Mr. Britc has been in his new position but a few weeks and it was hardly to be believed that be would make much of a report this time that the report in facWwonld deal more largely with the work of his prodecessor. But this ia not the case. It is suggested that some excellent suggestion for running the postal ervice will be announced in this report but aa it will not be made public for several days yet nothing de finite can be staid concerning it. Ufa a noticeable thing in Washiag- ton that white the senators and repre sentatives are making vain efforts to land their constituents at the fat end of of the pie counter, North Carolina haa at least one man there with others in sight, maybe, as soon As Britt and Hitchcock talked the situation over just a little bit more. Hitchcock is tho nusn here who really telle President Taft what to do and who. to appoint. This is not entirely confined to the poatoffice department, but applies as well to wine or tha other departments alsa But as to hia department proper, well unlew it meets the approval of the Postmaster General no appointment will go. Britt and Hitchcock are sche duled to pull off some appointments in North Carolina before the year 1911 haa grown very old that may show the real effect of the tatter's- selection to bis present p isition.

The President's close friends know that he intends tn run. Not only that, but steps are be ing taken to clear the way for Taft's renomination. Tho rouifh places! are being smoothed over where this is pos-! sible and friendships are being sought rather than enmities. ; 4 .Not alone the renomination is being kept la mind, but also the re-election of the president As a matter fact, the men closest to the president are worried-more over the election than they are over the nomination. They feel confident the president can get the necessary majority of delegates in the next Republican National Convention to insure his nomination.
