The builder ha hi right, and unle he doe omethirg wcre than reported from Danville it isn't fair to make bologna of hsm and let the bird deg escape. o The Lightning Kod. We had concluded that the lightning rod and the lightning rod agent had dropped out. It it rare that you see a lightning rod thee days, but the last legislature pasted a law to the elect that each lightning rod agent muM py a Ikense of rise dollar, and fee goe into the treasury ol tr.e county, ine law provicc it. neS foasiif rn rollfci ihf fite dollar k if the old stem obtained where lightning rod agent wor ked a whole state il would cot methirg ia our nir.etyeight counties. In the old day, sar forty year ago. ou coulin'l look cut of the car window without seeirg every house adorned with the lightning rod. Oiurche and public building carried ihrm galore, and ome farmfr. those bam booiled by the agents, would have four or fie oa a small barn. The theory wa that the rod would attract the bghtninr and instead of knocking I he gable end o:T the bam the lightning would gracefully run down the rod and go into the ground. The gewgaw and filigree work were alwava t!ra, and Will Carlcton immortalized the lightning Kod Dirnr in a poem by lhat name. But inaimuch a you hardly eter ee a light risg rod we had concluded the myth wa exploded- In all candor a man ha about a I much need for a lightning rod cn hi houe a j he ha for a hip pocktt in prohibition trrri- lory.

I product will show what n fob 11. ; very lunny 10 u. ana w-c like 10 mink 4toul The Centonhip- We have just finisKcd reading that delight fully cntertaininr publication, the Congres sional Record; and the whole publication w as taken up with the running debate in tne en ate on press censorship. Mr. Overman, of North Carolina :had the bill in charge, and Mr. Hitchcock, of Nebraska, was prominent in discussion. The oil! pro po.ed that any person guilty of collecting news which might aid the enemy should be pun ished. It was Mr. Hitchcock! contention that a newspaper reporter often collected a gTeai deal of news that wasn't printed. He wanted to know why. if a reporter went to the olnce of the Secretary of War and there obtained r.cws that should not be printed and was not printed, he should be guilty or crime. .Mr. Overman explained it, a doxen others explain ed it, and on this inconsequential point several hours were consumed. . As we understand the bill, the President is to say what shall and what shall not be print ed, or. rather, what shall not be printed, and with this guide all is well. If a reporter inhis daily rounds, happens to secure some forma tion and doesn't print it. finds by looking at the President's orders that it must not be given publicity, the mere fact that he obtained or collected the information as a professional newspaper man and didn't use it or try to use l would leave him in the clear. Every man collects certain information, but he docn t use it. We may hear something about a man that might be slander, but if we do not repeat it or publish it no harm is done, so we are guilty ot nothing. , , That debate reminded u more of a dozen boys talking about something of which they knew nothing than anything wc have recently seen in print. However, it was printed, and each statesman was apparently trying to earn hi salary. But it was laughable. The truth is there should be a censorship, and a strict one. When a country is engaged in war no in formation should be furnished the enemy that would aid him. That is the long and the short of it. and in war times, while the Constitution cannot be annulled, the President can go a long way in walking over omc of h provi sions, and the country will sustain him. -o Old Glory seems to be quite popular across the sea. France and England have both run out the color and the star and stripes look well wherever unfured. o The Labor Agents. Ibor agents from the North arc taking away all our colored men; help is getting to be a proposition that i alarming. We notice lhal in Danville the citv council has pascd an ordinance raising the licen-e tax to $100 for Ihe labor agent, and the hope is in this way to stop the tide going north. The lice says: The New York agent were at work openly in the street of Danville yester day and could be seen addressing (iodic 4 of negroes. The police were called by telephone, but an officer ent to investi gate the ci remittance wa convinced lhat ihe agent were in their right in get ting negroes to leave ihis city. The extent of the deportation fro.ii thi cction became known today when it was learned that a few night ago Kores 01 negToel were taken from Lynchburg. On ihe train which took the hundred Danville , negroe north jesterday evening, and of which an account i found elsewhere, ihere were ihree solid carload of darkies recruited from noint farther south. Rail- I way ofiicial arc quoted a aying that fhe'v have long .itice been accustomed to f ccing the night irain pas through here . loaded with colored men for work up I north, and ihey say that hardly a night passes but that a carload here. The negro 1 induced to go .North because t.f ihe promise of better wage than paid here, and then the agent generalh till. him with fear, appeal lo hi pride, andf ask him if he nam to stay in a country where be is liable m ) linrhrrl Sinir tiiiiii- ncit vv rouied from I ihe Columbia State an article on thi line, and I it wa the Mate concluion mat tne wuu men I vho have lynched the negro arc rciKn$ible I ia a great meaure for hi cxcxlu. However ; lhat may be. thai there U a painful scarcity of j labor wc all know, and with ibe war coming on the IixkI proportion grow more alarming. 1 And set that hitching lot on West Gaston .land there in all it glory. Why not ed it out of the way, eten if it Icntc a hole in ihe ground? -o Mr. Bryan Pursues John Barleycorn. Mr. Bryan gitc it out that he i just aboui 10 start 011 a new campaign against John Bar ic) com. holding that a a war measure wc mul conserve our grain, and that the govern ment hould, while the war is on, stop the manufacture of all distilled liquor?. There is argument in what he proposes. Rusia found that whiskey was harmful, a did France and England, and now that a shortage of food stuff i on Mr. Bryan will have little trouble in showing the people what they should clo. We notice in the estimate of the Secretary of ihe Treasury thai it i figured that some eteral million dollars will come from the whiskey tax. and inasmuch a the question of raising the money to finance the war seems a puzzling one many Congressmen will doubt- ! Ins.!! that r hnulil have t hi c hlrw-kfl money to help pay the freight. But if the pco- The .onrriMion advocates tiil believe lhat ihey will win out. The lawmaker "are uf against a proposition.

Of course the conclusion of many is that these men who rushed to the JSer of deeds office to secure papers for ma?rifge were slackers, but we TO d'"e Iicve that. All the months of all the years show that men and women get married Be cause a small per cent, of men took advantage, as they supposed, of the married man s prm fegi to eSpe wir and got married we must ogt conclude that every man getting married these days is doing it to duty. The order sent out by the War De partment to the effect that the mzn who Jhas gotten married since war was declared would be treated the. same as a single man hasnt, so far as we have noticed, stopped the rush for the license. There have been .scores of men who had already enlisted married before they assumed their new duties a little ro mance, maybe, but nevertheless true love. It is the world's way to question the mo tives of most men. Let a man start something for the betterment of the race and some low browed fellow will declare he is doing it for his own self-exploitation. Let a man give fifty dollars to the needy poor and some man there is-to say that it was done for advertising pur poses. Let a live wire do many things and his motive is at once questioned, whereas the citi zen is sincere and honest in what he docs. Those who have deliberately rushed their marriages in the hope of escaping the soldier s duty will not escape, and, now this is known, we nape the manly man who walks up with his Dulcenia del Toboso and asks the parson to tic the silken cord will not hereafter be called a slacker. He is a hero. o That ball game was so one-sided that it looks like it should be made unanimous and Greensboro sKould withdraw while her credit i 50 exceptionally good. :-o A Picture Story. The Southern Railway Company, with the compliments of President Fairfax Harrison, sends us a book concerning the floods of last July. The pictures in it were taken when the flood was at its highest, and most remarkable pictures they are. The Southern prints this book to show the condition of the tracks and railway property during the floods showing that had not the Southern been equippedf with money and men the whole South would have been without transportation facilities for many months. In fact, there was so much desolation, so much wreckage, that it looked like a hopeless task. But the men in the em ploy of the Southern were capable, hopeful, and they went to it. Night and day they worked intelligently, and it didn't take long to restore order from the chaos. While there arc on every hand ample evidences that the Southern is" one of the greatest systems of railways in America, this book, just issued, carries convincing testimony that there dould be no obstacle too great for this concern to overcome. Those who have received the book will treasure it. It is history and a history lhat should have been written. O T If any man dares to pull down the American flag, shoot him on the spot. That was the lan guage of the immortal John A. Di:, and again it will be the proposition in this country. o The True Spirit, lolin Wanamakcr, the greatest merchant of the world, read the President's message ana called together all his people in his two stores in New York and Philadelphia and then sent this message to the President: Wc place not only our. business institu tions but ourselves as a unit for any and every service which will aid you to carry out your plans at this momentous hour. Wc rededicate to our country afresh all the forces and resources we have for .service in any direction personally, cor poratively and collectively for which wc are qualified. The above is the kind of patriotism that as Msts in setting the fires burning. Wanama kcr is as rich as he can be ; he has wonderful organization and can be of great help. Looks like thingtwere coming but they are coming in a snail trot. Maybe when about a dozen more U-boats shoot the mizzen mast off the American fleet something will be doing worth, while. If E. P. Wharton goes to war, what will be come of our fly-swatting campaign? In that duty Colonel E. P. proved a warrior who got result. High Treason. We had expected nothing but patriotic utterances from Colonel Sam Farabee, of the Hickory Record, but he puts himself in bad by writing- printing and circulating this trea sonable utterance: Oh, what joy it would be to succumb to spring fever. Think of that. Just as we were about to enlist in the army; just as we were about to. plow up an acre of ground and plant some thing; just as we were getting ready to raise a regiment of boy scouts, to have such a sen tence hurled at us like a bursting bomb from .a U-boat well, it is time for men who dis seminate such thoughts to be apprehended. And had Sam kept still wc would have missed the spring fever this year and never thought about it. Now wc are all in. o Patriotism At High Tide. Down in a Georgia county ihe farmers are all going to put flags on their plows. A cjim mittce has been appointed to .furnish the flags and Oir1 Glory will wave in the fields. This is something novel but why not the stars and stripes on a plow as much as on a pole over the house? On your life, it is the thing to do and Georgia sets the pace. o ' Another man guilty of something is a South Carolina weather prophet who insists that we will have a severe freeze the 9th of May. He, too, should be shot on the spot. o ' And still there is no real reason why this could not be made the Carnation Citv. ; Durham Again Happy. '''.Durham has had another election, and the proposed' change of city government Was knocked higher than Mr. Gilderoy was sup. posed to have flown his kite or at an alt'. tude greater than Mr. Haman hung his bacon as recorded In Holy Writ. ' Durham wants no monkey work. She wants no filigree fixings on things temporal, and in a spiritual sense she doesn't ask a gen! eral election to help her out. The City Man ager was quite the thing for the Bull City, but not quite the thing for some of those who might want to takea hand. The voter didn't understand that with a City Manager the management was in the voter's hands. That wasn't discussed. The election has been pull ed, all was quiet, and no city manager will obtain. Personally we regret this. We have always been a believer in the City Manager proposi. tion, and we wanted to get a short range view of its workings. Perhaps Durham didn't un derstand what we wanted, or she would have adopted the Manager in order to satisfy us. However, there will be another election in Durham. Nothing is ever settled there. Al ways, and forever there is something doing, and we still have hopes that one of these days they will have a City Manager and show the state that it is quite the thing. Charlotte adopted the Commission Form. Charlotte , has so long had the only exclusive three-ring city council under one tent that she was getting jealous of it herself, and conclud ed to throw off the tent and get in under one ring. And, after all, the one-ring circus is best. And a City Council is nothing but a circus. Charlotte takes on the Commission Form in preference to the Aldermanic Form, and perhaps one of these days she will go a step further and. have a City Manager. - That is what Greensboro will have some time. The Commission Form is so much better than the aldermanic form that most all are satisfied with it, and the theory is that Managerial form is so much better than anything else that one of these days our people in wild acclaim will demand it. Until they do, however, we will manage to get along. If the underpass is finally settled and the depot built, even then there will be some peo ple who will want lo move the whole bloomin' thing. . o -: ' As Hurley Sees It The Salisbury Post- printed in a town which boasts no morning newspaper, has this edito rial, which is worth reading : On the streets, in the homes, every where it is more and more noticeable that the afternoon paper is getting the most of the big news first. The afternoon paper is not getting all of the big news first, but the afternoon paper is getting the greater portion of the big news items the day be fore the morning papers. ' This is espe cially true of thefwar news reports from the European field. The difference in the- time works exactly to the benefit of the afternoon. .papers, and the biggest items of the world war have appeared in the after noon papers first. Make the comparison. Read the afternoon paper that has the Associated Press dispatches and compare the best papers at hand the next morning to ee if it is not true that the first news is'thc afternoon news. The reading public is coming more and more to rely on the afternoon paper for its first information. The only thing that is lacking is a slush of details that comes . with another twelve hours' time. The fact that there is a difference of four hours in New York and London time nves the afternoon paper the chance to print all the doings of Europe the same day thus beating the morning papers twelve hours. The after noon paper is essentially the home paper ai;d in many places this is" understood. . O- ; - ? War Maps. You can see a war map in almost any paper, but the average man doesn't stop to study it. and if he did the changes are so frequent that he can't keep up with his geography. One thing, however, is certain if the French claims are true, the Germans are being re pulsed, and atthe present rate it isn't. going ' to take long to change things. Those who are big in finance and who perhaps know more about things than the ordinary layman, of whom we are one, tell us that September first will see the close of the war. If it is to be over by that time Uncle Sam will hardly get his hand in before it is declared off. Here is hop ing that it may. stop. Here is regretting tb it was necessary to begirt it. : 0 ; A Million. Negroes. T. W. Thurston, a colored man of Kinston and one holding a responsible position, asserts that there are one million colored men in the United States who are only waiting to be asked to join the army ready, he says, to do service. Thurston is urging the colored peo ple to eliminate all possible waste, to be ready for the call, and he is of opinion that they "will make America proud of her colored citi zens or report to God the reason why." That is the right kind of talk, and no doubt Thurs ton is well informed. , . , o- ' The War Stories. There is something rather contradictor about the war stories. Whether all tne French are claiming just now is true we do not know. Germany . says they are lying that the victories they claim are dreams. One thing is certain, if what the allies now claim is true Germany can't hold out much longer With all kinds of guns being captured, wit" thousands tteing killed every day, if 01Vt take your pencil and a piece of psnrr t Jr take long to figure the finish of the German empire. But perhaps we should take these storieswith a few grains of allowanced rer' haps. the French are attempting to encourage Uncle Sam to get excited. v In themeantime Mr. Bryan hasnt becj given ,a musket.
