"White hopes" arc not of quite so much imp rtanre since Jack John son has adopted England. If reports' are true there is liable to be an explosion "from the InsYc" in .Maine on September 11th. There are any numoer ttf people who.axe.jiii'ig J-i relieve. John .p. of the wealth be finds so burdensome. It seems well igh iai possible to "keep the record straight" In the matter of the last legislature and the trusts. The British "suffer yets" have ttf-en very quiet of late; waiting for J. ha Bull s other troubles to be set' tlel, perhaps. There are some people wicked enough to think that Mr. Bryan has lead or talked himself out of the democratic party. If the republicans were conduct ing these congressional investiga tions, wouldn't they be a boost to the wbitcmnu market? An Ohio man is said to have killed Llmself rather than lake a bath.

White's statement that be relieves all the democratic rot for Lorimtr were bought la about the easiest par: of his tetimony to believe. AS JUSTICE TO Dl'BHAX There has been sent broadcast over the state a statement prepared by the commissioner of labor and printing giving the statistics of manufacturing in North Carolina that does Durham a grave Injustice. The census returns of the United States government show that Durham leads all other cities In the state In amount of capi tal invested In manufacturing by sev eral million dollars, and in value of products more than this'amount The statement of the commissioner, which has been hailed with loud trumpet i blasts, gives some other cities credit for being In the lead In manufactur ing. For some reason, Durham Is not mentioned simply ignored altogether. Only the closest scrutiny reveals the fact that the statement Is based ou "the census returnee of 1909, based upon the calculations of 1904." As if anyone cared what conditions were In 1904. This statement to the ordinary reader represents the present day con ditions. That such a misleading and inaccurate statement should be sen: out by the commissioner, when accu rate and recent statistics on the sub ject) are available is not in keeping with the manner in which this import ant branch of the state government has been conducted heretofore. that the people may ' know v.hat agreements are being entered into, j This Is well. It is the mass of the! people who determine whether war J shall or shall not cease to xlst, r.nd j a peace treaty that did not hav9 be hind ft the sentiment of the majority of. the people of the whole nation would not be worth the paper upon which it is written. 32S AT- MAT.

For years this matchless genius of the twentieth century, this human dynamo and storage battery combined has been working sixteen, twenty-four hours every day.

The treaties signed provide that L, a ,rader.

Had some one dared predict a decade ago that the world-wide peace propaganda would have achieved such tangible results within so short a time, the pre diction would have brought only cynical sneers. The signing of ibe treaties It an event so far reaching in Its affects, such an Immense and unexpected step forward that the prosaic public of today scarcely real izes what a turning point In all his tory it is witnessing. The establlsh- many refused to believe as he did and were not afraid to say so. Recently the pet hobby of Mr. Bryan "has been attacked by Leader Underwood, and the stfnging rebuke that this true advocate of democracy gave to the once famous Bryan was almost a knock-out blow. Further more Mr. UntKrwood received the un divided approval of his colleagues in his answer to the unjust criticisms. Even the staunchest friend of Mr. Bry.in are surprised that be should make an assertion that Leader Under- motit r.f rerlr.roral relations with - - - - t I - J . r - n i i Canada as an accomplishment of w" ip" t.ar. anu President Taft links into Insigni- that the finaiicl.il Interests of the able ask for a new schedule on iron ami steeL This attack upon democracy means the end of the political prestige of Mr. Bryan, and like many others he will be remembered in future years as one who labored for bis own advancement at the expense of the party, who for years kept him afloat ficance beside the establishment of : Alabaman were such that be would not peace relations with two of the most powerful nations of the world. There has been considerable mur muring here and there against the provision which Includes so-called insults to national honor" in the treaty. Among ttftse to pretest against this provision has been the fire eating contributing editor of the Outlook. Looked at from a common sense view point there are no "In sults to national honor, no more than there are "ahairs of honor1 between individuals. There was a time when, even in North Carolina, trifling Insults to personal honor were matters for deadly pistol duels. )Ve do not have duels now because we realise that duels are fooilah relic of barbarism.
