The change in the text books
of the public schools will not take
effect until next summer. The
parent of everv child attending
school will be much pleased to
hear this. Our public school
books cost enough without chang
ing them too often.
The commission appointed to
select the books for our public
schools made their report last
Saturday, after several weeks
careful consideration, and we
hope that their selections will
prove to be wise and for the best
interest of the children. We are
pleased to note that no intima
tions or insinuations have been
made against the honesty of the
commission, which was composed
of highly honorable men, who
are supposed to have been se
lected for their superior knowl
edge and judgment as to the va
rious books offered. Of course
they could not have pleased all
the book agents, but we doubt
not they tried to act for the best
interests of the state.
The threatened railroad strike
may yet be averted. After ef
forts of the board of arbitrators
had signally failed and the strike
seemed inevitable appeals were
made to President Wilson for
him to try to settle the differ
ences between the employes and
the railroad managers. He very
gladly undertook this apparently
hopeless task, and at last ac
counts the outlook was more en
couraging for an amicable settle
ment. If the President should
be successful in securing a set
tlement he will be entitled to the
profound gratitude of every per
son in this country.
Few persons, especially in the
rural sections, can appreciate
fully the conditions that would
prevail if the strike is ordered.
It would simply cause a paralysis
to every line of business through
out the United States. Not a
railroad train would be run, ei
ther passenger or freight. This
would seriously affect every line
of business, even reaching those
places not on any railroad. Such
a condition can hardly be imag
ined, and it would affect persons
in a way they do not now think
of. It would bring the people of
the United States face to face
with conditions that few of them
now can even imagine. Such a
condition would prevail that
would make them most keenly
feel their dependence on the rail
roads. Any man or set of men who
would stand in the way of a just
settlement of the differences ex
isting between the railroad em
employes and their managers
cannot be too severely denounced
or punished. Such men, if there
be any, should be made to realize
that this is not a trouble. between
the employes and employers
alone, but all the lawabiding peo
ple of this country are deeply
concerned and would suffer most
seriously if the strike is ordered.
The entire country would suffer
seriously in case there is a stride,
and all good citizens should join
in trying to reconcile the exist
ing differences.
No greater compliment could
have been paid President Wilson
than the fact that everybody felt
relieved when it was announced
that he would undertake to avert
the threatened strike. The pub
lic generally, without regard to
politics, felt that he could and
would settle the. trouble and
avert the terrible calamity that
so seriously threatened our whole
country. There seemed to be a
general feeling that, as he had
thus far averted a war with
Mexico and any European na
tion, he would also avert this ca
lamity that would be more disas
trous to business than war itself.
The business world showed its
confidence in his ability to avert
the strike by the price of all
stocks advancing in price as soon
as he undertook his difficult task,
which is now believed to be cer
tain of success.
The truth of the matter is that
President Wilson has the confi
dence of the entire country as a
safe and sane President, and
they will show that confidence by
re-electing him next November
and not "swap horses when cross
ing a stream."
Internal Revenue Collections.
Washington, Aug. 13. Under
the direction of Commissioner
W. H. Osborn the federal gov
ernment collected more internal
revenue for the fiscal year ended
June 30, 1916, than at any previ
ous time in the history of the
bureau, according to a prelimi
nary report made public by the
commissioner tonight. The re
port shows that during the year
the aggregate collections were
$512,723,287, while for the year
of 1915 they were but $415,681,
023, showing an increase in to
tal for this year over last of $97,
042,263. The report shows that only five
states in the union contributed
more revenue to the federal gov
ernment than North Carolina
New York, Illinois, Pennsylvan
ia, Kentucky and Indiana being
the stages leading North Caro
lina. The aggregate amount col
lected from North Carolina was
$19,543,586.25. Of this amount
Collector A. D. Watts, of States
ville, collected $13,015,068.80, or
twice as much as the Raleigh of
fice, which only turned in $6,
528,517.45. The ordinary collections, in
cluding the emergency revenue,
amount to $378. 756 for 1916, while
the collections from the income
tax aggregated $124,937,252, an
increase of $44,375,493 over the
amount collected from incomes
in 1915. Income tax receipts
from corporations were $56. 972,
676 and from individuals $67,943,
639. Just the Tltng for Diarrhoea.
"About two years ago I had ase
vere attack of diarrhoea which lasted
over a week," writes W. C. Jones, Bu
ford, N. D. "I became so weak that
I could not stand upright. A drug
gist reeommeuded Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy. The first dose relieved me and
within two days I was as well as ever."
Many druggist recommend this reme
dy because they know that it is reli

Three Soldiers Drowned.
Wilmington, Aug. 13. -Three
members of the North Carolina
coast artillery reserves, in annual
encampment at Fort Caswell,
near here, lost their lives today
while bathing in the surf at the
fort. The dead are First Ser
geant William Ardrey and Lance
Corporal Leonard Swaim, of the
Charlotte company; Fred White,
of the Salisbury company.
It is stated positively thatj
Swaim and White were drowned.
Ardrey is believed to havdied
of heart failure. The bodies of
Ardrey and Swaim were recov
ered within a few minutes and
vigorous but futile efforts were
made by the camp physicians
and the Oak Island life saving
crew to resuscitate them.
White's body was washed away
by the strong outgoing tide and
has not been recovered. It is
said that Ardrey and Swaim lost
their lives in efforts to rescue
White, who cried for help when
he found himself being carried
out by the tide.
Why Endure Summer Colds?
It isn't necessary to have a stuffed
head, running nose. To cough your
head off as it were. All you need do
is usa Dr. Bell's Pine-Tar-Honey. The
soothing and healing balsams open
the clogged air passages and in a short
time you get relief and start on the
road to recovery. Your nose stops
running, you cough less and you know
you are getting better. Get a bott!e,
use as directed. Keep what is left as
a cough and cold insurance, adv.
While trying to get on a mov
ing freight train at Rnleigh last
Saturday a colored boy, named
Moses High, fell and was so bad
ly hurt that he died soon after
being carried to a hospital.
Five persons were killed and
17 were injured when a tornado
swept over the town of Edmund
son, Ark., last Sunday night.
Twelve buildings were blown
down.
Cure for Cholera Morbus.
"When our little boy, now seven
years old, was a babv he was cured of
cholera morbus by Chamberlain's
Colic. Cholera and Diarrhoea Rem
edy," .writes Mrs. Sidney Simmons,
Fair Haven, N. Y. "Since then oth
er members of my family have used
this valuable medicine for colic and
bowel trouble with good satisfaction
and I gladly endorse it as a remedy of
exceptional merit." Obtainable ev
erywhere, adv
The Italian navy has lost one
of its big dreadnaughts, accord
ing to a Turin dispatch, which
tells of the blowing up of the
22.000 ton Leonardo da Vinci in
Taranto harbor as the result of a
fire. Of the crew, 300 were
drowned.
From the tower of the Singer
building, one of the highest in
the world, a man plunged to the
street below last Thursday. His
name was Goldman and he was
about 60 years old.
The Best Laxative.
To keep the bowels regular the best
laxative is outdoor exercise. Drink a
full glass of water half an hour before
breakfast and eat an abundance of
fruit and vegetables, also establish a
regular habit and be sure that your
bowels move once each day. When a
medicine is needed take Chamberlain's
Tablets. They are pleasant to take
and mild and gentle in effect. Obtain

Europe's Prisoners.
Exchange.
A great many people have been
disposed to accept with several
grains of allowance the reports
of the number of men in the pris
on camps of Europe. The view
has been quite generally held
that there must have been dupli
cation of the count when so reli
able a man as Dr. John R. Mott
comes back from Europe and re
ports that more than five million
men are now in the prison camps
of the old world one is compelled
to revise previously formed opin
ions. The number of men who are
held prisoners in the various
of the warring nations is one of
the most impressive evidences of
the magnitude of the terrible
conflict which now for over two
years has been racking the con
tinent of Europe.
The rumber of prisoners now
is double the number of men en
gaged in any previous war.
Germany, according to infor
mation gleaned by Dr. Mott pre
sumably from perfectly reliable
sources, is the nation with the
greatest number of prisoners and
this would seem to be the situa
tion most to be expected, Ger
many having been the best equip
ped for the gigantic struggle and
having beep at close grips with
Russia, the country with the
greatest number of men in ac
tion. Prisoners in German camps
number 1,750,000.
Russia, which also has had a
tremendous role in the mighty
war drama so slowly and terribly
enfolding itself on the blood
soaked battlefields of Europe,
comes next to Germany in the
number of prisoners withlaBout
1,500,000. Austria is next with
million, followed in order by
France, Italy, Great Britain and
Turkey.
The great gathering of prison
ers with all the related tasks of
and holding them is one of the
circumstances which causes won
der at the feet that Europe can
stand for so long the hurden and
strain of the conflict. The prob
lem of prisoners alone would
seem tolae enough to drive the
men who have the power to bring
peace to pass to refrain from
further delay.
