NEW YORK OFFICE Metropolitan Building, No. 1 Madison Avenuo, Mr. Robert W. clykaa, Jr., in solo charge of Eastern Department. . Files of Free Press can ba aeen. Entered at the poitofliee at Kinston. North Carolina, as econd-clasR matter nnder act of Congress, March S, 1879. Subscribers am requested to notify, by Tel phone 75. The Free Press of any irregular Ity of delivery or inattention whatsoever on the part of th carriers. suite the accounting should ba had. It is well known to those, who hava lived in other cities and towns, and had occasion to make observation when visiting, that Kinstonians do not enjoy -some privileges that are afforded elsewhere. The question is very naturally constantly arising in the mind of the thinking taxpayer, "whether the returns are commensurate with the outlay? The meeting to be held in Raleigh next Tuesday for the purpose of organizing a State advertining and boosting association is of much interest to the State at large. The possibilities of such an organization are practically un limited, dependent upon the perfection and conduct of the organization. If there be shown the proper spirit and interest from all sections of the State, and there is not in evidence a desire to hava one section favored to the detri ment of others, and the proper leaders can be secured, the new association xhould be of much benefit. It is a big undertaking and unless it is handled accordingly its suc cess is not assured. 1 Excursion to Merille, N. C, Tuesday, Jane 29, 1915 Via Southern Railway, PREMIER CARRIER of tho SOUTH SATURDAY EVENING, JUNE 26, 1915. . Tonight is your laat chance to use that season ticket Go to the Chautauqua and get your money's worth. ' a ''''';, ' Dr. Dernberg has arrived in Norway, says a news dis patch. .

When they ara good to look at and aing well, too, the combination for producing encores is hard to beat. That Annapolis investigation, judging from tha frank admissions that hava been made from tha witness stand of flagrant dishonesty in stealing examinations, leads the country to doubt whether tha flower of its youth have been recipients of tha appointments to tha naval institute. Mora cars in tha selection should be exercised in the future. Secretary Canady of tha Kinston Fair Association says ' that all speeders may enjoy tha privileges of tha new track, provided they keep within tha limit of ninety miles. It is feared that such an exacting limit will keep a num ber of those, who would otherwslo accept tha invitation, from participating, but let it ba "privately11 suggested that no atop watches win ba used for tha present at least ;;V';-;;j;:.;,;,V; a - v ; '-, -' WHY NOT GET 'EM COMING KINSTON WAY. . In commenting upon a recent story carried in Tha Free Press ancnt the corn production in North Carolina, sever al prominent business men in the group concluded that Kinston should hava corn axchanga where the gral could ba sold l&e cotton is handled. It was pointed out that great deal of corn was raised in Lenoir and even mora would ba raised if there was assurance that a good market for it would be maintained. It was known some of those in the party that many instances had arisen where farmers would have disposed of their surplus pro duction if there had been an easy channel for, marketing, This is certainly a matter that will bear investigation Tha Chamber of Commerce might look into the situation The establishment of any market facilities which would bring additional products to Kineton or through it, and necessitate additional visits of the planters of this and adjoining counties would be well. Why not get 'em com ing Kinston-way? Schedule and low round-trip fares as follows: Lv. Goldsboro C:45 a. m. $0.00. Lv. Selma 7:55 a. m. $5:50. Lv. Raleigh 8:52 a. m. $5.00. Lv.

YORK, Traveling Passenger Agent, Raleigh, N. C. 6-22 to 28-Dly ARE THE RETURNS TO TAXPAYERS IN KINSTON COMMENSURATE? "Lest we forget, we say it yet!" Why not hava the x city garbage wagons make a weekly round throughout the residence sections of the city? Why make it necessary for those citizens, who desire to keep their premises clean, ' .and there are a great many of such mortals, fortunately pay twenty-five or fifty cents for a service which the city' ought to furnish free, or at the most a nominal charge? " Kinston is a good place to live in, and it might be contended that it ia worth more to a fellow to live hare than some other places, which might ba named. That ia all so well and good, but isnt it a fact that Kinston people . ara payins , a premium most too heavy in view of tho return. The : taxes of Kinston are .equally aa high if not a little higher than some other places, which to all outward appearances get more in return.; Aside from Queen street, no sprinkling is done to apeak of, and unless the rains are favorable the dust is shoe deep. J When the rains come, the other extreme Is experienced. .There is mud and plenty of it. The Kin. ston ' taxpayers should, have an occasional accounting. This is not necessarily a criticism of the administration, but the city's business should be conducted on business principles. Periodical audita and intelligent comparisons with results attained elsewhere would unquestionably be beneficial. The Free Press is perfectly willing to admit and suggest that such audita might show a far better re turn than U commonly surmised. Regardless of the re- EVERY FARMER SHOULD MAKE A REPORT. Attention has been repeatedly called to the meeting to be held in Goldsboro next Friday at 11:15 a. m. for the purpose of submitting such data and information as will enable the United States Engineering Department to in telligently pass upon the project to open the channel of the Neuse river between New Bern, Kinston and Gold.sboro for regular steamboat traffic. In yesterday's paper a let tcr was printed from Major Stickle in which he advised The Free Press that the hour for the meeting had been chanced from 10 o'clock to 11:15. in accordance with its suggestion, in order that Kinston and New Bern delega tiona might more easily attend. An extract of a letter Kent out by the Goldsboro Chamber of Commerce was ltio printed, in which it was suggested that all peopl Kving along the proposed route, submit information as to their tonnage. The amount of tonnage and the products and commodities should be given. Every farmer should make a report of the cotton and other products which KjjjjjQrj CdTOlillZl R R &. wouia ue snipped oy me nver route. The Free Presn believes that the opening of the river for regular traffic would mean about the most important development now possible for the district. The value of water transportation facilities is Immense. It would mean to this district, an outlet at nominal freight charges, for a great many products that cannot now be successfully marketed. Considerable timber adjacent to the river and remote from the railroads would be convertible into cash through this outlet. ' In addition to the transporta tion facilities, the better drainage because of the deeper channel and less liability of overflow is worthy of eon sideration. Let everybody, who has the welfare of this district at heart, interest themselves and furnish data. This should be sent to the respective Chambers of Commerce, and The Free Press will be very glad to receive and transmit such as may be sent to its ofllce.

Progressive Farmer: "Notice what Professor Wright says about how colds spread through schools as a result of using a common drinking cup. Now is the time to look after getting better sanitary conditions In your school before the next session begins, and certainly individual drinking cups should be required." WITHOUT THE CLIMATE WE SURMISE THERE WOULD BE IMPROVEMENT. Greensboro News: Some of the Glorious Girls aro drifting off to the mountains, where men will teach them to fish, or to the seashore, where they will be instructed In swimming; but while they are missed, some will pre sently be returning as others leave. Life would be into! erable in Greensboro, even with the Climate, if most of these Damsels should leave town at one time." CAN HELP THE STATE. Raleigh Times: "If North Carolinians can forget their local communities when they meet here next Tuesday to form a State-wide organization for the better advertising of this commonwealth, they can accomplish wonders. In order to effect an organization, however, that will do real service, the business men must consider the State as a whole; they must hot think of the Piedmont section, the Tidewater country, the central section, or the mountain region, as men from those sections naturally would be inclined to do. It is obvious that the business men must agree on a larger plan of endeavor than that. : The Times believes they are big enough to do this. " If they are, then they can bring things to pass for North Carolina. It is with this idea of State service in mind that the business men should come to Raleigh next Tuesday morning."
