' ' Pr0rri^?r hARii QOE&OH WASHINGTON, NORTH QAROUNA, SEPT. 2?, 191 ST Does anyone remember what was used to fill up the front pages of the newspapers before the war in Europe aad the scrap down in Mexico were heard of ! We don't see much sense in this Aaheville-Rocky Mount series If Asheville wins, the Carolina league will hare won the pennant and if Rocky Mount wins, a Carolina team will have won the pen mint, so there you are. ''Those Mexican generals are long on everything else but oommor sen*e and citizenship," says the Greenville Reflector. Money too. THE SALE OF WAR MATERIAL. There are numerous business transactions that are not counte nanccd by moral or just people. No one, who believe? in the right and wrong of things, will sel; a man opium or drugs, with which he may poison his body. Thousands throughout the country are protesting against the sal i if liquor. Various sections of the country are prohibiting litjuor. becausi they realize the evil that it does. No honest merchant will sell a man s gun if the latter openly avows his intention of killing another man. But thousands of men; scores of firms are today engaged in the manufacture and sale of ammunitions to foreign countries in ordor that their citizens may slaughter each othor. And not one. word of protest is made by our citizens. Thoso few who do lift their voices are immediately set down as being pre German in their sympathies. Tho general sentiment is that we ar neutral and that we should not refuse the sale of war material t ?ho? countries that ask for it. But neutrality is only a minor factor in tho affair. The trw reason for our business connection with tho foreign oountries is ti make all the money we can out of the misfortunes of the othei nations. The greed for money started the war and the greed for money it maintaining it. Thousands of men are slain, thousands of home: are saddened because of th?> American guns anl the American bullet1 that are put in the hands of the warring nations. Placed in this light, our position is far from being an enviablf one. But what do the vast majority rpif'Vis MONEY they are after. And for money they are willing to slay, to destroy and to cause ruination. \ When your wifo a*ks you tonight for your candid opinion of thf now frock she bought at the fall opening this afternoon, it will be time to lie like a constable?or a senator. And now we aro informed that tho rates of interest charged by North Carolina banks are lower than in any other Stato in the South. Tf the people would only take the trouble to investigate it. they would find that they are lower right hero in Washington than in any other part of the State. WHAT THE WOMEN COULD DO. In that petition?over 18,000 feet long?which is signed by 500,000 women favoring woman suffrage, and which is to be pre sented at Washington there are doubtless eountl*??a reasons set forth, showing why the ballot should be granted to the so-called "weaker ?ex.". The signers of this petition aro mostly women wh> visited the Panama exposition. It may not have occurred to many, but still the fact remains that the greatest agitation for woman suffrage is on the part of those wo men who have a lot of idle time on their hands and who do not know what to do with it. Very little is heard from tho woman of the home; the woman who is l^ept busy with household duties. Likc wiafc, very little is heard from the woman who works in offices of who ha* other duties with which .-to occupy their miuds. If you H*k them if they favor equot nuffrago. they will probably say yeh. not because they really do, biiG iKHnktirU* they feel it their duty to atan 1 up for the effort that is being nfadc by other members of their sex. Tl it the woman who bas nothing in particular on her hands, who is the strongest advocate for woman suffrage, and in the majority of instances, it is not the principal of the thing that causes her en deavors as it is the fact that it given her something to do. There ar* many more important tliingn that these women cotiM turn their hand* to than fighting for "vote*." , There are many other and more beneficial uses to which they could put their money., Thousands of dollars have already lieeu spent in this and other countries, and thousands will probably be spent in the future. There ?re many women in the big cities who are suffering for want of foocl, and clothing. There are many who are homeless. There are many who would make excellent business women if they had the proper education, but they have not the means to enable them to attend schools and colleges. If those women who are now spending so much time in endeavor" ing to secure equal suffrage, would ynly turn their efforts towards helping their unfortunate sisters, they would accomplish far more pad greater result?. Their work then would be of real benefit to the conn try and to all the people in it. If you have not yet attended the revival at the Baptist church, you should by all means make an effort to do ?o.

It i precedent for the party to folio*, so Vaog as the incumbent the duties acceptably to the people. The terrieaa of Colonel Grimes measure right up to the baat traditions of the party. It would re <;uire man* years for another to gain the efficiency that Colonel Qrimeu now has. The people, whoso only interest is in securing good service, usually take this view of the situation and will prob sbly re-elect Colonei Grime*. T7T There wh once upon a time a Young Mac, * ton of worthy par ent*, who was possessed with muci mopeys and who tared to make this fact known to hia friend? and neeighbors. And the Young Mas took tho^i^U out joy riding and to the theatre?, and he gave entartainmwila far his friends. He did alao order muoh beer and apirituoua -liquor from Norfolk and did verily have many a quiet , little party, to which hia friends were invited, lie waa indeed what ia termed a "Good Fallow," and hia frieoda did oft remind him of thie fact. And it came to paaa that the. Youtif Man loat hia position. Some >i hia investments turned out bad sad toon he found himaelf en tirely without funds. Did the young ladies still smile .ppqn him and greet him with pleasure ? Were his other friends willing to lend him mone|y when he requested them to<do not Yee, indeed, Henrietta. You probably expected us to eay "No," 'Hit as this is what is termed a "modem parable," we most forsooth ?pring a surprise once in a while. And the Young Man, through .the aid of his friends, managed to -^et back his money and waa soon spending it as fast'as he had done before. REAL ENEMIES. "If men mult fight," says a New Y?rk pastor, "let theik f^ght the o in mo 11 enemies of mankind?disease, poverty, human ignorance, luman injustice and prejudice, child labor, white slavery and the vneh law, and the thousand ilia of body, mind and soul." They are doing it even now, more than most of ua think. The lorror of war obscures the wholesome, generous, constructive move ments that are going on siaiultanaously with it, and even mixed up ?vith it. It isn't all hate and cruelty and bitterness and falsehood. Nohk ?motions are found side by side with deadly passions. In the very .vorst aspects of war will be found traoes of pure and unselfish pur pose. Many of the belligerent nations and individuals are wrong?poesi l>ly they arc all wrong. But to the credit of human nature it must ? admitted that nearly all of them think they are right, and are villingly making heroio sacrifices for what they conceive to be their luty to the community, the nation, the jrace. War is the greatest of all evils, and also the greater inspirer of ielf-abnegation. Millions of men today are giving their lives with' out a murmur, and with absolutely no thought of personsl advan tage. They are fighting and dying?or think they are?to make lifo nobler or more tolerable for their children and their countrymen. If men could only be persuaded to fight like that against "the common enemies of mankind" mentioned .by the pastor! Perhaps (hey will, some day. They go wrong now ehiefly because their hetds are wrong. When the world is properly educated, the nations will know what their real foes are.?Orange (Tex.) Leader. ELECTION OF POSTMASTERS. Colonel Bryan is advocating the election of postmasters by popu I ar vote. Ho contends that as no office comes nearer the people they should have a chance to dccide the question, and it would not matter to him whether the election "it Utt to a primary of the dom iiiHnt party, or -to a general primary." To have been entirely fair to the people, Colonel Bryan should have taksn the-broader view. Tho ptMloffico is an institution that is near the rrhole people and any plar providing for the selection of a postroaater by vote should includ the voters of all parties. It would be inconsistent to advocate th election of a poitmaster on any other basis. And of oourte thi would carry with it the appointment of the man selected, rogardlog of his politics. Colonel Bryan's plan, earned out in good faith would give North Carolina quite a bunch of good Republican post masters.

Republicans have howled mightlv about the inefficiency of the navy and the unprepared nese of the cousta? for coast defense. One of our meanest habits is to remember things, and one of the thing; we remember is that when there was a Republican administration one of its naval exploits was to dismantle eveiy naTy yard on 'he South Atlantic and tl*e Gulf. Secretary Dsnieis had to oome to the rescue of Charleston, Pensacola and New Orleans Mm the foundations for navsl bases there would have been rooted up, stock and branch. What could a big nary do in the absence of nsral bases, navy yards and reeling stations along a coast covering thousands of miles f That'? what The Star wanted to know five year? ago and it wants to kn- w dow. Republicans who shout for naval preparedness bow ought to explain.?Wilmington Star. 3AILT NJJWS WAHJ ty3 0JVE OOOQ RESULT* Best Editorial? of the Day. By virtue of a mart**?? executed by J. A.
