The season for niunlcliKil cam paigns as well as school comimence ments Bum to have begun In earn est. Between tlm two, newspaper reailers will tiava pktity to occupy their attention during the next few weeks. It lit strange, but it Is generally true, that disasters f various kinds happen lit series. A few months ago railroad wrecks on the Southern seenwd to bo the order of the day. Ijatcly there has bwn a noticeable freedom from this kind of thing. Winaton-SalK'tni has been getting quite a good deal of publicity in va rious business publications recently. The Tradesman, the Business Maga zine and the Manufacturers' Record have all had strong article. 8, present ing the claims of W'lnston-Salein in a most effective manner. The editor of tho Union Republi can and "Justice" are making a stren uous ffort to defend the fusion ad min 1st rat lot) In North Carolina.

It Is to bo IuiihhI the North Cam- Una Bankers' Association will accept their annual convention hero this month. The note I facilities here are Winston Salem's Invitation to hold entirely adequate and the Twin-City would entertain tlw bufekrrs In the most 'approved manner. Now that the Jamestown Expos! tkm Is on, the hotel mid transporta tion p'Ople there are having their In ning. There is no indication that the UKital rule of making exorbitant char ges on such occalona Is not being strictly adhered to by many people In these lines. If th t o Is one place where n ffeoUvc regulation is really needed It Is with reference to charg es at big expositions. The local baseball enthusiasts Should "get busy" to the end that Winston-Salem may liave a Imscball learn this suniiiner. It Is to be hoped that a nu etlng will be called soon anil arrangements inade for sport of this kind during tho long summer months. Some form of amusement and recreation Is needed Jn tine sum mer, and a good baseball team will do much to supply this need. Year Tax Rate $1.35. lS!lt; Coriio. taxes assessed.

However, the district attorn y seems to be los ing no sleep over the rumor that his ofllelal head Is to be cut off. Such rumors have been in circulation a few times before.

You will note that while the city has grown and taxable values are lurger, the current excuses have notgrown in proportion, and an addition al amount each year has gone Into valuable properties Increasing assets over liabilities, so that today we have actually $48,500.00 surplus of assets over all bonds and debts due by the city. The rapid growth of our town both In population and taxable values will easily bring sufficient returns at $1.00 tax rate to provide all the nec essary revenue for all current exiens?s, h managed with the same econ omy, and leave at least $25,000 annually to go to street work; $5,000 to sanitary work and nialntainance of sewers, and $10,000 for the extension of water and sewer mains. At the same time there will be ample funds to provide for special ex penditures which will have to be met as shown In this exhibit under the head of "Emergency and Investment Expenditures."

AT BURK- About Twenty-Five Professed Faith in Christ at Last Night's Service Services Tonight. Tho interest being manifested in tho misetinfis , at Burkhead M. h. church continues to increase, llie powerful and forceful sermon which was preached last nigM by Rev. J. R. Moose caused many to determine to lead a new life and to accept the lx)rd Jesus Christ as their Savior. The discourse of la.st night was based upon tlva First Epistle to the Coriii'tlilans and thirteenth chapter. Mr. Moose explained this chapter In an earnest manner and in such a way as only one who trusts fully in ills power would be. ablio to do. It was indeed encouraging to his efforts to see so many young people convert ed, the number b'.ing about' twenty- five. There were no services this after noon but Mr. Moose will preach again tonight at 8 o'clock. Coldest April in Years.

The cold was almost con tinuous except for brief intervals of a day or so of warm wvatli'Tr, and it closed with remarkable temperatures in the interior valWs ti:nl the south west.
