MAYO Proprietor CARL GOERCH Editor WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, MAY 11, 1916. There's one thing about che good old summer time that we espec ially like and that is the crop of peaches. Of course we have "peaches"' in New Bern all during the year, but then any addition to the crop is always an event to anticipate. ? New Bern Sun-Journal. Wo had always heard that New Bern wus more prolific in lemons than peaches. Put in your order for tlair* .ind other decorations now. Onlv a few days until the Elks meet hen* ? March IT and 18. If there is anything in uutulicrs, Kinston should bo the best po lieed city in the world, for it has the distinction of being one of the few, if in reality the only one. have two chiefs of police. ? Kinston! Free Press. Something like th- Cuban array: ? all officers and no men. "Is that a base-ball we hear coming up from the cellar?" queries the News ami Observer. No b loved, merely the Raleigh team slid ing down a few more steps. In spite of all the urging. President Wilson steadfastly refuses io visit Charlotte. If Secretary Daniels or some of those other Tar Heels at the capitol would onlv mention 'Wa*hingtrn' to him. we'll bet that Wood row would be -n his way here on the first train. By the way, just to turn the table*, what has become of that league that New Be rn is trying t-? < rtraniz" among the towns in its scction ? Arise Crumpler, and declare thyself. The Elks, the 'iivrst" organization in tlu United State5, selected Washington, the 'iivest" town in North Can liua for their convention place. Do we hear echoes of "A goo 1 selection !" from other towns \ WASHINGTON'S BIGGEST ASSET. One of the greatest facturs that Washington can employ in lies growth and development is the us.* of the Pamlico river. This great waterway ha* been largely uejrlivtcd in the past. It. is true that, it has been used for floating h.g< and by th ? fish boats that come here from Ocraccke. Hatteras and other points, but its full worth has never been realized. Yesterday's Daily News carried an article which stated that a northern concern was contemplating running a barge line between this eitv and Baltimore. Tlu re i* ?.< question but that this lin? will prove a paying proposition t'r both the operator?; and the citizens of Washington. We should tw\ however. Ik* satisfied with the op eration of this nnf> line. II? cmlar freight connection between hero and Belhaven. Swan Quarter. New Bern. Greenville and other avail able points should bo striven for. A northern firm is going to operate th? Baltimore-Washington line. If The citizen* in this seetion of the State do not get bus v. other northerner* will come in and further promote tlr* water-freight business in thi* State. Some of the local capitalists would undoubt edly find it to their advantage to investigate into the praetibility of the proposition. We believe that it would be a paying investment for them. A "BEAT" FOR TWO PAPERS. We don't know whether '-r hoi the readers noticed it, but the Daily News together with the Free Prc*?* of Kington scored another note worthy "brat" over the or her papers of the State last week. When the German reply t. ? the T'nifed State* note was received; the news was flashed to th*? majority of the papers hy the two big| pres.* associations : the l'nirr-1 Press and the Associated Pre3 8. Both! the Daily Xews and the Free Press subscribe to the former service, and the headlines in both papers stated that "Germany Meets j^d mands of the T'nitcd States. " In practically all of the other pn|^^ readers wore informed ?ha* "0 rman Xetc is T'nsatisfactory," or "Break with Germany is X-w Imminent." A few days latfr. the correctness <>f the l.'ni'rd I'n-s dispatches was verified by Wash ington's action and the oilier papers were forced to change their | views on the note. This is but another i I lii=f r:? t ? ? n of the fact that Daily Xews rehders get. the news while it. is RKAI. n-ws and get it in its correct. form. | BETTER STATION FACILITIES. Just what the Norfolk-Southern intends doing in the way of im-| proving its terminal facilities at Washington is a matter which r<v | mains a mystery to local citizens. At one time reports were current to the effect that the railroad intended building an entire new depot, located at the foot of Main strot, which would prevent the necessity of having to back up into town. No definite information to this effect has ever been given out. however. On the other hand, it is? reported that these plans have been abandoned for the present. In the meantime, the traveling public has to put. up with the present dilapidated building and passengers on the trains are given a mighty poor impression of the city from the view they obtain from the car windows. Tf the Norfolk-Southern intends to put up a new station at a different location any time in the near future, something to that' effect should bo made public and Washinjjrton citizens would un doubtedly manage to be patient for a while longer. But if the company has abandoned its plans, work should be started at once to-' ward improving the appearance of the old station and making it look \m$ like an old foresaken barn. 1 Some Storekeepers Say that HONEY -FRUIT outsells ail other chewing gums put together. This means that most jHjople like HONEY -FRUIT best Stronger words could be used to express this thought but let it go at that. Aren't you- "willing to try a chewing f^um that most people have voted the best made ? Made by FRANKLIN CARO CO., Richmond, Va. WOMEN VOTERS THREMEN BIG WAR ON DEMOCRATS J (By United Press) j Salt I.ake City. May 11. ? Women j voters of the couctry here today j considered whether the pen. after all, really Is mightier than the sword. } Unless the pen shows results ; shortly they say they are going to ! declare war with the political sword | on the Democratic party. Thia was the decision contemplated i by the conference. They threaten | to organize a women's party, which they claim will hold the balar.ee of power in the November election, and^ fight the democrats ? unless the j democrats "come across." I Cruelty to that child of the suf- j fragista, the national amendment '? enfranchising women, is the charge . laid by the delegates today against j ci mociats who have he'd the amend-, meat in committee and threaten to keep It there. If the child Is not i d rested In a new cloak of approval | by committeemen and brought be fore the House for consideration ? favorable coUslderatlon ? this sum mer, the women say there will be new hands In the ' Congressional pork barrel after November. A delegation of women, following, the two day meeting here will be Sent on to Washington to dellyer this message. They will be on a suffrage special with the 23 envoys who ju?t wound up a tour of suf frage states, whipping the women Into line. They will be met at Washington by crowds of suppor ters. The biggest demonstration yet at the Capital awaits them, ac cording to press agents. Both parties have promised strong ruff: age p'.anks in their platforms. This doesn't satiety the delegates. They want real action. GETS CAST OF LIVING DOWN 10 TEN CENTS (By United Press) Barberton, O., May 11. ? Grim necessity and Mrs. Cretia Mclntyre, 62. have bat'.ered the high cost of living down to ten cents a day. The dime covers food, clothing, fuel and of her necessities of life. Since No vember 14, 1915, Mrs. Mclntyre's Income hat; averaged ten cents a I day. Though hindered by rheumatism, she makes her own way, sewing, washing, and peddling household articles. Despite her financial hand icaps. Mrs. Mclntyre is cheerful. She said today: "I will make more this summer, when my rheumatism is better and I ran work faster. I guess I can stand It a little longer. I'm not going to live to be as old as | Methuselah." She has struggled with adversity for 28 years. Her diet consists chiefly of rolled-oats, cornmeal ar.d skimmed m'lk. She buys six pounds of rolled-oats for a quarter, corn seal at two cents a pound, Hkimmed milk at five cents a gallon. Mrs. Mclntyre makes herself oat- 1 meal pancakes In the morning. What i Is left fche fries in the evesinK and makes some corn mush which she I taia With a little skimmed ml.k. Occasionally she has an egg." In the last six ontha this economist has pent $1 for coal and $1.50 for kind ling wood. CUT TfllS OUT ? It I* Worth Money WON'T MISS THIS.

The action of hot water and limestone phosphate on an empty stomach is wonderfully in vigorating. It cleans out all the soar fermentations, gases, waste and acidity and gives pne a splendid appetite for breakfast. While you are enjoying your breakfast the phosphated hot water is quietly extracting a large vol ume of water from the blood and get ting ready for a thorough flushing of all the Inside organs.
