The only cold weather that Charleston
has had during the winter last- ,
cd just long enough to help the
plumber, without greatly helping
the coal man.?News & Courier.
"The wisest part" of Mr. Taft's
It
inaugural address, in the opinion of
the Indianapolis News, "is that dealing
with the race question. Mr.
Taft does not propose to turn his
back on "the negroes, but neither se
does he prefer to intensify and keep
alive race prejudice by appointing
negroes to office in the South. All ?'
that he says in this connection is ^
well said. We do not see how either
the white or black people of the
South,can quarrel with the Pres- "
ident on this subject." There will
be no "quarrel" with him by the
white people of the South, we feel y
sure, if he shall only stick to his "
good resolutions, and we have no
doubt in the world that he will. 1(
There is to be nothing spectacular ^
in Mr. Taft's administration, as we $
understand, but it is to be wholly j

general uneasiness of the manufac- t

ral Free Delivery, Farmer's Unions,
Good Roads and other educational u
agencies are bringing the farmers
more closely in touch with the bus- <
iness world and he is just now be- "(
ginning to realize what a strategic *- !
and important position he occupies ^
in the world of trade. Heretofore H
but few farmers were familiar with '
the original cost of the various fer- F
tilizing materials but now they are
more enlightened. w
It pays to keep on the good side ?
of the man whose brain and muscle
are the financial prop of our J,'
country. p
The policy ot President Tatt n
Kl
refusing to appoint negroes to fed- w
eral offices removes one of the strong- '/
if
4 est obstacles to the development of
Republicanism in the south. Tis
true that there is enough of genuine ,-l
democracy in the country to control
the situation, but the negro is pS
the basis of prejudice against Republicanism
in a large number of )K
rases and the Dolicv of the r>rec_ ' 1
ident is bound to have its effect up- w
on such men. President Taft will n'
<>\
have to do something terrible to or

We think that the President is dow
ing right, but there are much greater ti
things that he could do for hiscoun- al
