Wednesday, Sept. 10, 1913 THK SI.MMONS-VXDERWOOI) RII.U It goes with the saying' that the en tire country is relieved at the passas" of the Simmons-l'nilervviiucl tariff hill In the senate, ami this iK;irlloss o,' political uffiliations. Hiisiiiess men throughout the country have been in sistent that a tariff measure of some sort he passed, so that business might have definite, knowledge of what In expect ami not he forced to predict i!v future operations on uncertainties. M may be confidently expected that Sen ator .Simmons was right in saying that the passage of the bill, will be the sig nal for increased business activity. It may be expected that eoiiferenei changes will be relatively unimportant and that the bill will speedily lie en acted in linal form. Furthermoit- it may be said that tin hill as passed is a substantial carry Ins out of party pledges, and is about what the( country expected upon the flection of -Mr. Wilson. There are a few changes that ought to be made in caucus. Mr. I'nderw nod's fear that the large reductions made by the sen ate will cut off too much revenue needs looking, into. The refusal of the senate to admit works of art free of duly is indefensible and should- be re Versed. Hut on the whole the meas ure is one in which the congress ma jority and tile administration may well take pride. AX AMIIITIOIS Pl'HUSIUXU SCHEME. Encouraged possibly by the suc cess of congress and the courts in regulating journalism under the newspaper publicity act and by the stupendous success of that always in teresting publication, the Congression al Record, the Hon. Richmond Pear son llobson is planning a more exten sive governmental excursion into the journalistic held. His bill to create the official Journal is a logical devel opment of recent congressional policy, (if necessity a journal conducted by the government would he pure and un delibd, journalism of the style con gress says it has been trying to hrin-j about. Then, under the terms of the bill, there would be provided a much more adequate avenue for the cogita tions of statesmen than now exists. Each senator would be permitted to distribute 2,000 copies per week, and eioh congressman l.l.OOO. (Here, b;. the way, Is a discrimination that must be remedied. A congressman ought not to be suppressed any more than n senator.) Presumably a kind gov ernment is to pay for the carriage, no pn id advertising would be heeded and altogether the public rouhl obtain ex tensive and extended enlightenment for nothing, not to mention a useful supply of paper for lighting fires, etc. There are difficulties in the way of the scheme, however, which appar ently cannot be overcome. In the hist place, the propontl would cost a trifle, of 75 millions, according to the originator's estimates. In the pecond place this expenditure for this pi rpose can never be Justified to the public. Why? Hecause there Is al ready nn official Journal. The public has the secretary of state's word for II; he has said that Nebraska Is the right place to go for a reliable reflec tion of tvnts ot the government. Anti-Bryan people would oppose Mr, Hohsnn on the ground that his am bitious and costly scheme Is unneces sary, and Mr. Bryan's friends for the further reason that It would bring about destructive competition; ROAD REPAIRING. The rosd system of Buncombe Is nl- m.vt completed. In that nearly every section of the count .h: r-r.. time or other been given an improved road, er has surh a road project!. Here- after the attention of-the authorities will he given mostly to repairs; and this question of repair Is going to prove a knotty one for the commls iHoners. They are going to be hard put to It to decide w hich roads to re pair firwt, for many of them need It. mid simultaneous leuests tire entered every month. The commissioners may decide to repair the roads that were first Constructed, or those that are In the worst condition; but in either case they might not repair the right road. We think the scientific way to solve the difficulty is to repair the roads first that have the heaviest tonnage, regardless of the fact that some other road may be in worse condition, for In the ease of the repairing of the road It Is a "stitch in time saves nine. It would be easy to determine the amount of traffic over each road, or it could be arrived at close enough for all practical purposes. A man could be placed on each road for three or four days at weekly or monthly In tervals, and in Una way could pretty well estimate what the traffic is. On such a basis as this no section would have a right to complain. Under any bit or miss plan, there is bound to be dissatisfaction. The people are do manding roads; and they mean to have them. To be assured of this it Is only necessary to visit the commls sioner's room on the first Tuesday in every month. A few years ago it was easy to put some of the sections off with vague promises; but now they all want the roads or the reason why. President Wilson places credit where it belongs fur the Vnderweod- Simmons Villi 1 want to express my special ad miration for the devoted, intellig-nt and untiring work of Mr. t'nderwood and Mr. Simmons and the commit tees associated with them. North Carolinians will be pleased at this Presidential expression of appre ciation of their senior senator. .Mr. Simmons' elTorts f,.r the bill were as invaluable in the senate as were those of Mr. I'nderwood in the house.
