Our horizon was limited and narrow then. The broad commercial unity of ens, apples, peaches, turkey and; sau-to-day was unknown.

Now ' the1 OF PRESS ASSOCIATION great systems of the North are ours and the mighty steel highways be't the continent and hring ua all to gether. In the development of tne railroad interests, the South has foiyid the chief source of her greatness, and although it was considered, aforetime, disloyal and dangerous to say so, we wra debt of gratitude- t,o these vast corporations that we cannot measure. It is quite true the motives of the railroad magnates may not have been angelic, but we have reaped the bless ing nevertheless.

The Lon don Times grows in power and in fluence; through the passing years, but its chief place In the profeslson it so adorns has been achieved by ad hering throughout its history to the policy upon which it was bae3rVaen It -began its great career. The honesty, candor and Integri ty of tho press are the corner-stones upon which the structure depends. A cowardly, time-serving, truculent prrss Is as Impotent as it Is contemp tible. The newspapers of North Car olina, In the -majru are honest and courageous.' They hav always been so. We need. I think, to dwell much upon this theme at each recurring an nual meeting. Th business end of a newspaper Is an Important matter, and will receive this session Its due share of attention, but each man has his own methods and must adapt him self to his own locality, but we all must stand togAther upon the rock of honesty and courage, If we stand at all. AN HONORABLE CALLTNO. It Is not given to every m'nn to make his columns shine with the light of genius, bnt It Is given to every man who enters this honorable calling to he honent and true. Fidelity to the State and loyalty to her traditions and her history, and eternal faithfulness to truth in nil things, though our own opinions and preferences perish In Its light, are prenuisttes to editorial efllclene.y. Disagreeing on many things we must all agree In striving to be come exponents of whatsoever things are honest and pure and lovely and of good report. There is no scavenger quite so vile as the newspaper scav- l an..P There is another lesson In this new snd Is - " ,rS" day -we must harn . well. ina win is one oi ine developments i among those born o. woman.

This Is aa It should be. We have come Into a etter day. Th element of egoism In the newspaper business tended not toward strength ti-but weakness. It Is better to be than seem to be. - What I do develops and enriches me more than what I say, The editor who saves his life shall lose it. To the .conceited and bombastic who love the glare and glory of pop ular applause, this obscuration of the editor's personality Is intolerable, but to him who loves his worn more tnan he loves himself. It la the finest stimu lus to a perfect mastery of bis bust ness. It has come to pass that no man can wear the collar of the public service and the crown of Journalistic success one and the same time. The recent distressing embrogllo in Geor gia in which a newspaper man was pitted against a politician resulted as might have been expected the poli tician got the plum and the editor the black-eye Jhe sacrmce or am onion upon the alUr of service "may seem a hih nrice to pay, hut to reach the top every penny of It must he paid.

In order to mould the public policy and shape the pumic tnougnt ne must like the grain of wheat, he wll'ing to fall Into the ground and die. that his Dower mav be multiplied. I have said all this in order that I might pave the way for this recommends tlon: Do not run for the Legislature. A DEMOCRATIC ORGANIZATION, We have no more democratic organ ization In the State than the North Carolina Press Association. I hope this may always be true. We weekly brethren are as much a part and pax eel of this body aa our big brethren of the city dailies. Men of every shade of political opinion dwell to gether In perfect unity, and the ed itors of our religious journals who oc casionally give each other a nudge under the fifth rib sit side by side In these delightful reunions without a warring thoughtjlltting across their peaceful breaata. We are brethren In the real sense of that much abused term. We distribute the offices of honor evenlr around.- The only office Involving hard work and poor wages we pack off on Brother Sherrlll. and when he threatens 'to resign we add Ave dollars to his pay and fifty dol lars to his labor. Every member of the association standi a very excellent chance of winning the highest Office within our gift. I desire to acknowl edge here and now my grateful appre ciation of the confidence and esteem of my brethren in throwing me head long Into this, the highest and most honorable position I have ever held, the more gratefully accepted because wholly unsought. Owing to the popu larity of one of our distinguished members, who Is now the president of the National Editorial Association, the constitution was changed in order to allow him to hold a second term In succession, of the office of presi dent, which he administered with so great ability, I would recommend that since the end-f or which the change was made has been reached, that we return to the original plan of electing the president for one year, and that .he be not permitted to succeed him self. : The subject of education Is so close ly allied with the profession of jour nalism that I need hardly stop to urge our brethren to loyalty to our schools. ' We have had a. wonderful awakening In North Carolina on this great question. Charles B. Ay cock, the apostle of light, kindled In - the hearts of the people 'a deep longing for the uplift of the childhood or the State. The seed he sowed Is bearing a rich harvest. The log school house Is a rare thing now. and better teach ers during longer terms are teadlrtg the children Into the light. Every newspaper in North Carolina ought to be. and I believe really Is, the friend and defenVr -of education. We should t.-ir.(n -v.4 A every ; boy aftd girl " .n however poor and ragged to lift him over the rocks In his rugged way. It la no small part of our work to teach little feet to climb th steeps and gain the summit above' the clouds.

' Afternoon Session The particular event of te. afternoon will be tho automobile ride which will be given the visitors. The machines will gather in front of the First Presbvterian church at 4 o'clock and tickets will given the members of wives and daughters assigning them to the proper cars. The trip out will be by way of Mint street to the Dowd road and on to Dixie and Shopfbn. Crossing to the Pineville road,, the return trip to the city will be commenced. One of the county convict camps will be inspected near Steele Creek church and the visitors will be shown just how the macadam roads are being built. Specimens of road which have been in use 10 years and such as are of recent construction will be pointed out. Re turning to the city, the new auditorium in which the coming State convention is to be held will be visited and inspected. The" trip will cover approxi mately 25 miles. This evening at 7:45 o'clock the veterans' choir will sing at the Selwyn some of the old-time hymns. At 9 o'clock the informal smoker at the South ern Manufacturers' Club will be given. This will bring the convention to a close. , to say, our North Carolina newspapers have not gone into spasms. There is each year a bright and . glittering throng of brethren from the North, with pity In their hearts for the poor, who make their way through th South, halting for a brief period at Tuskeegee and giving Booker -Washington an approving smile; then, gath ering up their garments, sail back to New York City with consciences void of offence toward all men. These men mean well, but they do not un derstand the spirit or the traditions of the South. There Is a growing spirit of inde pendence among the newspapers of the State of which 1 am delighted to speak. I believe in parties. A news paper, like an Individual, ought ' to stand for something. But an editor can be true to his party without being its slave.. Newspapers must have self respect If It would command the re spect of others. -What a man believes In his heart he should speak through his columns. This matter will be dis cussed later on, but I desire to call at tention to the growing tendency to ward candor and sincerity in the edi torial expressions of the North Caro lina press. It is also pleasant to note the appar ently healthy financial condition of our newspapers. None of our num ber have gone into the hands of a receiver, nor have we eut off a single hour from our day's labor. It takes something worse than a Whit House panic to fling a North Carolina news paper man- fiinee the government has put us on a cash basis, whether or no. am Inclined to think the outlook more hopeful still. The new postal law was enacted to help rather tnan, hurt -the newspaper business and I think we shall all feel Its benefit and be convinced of Its wisdom before we meet again. The dead beau had abused th privilege accorded tho real newspapers, and - forced z the govern ment In self-defense to find a way to confine Its benefits to those for whom thef wer Intended. ' From time Immemorial the newspa pers have waged a relentless warfare upon the .trusts, and now we find our selves In the Iron grip of the most heartless of them all. There are sev eral of these giant combinations, but they are all one In method, purpose and aim. This monstrous paper trust flings deflnance at the President of the United States, snaps Its -fingers In the face of Congress and dares the world to do Its worst, - Mr. Herman Rldder, the president of the American Newspaper Union, In a lettej to the President, gives some very startling statements with- regard to the rapacity and wickedness of the gang of robbers who are holding up the newspaper fraternit) and growing fat on the earnings of honest men. No matter what house a publisher may approach for quotations, he Is told the same story- Prices ar pre determined and competition la des troyed. I quote a paragraph or two from Mr. Riddels luminous, letter which appears In the Kaster number of . the. NationaLPrlnter-Journalise "PUBLISHERS SUPPLY PREDE TERMINED." t Publishers who apply for quotations realise that in some Intangible way th source of their supply has been predetermined and that the price they are to pay has been prearranged for them. In each case the publisher finds that all bids but on ar at a prohibitory price. He also finds that he has no remedy sgalnat th supply In Inferior paper. Unity of action on the part of the manufacturers and uniformity of prices ar obvious. - - Publishers who make Inquiry of on mill discover that th others- have been advised of the Inquiry. A secret bureau of Information is at work. New selling agencies, representing aa aggregation of previously Independent mills have merged th output of those mills. - . - - Various mills have been shut down for various periods upon various pre texts. .- We allege and expect to h able to prove that some- of thes mills were shut down to starve th paper market and to . create . a paper fam In." - - - We would earnestly recommend the association and their" thaMhs North Carolina Press Asso ciation take this matter of resistance to this scheme of plunderers into se rious -consideration and formulate some plan by which w may unify and stimulate all our members to do their Utmost to destroy this monster whose shadow ia cast over, this whole coyn- In j my: judgment ther is nothing more practical or Important before the newspapers of th country to-day, for we ar face to face with a foe that will not parley. or compromise, but that demands the earnings of th fra ternity and will hear to nothing- less. Speaker Cannon has'decided to "In vestigate," and that proves the In justice and Iniquity of the methods of thla trust; but a united, determined, persistent and uncompromising effort on the part of art the newspapers oi th country will mean not an "inves tigation" but annihilation. Let us all f stand shoulder to shoulder In opposi tion to this, most onensive and Insati ate of all trusts. V - I trust we are entering upon what shall be a session of unusual profit and pleasure.
