It begins to look like Russia's
sympathy for the "little do?," Ser
via, was not needed, and just to think
the manifestation of that sympathy
is blamed with all the other entries
into the European war. Servia is,
from all account, puti it all over
her "big dog" opponent, Austria.

American paper are radically par

deliberations they can be relied upon
to pass the correct and just judg

endorsement of the Wilson adminis

in Mexico by the rabid stand-pat organs.

In the past week or tea. days there
has been a sdtldeTI outbreak of bur
glary and robbery1 In and about Kin
ttton. A bunch of crooks seem to
have come in from somewhere, and
the police have been unable to round
them ail up. Let the law-abiding
people, white and black, be on the
lookout for these culprits and co-operate
with the authorities in bringing
them to justice. There is often a ten
dency on the part of the negro popu
lation to shield desperadoes of their
own race. It should be borne in mind
that such protection given to an of
fender lays the protector liable as an
accomplice.
It is gratifying to all lovers of the
square dial when a court does a kind
"ness to some unfortunate, as was the
case in Superior Court yesterday,
when Judge laniels, after hearing
the story of a poor fellow who had
been in jail for several months under
suspicion, turned him loose, and the
jurors and spectators "shelled out"
for his benefit. The poor man had
done nothing more than try to sell
n old pistol in order to buy some
thing to at,'nd fh court did not
even require him to pay "his board"
for the time he has been feeding at
the county's table.

. Governor Craig is planning to en
list the Cotton States in a movement
for protection of the cotton crop and
to that end has invited the chief ex
ecutives of the various southern
states to send delegates to a confer
ence to be held in Atlanta on Sep
tember 3d. Favorable replies are
coming in. The spirit of co-operation,
which has been manifested in this
country since the outbreak of the
European war, is a most encourag
ing indication. The war has served
to unify the citizens of the various
belligerent countries, in a mighty ef
fort to protect their home land.-). In
fair America, where by the Grace of
God, and under the guidance of
great leader, we are at peace,

and woik for America, has apparent
ly superseded the antithetic spirit of
personal and individual agj;i andize-
nient, which has heretofore permeat
ed our citizens, our business institu
tions, our political parties and even
uv church life. Congress has for
gotten the petty differences of party
inos, at lea.-t for the time, and i.-:
responding to the needs of the coun-
ry with remedial legislation to meet
the conditions, which have been sud-
Icnly thrust upon us. There .seems
to be a determined desire throughout
the country to put shoulder to
houlder for the common good,
and if, as a lesult of the European
war, the leaders and masses of thi-:
ountry are brought closer togethei
n a full and hearty spirit of co-ope-
ation. can it not be truly said that
he misfortunes of those, across the

gan, praises President Wilson for his
position in regard to Mexico. The
Herald lauds the President for his
firmness in resisting the clamor to
attack Mexico, and compares his
course with that of Austria-Hungary's
arrogant and bullying position
toward Servia. The HeralJ says:
'But the Frsidtnt exercised a stay
ing and a steadying hand. We did
not go in. We have saved ourselves
the horrors, of war, and the long leg
acy of hate throughout Latin Ameri
ca which would surely have followed.
If the example of our own President

of the instructors were from War

TOO MANY JOHN BROWNS
CAUSES CONFUSION
AI L UNMINDFUL OF WAR.
Charlotte Observer: "Life in St.
Petersburg ia said to be going on in
the ordinary wnyf Russia's sise'and
agricultural aeif-sufficiency have al
ways rendered her immune against
effective attack, and a neighbor right
ing against odds at the other front
is certainly in no position to invade
her far."
THE FEE SYSTEM MIST (;0.
Nea and Observer: "The plan to
put deputy marshals on a salary ba
sis is commendable. The salary ba
sis is the sensible way of remunerat
ing men for their work. Give them
fair pay and if they don't deliver the
goods, get somebody else. That is
the plan that is followed in business,
and it is the safe and sane plan for
government employes."
FOR
CORRECT CLASSIFICATION
MORNING PAPERS.
Greensboro News: "The schools
this fall should discard all set pro
grams of history and geography
study. The history and geography
making that is being recorded in the
newspapers is so important and so
vivid that it should absorb that part
the curriculum. The morning pa
fhould be the textbook for every
class."

"Juhn Brown!" called Sulirito;
Shaw in Supeiior Court Wednesday, j
"He's here!" replied the sheriff. j
"You stand charged with aisauk ;
and battery and resisting arrest." ,
said the State's attorney, without !
looking at the prisoner at all. John
Brown's eyes budged, and the specta- J
tors were almost convulsed. The John '
Brown who trembled at the bar is
about nine years old and weighs not
much more than fifty pounds. He
has stolen several hundred dollars'
worth of goods from stores in the
past two months. Hia father deems
him incorrigible and wants him sent
to a reformatory.
John Brown's lawyer denied the:'
charge. '
The solicitor investigated the dock
et. "Selling whiskey" was the next
accusation against John Brown, and
the little black boy again wore a puz
zled look upon his face.
At this juncture defendant's coun-
sel arose and declared to his honor j
that John Brown wasn't guilty of as
sault and battery, resisting arrest, cr j
retailing, and stated the real facts in
the case.
It developed that there were three '
John Browns under indictment. The '
