' Million follow th struggle of the bis league teams for the pennant and when millions look on the men who direct the maneuvers of the performers must necessarily be men of exceptional ability. ." It doesn't look as- if a man could. earn forty thousand a year managing a ball team, but baseball baa become big business, and big busi new deals in big amounts. COHESIVE POWER OF PATRON- AGE. Frank A. Munsey, the New York newpsapcr ti.agnate and Progressive parry leader, is trying to bring about the re union of the Progressive and Republican parties Every one whu gave the matter any thought musl have looked for something like this. The contemplation of so m&ny Demo crats enjoying themselves around the jrie counter is having a marked effect upon our Republican friends. They are giving every evidence that they regard the times as very decidedly out ol joint. They have enjoyed tin- luxury of an exclusive pie diet so long that they lave come to regard any body else 'who shows a fondness for the political delicacy mentioned as a bold, bad mat who for the good of society deserves to be held continually ia subjection. It would be fine for the Democracy if the Republicans would st.iy divided, bilt uch is the cohesive power of patronage that no such consummation cad be looked for, more's the pity. THE LEGISLATURE. The General Assembly has organized and the usual biennial legislative grind has commenced. George V. Connor, of Wi!ton, the Demociatic caucus -nominee, was made speaker of the House and it is believed that he will hi) the place worthily. H. N Pharr of Mecklenburg was elected president pro tern, of the Senate. Lieutenant Governor Damghti idge not having been sworn in yet, he is not yet qualified to preside over the de liberations of the Senate. Committee assignment were announced Wed nesday by l.ient. Governor Newlajid Senator Ward of New Bern was made chairman of the committee on judicia d'xtnets ana Senator Leslie Davis, the other Senator from this district, wa given the chairmanship of the committee on rules. "Both Senators are also irembers of numerous other committees. The problem of increasing the State's revenues or ' decreeing k expense: Until income and outgo are more evenly balance! than they are at pie acnt is the most serious matter before the law-makers STRENUOUS. It is not to belinagined for a moment that Theodore Roosevelt has a mono- Idy '"on the strenuousnes of this Country.

When a law maker faces a proposi tion like that, if he hasVt got an ex. traordinary lot of confidence in himself, he is apt to quail. But we believe that if the matter of taxation were adequately administered in the State, the funds necessary to bring North Carolina to the front educa tionally would be forthcoming. Let's all be bankers. See where the First National of New York paid dividends of over two hundred per cent, in four years. "Sixty drinks for a cent" forms the subject of a news item in the Balti more Sun. Of course it is drinks of water the best drink. That tariff "sum" is a hard one, but then, men drawing pay at the rate of seventy-five hundred dollars a year ought to be able to work it out so that the greatest good will result to the greatest number. Somebody's going to get "hurt no matter what changes are made in the tariff. If no changes are made those who will get hurt will be those who have been getting the small end of the proposition all along.

In his message to the General As sembly Governor Kitchin uges that the garment .be cut according to the cloth. '' This is safe advice whether in public or private affair. Powerful pressure is brought to bear on the law makers to get them to make appro priation for this or that object with out seeing clearly where the money is to come "from. So, after all, cutting the garment according to the , cloth is merely a matter of having the courage to say "no", ' v . CITIES AND CORPORATIONS.
