JAM iso Is MAYO.;.._ Pbopmttob CARL GOERCH. .Editor WASHINGTON, NORTH CAROLINA, JUNE 28, 1916. Cammza says ho doesriH want war. And the little boy who got caught stealing the jam said ho didn't want to get spanked; but h\ did, just the same. Still water runs deep, which reminds us that we haven't heard i single chirp in suiue time from that little empire on the other side of the Pacific. With their pockets bulging with money, it i* expected that the citizens of Aurora will get up a t'rtir this fall which will make the one at Raleigh lock like a side show to a tbroc-riug circus. Tf ?mwne would only act a bunch of cannon crackers off under li?uh, or do something else 10 make that little town fret a wiggle on every part of the county would bo in the limelight iu the way of progress and development. Some countries are born to war: some achieve war, and other have war thrust upi/ii them ? like uss frinstance. Juiltrinir from yesterday*? ball game. it would seem that the bjineh of millionaires from Aurora cousider themselves above any such plebeian pastime as basoball. As the pessimist sees it: The United States is bounded on th< north by England, on the south by Mexico, on the east.by Germam and ou the west bv Japan. If that New York broker, who wants to bet $100,000 at 0 to f> that I lushes wins out. has a family dependent upon him, we earncsth advise him to "lay . if." HEATFOliT COUNTY OX TIIE ROOM. Beaufort county is on the threshold of the greatest period of de velopment that" the e tuiy has over known. This may sound like* an oxasrffcrative statement or a mere desire1 to b-'ost the home country, but it is neither. It is based on facts; and ev< :v citizen of the county and of the State is going to find out: that it i s true l>ef.ire Urns;. Many acres of land have been purchased recently by outside? in terests. These men are not eomiwr here with the intention of losing! money. They an* farsighted enough to realize the possibilities of ^ Beaufort county. Thev are investing la rare sum* of money iu the raisins: of crops and livestock. H^_.\k>1 this is not all. vfhc?e men arc not pointr to l>e satisfied with Inn^s f.ir public highway*. *n r are they goinjj to see their ^^T^Bj^lestrovcd by the tick or disease. They are going'to br-nd e^MHBkuird building good road* and toward creating their own ? fM^f^lP*iets and stock laws. Other improvements are bound to follow. ' Another thing: indications arc ihat the farmer* of the county are going to realize handsomely on their crop* this year. Those who raised potatoes have already fid the largest crop over raised in the county. A part of the money they have earned i* troing to improve their farms, their school houses, their churches and their roads. A resident of Aurora, who was in t wn yesterday, in speak in? of that section, concluded his remarks with the; terse statement: "Just keep your eyes on Aurora." And that is something whieh can bo said of the entire county a-? we)l : "Just keep your eyes on Beaufort county." She is going to do big things. THK INTERVENTION' PROBLEM. The United State-; i- attain cr.nfr- nted with the problem of whether to ii*r'vpno or not in Mexico. IJrcent development* serin to indicate ?J i at tut- re is only one channel open for tie* jjovernment to follow ? and that is to send armed men a<'rr>--.= tho Rio Orando and clean up the mess on the other side of the river. There is certainly no ques tion in the minds of anyone but that we have ample justification for such action. The administration ha? done every thin? possible to avert a break between the two countries, but such efforts have proven fruitless. ^Iexico simply WILL NOT behave. The do facto government and the outlaws appear equally hostile to the I'nited States. As lone as they are allowed to do as they please, they will continue the slaugh ter of lives and the destruction of property. They have had ample time to show whether thev ran manage themselves and they have shown that THEY CANNOT. However, it would he unwise to leave our own shores defenseless, while we attempt to bring order out of chaos in the neighboring country. And there comes the great problem that the administration will have to solve. The army MI* ST be increased by many thous ands of men. More- weapons must be manufactured at once; more ammunition provided. It will take ?omo time to do this, and if it is not done in a hurry, it. may bo too late. Everyone of our munition plants should l>o made to cense its exportation of arms to Europe ? at least for the present ? and devote all of their time to providing equipment sufficient for sending men down into Mexico well armed, and also maintaining a strong home guard. THE LESSON IN THE VTOTROLA. Three Vietrolas were recently purchased by prominent local resi dents from out-of-town concerns. This was done in spite of the fact that there are several local dealers who handle these machines. Through these three purchases, local merchants lost about $75. The citizens who bought the Victrolas did not gain anything by buying from out of town, but were forced to pay tho freight out of their own pockets. This really caused them to lose money. Persons may be deluded into thinking that they can purchase some article cheaper in larger cities, but why they should purchase AD VERTISED goods from out of town ? articles on which the price is known to everyone?is more than we can see. There certainly) isn't any logie in tfiai State of North Carolina. Beaufort County. la the Superior Court. John L. itopw Lumber Company , a corporation. V?. K. Allan oi oL To W. D.

Not only was he I Inyol to his church duties, but was always In compliance and joined In every good effort for the UPHft of the community. The consideration ; of his religious spirit he manifested towards his fellowmen caused him to be liked greatly by people jot the other denominations. We extend our thanks and appre ciation to Mr. Alllgood for his faith ful service he rendered us so lib erally; and our sincere wishes goes with him in his new field of labor.
