The New Bern Sun isued a few
daya ago a very creditable "Fai
Edition," containing a thirty-two
page magazine section nicely gotten
up. Congratulations to Editor Dunn
and his assistants.
The Fayetteville Observer comes
to us with a fancy border "Progress
Edition," all filled up with good live
reading matter, and a plenty of the
kind of filler that helps the ex
chequer.
The Southern members of Congress
are making a mighty effort to fix the
fences back home by trying to induce
Uncle Sam to go in the cotton busi
ness. There is a smack of the "piny
politics" apparent in the filibustering
now in progress in Washington, which
is regrettable.
Monday begins the final lap of the
campaign and the orators and spell
binders will be abroad in the land to
a fare-you-welL Let the voters aval
themselves of the opportunities to
hear the issues of the campaign dis
cussed, and thus place themselves in
position to vote intelligently.
The ditches between Kinston and
Beulaville are on the "snary" order,

correctness of the statement.
King Albert seems to have the
atulY" that inspires the men in the
ranks to do their utmost, iff standi
on the fighting lines and tells those
who protest that "hii skin h of no

exactly true for his ileuth would
greatly depress his subjects ami per
haps mean their complete undoing.
President Young's idea is nit right
from the view point of the western
frontier, where they grow towns and
cities over night, and the lnrgp num
ber of people flocking to new places
is such as to make it hard to place
them in self-supporting positions;
but not so with Kinston and the enFt.
Every town and city in this section
can comfortably accommodate a few
extra worthy individuals and families.
Let Kinston not hide her candle under
a bushel nor turn n deaf ear to inquir
ies from desirable new conivrs.

There is one tiling in the Colonel's
article to which we "tae eception."
Jle says "Down Kinston way-down

emphasized by President J. H. Yotrhg
of the Norfolk Southern Railway, in
his address at Beulaville Wednesday.
Mr. Young urged the farmers to lend
their support to the college by levy
ing, if necessary, a small tax to con
tribute to its enlargement and up
keep and that by all means let the
young men go there and fit themselves
for farming along the modern, inten
sified lines. Lenoir County and oth
er counties in the State have employ
ed expert farmers, graduates of agri
cultural colleges, and those who have
taken special courses which fit them
for better work, to come and demon
strate to the farmers the possibili
ties of tilling the soil. This is good
and the planters should avail them
selves of the opportunity, but the ad
vice of Mr. Young is better. First
hand information is the best, for it is
generally more nearly correct, and
then the demonstrator cannot be ever
present to help solve the problems
that arise. The well trained farmer
is equal to any emergency, and the
time is about here when the old style
of doing things on the farm will have
to make room for the intelligent and
scientific methods. The Norfolk
Southern, it is understood, is arrang
ing to send some boys to the State A.
& M. or at least to give some schol
arships. The agreement necessary
for the beneficiary of the scholarship
to make is simply that he will live
two years, after graduation, in terri
tory traversed by the lines of the
Norfolk Southern. The officials of
the railroad know that the settlement
of such equipped young men along
its lines means diversification of crops
and a development which will bring
splendid returns in tonnr.ge to the
road. This is the ngeof specialists and
to succeed one must be capable of
conserving his opportunities and of
making use of the by-products.
send his navy against the great navy
of England.
Should Paris fall to the Germans,
peace sweet peace would probably
come to earth again, by virtue of me
diation bv neutral Dowers, unless
Germany should believe that Emper
or William's navy could best King
George's navy. In that event there
would be fought the greatest naval
battles of the world's history.
But come what may England will
dictate the terms of peace so long as
England's navy is supreme upon the
high seas.
EWS NOTES FROM BINGHAM
SCHOOL AT MEBANE.
A FEW SIDELIGHTS
ON THE WAR.
(By R. E. Wilkins.)
Plucky little Belgium, until the fall
of Antwerp, has been a thorn in the
side of the German army since the
war began. Germany well knew that
Belgium, on account of a certain
agreement with England and France,
could not remain neutral, nor per
mit the. Gorman army to pass through
the country to, fight an ally France.
But it is probable that Germany did
expect Belgium to cease its harass
ing attitude after the battles of Liege
and Brussels. But to be honorable
and true to the Alliance, Uelgium can
not cease fighting so long as there
remains an organized military force.
Germany , to change its campaign
So all this made it expedient for
Germany to change its campaign
plans against the French capital
not being able to maintain at once so
many bottle lines with vantage to
withdraw its army from French ter-
itory, take Antwerp and clear all
Belgium of its fighting men, leaving
nothing to menace German arms on
ts onward march through France to
Paris its goal.
Since the fall of Liege and Ant
werp, said to be among the best for
tified cities of the world, no one ex
pects the antiquated forts along the
roadways in France, nor the fort
resses standing guard at the gates of
he French capital to deter the Em
peror s army very long.
ro unless me -Allied armies can
stop the German, I really expect the
erupation of Paris before Christmas.
t is imperative that Germany achieve
some crowning victory at any haz
ard beforo the Kaiser n h,n. i,
ven mini' the terms of peace, or i.e-
foie it would become nwimnn' t.
Cadets Hard at Work Nice Class of
Well-Pleased Boys Personal

Bingham School, Mebane, N. C,
Oct. 24. The cadets at Bingham
School, after having been carefully
graded on their studies and properly
assigned to suitable rooms and room
mates, settled down the second dcy
after the opening on September 16th,
to steady work. The grading, which
is so important, is done by Col. Gray,
and the assigning to rooms and room
mates, which is so important, is done
by Mrs. Gray. Everything is going
along quietly and smoothly at the
school, and the session promises to
be a most successful one in the de
portment and scholarship.
A very nice class of boys is in at
tendance this year. Some of the boys
are entirely new to the school life,
traditions and history, but others
have had one or more relatives in the
institution in former years. Among
the latter we note Mr. Phil Cocke of
Ashevirie, whose uncles Jere, Eugene
and Timothy, attended Bingham un
der Col. Gray as superintendent about
seventeen years ago. Three valued
old cadets who are assisting in in
structing are Messrs. George Wheel
er of Oklahoma, who has attended
Bingham for five years; McCallum
McSwain of South Carolina, who is
beginning his fourth year; and Frank
T. Harris of Virginia, who last year,
was first captain and this session be
gins his third year of attendance at
the institution.
Judge Phillip C. Cocke of Asheville
was a recent visitor at the school,
when he entered his son. He express
ed himself ns delighted With the bar
racks, his son's room, etc.
A much esteemed visitor was Rev.
R. B. Willis of Arkansas, an old
Binghamite, who was a graduate of
the school and then teacher in the
early eighties.
