TUESDAY EVENING. MAY 30, 1916 Well, the Wrjghtsville publicity campaign is on in earnest. Cowan has opened up at last and makes it known that tha "blue ribbon summer resort of the South Atlantic coast" will atart its 1916 season next week. ; .. y . 'Tha Old North State is honored beyond measure this year by the visits of ao many of 'the nation's foremost men.' President Wilson. Vice-President Marshall, Secre taries Daniels, McAdoo, Lane and others have lent their presence to our various State and educational ceremon ies. The BlacVstone (Va.) Courier has just issued a twenty-four page Progress Edition. Jir. II. C. Scott, who assisted in getting; out The Freo.PrasVs Opportunity edi tion last year, assisted Editor Lajid in compiling a very interesting paper. Tha market facilities for handling tobacco and otheo crops of the Nottoway section were splendidly exploited, and the edition gives credit, to Blackstone and the Courier, What "will Kinston do with reference to its city gov ernment? is the question which wellanay be in the minds of every cltlsen. Will tha people of Kinston be contenf to continue year after year to pay out a thousand dol lars in a mayor's salary and permit the duties which ought to be performed by that official be placed upon al dermen, who are not themselves compensated adequately for executive duties? was promised a few days ago when the supporters of Messrs. Glass and James were in such a fever of excite ment, a COMMISSIONERS DRAFT RESOLUTIONS. In criticising the convict system in Lenoir County in Superior Court last week, Judge liond said that it did not appear .hat the commissioners had ever formulated any rules or published any in accordance with the 1913 public laws of North Carolina. The only action, it ap peared, that had been taken, Judge Bond said, was the passing of a resolution empowering the road superin tendent to adopt such rules and rejrula'.ions aa he saw fit and that it did not appear that any rules whatsoever hud been posted for the information of the conviels. Monday afternoon the commissioners held a special meeting and drafted rules, which it appears from a cas ual reading, should materially improve the working con ditions for the convicts. The rules are specific and it is understood ;hat each and every convict is to be made acquainted with them before he is subjected to punish ment for violation. It is safe to predict that the service from the convicts will under 'ihe revised order of things be much more satisfactory. The rules require all pun ishment to he administered either by the road superin tendent or in his presence and under his direction. That rhould insure not only a fair hearing but humane treat ment in the indicting of punishment. The Free Press felt that Judge Bond's firm stand against the barbarous methods, alleged to have been permitted in the handling of the convicts, would result in good and the prompt action of the commissioners but bears out that prediction. ocratic party to nominate Mr. Bick ett at this time. He is a far better campaigner than Mr. Daughtridge, will be able to spare the time to sTump the state and will hold his own against any opponent. Mr. Daught ridge could not meet the opposition on the stump and ability to talk seems to be the chief qualification in running for office in North Carolina There is nd. a candidate in the field who has exceptional ability, 'but so far. as we know they are all hon est. That's the main consiJcration. Bickett would be the ablest man ii the campaign next fall if he is nom ir.atcd, and thal is why thoughtful Democrats should give his candidacy consideration."

Gram Wednesday. adv Political Announcements WHAT OTHERS SAY The dear peoplo who may be suffering from the exces sively hot weather, politicians-and other seasonable an noyances may console themselves' by the realization 'that the crop of political solicitor! will be largely eliminated after this week. This being the final week of the first campaign in the State preceding,, a stwte-wide' primary it behooves every good citizen to gfv'e some thought to tha matter if they have not already made their choices for the various offices that are to Jbe filled. If the wrong men are elected the people have only themselves to blame. w . The following very kind words are taken from the es teemed New Bern Sun: ! "Kinston is to have a new union passenger station soon and the residents of that '.own are i mightily pleased over this matter. Kinston is fast forging to the front, faster than a number of towns in (this section, and we would not be surprised to see it one of the leaders of the Stato before many years have passed." We can very easily return the compliment and con gratulate New Bern on the splendid progress that it is making. 1 The spectacular contest for National Democratic Com motteemcn from Virginia, which has been waged for some weeks past between Representative Carter Glass and Col. Rorer James, has suddenly been brought to an end by the withdrawal of Mr. James. It is understood that Mr James withdrew after having been promised the chairmanship of the State Democratic Committee. Mr. Glass denies any knowledge of such an agreement, so does jGoverWr Stuart All the leaders are visibly pleas ed, however, with the harmony stroke which Congress man Flood is said to have brought about by withdrawing himself from the race for. State Chairman. The conven tion at Roanoke will therefore be a tame affair, to what THE CONTEST ENDS. Richmond News Leader: "The withdrawal of Colonel Rorer A. James from the contest for national committee man is due to two reasons: Party leaders were anxious to avoid discord during the presidential year and, second ly, they were unwilling to appear before the people of Virginia as sponsoring a movement that would deprive the Slate of the services of a most capable man in a position for which he was peculiarly qualified solely be cause he was not in sympathy with the dominant fac tion in the state. "We shall nd. attempt to gauge the relative import ance of these two motives as they actuated party lead ers. Where harmony is not bought at the price of honor and efficient public service, it is always desirable, and rever more so than during a year, when even a sorely Democratic State wishes to present a united front. None welcomes harmony under such circumstances more than does this newspaper. "Time alone will tell whether the withdrawal of Col. James' name, for begrudging concession to propriety and public opinion or whether it indicates a new willingness on the part of Democratic loaders to avail themselves of true ability, it mal'.ters not where it may be found. If Col. James was asked to forego his ambition because party leaders felt they could not afford to brook the growing sentiment in behalf of Mr. Glass, then the re result will ndt be any lasting lessening f factional feel ing in Virginia. But if one Democrat was urged to itep aside because a better-equipped man could be had, then a precedent has been set that may be of the greatest im portance in unifying Virginia Democrats. "This newspaper has never believed there was any peculiar virtue in, the name 'machine' or 'anti-machine.' We never have and we never will recognize the vested right of any group of men to public office. We shall always concede the right of Col. James or any other hon est man to run for any office he desires. We only de mund that Uhe parity support the best men who offer and that it make the test service to the people, not subser vience to a faction, ability to lead, not amenabill y to follow."
