With the election of Wilson for
President it seem* that prices on farm
products advanced.
An exchange says that Teddy .has
been quoted as being "delighted."
There is no doubt of it ? his aim has
keen accomplished. > .
TaiU has been much speculation in
regard to the new cabinet, but Presi
' dent elect Wilson is wise enough to
keep them guessing. He gives out the
iaformation that he will take it under
con aide ration for a few months.
Sbmator Simmons, like the big
hearted man he ts, says in subetanee
that "'he has overlooked everything
unpleasant in the recent campaign and
that he wants all the people of the
State, whether they were his support
ers or not, to call on him when it is
possible for him to serve them, that
be will take pleasure in doing w hat he
can in their behalf.''
Jack Johnson, the negro pugulist.
has been jailed in Chicago, to await a
hearing for the violation of the Mann
white slaTe act. He was allowed bond
in the' sum of ?30,0c0 but was not al
lowed to put up a cash deposit. A man
named lones was also taken into" cus
tody for perjury in representing him
self capable of giving bond for John
son, which was proven not true.
Johnson is one of those impudent kind
of negroes that needs to be dealt with
and it is to be hoped that Uncle Sam
will handle him this time.
CAN'T IT Bl REMEDIED?
Several Sundays in the past few
months we have noticed that the town
has operated the wacons for hauling
? havings to the Twer house for fuel
t) furnish lights to the town on Sun
day nights. No* we don't want to be
misunderstood in this matter. We
dun't believe in p.etending to be a re
ligious community and at the same
time allow the misuse of the Sabbath.
We have not attempted to investigate
the conditions in this matter because
of ths fact that we rculd see only one j
excuse and that would be that there
were not enough shavings at the
mill on Saturday or the remain
der of the week to supply the demand.
This of course is insufficient as the
mills do not run on Sunday. The
trouble must lie in the fact that the
town has an insufficient number of
teams or wagons to do this hauling,
unless there is some neglect, and the
other work they are used for. There
is also no deubt but that those in
charge of this are handicapped or have
net realised the conditions and are
. honestly applying economic plans^of
government, which the town really
needs. But with all these can it be
possible that for the sake, possibly, of
saving a few dollars, the streets of
our town rhould be a scene of such un
necessary misuse ot the Sabbath?
Really gentlenmn, ul- the heeybfTTeer
ing, do yotf think it right for the town
to violate the s^eredaess of the Sab
bath when it is supposed to hob) it in
trust? We don't believe anyone will
claim it necessary that this practice
should continue, from the fact that
it can be done in the remaining six
days, and we believe all will agree with
us that it wcnld loek mach better. It is
true the power plant is ran on Sunday
night, but that is recognized a neces
sity that cannot be supplied otherwise,
and therefore leads no encouragement
to the argument of hauling shavings on
Sunday.
Gentlemen who have authority to
makg tin change let's, for the benefit
ef Chris tiaaity, for appsarnnce, for
the effect it will have en the future
generation, stop that which shows such
unconcern in the keepiig of the Bab
bath day holy.

Dp- Joe 11. Bzzell
Joseph Hargrove Uzzell died at the
l>iversity Hospital, Baltimore, Mary
land, Tuesday night October 22nd 1912
of pneumonia. ,
r Inexpressibly sad J*s the meesage

It la indeed hard to associate death
with cm so young, a* fall ef Hfe and

man in the full-tide of health and life;
with so rauch to liyd for. and before
th j lirsV^rouixi of the race of life ha*
j been ran. Joe was an only child, tJhv,
I ao-i of a big-hearted, genial father who
w?.s full of bish^aat hopes and aiv.bi
ti-?ns for him, and a coble unselfish
r. other whoso every heart throb was
for her bov.
Jse was bom in MapleviKe twenty
five years age. He received his edu
cation first at Mapieville, Ho-ner's
Military Sebovl, and OyflfRidge Insti
tute. Ilia earliest ambition was to be
came a physician, and he received his
medical training at the University ot
Maryland aad Baltimore, where he
toek a stand at the head of his class.
His was a bright mind, and he poe
sesscd a manner that was charming In
the sick room and many of those in
born qaalitiej which go to make the
ideal physician. He loved his chosen
profession, and during hia summer va
cations he wps ever ready. to answer
the cal? of the sisk in his neighborhood
and elsewhere and was exceedingly
popular as a doctor among all slaaaes.
Socially. he was widely known and
loved; because of hia generofity, at
tractive personality, bright, sunny dis
position lie was everywhere a favorite
and a tender. ,
Joe was a member of the "Kappa
S'grna" Fraternity and order of
"Craftsmen" of Baltimore and belong
ed to A. F . & A. M. Ledge of Ma
sons in Louisburr.
Rarely has Louisburg and its vi
cinity ever been stirred to its depths as
bv the death of this young man.
Countless were the expressions of love
na?l svmpathy extendi to the grief
stricken parents. The extreme kind
nesj of the doctors and friends to the
father and uncle when on their sad
mission to Baltimore, signify 'the
high esteem in which Dr. Uxzell was
held in that e'.ly and nlitu.v ei^uidlie
floral designs were stent with there

old colored mammy and nurse, from
Norfolk. They received the message
too late to attend the funeral, hut ame
next day, showing the loving remem
brance in which they held their former
charge.
Hack to his childhood's home they
brought him, the place so fraught with
memories of his earlier years, and there

Nearly a Quarter of a Million People Have Been Treated
For Thia Scourge of All Warm Climates ? State*
? - . and Countiea Co-operating
THE light against the ravage* of
bookworm disease In the United
States la one of the moat Inspir
ing a ill hopeful events ever re
corded In the ake long history of man's
struggle against ailments that aap his
strength and weaken him in body and
mind
It la a light against an enemy ef man
kind that Infests- every country In the
world that IS" blessed with a war m cli
mate, and therefore la found In this
cuuutt) in our southern statea.
It la an lnaplring fight to the victim
s< the dlwia, for it brings him relief
from pain and illness, reatorea him to
healthful vigor, rnakea life again worth
living and lifts him to a higher plane
of usefulness to himself and to hla
community.
It la an Inspiring flight to the patri
otic lover of America, tor It showa bow
when philanthropist and scientist fur
nish the means and the knowledge how
quickly American people, through their
state and county government and by
their individual efforts, will help to
solve certainly a problem that waa for
eentnries deemed unsolvable.
For so long s time that the memory
of man runneth not to the cofiUarj
people living In warn climates have
suffered from thin Moodeineas, from
lassitude, from Inability to work with
either mind or body la a faahlon hap
pily unknown to people in the colder
latitudes. Many name* were given ta
these tU?ss??e and naj oms ware
suggested, but the great majority of
the suffersrs never found relief la an
their blighted Uvea.
Than caste the adapt* sad hie m>
droacope and found that the trouble
was that tiny worms, too aman lor the
eye ts abounded In poDatad sail.
I through the skin of a person's feet and
found their way Into his bowels, there
to grow larger and to fasten themselves
In the wall of the bowels and sock the
blood of the Iccklees victim. And
more, there to lay eggs to pollute the
?oil that an endless chain of suffering
might be kept up. When the micro
scope found how these worms were
socking people's blood, then the chem
ist found that a certain drug . would
kill them and not hurt the person who
took It Thus science laid the founda
tion tat this great light
The health agents started In to do
their work, teaching the people net
only how to be cured of the disease,
but bow to prevent it In the future
Soon they bad obtained the hearty co
operation of county and school district
governments, of physicians and of citi
zens generally? not least to be men
tioned that of the victims of the dis
ease, who came for miles snd miles to
the dispensaries to be treated.
That la bow the light was organised.
