WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, OCT. 12. 1915.
If you haven't yet taken advantage of the many bargain* offered
by the merchants during "Drws Up Week," make it a point to visit
their stores tomorrow, before all of their stock is gone.
A. D. C. powers are in accord with the U. S. on the Mexican
policy. Let us hope that the newest development? will lie success
ful in promoting P. E. A. C. E.
The coal man and the wood man have captured the trenches of
tho ice man.?News and Observer. But no matter who occupies
the treuchea. Father gets it in the neck just the same.
"So many men are handicapped by their beauty," moans tho
Greenville Reflector. And so are the women. Son.
The News and Observer wants to make every clay in the year
Fire Prevention day. We refuse to join in the movement. Theso
cold mornings we've simply got to have a tire.
ROTTEN JOURNALISM.
As a sample of the filthiest, dirtiest and most utterly shameful
journalism, we are reproducing an editorial which appeared in the
Washington Progress of Inst week. Realizing the futileness of its
attacks against the Daily News. The Progress turns it? attention t
trie Greenville Reflector and publishes the followiug slanderous staf
uient against the editor of that paper:
"That thing, whatever it is or wherever it ?tays. j
which write* rot for the Greenville Reflector, is nothing
but a low common meddler into tho affairs of others
and is unworthy of notice or the respect of decent
people. When The Progress took notice of what it
wrote we were under the impression that without know
ing the facts or the record of Jim Mavo whom it was
defending it had done itself and its an injustice we
f?Jt that it was nothing but fair to it to give it an op
portunity to correct its error. Now that it is clear
that it does not desire to be fair and ha> lent its col
umns to a writer of such low and depraved methods.
The Progress aj>ologizcs to its readers for replying to
it, which was done in good faith, and promises to pay
no attention to the prating of such a low base source
only when it shall become necessary to do so to protect
public interest. Of course this was the method adopted
adopted to divert this paper and the public mind from
the record of Jim Mayo, which we propose to drop un
til he tries to mislead the people again."
Seldom, if ever, have we ever seen any article that has cause 1
a more profound s<*nse of disgust than the above. It is a pity that
the Progress cannot find something better to do than to make per
sonal attacks against its contemporaries. Washington and Beaufort
county could realize much benefit through tho space which the Pro
gress now uses in denouncing other papers. The editor of that
paper, however, does not seem to take that view of the matter.
The editorial evidently was not exactly to the liking of the Re
flector, for that paper came out tho following day with a short but
strongly-word*d paragraph against the Progress. The Reflector'
would have done better if it had paid no attention to such muck
raking articles as appear from time in the Progress. The Reflector
article was as follows:
"We should lik" very much to get a look at that phc
nomi-nal specimen of supposed humanity that writes
slush thai fills the columns of the Washington Prr^
gress. Wo have our own ideas a Wit his origin and we
would iike to look at IT to sen if our guess is correct."
The Progress blasts of "protecting public interests." All tho
''public intcrr-sts" that tie* Progress has ever protected, could bo
written on the hack <>f n postage stamp with half of the stamp
torn off.
Til K CIRCUS.
There is no amusement in the world that probably furnishes more
general fun and 'b light than the circus. Young and old, from the
time the first bill 1?. ard appears on the streets, eagerly await the
arrival of flic big event and long after if has passrd, it remain?
with them as a most pleasant recollection.
Older people enjoy the circus ns much?if not more than the
youngster*. It isn't the events and hundreds of attraction* that
appeal to them so much an it ih the general atmtmpherc and siir-,
rounding* of days g<.ne by. It reminds ihein of their liovhood and
youth. It is of leu surprising to see some xtat*)v ?|,| gentleman?
passing through the circus grounds with a highly dignified air. lie
may lie some high official or prominent citizen. and one cannot help
but wonder what he can find to attract him to a circus. Hut 'wav
down deep?under that coat of dignity and pride tin re is prob
ably just as much ''boy" in thai man as there it* in the moat tawdv
headed youngster thai plays One O" Cat in the back-lots of the eitv.
Then again you will prolmhly see some elderly man. leading a eh i id
along by the hand. You immediately surmise that he is at the
eircn? in order to show his child tho sights. Sev'ii times out of
ten, however, you would probably l>e wrong, ami if you h*?k the
trouble to inquire into mattors, yon would, in all likplilmod. find
that the child was borrowed from some neighbor in order to furnish
an excuse for our "elderly gentleman's" presence at the circus.
When the circus cornea to Washington Fridry, and you sec *.tn<
of our highly respected and most dignified citizens throwing pencil!*
at the elephants and laftghing them sel ve? sick over the clowns' antics,
don't think that they have gone into their second childhood;?thev
are there for the purpose of bringing back some of the recollection*
of days long gone by and to join in the fun with the young boy*
find girls again.
It's a great thing?it t circus.
