Democrats Carry State V ' By Big Vote ---- . . - The greatest Election in the history of the American nation came to an end Tuesday at sundown and resulted in an over whelming victory for the Republican party. Messrs. Harding aad Coolidge, the candidates for President and Vice-President, won b&an enormous popular and electoral majority and the Senate and House of Representatives were also captured by the Republicans by substantial majorities. Only that portion of the United States known as the "Solid South" went Democratic, .in fact it was a Republican landslide and while it was expected J)P? the Republicans would win, their enormous victory sur prised them considerably and absolutely stunned the Demo Ncrats. The woman vote contributed to Republican success in , the nation. ' North Carolina remains in the Democratic -column but by what majority is not definitely known at this writing. The Republicans have undoubtedly increased their vote in the State. In North Carolina the woman vote influenced by the cry, of negro or something else went against the Republicans. Tennessee is xlose and perhaps Republican. Carteret county rolled up a substantial majority for the Republican ticket, every man on it being elected by a majority estimated at not less than 200 and Sheriff Thomas and D. M. Jones going probably to 300 or more. The tabulated vote will be given, In next week's issue of the Beaufort News.

Ordinarily, however, it will not be necessary, nor will it be wise to use lime if, there is no rotation of crops practiced in which legumes come in at frequent intervals. Where one is growing cotton and corn alone continually on the same land without any effort whatever . to build up the organic matter and nitrogen of the soil, 4t will not usually be very necessary to use. lime. It cannot be stated too emphatically that the latter plan is a short-sighted policy and one that we have .practised too far to great an xtent in this state, and as a re sult .have not maintained our soils generally in as profitable a produc tive .state as we might have done had we grown, and handled proper ly, leguminous crops in rotation with the main crops. A Rational SysUas Where small grains, cotton or Tcorn are grown with the idea solely of getting the most out of the soil, far .the time being, and without an effort whatever at building up the soil, .lime is not nearly so essential as where a rational system of Crop rotation is beting practiced. In other words, where one wishes to boild up his soiJr lime usually becomes a ne cessary material to use, on most of our North Carolina soils, in order to secure the best results. A good time to use lime is in the fall, and as an initial application um from one to one and a half tn., br0dc"t carbonate of nere one has turned in all or part of a e-rowth - "f ""J""'; owpe. or clover at , Una time of the year, a good plan w ue w 'pp,y lne ,,me ,Itr tn I na at ltil -. a.

In a case like this, lime j may go on before the first disking or I after the first where more than one I good disking is given. Where, for any resson this plan cannot be fol lowed, the lime can be put on later j after the crop is up and growing.

Now Ready For Occupancy. The Beaufort Banking and Trust Company1 began moving into their new building several days ago and are now about installed. The interi or, of the building is not entirely fin ished, some of the marble work is yet to be done as well as some other finishing- up, but for practical pur poses the banking rooms are ready for business and they are a model of convenience, comfort and .beauty. This building will compare favora bly with anything in the State in the banking house line. Elsewhere - in the News a picture of the new structure' can be seen. , Like everybody else who has done any building in the last year or so, the Banking and Trust Company have experienced considerable de leys in gettirTg materials, workmen and so on. . The building has been in process of erection for over a year but the work, has been well done and so by not hurryinr too much no doubt better results have been se cured. The cosafort of the bank's employees and customers have been assured by excellent. light, heat and ventilation facilities. Rooms and desks for aatrens have been provi ded and nothing overlooked needful for conducting business promptly and efficiently. , The growth of the Beaufort Bank ing and 'Trust Co. since its organ ization thirteen vear ago has been I'pbenaminaL t It opened for business Ion Septipber the 18th, 1907 and j made its first report on December the third of that, year.

Washington, Nov. 2 (Special cor respondence) - Certain producers and manufacturers are reported as threatening to close , down their plants Until a recovery from the pres-. ent price decline has set in. Such men should not deceive themselves, there will be no recovery of a sub stantial nature.' ; The process that is " now taking place is one of deflation ' from the, excessive lvalues that the., war and Democratic Federal finan--ciers placed upon the -country. I may be attended by fluctuations; but ' the operation is an inexorable one - ' ind the final outcome is bound to be ' -lower prices that will stay. ' Furthermore, the 'stoppage of pro- duction in the hope thereby pf fore- 1 lng higher prices Is a form ef profi teering just reprehensibleias that of the man who corner any article,; ' of commerce and waits for, the pub-.'", lie to pay the price he demands. Snch a wan is profiteering .with la-o bor. In effect ho tells the people he . will permit hia employees to produce tt -when, he has been assured that their product will fetch a certain ' price, and not efore.' -Quite likely 'those .employees would prefer to accept a-'" sr'ght reduction in wages' rather than ' Vb laid off ejirely. , At .eny rate,," ; that is the course that should be fol- ; ; lowed, because wages, like othej.njk,,, , ces have got -to i -go through the ro- ' :es of deflation!.
