcKfg'ed to prcmoie the
cause. Yet ore c;f his fa’st act.-' upon
entering office '.viis to ignore thv^ spir
it of the ordei- of President Tafc, ex
tending the order of Presideiit Roose
velt, placing all fourthclass post
masters under the protection of the
civil service. And this action \vpu
followed only recently by his approv
al of a provision in the deficiency bill
that deputy marshals and de:cuty col
lectors i;f internal revenue and their
subordinates should be removed from
the classified service.
President Wilson's practice is not
ov.e whit different from that of the
leader who openly announced that “to
the victors belong the spoils." To
quote Mr. GiUerte again there has
been on the part of the Democrats
■during the nine months since they
■came into power in Washingtoji
display of partisanship and a greed
for spoil unexampled in recert his
tory/’
No one is in the dark as to the
clamor among the long-starved Demo
cratic place-seekers which assails the
ears of the chief dispensers of Federal
patronage. Everybody realizes the
value to the President of such patron
age as a whip to hold over the backs
of Senate and House. But to use that
patronage in such brazen? defiaiSce
not only of professed principles, iut
of the true interests of the country,
is even more discreditable to Presi
dent Wilson and Secretary Bryan than
it is to the lank and file of the party,
for the latter at least have never pre
tended to be anything but spoilsmen.

The Old Line Fence.
Zigzagging it went
On the line of the farm,
And the trouble it caused
Was often quite warm,
The On Line Fence.
It was changed every year
By decree of the court,
To which, when worn out,
Old sires' would resort
With the Old Line Pence.
In hoeing their corn,
When the sun, too, was not.
They surely would jaw,
Punch or claw, when they got
To the Old Line Fence.
In dividing the lands,
It fulfilled no desires,
But answered quite well
In dividing our sires,
This Old Line Fence.
Though sometimes in this
It would happen to fail,
When, with top rail in hand.
One would flare up and scale
The Old Line Fence.
Then the conflict was sharp
Cn debatable ground
And the fiertile soil there
Would be mussed far around
The Old Line Fence.
It was shifted so oft
That no flowers there grew
What f rownings and clods
What words shot through
The Old Line Fence!
Our sires through the day
■There would guarrel and fight,
With a vigor or vim,
But ’twas different at night
By the Old Line Fence,
The fairest maid there
You would have descried
That ever leaned soft
On the opposite side
Of an Old Line Fence.
"Where our fathers built hate
There we builded our love,
Breathed our vows to be true
With our bands rpisecl above
Tha Old Line Fence.
Its place might be changed,
But there we v/ould meet.
With heachi tlircugh the
And with Sris.ses' most sweet.
At the Old lAne Fenct.
It v/a?- love n'tade the char/V'J.
And the eiasping of hp.iKls
ZL'ding ages of hate
And between us now stands
'”vt a cig'n of Line Fence,
debatable ('round
Now enldadles alarms,
T/ve the girl I mat there
And, well, both of the fa> mS;
And no Li;ie Fence.
