One consoling reflection 1 that W. J. Bryan, J. S. Carr, Josephus Daniels, Judge Clark, Buffalo Bill and other celebrities have not lived aud labored in vain. What little I have aald and writ ten has not been in aa acrimonious spirit; for men of honest convictions and exalted patriotism have opposed woman suffrage. Some were prompt ed by a mistakeu idea of chivalry, while others never studied the ques tion, but are "agin" any departun from time-honored customs and tra ditions. These same people would have opposed steamboats when Ful ton had a vision of more rapid water transit, would have ridiculed the dream of Columbus, of Morse, of McCormick; or the philanthropy of Dorothy Dix.

W. Brsbhaiu, of The Hermitage. Olar. S. C.. believes that the end sought, which is the production of black cotton, is in sight. The fol lowing account of Mr. Brabham's work is taken from the Savannah Morning News: Mr. Brabham has sent Ihe Morn ing News four samples of cottons of color which sustain his claim that he has successfully produced t hese cot tons of exireunely fine fibre. The four samples shade from light green to dark brown. He says that there has never been a softer or finer fibre than the dark brown sample and that cloth woven from such cotton would make a fabric that would surpass iu softness any textile material yet developed. Four years ago Mr. Brabham sent his first specimen of cottons in colors to the Morning News and to the Savannah Cotton Exchange. He says now that he has never abandoned the ideai of producing cottons of that class but for two years he made no progress, the crop each year having been destroyed before reaching ma turity. This year great care was ex erased in the few plants of this rotton that he grew. When the plants open up In full Mr. Brabham thinks that other colors besides the tour he has now may appear. Luther Burbank wrote Mr. Brab ham that he would undertake the Job of producing black cotton for a million dolUrs. Mr. Brabham says that a glance at one of his samples shows that he is in a fair way to produce if at a much lower cost thin a million. He says further that he Is sure he would have produced black cotton this year had not a package of blue or tinted or llnled cotton Imported from India miscar ried. Mr. Brabham has a Hindu botanist of Delhi gathering specimens of hi cottons of colors In India, and this bptauist has located blue, grey anlj i light prtfU." fleTioflee tl have another consignment of seed from India in the near future, and is also hoping to get the colors growing In Tern. It is, however, he says, very difficult to get foreign seed because so many careless or dishonest per sons handle the packages In their Ion? journey. Mr. Brabham has also sent three spe -linens of com in three colors, n glance at which, he says, should prove that black corn will be his next. year. By crossing red and blue run will in two years, he claims. dvlop black corn. This being true. Mr. nrahham argues that by crossing the blue Indian cotton with the darker shades which he ha dc v. Inner! from white cotton he Is bound to obtain the long sought black cotton. Not only cotton nnd corn b'H al most any other crop. Mr. Prahluim ffi'ls convinced, can be produced In colors. Although he does not evpect himself to reap the commercial profits of his discovery, lie i? content In the satisfaction "f believing that he is l""iucath!ng to posterity a cont rlbn i in of enormous value in scientific knowledge. aa 1S and new crop hulls were re ported to-day at $7.50 per ton.

As a result of every conflict; es pecially one of such stupendous di mensions; many sleep the sleep that knows no waking. To successtully prosecute such t gigantic undertaking required men of heroic mould who band their bosoms to the on-set of the furious Hun; the man who would contribute the sinews of war; the husbandman who would toil in the heat of the day that patriots might eat; the artisan who help provide transports, ordinance, guns of smaller caliber, clothing, tents; and the coal that furnished power to float the throbbing maga zines of death.

Beginning in Constantinople, and F.ndlng in Washington With Three Deaths Came to North Carolina. A true love story that reads like fiction is entwined In the history of the three Greeks recently killed in a down-town boarding house in Wash ington, according to George An thony, of Lumberton, second cousin of Jean and Kathryn Odiscus, two of the Greeks killed, and who says he knew all the Greeks when they lived lu Constantinople. Tbeo Kukos was a servant in the Odiscus home, beginning work there when a mere lad, according to An thony. The Odiscus family was one of the oldest and most prominent in Thrace. There were three children iu the home two boys and a darsh ter Kathryn, Dan and Jean. When the Balkan war broke out the Turks raptured and destroyed all the prop erty of the Odiscus family along with i hat of hundreds of others. Through fear that the only daughter might be captured by the cruel Turks, an effort was made to send Kathryn, ac companied by her brothers, to An, er ica. Just as Kie three we.e ready to sail for America the World waf brokv out. Dun managed to continue the trip to America at that time. Je.iu and Kathryn were held In France and stient four vears there. They came to America in 1918. It was while serving the Odiscus fatii!!v. and yet while lie was a lad that Kukos fell desperately In love with Kathryn, his master's daugh ter. Social lines barred Kukos from marrying the idol of his heart In the native land. Learning that Kathryn had come to America, the land far famed for Us democracy, Kukos fol lowed. He dreamed that in this good land the social barriers would be tviiuail nml th:it ha would he free In 'pay court to her who in the land of !ils nativity Wiis fr his superior In caste.

The Insur ance Department for tie; past two weeks has been much pestered by complaints from people, many letters complaining that they have been "wiudled" etc., by salesmen selling stu.k of all kinds, with assurances that they may expect to soon 'strike it rich." Deputy Commissioner Wade, who has to look arter all this, de clares, the department Is doing all it can to help people, but it can't help ! people who absolutely ruluse to take lis advice about such mailers, and as soon as they get bit write about It. But yesterday, he had conference with a Wake county lawyer, who In behalf a Wake county client, reputed to be worth fifty thousand dollars, principally In real estate, was seek ing help. This man had QUts'andiug, notes totalling one hundred and ten thousand dollars given to five differ ent stock salesmen for five kinds of stock, and some of the notes were past due, not a dollar of dividends yet paid on any kind of "Investment." The schedule of Investments, for nearly all of which notes were given as presented by the lawyer, was as follows: Klectrlc Railway slock, $25,000; Hospital stock, f 25,000; slock, $18. U00.

But here is a single Individual, well-to-do, living in the shadow of the Stale Insurance De partment, and In the same county as the other victim, who not only buys all kinds of stock but buys it liberally and gives notes recklessly. Deputy Wade is much Interested In the move ment In New Bern and Greensboro to have official law enforcement aid in ihe blue sky security field. He says he doesn't wish to tire the public 'with department warnings and plead ings not to sign notes ror any stork under the sun any further. But he wants help from the business Inter ests of the State to save some people from their folly. Central Methodist Church Rev. John W. Moore, Pastor. 10 a. m. Sunday school, conduct ed by Trof. R.

"At present there Is very little de mand for our Southern cotton seed oil." said Mr. Bridewell, "due partly to the fact that there has been a large Importation of Oriental oil and very little demand for compound lard for export. We are told that there Is to day on hand In Chicago five times the amount of lard we had on hand this time last year, and from presen' indications the market for cotton seed products will drag until some export demand comes In."
