Nov' that the JSfew Year has been usherer! in the time is most avispi eiovis f' C the formation of good res- olulioE for the incoming year. iLlo:tg with many other people throcgrout the world where Chris tianity reigns and (siviliaatiou pre vails, ''e have formed a series of good ii^teutions wh ch we shall labor mos-tai.riiduously to bring to fruition. Th« 61 (it of these is the determina tion to continue to improve the Dis patch iutil it shall be one of the most ivsteresting and readable week ly newspapers published within the border :; of the great State of North Caroli ia. Another is the purpose to 3onunue to labor for a Greater BurIiinj,^ton and the development and adv'asi 'eraent >s Alamance county along the lines of education, indus- tri.-il H'd commercial growth. Ne: t, but by no means least it is ou)' in t'i>lion to to devote our besi €CS:*rgi‘ s and much time to an ofiFort to erei t a monument U> the memory of the fallen heroe’s from Alamance couut\ 5 who sacrificed their lives on V the aluir of tlieir country in defense of a C! jse which they believed to be right. In behalf of these now silent hero’s iod this tuost laudable object we ask the loyal support at,d heai tv co-operation of all the good people of Burilojjton, the eounty of Ala mance and the state at large We feel asi-'ired that an appeal to the lovjrs of valor and true patrioiisnt will iii> be in vain. VVifh this briet o tline o^ ;>ur good inlentions for tht year 1910, we wisli every reader and patron of the Dispatch a happ and prosperous New Year. Just One Instance. 'iPi'i lilintion has been in opera- lloii iu;N%)Cib Carolina oue year to day. fVhat has be-n the effect? .. , , , la w ,, 1 . . u Jii)erate laJ.'^ehoon, and that too ritflit The .Jshnigt(iU Progress gives tins ^ Deliberately Stabbed. Under date of December 22 1909, there appeared in the columns of our friend and neighbor, the Bur lington News the following article Our neighbor The State Dis patch, which is ever ready to discuss all situations having a political sig-r hifi«ance, failed to give its opinion of the change of front ot President Taft in appointing Mr. Blair rather than confirm the appoiulmeiit of the Trinity College professor, as Census Director of this Distrio- Consid erable mention was made by The Dispatch of the appointment of the Professor, and comment was made, that if the case had been in the hands of the Democrats, that so such non partisanship would have been dis play t“d After marching up the hill, the President marched down again, and appointed a Republitian in good standing, and one that was sufficient ly active to entitle him to the office. We approve ot the appointment of Mr. Blair, because to the victor be long the spoils, but after so much had been said about the great mag nanimity of the party in selev-ting non-partisan men, we thought in “order to keep history straight/’ The Dispatch should acknowledge that they were not so awfully “noa- partisan” in these appointment? af ter all. It reminds us of a story we heard. A fellow was trying to trade horses, and understanding that a fellow he was trying to trade with wanted a fest horse, he elaborated on the speed of his beast, declaring that he could make it in 2;40 ai^d so on. When the other fellow could be heard, and get a word in he said he didn’t want a fast horse, he wanted a good old sh)w family horse. The fellow saw where he had busted, and re covering himself, and spitting on the ground to hide his confusion, he said with a little change of color. “Well, come to think about it, old Dan aiut so alfired fast as you mought suppose after what I ve said.” So when the thing wound up, the Republican party was not so anxious to keep politics out of the eensus appoinlmcnts as some would make believe. Mr. Morehead, the Republican representative, demanded that Mr. Blair be named, because of his Ju dicial uctivity iu his campaign, and thu s demanded that political reasons be the ruling qualification iu the appointment, and he'won out.” Now, dear contemporary, you say that considerable mention was made by The Dispatch, of the appoint ment of the Prof essor, and that com ment was made that if the ca»e had been in the hands of the Democrats that no such non-partisanship would have been displayed. Now neigii- bor, you must have begun to imbibe pretty eaHy, earlier than most editors can affordj we fear, or you would not have made such a reckless state ment. I’here has never appeared a lint; in the columns of the Dispatch regarding the appointment of Pro fessor Glasson, or any one else as Supervisor 6f the Censusi for this District. This bpitig the trtith, ju^t wiiy you should (‘oiicoct su«h a de- testitiK (ly: “ ‘ i’erm before lust of our cr: uiual court took less tlian three (iJ.ys to try all tlie cases and th(i Lij;, term ittn>k only one and a ha if d: ys to try tiie docket.

I)’ sue reports from the courts in otlier :;0unlies were as encouraging as thi' we might have some hope of bett'ji results from prohibition, but this only one instance. It is pos sible Hiat there are other causes for the g . eat falling off of cases in the Siipe) or courts, it is the case in some counties where Recorders cour^Mhave been established, giving their! greater jurisdiction, natu:tally diiiU* sshes the cases before the Su perior' courts. Take Raleigh as an iost^iivce and you will;|.find more casesr before the Police Justice and raor. cases in Superior court too, for that ‘Batter. There are other places too, equally as bad. Now, the News and Observer will have to produce betfcii,' proof than the above to provt its (f intention. at the time "^ hen that beautiful sen timent of, our liord and S^ivior, Jesus Christ, v;as spreading ovei' the land, “Peace ou earth an#l good will tt)Ward men ” If this article had appeared just after Christmas, instead of before as It did, we would have takeii’ a char itable view of the matter and ex cused you upon the ground that you were suffering from some hallucina tion caused from over feasting. But coming as it did, our only logical conclusion is that you are as reck less with the trul;h as that monu mental liar and fakir of North Pole fame, Dr. Frederick Cooi:. llie Business Outlook. From time immemorial the iron and steel industry has been regarded by the business people of the Cuun- try as a true barometor of toe con dition oftrade and commerce. There are many good reasons for this cou- dence in the state of the iron and steel industries. It shotdd be plain to even the most cjisual' observer that the activity in the iron and steel markets is induced by increased rail road construction and improvement which in turn increases the demand tor labor ail along the line, from the ore bed, the coal mine, the trans portation lines, the car shops, to the field of construction. This increan- ed demand for labor stimulates prices and raises the wage "scale of the laborer, which increases his pur chasing capacity and stimulates the price and insreases the activity in every line of business knowTnto civ ilization. It the iron and steel jonriials are to be credited the outlook fur these important factors of trade is most roseate, which means great business activity iu every line of business for the year 1910. Commenting on trade conditions, the Iron Age says: All the steel works have had an unexpected volume of new business in December, many of them in fact having sold considerably more ma terial than they have shipped. The Iron Trade Review says; It nas been definitely decided by important iron interests thst there will be an advance of 50 cents a ton on Bessemer grades, and that there will be no change in the base guar antee of iron content of either Bbs- semer or non-Bcssemer grades^ No formal action has, however, been taken. The American Steiel and Wire Company will begin at once the bu Iding of a modern blast fur nace at its central plant in Cleve land, involving the expenditure of about ^1,250,000. To add to the beauty of the pict-. ure it can be truthfully said that the feeling existing between the trans portation companies of the country and the public is more assuring^than it has been for years. Th& New York times cornmeDting on the sub ject remarks; “II is doubtful whether toe Inter- State Commerce Commission ever made a more satisfactory report of the business before it. The Dumber of complaints alters less than their character. More than half of the formal complaints now pending in volve only claims for small amounts of reparation. If Senator Depew, of New York, is to be credited the government is sharing in the great prosperity which prevails over the country for be lemarked in a spet;ch delivered on the floor or tne Senate just be fore the holidays that: “Of the ^15^000,000 of addition al reveiuje gained from the increase, of tariff duties upon liquors and luxuries, about oite-h jlf of it is lost agMio in the ridiK tion of the tariff trotiia th(i prt'sent rate upon the nec essaries of life. But when we add to the additional revenue these ar ticles the nearly $10,000,000 mure whicrh is to come from tobacco, and from 125,000,000 to $30,000,000 which is to come from th« corpora tion tyx, and the still adtlitioual in come which will c>ome from prosper ity and greater purchasing piowers, our revenues will be in excess of ex penditures and the Government on ‘Eai^v Street’.’’ N Rf W Molfc & Western 5 smm JUNE 20, 1909.
