Congress, and I And that the project of providing a depth oT eight feet In the Cape Fear river from Wilmington to Fayetevllfe, N. C, by means of locks and dams, is fully au thorized therein. - The bill provides for an appropriation of $10,000.00 for the beginning of the work, and auth orises the expenditure of $615,000.00 thereon, the difference to be appro priated from time to time in the Sun dry Civil bills as needed to prosecute the work.

Tbe River and Harbor bill with all items for our Congressional district Intact passed the- House late yester day evening. . ' V H. L. GODWIN. (Kncloime.) Waterways Bill Pleases Much Satis faction Expressed over Its Various Provisions. : v ' , 4 "The friends of waterways are very much pleased with the rivers and har bors bill, introduced Thursday in the House, and this is specially true' of the officials of the rivers and harbors congress",; said Joseph EL Ransdell, a member of the House Committee and president of the national rivers and Harbors' congress. 'This organization has for several years advocated with all its power three distinct principles, which have been nearly, if not quite, realized in the bill:" ;.. . v i "First, that' appropriations for riv ers and harbors should be passed an nually Instead of triennlally, as In the past; -1 ' r ',, Second, That a definite fixed poll- cy of water way Improvement should be adopted and provision ' made for completing great projects 'within a reasonable term of years; and '- Third, That annual appropriations tor rivers and harbors should amount to fully $50,000,000.00. 7 ' Vf "The rivers and harbors committee during the preparation of the bill by a formal hnd unanimous vote decided that hereafter its bill should be annual, and everything possible was done to provide for that "Sufficient approprta tions for prosecuting work on many great projects were made for-only one year, and unless a bill be enacted for next year, all wori thereon will cease. It requires more, or less expenditure every year to maintain proper ondl- tions on navigable waters,, and main talnence for one year only is provided in the bill. : '. ' "The bill does not neglect any por tion of the , country, but makes fair provision for . all harbors and Con necting waters on the lakes, the Atlan tic, the gulf and the Pacific." .i .

C.,- My dear Major Hale: . . , Your, letter of recent date, received and would have had earlier, acknow ledgement but for. the heavy accumu tion of correspondence, etc., as a re sult' of my absence while In North Carolina. This together with the Ill ness of Mr. Watts since my return and the absence on account of Illness of Captain Ashe, has made it Imposs ible for tne to give as prompt atten tion as I would, like to my correspon dence. . -' - ) r, '.":'' wil- ' ; ' , I regret that the House Rivers and Harbors Bill carries only $10,000 for the Upper.Cape Fear, I have prepar ed an amendment which I Intended to Introduce Saturday, but as towe, was no session of the Senate that day, was compelled to delay Us Introduc tion until today, appropriating' the full amount! ($616,000) recommended by th engineers as necessary to com plete the eight-foot project from Wil mlngton to Fayetteville. I am not quite sure that I can secure an appropriation quite so large as this, although I think I can, but falling In that, I feel quite confident I shall be able to secure as much as will reason ably be ru'rd to carry on the work expeditiously until another River and Harbor Bill is passed, or, I may be able to secure an immediate available appropriation of one-half with an au thorization for the balance which would practically.be the same, as se curing an appropriation for tbe whole amount . . J . , .' All of the members of the sub com mittee who visited North Carolina were greatly pleased, with their trip. They were especially appreciative of the hospitable and courteous treat ment they received in your thriving and progressive city. Thanking you for tue copies of your paper and for the excellent write-up of our visit to Fayetteville, as well as for the Information contained in your letter, I am, '--.;,: " i" Very truly yoUrs, ; " F. M. SIMMONS.'; The Cape Fear Left a Lasting Imp res- Mr. H. E. C. Bryant, the Washing ton correspondent of the Charlotte Observer says in that paper: "All eyes will be on the Pork Bar rel until It has been through the Sen atethrough the conference commit tee and back to uie House, and put on the books.' The cash is- what counts. ,'.." 'Maj. E. J. Hale is coming in for some Just praise In connection with the upper Cape Fear project No man has labored longer, more per sistently, and more loyally than he. He made a good impression here on his last visit and deserves all the credit given him. 'The committee of the waterways commission that trav eled the State with Senator Simmons some days ago was delighted with the Cape Fear region. ; The good citizens of Wilmington and Fayette ville put the big pot in the little one. But above all, the river, with lt high, banks, was the chief attraction. In the minds of those experienced river Congressmen the Cape Fear left a lasting impression." ' .' PRI80NER3 WHILE ON TRIAL ' Marry Without Knowledge of the Court A rather unique thing, and " one which we suppose never happened be fore, occurred in "Squire Overby'a court Friday afternoon. A young negro couple, (in trial for living to gether, without having been married; were actually married while the trial was in progress, and the Magistrate did not know it :v-::''-'-:C- ' About three weeks ago Percy Wal ker, aged 30 years, and Rena . Wad dell, aged 15 years, both of Flea Hill Township, ran away, together. Since then they visited various places, in cluding Wilson, Lilllngton and Dunn. They were arrested at a little place Wednesday and "'brought " to Fay. ettevllle and lodged, in Jail, where they Spent the night- They were tak en out .Friday afternoon, and car ried before 'Squire Overby for triaL The trial had hardly" begun wren they asked the Magistrate to let them hold consultation with their lawyer and some friends. , This the court did and the party adjourned to a corner of the room. The supposed consul tation was in fact a marriage cere mony, perforated so quietly by 'Squire Colin McRaehat only the party In the corner knew what was going on, When it was over 'Squire Overby was In formed of it and could not De con" vlnced that such a thing had happened right under his eyes until the proof of It was produced. . . ' He Insisted on finishing the trial, however, '. with the result that both bride and groom were bound over to court in the sum of $56 each,-which they gave. To Marie Hlstorlo 8ltes. . .

GREAT NEWS FOR FAYETTEVILLE Mr. Pence's Washington telegram to the Raleigh News and Observer of Monday is as follows: - '..?'';'$'.

' , ' ... ' , (By Thomas J. Pence.) -. i Washington, D. C, Feb. 2fl. The Senate Committee on Commerce adop ted today the amendment to the House Rivers and Harbors bill, ap propriating $616,600 for the comple tion of the Upper Cape Fear project b as to obtain a depth of eight feet of .water between Fayetteville and Wilmington. ' One hundred thousand dollars of this sum Is made lmmed-' lately available, for the 'purchase' of sites for locks or . any other necessary expense to be Incurred, and the Sec retary of War is authorized to make contract ' or -contracts," - for the amount needed to secure eight feet depth of water, .which 'Is the full amount recommended to complete the project. Under this amendment the Secretary may make contracts and the work may be finished during the pres ent year. - .;' 1 :.-'"' . Great Credit Due 8enator 8lmmone. It Is needless to state that the action of the commerce committee was taken at the instance of Senator Sim mons, who is a member of the com mittee. ' Too much credit cannot be given him in this connection. As soon as the senior senator ascertained that the House bill only carried j a ten thousand dollar appropriation tor the project he determined, if possi ble, to get the full amount asked by the engineers who made the survey." The appropriation must be accept ed by the Senate, but both the North Carolina senators ' will be on hand fighting for Its' retention, if neces sary. ": "': It will be remembered that Senator Simmons had incorporated ' in the River and Harbor bill of 1907 an amendment exactly similar to this r' the inland waterway from Pamu oo Sound to Beaufort Inlet This, amendment made Immediately avail-, able $200,000 and authorized the Sec retary of War to contract for the full amount necessary, to-wit $550,000, to complete this, project" Under the au thorization the Secretary of War at once made contracts for the comple tion of the work and the canal will be open for navigation some time dur- ng the coming summer.- .That Is, the work will be completed between river and harbor bills. ' ' " The senator's Idea is to take one project and finish it and he says that he sees no reason why the Cape Fear project under his amendment shall not be nearing completion before an other rivers and harbors bill Is passed. Maj. Hale Worked For It The action of the Senate In mak ing the full appropriation tor the canal scheme - is a big. thing : for Fayetteville. - It will result in , that city being made the basing point for freight rates, a fact, so clearly pre sented by Maj. E. J. Hale, and will put the greater portion of the' people of North Carolina oh - equal . terms with, the people of other seaboard states so far as freight rates are con cerned. No man has worked harder for the canal scheme than Major Hale,' and It will always" be looked upon as a monument to his efforts. ' A letter of Saturday night's date from' Senator Simmons to Major Hale stated that he would accomplish on Monday lust what he has done. Obs. REAL ESTATE TRANSFERS.

Fellow Democrats: - I take thlt, opportunity to announce to you that I will be a candidate before the Democracy of Cumberland County in the approbating campaign of this ear for the office of Register of Deeds of said county for the next ensuing term, subject to the will of the ma jority of the Democratic voters of said county for the next ensuing term, sub ject to the will of the majority of the Democratic voters of said county ex pressed through their organization by whatever method they desire to speak, whether it be by "Legalized Primary" or the time honored custom of Town ship, Precinct and County Conventions, which have prevailed for years past in the selection of our County nominees, and which I will make bold to say: that in my personal opinion Is the safest policy tor our party still to pur sue in the selection" of its county offi cials. . You will doubtless remember that I was a candidate seeking promotion at the hands of the Democratic, party for this worthy and honorable posi tion during the last campaign. I was late making up my mind to enter that contest so late that I found many of my personal friends who were will ing to aid me in that campaign with their personal support were handicap ped, by previous promises to my wor thy competitors in that contest, who had entered the field In advance of me. That being my first announcement for any political preferments at the hands of my fellow Democrats, (being my first and only ambition to fill public office of any kind) , it may readily be seen , that I was easily , defeated.' by the present incumbent who had the advantage of the acquaintance and support that sev eral terms of faithful and efficient ser vice would naturally give to any in cumbent of any pubUo office. But notwithstanding the disadvan tages with which I entered the contest I had the 'honor to be the second strongest candidate in the field, being defeated only by Mr. Walker, the. pres ent incumbent (between whom and myself the most cordial relations of personal and political friendship has ever, and still exists.) ' I do not ' know who will ' may ' be ' my opponents for this honorable and worthy trust, but I do know this: that I shall seek this preferment upon my own personal and political merits in the approaching campaign, aB I did in the past one, and not upon the de merits of any opponent I may chance to have whomsoever he may be. I fully realize and appreciate the fact that this together with aU other elective offices, is an office that be longs to no individual or set of In dividuals but to the people, and that while the people are entitled to the best possible service that can be ren dered them In this or any other pub lie office, still they have a right to entrust whom they please, in their good judgment to give them that kind of service; and if perchance they should make a mistake in their selec tion, In their own good lime they will speedily correct it. ; Entertaning these views, as I do, and always have, and having more con fidence in the expressed will of the whole than in the will of a few, if I am again aereatea,.i wm now grace fully to the result and aid as I' did before, to help swell the majority of my successful opponent whomsoever he may be, against the onslaught of our political enemies, the trust bur dened, tariff, ridden, graft begotten, Republican party. j I respectfully solicit your support ' F.
