Seventy two Hundred People Treated Fo." iloiLworm Disease io Twenty Days m i:our Couniies. In the counties of Sampson. Robeson, Columbus, and Halifax 7260 victims of hookworm dis ease have been treated at the State and County dispensaries. Nearly double this number have been examined. During the first five days the dispensaries were open only 615 cases 'were treated whereas during the last five days 2808 were neated. During the twenty days there ; were treated in Sampson cases: in1 Robe son 1352; in Columbus 3047; and in Halifax in 1 2 days 1169 cases. The County Boards of Educa tion, to show their spirit of co operation, are having sanitary privies installed at all the school houses being used as dispensa ries. After about two week the dis pensary work will move into new counties. Cumberland, Onslow, Wayne and Northampton Coun ties have made the necessary pro vision to have the dispensaries next. The Commissioners and people generally are highly pleased with the work of the dispensaries. White- House Information Conditions are Wary From Our Special Cor respondent. Washington, Aug. 14 Are the American people competent to rule? AndTf they are competent, have they the right under the constitution to do so? Here are two vital questions directly involved in a veto by President Taft of the Flood Re solution granting statehood to Arizona and New Mexico terri tories which have those many years been eligible to admission asjstates but have been barred terests in the territories desired it, and second because the Re publicans feared Arizona would send Democratic senators to Con gress. The impression that the White House press bureau (Secretary Hilles, manager) is trying to put out to the country is that the r veto was made necessary by a provision in the Arizona consti tution which established the re call. This view is erroneous. Th9 fact is, both branches of Con gress were sareful not to go on record either for or against the tecall. The resolution simply gives to the people of Arizona the right of local self government; the riht to vote on the question of recall and to themselves deter- mine whether Wey- desire the re call. r v So the president is not vetoing the recall of judges when he ve toes statehood. What he really is vetoing is the right of the people ol Arizona to decide for themselves the form of rerublican government under which they wish to live. "You folks in Arizona are not try to maintain the high American wrge is shown up as a farce, pure and Simple by, the presence in several American manufacturing communities of agents of Canadian manufacturers who are gathering figures to show that Canada can .not afford to have reciprocity with tls for the reason that Canada can not compete against American wages. The Canadians are beginning to understand how it is that the steel trust can sell steel in Canada for about half the prices charged the American consumer and still make a profit. They ' are learning that men in the steel mills twelve hours a day and seven davs week a for a dollar and a half )a day and it is the reason that they do not wish to compete against tfce heap for eign immigrant and negro labor employed by American trusts that some of the Canadians are urging th e defeat of reciprocity. And yet the Republican pro-. tectionists have argued all these! years that the great danger to i American labor, was the, possibili ty that it might have to enter into competition with the "cheao" la bor of other countries, This latest acnon of the Canadians knocks the last legs from under that an cient contention. NATIONAL ROAD BUILDLNG TO BE . DEMOCRATIC POLICY. Speaker Champ Clark has sound ed a high note that promises ta hhrowaniee isscre into the next- campaign. He. is-' a menber of the Lincoln memorial commission, and in that capacity he is advocat ing the building of a great highway from the national capitol to Get tysburg "as the nucleus of a great system of national roads, built by the government in co-operation with the states."

A WHITE HOUSE INFLUENCE In the haze of scandal th-at hangs over the Taft administration the form of Charles P. Taft, capitalist, busy multiplying his dollars, is plainly discernable. As the cur tain is lifted on each succeeding scene of scandal the president is in evidence, and around him, shap ing his course, are men who are the acknowledged agents of those Forces mature trying to shape hu manity to the dollar. When he was elected he inspir ed in many who., are known as progressive republicans" the be lief that he had made his choice between public and private inter ests. Perhaps he had. But al ways before him he must quite naturally see hjs' brother and his brother's wealth. From'his nativ- i ity, wealth, and its "emblems have been the be-all and and-all son of plutocracy. 'Yet he means well. He has a good heart. His great handicap is that he has so -many about him who. know exactly what they want, and to whom the publie good is the last considera tion.
