That the registration books, will open at 7 a. m. on Tuesday, the C'.h day of June, and close at 1) p. m. "(2) That't is important .to reg ister early in the day in order to avoid cengestion in the closing hours. "(3) That the law applies to white and black alike. Ministers and teach ers of the colored race are requested erg ot tne colored race are requesteu to emphasize the fact that all colored men yeiftccu me piescriveu v&es arc required to register in precisely the same manner ud the vbil. I "(4) That no physical disability will excuse a man for failing to reg ister. If he is between 21 and 31 years of age he must register in per son or send his card, no matter what his physical condition may be. The question of exempting him from ser vice on account of physical unfitness will be determined at a later day. In no way effects the obligation :mi posed upon him to register.

"4. I urge every man who knows about registration day to deem it his patriotic duty to eee to it that every man in his precinct is informed of the requirements of the law, and let eacb precinct in the State take pleasure and pride in seeing to it that no man in that precinct shall be arrested for laiiure to do his duty. "5. I suggest that on Sunday aft ernoon, June 3d, or on the night of June 4th there be held in every town and city in the State a patriotic rally. Let there be music and flags, and a great outpouring of tht people and then let some one briefly and clearly state the requirements of the law. "6. I do not ask that June 5th, be made a holiday. That question may be safely left to the judgment of each I community and to those in charge ot the industries of the State. If a held needs cultivating, if the machinery needs to be kept running in order to meet the exigencies of the times work ought not to be suspended in order to make a holiday. But I earnestly trust that throughout the State the day may be made one of consecration and prayer. 1 do urge that every man who can spare time will turn out on registration day and assist in every possible way in securing a complete registration in every precinct. "Let the women and the children, together with the older members of the family, go to the place of regis tration with the boy who is to record his name as a champion of justice to all men of peace for all time."

Danger from "Too Much Economy" It begins to look like the spellbind ers who have been exploiting the cry of "Economy" and then some more econom;. ad infinitum are overdoing the thing. At least that is the claim that is now being advanced with much vigor here and in numbers of other cities, where trade and businosii gen erally bcingi 'Ui.l'.y ("ripped by the ''starvation" cry that has been sweep ing over the State and country and which our folks are now being told is largely at least premature. It is claimed that one of the surest ways to bring about starvation conditions in this country is that which rome of 1 the ill-advised showers ar pursuing viz: the crippling ot industries and business and the consequent inevita bly consequent result of throwing many people (with many others de pendent on them) out of' work.

All the tradesmen couldn t even go to the front as soldiers, even if retristration day is only a few days oil. So let's take a reef in this starvation scare stuff before irreparable injury is done. Need of Hasty Action Another proof of the need of Con gress to hasten the enactment of the espionage bill is the cablegram of Admiral Sims that the Germans knew four days ahead that the American destroyer flotilla was on its way to Queenstown. The German spies who iounu mis out knew more about the movement of the flotilla than most of us Americans knew. They are still active and to end their usefulness to Germany the secret service will doubtless redouble its energies in hunting them down. The treatment ot these spies, now that we are at war, will doubtless be of the most rigorous kind. Interned Germans to Hot Springs The Department of Labor has taken the initial steps to provide permanent quarters for intenrned German civil ians, of which there are now nearly ,uuu in neiention at various immigra tion stations, consisting for the most part of the crews of German ships wnicn nave Deen interned in Ameri can harbors since the summer of 1914 To relieve the situation now existintr, the Secretary of Labor has authorized the rental of the Mountain Park Hotel at Hot Springs, this State, which is ready for occupancy and will within the next 10 days house the first con signment of interned Germans. It is planned to take care of the remain- der on Government land in Western North Carolina try.

Those who enlist wlih their home companies, said the General, will be far safer on the tir ing line than those who wait and go with new organizations. It was left to Major Wade H.

Many had begun to leave when the Major arose, but soon the going ceased and he held the atten tiod of hiy hearers until he was com jjji'loe'os in order to ratch the ndjthbourld train. Major Phillips out liiitd the entire situation and remind ed the people that the war now be ginning was their war. Our duly elected representatives in Congress declared the war and in this country the majority rules. He urged upon every man to do his full duty, and ended with a plea to the young men present to enlist in the local company.
