Thursday, October 2, 1913 A DISTRESSED WILSONIAN. ; Undeniably, and' entirely as was to e expected, the negro la not faring a well as he might under this Demo I'atic administration. Included in the emovals incident to the change of ad ninistratioh4 are those of many ne rroes, and practically none are being .hosen to take their place. So ex reme is the situation that the" New fork Evening Post, which never has een able to find anything good in the outh but Jhe man of color, is at the icint aDDarently of renouncing its phg allegiance to Wilson. Says the ost: ;:"';..'."'" According to press dispatches, when 'resident Wilson was askedyesterday y Congressman Henry George wheth :r he would appoint colored men to ifflce in this city, the President told lim to ascertain the sentiment of nembers of the senate on that, ques lon. This seems to have been Mr, Vllson's policy thus far to-leave the uestion whether the President of the Jnlted States shall appoint to office he representatives pf nearly .ten mil oh Americans or not to the decision f senators, a number of whom are rofessional negro-baiters. Meanwhile, bgroes are steadily being removed -Om office, and only one nomination ff;a colored man has yet gone to the enate. This was withdrawn at the equest of the nominee, and the op ortunity for a test case was lost. Both rover Cleveland and Theodore Roose- elt were confronted with similar op osition, but doggedly stuck to certain ppointees recess appointments. Mr, Vllson should not do less. As it is, is administration, so succe'sful In ther ways, has lost the confidence of he colored element in our citizenship nd many of their friends. f Unfortunately for the Post, however, here is nowhere for it to turn for re ef. The proposal for revision of Re ublican convention rules, however 'orthy, is In the last analysis a recog ltion of and acquiescence In the dis anchisement of the great mass of ne roes in the southern States. The " ost will not lose sight of this fact In a eeorch for a new allegiance. The ost might get off the Wilson reserva. on, but it can get on no other. THE RIGHT OP FREE SPEECH. ' The conviction of ao Industrial Worker of the World on the charge T "advocating the destruction of per nal property" during a silk mill rike In New Jersey moves the New ork Sun to some interesting reflec 3ns In support of Its conclusion that iii the subject of freedom of speech icre Is mucii loose thinking: It is announced that the case will appealed and that the present trial hastened to a conclusion by the Undent to expedite the decision of matter by the higher courts. u re la no need to point out that the tk i,lo animated Boyd In giving his (vice to hl hearers was the same i hat on which the Industrial Work- i f.f the World acted In this city In H l : 'img i b f"dth( y I 1 in nnd n 1 V Ihoory Mting to Its members to poison they prepared for guests In restaurants.

Of course we know that Cobb's a dandy; we all declare that he's the candy when in spiked shoes and trunks; he shines among the nation's batters, he's first in everything that matters but forty thousand plunks! There's joy on all our shining faces when Cobb cavorts around the bases on eager, rapid heels; he fills our martial souls with ardor as harder yet he sprints and ' harder but forty thousand wheels! No worthy gift has been de nied him, and other players seem be side htm as slow as motor trucks; he is too numerous to mention, he gives the game the needed tension but forty thousand bucks! That gold, when duly mined and smelted, would buy a duke or earl that's belted, -per haps a throneless king; what wonder that, when we are shopping, and fine the prices this way popping, we weep like everything?

With files the hunt for warm air and a comfortable winter resort is now taking precedence over the summer hunt for fopd. Breeding days are nearly over: The number that will get into the house is not large, but those that do get in will be. likely tp do more harm than the many that fly In and out In the summer. The reason is that those which do get into warm hiding places within the nxt few weeks will carry the species over until next spring. They will hiber nate in some cozy crack or other and when the warm weather comes again with its inviting zephyr breath they will venture forth to satiate all the hunger of an abstemious three or four months. These will be the progenitors of the 1914 generation. Klies in October have reached the stage where they could be made a dis appearing plague. The thing to do Is to duplicate the August effort to con trol them. It ought to be easier to fight a few flies than many. On the other hand, the October fly is trying harder to hide than is the August fly, In October It is more like a fly hunt than a fly flight. , Dr. Evans of Chicago says: "There are many women whp advocate the double standard for their homes one for bugs and another for flies. There are other women who run their homes on the single standard no bedbugs and no more files than bedbugs. Those tingle standard women have boasted of their homes during this summer season. They worked on the theory that the files came in the house for food. They kept their homes so clean that the flies found more food on the outside than In, and therefore did not try to get In thrpugh open doors or through holes In the screens. As the weather begins to get cool they are finding that their plan does not work so well. The reason la that the flies are now seeking the house for another reason: they want to keep warm. A clean house is nearly as much sought aner as a dirty one."

One of -the young' women recently wrote a letter addressed to the "Re gister of Vital Statistics of Raleigh," asking for such a certificate, but as there has been In this Btate until re cently no vital statistics law consid erable trpuble may be . experienced. In the future, however, there should be no difficulty In connection with such matters. On and after the 1st of October all births and deaths in the state will be registered : and made a 'matter of official record. The error of our ;! earlier' laws has been seen. After October 1 It will remain only for the people of the state to give the - officers charged with this duty all the assistance pps sible, for no matter hqw perfect the system may be there must be corop eration to make, . it effective.

(Baltimore Sun) Welcome to anything that will bring walking back into fashion Cheaper than gplf or tennis, any one can affcrd It, and it is mpre whole some than riding In automobiles or trolley cars. The suggestion that there be established here a "Wan derlust" society, like that In Phila delphia, to make : lns tramps through interesting regions near the city, has met with immediate re sponse. Baltimore itself abounds in spots of historic interest, and as for the country round about, visi tors admit that no other large city has suburbs that surpass ours in nat ural beauty or variety.. Perhaps it would be well to limit the membership of each , hikers' club to a hundred. If more than that the countryside might be alarmed under the Impression that an invad ing army was coming. The move ment only awaits for someone to start it. , All the paraphernalia need ed is a walking stick and a . man, But there is no need of waiting for a society to be organized. Just as much pleasure will be found in i half dozen or a score of friends walk ing together over the hills and through the forests and fields to some of the many points of natural pr historic interest. Or you can start it yourself without waiting for any one else, setting off like David Grayson In search of adventure along country roads. PRESIDENT TO REVIEW GREAT CAVALRY TROOP By Associated Press.
