GOLDSBORO, N. C, August 15, 1907. PflESEM AND FUTURE. There is folly in the pessimistic idea or nrediction that business is on the decline, when it is shown that the railroads of this country are hauling more freight than they did a year ago;" that the people are buying more, and the mills and mines are producing more. Iu the United States the home de mand is enormous. Tins country pro duces 40 per cent ot the world's iron and 42 per cent of its steel, but this does not meet the bomedemand. There wit $740,000,000 of manufactures ex ported last fiscal year, of which iron mi'l .-teel furnished a considerable part, ').! nor withstanding the expansion in the n.tmt)er and the capacity of the iro iiiid steel works ot the country t.in.v ire unable to supply all the or ders which tLey recei ve, and foreign lumaces and mills aie being drawn upon, thus establishing a large import list of these goods. Not many y-ars ago the United K'-sU'S wns third or fourth in the list in -o.ii. i t and steel production, while iud.-y tire in tlie lead. The aggregate value of the agricul tural products of this country in 190(3 mi- y $7,000,000,000, which was li-:td ot any two countries in the world. 1 ee tacts and figures speak most wiciviraijiiialy for the future of our eii tire country, but especially for this Southland of ours for it is this SHction to which the eyes of the finan- eiai -iitaitutaiui ing ana consuming world are i);-in turned. Tbeieis only one tiling lacking to bring about an immediate consumma tion oft lie hjippy conditions hoped for and certain to come to the south and that is labor. The field is here, but the ialoi'rs are too few. The farms, the mills nd othe lai.or employing: enter prises are calling loudly for labor, and the only solution is the encourage ment of immigration. The call for "help" all along the line is loud and persisted. ENDORSES EXPOSITION. CLICKERS' STRIKE IGNITES ANOTHER Electricians of Chicago Join Telegraphers. Still Demanding Eight Hiurs as a Day's Service and Fifteen Per Cent. Wage Increase. I (By Special Wire to the Argus.) Chicago, Aug. 17 The Electricians here have joined in the telegraphers' strike, being ordered out this morning as the result of some complications and on account of general sympathy with the strikers. Other trades unions are today threatening to follow.

With this accomplished he says that their demand for 8 hours a day service and 15 per cent increase must be com plied with. FINE SPIRIT OF PROGRESS.

He has been in this State since the 17th of July, speaking once or twice every day at Farmers' Institutes in various parts of the State.

Lieutenant-Governor of Ala bama Denounces Fed eral Judge. But Gray is Not a Lawyer Neither Is He Conversant With the Sworn Duties of a JudgeHe is Simply a Pol itician. (Special to the Argus.) Montgomery, Aug. 16. Lieut.-Gov- ernor Henry Gray, who, in the absence of Governor Comer from the State, is "sitting on the lid" in the executive office in the capacity of Governor, to day gives out an interview in which he criticises' and scores Judge Jones, of the federal court, in severest language for issuing the restraining order re ported in these dispatches yesterday, and which enjoins State and County officials of Alabama from serving pen al processes on the L. & N. railway em ployees pending a settlement of the contested new rate law in that State. Acting Governor Gray among other things declares that no such drastic or outrageous order as that issued by Judge Jones ever emanted from the Bench even in reconstruction times, and that federal Judges are responsible to no one, neither God nor man, being appointed for life.and are indifferent to the popular will or public censure. Mr. Gray is not a lawyer nor con versant with tfie sworn duties of fed eral Judges, who are presumed to be, in the conscientious discharge of their duties, just what Lit. Gov. Gray, the politician, charges as a fault indiffer ent to the popular will or public cen sure. That is why, in thewisdom ot the constitution, they are appointed for life, that they may be responsible to no one for their official acts.
