The seventh case of bubonic plague has been reported from New Orleans. The action of other gulf ports in es tablishing a rigid quarantine, since the outbreak of the disease, was wise for it seems in spite of the prompt action of the authorities, ' there Is much more contagion thtm was at first anticipated. If Mexico continues to settle its ex-presidents in Paris and they suc ceed in making their get away with as much of the muzuma as did old Man Dfaa and the "late" Mr. Huerta the position of expresldent will be de cidedly in the nature of a promotion and continual rotation in office may be looked for.

He has failed to ring true in a "good many instances. . ... His position with reference to the Diggs-Caminetti case was nevei sa tisfactorily explained to . the public and hfi attitude toward the investi gation of big business, particularly the methods of the New Haven rail road system, failed to give .to the po ple any assurance that he was the man for Attorney General or was of that calibre' for any such high posi tion. In fact it is the opinion of many people that he has 'been a la mentable failure and that he has shown none of those qualities, which measure up to the high standard of the President, Mr. Underwood, Mr. Simmons, Mr. Bryan and other lead ers of the administration. A'1 very strong fight would be waged before his nomination for . the Supreme Court could be confirmed. ' TODAY'S QUOTATIONS PRODUCE. Sale cf Valuable Real Estate.

'' No better evidence of , a city' growth can be had than the1 increase in its water and light receipts. Kin ton's figures for these necessities show an increase of more than 15 per cent., for the fiscal year ending May 1, as compared ' with the year Immediately preceding; and for the Jfour 'years - preceding of more than w per cent, v n . ; tne .amount taken tn from water' and lights was 2fl,C31.84-and in 1914 830,795.81. The cost of operating in 1913 exceed ed by a few dollars the amount taken In but In 1914 there was a" margin f $8,835.69. r ' MR. THOMAS' WITHDRAWAL, y ' The withdrawal of Mr. Chas. R. Thomas from the congressional race lnthe third district - makes it un neceisity for a run off primary nd leaves the field to Mr Geo. E. Hood, who was declared the nominee by the notorious Goldsboro convention some weeks ago. Mr, Thomas sets forth hi reason for withdrawal in a very dignified statement ' in which he at tacks the machine methods of the third district committee. He calls attention to the excessive fee of $1,000 which the candidates, are re quired to pat up and to thehh hand d arrogance of power of the commit, tee. : As Mr. Thomas says, the fight in the third district is a good evidence, of uim viiit utoj ,i ii suic wiye iv)(ai- Ued primary as can be found. Mr. Hood enjoys a tflendidreputatim and from, all reports is a man of hifh antone character but he will add nothing to the luster of his career fcy accepting the nomination a It now Is offered to him. Far better for him, too, to withdraw and demand that the people be given a chance to express their choice; so; that. there sftlf be fca taint cr icstlon ta .the title of the nom'neo. 4.

' In handling of the slugs which make up the lines in a .newspaper, and in separating the various items, themak- tp man sometimes gets the lines mix ed up and they' naturally read rather queer. As an illustration of what can happen, we cite the mixup of the Bangor (Pa.)
