This be the fight on Simmons, and a gull- able public are expected to swallow the whole mess- be»use. bis seat is wanted by men, yes professional politician. Thursday. July 27,1911 TRIED TO OUST DR. WILEY. It is very gratifying to the public at large to learn that after all Dr. Wiley who has charge of the pure food depart ment at Washington will not be disturbed in his position by the administration. A threat to oust him caused apprehension, and alarm, for it was pretty well rnderstood that if this cable interested in the profits of food adulterants could destroy so important a man as Dr. Wiley, then where was the limit to there power, or the curb to there repacity and wrong? Dr Wiley dismisal was demanded by the same crowd that demand ed the Remson board, and the Remson board was to nulify Dr. Wileys work, and make posible the use of benzoate of soda and other food adulterants. It is a hard proporsition when this crowd of slow poisoners be come so bold and powerful that they can secure the cooperation of the President of the United States, for it did seem for a while that Mr Taft in obedience to there demand was going to dismiss Dr. Wiley. Instead of curbing Dr. Wiley, it would be better to give him more powers, for truly he has shown him self to be a very able man. an honest man and a very capeableone, a friend of the people and fair play. -M Let us know all about the Remsen board. It has confer red on the food poisoners with the privilege of doping up half-de cayed vegetable matter so thiat its rotteness should be disguised, and palming it off on the public as decent food. ♦ ♦ ♦ The real benzoate question re lates to its use to ^ disguise unfit food articles and conduct them into the systems of millions of people who would never use them if they had not been dis infected, deodorized, and rend ered apparently decent and fit. DID HE KEEP HIS POLITI CAL PROMISE? It appears frwn the editorial page of Sunday mornings News and Observer that Mr. Daniels set down, and took his pen or pencil in hand to drop a few lines in reference to Governor Kicchin keeping his political promise, and it must be admited that Mr. Daniels droped some hot lines. PVom a careful paru- sal of a page editorial, we must confess that it was according to our estimate the best handled subject we have ever known Mr. Daniels to attempt. It puts Mr. Kitchin in a hole good and deep, and there is no getting around it. Mr. Kitchin might not have been able to secure a trust law with teeth, but did he try? If he had been truly sincere in wish ing to curb the trust then when he had the opportunity he would have exercised all the great power of his position to have ac complished that purpose. But no, Mr. Kitchin is an adroit politician, he wanted to be gov ernor, and he mislead the peo ple into believing he was going to curb the repacity of the trust in order to secure the necessary votes to be govenor, but after he became governor he seemed not to have had the moral cour age to fight for opinions he had led the people to believe he stood for. “Vou can fool all of the people some time’* some of the people all time, but not all of the people all the time. Mr. Kitchin asked for a law at the last Legislation to inves tigate the insurance business of the state, and after this if Mr. Kitchin had joined forces with Representative Koonce of On slow and stood by him as Presi dent Taft stood by Knox, there would havei been something do ing, and the fruits of a valuable suggestion would not have been lost, but after his message, to the Legislative in reference to the insurance Legislation he went in his hole, and left Mr. Koonce to battle with a lot of rapacious, mercenary, imbecils, or-political marplots, and a wholesome meagre was defeat ed. Mr. Kitchin is a fine talker, a plauseable and unusual bright politician, but nothing better illustrateshis character than his promises during the gubemat- onial fight, and after he won it. His indifference to fulfilling what he promised. CAN NOT FORGIVE NOW. Nearly every article that North Carolina people have used for the past forty years has been taxed to the limit, and it was paid without a wry face until Senator Simmons decided that as long as every thing else was taxed North Carolina products should have a share. He got a tariff on lumber for North Car olina people, this was alright un til Mr. Kitchen wanted Mr. Sim monses seat in the senate, then it became a very grevious sin, just such a sin as the Kitchenites could not forgive. Mr. Simmons might secure ai- « t n * half million for the Cape Fear j A Gem; river, he might secure a like sum for the intand water way at Beaufo! t, he might do other Cause of Contempt For Law. The Ccmcord Tribune say 8: ‘ ‘In Spar tanburg: a few nights ngo a party of six young men who are prominent and belong to the ^‘beat families-’ were caught gambling and arrested. Their names were entered on the police docket but after many hasty consulations, were blotted out before a newspa^r reporter could obtain them. The public there is demanding that these young men be tried like all other defendants in police court and - muc^ criticism of the action of the officials in suppressing their names has been heard on the streets of Spartnburg. And the public is right.” This sort of action is witnessed in every town in the country and is a pro lific cause for contempt of all law. A negro or poor ^hite man without influ* ence is pulled for the smallest offense while the fellow from the “best fami lies’' commits almost any kind of viola tion of the law and goes without arrest or punishment. And this sort of influ ence not only stays the hand of the law but it muzzles the press to a large ex-. tent. The gambler and the traducer of I women from the social world, if he hapuens to have money and influential parents, demands the editor to keep his | name out of the paper. The parents j accompany the son to the newspaper office and state in unmistakable language that this thing must not go | in print, and in a majority of cases the I matter is hu&hed—the press has been 1 throttled. i It is time for this condition to cease, and who will be the first to volunteer to stand for right and justice? Until a change is effected the law will be fetter ed and the papers will be only a partial mirror of current events.—Salisbury Post.
