Republic for which it "stands; one nation indivisiblewjth Lib erty and justicj45ran: 'l; THE LEGISLATURE The general ass6rhbly.of North Carolina, commonly1; jcalfed tne legislature, consistingofI20 rep resentatives in tfie'- lower and fifty senators in the upp'er house, convened in Raleigh '.yesterday at noon in its bierifl session. . Lieut. Got. O. Max Gardner, of Cleveland, presides over the Senate and Representative Den nis G. Brummitt, of Granville, was chosen Speaker df the House. Practically the same officers as in 1917 will serve both houses. In the Senate R. 0. Self, is prin cipal clerk and C. C. Broughton reading clerk. In the House, Alex Lassiterof Bertie, was cho sen principal clerk arid D. P: Del linger, of Gaston, reading clerk These officers were selected by the Democratic caucus "on Tues day night. W. D. Gaster, of Cumberland, was re-elected sergearit-at-arms of the Senate, and J. H. Moring of the House. The first few days of this ses sion will be very different from last session when therewas a great rush of local bills ground through the legislative hopper before the constitutional amendment trans ferring such legislation to the counties went into effect. More time can now be given our law makers to consider and discuss matters of state-wide interest and enact really big legislation. Among the important measures which will come up for consider ation will be the ; re-adjustment of the state's system of taxation, providing means : for carrying into effect the six months' school term amendment and. making an equitable distribution of the tax. To meet the danger of inequality of assessment of a uniform levy of 30 cents on the hundred dol lars, it has been suggested that the Ohio system tion should be state, under this collect its taxes of state taxa adopted. The system, would fbm the rail- roads and the corporations while the real estate and personal prop erty of individuals would be tax ed exclusively by the counties. All of these matters will require careful thought and study before a satisfactory solution is reach ed. Among the first important leg islation passed will doubtless be the ratification of the. national prohibition amendment. The anti-saloon league will ask the cre ation of the office! of prohibition commissioner, similar to that in Virginia, whose duty it will, be to more strictly enforce the state prohibition laws.' Anqnster law may also be considered under which a sheriff who faih to en force the law would be subject to removal. A more stringent anti ' 'pistol toting" law may be adopt ed. The West Virginia law re quiring every purchaser of a pis tol to register his name and ad dress and obtain a license to buy pistol may be patted. These and many other macir3 irill be carefully studied by our: law makers during the sixty days they are in aesion. IT now seems probable . that trie irovernment will lease instead of buy the land on which Camp Bragg la being built. Work on ' the Fayetteville camp is going forward rapidly, over 4,500 car ina of material having been un loaded on the grounds since late summer. , The water and sewer age systems are nearing comple tion, hundreds of miles of water mains and sewers having been dug and pipes laid. Good gravel and sandclay roads are being built ateo. COL. ROOSEVELT DEAD. Ex-President Theodore Roose velt died at his home at Oyster Bay, N. Y., on last Monday, aged 60 years. He had only been sick for a few -days, and his death took the country wholly by sur prise. On New Year's day he had an attack of inflammatory rheumatism, since which time he had been confined to his home. JVIrs. Roosevelt "was the only member of his family with him at the time of his death. His death removes one of the most remarkable characters in American history. While not possessing an even temperament or poise, yet his one hundred per cent Americanism found many admirers not only in his own par ty, but among those of different political faith. His too frequent intemperate utterances detract ed somewhat from an otherwise strong personality. He was eas ily the most conspicuous figure in the Republican party, and many persons predicted his nom ination by that party in 1920 for the presidency. Colonel Roosevelt, with the ex ception of President Wilson, was doubtless the most conspicuous figure in American public life, and his death will be learned with regret by thousands of! American citizens both at home and abroad. ! The state of Kentucky will col lect over four and a half million dollars in inheritance taxes from the estate of the late Mrs. Mary Lilly (Kenan) Flagler, one time widow of the magnate Henry M. Flagler, of New York. This huge sum will wipe out the entire state debt and place a surplus in the Kentucky treasury of $1,732,000. 'The total value of the estate was approximately one hundred mil lion dollars. Mrs. Bingham's favorite niece and principal ben eficiary, Mrs. Louise Wise Clisby, formerly of Wilmington, will re ceive $72,000,000 from the es tate. The United Daughters of the Confederacy have completed the j 4- v; of ten beds at the American mili tary hospital at Neuilly, France. The daughters are now maintain ing 70 beds at this hospital at a maintenanee cost annually of $42,000. The Baptist state convention, which was to have been held last month, will meet in Greensboro for two days beginning next Tuesday. It gives promise of being one of unusual interest and large attendance. War Stories Eulogy at the Grave of Ensigr Edwin S. Pou. The French government bestowed the service emblem, the Croix de Guerre, on Edwin S. Pou for bravery a few weeks before he was killed in a landing accident in October. Ensign Pou wa? a grandson of the late Dr. R. R. Ihrit and Mrs. Ihrie of Pittsboro. Dr. Ihrie was himself a lieutenant colonel in the Confederate army. The address at the grave on Oct. 3C by Captaine de Corvette Vaschalde was delivered in beautiful language. He said, in part: "Aviators well know that such acci dents may befall them at any time, ant this constitutes the greatness of theii task. What we human beings cal death, threatened them always, and strikes them unawares." 'He was loved by his brother officerr and men of the station," said Capt. C. . Sugden, of the United State cdfes guard, "and by everyone in the sur rounding country who knew him and" who testified to this love and their sor row at bis tragic end, by decorating his sjrave with beautiful floral offerings. Pictures were taken of the ceremoniet at the grave-" . FEARLESS AMERICAN GIRL Caught and Executed In Austria as a Spy Was One of a Band of5 One of the most dramatic chapters of American war spy activity, a coup whereby the German-Austrianfood stocks were nearly wrecked last winter by almost 2,000,000 spurious bread tick ets cirluta ted in the central powers, has been disclosed in Paris. The plot cost ths lives of two American patriots, one a girl. , Early in J anuary, 1918, five American spies, including Rosa Litzenauer form erly an obscure music teacher f Mil waukee, Wis, crossed the frontiers of Germany from Holland and Switzer land. The spies carried counterfeit bread tickets that were printed in Wash ington. Working with confederates among corruptible food administration officials in Dresden, Munich, Frankfort, Berlin, Prague and Vienna," tbe Americans suc ceeded in distributing more than l.000, P00 bread tickets. Again in April a second attempt was made through the same channels and more than 800,000 tickets were distrib uted before the German secret service, seeking the cause of the unprecedented decrease in the supply of bread, discov ered the trail of the Americans. Realizing that their usefulness had ended,. the Americans made an effort to escape. Three of them managed to reach neutral countries, but Rosa and a male companion were caught. Both were tried as spies, condemned and shot at Praugue. Rosa died not knowing that she had helped to create more havoc among the German and Austrian forces than a di vision of American troops could have caused, for the flood of nearly 2,000,000 spurious tickets, circulated during five months, so depleted the bread stocks that the food administrations of the central powers were forced to reduce even the army supplies.

HUTS Anauai Report of Southeastern Da. partment Reveals 38,886,930 Bmy In Camps Crowded Buildings (By L. Porter Moore.) Atlanta, Ga., August 25. An attend ance of nearly twenty times the pop ulation of Atlanta swarmed happily in Y. M. C. A. huts in the seven states of the Southeastern camps dur ing the fiscal year July 1. 1917, to July 1, 1918, according to the annual r prt just issued here. In other words, soldiers in the Soutk eastern cantonments to ths number of 38,866.980 men wrote letters In th "Y" army and navy huts, read litera ture there and joined in the religious services and entertainments held i the Red Triangle buildings which dot military reservations In Georgia, Ala bama, Tennessee, the Carolinas, Mis sissippi and Florida. It is easy to imagine the mountains of stationery the Y. M. C. A. provided in the camps of the Southeast when it Is stated that soldiers wrote 32, SS9.002 letters in the "Y" hats. The Red TrlangLe workers also made out $2;463,744 worth of money orders for the soldiers, most of the amount be ing sent home to relatives. Educational Work Featured The "Y" also provided 4.005 educa tional lectures with a soldier attend ance of 1,291,243. The educational, classes of various kinds aggregated 64,813 and the attendance was 978, 045. Books circulated by the Y. M. C. A. numbered 764,710 and educational clubs formed among the men were 649. Physical activities when figured in statistics amounted to an amazing amount It is estimated 3,683,350 par ticipated in the various physical ac tivities such as baseball, track and field meets, baseball, etc. The spectators, the majority of them soldiers, at these physical activities, are estimated for the year at 5,646, 313. The resume of religious activities shows that 3,464,451 persons attended 16,468 religious meetings under "Y" auspices in the Southeast, that 21,288 Bible classes were formed among the soldiery with attendances ranging at 395,348, that 223,232 Scriptures were distributed, that "Y" workers had 157, 533 personal Christian interviews with soldiers, that the boys made 43,093 Christian decisions and that 72,693 signed the religious war roll. The attendance at the social events of the Y. M. C. A. was phenomenal during the year 3,713,609 attending 8,190 entertainments. The attendance at the "Y" movie shows was estimated at 4,678,530 for 8,222 performances. OR. ,J. C. MANN LYE-SIGHT SPECIALIST W;ll Vio of TiT Phinm'a nffioA Pit.frshnrr TT Jll u V - , - " , N.

' J. H. PICKARD. Clerk's Box, ja2 3t San Diego, Cal. Angelas Indecision By ETrlEL HOLMES (Copyright, 1817, Western Newspaper Union.) : ...... . Evan Cartright .was an unsuccessful wooer of Angela : Drew. - .But Angela instead of turning Ev.an down in such a way as to take away all hope, dealt with him gently. She was very sorry for him; hoped he would find one who would be -more worthy of him than herself, and above ail, that they might still be friends. Evan drew a deep sigh within his manly chest he was a big fellow and accepted th?- situation. He had not thought of : entering the great world war, but now that he had been refused by the girl he loved, he de cided to do so. lie was about finish lng his college course, and as the great- fer part of his class were volunteer ing, he enlisted and the government commenced the work of making a sol dier of him. Angela wrote him, commending his patriotism, and predicted that he would be one of his country's honored servants. . , How Evan was to become one of his country's honored servants, permitting his comrades to move onward, while he lagged behind, only kept up to his work by incessant urging, did not ap pear. He wrote In reply that he hoped he would have the grit to be. among the first to go "over the top," and among the last to give up any gain that might have been made by himself and his comrades. Angela wrote In reply to this that she didn't mean that she advocated his i being a laggard, but in trying to ex i plain what she did mean let out the main part of what she felt,' which was that, she was very much afraid that Evan would get hurt. A lover is not prone to see a weakening on the part of the girl who has refused him, but all this seemed to Evan to denote an Interest in him on the part of his fair correspondent. He was emboldened to offer himself again, doing so by let ter, for he was now in the service of the government, which was preparing troops as rapidly as possible to send abroad, and would not stop while the men they were training endeavored to capture ladies' hearts. Angela wrote back that an engage ment between a girl and a man who was going to a .war that might last many ysars semed to her very un wise, especially this war, which was strewing Europe with dead. How ever, she would think about, it. Angela thought about it for several months without arriving at a decision. Finally Evan wrote her that the force to which he belonged had been ordered to the Atlantic coast, which meant that it would probably be prepared to send abroad. When a woman I? called upon to de cide such questions upon . which she has grave doubts, she is apt to give some queer reasons for what she does." Angela demurred, for the reason that she had always expected when 'she married to have a very large and im posing wedding. Her mother was ill, and this would now be impossible. If Evan did not sail for France till after her mother got well, she would make a final decision. . A month passed, and Evan's regi ment did not leave the United States. Angela's mother got well. There seem ed to be no reason why Angela should not marry Evan if he could get leave for tlie purpose. She decided that she would do eo, and wrote him to that effect. He applied for a furlough and was refused. This put a stopper on a large and imposing wedding. Indeed,! there could be no wedding at all, unless the bride should go to the groom. Angela took the matter under consideration? Evan admonished her that he was liable to sail at an hour's notice, and that she had better make up her mind at once. She did make up her mind, nd wrote him that she would go to him the day after tomorrow." ... . Dn the evening of the day of her decision Angela received a telegram that her fiance would sail the next morning. The Journey before her could not be made in less than 35 hours. Evan was called up by tele phone and an interview between hn,i and Angela followed. Evan saw n J way for them to ba married until he returned from the war. Angela, who had been balking for many months, was now In great distress that she could not be wedded. A family council was Called, at which her father suggested a marrlago by telephone. A lawyer was called in, who pronounced such a marriage legal. Evan was called up again ; the plan was proposed to him, and he consented. A clergyman was called in to tha Drew residence; Angela stood by -the receiver which she held so that both could hear the responses, Evan called a comrade to act as best man, anl the clergyman read a service. A ring was put on Angela's finger by her brother, for the groom, and the final "man and wife" was. pronounced, j The nest morning Evan sailed for France and Angela was left behind to j mourn her indecision, and to regret that it had kept her from bidding her j husband good-by. Indeed, had she , made a definite decision either way, it j would doubtless have been better for jher. Had she declined him absolutely : at first, neither would have been think jing of the other very long. Had shg j accept him when he proposed, they i might have been much together bef o:- he embarked for France. DR. S. E. Douglass DENTIST;' All Kinds of Dental Work.

The gigantic task before the Food Administration and the American pea pie in the matter of saving foodstuffs was explained by State Food Adminis trator Henry A. Page today upon his return from Washington where he, with Executive. Secretary John Paul Lucs, attended .a . conference ; of all Fool Administrators with Mr. Hoover and. his staff. ' The- purpose of this conference was to.liscu3s in detail and determine upon details of .policy dur ing the present fiscal year. s What the- Food , Administration and the American people are up against may'jreadily be seen'' from the state Jnent.that the. Food Administration has promised to send to the Allies during- the present fiscal year 15 mil lion tons of foodstuffs as against: the 10 miilion tons saved and "shipped to them by the most strenuous effort during the last fiscal year; and in ad dition to this increase of 50 per cent In experts, to lay up a reserve of wheat, and . other foodstuffs as insur ance against a short crop next year which, without such-insuranca, might well prove disastrous for the Allied cause. : . Must Strip to the Bane. "This whole nation must strip to the bone if our armies are to be given a fair chance to win this wnr next year." declared Mr. Pags. "The view Is frankly expressed in Government circles at Washington that our failure to win the war': in 1S19 will cost the lives of a million- addition American soldiers. , "The whole thing resclves itself Into the question, 'Are the American people at heme going fo make sacri fices to make probable the winning of the war next year, or shall our armies sacrifice a million red-blooded Ameri can boy3 been use they do net got the backing at home which they must hr.ve from this very minute if they are to win. "The food products are pretty well balanced. TVe are .not, going to havo any spectacular drives on meat sav ing, wheat saving or fat saving, but we must have a terrific drive on '.the saving on all foodstuffs; We must actually set clown, to . bed rock and live by this motto: ' " "' - "Buy Less, '. "Eat Less, "Waste JCoth-'ng '.-'. - Wails the producers fc-.nt add t that motto the further injunction: "Produce More." . : ,- - - Must Tas'ie of Real Saorifise. "Our people have not '.realized yet what real war strain is. Before this war ends they must taste of real "sac rifice, i They must have a war con sciousness that will make them direct the ccurse of their affairs in such direction .as . will afd -in the winning of the -war". Every individual must con sider the effect Qt 'every ..action: unon the course of the. war. Jn no other way can we win 'without useless sac rifice or lives .and the Continuation of the appalling suffering in our Allied countries acd in the -countries of friendly neutrals. "One very great incentive to the quickest possible winning of the war is the condition of ISO million neut reis, extending from Roumania cn the soath and including Poland, Norway, Sweden and Holland: In some cf those countries there '..is: the- most acute sufTeriBg. Hundreds of thou sands of those people can see abso lutely nothing ahead except slow starvation. It is our humane duty, in addition to our duty to our own sold iers and Allies,-to -win. this .war just as quickly as possible so that we may relieve these people. We can do noth ing for them as long as the' war lasts and all ol our exports are required for our Allies. Non-Essentials Must Go. "Not only in foodstuffs must the American people economize; we must economize i? labor particularly and in other things, iarg- factor.- the war situation. It. is ex.-rl .-at we w.ll have between two and three millions additional men In France early next summer, : with a million or more under arms in camps in this country. At the same time we must very greatly increase' the number of -workmen in shipyards, munition plants and other war industries. All of this means that there i3 to be an unprece dented drain upon the labor of the f-n-jTitry Trn oBential industrife-s must go. Women must take the place of men in some industries that are es sential. , In France 95 per cent of agri cultural work is being done by women and children and. the other 5 per cent by old men and wounded men. We shall not approach any such condition as this, but patriotic women must volunteer for such positions as they can fill and men just be relieved wherever possible for the harder man uel labor required In agriculture and tha essential industries. "The 'Work or Fight' order of Gen eral Crowder applied to the new draft Is toirig' :to work wonders but in this country we must depend 'Upon the vol untary, patriotic- effort and co-operation by -every individual , man, woman and child.

A. C. Ray, Attorney. PEOPLE 1ST EFFORT, DECLARES M I N I STR ATO R PAGE ars confidenet that the American peo ple will not fall in this matter. It is a source of constant wonder to the English, French, and Italians that we have been able to accomplish through intelligent, voluntary co-operation the savings in foodstuffs that were abso lutely necessary to keep those natioas in the "war. "We shall not have the direct ap peals of 'meatless days' and 'wheatless meals.' et. cetera, from now on, but I am confident,, speaking for North Caro linians, that our people have acquired such a war consciousness that thej need only to be told what Is necessary for the winning of the war. The few food slackers, labor slackers, and other kinds of slackers among us must be made to feel the , withering scorn and burning contempt of patriotic and decent people, so that they will not dare endager the success of the war through their disloyalty and failure to do something like their duty. "Our leaders feel that our people desire to share in the sacrifices that have been made and are being made by our Allies. Our people do not need to suffer to the same extent as our Allies have, but it shall be their priv ilege, as well as their duty, to cut out J non-essentials in every thing, espec I ially in those articles that must be ! transported, so that they may not mid to the strain upon our resources ami upon our railroads. ' Sugar Still Scarce. "The sugar situation is unchanged. The October allotment will be the same as the September allotment, and j it is not likely that there will be any ! change in the sugar ration until next i summer. It is hoped by that time we I will build up a sufficient reserve to the next season. There are going to be further restrictions on the use f sugar for the less essentials. The Flour Program. "It is very probable that within a short period practically all the flour sold throughout this country will be ready -mixed, so that the housewife will not be inconvenienced! to the ex tent of having to mix her 20 per cent of corn meal or other substitutes with flour.. Until the mixed flours are ob tainable it is very earnestly desired that -every patriotic American house wife will not make any bread, cake or tar wh.t pr4ct wfc2ot teeor prting wltb it & pound of cers. meal or other cereal substitute for each four pounds of flour. Necessar ily this mixing will have to to be done in the home until the mills are prepar ed to turn out mixed flour in large quantities. "All in all, instead of letting up be cause of good crops, we must look ahead and tighten up In all things so that this war. may be won quickly and decisively and all the horror in neutral as -vmw'1 as belligerent Europe may be ended." Raleigh. "The cottonseed industry, from producer to refiner, has been sta bilized on a basis much higher than any one could have hoped for a few weeks ago," today stated John Paul Lucas, Executive Secretary of the Food Administration, upon his return from Washington where he, with State Food Administrator Henry A. Page, attended a conference of all State Food Administrators with Mr, Hoover. The price of cotton seed has beem stabilized at a slightly higher average figure than the figure received " for them by farmers last year. The price of oil has been stabilized at the same figure, thanks to the Food Adminis tration's influence with the refiners and compound lard manufacturers through its control of export sales of their products. The price of hulls will be $20 per ton. The jrice a' meal will he a little higher at the mil. than it was last year Unless the War Industries Board can ba influenced to increase, the price of linters from the present figure of 54.67 per hundred. If the price of linters is increased, the price of meal will be decreased. . The price of cottonseed was fixed at the figure suggested by the produc ers cf cottonseed as represented by the Commissioners of Agriculture and farmers' organizations throughout the South. This basis was approved arl recommended by the Food Adminis trators of the cotton-producing States and accepted by Mr. Hoover and the Cottonseed Division. The price for seed will range from $G4 to $73 per ton, depending upon oil and protein content. The whole South is being divided Into zones, according to : the oil and protein content in the respective zones. ' North Carolina will be divid ed into two zones. Zone No. l showed last year an average oil content of 307 1-3 pounds per ton, and the price of seed in this zone will be $70 per ton. The content of oil in zone No. 2 was last year 320 pounds per ton, and the price of seed in this zone will be $73 per tbn.' Zone No. 1 embraces all of that- territory east of the eastern boundaries of Robeson, Hoke, Harnett, Waks, Franklin and Warren counties, and zose No. 2 the" counties named and fcl?
