Cotton is heaveny in price "German frat remains unshaken Not so the affront, however. Roosevelt must write his speeches with an axe. ThP Wnndrow Wilson Club meets tonight. Be thar. The real straw vote is when true Kentuckians gather to sip mint juleps Democratic headquarters and Re publican money-quarters. "Wonder how Hughes feels now?" asks a writer. As usual. Just sore sore. King Constantine' is still managing y to keep his equilibrium on the sway ing high wire. With every conscientious Progres sive, Colonel Roosevelt's reason will be swallowed up by his treason. No automobile for King Cotton. The airships for "his'n," as they say in South Carolina. The Bremen is evidently trying to ... be the record-breaking mystery of the deep. so that this entire section will be bene fited, a fine thing, j It is for it. The Chief also endorses another splendid 2og ! proposition; that of a paper mill for this -section. The Dispatch stands for bothof these things. Each is not only need ed, but would provide means of takr ing advantage of North Carolina re sources. That is the great object these days of every state. North Car-i olina is plentiful and rich in wood, from which: paper can be' made', arid there is no reason why this resource should not be accepted. Other states take advantage of raw material that is on the scene, why not North CaroL lina? It, is .not a , wiiocat scneme, but something that when investigated will show that it is worth while. The thing to do Is for the skeptics to in vestigate. Some tangible move , should ' be made. Says the Chief: "Wilmington is mqving for a .pack ing house to be: established in that growing city and all contiguous terri-' tory is interested because of the oppor tunity to revive tpck growing, which will mean much for the fertility of the land that has been so long stim ulated by the excessive use of manu factured fertilizer while the humus has been to a great extent exhaust ed. A packing house would mean much to the city and for the sur rounding country. "But there is another matter that the capitalists of Wilmington and of all this section should be interested in, and that is a paper mill. A half million dollars Invested in a fifty ton paper mill and timber sufficient to supply the pulp wood perpetually al most would pay for itself in cne year. It is strange that our moneyed men do not investigate this proposition It would be a great thing not only for Wilmington, but for the country with- in a radius oi one nunarea mnes. oi that city, as it would supply a mar ket at" a fine profit for second growth pine as well as other varieties of pulp wood. Why wait for the paper trust an Utopian dream, may have eason to alter their opinion . before f long. Alittle, more bad wearier and little f piore; increased demand, or, perhaps, the former- is not needed at all,; will send the price up to 20 cents ;The government , report yesterday, - show ing a condition that was only 6.3 .over half, being ' a, 'drop of about five per cent, sirfce the previous report, sent the price skyrocketing. Records were smashed left, and right. On theWilr inington market cotton reached its highest point , of the season. Several eks ago when the 15-cent level was eahferest naturally sprang up Take Salts to Flush Kidneys If Back Hurts, or Bladder ' Bothers. " linaWise Old If you must vhave your meat every day, eat It, but flush' your kidneys withl salts occasionally, says a noted author ity who tells us1 that meat forms urfc acid which almost paralyzes the kid neys in their efforts to expel it from the blood. They become sluggish and weaken, them you . suffer with a , dull misery in the kidney; region; sharp pains in the back or sine headache, dizziness, your stomach sours, tongue is coated and wnen the weather is bad you have rheumatic twinges. The urine gets cloudy, full of sediment, the channels often get sore and irrigated, obliging you to seek relief two or three times duing the night, - To neutralize these'irritatlng acida, to cleanse the "kidneys and flush off the body's urinous waste get four and wonderment filled the air. Yet it not only remained at 15 cents, K but advanced to 15 5-8 and yesterday even topped that figure. A ' . 6f course, the slumps in the condition was directly responsible for yester day's jump in- cotton, north, west; and south, but the 'demand for cotton is going to be more responsible than the , ounces Gf Jad Salts from any pharm deterioration.

This famous salts is made from the acid of grapes and lemon Juice, combined with lithla, and has been used for generations to flush and stimulate sluggish kidneys, also to neu tralize the acids in urine, so it no long er irritates, thus ending bladder weak-1 ness. . ?.

Still the present high price of cot- ! ton and the conditions governing it now and .in future should not intoxi cate the farmers of- the South. While they should plant ample cotton, they should not go wild on the subject and get back to the Old days of a single crop. The war must have taught thenxa lesson; not only that it is dan gerous to depend on the single-crop, but that it is profitable at all times, WOODROW WILSON CLUB FORMED Rocky Mount, N.

" ' - f DOING OPTIMISM. WILL SPEAK TWICE. Senator Elect -EH. Cfanmer to Speak at Winter Park and Seagate. Senator Elect E. H. Cranmer, of Southport, Nf4;C, will deliver ad dresses to the voters this week and unusually large crowds are expected to hear him,. Mr. Cranmer will j speak at the Winter Park In our judgment the best cartoon of the political campaign, so far, is presented by the New York World. It represents Richard Olney leading a billygoat, while, speechless with rage, in the background stands Charles E. Hughes. It is a case of Olney having gotten Hughes' goat. This is a trite way of putting it, but undoubtedly it sizes up the situation. When Mr. Olney declared that Charles Evans Hughes could have ad vised a filibuster, which would have prevented the passage of the eight hour bill before Labor Day and thus the country would have been in the throes of a strike, the same as if con gress had not acted at all or the Pres ident had remained hands off, he placed Mr. Hughes in a hole. With one fell blow Mr. Olney took the wind out of Hughes' sails and left him drift ing helplessly. Of course Mr. Hughes did not advise anything. He was afraid to move, but with determination to yell against anything that Wilson might do. Had the strike materialized the same Can didate Hughes would today be bellow ing about Wilson listening to railroad magnates and placing the responsibil ity upon the President for the great disaster that a strike would have caused. He is telling the shippers that rates will be advanced, though there is no justification for his argument, but fails to tell them how much they would have lost had a strike been al lowed to break in all its fury. Yea, "anything to beat Wilson" f are the people fools. The, State sustained another loss yesterday in the passing of John. C.

By FRANK G. ODELL, (Editor Nebraska Farm Magazine.) Do you know that your postoffice is nowan employment bureau? That is one of the new things Uncle Sam has started "during the present" adminis tration. Secretary Wilson11 of the de partment of labor has tackled the task of bringing' thev jobless man and the manless job together, and now every postoffice is an agency of the United States employment service. The postmaster is equipped with nec essary blanks for listing applications for labor or for employment and is instructed to help get the worker and the job in contact. Whiie this may appear to oe princi pally in the interest of the worker, it Is really one' of the numerous far reaching things started for the benefit of the farmer by the administration of President Wilsbn. The increasing scarcity of farm labor" has become a problem to the farmer, especially ' in the wheat growing and fruit growing sections. This labor, which Is of a seasonal character, necessarily must be performed largely by itinerant workers. Some agency which will meet this demand and relieve the laborer, of the graft of employment agencies Js necessary. Uncle Sam has started it. A single illustration will show how tie system, works: In the Willamette valley of Oregon, thousands of temporary workers x are needed in hop picking time. On Aug. 20 the Oregon Journal of Portland printed a ;news article about the new government employment! agency, 'stat ing that 600 families .could obtain im mediate employment In" the hop yards by applying at the Portland division of the federal employment service. This Is another item added to the mass of accumulating evidence which shows that the Wilson administration has tried to give both labor and the farmer a square deal. For the first time in history this administration has placed the needs of rural districts squarely before congress, as of equal importance with the interests of the financial centers. . i auu way . nocr f inancial centers OCuOOi f rvn1i4 n Af arvwuin m 1 4.1 A. a.1 I . . wuv uwi, Afuvuub its uiutU WILUVM1U tut? nijae Diiiion dollar crop of the Amerf- K ;!.(, -Fifty-Sixth North Carolina State Fair LEI G H Tickets will be sold for all trains by the Atlantic Coast Line The Standard Railroad of the South Oetw 14 to 21 Inclusive From Wilmington at $4.85 for the round trip, including admission to the Fair, -limited returning until midnight of October 23, 1916.

But the "interests, of the farmer have not always been so prom inently and favorably considered by congress as they have during the last I three years. The record of Democratic i claims for farmer support is a record i of accomplishment. It reads like this !
