Uncommonly disgusting suits it bet' ter. It has commanded entirely too much front-page display in daily newspapers. - , o ; The filibuster in the: United SUtes Senate last week wherewith the Democrats., rendered of none., effect he attempt of the Republicans to pus the anti-lynching bill fwHl take place as one of the most notable is Senate history", state a Washing, van dispatch, and "it involved no long speeches." Ergo, one of he most painless. . o In a news item in aa issued of the reensboro News last week it was stated that Rev. Dr. Oscar Haywood, a former North Carolinian, lecturer for the Ku Klux Klan and general evangelist of Calvary Baptist church f New York, charged that Judge Henry A. Grady, recently elected to the Superior court bench, was "the .head klan official in North Carolina." Judge Grady has not denied the charge, so far as appears from the papers. Let us hope that the judge will not be like the captain who ran puffing and blowing after his com pany and said, "I am their leader- and I must .follow them." The old adage to the effect that money can buy everything except health has been largely exploded. By investing in tuberculosis Christmas seals you can help to stamp out tuberculosis. Money so invested, is used to stamp out a disease from which' 2,500. people in North Carolina are doomed to die within the next twelve months unless they have help. All these people need medical care, good food, fresh air, and a knowledge of how to care for themselves. All the services needed sanatorium care, medical and material relief in the homes, experts, to diagnose the dis ease, and educational work cost a -little money, but the lives of 2,500 doomed people and the health of un known thousands of others 'are worth it. The 1922 seal sale began Thanks giving day and extends - through Christmas. SALARY FOR SOLICITORS The Statesville Landmark,' -noting The Robesonian8 mention of .Solicitor S. B. McLean's three fat days at the last term of Robeson Superior court, when he pulled, down a little over t$l,100, does some figuring. It notes that twenty-seven weeks- of --criminal court are scheduled for , the ninth judicial district this year and figures a follows. "This would amount to 162 days, provided full-week terms are held. Should Solicitor McLean jkeev up his earnings for the full year, which he will not do, on the same basis as for the three days at Lumberton, his earn ings would aggregate around $60,750 for the year. If he received each week an amount equal to the amount re ceived for one of vthe three days his ; earnings would be more than $10,000 for the 27 weeks, which is much more than the average lawyer earns in a year This is not saying they do not have a right to make all they can honestly, but since the taxpayers pay the , bill they will naturally be con- ' cerned about making the best ar rangement they can for the money and efficient service. At least half of a solicitor's time during the year is left for private practice." Of course those were exceptional days that The Robesonian mentioned. Court lasted only three days, but more cases were disposed of; than are put through the mill duringAiany a full week. But. while this was an exceptional ease, mentioned as such, the fact remains that there is a too generous nod an iUy-devised system (Continued from Pare 1) ever, people were forced to leave their homes without-being able to remove anything.,--,-' J Crackling fiercely in their Intensity and roaring their message of. destrucl tion so as to (make it heard in every section of - the. city," the flames rose high in the skf, sending forth a cloud of dense smoke which hung over the town throughdut the entire day. With almost incredible speed the fire forced its way into the white residential sec. tion. By' noon the streets were filled with automobiles loaded with house hold goods and "carrying " them, te places of safety. Here and there on the sidewalks their few rescued poss essions heaped about them, sat deso late families, homeless and, penniless and looking to the more fortunate for aid..; . v-v-:-: : ; Railroad traffic through the city has been completely suspended, the rails having been warped for a con siderable distance by the intense neat Telegraphic wires also have " been severed and the telephone affords the only means of communicating with other towns: The full' scope of the dis aster has not yet made itself mani fest and it will not be until tomorrow that New Bern will be in a, position to realise the - terrible catastrophe which has befallen it today.. The fire started on Kilarmonick street near the western boundary line of the city and about two blocks from Broad street, covering a distance of eight blocks and sweeping a path of from one to five blocks ' wide. The cemetery on George street prevented the fire from following . a straight course. A shift of the wind .sent it down George street to Pasteur street and then to Crescent street. This was the principal area covered by the fire, but sparks jumped' over the Union station and started a blaze on the river front directly north of Queen street and burned the dock and ware, houses ' on Queen street north j for about three blocks. The entire area of the fire is north of the main business section and did not touch the residential section of the wealth ier citizens. The principal business structures burned were the Dill and Farmers' to bacco warehouses and a brick struc ture formerly occupied by a local ke plant The two churches burned both belonged to negro congregations, one being a fram structure and the other St. Peter's Episcopal church, the finest negro religious edifice in the city and section. - ;-. r, : .... s . have always beeq "used as engagement rings and the latest wedding ring is the diamond circlet The diamond as an . .'ornament,' iff considered a sign of refinement and an indi-"- ; cation of good taste and also as an inytnient they cannot- be beaten.
