DEMOCRATIC STATESMEN.
.Some of -.the near-democratic and
republican ' pape'rshave been sorely
disturbed because they profess to be
lieve that, Jn. tbe,event that Hr. Bryan
should become president, he would
not have : . sufljcieiit " material with
which to form a cabinet capable of
carrying on the work of the govern
ment, filling the important foreign
posts and other offices in which men
of great ability are needed. They
profess to believe that the democratic
party has no great men, no states
men as compared with the party of
Roosevelt, Taft and Elihu Root.
That this Is the merest rot no one
half-way well informed needs to be
told, but The Washington Times so
effectively disposes of the .matter that
we cannot resist the temptation to
quote from it here. . The Times says:
It ought to be plain that republi
can editors are not miracles of as
tuteness when they underrate edi
torially the material at Mr. Bryan's
hand, should the country give him
opportunity to make - a cabinet. "
How do Lentz, of Ohio; the recent
Senator Pettigrew, Tom Johnson, the
3-cent-fare 'man, and the "Cowboy
Mayor of Omaha," compare, asks
one organ, with Ellfcu Root, Charles
J. Bonaparte, James; .R. Garfield, and
George von L, Meyer? The answer,
of course, is easy. Ail the democrats
hav to do is to ask in return:
HOw 'doxT.om Piatt, Billy Lorimer,
Boss Cox, and James P. McNicol, of
Philadelphia, compare" with Richard
Olney, Judson Harmon, George Gray,
aid Alton B. Parker?
, Let's be fair. Let's fight the cam
paign on the level and choose between
the things and men the two parties
actually represent. We shall find that
there are big men aplenty In Mr.
Bryan's party, as wall as in Judge
Taft's.. '".
. Here, for example, are some of the
names-th Peerless must consider for
his cabinet:
For secretary of state Richard Olr
ney, of Massachusetts, and Judson
Harmon, 'of Ohio."
for secretary of the treasury -M.
E.. Ingalls, of Ohio, and David R.
Francis, of Missouri. -,:
For secretary of war Luke E.
Wright, of Tenn3ssee, and John John
son, of Minnesota.
For attorney-general Joseph W.
Bailey, of Texas; Joseph W Folk, of
Missouri, and Wiliam J. Gaynor, of
New York.
For postmaster-General G. M.
Hitchcock, of Omaha; M. J. Wade, of
Iowa, and G. F. Wlliams, of Massa
chusetts. For secretary of the navy Hoke
Smith, of Georgia, and Bourke Cock
ran, of New York. -
For secretary of the interior
Francis O. Newlands, of Nevada, and
C. N. Haskell, of Oklahoma.
For secretary of agriculture
Theodore A. Bell, of California, and
Horace Bole, of Iowa.
For secretary of commerce and la
bor John Mitchell, of Indiana, and
Judson C. Clements, of Georgia.
I Not many cabinets have been
greater than one 'Which might be
Chosen from this list. It does not fol
low that Mr. Bryan will so choose or
that his ministry if he has opportun
ity to form one (which does not now
seem probablej will contain many of
these names t But this roll as it
stands exhibit the, utter littleness of
the ' iretmse, . wherever it be made,
that either of the two great Ameri
n' pfUPtl4 It poof In men of size.
Nothing need f be added to the
jlboreV yet we will ay in passing that
right here in North Carolina Mr.
Siyan ; could find -enough men with
the gift and power of statesmenship
to fill a 'whole cabinet portfolio. .

country. The town now has about
2,500 inhabitants and is growing
rapidly since the advent of the Nor
folk & Southern railway. It is the
county seat of Carteret county and
has all the advantages of railroad and
water transportation. In addition to
other opportunities there is not a
richer farming section anywhere
than that adjacent to Beaufort and
exceptional opportunities are offered
in the trucking industry. The peo
ple are the best. This will be seen
readily from the one fact that there
is not and. never has been a. county
home in the county because there
never has been any need of one, Ex
ceptionally situated, there is no rea
son why Beaufort should not become
one of the leading towns in eastern
North Carolina.
In the death of William Boyd Alli
son the country loses a remarkable
man one of Its leading statesmen.
He served in the senate longer than
any other man in the history of that
body, and it-was- not a perfunctory
service. He rendered able service to
his. state and the country. He was in
public" life many years before he went
to the senate serving four terms in
the house of representatives. He
:served six terms in the senate and
was the nominee of his party, and
would have been elected to a seventh
term. Of the more recent important
legislation in which he took a promi
nent part was the railroad rate meas
ure. ' He will be missed from the
councils of the body of which he was
the senior senator.
It is of interest to note the promi
nence given to North Carolinians in
the program of the Farmers' Natio
nal Congress, which meets this year
at Madison, Wis. . In addition to the
president, who is Col. B. Cameron,
of this city, the program con
tains the names of Governor Glenn,
Hon;' W.-W. fcitchln, and Dr. George
T. Winston, all of whom will make
addresses. The subjects for discus
sion before the congress embrace a
varied number of topics of interest to
the farmers and give promise of an
exceedingly Interesting session..
Splendid, effort is .being made to as
sure the comfort of those who attend
and this session, the twenty-eighth, is
expected to be the largest ever held.
Walton Van Loon, a venerable res
ident of Catskill, N. Y., publishes a
pamphlet undertaking to prove that
his ancestor, Plet Van Loon, discov
ered the Hudson river in 1581, or 11
years before Henry Hudson's voyage
in the Half Moon Piet van Loon
having entered the continent by-way
of the St. Lawrence and thence pro
ceeding southward into the Hudson"
river valley Charleston Post.
Set 'em up if. In the event that
Walton' succeeds in establishing his
claim, the Palmetto state papers do
not claim that Plot was born in the
subsequent state of South Carolina.
