Secretary Wilson, of the National Department of Agriculture, is over i seventy-five yean of age. He became V cabinet officer when the majority of Mr. Waft's present oflicial staff were; 60 to speak, in swaddling clothes. Presidents come,, and Presidents go. Secretary Wilson stays on the job, by virtue of repeated invitations. He ia known as the perennial cabineteer. Whatever happens in politics, whatev er changes of. ' sentiment are aroused .throughout the- country, 'Secretary Wilson is alike ; unperturbed himself and unjostled by change and turmoil. Under his direction the Agricultural "Department i remains the one "impor tant function of the government that is steady in policy and unchecked n 'progress. . v ' ' At Durham .the other day Secretary Wilson made an address, . in.which7he urged education "for the farm, rather than away fromIL He pointe"3! out , what thoughtful men everywhere must realize that the economic history of the country as an exporting nation is ' Jihjortly to be changed to meet the dif- fering requirements- of ; an .importing ' nation, unless there shall be a renew ed and marvelous increase in the out put ot the .'.farms. Consumption has all but' overtaken supply. The recent phenomenal prices of. wheat and cot ton'.have more behind them,-that spec ulation, even than an 'accidental short crop. These prices of staple food and V the staple that" Is the basis of the clothing of the world mean' that, with I ' increased power of consumption;, with . increasing prosperity, with increasing capable of producing the foodstuffs '' life, the country has reached the point .' where it will soon be a question whe- j- ther or nbt it can raise its own bud- port from.lhe ground.. Of1 the, cotton crop,. the South, now consumes In its own 'mills nearly one-half more than Is consumed by the New England mills.'. ,The dajr when American manu factories will be iii the market for eve ry bale of cotton raised in ihe South has . already "dawned. The' duy when .the vast fields'pthe West will be in capable of- producing the feedstuffs needed by the country is fh the near future. In the light of these economic facts, the duty and the responsibility of 'agriculture was never greater oi clearer. . fr " The reason why Secretry .Wilson has remained at the hea'd of his" de partment is that from the beginning he has set the example of running a great, phase of governmental activity upon business -principles. 'He' has turned his department into a business 'organization. 'He' has bent the ener gies of its experts and expended the propriatfons - he receives Into in- crxasmg production and bettering j-:. j methods. - Politics has no place under ' Xf his management. Effectiveness and f education have' hppn iha nratrhwnrila .. " . , .. w.v.. . s a result the Agricultural Depart- vment, organized as an experiment has : ' doubtless returned to . the people ten ; ; dpllars"Tfo every , dollar it has cost. f ; No phase of agriculture is too difficult ? -to ' gain -.the department's attention. ? Its agents scour the earth for new plants. . The 60ils of the country are constantly under the microscope. The ,i ! ppssibilitieajof. the country in the r great consummation of making the land produce to its limit are never out ' - of-md. The .department, from being ' the feost; theoretical,' has become the ..'most; practical. ; . ' ' - Thejrpnderful part of the whole matter is that Secretary Wilson is a farmer; ,Herff,: however, a scientific , farmer. : He and his department look upon- uie iarp as a Dusiness enter -prise. They treat Its problems' ijl the ; same , "terms' ipf" close finance, the ; same measure of broad outlopk. They .experiment, Hevise, adapt. When; the " 'people of the country shall have learn- ;ed to educate, themselves, as he says v for,' thg farm, they will learn that, treated as, a business, there is no line ' of " eiideay or " possible of such return. The jday of the slipshod farmer, as the , day of the careless business man has' iVoweyer, passed. ; We are tending to exact science on thefiarm as -well as in " the huslness , house. If the day whenithe balance of trade Bhall shift from export to import is to be longer delayed, the glory of preventing' such an apparently ; inevitable, development : will, be ilaid. largely . to; the ..credit of tali- old, 'man, perpetuarofilce-holder I who has made a business' of JWsoffice, 1 where he might have ; made it into a "department of,j?olitics,;;-r .$S, THEIPRESIDENT. Wilmlngton is today to ' engage in giving "the Pijesldentjof the United States a typipal North' Carolina wel come. It is . responsibility that has been well understood; we .believe that it. will be ably accepted. If there shall be sustained in. the entertainment of Mr. Taft that Quality of -hospitality with dienity that Is characteristic of the better traditions of the Southern nature, we feel eertaln,,' also, that the Chief Executive' ff, the country,1 not wlthstandlngpthe fact that he has now been, for Months "on the road",: will find that in the greeting .extended him which shall' flxthe city of Wilmington and the State of North Carolina plea3 urably In his mtnd. -, , ; ' Certainly there will be" every reason apparent to hinv why it. Is -important and desirable that the President of the United States should; be here. Certainly the situation "of Wilmington cannot' fail to' impress him; Surely he must see' and appreciate the possi bilities of the noble and historic ;Cape Fear. indubitably will be find In. theTpress upon all who see in the new era attitude of the people who. willgreet him i the habit of a perfect courtesy. To moet such, a collection of friends and well wishers as will be in this city today is enough to give a real thrill to the most jaded sensibilities.: - With Wilmington behind,, him, the President will have practically met face to face the people of the country; North, East, West and ISouth. - Such experience cannot have failed; to make him ? broader and a bigger man. r Ne cessarily, he has come, better to under stand what this country is what it means, what It stands for. Such a trip has given him a broader charity, more universal sympathy with men and with ' conditions. It has served! too, to cement the ' people in under standing of their President. It has made the government '.visible to thou sands to 'whom it had been' nothing more than a name. It has added that touch of personal interest Which is the back-bone of real and lasting patriot ism. , The President has doubtless found .'.all Americans pretty ,-much alike; "it.. is even more certain .that Americans generally have found him easy in manner vand likable in per sonality. .In Mr.Taft's entertainment!, today et it be hoped that the State will be true to itself In the character of the reception it will give. There will na turally be enthusiasm about the'meet- ng. There will naturally be in . evi dence the holiday spirit inseparable from public events of this sort The President will seem very' closev His importance as a man will,' if such a thing be possible, be magniflesS,' and enlarged. Yet, let nothing hapen on this account to permit the "city and the State to - lose in that dignity .as becoming in a host'as!in"k,'guest'.' Let there be no -restraint in hosnitality.4 but natural and cool-headed re straint in utterance. For some too enthuslasttC'lfldtTldual'b Jflo or say something that "he does' hot ""mean 1 which' .yet the commulbity :weuld -have to shoulder would be as regrettable and- In as bad taste as if the President himself should forget the relationship growing out pi ms visit to, promise! this and say that which might serve to rob his better utterance of that spirit of sincerity In'-which ; lies Jts greatest, in fact, its "oriiy alu. -4 'I J. we wm nave clone well If, when-the President goes away, he shall have re ceived att our own hands the clean, modest and unostentatious welcome which is.a charm of which the South holds the key. r, . V ' I THE SEABOARD OUT OF THE WOODS, r - . We referred some time ago to the remarkable f acC; 'that the Seaboard Air Line was being returned to " its directors, -.'after a receivership of twenty-two months, without the neces sljy'of any sacrifice, and , with its se curities more valuable after than be fore the receivership. It ; Is not put ting it too strongly-to say that this Is ah achievement absolutely unique : in the history, not only of Southern, but of all railroads' in the Country. The average receivership has been a-gobd method of finally killing a slok dog. Under" Its operation property "after property, representing the hopes and fortunes of -far-sighted men, the sav ings of; multitudes of 'poor and im practical people, have been wiped UP so dry that they did not. even leave a damp spot to indicate where their as sets had been spilled. ' When the Sea board went the way of its predeces sors, it was but natural to; supose that an6ther ; good property had ' been run down . to. a , state of demoralization to order that it might take, its place, at a ridiculous price, in the scheme '-ok some company of capitalists ready' to make, .a new. system from the wreck of the old v . ; - , - Thfl return of . the f3eahnovl lact week ; was, ! therefore; surprising and! more than gratifying. It indicates a J tneir norees? - : . . -hew develomnent of financial honeatvvl tV-- J. '.- " 1 J '4,'.' It means, almost, that the ideal has been proved possible. In its case that idea upon : which i receiverships., are based that "they will conserve - the assets and. protect, the, creditors was fully' consummated."- The end of the receivership .marks a new precedent In American corporate -history. . , 'As we polnled out, this achieyemenv was7 wrought by SoutheniJ men. There j.aem. P'.W' 'co w nry, .Virginian long" known as a j man : of affairs In his native State;! .Lancas ter Williams is a younger brother, qf that John Skelton. Williams, in whose brain, the Seaboard system was born, and -tcywhoxn the South is expectantly looking ' as the ner President of thb road ; E" Carl. Duncan :was raised In fBeaufortr is a North Carolinian to the finger-tips, Van unassuming man ., of business. Their personal triumph is, pf course, a large one. But tbe great er interest to the public lies even above and' beyond the return of the road to those who made it, even . be yond the arrangement of its finances upon, a basis where increased earn- lings and, greater operating economy guarantee success and dividends. This greater. Interest lies in ' the warrant heldv, out ; to Southern capital to en gage in railroad , building with reason able expectation that some'thlng' more shall come of j;heir money than to con struct, a line of railroad for others to exploit. , In-this there is much of hope and courage for .'the South, a develop ment that we -acclaim and would im- of higher; prices and plentiful money the earnest of that advancement and business stability toward - which the South .has ' been ' slowly, working, to which it is daily more alive. . . TO THOSE WHO WOULD. DIG OUR i5 grave. - . ; . .Some of the Star's""county exchang es have recently1 jumped to the conclu sion that, because this paper has seen fit. to comment upon thes recent move ment to bring out ex-Governor Robert B: GJenn, as the Prohibition party's candidate for the Presidency the Star is i ' thereby aligning itself with the movement for a re-submission of'the question of Stated prohibition. ' Only a very carelessr reader or a very'fweak intellect could draw any such conclusion from anything which has appeared in the Star under " its new management So' far from, being "against prohibition"; this paper' has incidentally announced several times that it Is in favor of the law, both be cause it is the law and ought to be obeyed, in letter and . spirit, and also because- we -conceive that the further agitation . of , no question could be so harmful td all the better interests of the Stafe. The people' who would con-i00111111116"11 ha,s fecol?e almost - , , it - , f as bad as it ;was in .the degenerate tinue.to agitate for further liquor leg-rdav8 of Athens and Rome. when. men Islation .are In our opinion indulging rnarte their living by serving on juries, a dangerous course and are inimical We believe that a radical reform of to all the better impulses now finding ! our. manner of. selecting andprovid . t .... r: , 'inr jurymen -as ' necessary. perhaDS expression In the State. The question p.nn am 'nmniisi. W is one that arose by reason of the vital fhterest which the people had In it It has been settled by -a decisive ma jority. We&ope that It will stay set tled, and;that the. great hody of the' people ttill frown upon 'any and all ef forts to reopen It, whether such ef forts are inaugurated, by people whose desire 1 to return the saloon, or by people 'who, engrossed with one Idea In (an "eraV of progress; and '. business, would continue to find issues where there ought to be n6ne. It wfes neces- saryinthe .interests of, peace tQ'jleal with he liquor quesUdn; how'that we have dealt ; with it, r'tbe man who would create" further discprd is a dan gerous factor, whether he proceeds up on the premise of. an unsatisfied pro hibitionist or ar disgruntled opponent of this new and problematical" policy. fW,e "Conceive that the State", has better' and higher things to -think about than this.-; - -' "f Cr'-' ' , As' for ex-Governorf Jllenn we, wish tosay ,;now that we reserve the right to smile at him, or criticise hini;when eyer,' &i he has so. frequently1. done, hja 'forgets the' . party , that 'made him prominent- lie !nas been t well paid by the' Democracy. His preseiit vogue upon the profitable lecture ' platform comes as the result of party lay of and party appreciation,'; We ha,te ; had enough experience with ''great men", however, to have confidence in .the general assumption that greatness lies' more in ppportunity. than in charac ter. The attitude that "the.

" J JBut to read Into our words of amuse ment or criticism of Robert Broadnax Glenn the announcement of . a policy" which ws haije not only not pronounc ed, ;but with all plainness 'of diction expressly . repudiated, is an achieve, ment speaking poorly, .for the Intelli gence, or j the fairness of those who have pulled off such an illustration of mehtai acrobatics v v "7-: rV 4 There -is a 4 great slump Jin the Re publican majority' in Boston.

The attorneys for the defendant .then declared that they would accept a verdict declaring their client guiUy of 'manslaugbier', which was- another wav of . saving that their client would plead guilty to an Indict ment, for . manslaughter. " Such a plea is well within the rights of the defend ant. .-. -w .i-' .

Fortunately, the judge nappenea to be the right kindpf a judge and he proceeded to tell this juryman a few things which he ought to have . khoWp before. Likewise the judge-reached the conclusiont that - thte;' jury 'rwas worthless .and was about' to 'order - a mlstrial, when the belligeranK fore man asked permission for the jury to withdraw. It did withdraw and presently- returned twith. a veTdict of' man slaught". -The court sentenced -the. defendant to. four 5 yeard and' '"8!x..

"There haveeu "juries just as frivolous, with just-as much', disregard for. the dignity.; and seriousness of 'their positions. We 'shall continue to have such juries as long as citizens persist in, getting ex cused from jury duty, or aTej-exempt by law. South. Carolina is little, better In this particular than Chicago.
