' ' The Free Press extends congratulations to the "boys" Who made the fine records at Raleigh Wednesday, at well aa the noble eteeds .who pulled them to victory. The aeniority rule must give way for fltnesa for th work in the army, aa the Colonel and LieutenantJColone, of tlie 6ith Now Yirk National Guard have experienced It would be well that the example of the army could b followed In other branches of th Government's workings The whole state should Join In with Raleigh to lam" one of thi farm loan banks for North Carolina.

The Montana editors are holding an unique convention; they art, traveling over their Statejn a week'a tour in Pullman care." ;, Quite evident that there are no intra state anti-pass laws operative In ht' neck of the woods, , The full eaaualty list of thiaijweekVexcursiona out of Ainaton have not as yet been compiled. However, the "ras'oor" and gun clan have claimed no more victims than usual, we are led to believe from the first reports. of the English language. And the same might bo (salt of other foreigners who hivjnrjf twj tfVlfy OJf World, and "who are making good, it Is, or tourse, pos sible for tho language to be acquired afterwards, but h ia nevertheless a decided advantage to have some knowl edge on arrival. The view of the German author is near-sighted. Ger many cannot five to itself nor can any other nation The fabric of the world's structure is not such that i fence can bo thrown around any part of it, and the peopl therein live all to themselves, unless they do so to thei: own detriment and stagnation. It is natural that then should be a feeling of animosity to those things whid may be in common with the enemy, but such will disap rear as timu goes on. and the marks of the war are A. '.ilk rubbed out TOO IMPORTANT FOR SMALL POLITICS. It is unfortunate that legislation so important, as th protection of children from being worked too young ii "he mills of the country, should be made a sectional mat ter, and the representatives of the South be array igainst those of the North in the fight t Boys and girls of tender years should not be work n the mills, where their physical as well as coital de elopment jis stunted. The United States owes it not inly to the growing generations, but to itself that the youth be given a fair chance to develop physically and mentally to be full-grown men and women, possessed of ill the faculties of mind and body that God haa endowed .hem with. There should be no aectionalism in the fight to throw iround these boys and girls necessary protection. The eople of the South value the worth of the full developed toy or girl as much as do the people of any other section, 'jid it the politicians and muck-rakers, who have ever tried to color the situation with reference to the South, vill get out of the way, there is no reason why the con gressmen and senators of all sections cannot get together nd pass righteous legislation governing thia question. The welfare of the boys and girls of America is too mportant yes, far too important--to have legislation looking to it made a football of politics and sectional iifference. ' WHAT OTHERS SAY TO SAY NOTHING OF HEALTH SITUATION. Rocky Mount Telegram: "For the amount of cash out ay necessary there wouldn't be anything that would pro luce better returns in the impression upon the visitor or he newcomer to our town than a cutting of the high veeds on some of the vacant lots of our city.' The prev alence of a crop of weeds on vacant lots is not confined to ny particular section, or is It any respecter of values. We can find you just about as good a crop on the lot worth 5200 a front foot as we can on the lot worth $2." If anybody can compare the fighting ' forces of the world in an interesting and non-technical way, William G. Shepherd,' the versatile tf correspondent of the United Press, who has vlsited-practically every war front In .Europe and aeen at close ranp the fighters of every ountry in astion, should be 'able to furnish an interest ing at A instructive series of articles.' Mr. Shepherd, as announced in the news columns of Wednesday's Free Press,' is now on the Mexican1 border, sislng up Uncle Sam 'a forces and ha aeries of"rMcles will soon appear in The Free Press and other United Press papers. A NEAR-SIGHTED VIEW. ..' The abolishment of the teaching of French ami (English in the schools of Germany, as proposed by a prominent German author, would, we believe, work more to the hard ship and disadvantage of the Germans than to anybody else. .Many a German has come to America and boon able to aecuro lucrative employment because of his knowledge THE ORPET CASE. Wilmington Dispatch: "No doubt, tlie verdict of 'not guilty' returned for Will Orpet was proper, but that he should escape punishment at the hands of man ,for what ever foul deed he committed, though it did not reach the extent of murder, is not proper. There should be some way of reaching men of the Orpet stripe. Technically, within the meaning oS the law, he did not murder Mar ion Lambert, the youitg high school girl he had made a plaything of, only to cast her off, but he did kill her. There are other ways of murdering than sinking a knife into the heart of a person or sending a bullet to the heart An unkind husband, a wayward son and a traducer of woman can deliver as fatal blow as can the midnight assassin, or the murderer who lies in wait for his vic tim. So Orpet is guilty of murder, though the law does not recognize it and could hardly define it as such, due to complications that would arise. "Orpot probably did not administer poison to Marion Lambert, but he committed an offense that forced her to end her own life. Orpet was responsible, though it is true that the young woman shared the responsibility for her tragic end, and in this latter is presented an exam ple for wayward young women, showing them that there is an alluring glitter that but masks the pitfall; that the 'wages of ain is death. -win e Orpet escapes on the charge of murder it is a shame that he should be allowed to go free of all human punishment. There is consolation, however, in the thought that he cannot escape paying a penalty. He cas not cast out conscience." ' HOLM. BWEDKX.
