Commissioners in Regular Ses sion Monday and Many Claims Audited Petition for Special Term of Court Special Tax Elections Ordered Floods Ne cessitate Outlays for Bridge Repairs To Meet Again Mon day. The county commissioners met in regular session Monday and transacted much business. The damage to bridges through out the county wrought by the recent floods made extra busi ness. On account of the fact that in the arrangement of Superior Courts for Robeson county by the Legislature of 1907 the September term was omitted, no provision being made for a civil term ot court irom June until December, and there being such an accumulation of cases as to make a special term necessary, it was ordered by the board that Governor Glenn be requested to call a special term of Robeson Superior court for the trial of civil cases for one week, beginning October 5. The commissioners will be in session again next .Monday, the 14th. The following claims were passed: Jail and Prisoners F. J. Adams, conveying Arthur Leak to jail, $5; conveying Jno.

Nash, clerk to the board, was ordered to turn over to Sheriff E. C. McNeill the tax books for the year 1908 with the order endorsed thereon, as prescribed by law, for the collec tion ot the taxes therein enum erated. For reasons appearing good and sufficient to the board the tax bonds of Sheriff E. C. Mc Neill, given with the American Bonding Co. of Baltimore as surety, were reduced as follows : Road bond, from $25,000 to $15 000;bond forpoor, school and spec ial taxes from $45,000 to $30,000; bond for State taxes, from $20, 000 to $10,000. It appearing to the board that the Sikes-Currie Co., by error in listing for taxes of 1907, paid overcharges on $15,000 valuation f property in Red Springs town ship, it was ordered that the amount of taxes over paid be re funded to this company and that the said refund be paid by the various funds due the same as follows: State, $37.50; county fund, $30; bond sinking fund, $7.50; road fund, $30; general road fund, $27. The clerk of the board was ordered to issue orders for amounts due by county and sinking funds and to certify to the proper authorities the amounts to be allowed by the other funds. A petition endorsed by the board of education for a special tax election for school district No. 5, Blue Springs township, was presented to the board and an election was ordered for the 17th of October. The petition provides for a tax of not more than 15 cents on the $100 valua tion ot property and 4b cents on the poll. A new registration is ordered for said election and J H. McKenzie was appointed registrar, John Deese and Hiram Hall, judges. On a similar peti tion an election was ordered for the same day, October 17, for district No. 3, White House town ship, for a special school tax of not more than 30 cents on the $100 and 90 cents on the poll. N. J. Page was appointed registrar, A. D. Rowland and J. H. Bass, judges. DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN MANUAL. DRAINAGE AND ROADS. GOOD Important Meeting to be Held in Lumberton Next Monday There is no question of greater importance to the people of Robe son than drainage of swamp lands and good roads. Those who have studied the matter at all agree that the only solution of the road problem in this coun ty is proper drainage, and proper drainage means also the reclama tion of much land that is now overflowed. This all-important subject will be discussed bv experts at a meeting which will be held in Lumberton next Monday, and it is to be hoped that as many citizens as can dp so will attend. This meeting has been provided for by Congress man H. L. Godwin, who has se cured experts from Washinghton on drainage and good roads to accompany him on a brief tour of this district. Congressman Cod win is sending out the following letter announcing this meeting: There will be a meeting oi the citizens of Robeson county, who are interested in the drain- n 1111 age ol swamp lands and gooa roads, at Lumberton, on the 14th inst. at 11 o'clock a. m. The Ag ricultural Department at Wash ington has agreed to send two experts, one on swamp drainage and one on good roads, to address this meeting. I trust that you will attend, and notily your neighbors and friends of the meeting and request them to at tend, as subjects of vital impor tance to the farmers will be dis cussed. The farmers are the back bone and the mainstay of the country, and less has been done for them by the government than has been done tor any other class. This is an evil that I de sire to correct, but it cannot be corrected until the farmers of the country become aroused and show a strong public interest in their own behalf. bwamp drainage and good roads are public questions that lie at the very doors of the people, and are at present agitating the minds of the citizens to a great extent, and I sincerely hope that the farmers and business men ot Robeson county Will forego their private duties on Monday, the 14th of September, to come out to Lumberton to assist in study ing these public questions. Yours very truly, H. L. Godwin. President Roosevelt in his fin al annual message to Congress probably will recommend an in crease in the numerical strength of the army to at least 100,000 men. At present the army is on a footing of 60,000 men, the num ber provided for in time of peace. How to Get Strong. P. J. Daly, of 1247 W. Congress -t., Chicago, tells of a way to be come strong: He says: 'My moth er, who iB old and was very feeble, is deriving so much benefit from Electric I ltters, that 1 teel it s my duty to fell those who need atonic and strengt hening medicine aDout it In my mother'B case a marked gain in fl. sh has resulted, insom nia has been overcome, and she is steadily growing stronger."

Mr. John White, of 38 Highland Ave., Houlton, Maine, Bays:- "Have been troubled with a cough every winter and spring. Last winter I tried many advertised remedies, but the cough continued until 1 bought a 50c. bottle of Dr King'B New Discovery ; before that was halt gone, the cough was all gone. This winter the same happy result has followed ; a few doses once more banished the annual oouuh. I am now convinced that Dr. King's New discovery is the b st of all cough and lung reme dies.'

Chicago Dispatch, 6th. The campaign text-book of the Democratic party, prepared with the approval of the national com mittee, will be distributed to morrow morning to party work ers and others interested in ar guments why the Democratic nominees should be elected. It contains 300 pages in a bright red cover and is replete with comment and argument on the various issues of the campaign. The platforms of the Democratic and Republican parties arranged in parallel columns, occupy much space in the manual, which also contains crisp utterances of both Democratic and Republican lead ers. Some of the chapter headings of the volume are: "Pointers on the Republican National Plat form," "Figs and Thistles," "A Discredited Slogan," "The Struggle With Monopoly," and "Lest We Forget." W.J. Bryan's speech of acceptance, his tariff and his speech on guaranteed deposits occupy a prominent place in the book, which closes with a detailed index of contents. Under the head, "In a Nut shell, tne book discusses va rious subjects treated in the platforms of the parties. The question is asked: bnall we tax large incomes in America as is done by the progressive re publics of Switzerland and France, also in Germany and England?" and the answer is printed: "The Democratic plat form says yes; the Republican platform is silent. The same reply is given to the question: "Shall we elect United States Senators by a direct vote, thus making it difficult, if not impossible for millionaires to control the nation through the upper house?" Following these are questions whether a reasonable sum shall be paid by banks to create a guarantee fund to protect de positors; whether campaign contributions shall be made pub lic, and whether we shall do away with "billion-dcllar ses sions of Congress and a vast array of office-holders dictating presidential nominations, ' ' to all ot which the same reply is r-ade "The Democratic plat- ii .-TTi sn'rs yes; the Republican platform is silent." . In the chapter on Pointers on the Republican National Plat orm is the following. lhe .Republican plattorm as written is indubitable proof that the Republican party does not expect to give the country any real reiorms. lhe plattorm in fact is a contract, signed and sealed, between the Republican party and the exploiting interests, guaranteeing that nothing shall be done to free the people trom graft and extortion ; it is an ad mission that the money to carry on the campaign is to be drawn from the system, and that means that the 'system' is run on business principles and when it puts up its money to carry an election, it is sure to be quite careful about the security tak en." A resume of the currency law passed by the last Congress is given, with comment m part as follows: Here is a bill designed to prevent panics like that which swept over the land last fall, and nowhere m the bill do you hnd the slightest mention of the cause of that and of all other panics the distrust of the bank depositors. If the situation were not so serious, this bill would be the most colossal joke of the century. The bill neither gives the elastic currency ot the Canadian plan not the direct government action of the Demo cratic plan. The machinery for issuing the emergency is roundabout that half a dozen panics could be under way before the circulating medium could get out. The government is asked to go into parnership with the banks, even farther into partner ship than now. When the United States government lends its name to an enterprise, the east it can do is insist that every one dealing with that enterprise get fair play. It the govern ment is to co-operate in the banking business, then the gov ernment must secure the bank depositors. If this is not done then the government should withdraw altogether and meddle no more with banks than with groceries." On imperialism the manual savs: "The Democratic party has a plan, the Republican party has no plan that it dares reveal. The Democratic party" deals frankly with the subject, the Republican party is neither candid with the American people nor with the Fillipinos. The brevity and am biguity of the Republican plat form indicates a desire on the part of the Republican leaders to avoid the subject as far as pos-j sible. Secretary Taft takes the liberty of amending his platform on this subject, as he does on several others, by introducing matters whichcannot be found in the platform, or by any reason able construction adduced from it. The Republican platform says nothing about independence, while Secretary Taft holds out the hope of independence, for to say that it is unlikely that the people will be ready for inde pendence before two generations must mean that they will after that time be ready and ought to have it. In his attempt to de fend the holding of the Philip pine Islands he has laid himself open to just criticism by conceal ing the cost of imperialism. The Democratic platform presents the only solution consistent with our traditions and our ideals. It is to declare the nation's intention at once; this the Republican par ty has never done. When the Fihppinos know that they are to have independence as soon as a stable government is establish J .A 1 Ml . . eu, xney win join us in the more heartily hastening the day of independence, and that indepen dence will be easily preserved because the great nations of the world will be willing enough to join in the naturalization of the islands." WASH McQUEEN. is Prof Edens Submits Further Re marks About the use of Capi tals and Further Comment Subjoined. To the Editor of The Robesonian: The editor of The Robesonian does not think the rules submitt ed by me will square with the best newspaper usage, reihaps not. But will they square with the rules laid down by the best grammarians? It is the usage ot the most accurate writers and i ii. peakers reduced to a science which is the standard cuide rammars, and not newspapers, are the most accurate exponents ot this science. Scolarly editors to say nothing of differently qualified correspondents, writing in haste often depart from ac cepted authority. I do not think the editor would have us accept newspapers as more correct ttand ards than grammars. The edi tor of The Robesonian asserts what Hill's general rule admits, that "no hard and fast rule can be laid down for the use of capi tal letters" except where usage is uniform. When grammarians agree as touching a rule or cus- tim, newspaper license cannot set it aside. Such agreement among authors makes it a hard and fast rule for us. The editor says, "Cer tainly good usage does not de mand capitals in the lollowmg: The Governor of the State will sneak in the County near Lum ber River, by invitation of the Sheriff.' " In the above, com mon names become substitutes for special or proper nouns; as, Governor for Glenn; State, for North Carolina: County, for Rob eson; Sheriff for McNeill;" The capital 'xi. in Lumber River is correctly used, or if not The Robesonian contradicts Swinton, Hill, Coppie, Maxwell, Lockwood and others. Dr. W. Smith says, when a written reference is made to the river flowing by your town, or the town in which you live, it writing frpm that town, write the "River." ' The tendency is to use fewer capitals and commas, Hemp- a composite language, the English presents many difficulties. Now, boys and girls, readers of The Robesonian, preserve the paoer of August 20th and with the aid of your teachers criticise the editor and me. It will fur nish good exercise on subjects se lected because of their difficul ties, and because of very irregu lar usage. H. L. Edens. Pemboke, N. C. The above communication has been on hand for some time but we have been crowded with other matter; and, too, we want ed to find time for brief com ment. Here's hoping that Prof. Edens will not, because the edi tor takes this time-honored priv ilege of subjoining comment, ac cuse him of being "unfair," as some less discerning ones have accused him of being for taking the same privilege m another connection. But we are sure he will not. In hastily commenting on Prof. Edens'former communication we perhaps did not make ourselves clear. In every issue of The Robesonian we violate the rules laid down by Prof. Edens, and our remarks were merely intend- A Word of Praise for a Trusted and Beloved Servant. Dear Robesonian: I have been informed that Wash McQueen, a trusted snH beloved servant of a f amil v whosp name he has worthily worn, is now seeking at the hands of Robesonians some humble posi tion that would make a o-lnrl ight for his eventide. I am not a woman-suffragist, I belong to none ot the advanced schools. "neither do I exercise myself in great matters or in things too high for me"; and yet if I could transport myself to the dear old native heath with a legalized ballot in my hand, it would be a pleasure unspeakable to cast it for Wash McQueen. It is a "far cry" from the old times of Floral College to the present day in Washington City, but my mother, Maria McQueen, was to the manor born" and the family of negroes to which 7 l 1 X 1 wasn ueiongs i remember as being for fidelity, intelligence, morals and manners, the most remarkable one I ever saw. lhere may be none living who ever saw Col. James McQueen. of Queensdale, as he died before n was an oio man, and 1 grieve to know that few of his own descendants are familiar with the history of his splendid life and yet in his day "one blast upon his bugle horn was worth a thousand men. The gray-hair'd sires who know the past 10 a tranters point me Migniancl-cast, And moralize on the decav Of Scottish strength in modern day" Every instinct of a native hiirh lander was a natural Knight- errant seeking as oiten wrongs to redress as to redress wrongs J T - s i ii anu james mcuueen landed on this side of "the sounding sea with deeply rooted prejudices against the institution of slavery, When inexorable conditions com peneu nis surrender to the in evitable, he formulated by way of expiation, forsooth, a system of ownership so uplifting and beneficent that every bond-servant felt him or her-self to be as actual an integrant part of the family and home as any son or daughter whom they served. I never read in the Book of Ruth the salutation of Boaz to his reapers without being reminded of the spirit that prevailed on the old farm at Queensdale be tween master and slave. "And Boaz said unto the reapers, The Lord be with you. And they answered him, The Lord bless thee." Ruth 2:4. i rememper to nave heard mv PROFESSIONAL CARDS WadeWishart, E. M. Britt.
