chairman of the memorial committee
of the forty-seven local posts at the
regular monthly meeting of the New

Many persons have asked me re

Army was not included among the
organization in the splendid tribute
to Colonel Roosevelt. Now that the
incident is closed, I can sanswer.
The reason was that we were ig

the committee, although this was re
requested .

Representative J. Hampton Moore
of Pennsylvania, and president of the
Atlantic Deeper Waterways Associa
tion has been an . enthusiastic V ad vo-
cate of improving the rivers and har
bors of the United States ever since
he was a reporter on the Philadelphia
Public Ledger years ago. Since he
came, to Congress he has taken a com
manding position in the movement for
a comprehensive waterway policy on
the part of the government and the
formation of the Atlantic Deeper
Waterway Association is due largely
to his persistency and enthusiasm for
the construction of an inside pasage
from Boston to Beaufort. North Car
olina, and thence on tp the Florida
Keys using the canals, bays and the
ounds between Boston and Beaufort
thereby shortening the distance some
six hundred miles between the points
namsd and at the same time avoiding
the penis of Hatteras. At the last
session Of Congress Mr. Moore en
deavored 'to secure the authorization
for an initation to the International
Navigation Congress to meet in the
United States but failed in securing
such authorization. This session Mr
Moore has had better luck the Rivers
and Harbors bill carrying an appro
priation for $50,000 for this purpose.
Commenting on the provision the hust
ling member from the Philadelphia
district said:
"The coming to the United States
of the Permanent International As
sociation of Navigation Congresses
will mean much for waterway devel
opment in this country. It is well
known that we are far behind Euro
pean countries in inland waterway
development. The picked engineers
and experts of all nations attend these
conferences in the old countries and
this will be the first conference of
the kind to be held in the United
states. The significance of such a con
that up to 1907 the United States,
with its vast area, had spent only
about $550,000000 on all its waterways
and harbors, while France alone,
sines 18 had pent more than $700-
000,00.'
Mr. Moore expressed the earnest
hope that the next international con
ference held in this country would
devote itself amongst other things,
to a discussion of the limitation of
artificial harbor depths. He had just
been before the Committee on For
eign Affairg advocating a joint res
olution recently offered by him dir
ecting the Secretary of State to con
fer with the maritime nations of the
world as to the ddvisabilty of reach
ing an international agreement upon
this question.
"It is highly important," he7 said,
"that the nations should come to some
Tnderstandfcng as o the depth to
which they propose to dredge har
bors for the accommodation of a very
few big ships. New York alone on
the Atlantic cosat is prepared to re
ceive vessels of the Mauretania and
Lusitania type. Are we to continue
appropriating millions of dollars every
year to attain for other harbors the
artificial depth we are giving New
York, or are we to agree all along
the coast upon the concentration of
international trade and commerce at
one points What one port has another
will strive for, and an equal distri
bution of trade seem to be a fair prop
osition. This same problem confronts
British ports like Liverpool and South
ha"mpton. The latter has the advan
tage over Liverpool and any further
dredging, if the contruction of freak
veselg is to be involved, would operate
to put Liverpool out of business.
'But apart from the question of dis
tributing trade, is the vert import
ant one of the wasting of public
money. Every nation is affected, but
the United States by reaon of its'
area will undoubtedly be the largest
sufferer, because, if foreign ship
owners build vessel of extraodinary
draft, the various ports of the United
State must be deepened to accommo
date them whether they do or do not
appear at those ports.

REFLECTIONS OF A BACHELOR
A woman will hardly ever talk scan
dal unless she has a tongue.
A man can talk himself into be
lieving all the things he can't any
body else.
Nearly every girl would want to
elope if she could have a big church
wedding, too.
If a man goes out and mows the
lawn once a year he acts as if he did
if all the time.
No matter how little a man got out
of a college education, his son can
manage to get less. New York Press

THE LIMIT
(A Massachusetts Judge has sought
to enjoin a woman from talking
A judge can do a lot of things that
other people can't
Wh3n railroads want to lower rates
a judge can say: You shan't!
When the kindly philanthropic trusts
would batter prices down.
vThe judge, enshrined upon his bench
denies them with a frown,
But all the judges in the land have
not the power tp balk
The oldest earthly privilege a wo
man's right to talk.
Old Daniel was a mighty judge; ha
handed down a writ
Against a bunch of lions fierce, and
therefore was not bit, '
when Jeffreys sat upon the bench
his sentences were short,
Consisting of. "You hang my man!
No mercy in this court! '
But Daniel would have been devoured
and Jeffreys swiftly hung,
If either had attempted to enjoin a
woman's tongue.
So, Mr. Massachusetts Judge, remem
ber King Canute,
Who found that turning back the tide
was quite a vain pursuit;
Remember old Mahomet who discern
ed his chance was slim,
Of forcing any mountain to get up

But in this world there are some
things that simply can't be done.

A PUBLIC
BENEFIT
Elizabeth City People Greatly Inter
ested in the Generous Offer of
The Standard Drug Company.
The people have already demon
strated that they would rather trust
a man who is naturally honest than
one who is honest only because he
had ta be.
The Standard Drug Company have
a firmly established reputation for
square dealing and sterling honesty.
When they told the people that Rex-
all Remedies are the uprest and most
dependable medicines that it is pos
sible for modern science to produce
and that they would tell the public
what each one of these 300 or more
remedies contaBned, and that they
sold Rexall Remedies on their person
al guarantee that they would give
entire satisfaction or they would not
cost the user a single cent, they
were believed.
Ever since this announcement the
Standard Drug Company has been
largely patronized by people buying
Rexall Remedies, all of which proves
that htis sore has the confidence of
the people and that honesty is the
best policy .
There is no 'cure-all' among the
Rexall Remedies. There are different
and separate medicines, each one de
vised for a certain human ailment
or a class of ailments closel allied.
For instance Rexall Dyspepsia Tab
lets are recvommended for the posi
tive relief Of stomach .irritation, In
digestion, flatulency and dyspepsia.
They are rich in- Bimuth-Subnitrate,
Pepsin, and Carminativves. They are
prepared by special process which
perfect and enhance the great med
heriedial value of these well known med
icinal agents, This remedy sells for
25 cents,; 50 cents and $1.00 per pack
age. Every one suffering from stom
ach disorder should try Rexall Dys
ppsia Tablets, inasmuch as they cost
nothing if they do not satisfy.
Remember, The Standard Drug Co.
is the only store in Elizabeth City
where these remedies may be obtained
and every one in need of medicine is
urged to investigate and take advan
tage or tne rrank and generous man
ner in which they are sold.

ORIGIN OF HOBSON'3 CHOICE

origin in the eccentricities of one To

rier of Cambridge, who died in the
year 1830. In addition to his ordinary
business he kept a stable and let out
horses to the students at the univer

however, that each animal , should
have an equal period of worit and' rest
and would never let one out of its
