Germany's explanation regarding her reasons for attacking and demolishing the San Carlos fort In Venezuela, that the Venezuelans made the first face and threw the first stone, which of coarse had to be punished, does not explain why Germany should place her war ves sels In a position to assure a fight. Of course fromGermany's sld,the fact that the United States Is surprised and Indignant over the attack when peace negotiations were Inlprogress, is rldicu lous. But this act, of knocking down an old fortress, bombarding a helpless town, killing Innocent women and children, Is so much In Germany's talk and declara tions of Indlfforcnce, that It can deceive no thinking American. It is strictly an attempt to bluff, to prove the German contention that the Monroe doctrine Is simply an American "pieces of colossal Impudence," which can be easily thrust aside by Germany. Blinded by over weening personal van ty, and filled with conceit of being a world conqueror, the 1 German emperor cannot believe In anything but certain success for anything he may undertake, nor be gainsaid in any personal ambi tion which seeks an object. To the blind emperor, a war with America Is nothing of Importance, nor risk to Germany, It Is the arrogant American who needs showing a few thing a la William, the all-wise. Well, if Germany Insists in testing the staying qualities of the Monroe doc trine, It is Just as well to begin right now. But let the emperor give up his "di plomatic explanations," and come over and remove that "piece of colossal Im pudence," which Germany declares Use Monroe doctrine to be, and play to a finish his natural role of Bombastei Furloso but with some real action In the character, instead of farther bluff. The American side will be found fully represented In the game, sufflcently at least Ito prove . the genuineness of the "impudence." FOUR YEARS ARE ENOUGH OF ROOSEVELT. Secretary Hay In a recent speech paid tribute to his chief, when he alluded to tlx more years of the present adminis tration, Intimating a second term. This was of course complimentary to President Roosevelt, and no doubt was sincerely expressed, but to the country, generally, four years will be enough of the Roosevelt administration. It wai with great hesitancy that the country accepted Mr Roosevelt as Its President, upon the death ot Mr. McKin ley, and there It nothing In President Roosevelt's career to date, to lessen thlt hesitation, or cause the people to expect from him, anything except the unex pected There lino criticism upon the Indi vidual conduct or character of the Pres ident. Hit Americanism Is all right. HI itrenuousness It well enough In Its proper place, but Mr. Roosevelt It too apt to apply the tame brand of energy In public affair, as he would In a bear hunt, and use the quick trigger In both cases, when the public matter demanded at least twenty-four hours considera tion. ; ' , ' : ' It It thlt over anxiety to finish every. thing quickly, at the moment, which hat led, and will continue to lead Mr. Room Telt Into hasty judgment!. .Today's de cision in the light of tomorrow.demandt , abrogating,' and there was nothing In the case demanding the declslon'tc day. It It this ttrenuoslty which cautet the President to Ignore the tradition! of hit high efflclal position, and to attempt to force his" personal ideas into" affairs which cannot but be offensive to others, r-.i all without reason for as In the of Tthe Sooth where hat been a needles and heedless rushing In the matter of the negro, attempting to force conditions, which no power, were It ten thousands time greater than the Presi dent's could do. It Is this Irresponsible character of the President, which U dytroylng 11 hit chances for future preferment at tie hands of the people. The President's cfticc Is out' demand ing not haste, bnt expediency, calmness and wise consideration of thccoanlry and Its various peoples and thtlr tradi tions. President Roosevelt Is unable to grafp the fact that his own Individuality 1 not the only application to he employe 1 in very many matters of public Interest and welfare. That this State can best solve certain conditions, or that sect! n knows best what Its social usiisges :c. and their regulation. It is the failure to reals: that tli.

It Is a great work, that Centenary Church proposes to undertake, but the reward makes tho endeavor well worth the effort. And no more propltous opportunity could be given for this movement, thai, offers today. Everything favors its com plete success.

To this no cards are seat Represettatlve Stubbsof Martin has again Introduced a bill to amend the constitution by dividing the school taxes so that those paid by whites will go to whites and those paid by negroes will go to that race. Such bills have been in troduced at a number of sessions, sev eral by Mr Stubbs who made a big fight for the measure at the session of 1901 but It was defeated by an overwhelming majority. Interest In the Senatorial contest has abated to a great degree. This hat grown plainer day by day. In addition to the large private cost to the various candidates and their friends this contest has since the 20th cost the State no In considerable sum, as from half to three quarters of an hour has been consumed dally In the futile Joint balloting. A large delegation from Tarboro Is here to go before the Propositions and Orlevances Committee on the vexed question there of Dispensary or no Dis pensary. Among those here are C M T Fountain, C B Keech, Geo Howerd. Jr., E W Camble, A M Vandergrlft, C P Clayton, and A M Falrley. There was a hearing today before committee on renal Institution of the bill to establish a reformatory for youthful criminals. There were two bills along this line, ono by Senator Nor- rls of Wake, the other by Representa tive Parker of Wayne. It Is the latter bill which is backedby the King's Daugh ters, who have Inaugurated the move ment for such a reformatory and made It their Slate work. The committee of the King's Daughters, headed by Mrs. W. 11. S, Curgwyn of Weldon, Chair man, was before the committee. Today W. E. Griffith, the new Bena- or from tho 36th district, composed of Mitchell, Madison and Yancey, reached ere. lie ib a Democrat and was very adroitly elected In that cast Iron Repub lican district by means of a shrewd plan carried out by the Democrats who did not let It be known that they had a can didate. The result was few Republicans went to the polls. The Democrats did not vote In the morning but voted solid ly after four o'clock. Griffith succeeds Zeb Wilson, Republican, a very desper ate man who during the holidays was slain by his brother near his home In Yancey county In a drunken brawl Of course this new arrival In the Senate will be a factor for voting for a United States Senator.
