Sea Girt, July 29. Governor Wil son is expected at his summer home tonight. His secretary, Joseph Tu multy, announced that he would go down to the Jersey coast today to a small inlet to meet the private yacht on which the governor and his wife have been spending the past few days. The governor will remain on the vessel until some time late this afternoon, when he will disembark, further up1 the coast, and proceed by automobile to ea Girt. The speech of acceptance is com pleted. The speech goes to the printer tohiorro w. At Trenton, where Wilson spends tomorrow, the governor will meet Lewis Needon, the shipbuilder. Senator Smith, of South Carolina, and former Lieutenant Governor Ellyson, of Virginia. The rest of the week will be a busy one. Many distinguished men are expected here during that period. The location of the Inlet Is as much a secret as the name of the vessel which bears the democratic presidential nominee. After Mr. Tu multy has transacted his business -with the -governor he will land. The yacht will steam out and head for another haven up the coast. The governor will land during the after noon and come by motor to Sea Girt. A week will have elapsed since his departure to seek seclusion in which to write his speech. It will be the governor's first public com ment on the democratic platform as an entirety. It will be delivered here August 7, at the ceremony of notification. If the day is fine the governor probably will talk from a little knoll in his yard beneath a group of elms. While the governor has declined to forecast his speech, it Is known definitely here that the tariff will be dealt with as the leading issue. In close relation to this the governor places the high' cost of living. The latter he Is said to regard as but a development of -the- present tariff system. There are other points he has intimated with which he will deal. Friends of the governor In the light of his past utterances on this question assert that the governor will declare in his speech for a tariff for revenue and not for free trade, and will urge a gradual rather than a sweeping reduction In tariff sched ules until the tariff becomes actual ly an instrument for revenue, as ho defines the word, and not for pro tection. There is no doubt In their minds that the governor will devote some portion of his speech to the relations between what he calls "big business" and the tariff. They point to speeches made by tne governor before his nomination In which he declared that the growth of "big business" has made the tariff theories, as originally pro pounded, antiquated; and upon these declarations they base their forecast. The governor expects to go to Trenton Tuesday and has several ap pointment! with party leaders there during the day. His appointment book for the remainder of the week also la well filled.

Crown I'nnco V oshiliito, succeeded to the thr.ine. His Imperial majesty, Mutsuhilo. was the 121st emperor of Japan. He wiib liorn at Kyoto on the .ird of No vember, 152, and was the second son of the Kinperor Komoi. In IM0. seven years before his father s death, he wus declared heir apparent. He ascended the throne as a boy of fif teen, and on that occasion gave his solemn promise to grant same form of representative government. He fulfilled that promise in the most llboral manner and thus gave to his country, its new birth. He is ac claimed by the entire world as the father of modern Japan. Under the reign of the late Mika do, Japan underwent almost mirac ulous changes. From the very first he displayed Intuitive genius in fash ioning the political nffairs of his peo ple and In forging out the destiny of his empire. So deeply did he impress his own countrymen, that they have, almost with one accord, proclaimed him the greatest man of his generation, and some of them go so far as to say, of all time. Although Mutsuhlto did nit at first Impress his personality upon the outsldo world, he did evince rare acumen In calling around him a group of the ablest men in his em pire. These he called the 'Elder Statesmen,'' and under their wise council, the Mikado saw his country develop Into a world power almost In a night. The two most conspicuous events of his long reign were the wars with China and Russia, both of which, was all the world knows, terminated happily for him. , ,While Mutsuhlto was a liberal and constitutional monarch who threw the doors of his country wide open to western civilization, there never was a time that his subjects regard ed him as less than a god. To him s.nd his virtues they attributed all thel( victories in war and trlumpa In peace. '. -. The married life of the mikado was said to have been exceptionally happy.

It was driven over the citys streets at a rapid rate of speed and there was no alleyway in the city that : the big truck could not make. It took all hat Fire Chief Sherwood Brock well suggested, and on the better streets the truck ran at the rate of 59 miles an hour. The truck, made bv the La France people, is the property ''of Orange burg, S. C, and was brought to Ral eigh from - Fayetteville, where the firemens tournament was held, for the purpose of demonstrating Its capabilties, Those who rode In the big red car were convinced that It could go, as its demonstrators claim ed, "anywhere horses can pull a wagon."
