J. 8. Carr, life left to the veteran who as a beardless boy mirched with tee. "Iforawhlto civic hoiiors wiU npt come to bim., There Confederate soldiers In the public service,' and there are more that thirty-five thousand surviving. The friends of Gen eral Carr ask that yon confer upon him this htgh distinction; not simply because be was a brave soldier, nor because he Is philanthropist, nor because his money has quickened Into activity our. Indus trial resources, nor because our charities and educational institutions have felt the wholesome impulses of his benefactions . but because to these have been added that Intellectual vigor and experlenc that will make him a wise colleague In tbe committee rooms In the . United States senate. ,: We have read of the Ingratitude of v states and peoples, of Belieamis laden with the spoils of conquest, begging an obolus from his dungeon, of the virtuous hissed from the forum, of the Illustrious Burke maligned after his arraignment of Warren Hastings, of Daniel ..Webster locked out of Faneull Hall after his retire ment from the cabinet of PiaeldentTyler, but happily these precedents have not been observed In North Carolina. Fifty-thousand electors said two years ago General Carr was their choice for the U. S. senata. Is h less worthy now than tbeu? Are the people disillusioned by some act Of perfidy he has done? Is he not the same patriot, statesman and philanthropist? Did he sulk when Lis rival, tbe Agamemnon of the party, borJ oH Its choli fcst honor?

It costs The Klnston Library ,225 a year for rent, librarian, fires and fire Insurance. Heretofore the money for these necessities has been raised by the women of tbe association and other wo men by plays, bazaars, and ice cream fes tivals. While . the ' women like to do these thiugs and always expect to do them, ltv Is a great strain to feel that they must be dons at certain times and it Is not right that the life of a benevolent insti tution of such, vital interest should,' be hazarded by being dependent on such things. It will of ten happen, ae it has happened this year, that circumstances will prevent the women: who hold the Library nearest and dearest from raising money by these means. " The responsibility of providing' the money has always fallen on the presi, dent, and this office baa alternated for tbe past five years between Mrs. W. C. Fields and Mrs. A. Oettioger, two very loyal,) very capable and very, public spirited women. ' Tbe.p resident, who wae elected last May, would not accept the office, and I being vice-president am serving fa one capacity or the other, not because I want . to do it, or becaneeH have time to do It, ' but because under ths circumstances, it le my duty. ' My term of office will expire the second Toesday In May, 1903. , If it Is impossible to secure another p.vsident, we will have to box burflfteea hundred dollars' worth of books and ' store them according to the provisions . of our constitution and by .law. Unless something is done,' we wilt OTObably face this situation, because the hofior of being elected president cf this association Is doubtful hnor, carrying with It ro prlT ileges but of bard work and self-denial. - It takes a stout beart to accept the anxiety of raising $225 A year when one does not know wb re a single dollar of it Is to eou.it trom. Wl ether ths Library shall staud or fall must be decided in the hearts of a mfficieiit number of men and women w ho Will pfc-dge them eel ves to Contribute that amount each year to the' association, , , - ... ', If the Library Is closed our community . will take a step back ward. " It does not mean to us whose minds, have attained theirrowth what it means to the men and women who will take our places when we are gone, 'the children of the town." It is our duty to give them an opportunity to develop their minds. Un- ' less they form the reading habit when they are young they can never form It, and their minds can never attain the same elasticity as if they bad. There are a large number of children who are subscribers to the Library and , there would be more if their parents would subscribe for them. They will have an opportunity to "do so In the near future, because the town will be . canvassed from end to end by the ladles of the association. Those who have no children will also have a chance to help. Every white person in Klnston hae the privilege of going to the Library, to use the books free of charge. To take them home coets one dollar for one year and fifty cents for six' months. ' '' ' " When you are solicited don't say that ' you will subscribe later, but that just now 'you must finish your fall sewing, that you have nj cook and have so much to do, that you have more books than yon can read in ten years, that you preler magazines and take mors than' yon read. We've beard tbBt before, and . besides that Is not the point. Tbe point is, a public Library Is a necessity, we must have one and the co-operation of your dollar Is needed. . Sybil Hitt.
