NAVY SCORES A RECORD.
Now that the gunnery record has
been scored, the New York World
■ays:
"Something ought to be done at
once about Josephus Daniels, Sec
retary of the Navy.
In its new 14-inch guns
in Tangier Sound the battleship
Pennsylvania has scored five hits
out of twelve on a small target
at 20,000 yards, a feat that ord
nance experts say is a world's
record in gunnery. To make mat
ters worse, the auperdreadnaught
Arizona, sister ship to the Pennsyl
vania, haß Just been completed at
the Brooklyn Navy Yard, not only
on schedule time, but at a saving
one million dollars. This is heap
ing outrage upon outrage.
It is the business of the Pcnns.v I
vania when undergoing firing teds
to make a clean score of misses
at a target as big as the horizon.
It Is the business of the Brooklyn
Navy yard to boggle everything
and to serve as proof of Democratic
incapacity, inaptitude, incompe
tence and utter inefficiency.
Josephus Daniels is Secretary of
the Navy and VVoodroW Wilson is
President. Nothing can possibly be
right with the United States Navy
under the present Administration.
The Navy is a sixth-rate affair, ft
cannot shoot. It cannot navigate.
It can hardly keep afloat in still
water and calm weather, because
Josephus Daniels is at the head of
the Navy Department and Wood
row—Wilson is President.
Eminent'amateur experts and Re
publican campaign orators have
rights that must be respected.
They have staked their reputations
on the nav.V being unfit and utterly
worthless. It is a mutter of con
science with them, and Mr. Daniels
outht to be ashamed of himself.
The Gleaner in its issue of Nov.
7th, lIH2, said :
"Roosevelt proposes to keep up the
fight, for the Progressives and Tail
will hold on to the Republican party
and try to rehabilitate it. Hig jobs
both have on their handj. Hut,
mind you, the fragments will no
doubt be marching under the same
banner four years.hence."
Has the prophecy been fulfilled ?
Are not the two principals fighting
side by side for Hughes and against
Wilson ?
Mrs. Annie K. Howe, sister of
President Wilson, died at New Lon
don, Conn., Saturday. The remains
were taken to Columbia, S. C„ anil
buried beside the remains of her
husband Monday, The President
attended the funeral. A son of
Mrs. Howe is u professor a'.
Chapel Hill.
Wall Street made a slight bulge
over the result in Maine. It was
slight and a small compliment, but
enough to show the course of the
"interests."
Spraying and Pruning For Apples.
Last winter the County Demon
strator, Mr. E. C. Turner, went to
the farm of Capt. W. 11. Turrentine,
west of Burlington, showed him how
to prune and instructed him in
■praying. The Uapt. followed the
directions. A few davs ago he
brought us some appUs from thi
trees treated under the directions
They were fully twice as largo as
the fruit secuqpd under ordinary
conditions, a fact demonstrated in
Capt. Turrentines' orchard. It
would be useless to say that the
Capt. is an advocate of proper prun
ing and spraying. Others should al
low themselves to be convinced just
as the Capt. has. The apples wore
of the Magnum Bonum varity.
Fred Lineath, a Western Union
lineman, climbing a telegraph polo
at Concord, came in contact with
a live wire and received a shock
from which he died four hours

Vice President Marshall's Formal Ac
ceptance.
Thomas It. Marshall formally
accepted tho Democratic renonii
nation for ihe vice-presidency iu
Indianapolis Thursday night, not
for additional honor, lie said, "but
in the liope that I may ar-sist in
tiie re-election of Wood row Wil
son, who has not walked where
the path has led, but who lias
walked where there was no path
and who has left a trail."
In a speech of acceptance
phrased iu characteristic vein, the
Vice-President sketched briefly
the legislative achievements of
the administration, in which he
said he had been "an onlooker,'*
and eulogized the J'resident as
"tho man who brooded over the
republic in storm-tossed times and
by mere words spoke pence on the
troubled seas of international poli
tics." A changed administration,
he declared, would uot dare repe.il
a single one of the imporlaut
measures put on the statute books
sinoe March 4, 1013. Wanting an
issue, he continued, tho Republi
cans had turned to foreign affairs,
coining such phrases as "Firm
Americanism," which they could
uot define.
' The American people this year
have made their own issue," said
Mr. Marshall. "Those that the
parties present may be only side!
issues. The real issue of this
campaign is that thought which
goes with the father to his work
or busines, which engrosses every
mother, wife or sweetheart, which
sits down with them at every lire
side and goes to bed with them in
every homo—and that thought
is, 'Can the President of the
L'uited. HtJtlvs continue tu so pa
tiently manage our international
affairs as to leaiutain honorable
peace ?'
"The one bright, peaceful spot
under the sun this day is America
and it is so because tjie President
pleads guilty to the charge of
using words rather than shot and
shell and shrapnel. If America
is to lead the world toward that
now seemingly far distant goal
where brute force shall be bound
by wisdom and conscience iu fet
ters which it can never again
break, then -these are the hours
for mere words."

Ugh! Calomel Makes
You Deathly Sick
Stop Using Dangerous Drug
Before it Salivates you !
It's Horrible!
You're bilious, sluggish, consti
pated, anil believe you need vile,
dangerous calomel to Btart your
liver and clean your bowels.
Here's my guarantee! Ask your
druggist (or a 50-cent bottle of
Dodson's Liver Tone and take a
spoonful to-night. If it doesn't
start your liver and straighten you
right up better than calomel and
without griping or making you
sick, I want you to go back to
the drug store and get your
money.
Take calomel to-d.ay and to-mon
row you will feel weak, sick end
nauseated. Don't lose a days
work. Take a spoonful of harm
less, vegetable Dodson a Liver Tone
tonight and wake up feeling great.
It's perfectly harmless. Give it to
your children any time. It cant
salivate, so let them eat anything
they want afterwards.
The 64th Congress.
Statements by President Wilson and
Leader Kitchin - the Work
Accomplished and the
Prospective. - ,
I Congress adjourned Friday morn
ing, concluding a session record
breaking in many respects, wilh ap
propriations for the future running
well toward two billion dollars.
Congress at the session "Just closed
appropriated exactly $1,826,139,210
which with obligations and author
izations, makes a total pf #1.858.-.
334,485. During the session 17,SOI)
bills and 462 resolutions were in
troduced in the House. Of tbeie
252 became laws and 33 public res
olutions were adopted Ifi addition
to 150 private bills and resolutions
While the closing saw the ad
ministration legislative program
mainly completed, some things wail
to-be continued at the winter ses
sion ; notably the remainder of the
President's program of railroad
legislation, which was partly en
acted to prevent the threatened
strike.
In a formal statement, President
Wilson, speaking of the work of
Congress, gave notice that ti-.e re
mainder of the milroa 1 program
would be pressed at the new ses
sion. His statement was as follows
"A very remarkable session of
Congress has just closed, full as
all the recent sessions of Congress
have been, of helpful and huma.ie
legislation, which constitutes con
tributions of capital importance to
the defense, economic progress,ano
the wholesome life of the country.
"It is to be regretted th it the
sr>ssion could not have continued
long enough to complete the pro
gram recently projected with re
gard to the accommodations of la
bor disputes between the railways
and the employes, but it was not
feasible in the circumstances to
continue the session any longeranci
therefore only the most immedi
ately pressing parts of the program
could be completed.
"The rest, it is agreed r Jias mere
ly been postponed until it can be
more maturely debated and per
fected. I have every reason to be
lieve That it is Hie purpose of the
leaders of the two houses immedi
ately upon the reassembling of
Congress to undertake this addi
tional legislation. It is evident that
the country should bo relieved ol
the anxiety which must have been
created by recent events with re
gard to the future accommodation
of such disputes.'-
The immigration bill, the corrupt
practices bill, and the bill to per
mit combinations of American ex
porters to meet foreign competi
tion abroad went over.
The closing hours of Congreß.s
were remarkably quiet. Only the
presence of the President in his
room, near the Senate chamber,
served to attract interest to what
otherwise would have been an un
eventful ending of an eventful Con-
Congress.
There was disappointment, but no
bitterness over -the failure of some
measure* during the long session
and Democrats are proud of their
legislative record, with its six hun
dred million dollar National de
fense appropriations, the creating
of the farm loan hoard an.l rural
credit banking s.vstem, the child la
bor bill, the prevention of the n.i
tion-wide railroad strike, esta i
lishment of a Government ship
ping board to rehabilitate tie
American Merchant Marine, crea
tion of a tariff commission and
man.v other legislative enactments
of more than usual importance.
I'or the winter session the Demo
cratic leaders look to the railroad
legislation as the dominating fea
ture.
The subject next in importance
which Congress will consider will
be conservation ol National re
sources. Water power bills which
failed at this sessiyn will be re
vived, as well as measures for the
conservation of mineral resources
and for control of destructive flood
waters. First on the December pro
gram, however, will be the immi
gration bill with its Ii•- "rae.v test,
passed b.v the House but not the
Senate the present session, and tin
corrupt practices bill to reform
election methods which Senator
Owen vainly tried to get on the
statute books before adjournment
Representative Kitchin, majm-jtv
leader of the llouse 4 and chairman
of the ways and means committee,
who was not alwa.vs in nccord witti
the administration said before leav
ing the Capitol.
"We have put through more con
structive legislation than an.v oth
er session )f Congress. It has oeen
accomplished with good feeling all
around. There has oeen less Bit
terness and lesß filioustering in this
session than in an.v previous ses
sion within m.v recollection. On
the Democratic side we have had
united action and the session has
been eventful and epoch-making.
The Republicans pointing to the
appropriations and authorizations
for the future, amounting close to
two billions, closed their part. oT
the session reiterating charges of
extravagance and waste.

Mr. Harper J. Elam, who has
been with the Ureenslioro ltecord
for 20 years, is now advertising
manager of the Greensboro Patriot.
In the old days of haud composi

Henry Ford For Mr Wilson.
In an interview with the San
Francisco Bulletin, Henry Ford,
the Detroit automobile manufac
turer, says:
"Because of the many good
things President Wilson has done,
1 think he should he commended
and heartily appreciated. I don't
want to draw a parallel between
the professions and the aims of
the Republican and Democratic
parties. 1 had hoped to avoid
any newspaper publicity. I do
not desire to talk politics.
"Every neighbor you meet will
tell you the good things in the
administration of President Wil
son. I feel" just as these people
do about what he has doue, aud
realize keenly that his great neu
l rality policy durin.' the European
war lias had the patent successful
result of keeping this country at
peace. The efforts of his op
ponents to try and make political
capital because of President Wil
son's determination not to measure
swords with poor, deluded Mexico,
have already ended in distinct
failure."
