At a dinner in Greensboro given by the, Chamber of Commerce last Friday night, among the speakers were Chief Justice Waller Clark and Gov. Locke Craig. The former - spoke first, making the statement that lobbyist swarmed at Raleigh during the special session of the Legislature, and that the people of the Slate had ben robbed of 110,- 000,000 a year by excessive freight rates. When the Governor's time came to speak be took issue with the Judge, saying lobbyists were notice ably absent and that the excessive rates had robbed the people of only •4,000,000 a year. A day or two * after the incident in Greensboro Judge Clark came out in a statement to fortify himself and made the lob byiat charge ring louder and stronger than before —almost to the point of calling names. At that it stands, The situation in Mexico is an in tereating question at thia time, but what the situation really is is not so easily stated. Theso are some facts, as gathered from the press dis patches : Uuerta has not resigned and it don't look much like ne is going to; his Congress is called to meet; some fighting has been done; thia government has been parle ing with Carranza, the rebel chief, who wants to be recognized, but has not been; and foreigners are fleeing the country. It does not appear what will be the next move. V mm The appointment of Dr. W. L. Poteat of Wake Forest, Mr. A. A. Thompson of Raleigh and Judge M. H. Justice of Rutnerfordton as the special intra-state rate commission, provided for by an act of the special session of tbe Legislsture, has been announced by Gov. Craig. The first meeting will be held next Tuesday. Governor Locke Criig has issued hi* proclamation, setting apart Thursday. November 27th, as a day of public Thanksgiving. All over North Carolina a kind Prov idence has smiled with a bounti ful hand during the past year, and the more Is the reason that the people of this Common wealth should be devoutly thank ful to the Great Olver of so many blessings and comforts. Former Congressman William T. Crawford, died at his home in Waynesville, Sunday night, aged 57 years. He rose from the humble walks of life, clerked in n store and read law at night. By dint of hard work he rose to promi nence, and for nine times the Dem ocrats gave him the nomination for Congress. He was one of the State's best and truckt citizens, his widow, four sons and three daughters sutvlve.

Webster, one of the county's beet citlsens, died Tues-I day of pneumonls at his home in' the Hawflelds community, aged 71 year*. Mr. Webster had been a citizen of this countv about Si year*, coming here from South Carolina He i* survived by his MUSIC AND NERTES. Specialist HwaU "the Perpetual Plague of Modem life." Prof. Oppenheim, a great Ger man nerve specialist, find* that music has become the plague of modern life. In his practice has been struck by the fact that the largest percentage of sufferers come from the hotels where there is .what he what he calls a "perpetual plague of music". He adds that the common method of going to a seaside or mountain resort for rest andstopping at one of the large hotels where the music plague rages as badly as in the cities, makes real rest for the worn out nerves impossible. "Against the evil there cannot be too energetic protest and ac tion. lam not unmusical; I have had many enjoyable hours with music, and I have even written upon the healing' value of music, but there is no longer a question of enjoyment and benefit, but of disorderly ' disturbance which should be checked. "A benefit that is forced upon us becomes an agony and a burden wreck nerves, and that is what re sults from hotel music, which you must hear whether you want to or not. "Enjoyment and the beneficial effects of music are dependent up on the conditions under which it is heard. There must be a free choice of where and when and what kind of music one wants in order that it be soothing instead of Irritating. Hotel music should be played In a special room with thick walls. If our hotels take the advice of Prof. Oppenheim they will have music only in special dining rooms, notifying their gusts as to which are the silent and which are the "musical" dining rooms, then we shall be able to eat in peace if we wish to or all the noise we desire. Indian Matrimony, Old and New. The matrimonial advertisements accepted by the Indian papers oc casionally bring out the contrast between the old order of things and the new. Here, for example, is an invitation from'a paper in the Punjaub illustrating the old: "Wanted, a suitable match for a Sareen boy of 13, of a highly re spectable family. The girl must be between seven and eight years of age, and should be well connect ed." By the side of this may be an fxample of the other kind, an advertisement inserted by one Ram Singh Hay, of Dharamsala: "My good friend, am educated, young, possessing robust health, wealth and independent liveli hood, aged 32, bachelor, wants to marry a girl decorated with edu cation, civilisation and sound health; ,no distinction between Hindu castes."

A meeting of the County Board of Commissioners, Board of Health, and Board of Education was recent ly held in Nashville to discuss the advisability of employing a com petent physician to devote his en tire time to the-pr4£f ntlon of sick ness. It was overwhelmingly de cided by the Boards that this be done* so provision was made for the employment of such an officer.

I know of no more important atep for any atate to take than thia. I think it time that the great man of people living in the rural dis tricts be induced to provide ade quate local arrangements. Certain ly nothing is more important than that they should .have a thor oughly competent man giving his entire time to the care of the pub lic health. I think that such an arrangement will be an invest ment. It will pay in dollars and cents, and immeasurably In phys ical comfort and peace of mind. I think every county in the Union should have a full time, well paid, competent health officer, with ad equate authority, financial support and assistance. Sincerely yours, D. P.

Petrolenss, Being Used for Fuel ang Una Making la California. I Petroleum has been secured in such large quantities in California that is rapidly displacing coal as fuel. As a result coal mining has practically ceased in that state, the production in the last two years being only 10,717 tons in 1911 and 10,978 tons in 1912. The production of petroleum in in California in 1912, according to to the Geological Survey, was 86,- 450,767 barrels, of which not less than 50,000,000 barrels were used directly for fuel. Large quanti of oil are also used in the place ot for gas making and on the esti mate that three and one-half bar reals of petroleum is equivalent to one ton of bituminous coal, it is probable that from 1,400,000 to 1,- 600,000 tone of coal would be re quired in California to perform the service now rendeed by pe troleum in the production of heat, light and power. California oil Is the principal fuel for locomotives as far'north as Washington and across the Sierra and the Cascade range. It is used almost exclusively on inland and coastwise steamers, and to an in creasing extent by the trans-Pa cific steamers. It has even displaced coal on Pu get Sound, many of the steamers plying between Vancouver, Vic toria and otber points having been equipped for oil burning. Nearly Every Child Has Worms.

The conclusion reached is that achoois and colleges are "built to burn", not designedly, as a matter of course, but so they will burn and continue to burn' "at the present rate as they are at present rate as they are at present constructed and cared tor. How about our school buildings in North Carolina. Per Capita Fire Loss. The per capita fire loss in the United States during 1912 was $2.55, which is many times higher than it was in the principal European countries. The per capita loss in England was 54 cents, in Prance 81 cents, and in Oermany 20 cents. So our loss was more than ten times as great per capita as in Germany and about five times as great as in England. These fig ures suggest at a glance the reas on our fire insurance premiums are higher than Europe's. Premiums are based upon losses and they are not likely to be much lower until we have fewer fires and lets de structive ones. The chief reasons for the lower fire losses in Europe are the more durable construction of their building and their greater carefulness. Having less wealth they can less afford loss by fire. They take better care of what they have than we do, Travelers abroad have often commented on the slowness ynd lack of modera equipment ot" the fire departments of Europe, so it is not true that their fire losses are smaller because they know more about fighting fires than we do. They have less need than have we of very capable fir depart ments. CASTOR IA Vtor Infants and Gkildrat.
