WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, APRIL 1, 1916. - "PIIOOL1SH FEELINGS." Having some of your friend from the country slap you on the fcack and givo you the glad hand and then not be able to recall their Barnes. Wo have with us today:?"APRIL FOOL." Things to be grateful for: That we haven't a family of children as large as the number who were assembled in Washington yesterday. I Everyone appeared to have a pood time yesterday. We hope that the visitors won't wait until the next commencement before coming to see us again. Highly dissatisfied over the action that Congress took over the suf-, fragc question, prominent suffragists are now on the trail.of Con gressman Webb, who, they'claim, is responsible for the defeat of their plans. Equal suffrage agitation at the nresent time has about as much effect on Congress as a mosquito bitcron a soldier in the trenches, who expects to get shot every minute. - 1 TIIE POLICE DEPARTMENT. Our attention i? often called to some omission or dereliction of duty upon the part of ihe polico officers. We do not object to publishing honest criticism of the officers and, infact. believe it our place to do so. for when this criticism is given in the proper spirit it will bo tho m ani of obtaining better results ami improving conditions generally. We take U'? stock in lambasting the officers or any administration ?imply f.?r the purpose of stirring up srfTife and dissension. Again, we further realize in a tow^the size of Washington that it is impossible for the number of officers now employed to be in. all parts t f thf town at the ?ume time. Wa?hiuuU>n lias live officers, including the Chief of Police, whose duty it is to collect the special tnx and look after the court trials. This prevents the chief from being an active officer, as far as patrol work is conccrnul. It will le rc-ii that four officer? do the active work of policcing the town. Two of these are on at night and two at day. For twr> officers t-i putr??l the city and lie on each street corner to apprehend ?omeoiir violating tho city regulations and the criminal statutes wouid bo impossible. There are many cases of speeding automobiles or motor eyrb>, riding bicycles 011 sidoNvalks, disorderly conduct, drunk eiinc^, promiscuous shooting, looking after cows and dogs and many other oalls a* well as meting all trains coming in and going out of the citv and nn additional watchfulness for any criminal violations. One can see "hat all this is a little more than the officers can accom plish. We must admit in justice to those serving in this capacity it is an entirely different, proposition from what it was twenty years ago when we hardly knew what nil automobile or a motorcycle looked like, when we had one train leaving here at four o'clock in tho morning and returning anywhere between eight o'clock at night and midnight, and when tli open saloon was allowed to exist and the laws were quite different as to the sale of whir-key. Furthermore, many towns of the .-ize of Washington have one police officer for ab-vf every seven hundred to-eight hundred people. Ac-[ cording to this we should have citrht or nine officers to havo reason-) ??ably fair police protection compared with other cities. lJut our inquiry is as to who would pay tho bill. Tho regular police get $00.00 per month or $720.00 per year. Furthermore, whenever a charge is inado against the officers, if thei person or persons interested will back it up with facts we.feel it will be of intere-t to the citizens and shall l>e pleased to publish it, but if it is mere gossip, retaliation or dislike, it can only create dissension ami false impressions which is not the policy of this paper. TU K COrXTY COMMENCEMENT. Thr? conimcw-nient exorcises of the Heaufort county schools were lr-lif in Wnsiiinirton yesterday. The occasion was earned out suc cessfully in ( vrv detail. The parado was excellent, the floats showed carrfrl preparation and the exhibits of work none in tho schools dur i .g the last eyar wero greatly admired by all who saw them. It is e -ident. iluit the county srhools havo progressed rapidly. Tho showing ihey made yesterday provod this fact. The teachers deserve the hi^'he^t commendation for ihe work .they havo dono and for tho fin? showing that their schools and pupils made yesterday. An event, such., a* yesterday's amuses general interest in the wel firo of the school? in the county. No one could help but feel proirl of m*i. a gathering of srhr>ol children and the desire naturally follows to do everything possible towards making a better showing next ypar. The schools are the eon.ity's most important asset. They deserve ihe n:y>port of every rill >. ft is hoped that next, year's commence nrmt will be even larger i?ri better than the one that was held yea icrd ny. T!.f comrr^ttcx* which had in charge the arrangements for the event s'tetidcd to nil details tJioronerhlj and it is due to their efficient work tuat everything wont o'f ?..-noothly.
