President Coolidge wffl uk lower railroad freight rate and suggest that the roads can make up the difference by practicing economy. That is not the railroad idea, however. President Coolidge will T'd that railroad management and railroad wishes are a department f our Government, although not l.sted t, such, in the Constitution. T)fi voters, when less prosper ed times make thinking neces sary, will decide to have a govern ment running the railroads, in stead of railroads running the gov ernment. This is not Baid unkindly, or by an agent of bolahevism. The writer has a few thousand shares of rail load stocks, a few hundred thou sands in railroad bonds. But it is desirable for railroad men to real ize that it is not going to be mid Summer for ever. There is cold weather coming. Admirers of the late Theodore Hoosevelt will be interested in the statement, made by the authority of the family, that a newcomer rom the mysterious realms of the infinite is expected in the Long worth family. Mrs. Longworth was Miss Alice Hoosevelt. Those who have read Galton'g Heredity know that the greatnesB of the father is handed down through the daughter, not through the son. The new little Roosevelt Longworth may prove to be the reincarnation of Theodore. It will be interesting to see how his little teeth develop. Monsieur Laur, eighty-four year old, has invented the aero ."!d. 4116 French government will build a sample "aero line." The car, 7 feet high, 7 feet wide nd 40 feet long, is suspended be low a cable forty-two feet in the air, slung from poles far apart. Each car carries 100 passengers and the speed is fifty miles an hour.

The verdict of the coroner's jury was to the effect that Snipes was killed by a blow on the head with some heavy instrument. It is said there was some family trouble before Snipes disappeared and that Phillips figured in the matter. Bennie Womble, aged 22, son of G. W. Womble, Nash county farmer, disappeared last Sunday afternoon from his home and has not been heard from since.

It was made dry, and though water has been pouring in on it down there for eons it is still as it was. It is the mystery stone among the stones and until lately has not been esteemed of great value.

She can improvise suspender, nut picker, or use it to jab mashers, doctor an automobile, button tight gloves, inspect a faulty gas burner, test a cooked joint of beef, utilize it as an ice pick, tack puller, fruit pruner or anything else. She could even wire a house if she had enough hairpins! If Robinson Crusoe had been a woman, he would have built his hut and made a goatskin coat via the hairpin route. Now that the hairpin is becoming al most extant, one wonders what wo mankind will do when she has any thing to fix around the house. Wall Street Journal.

A young man named Rhinelander, whose people for several generations have not worked for a living and ure, there fore, called "aristocrats," married a young woman with negro blood. Her people have always w.nki-1 hard; therefore she is no nriti. crat. The young mini, a im y. d by publicity and by th Ku K'ux throwing stones through h,s win dow, now sues for anniilnn :.t of his marriage, savinr he ceived as to his brides rare. She told him nothing about the n gm blood. If the young woman in the ruse fights; the question of her c: -atltutional rights might be taken to the United States Suprem Court. New York State legalizis marriages between Africans an 1 whites. The young woman in th s case is nearly white. A maa in New York could not get a divorco on the ground that his wif had deceived him about a British or Celtic strain of blood.
