I SATURDAY'S C IKCTLATION, 5,800. Clean up. word. That is the watch- Trie Wilmington Star thinks that Raleigh s new mayor Is a Wynne-r. Of course Governor Kitchiu will not return the compliment by ap pointing a republican. The Durham Herald savs: ' We know how the republicans leel over it, but would not attempt to express it." The Asheville Gazette-News thinks North Carolina republicans! are get ting a rough deal. One would judge from the tone of its remarks that it Isn't at all pleased with Civil Service uomm ssioner wmianis or judge Connor. Wilmington is to vote on a special school tax. It the tax tails to carrv her schools next, year will run but five months. We hope the good peo ple of Wilmington will do their dutv and vote for: the tax at the first op portunity and not have to pass through the experience that Ualelgn did. Ot course thev will vote the tax sooner or later, and thev might profit by Raleigh's experience, for the same conditions exist there as existed here, and vote it at once. ' North Carolina has a new industry for this section, a paper manufactur ing null. The plant Is located at New Bern and The Journal of that city is being printed on a product of the null. The paper is white and smooth and as good as the product of any mill in the count rv.. It is the purpose of the management of the null to eventually increase its producing capacity to 75 or 100 tons a day. The pulp used in the null at present is imported from Switzer land. The community and the state is to be congratulated on the build ing and operation of this enterprise. The state needs diversity in its man ufactories as well as in other lines. The greater the number of factories we have and the greater variety of their products the wealthier and the more substantial will our communi ties as a whole become. Raleigh stands higher in the esti mation of the people of the state to day than she has in twentv years; She had lost her prestige because of a self-satisfied policy on the one hand and a policy of inactivity and lack of progress on the other. But when she resolutely set herself to the solution of some of the problems that con fronted her and eradicated some of the evils her stock went up to par. Now she is face to face with another evil, that of unsanitary methods In handling the meat and the milk sup ply of the city. Wc have no fear hut that she will settle this problem as creditably as she has settled the oth ers that, have recently confronted her and that her stock will again take an upward turn. Clean, pure meat and milk are objects worth fighting for, and when the city gets them she will have reason to be proud of the victory over the present, method of handling this part of the food supply. GET THE I5EST. When the time conies for the nelec tion of the city officers it will be well for the hoard of aldermen to re member that upon these officers niuch depends. It Is of the utmost Importance that men be placed In authority who have the cause of re form at heart and who will do all in their power to make the new ad ministration a success. "A chain Is no stronger than Its weakest link" and it is equally true that an admin istration is weakened when any de partment of the work In its charge Is In Incompetent hands.

If the best men available are holding the positions now .keep them in office. If they are not -make a clean sweep of the present set, from the highest to the lowest, and get the best. If the best are not seeking officer-do like Mr. Taft did in the judgeship contest pick out the right man from the ranks of the non-combatants. The earnest seeker after office is not always the best 'man available. We need a city attorney who 'will do something more than sit down and wait for crime to come out into the lime-light, while he complacently draws his salary. We need a sani tary inspector who will do some in specting. We need a fire chief who knows how to handle' men and do the various other duties connected with his department in the very best way. We need a chief of police who Will make the nay of the transgressor hard. In fact. Raleigh is tired of drifting. She wants progress and will never again be content with the stagnation that has been the bane of her existence for twenty years. This paper is making no fight on any particular officer. If the board of aldermen feels that the city af-1 fairs are in the hands of the right j men. it will do right in keeping them in the service of the city. The liven ing Times sincerely desires that the new administration shall make good, and to this end wishes to see the very best men entrusted with the work of carrying out the reforms promised the people, PKESS COMMENT Jndge Connor's Appointment. rresidi'ii Taft arose above '.parti' 'Con siderations' yesterday when he appoint. ed.Judge Henry (';. Connm- of the North Carolina Supreme' Court to the vacan cy .'caused by the death of Thomas It. f urnell. He ehiise the best man fur the niece that could have been found In North Carolina, and the federal judK clary -in this state will, be the ablest of any in the south and as able as any in thi nation, -.ot, course '.the President's action 'will cause a lot of republicans to become, disgruntled, but this feeling should be of short duration. The appointment was expected yes terday and came as .no surprise. Al ready the scramble for a successor to Judge is on and the puhlle will he In terested in yet other Judgeships for seeral weeks, perhaps. We be'.ieve that President Taft will always be proud of his act of yester day. Winston-Salem Journal. Honie.owning by the People. In all the leading countries of Kurope systematic efforts are in progress to. facilitate the. securing of homes by peo of moderate means and to furnish sep arate dwellings at a cheaper li nt to the classes dependent on salaries and daily wages, The Consular reports to Washington from Kngland. Prussia and Austria are particular interesting in this res;iect as showing the progress made by the governments of hose countries in providing the poorer ele ments of their city populations." with comfortable and hygenic dwellings at a cost proportionate to small incomes. Lin Austria an entire reform of the method, of taxing real property .ias been undertaken, with a view to en couraging capitalist to construct small detached houses for workmen, and plans are well under way to facilitate the: ownership -of. homes by that ele ment. Coincidently, the congress of the United Mates is busily perfect ting legislation which will Im measurably lncrea.se. the burdens rest ing on the home seekers among the elements of1 citizenship' above referred to. The Adrich bill extends nrotectlve taxation to all the materials entering into building, and the result must be an enlarged cost of conHtructlng houses and a notable rise in rent charges, While the monarchlal establishments abroad are striving to better the con- rlltilinM rif t tin nnm .till lu M'mn b... nra . Intent on adding to the already exorbi tant profits of the producers snd man ufacturers, making the burdens heav ier on the people, and putting a damper on the natural desires of men to own their homes. It Is a mistaking policy which In our irnvprntnpnt U'A a ro nnrnnlniv I" - - !---" e. The value of home ownership is not appreciated asilt should b, The great. ""V" more than upon any other single caure, Whnt made Itome fall was not because she Kad heronrtR mltrtm nf th wnrUl out because the non-home owning ele- ' 'ment of her citizens ; had become so J largely predominant. A nation of ten- I antE. principally, cannot lung remain a great natiop. I If in our criminal statistics care should be taken to discover what pert itMiiuKf m ui line niusi oe. cnargea to' the non-jhome-ownlng class it would ' probably be a eye opener to those who have not given this matter thought, We have statistics to show what per- eentage of crime is to be charged to the : races, to the illiterate, to the foreign- bom citizen or to Intemperance, but none to enow how largely the non home-owing class is represented in the records. Yet observation will soon furnish proof of the fact that ,m v"' some crimes are committed. almost ex- other persons interested in the af eluslvely by people who do not own a. fairs of said corporation shall pre home, and of all crimes by far the sent and make proof to said Receiver largest number are committed by the 'of their respective claims against same class. If our people were all Baid corporation and, if they see fit, home owners there would be .compare-1 to make themselves parties to ' Baid tively little work for our criminal courts. To own his home tends to steady a man, ami to make him a better citizen. This will be readily admitted, and the effort should be as far as possible to increase the homo owning class, and to make laws which would naturally op crate to this end. In the most progressive of the Eu ropean' countries this is now being done. We -should do the same. Au gusta Herald. ST.
