Former Pre true from lost eizhty pounds in weight he ceased to be president anti-fat tie SR AR The last issue of the Floridian in- dicates that Albert Williamson is very much in earnest about running for Congress. A joint debate be- tween Albert and Claude is not like- ly to occur, but if it should it would be the warmest thing Florida poli- tics has known for many years. 7 TN, President Wilson has been singu- larly fortunate in his appointments to high official station, and in case has his sound judgment been better illustrated than in the ap- pointment ®f John Skelton Williz ms, of Virzinia, to the very important pogition of comptroller of the cur rency.

There is no money in politics except to the professionals ana 1t 18 nearly always a nasty game played ".: with cards up the sleeve.” We felt sure that when Editor Walton of the Orlando Reporter-Star had read the facts set forth in the reply of Mr. Cathcart to the abusive language of National Committeeman Crawford against Senator Fletcher that he would get on the right track in the matter and do justice to the senator. lHe has read Mr. Cath- catt’s letter,' has been stronzly and favorably impressed with it and says in the Reporter-Star: ““We do not believe that Mr. Craw- ford’s screed will hurt Senator Fletcher. The animus is too appar- ent. He stands high in Congress and has been able to accomplish much for his State. That President Wilson does not entertain the same opinion of Senator Fletcher that Mr. Crawford does is shown by his con- fidence displayed in his appointment to a number of responsible commis- slons. The preeident Is a pretty good Judge of men and his endorsement means a great deal.” e P NS The St. Petersburg Times is not convinced by our paragraph that one good reason for arresting negroes for shooting crapg is that such shooting {8 gambling and gambling is a vio- lation of law. The Times says: “We are not convinced that this is a ‘zood’ reason. Law enforcement 8 presumed to be for the protection or betterment of gociety; is either ob- Ject the slizhtest degree approached by arresting nezroes for the very mild amuvsement of shooting crans?” The only way we can think of to meet the objection the Times would be to attach a proviso to the statute acainst gambling which would read like this: “Provided, however, that nothinz in this law shall be held to anply to ne groes encazed in shooting erans, and gald cran-shootine hy memhers of the of something negro race i8 herchy declared to bhe Jecal and permissible and ontside the meaning and operation of the lnws against zambling in this State.” That mizht cover the point made by [ the Times but as it would be a clear case of class lerislation we doubt if the courts would sustain it.

B LABOR NEWS AND NOTES The Crown Prince of Germany has joined the Cabinet Makers' union. The Pacific coast States are ar- ranging to solve the prollem of the unemployed by providi~3 employ- ment for those who want it. Several States will consider legis- lation covering convict road work this winter. The national commit- tee on labor reform has received re- quests from Maine and Vermont for assistance in preparing convict labor measures. Ohio’s new compulsory compensa- tion law provides a system of claim investization that defies fraud. It gives both workmen and employer a square deal at a negligible cost to each and clears away masses of cost- ly court legislation. During the last quarter of the old year the greater number of fatalities that occurred to working men in Canada was in the line of navigation. This was the result of the severe storms on the Great lakes. Steam railway service comes next. The metal trade shows the highest num- ber of injured, with steam railwavs as a close second. Other trades showing a large number of killed and injured are mining and buildingh The immigration Mepartment of the Dominion of Canada is making strennous efforts to prevent an un- ‘duo influx of laboring classes both from Great Dritain and along the | American border, where it is report- ‘ml industrial denression promotes a men :tu enter Canada in larze numbers. + With new reenlations holdine up all oriental immigration on the Pa- the tendency on the nart of worki 'eifie coast until next en on the Atlantic side the govern- ment appears to be making sure that "the condition of unemplovment and surplus of labor already existing in many parts of Canada will not be ;tunher aggravated. end of March and active measures beinz tak- 'RADO- STRIKERS MARCH TO MEET GOVERNOR Finder please re-, 14, 1914.
