Why not move Hie ni:iil:i Greensboro. to The country will have a lot to Rive thanks for this time. The Greensboro News is certainly doing nicely for the last few days. Let us make the movement for a national driveway to the cemetery unanimous. Thanksgiving, Christmas, and then comes the legislative. It is said everything comes in threes. Caleb Powers, of Kentucky, will yet find it a hard task to get com fortably seated in congress. And they have actually painted one of the street cars. Nothing was ever needed worse in t'il:i city. Selfishness will have to be elimi nated from the bosom of our people before this will ever be a great city. We predict that at the next session of congress a member can get up to speak without having to get permis sion beforehand . Armour says the price of meat and other things to eat is coming down. Glad to even hear about it, but we had rather see the thing actually happen. If there had been a few more Can nons and Roosevelts in the republi can party there would not have been a thing left but Taft, practically nothing as it is. If all the people who will be finan cially interested in the location of the market were eliminated the kicker's chorus would dwindle down to about a dozen. It would probably be the wisest thing for the Hon. Champ Chirk to wait and consult the democrats about revising the tariff before he an nounces what "we" are going to do about it. If the next legislature comes along and finds that old market house still here they will have an Idea that Ral eigh does not want any improvements at all and the next thing we ask for we will have to give bond to do it. "A prominent merchant' said today: VI have changed my mind about foaming the streets of our city ac cording to the plan suggested by the Merchants' Association,,' f Alr"?rst I was opposed to 4tV 'tiut' the more. I have studied it theVmore I am in fa-- V . vor of the change. I have heard a number of business men say the same thing. Public opinion is al most unanimous for the change. In my opinion, and I have lived here for 20 years, it would be the greatest forward step Raleigh has ever ta ken." And so it goes all over the city. The business people see the need of such a change as suggested It would make a great difference in our city. There are many good reas- ons for the change, and not a single reason against it. . HOME FOR WOMEN. The following from the Statosville Landmark is worth thinking about "The following appears in th Charlotte Chronicle: I saw some time ago where th good women were preparing to get up a fund to erect a monument in memory of the old womqn of the Confederacy, and it appeared to me that it would be so much better to build a home to take care of the old women who are left, and 'et it stand as a monument, so I commenced asking others what they thought about it. Of all I have asked (which are many) I have not found one that does not agree with me. So let us have a home that we and our child rcn and grandchildren and their children will be proud of and will prove a blessing to the present and coming generations. All who ap prove of this plan will please let the Chronicle know by saying so on postal. R. H. MORSE.' "Mr. R. H. Morse is by some re garded as a crank. Maybe he is, but n the above he is eminently sound The Landmark has wondered . for years why some philanthropist did not see the pressing need for the work Mr. Morse suggests, and pro vide it; why people and organizations do not build a memorial that will help the living, those in need of help, instead of putting so much in brass and stone. This paper believes in monuments, but there are times when the monument would better be built of something else than brass or stone. The home Mr. Morse suggests would be the best monument that could be built; and the good it would do can never be estimated. "We have many orphans' homes but none too many; homes for the old soldiers and other benevolent in stitutions. But there are in everv community old ladies who are home less often through no fault of their own; Many of them are intelligent and educated; they have served their day and generation well; but to ward the end, through force of cir cumstances, they find themselves homeless. To them the average county home is a horror. The accom modation offered might be entirely agreeable, but the association of the class usually sent here would be an added misery. Why not build home for these old people?" It would be a God-send to them and a fitting memorial. The Landmark has thought much on this subject for years and wished that the way would open. If somebody wil start a sub scription list this paper will under take to find $100 for the fund.' We thoroughly commend the idea of building a monument to the wo men of the south, commemorating the brave part they played in the war between the states. The storv of those days and the part the women took in it should be told in marble. But in doing that, in building the monuments, and we believe plans are under way now which insure the building of the monuments, the ma terial need of some of the living should not be neglected. Should not be neglected longer, we should say. North Carolina can do and should do both. : But if she is only going to do one now the suggestion of Mr. Morse, crank though he may be, and the endorsement of that suggestion by the Landmark are worth thinking about. One thing the legislature should do and that is make provision for the wives of old soldiers who are at the Soldiers' Home. Room should be provided for these women at the Home and husband and wife should be taken care of together. These old people should not be separated now The Home certainly can't be much of a home to the man who has to leave the companion of a lifetime behind (n; order to enter its doors. The legis lature should remedy this and make provision for both the old soldier and his wife, as is done in Mississippi and maybe other states. But- after that is done the work will not be half completed. There will still remain many more. And after all the veterans and their wives are gone there will be still many noble women who will find it im possible to provide for themselves In old age. ' A home lot these women for all time would be a proper me morial to those other women who rendered their share of service in the great conflict between the states. Press Comment Coining Drainage Coiiveiiion. Tlio Irainagc question throughout North Carolina does not umne em brace the movoment for the drainage of swamp lands, but it involves On importance of draining all our land uplands us '.-well as lowland. This question must be considered from scientific standpoint .-and there is n better way for the farmers of North Carolina to get posted on the valu and importance of drainage than to attend the third annual meeting of the North Carolina Drainage Assocn tton to he held in Wilmington, begin nig November 21st and continuin three days. The. Hon. J. A. Drown of Ohadbourn, president of the Drain age Association, writes the Star: I desire to thank you for the art! cles that have recently appeared i The Star on the question of drainagi This is a question of such vital nn portanee to the whole state, and A pecially to the territory tributary Wilmington, that we cannot have too much agitation. It is my ambition to make this convention the largest in the history of the association, and I will appreciate it very much if you will keep up a systematic agitation until after the 21st. One thing tha I wish to call especial attention to J that most of the papers treat this matter as swamp drainage, or th reclamation of swamp lands. Draip age is ol equal importance to me av craee land now under cultivation, and is the first that should receive atten tion. as it will so materially increase the viekl. and do so at very mueh less cost than It would should we at tempt to drain the swamp lands first If the idea prevails that the drainage question, is only applicable to swamp lands, neonle will not take bold of it so- universally as if treated in a gen ei-al wav. A much larger per cent, of the people are more vitally interest d in properly drained uplands than they are in reclaiming swamp lands. President Brown calls attention to in Important teature oc tne uraiim.m- movement. That is that It covers tne entire question of drainage, a matter which we have heitofore emphasi.- d. Some of the best uplands we have seen in North- Carolina badly need 'drainage and in many instances our farmers no not recognize it mi of their lands, which apparently are welt drained, could be vastly improv (I and made more productive and val liable, by scientific drainage, terracing and diking, and all these questions will be interestingly discussed at the forthcoming drainage convention in Wilmington. Among the distlnguish- d speakers to be here will be a drain age expert of the National Agriciiltur- 1 Department. , Drainage Cnmnn sinner J. . wrtgiit, Mate -lieoi-ogifi Joseph Hyde .Pratt. ..-Congressman hn H. Small, and others. All tin ounties in the state should send del ecates and cet in touch with this great question. President HrowiV writes that he is receiving letters from a good many of the county commissioners through out the state informing him that they re appointing delegates and hope to have a great attendance at his con nl ion. WilmiiiBton will be glad to have '"a grct attendance att his eon ntion. not onlv because of the im- lVrtance of thus progressive miner- taking, but becaus" It will annru ini people of ' Wilmington pleasure to have in their .midst, the substantial North Carolinians who are coming here ' either bv appointment or be cause thev desire to come aim i reive the benefits to be derived from the convention. Wilmington is getting ready to en- ertain the convention in line mjic. nd among the pleasures being ai anged for the entertainment of her isitors ttill be a trip down the his toric Cape Fear and swiit troie-y iles to Wrlahtsville Beach. I?e sure to come to Wilmington when the con ..ntion meets on Monday of next eek Morning . Star. The Lone Socialist. For the first time in the history of this country, a member of the organi: d socialist party lias been elected to the national house of representatives. Triumphing over democratic and re publican opposition, Victor L. IJerger. socialist, was elected on Tuesday ns a representative from Milwaukee in the house. Those who have paid slight attention to the spread of socialism know- but little, if anything, of this man: but to the students of American politics his name is synonymous with all that is sane in socialism. Me is an extremely intellectual man and does not affect the wild speech or the uncouth ways of the "parlor socialists," nor the ab surd pose of play-socialists on the order of Upton Sinclair. Berber has a strong mind, is steady, and can be counted upon to appeal to reason and reason alone while-a member of the popular body of the national legisla ture. He is a practical newspaper man by profession. He . was born In Austro Hungury and was educated at the Universities of Budapest and Vienna, but financial reverses compelled his family to emigrate to America. Berger began his lifework here In the land of the free Iri various trades. Then he was a teacher In the public, schools. In 1892 he became editor of the Mil waukee Daily Vorwaerts, of Wahrheit (German), and of the social democrat ic Herald (English). Berger was a "pioneer organizer of the socialists" He was a delegate to the People's Tarty Convention In 1896, and since then has been active in all socialist political movements. Many pamphlets spreading the socialist propoganda have come from his pen. Unsuccessful as socialist candidate for mayor of Milwaukee and congress in 1904, he re ceived five votes for United States Senator the same year In the Wiscon sin legislature. His election at this time is signifi cant of the growth of socialist political strength. The socialists are .-. widely J iV.

Merger . will be one of many human units clamoring for a voice, but he. will be heard. It was his brain that di rected the election in Milwaukee when its first, socialist mayor was elected. Whatever his views, there can be no denial of. his forceful, personality. Tinics-ln'spatcli. Segregation llet. That segregation or uie sexes in edu cational . work is best is the opinion expressed by President Hamilton, of Tufts College. Tufts has abandoned the plan of trying to teach young men and young women in the same classes md has opened a special college for women.. The results have been most gratifying. The regHiration has been icreased. the -.students', both of Tufts, ollege and or Jackson College, as the new institution is known, have done letter work and President Hamilton las assured himself that both the boys unl the girls like the nuw arrangement tter than .the old. W do not doubt it. Coeducation was a fad destined from the 'first to be. short lived., V'n fortunately. it lias done a good deal f bin-in during' the- time, it was in vogue, but it is passing and passing apidly. It ought never to have been ittempted. It is wlioilj unwise to un dertake to train young thou and young women together. Bad results are sure follow.. Moreover. the:. .educational leeds of the sexes diverge materially. The mission of the schools is to pre- are those who attend them for the lutics of life. That fact ought, to be borne always in- mind. Hoys get too much of tlieif schooling from women ind .young ladies gel too much of heirs from men. Indeed, we! are--very much 'inclined to agree with the opin- in. expressed by a noted educator re Vhtly that only 'married women should be employed tn teach" in col- eges for women. News and Courier.

Nov. 14 The defense in the mysterious poisoning case of John O. Schenck, the mil lionaire, whose wife, Mrs. Laura F. Schenck, is held without bail, made its firsUdecisive move today when a Pittsburg detective agency was re tained. The move is a mysterious one and the police are unable to ex plain it. While Mr. Schenck was somewhat Improved in the North Wheeling Hos pital, attorneys held conferences with a view to having Mrs. Schenck lib erated on bail. Although the woman was a domestic when she was mar ried to the rich packer years ago, she is said to have made a fortune upon her husband's business tips and will spend every cent of it to clear her name. The si range case holds all the mys tifying elements of the poison plots of the dark ages. Although Prose cuting Attorney J. B. Handlan has announced that he will be able to prove his case against Mrs. Schenck, he has been baffled at every turn in securing his evTijence. . The palatial Schenck home has been placed under guard of policemen tnd no one is allowed to enter with out a permit from Chief of Police Hastings. It has not yet been searched but it is tne intention ot rrosecutor name an to have the premises "combed" or evidence. It was reported today that the dashing young man with whom Mrs. Schenck was said to be infatuated had been given quantities of stock by U'hen he wns first mentioned In he ease he was called a' $20 a week lerk. Now it' developes that he is wealthv through the gifts of Mrs. Schenck, Prosecutor Handlan announced hat he is ready to go ahead with his ase despite the absence of Dr. Gre; ory Atkinson, one of the physicians who examined Mr. Schenck. Dr. At kinson is in Chicago and is not ex pected here for a week. There is but one more arrest to he made," declared the prosecutor. Rumor had it that this man had fled to Pittsburg. He is said to be an amateur chemist who coached the poisoner of Mr. Schenck as to how much arsenic would cause slow death and baffle doctors as to its cause. Mrs. Schenck's attorneys, O'Brien and O'Brien, held a conference with he.- in her cosv nuarters in .1ail. Tile ttorneys for the defense are said to he in the dark as to the course which he prosecution will pursue. Mrs. Schenck keeps aloof from the other women prisoners. She spends her time reading the newspapers and novels. She is closely guarded to prevent .suicide, although she has be- onie much calmer now than when she was first arrested and apparently iews her predicament in a philosoph- al light. It is said that if the case ever comes to trial her defense will be in anity; BRILLIANT HORSE SHOW. cw York Horse Show a Brilliant Af fair Society Out in Numbers. New York, Nov. 14 The brilliant uniforms of five different armies lent martial appearance to the national orse show in Madison Square Gar den today, military day, with society out. in greater numbers than at the opening Saturday. tA times the show looked as if it had been lifted "from the "pages of medieval history, the uniforms of American, English, Canadian, Dutch and French '.cavalrymen, mingling in the modern version of international jousting. Lieutenant Clifford Tipton, of the Colonial cavalry of Canada, and Cap tain Douglass Young, )f the Royal Canadian Dragoons, were two inter ested army men from the dominion. Lieutenant Tipton said that horse shows went far in improving the quality of army horses. Major General Leonard Wood, ranking officer of the United States' army, with Major General Gaiiington, und Major Henry T. Allen, . of the general staff, came to New York for the military part of the show. Four of the six men representing the English military team are Irish. The English team consists of Colonel P .A.

(By Leased Wire to The Times) i Washington, Nov. 1-1- The urgent need for the creation of mi army re serve by congress, a force of trained soldiers who would be under the di- ect control of the federal government is accentuated in the annual report made public today of Colonel K. M. Weaver, chief of the division of mili tia affairs of the' war department. With ".such a reserve corps, he states, the first line of defense In event of war would' be -200,000 militiamen, the 100,000 .regulars and at least infl,f,i;0 reserve corps men. f He devotes considerable attention to the' alleged' .hostility -of union labor to the organized militia, saying: "One of-the 'most regrettable condi tions in the country in relation to militia affairs is the attitude of labor unions toward the militia. It is well understood that these unions are, to say the least, unsympathetlcally dis posed toward the organized militia. In many cases the sentiment extends to the limit of actual hostility, and de barment of members of the organized militia . from -.membership in unions." No relief from these conditions, he adds, can be hoped for through state or national legislation or "the preach ing of patriotism." "Only one real practical solution has appeared at any point which promises ratisfiV'toiily to relieve the situation," be 'continues. This Is that evidenced In the., state constabulary of Pennsyl vania.
