Ii is to the credit of the hoard of aim miss loners of Harnett county that they made it pomMe for this county to reap the benefit* of the Mothers’ Aid bill, passed by the last Gcnctal Assembly. There are numerous deserving widowed moth ers in the ooomy. and the action of the ^ board will tend to lessen their Who Makaa Still.? Whaee do the blockade rs get their stills? No less than a dosen copper; StSh have haea captured in the four tlie past six months. While it is sn easy antler to rig up a still of the tin-tub variety, copper stills of the class that have beat captured of late arc not node by hand. Evi dently there is a Mil manufactur ing pant sotncwhcrc in these coasts. i Yet w» have oever beard of the cap ture of a still factory. That was indeed pitiful diwp fiointiueat for the thousands of jieo ple who journeyed across the ocean with the hope of being admitted to ’’ the promised hnd *' and then were fumed away. Many of the numht-r spent the savings of a lifetime on the chance of being admitted and then met with the bitter experience of being too late. Pram 42 coun tries they came eleven thousand strong with the view of finding re lief in this, the most favored of the nations, from the hardships of their homelands. To die thousands who found that the apiota of their own country had been filled, it meant UaMcf and shattered hopes. .

That ia a true state ment, and we believe that Dusin is numbered among tbe towns that have depended too much on outside capital. A survey of the best io industrial towns in the State will show that their industries were built largely by home capital. Trite McLeans home town of Lumber ton. for instance. The town i» no richer than Dunn, and yet the five Urge cotton manufacturing plants there are owned exclusively by peo ple living in and around the town. . Very lew town* succeed in in ducing outside capital, and we be lieve that it i* best for a town that its industries be owned and operat ed by the home folks. If the indus trial plants are owned by outride capital, then the local people have no Kami or say in their operation. Every business man in Duim will tell you that he favors more indus trial plants, which mean a larger Cy roll. Yet very few want them d enough to help fire me* their erection. But let some outrider come along with a stock-selling scheme and many there be who are ready to take a good-sized “ chunk." (By Wade H. Lucas.) Duke, July 9.— Excitement ran u fever heat here for shout an hour Sunday night, when a strange mad dog made its apiiearanoe, causing a reign of terror wherever it went.
