The city of Durham, through Its
mayor and a number of other repre
sentative cltlsens, has been the boat
a
of the big officials- 6f the Southern
road today. While in Chase City yes
terday Mayor Grlswold persuaded
PreeJdeut.FJnley and bla official fam
ily to pay this city a visit, and lncl-
dentally mentioned that Mr. A) cock
was going to make a speech here.
The railroad man expressed a desire
to bear the former Governor and Mr.
II A. Fouabee was at once wired to
reserve aeats tor the officials.
Those here this morning were Pres
ident W. W. Finley, Drat vice-presi
dent. Colonel A. B, Andrews, general
passenger agent, 8. H. Hard wick, gen
eral superintendent, T. E. Hutcbins,
general freight agent, J. H. Drake and
district passenger agent 8. E. Bur
gess. The mayor and his helpers took
the men over the cltyln four aUto-
mobllea. They visited the various in
stitutions and manufacturing plauta
In the city and expressed themselves
as not only veru much pleased with
the cordiality .shown them, but alao,
expressed surprise at the mammoth
proportions of Durham, which was
much greater than they had been look
ing for. They found out what a big
town Durham really is.
The machines met at the postoffice
and went to the Christian lumber
yard, where the Fluley car had been
placed and took the officials In the
machines. From there they went down
Main street to Dillard and followed
this street to Holloway. Taking Hoi
loway street they were carried to the
new ball park In East Durham. They
then came back up Main street to
Corcoran and went to the Dull fac
tory, thence up Carr street to More-
head avenue, here they were given a
look at some of the line streets of the
city and beautiful residences on More
head bill., Going up Vlckers avenue
the party went to the Trinity College
campus and th nee to the new Watts
hospital. Then the party was taken
to the new Krwln mill, which is, in
many respects, one of wonderr of
modern cotton mill structures In the
south, and ranks with any In the
county. Leaving here the officials
were brought back to the special car.
All of the omclala, especially Col
onel Andrews, were delighted with
the city. They found out many
things that they did not know before
and went aay with a better feeling
for the city and a more complete
knowledge of the situation, here,
hlrh cannot but be belprnl to Dur
ham In Its future relations to the
road. They hsd their eye opened
ss to the real bigness of the tobacco
storages and manufart urles, the
rnssnlfl' slice of Trinity college, and
(he many beautiful residences.
The railroad party left on a spe

BASKET BALL POPULAR
XAXAGEB WAKE FOREST TEAM
, SUGGESTS OF LEAGUE.
Wake Forest, Sept 21. For the
past few years iuterest In the popu
lar game of basket ball has been in
creasing among tbe colleges fit the'
state. The game as playd under the
late rules is worthy of a place in col
lege athletics and la rapidly, coming
to be looked upon with as much favor
aa the games of foot ball and baseball.
The basket ball season, coming as It
does, when the Interest in athletic is
apt to lug serves a two-fold purpose.
It kseps alive that healthy college
spirit which Is only engendered In an
athlolic atmosphere and ft also furn
ishes a channel through which the en
thusiasm of tbe college atudent may
be expanded.
Basket ball played on the gymna
sium floor and at a time when no
other form of athletics ran be Indulg
ed In besides being of value as sport
also comes In for its share of financial
returns. As the number of men re
quired on a team Is comparatively
small the consequent expenses are
small and the returns large.'
Now the thing we are after, is this:
Heretofore we have, had games at
random with various colleges of the
state, excepting A. M., which ha
had a team only one year" and the
university, which has had no team
at all. A good inter, has been shown
In every game that has been played
and as college men see more of tbe
game the Interest grows But to have
the greatest Interest shown In any
sport there must be the spirit of
friendly rivalry. To promote this
spirit of rivalry and consequent Inter
est snd enthusiasm one would like to
see a North Carolina basket ball lea
gue formed. Trinity, Davidson and
Wake Forest have had teams for
yeare. A. 4b M. with Crowd! of Char
lotte to coach and play, will Without
a doubt, put out a strong team: The
university then la the only Institution
in the state not having a basket ball
team, But we understand they have
some good material and will put out
a creditable ream, this season. With
all the collegmi of the state In such a
league as Is proposed, basket ball will
at once be an equal lt Interest
aa it already Is In merit, with the other
branches of college athletics. To get
such a league the co-operation of all
the colleges In the state will he re
quired. We see no reason, however,
why by the time the season opens the
league may not be formed. We want
the University, Trinity, and the other
collegi a of the state to express their
opinion concerning this proposed lea
gue either through the newspaper or
by corrcupnwb'tiee with us.
11. M. BAUM,
Mnneer Wake Forest (Allege Basket
Bull Team,
the best and cheapest administration
of Justice in the country. Now if
this be true will you stop and ask,
'Why should we turn the state over
to the republicans?' I do .see one
change needed and 1 not only predict
this change 'will' be made, but I as
sert this cbapge will be made, and
tnal is a change in the national gov
ernment. (Applause.)
Wnen I Was running for governor
I told you that If you elected me we
would eliminate the negro froni poli
tics, and that thla would not only
awaken the childhood; but also the
manhood of the state.' We opened
schools, cared for the blind, the deaf,
the old soldiers and the insane, and
established peace and harmony in
the state. We spent three times as
much money for these things as we
bad been spending, and after spend
ing it, we had three times as much
left in the bank. (Applause.)
'Jt always Is thla way, for If we
take care of the weak in our midst,
we will be sure to prosper. ' It is
God's way and we must look out for
the afflicted ones. And the history
of the democratic party teaches us
that it Is the duty of a strong people
to bear the burden of the weak.
What Is a Democrat?"
'This question has been asked
mockingly, it has been asked jeer-
ingly, and tbe republicans think they
have had a lot of fun out of It. I
will tell you what a democrat Is. A
democrat is a man that believes that
the power of the national govern
ment is confined to the constitution,
and that power which is not given
to the national government is ettll
in the hands ot the people of the
different states. He is a man' that
believes that tbe government should
be kept as near the people as possi
ble, for he knows that, when the
power gets away off yonder, and

Godwin Confident of
A Large Majority
Ilalelgh, Sept. SI. Hon. II. L.
Godwin, of Dnnn. whose official ma
jorltifs In the recent demorraUc prl
ntnry for congress In the sixth dis
trict was 4,50, was In the city yes
terday.
-Mr. Godwin Is In excellent spirits
over the prospects for a democratic
victory in the sixth district. "We
will carry it by a big majority," he
said. "Thj people are aroused
against the Iniquities ot tbe repuo
Ikan party and they are going to
show this at the polls. The state
may feel assured that the sixth di
trlct will do Its full part In a great
iUctory for democracy In November
things go wrong, he will not be able
to look after It so well as if it were
nearer the people. A democrat Is a
man that believes that every man,
whether rich or poor, small or great,
weak or stronv has. the God-given
riant to work out' his own destiny."
The applause that followed this defi
nition of a democrat Indicated that
the audience believed this a good
answer to tbe question that haa been
popping. up over the state..' .
- - What Is a Republican?
"'Ah! that is the question. What
is a republican?.: I don't know, do
You? I Laughter.) Ta ft says that
North Carolina republicans are ''little
except factional fighters after federal
offices.' ( I never said halt so mean
a thing about them in my life. And
I never will, for some of them. are
my neighbors, and Mr. Taft'a saying
it saves me the trouble: But you
can't deny that Taft told the truth,
for when ' the . republicans met in
Greensboro, they passed ' resolutions
endorsing his administration. But
if you want' a broader, definition
of what a " republican is, . ask

Both may be true.

L. Lindsay, who spent yesterday in
Chase City In conference with the big
officers of the Southern road, return
ed to the . city last evening bringing
with them news of a much Improved
service and also several of the of
ficials came along to see what a big
place Durham really Is. , ;
The schedule promised by the rail
road . men waa far beyond the re
quests arid hopes ef the representa
tives of the different cities that had
representatives at the conference. A
through train schedule from this city
to Richmond twice a day waa prom
ised and will lie put into operation
as soon as all. arrangements can be
made. :
The first train is to leave Durham
in the morning at 6 o'clock and will
reach Richmond at 12:55 in the af
ternoon. : Returning the train will
leave Richmond at 3 p. m, arriving In
thla city at :50 at night.
The second train will leave Dur
ham at 2:05 In the afternoon and
reach tbe Virginia city at 8:05 In the
evening. Returning this train will
leave Richmond in the morning' at
:10 and la scheduled to get to Dur
ham at 12:40. This train Is to run
through to Raleigh and will carry a
sleeper.. ;
: A fenvenlent Schedule.
Although this ia not just the ar
rangements that the Durham mer
chants have been working for, it will
LpracUcally fill the bill. In that it will
make day visits on the part of peo
ple down the line possible. A person
liviub teween . here and Richmond
will be able to come Into Durham on
the 12:40 train, if necessary, can get
out on the 2:05 train. Or they may
remain here over night and get back
home on the train leaving here at
o'clock In the morning.
The schedule will enable Durham-!
ltes and traveling men to leave here
itber at 6 In the morning or at 2:05
in the afternoon and visit Oxford,
Keysville, Chase City or any of the
places on the line and get back to
the city on the night train, which I
reaches here at 9:50. On the whole
the' Durham people can have no .kick
on the deal that the railroads give
them.
Good Connections.
Another Important thing about tbe
new schedule is the good conectlons
that may be made In Richmond for
the northern markets. A man will
be able to do a good day's work in
Durham, and catch the 2 o'clock
train out In the afternoon and get
into New York city the following
morning at 8 o'clock.
It will be especially convenient to
tbe tobacco growers and dealers, as
they can get here the night before
and attend 'the sales and get home
that afternoon. The majority do not
mind spending the night here before
