A ten-year sentence for a coll blooded premeditated murder is rath er light, but that ia the finding in the case of the unfaithful wife and home wrecking brother over at Williamston There is some encouragement in the matter of enforcing the anti-spit ting law . A city authority reports that he actually saw a man walk to the edge of the sidewalk and ex Dec tormte in the gutter. , It is funny after you find yoursel nd get back home, but those who have been lost in the woods, and have had to spend the night, can sympa thize with Kinston's sportsmen, w:io recently lost their way in the bram bles a few miles from the city. 1 Nine miles of trenches filled wiUi dead and dying as the result of one day's carnage. Can a civilized man, who has not actually gazed on sue terrible scene, have any conception f What it is? And still the countries lighting are civilized and accredited Christian nations. 1 Secretary McAdoo says the banks have it in their power to relieve the situation, and he promises to endeav or to see if it is not possible to make them loosen up. Mr. McAdoo is the peoples' friend, and there has been no hint that he was a tool of the Wall Street or financial clique, since he has been a member of the cabinet. 1 The crowded condition of Kinston's f i ' city schools is a most encouraging in dication, but a very vexing problem for the school authorities. When the new buildings are completed the con gestion for this season, at least, can be taken care of, but it appears that more room will have to be provided for next year if the growth is as pro nounced then as it has been since last term. Virginia has been very liberal with the liquor forces in the matter of time to dispose of their goods. Two years it would appear is an unreasonable de lay in putting into effect laws, which tf manifestly so desirable to the lar , gr part of the citizen of the com monwealth. The antia should not be mllowed to lose sight of the tremend ous vote against liquor in the interim of two years, for they'll be trying to ring in the "time worn" excuse that public sentiment is not in favor of a strict enforcement of the laws, etc. There ia some chance for Villa to be appeased Without the necessity of further bloodshed, and every effort is being made to accomplish this much desired end. This paper has conted ed all the time that no factional lead er will ever be able to sit on the lid of Mexico successfully. A man who has not been a recognized leader of any of the many fuctions will have to be found to do the work before any permanent peace can Iks looked for. 1 If the diplomats of the several bel ligerents, whai have been sent to Am erica and other neutral countries to protest at the alleged atrocities of their enemies, would enlarge the scope of their protests and include the whole business, every man that has been 'killed and every hardship endured, they would not be exceeding the limit of civilization even if the rules of! in ternational warfare countenance aonxe of the outrages. The whole affair is terrible blot on a civilised world. .ClIJj;TAH.pjO TiUfVtVICE J i y v -h V iumorid In Kjjiston that t3e' . Mragement ' of1 the Norfolk -goufh ro has decided to take c'ofli f & trains new running fromGoMabqr t Ke-r tern. The train .flavin Km-! -ton about 5:30 a. m. for Goldsbora, where connections are made for a!i points in the north and west, and the night train arriving here at 11:15 ;. m- and which is one of the connect ing trains from the north and west, are the ones to be cut off, it is sail. The Chamber of Commerce of Kin ston has already taken steps to g3i the railroad officials to reconsider, if their order hag gone forth, and it is understood that the Chambers of New Berne and Goldsboro are doing the same. There should be no curta:: ment of passenger service in this sec tion. The connections afforded peo ple, living along the Norfolk South em, who desire to go north or west, are not now any too convenient, There is a long wait in Goldsboro, coming and going, for most of the travelers and the two trains, which i is thought are to come off, at presen furnish about the closest connections, both ways, that we enjoy. These trains, as a rule, are fairly well pat ronized, and it is to be hoped tha the rumor is without foundation. The railroads, like all other businesses, are affected by the war depression, but th train service of a community shouid not le curtailed if there is any posst bility to avoid it. Let the business men of Kinston, La Grange and oth er points along the line take immedi ate steps to enter protests and aok the railroad to give a little more '.irr.e to consider the matter. The report abroad is that the curtailment is to go into effect Sunday and if such it the case, some telegraphing will have to be done. WHAT OTHERS SAY VERY GOOD FOR THE GOOD Greensboro News: "The Virginia, vote gives additional point to Savoy ard's quotation from General Butler; 'This is a d d bad year for the wick ed!' " THE COMMONER'S ATTITUDE EXPLAINED Charlotte Observer: "Mrs. W. J Bryan has formally announced that she is an advocate of woman suffrage. And that is what has been at the back of the Colonel." FORWARD, MARCH Greensboro Record: "Virginia went dry yesterday. The next stop is Washington, the capital of the nation, It may be a few years before this is accomplished, but it is coming and shrewd observers, residents of Wash ington, realize it." RUSSIANS COMMENDED Durham Sun: "It must be said of the Russians that in the manycities they have bombarded and captured that they have spared life and prop erty as far as possible. The armis tice that was allowed at Presemysi was in marked contrast to the way cit ies in Belgium and France were treat ed." i world's WE DNT CHANGE THE CUSTOM Wilmington 'Star: "A girl will come down town and look out for pedestri ans, but if her beau is with her she expects hirn. to help her to stepAip on the curbing without the least possi bility of danger in climbing over an obstacle about five inches high. .There are times when she expects to be look ed after. There are other times when she doesn't have to be looked after." ARE THEY 5c PER APPLE Henderson Gold Leaf: "According Ui the esteemed Charlotte Observer, the "buy a tutrrel of apples' move ment has been started in Western North Carolina. "What's good for the surplus of the cotton farmer," says the Observer, "ought to be good for the surplus of the ifpple raiser." And so it ought. But from the buyer's standpoint, there is a difference. The cotton will keep and the apples won't, especially if the buyer happens to have a few youngsters about the house.". ENFORCING THE LAW Raleigh Times: "The voters of Vir ginia hftVing determined that liquo: shall not be sold legally in that State, must now see to it that the law is en forced. JThey. have" won a ereat na tH, but it is 'only one of many t&ai arms be waged, and public sent jnen; must be behind the officers In lower to make the cause triumph as ,Ut should. We cannot believe that Vfr ginians will forget their struggles soon; they must not forget that the law Is yet to be enforced. North Carolina ia glad that her neighbor to the north ha joined- her In a! irokl eausvNew fct.jhe good work go bn tnoyieaates.- j; y KI.STQ, BAPTISTS ABB? RIGHT Charity and Children -.'"Kinston is a great and growing town."' We IM.1 H in on thd brethrdH ;th 'father day and Tound the splendid $50,000 Bap tist temple well on the way. It is to be one of the most complete and beautiful church buildings in North Carolina, and to the other modem im provements, such, as a complete and elaborate Sunday school equipment four excellent auditoriums for the va riou agencies of the church and a fine swimming pool and gymnasium for the boys, will be added. Pastor Blanchard has the qualities of a great general and his people are standing by him as loyally as the tenth legion The Kinston Baptists are very weal thy people and, what is rarer, they are a willing people. They have nev er known their own power, but are beginning to feel it now." ; THE VALUE PLACED ON COTTON Wilmington Dispatch: "In this State many merchants have already decid ed to accept cotton in payment of debts, at J.Q cents per pound, and others have decided to accept it in the purchase of goods. The .movement to make the fleecy staple even more a matter ef currency is extending, and !s not confined to the South by any means. We notice in the fNew World that the principal of a school for young ladies offers to take cot ton in payment of tuition. This school-head, a Miss Mason, whose in stitution is located at Tarrytown-on- tho-Hudson, says that she has writ ten the parents of girls in the South ern States, who had planned for their daughters to enter college, that she will accept cotton in payment for the tuition. She will accept the cotton at 10 cents per pound, when delivered to any responsible warehouse near where the cotton is grown. "This and other moves in the same class, show how valuable is consider ed cotton, and how important to the material prosperity of the entire country it is deemed." DEER HUNTER-SHOT.

WRONG MEDICINE If your liver gets lazy you need a liver tonic, not merely a laxative for the bowels. Many people take a sim ple laxative when the liver gets slug gish rather than tafce catomel, which they know to be' dangerous. But a mere laxative will not start a slug gish liver. What is needed is a ton ic that will liven up the liver without forcing you to stay at home and lose a day from your work. You have such a tonic in Dodson's Liver Tone. Dodson's Liver Tone is all that is claimed for it because the druggists who sell it agree to hand back the money with a smile, to any person not satisfied with the relie Dodson's gives. Dodson's Liver Tone is a vegeta ble liquid with a very pleasant taste and is a prompt and reliable reme dy for constipation, biliousness, sour stomach and torpid liveN E. B. Marston Drug Company give it their personal guarantee. Large bottle of Dodson's LiVer Tone is omy 50 cents. For children or grown peo ple it is the ideal medicine. Try it on the guarantee. (advt.)
