A few nights ago, whan the train from Wilmington rolled in and the passengers were alighting at the station, while the in rters of the leading ho tels of the town were making the usual scramble for baggage, a well known travelling man, on I'omintr out of a car, was heard 0 . I to say, "This is the best town in North Carolina." Well said. We do not claim to have the very best town in the whole State, but we do claim that no town in North Carolina has made greater strides in progress during the past few years than Lumber ton. With our excellent paved streets, the recent extension of our water works system, our handsome new graded school building which was erected at a cost of about $35,000 and which would do credit to a town five times the size of this together with the magnificent new coAift which is being erect ed by tiie county, to say noth ing of the many handsome dwellings which have been erected recently, it would seem that our town is steadily going forward, notwithstanding the supposed "panic." Here's hopingthat the newly elected town council will have the hearty co-operation and support of every good citizen in the welfare and upbuilding of Lumberton. , 1. j .1 when vou lelt that it was ntv " ; . ,.

This Mr. Cook has denied and he says that hedoes no tk now h o w the report originated. We are in receipt of letter from him in which he says that he will not be a candidate this year, though he confesses to an am bition to represent the district in Congress and intimates that he may be a candidate two years here. And Hon. lohn G. Shaw, who announced some time ago that he would be a candidate, announced Friday in a letter to the editor of The Fayetteville Observer that he would not allow hia name to go before the convention this year for the nomination. We trust that no opposition to Mr. God win's renomination will devel op. So far as we are able to j udge, he has served his district s well as any man could in a short first term of two years. As The Lexington Dispatchob serves, in commenting upon the report that Mr. Godwin would have strong opposition: "That's what's the matter with the South. We change Con gressmen so often that we get nothing. We do not allow them to stay in Congress long enough to get acquainted, and ot course they have no influence." Of course it is anybody's piivi lege to enter the race that wants t , but we fail to see that there would be any wisdom in mak ing a change, and we hope and believe that Mr. Godwin will be returned without opposition.
