ILtfm t. MAYO - ' . ? '? ? Proprietor. "?ART, QOEROH ? ? . Th i B?t?r. WASHINGTON, NORTH CABOLTSA, ATTduSrW, l?i?. "The Colonel talks sort of like. & candidate for some office or other might talk, now doesn't- hef", queries the Greensboro New*.; To be mighty frank about it, it appears to us as if the Colonel is talking more like a plain D. F. .vT<# it ? ? 4 v r *? U' ? ? ? ???*' ?* ? f ? y ? ? ? -*.&0 - ? ? . is not re desiring otherwise it The Greenville Reflector haa started springing conundrums. Inj Thursday's issue, it a*k* the following: '"Hero's one Tor the loons in Raleigh, Washington and New' Bern: If a hen cackle can be heard from Raleigh to Apex, how far can a rooster crow?" If the liedector wishes to puzzle the "loon?." it should a3k some thing hard. Any school boy knows that a rooster can crow as fai as Av cock. (We'll bet a dime that Biggs doesn't "get it.") HOW WE SPKXD OUR MONEY IX AMERICA. The Uui versify News Letter, quoting statistics gathered by the Federal Government, brings out the fact that a dollar in 1915 hfcr: only tho purchasing power that eighty cents had in 1907 as relatW to fifteen of the average food products, consumed bv American peopje. In other words, us the News Letter says, a man drawing a thousand dollar sulurv now i> getting no more than the man who drew eigiit hundred eight year? ago. Tho following statistics, showing how th:' average American family dispose of their incomes, given in the News Letter, will be of interest : "In the homes under investigation, average typical American homes, the family dollar was spent as follows : Food 3.' 3. 5 cents w . . u.i.o Wilis Kent and payment on homes 14.2 c<?nt3 13.0 cents Clothing Miscellaneous 5.4 cents Fuel and light 4.8 cents Furniture and utensils 3.1 cents Liquor and tobacco 2.8 cents Insurance . 2.5 cents Sickness and death 2.4 cents Church, lodge, etc 2.3 cents Amusements 1.5 cents Newspapers, magazines, ctc 1.0 cents Surplus 7.0 cents "It is interesting to note that in 2,5f>7 average American homes, more money went for amusements, newspapers and magazines than went to support both the church and lodge. Liquor and tobacco were also a larger detail. "Also that thia little margin of 7 surplus cents in tho dollar explains the seven billion dollars on saving account in banks of all eorta in the United States." ? Kinston Free Press. LET AMERICANS KEEP OUT OF DANGER. One of the greatest provocations that the United States appears id have for mixing in the Mexican Bcrap and the war in Europe, is the dangers to American citizens who have taken up their residence in these countries. When a foreign vessel, carrying American pas' wingers, is sunk imd Americans lo6e their lives, there is immediate agitation for rhe United States to declare war against the nation that ha* committed the act. When an American is killed byi the Mexican* in the country across the Rio Grande, the navy department at once gets ready to send our battleship* into Mexican waters in order to prevent a repetition of similar occurrences. When an American citizen Takes up his abode in a foreign land, he should, be made to realize that lie is doing so on his own responsi bility. Why should the United Slates render herself liable for warfare on account of citizens who have left her borders and pro tection i It may sound all right, in theory, but. it appears t5o be rather Quixotic in practice. If an American cannot stay iu America, lie ought to be willing tr> suffer whatever dangers he may meet in foreign countries with out the United States being railed upon to act in his behalf. AIDING THE FARMKRS. Elsewhere in these columns there appesrs a copy of an open fetter to the banking, mercantile and agricultural interests of the State and also an advertisement of a local bank, setting: forth whft as sistance would be given the farmers for taking care of their cotton crop. Through the steps that have been taken bv the Federal reserve banks, of which the local bank is a member, it will be possible for the farmers of Beaufort county to secure loans for periods of three months time at the rate of six per cent on the cotton which they may store in standard warehouses. This will enable the farmers to hold their cotton, to await tatter price?, and at the same time to have money with which to meet their present obligations. As the letter states, it is ne<:es#ary for all of the farmers to Join in this movement, as the action of some few who try to "go it alone" fvill occasion demoralization in the prices of cotton. . We urgently adviso tho farmers of Beaufort county to carefully consider this matter. It is an important one and has been foetered and protection.
