Our culinary expert Greece is in a stew. reports that Wear a playground- tag tomorrow. It will be a badge of honor. Evidently the President doesn't be lieve in striking while the temper is hot. No, Sweet Clover, when a queen blushes that is not what is meant by a royal flush. The Teutons are trying to get King Constantine to live up to the first two syllables of his name. Instead of being shorter dresses are to simply be tighter, it is report ed. Oh, you fat girls! It could also be added : "Oh, pov erty, oh, poverty, how many crimes are committed in thy name." Roosevelt was greeted by giant crowds in Maine. Wouldn't the cir cus parade do the same thing? New York is to be filled with elec tric signs against Wilson. This will hardly throw any light on the sub ject. Robert A. Cooper has come out for Manning for Governor of South Car olina. May not this be called a Cooper's Union? But if an embargo on tobacco will allow the candidates to hand . out a humane brand of campaign cigars, let the blamed thing come. Our trade relations with - Great Britain are fast getting of the mother-in-law brand, with the latter not on this side of the Atlantic either. , The one exception to ships being feminine is the submalrine. If of such gender it could . not possibly keep its presence from being known. Now the fox-trot is to be eliminat ed First thing you know people who can't dance won't be able to get on the floor and prance around at all, at all. We beg not to be numbered among those who are saying they have been "sorely disappointed in Mr. Hughes." For our part we have been gloriously surprised. Unfortunately for Mr. Hughes, while there are laws aimed to" keep a person from committing suicide they do not .'cover .political, self-destruction. The question is whether the Ruma nians have pushed the Austrians to their second line of defense or the Ru manians have retreated to their sec-; ond line of lying? While it probably Is true that "you can't keep a good man down," it be gins to look to South Carolina as if It may be so that you can't keep a bad man down. Behold the Cole Blease vote. we are jusx m receipt or a pampn let of eighty-four pages .entitled "Rec ord of Charles E. Hughes." The first '. inaccuracy we note is that the pages .contain printed matter instead of being blank. ;It may notv stifle his ambition, but it will do no harm to call the attention- of Colonel Roosevelt to the fact that the case of the ruler of Greece sbowathat It Is not always pleasant to b&,KUigf 'an unwilling people. ' Th'y ;hayeCdeclded at last that it wasn't', a . British- cruiser that entered lower 'Chesapeake Bay a few weeks - ago, ; 4atit was an - American armFt transport', Whyjiot say it was 'airowboal arid 'let' the "matter drop? New Bern Sun-Journal. ' -Why not make it a submarine and it' could drop itself. . ROOSEVELT IN MAINE. Careful perusal of the much herald ed Maine speech of Theodore Roose velt, in behalf of Ihe Republican nominee-1 he- but a few months ago he hailed as unfit to be President, shows that it was devoted entirely to an attack upon the International policy, of' President Wilson. Silent as the tomb about the , many achieve ments of the Wilson administration that meant protection for the homes of the people, that saved business from being smashed - to smithereens, that meant , better working conditions and that has developed the farming interests of the country. His wail pwas simply upon the International policy of the Democratic administra tion. About one-fourth of his speech was devoted to the European war and the other three-fourths to Mexico. .Nothing else. As to Mexico he says that the policy has been a failure; there should have been war. He does not declare for war in posi tive terms, but the only logical infer ence from his declaration is that there should have been war. That is the wail of his argument on the Mexican policy. It is not one that will frighten the Wilson admin istration. The Democrats are per fectly willing for the American peo ple to judge their administration simply by their Mexican policy. There is hardly any doubt but what the hearts of the millions and mil lions of voters beat warmly for Wil son because he has kept the country out of war with Mexico. Fathers and mothers everywhere In this land must appreciate that today, thanks to Wil son, they have their sons, instead of new-made mounds to weep over. If the Mexican issue was the only one .it would be superfluous to hold the election in November. Mr. Roosevelt's tirade against the President on his European policy was equally as foolish, as Mr. Roosevelt does not believe in being neutral. He openly proclaimed months ago, and reiterated it last night, that the United States should have intervened in Belgium. We wonder what the German-American voters of Maine, that have been showing their teeth to Mr. Wilson think of this. It's true that Mr. Roosevelt is not the Repub lican candidate, but it is equally true that Mr. Roosevelt is close to the candidate. It is also true that Mr. Roosevelt did not appear in Maine last night voluntarily, but at invi tation, solicitation of the Republican National executive committee. It is a well-known fact that Mr. Roose velt has been drafted by Mr. Hughes to speak in his behalf. Therefore Mr. Roosevelt does represent Mr. Hughes, arid by' reason' of his service, aside from his position, he is bound to ex ert influence upon him. In view of this, what do these German-Ameri cans, who are criticising Mr. Wilson, when Captain Koenig has praised him, think of this wild declaration made by Mr. Roosevelt last night, made in a speech in advocacy of the election of Charles Evans Hughes, in advocacy, too, at the behest of tharles Evans Hughes: "Any organization of American citizens which acjts in the interest of a foreign power is guilty of moral treason to the republic. It is because of such action that I condemn those professional German-Americans who in our politics act as servants and al lies of Germany, not as Americans in terested solely in the honor and weH fare of America;- and I would con demn just as quickly English-Americans or French-Americans or Irish Americans who acted in such man ner." It is well to note, for a clear view of Mr. Roosevelt's charges, that he condemns the German-Americans for something he alleges they" have done, and says he would condemn English Americans and French-Americans. One, he claims, has committed a crime, but the other has not. MAN AND NOT SECTION. There is nothing pleasing in the mob demonstration, lawless action, cowardly behavior of the great gang of "good citizens" of, or at least that held forth in Lima, Ohio unless it is to prove to the satisfaction of the Chicago Tribune and a few wild-eyed New Englanders that lynch law is 'not circumscribed; that it is not limited by atmospherical conditions, T nor bounded 'by sectional lines, but 'de pends for its being upon the temper, the rapid impulse of men wherever those men be. The Ohio mob seems to have pre sented tbe spectacle of outGeorgiaing the Georgia mob, that stormed State's prison, and outTexaning the Texas mob, that burned , its victims at the stake. This because the Ohio horde did not content itself with desiring to "mete out justice" to the criminal, but actually attempted to murder the law, by hanging, the sheriff, .and laidl rough hands on an innocent woman, to force her to open the door of the! prison, ceil. . witn equat iury n nem ears oia today. the police forcl at its mercy. T .1 The Ohio mob seems to have broken I Bishop John W.

P., Chairman of those who 'participated in the outrage. Not being section-bound we trust that the Ohio authorities will ferret out the perpetrators and send ' them .to prison. N ', A TEST, NOT WANTED. We cannot believe the statement attributed to both sides in the rail road controversy that they want a .strike as a fest. We cannot believe that they desire to lose millions of dollars' in even a few days' stoppage of traffic and willingly become par ties to the disruption of business conditions and, perhaps, personal suf fering coincident with it all. But whether they want it or not, whether one side or the other desires it; the people do not want it, and those who make up the Tailroad classes, both employers and em ployes, are but pigmies in numerical size compared with the rest of the people of this country. Therefore what the people want is to avert the strike; not to witness a test of the strength of either side. Such a test would do no ultimate good. It might appease the vanity of those who won and they and their supporters would ;hail it as a triumph and yet-the vic tory would be only temporary. Not only would the seed of malice be sown, but there would be no guar antee that another test would not be forthcoming at some future date. The only ones who could possibly welcome a knock-down-and-drag-out affair of this kind would be those who rabidly believe in government owner ship of railroads, as the exhibition would propel this further along the road to such goal than anything else. What's needed is to avert the strike , and Droper laws to lessen future dan ger; not allow the strike to come, with its loss to the millions of inno cent, and with nothing done by the government that will lessen the dan ger, but everything, by omission, that would increase it. ' Unlike most industrial squabbles, railroad systems are of interstate commerce character, and, therefore, the government can act; will have to act. The railroads know this, which naturally would strengthen their at titude, though not necessarily their cause. Both sides to the railroad contro versy have rights, but so have the millions and millions of other people : in this country. It is in behalf of the latter that the President of the 1 United States is now acting; trying1 to forestall the calamity, and it be-j hooves people to help rather than j hinder him. The people the innocent bystand ers should urge upgm Congress the I necessity of supporting the President i in this great crisis. We believe Con gress, upon whose shoulders now rests the responsibility, will respond. Tomorrow the Royal Club, an or ganization composed of young men ,'who love clean sport, will -endeavor to raise funds for additional equip ment for the Robert Strange Play grounds. Its method will be by tags. A Tag Day will be presented and it will mean only a donation of a few cents by each person, but in the ag gregate it will mean much; some- thing big for advancement of the j playground movement In Wilmington, j Be certain to wear a tag tomorrow.
