SATURDAY EVENING, MAY 6, 1916 It is no credit to Kinston that only two or three of its municipal authorities lent their presence regularly to the m . v i y t ' t .1 l - : 1 sessions oi tne municipal L,onvenion ana mat our neign boring city, Goldsboro, should have had more representa tives in the convention than did Kinston. It would have been we'l if every present councilman and other city authority of Kinston and those, who may have aspirations for those positions in the future, had been present at nfl of the sessions of this most profitable two-day's gath" ing. We could have wished that provision had been made at the shad-stew Thursday for those who did not care for beer A little of Kinston's good water or some soft drinks for the comfort and accommodation of quite a number present would have been very much in order. In fact, we regretted very much that the social com mittee saw fit to provide beer for such an occasion. In spite of precedent the example of the mayors, the chief authorities of the chief centers of population of Carolina, in refraining on such an occasion from indulging in pui He drinking of that, which the laws of the State have ruled against, would have been most wholesome. The Iseture of Madam Bella Pesvner on the Jewish con tribution to tha world's civilization given in Kinston Thursday night was a most interesting; and comprehensive portrayal of the important part that the Jewish people have had in moulding the history of the world. Madam Pesvner brought out' most vividly the persecution of hor people;, how they have been driven from pillar to posi but. not without first leaving the indelible stamp of their influence upon the countries into which they have mi grated and settled. It is well enough that the average person understand the indebtedness of the world to the Jewish people and The Free Press is glad it hat so large a hearing was given the distinguished woman of Palestine In Kinston. KINSTON'S SPLENDID OPPORTUNITY. No better opportunity has ever been given Kinston for Intelligent and profitable advertising than was afforded' be borne in mind that a man in high position is pestered Fred Sutton as Secretary and Treasu-e of the Municipal Association. "Great Is Kinston and The Free Press tells iff story.f GERMANY'S REPLY CREDITABLE. A study of the text of Germany's reply to President Wilscn's ultimatum reveals a most carefully worded and capably written document in which the essential points insisted upon 'by President Wilson have been conceded. The larger part of the note is a preamble in defense of Germany's position and making reference to many of the contentions that Germany has heretofore made in the diplomatic controversy and these "earmarks" of 'he former attempts to evade the real issue were construed by the Washington officials as foreboding evil and until the final words of the message came in its was not realiz ed that Germany had made the concessions requisite to a continuance of diplomatic relations, but on the other hand the new3 came from Washington that a break was immi nent. Germany's reply yield, the essential points; admits the righteousness of the United States' contentions for hu manity and bases its willingness to further concede to the demands of this country on the same high ground that those terms were made. The German Government makes a candid avowal of its appreciation of the friend ship existing between the two countries and of its earn est desire to maintain that bond of friendship. There has been some tendency on the part of congress men and other critics to term the German reply as dic tatorial" and unsatisfactory because of the tone of the preamble and because of Germany's empnasia of the violations of international law by her enemies. It was not to be expected that Germany's note would be ex cessively cordial and without attempting to defend it former attitude, yield graciously to the contentions of this government. Such a response would have teen mis understood by the German populace and called forth criticism and lessened the faith of the German people in theii' rulers. Germany's contention that Great Britain should be required to conform to international law, should, in spite of the fact that the United States Govern ment has declined to treat the violations of the respect ive enemies at the same time, be well taken. Certainly Great Britain should be made to yield and we believe with the German controversy settled President Wilson v.'iil turn his attentions to the safeguarding of neutral rights as they may be affected by the actions of the Brit ish and their allies. The German note does credit to a great nation and avoids the severance of international friendship ties the far reaching and momentous consequences of which could not have been foretold.

McDuff, Va. "I suffered for several years," says Mrs. J. B. Whittaker, oi this place, "with sick headache, and stomach trouble. Ten years ago a friend told me fo try Thedford's Black-Draught, which I did, and 1 found it to be the best family medi cine for young and old. I keep Black-Draught on hand all fht time now, and when my children feel a little bad, they ask me for a dose, and il does them more good than any medicine they ever tried. We never have a long spell of sick ness in our family, since we commenced using Black-Drat:.;." Thedford's Black-Draught is purely vegetable, and has been found to regu- late weak stomachs, aid digestion, re lieve indigestion, colic, wind, nausea, headache, sick stomach, and similai symptoms.

A SAVING YOU MAY HAVE MISSED WHAT DOES IT MEAN to you to be told that Titan engines burn kerosene? Not much, does it? Yet because of that fact, you would make the mistake of your life if you bought any other engine. Gasoline and kerosene engines burn about the same amounts of fuel. .Gasoline now costs, in most places, over 100 per cent, more than kerosene. A 6H. P. engine, gasoline or kerosene, burns 700 to 800 gallons of fuel in 1,000 hours' work. At present average prices, 700 gallons of gasoline would cost you about, $175, while 800 gallons of kerosene costs but $96 or thereabouts. A Titan 6 H. P. engine, burning kerosene, would .therefore save you somewhere around $70 a year. Now do you realize what a startling statement that is? Titan engines burn kerosene. See me before you buy any other engine. Prices right and terms to suit you. H. II. GRAINGER, KINSTON, N. C.
