Folk) will refuse to get stirred up to any great extent over the* Marina affair until after it is decided whether Hughes or Roosevelt is going to have the say-so in international affairs. The New Bern Sun-Journal issued a most attractive fair edition in magazine form last Saturday. It was "class". from cover to cover and an' effective means for spreading interesting information regard ing the Eastern Carolina fair. CONDITIONS IN MEXICO. News coming out of Mexico these days is about as intelligible as that which has been coming since Huerta started all the trouble about three years ago, or rather since the split between Villa and Carranza. That Villa is again very active and that he has gained some dis tinct advantages over the first chief appear to be well established facts. In short, another good-sized revolution seems to be under way and what it will lead to remains, of course, for the future to disclose. Some of the party organs in the eastern states are trying to connect Villa's latest activity with the American political campaign. They say hat he is being financed by the G. O. P. "slush" fund and that his only purpose is to arouse anti-Derafocratic sentiment just previous to the election next week. Of course that is campaign talk and must be just as closely scrutinized as all other campaign claims and talks, vet the fact can't be denied that the bandit chief is getting the sinews of war from somewhere and that somewhere is outside the limits of the Mexican republic. Even Villa can't conduct war on atmosphere, say that he is being financed by the G. O. P. "slush" fund and that his for the better. At least the Atlantic City conference should show some signs of activity. TIIE BENEFITS OF CIRCUS DAY. Yesterday was "circus day' in Washington. The two performances were witnessed by hundreds of residents of both city and country? All had a good time and all enjoyed the exhibitions. Some people claim that the visit of the circus should be discour age'!, on the grounds that it takes too much money away from the city. It is true that several thousand dollars are taken in by the circus, but we believe that the community, in which the circus plays, gets value received for every dollar that is spent. The circus accomplishes a number of thing?. It provides clean, wholesome and instructive entertainment for all classes, it makes a big day &>r the merchants, it brings hundreds of persons into town and gives a general opportunity for a "mingling together" and getting better acquainted. Instead of being discouraged, we feel that every inducement should be made by a city to get the circuses to visit it.. It leaves a "pleas ant taste" for many days after the tents have been torn down and the elephants are many miles away. The Robinson shows, which were in Washington yesterday, cannot be commended too highly for the class of attraction which they pre sented. It was one of the best circuses ever seen here and it is to l>e hoped that they will come back this way again next season. A hearty welcome will await them. TOWN FACTIONS. Perhaps after the election, things will change in Mexico and change tarding the growth antl prosperity of a town as factionalism. It spreads itself as a pall over the community life, and under its malign influence all progress wilts like a pear tree under the blight. No an*>unt of energy and public spiritednowi is sufficient to survive its depressing effects. Take the average town torn by factionalism. A measure of public improvement is proposed. It comes from one of the two factions. It really has merit and would he beneficial Oo the town. Does it meet with approval? Yes ? from that side of the house. From the other sido, bitter opposition. Why ? No mortal man can t^l. except that it emanated from "the other side." There y*>u have the meat in the cocoanut.. "The other side" stands for everything that is undesirable and vicious. And it is a sad commentary on our boasted Christian civilization that this spirit of bitter factionalism too frequently originates where it should never be found ? in the churches. With them, all too fro quently, "our folks" doe* not mean, a? it should, all of God's crea tures, but is contrasted tto apply to "our church/' lie it Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Christian, or what not. Again, in many small towns, this factionalism (?enters in the banks. Each has its following. Each is striving not only to build up its own fortunes but to tear down the other. But from whatever source, the fact remain?? and the factionalism flourishes-? a sad commentary on the boasted "progrcsaiveness" of our countrymen. And the pity of it is that it is all useless and fruitful of no good results to either side. United effort would invariably accomplish for both what divided wrangling accomplishes for neither. There is a world of truth in the old emblem of the bundle of sticks, bound together, which no man could break, but which, taken sep arately, a child could destiny. No factional fight in a community ever yet resulted in complete victory for either side. Many communities have had the sagacity to recognize this fact and. while there have always been and will always differences, have had the good sense to endeavor to harmonize and work together for the common interest When we see a community torn by factions, we feel like reminding It of the old fsble of the cats and the monkey ? the cats found the cheeae, but the monkey ate it at last i ADVERTISEMENTS IN THE DAILY NEWS GIVE RESULTS IS WASHINGTON PARK! a. a If rou had m .
