It shall always be the desire and purpose of this paper to stimu late the marketing of all crops produced in this section right here in Kinston, and every facility for handling the crops should be provided. It is all right for villages to conduct their ,saes on the streets, but isn't it time for Kinston to get .but of the village class? The advisability of taking some steps looking to a removal of the cot ton market from Queen street when the 1915-16 season opens up is urged. What do the cotton men think about it? " "v , ANTI-SPITTING PLACARDS, ETd, BEING POSTED AGAIN. The police are again posting the anti-spitting and peeling-throwing ordinances on the posts throughout the business section of the city. It is well that this be done. The public should be kept reminded of these laws and Todsy the proposed German blockade starts. A great the public should co-operate with the authorities in res- many American ships are en route to England, and will hove to ps through tha sone, restricted by the German ruling. The chances that they will get through safely are largely in tha majority. Nobody believes that the Germans are going to wilfully endanger the lives of citi xens of m neutral country. pecting these sanitary measures, and thus assist in keep ing the city streets clean. But if the public does not co operate, the city authorities should take other and more remedial action. Tha posting of the signs is all right, but The F ree Press has observed, when the placards have been placed heretofore, that very little,, if any, attention is paid to them, and the sidewalks continue to be used for tv- .iiti.. . .v. -t,i -,;,. k...t...n...

If this city is to depend upon the enforcement of the laws solely through placards, they might as well not be taking up the space of the statute books. The average man is too busy to stop to read all the signs that are posted. Those who arc standing on the streets may read the signs, but unless their attention is called in some other way, it is doubtful Jit any good will be obtained from the notice. Let the police use their eyas and "run in" a few offend ers and the laws, making it possible to keep the streets !n more sanitary and sightly condition, will be respected as they never have been.

Raleigh News and Observer:: "We hear much of women of ill fame. Mayor Harry Wooding of Danville holds that there are also men of ill fame. Accordingly men found in questionable places in Danville will in the future be re quired to give bond to keep away from them. Mr. Wood ing has taken the entirely logical and sensible course. The law should bear on the man and the woman equally." SEEMS LIKE MONEY IS PLENTIFUL Winston-Salem Sentinel: "If , any proof were needed of the abundance of money awaiting safe investment the fact that the New York Central Railroad's new bond issue of $100,000,000 was largely oversubscribed would nupply it. This rush to invest is especially significant because it comes so soon after the Pennsylvania Rail road's very successful floating of a bond issue of $10,- 000,000 which was five times oversubscribed."

The three negroes left Kinston on a late ; train Saturday night to attend a negro "social function," which means nothing mora nor less than a "rasor party," Incited by an abundance of mean liquor.
