He opposed the strong ef fort made to drive out the state banks by taxing them to death; and he voted to give honest debtors the. benefit of a homestead forty years before such a measure could finally be enacted. Burns was cer tainly a forward-looking man! After his legislative service was ended, he received an appointment from the government as keeper of a lighthouse, and in this service his latter vears were spent. He died in 1850 and was buried under the great live oaks at his Beaufort home, where his monument has upon its top an ancient cannot which tradition says was once a part of the armament of the "Snapdragon." If Carolina had a hall of fame surely the statue of this bold sea farer and courageous legislator should be one of those placed therein, for he rendered his state distinguished service both by land and sea.

What This Place Needs, Folks. Is A Few Good Ads In This NEWSPAPER Sailfish Running Off Cape Lookout Sailfish are running off Cape Lookout. First fish of the season, a 31-incher, was taken last week by Lieutenant A. T.' Moore's 12-year-old Tommie. This fish is be. ing mounted in plaster at the U. S. Fisheries Laboratory here. The second sailfish of the season was landed on Monday by Frank Webb of Wilmington, Delaware. He landed his fish which measured 7 feet and half from tip to tip while trolling with Capt. Bill Olsen, master of the cruiser Mary Lou. On the same day Morehead City boatmen raised three other sails. America's answer to the dicta tors is a declaration of national emergency.

Twn and a half vears aft er it was taken in net by Ja mie Styron, local commercial fisherman and sportsman's guide, a channel bass or red drum landed at Ocracoke Is land is credited with being the world's record of this species. Edward W. Bailey, acting chief, division of fishery biology of the U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service wrote news correspondent Aycocl; Brown in Beaufort to secure the ficures as to weight, length and girth measurements of the fish. Aided by Fred Stedman, Greens boro sportsman who spends part of his time fishing at Ocracoke and the person that recorded data about the fish shortly after it was taken and Mrs. Roxie C. Simpson, State Museum taxidermist who casted the replica's of the hugh ! fish for display in Raleigh and at the Marine Museum in Beaufort, it was determined definitely that the fish weighed seventy-five and half pounds, was 53 inches long and measured three feet around its girth, or the. largest part of body. . Previous world record channel bass taken in any method was landed back in 1902 off the New Jersey coast. It weighed 75 pounds. World's record for red drum taken with rod and reel was made in 1929 by Charles Beckman at Chincoteague, Va. His fish weighed 74 pounds. A 63-pounder landed by the late Dr. Dave Tayloe of Washington is the largest ever taken with rod and reel at Ocra coke and is believed to be the larg est ever taken with rod and reel along the North Carolina coast.
