TUESDAY, AUGUST 29, 1916.
The country, is now- face to face
with the practical centainty of a dis
astrous railroad Strike which threat
ens to criple every industry on the
continent and bring untold incon
venience to everybody. Should the
strike continue indefinitely, much
suffering is bound to be one its
results. Today it looks as if the
strike is sure to come and we all
might as well begin governing our
actions and making our plans ac
coramgiy, witnout wasting very
much valuable time in discussing the
merits and demerits of the points
at issue between the railroads and
their employes. In the event of a
prolonged strike disaster will cer
tainly come to many innocent per
sons, and public sentiment will even
tually place the responsibility where
it belongs.
Woodrow Wilson has had to deal
with more, critical situations than
any other . president who has ever
occupied the White House with pos
sibly the single exception of Abra
ham Lincoln, and he has handled
each and all of them with superb
skill and great wisdom. But the
grave issues which have now arisen
between the railroads and their em
ployes may prove too much for
him as they would for any other man
in , his position. If the disastrous
strike comes, which now seems more
than probable, the fault cannot be
laid to President Wilson, for he has
sjdone everything in his power to
ajfert it and will continue to do so
the last hour.
JUDGE F. D. WINSTON'S DEMOCRACY
Letter from J. H. Matthews, Democratic Nom-
inee for House in Bertie County.
. Windsor, N. C, August 29, 1010.
In order to give your readers some
idea of the work and labor that
Francis D. Winston has done for
the Democratic Party in the last 26
years, I will simply point to his
record as a Democrat: f
1890 Canvassed Bertie County
and his .Congressional District for
the Democratic Party.
189S Member Democratic Judi
cial Committee and canvassed the
District..
1894 Member Democratic Con
gressional District Committee and
State Democratic Executive Commit
tee and canvassed the district and
other districts. Was member of both
these committees many years.
1896 Canvassed the State and was
nominated as Democratic District
Elector and canvassed both the Dis
trict and a large part of the State.
1898 State Organizer of White
Supremacy Leagues and Democratic
Club. Canvassed the State. Organiz
ed Democratic Clubs and Leagues in
every county in the State. Demo
crat elected to Legislature in Bertie
county.
1900 Elected to Legislature
Democrat, in Bertie and organizer of
Democratic Clubs. Canvassed -the
State. President State Organization
of Democratic Clubs.
1901 Appointed by Governor Ay
cock Judge of the Superior Court
and served until the end of his
the State for
by Democratic
for Lieutenant
term.
1902 Canvassed
Democratic ticket
Party.
1904 Nominated
Governor securing nearly a unani
mous nomination. Canvassed the
whole State.
1908 Canvassed the State for
Democratic Party.
1010 Again canvassed the State.
1913 President Democratic State
Convention. Unanimously nominat
ed as Democratic Presidential elec
tor at large and canvassed the State.
1913 Appointed United States
Attorney by President Wilson.
1910 Appointed Superior Court
Judge by Governor Craig.
He was for fifteen years a mem
ber of the State Democratic Commit
tee and assisted in preparation of
Democratic "Hand Books." He never
accepted a penny for his services and
never allowed the party to pay a
cent of his expenses and he has al
ways been one of the generous con
tributors to the Campaign funds. At
the instance of the National Demo
cratic Committee he has canvassed
repeatedly, at his own expenses, in
other States.
This is his record of services as
a Democrat to the people of North
Carolina.

There ? has probably not been a
time in the history of the Henderson
tobacco market when there was more
preparation on the part of local
warehousemen, buyers and all con
cerned for an auspicious opening and
a big season from beginning to end
as has been the case this time. With
what is genereally conceded to be
at least an average size crop, if
not better, and the prospects o.f good
prices . on all grades of tobacco, a
feeling of optimism pervades the en
tire community. There is the gener
al belief that prices are going to be
much better this year than they were
last, and they may be better than
in several years past.
Although the war has been in
progress more than two years, the
nations of Europe have this week
been declaring war on oneanother
just as if it were in its beginning.
Italy led off by declaring war on
Germany. Then Roumania took its
long expected tumble by declaring
war on Austria-Hungary, and Ger
many answered by a declaration of
war on Roumania. There may have
been other declarations of war dur
ing the week so far which escaped
our notice. These events have again
thrown Greece into a state of pur
turbation, and that country may jet
be drawn into the whirlpool.
For a genuine gully washer, trash
mover and toad strangler,' the down
pour of rain which came along late
yesterday afternoon has rarely been
equalled in Henderson. It was the
next thing to a cloud-burst, and for
a period of some ten or fifteen min
utes the rain descended almost in
sheets. Not within the past five
years have the streets suffered so
much from washing.
: Hail Storm at Louisburg.
! Louisburg, Aug. 29. Louisburg
and vicinity for a mile or more
around was visited Sunday afternoon
by a terrific hail, wind, rain and elec
tric storm. Growing crops were al
most totally destroyed. The cotton
and corn of S. S. Meadows, about a
mile from town, was completely rid
dled, and for hours after the storm
there were great drifts of hail stones
in places. Two of the giant oaks in
the college campus were uprooted.
The storm was fast and furious, last
ing only about -20 minutes, creating
great excitement. The stones were
as lartre as partridge eggs The
storm seems to have been limited in
extent to Louisburg and Immediate
-environs. .i r..:..'
