Last Friday night about the fourteenth wreck for the year hap pened on the A. C. I*. road just the other side of the switch. No one knows the cause. No one can explain just why it happenedi?for we have in this country the finest Nad-bed to be fouud anywhere. It is a safe road to ride on—even so safe as to render it unnecessary for one to purchase an accident or life policy. So don't be afraid to ride on the Plymouth branch of the A. C. L. It is absolutely safe. We have such a system because the people demand it. Railroad* are semi-public in their very na ture, and being HO they must use extraordinary care to prevent acci dents, and on our road the letter oi the law is carried out in this re gard. Therefore it is difficult for us to explain all these wrecks we have had of late. There must be some unforseen cause that produces them or they would not happen. Surely they could not be caused by rotten cross ties or loose spikes, for all these matters are diligently attended to. Everybody who travels over the rosd knows that it is in a perfectly safe and sound condition, and they therefore wonder why we have so many wrecks. We would advise you to secure an accident policy before taking a trio ou our road —but it is unnec ceasary. If you are very timid f you had better get a policy from Kador Crawford, as we cannot un derstaud the cause of these unfore seen wrecks. / / Economic Future of the Negro That the negroes of the South are facing a future of grave uncer tainty is the only conclusion which can be drawn from a discussion which took place at the recent an nual meeting of the Kconomic As sociation at Baltimore. This is due to the tact that the colored race will have to meet a strong competition from the foreigner who is coming South. It is a ques tion ot the survival of the fittest. Especially telling were the fig tires showing the Kreater industry, thrift and stability of Italian work ers as compared with the blacks. Although the economic future of the colored race is dark, vet in some sections of the South, as in Lowndes county, Alabama, he bus emerged from ignorance and shift lessneas to a position of influence. This shows to the Southern mind what the negro is capable of doing \ and he has got to get busy or go to the wall as an economic factor. Mr. Stone, who is a young aud enthusiastic cotton planter of Miss issippi and a level-headed student' not only of Southern history but also of the present lalior conditions ol the South, says that the negro can hold his own .in competition with white immigrants if properly tiained and guided. His facts, however, show how intimate must be the nnion between moral aud economic salvation. "Unstable as water, thou shalt not excel," he quotes as the sum ming up of his observation of the negro race. If their economic con dition ia to be improved there must be first developed in them those qualities which command success among any people, but lacking which there is no promise for a bright industrious future. —Con- densed from The Outlook.

Every county cotton Association President is requested to call meet ing of the farmers at the court house of his county to be held on Saturday Feb. 3rd., at n o'clock. Every cotton grower, 'business and professional man aud all others interested in the general prosperity of North Carolina are cordially in vited to attend this meeting, which will be the most important vet held in the new year. Business and professional men are in liberal sym pathy with the tremendous cotton movement in the South, and they are desirous of co-operating with theiu to achieve the objects of* the Southern Cotton Association. We are working for their interest as well as for the welfare of the farm ers. If We prosper, they prosper also. Farmers are you familiar with the cotton situation? Do you re alize that we occupy ground which can be held only by oir exerting ourselves earnestly, honestly, pat riotically and unanimously; and that if you go backward, this movement, which is for your eman cipation from the treacherous mar kets controlled by gamblers and speculators, will be lost? Be careful what you do. Learn the conditions which affect this Juighty crop. Then do your duty If you plant more land in cotton i his yi iir than you did in 1905, you will sell your staple at a low price. Hut if you arc wise, and remaiu |.»yal to the Association, your cot toU will bring you a living price and al-o a profitable one. Farmers, this is your work and vour opportunity. It is to sup l>ort you and vour family; to pro vide you with the necessities and comforts of life, and to educate your children. It is for all the i irmers. The tanants and one 10r.se fanners are wanted and need lint he Association as much as the larger producers. The man behind the plow is the salvation of the.State, and the hope of the Southland. I shall endeavor to secure speak ers for every meeting on the 3rd of February aud these gentlemen »vill IK- thoroughly informed in re gard to the cotton situation. They will s(>eak facts, worth knowing and-remembering. The leading f irtners of your county will ad dress you.

Celebration of the Eighty-First Birthday of Prof. 5. W. Out tcrbrkJge. and Address of Hon. F. D. Winston. This was a day long to be re membered in the history ot Rober scuville. The people with one accord and with hearts full of love for the pure, immaculate lives of Prof, and Mrs. Outterbridge, with due appreciation for the invaluable services rendered by tbem during fifty years devoted to the proies siou of teaching, endeavored to give some outward expression of their love aud appreciation by*publicly celebrating the birthday of this good and noble man. They are both too modest and retiring to desire this public recog uition, but they yielded to the wishes of their iiiauy friend* and former students who desired to meet them on tltis occasion, and to acknowledge their debt of gratitude for the wholesome instruction and lofty example oi their old teachers. Their example of righteous living and devotion to duty tre worthy ol imitation for all peoples injill ages. Their lives are blameless before uian and we believe upright be fore God. Prof. Outterbridge's life dates back to the childhood of our na tion. Thomas lefferson, the au thor of the Declaration of Inde pettde ice, was still living at the time of his birth. The visit of La fayette to America took place that same year. Since that time twen ty-one Presidents have filled the executive chair at Washington. During hi:, long life be has lieheld the steady march ol the nation in its progress and development, from the time when there was no rail road, telegraph, cylinder printing press, or even a sewing machine, to our own day when science and invention have made it possible for us to span the broad Atlantic by wireless telej'rnnh. He has seen with even more in terest the development of the na tion and the State along education al lines. When he began his ser vice as teacher there were no public schools in the State, and no private schools of note. Not until he was twenty-seven years of age did North Carolina elect her first su perintendent of public instruction, Calvin H. Wiley. There were then no colleges as fountain-heads of education. Wake Forest, Da vidson and Trinity have all come into existence during his life. He has seen the establishment of all the State institutions save the Uni versity—the State NomytJ, the Agrictiltuial and Mechanical Col lege, the Institutions for the Deaf, Dumb and Blind, as well as the orphanages for the education of indigent children. In fact, every thing of note in education has been done since he began his career. While these great changes have taken place he retnaiued in the profession, modestly and unobtru sively doing his part. His influ ence has always been on the side of advancement in education, know ing, as he did, that it is the trained mind and sterliug character that make citizens and honorable histo ry for a State. The program for the day was as follows: Welcome Address—J, D. Ever ett. Response—Rev. M. T. Laur ence. Introduction of SjH-.tker—A. R Dunning. Address— Hon. F, I). Winston. Planting of tree in front of acad emy iu honor of Prof, and Mrs. OutterbriJge. After these exercises, a mast sumptuous dinner was seved to the immense crowd. Of course, the event of the day was the address of Judge Winston. !IU manner is charming, his eloquence sublime, his Jgetc clear and convincing His-Mvonls come from a warm heart and a thoughtful mind, hacked by a ster ling character. The )>eople of Robersonville recognise iu his burning eloquence the statesman, the orator, the geutlcman, the christian. With good will toward all and malice toward none, he stands four-square for civil right eousness, community power, and To Core a Cold in One Day hi Two Days. Tok« Laxative Bromo Quinine tm*.

After pay ing * moert loving tribute to Prof, and Mrs. Outerbridge, he dealt with these themes as only the able judge can do. The assembled crowd listened with bated breath to his masterful ad tress. We stand ready to pledge bim our support, for any honor for which he may aspire. The idea of this celebration was suggested by Mr. Justus Everett, of Palmpra, and others of his old .students who prefer to, "strew the flowers along the pathway of the living rather than reserve tliern for the graves of the dead " (The address of Prof. Outjer bridge and letters from firmer pupilk who were unable to be pres ent wpre crowded out but will ap peal 7 next week.)
