WEDNESDAY EVEN I$G. m; ,Y 31. 1916 In an article appearing in those columns a day or two ago in which the service of3uJe Bond on the Superior Court bench here was referred to complimentarily. it was made to appear that his last term had come to an end. That was an error, as it shoittl have conveyed the idea that the last criminal term over which Judge Bond is to preside here had closed. He returns to conclude his work in this district in the June civil term. e i A fessionally and personally, who eineerely'-rejrre-. to see him give up hli school work, for which he is so well fitted, and who will wish him well in his new under takings. ' I The oditor of The Free Press feels a personal loss in Mr. Caldwell's departure. He has been a consistent friend of The Free Press and its editor, and his friend ship and association have been appreciated. t 1 . LENOIR'S SENATORIAL CANDIDATE. As the primary approaches, The Free Press deems it but fitr.ing that the attention of the voters of the county be again called to the f act, .that Lenoir has a candidate for one of the State senatorial places from '.'ti't, the sev enth district. Col. W. P. Polbck. on.? of thi best known members of the local bar, is an aspirant for the honor. The Colonel's friends brought him out There was a feeling that Lenoir should be represented by ne of its own sons, not that Senators Ward and Thompson did not faithfully look after her affairs in the last assembly, but because it was felt that Lenoir was entitled to send one of the senators this time. Col. Pollock was selected by tho local bar and his candidacy announced. Col. Pollock is a courtly and scholarly gentleman, and his ability as an orator is unquestioned. He will, The Free Press believes, make a most worthy representa tive, and this paper .bespeaks the hearty and united sup port of his candidacy by the voters of this, his home county. Col. Pollock has not made an extensive cam paign; he has relied upon his friends in different sections of tho district to care for his interests and he has been encouraged by the reports which have come to him. His candidacy is being favorably received. He very naturally desires that his home county pile up a handsome compli mentary vote for him on next Saturday. lion. John W. Westcott of Camden, N. J., will have the honor of again placing Mr. Wilson in nominatxn to carry the Democratic standard in this good year of 1916. Mr. Westcott it was who had 'that honor in 1J12. Then his pleasant duty was performed with not so much assur ance of accomplishing its end as awa 3 hi speech of nomination now. Not only are tho DemjcvjUe cohorts eagerly awaiting the time to manifest; their confidence in Woodrow Wilson by renominating; and electing him, but there stand ready many others in the groat independent class, who want to have a part hUx DEATH OF COL. MOSBY. The death of Col. John S. Mosby, which occurred in Washington Tuesday, removes one of the most specta cular soldiers the world has ever known, and one of the most daring cavalry officers, who ever sat horse or wav ed saber. Mosby, with a handful of men, comparatively speaking, harrassed the lines of the northern troops dur ing the War Between the States in a fashion that made him the quarry of the entire northern army. He was searched for high and low, but his success in outwitting his enemies necessitated a final halting of the search and a special decree removing the charge of outlawry and thus he was enabled to return to peaceful pursuits with his comrades of the lost cause. ; , THE "EMPIRE BUILDER." For half century the name of James J. Hill has been identified with big development enterprises. Mr. Hill's work has been largely confined to the Northwest, but his fame has gone abroad, and the commercial world has long recognized him as a leader of the most conspicuous abil ity. He was of the eo-called self-made typo, starting life on "the farm, where no doubt he'e'aught the vision of the larger possibilities of life. MiUtHill remained in active service up to a very short time before his death, whie1 occurred Monday, in spite 6t his almost four-score years. Today great business enterprises, which were developed by this master of affairs, will pause in their onrushing to do him honor, to bow their heads, so 'to speak, out of respect to him to whom they owe their being. The world owes much to such captains of industry as was James J. Hill. ' JT "5i MR. CALDWELL'S DEPARTURE. The resignation of Superintendent Barron Caldwell of the Klnston Graded SchooIs7"fendered some weeks ago, becomes effective today, and Mr. Caldwell leaves tonipht to enter private business at Cliffside, Mr. Caldwell has been in charge of the local schools for the past two years and during his administration marked progress has been made. The standard of the teaching forces has been raised, and Mr. Caldwell has clearly demonstrated that he belongs to the modern school of educators. He lies.

Political Announcements FOR THE SENATE. I hereby announce my candidacy for State Senator, Seventh Senator ial District, subject to the Democratic primary, to be held June 3rd, 1916 W. D. POLLOCK. A (Paid political advertising D&SW) For State Senate From Seventh Sen atorial District I hereby announce myself a can didate for nomination for one of the senators from the Seventh Senator ial District, subject to the action of the Democratic primary to be held the third day of June, 1916.

Stateaville Landmark: 'Candidates tell The Landmark that many voters continue to balk at the primary, insist ing that it deprives 'them of some of their rights. The Landmark has explained the primary several times and those who cannot, or will ndt, understand from what has been said, would not believe though one rose from the dead. Moreover, this paper has no special concern a to whether folks vote in the primary. It is an oppor tunitythe first real opportunity our folks have had to name their candidates. If they don't take advantage of it they will have no right to complain if the men se lected are not to their liking. "Voters in the Democratic, primary can select their own candidates from the list on the ticket. They don't have to vote for candidates for all offices unless they choose. They can vote for one and quit. Some say, we are in formed, that they want to vote for men of both parties. They can do that at the November election. At that election they can vote for whoever they please. If the ames printed on the Democratic and Republican tickets lon't please them, they can substitute any name they has made many warm friends since his comir, both pr wish the name of a man of any politics or of no poli- A MODERN SLOGAN "GET WELL." Winston-Salem Journal: ''Man has been called the sick animal. An ordinary Bengal tiger or self-respecting armadillo does not overeat, or smoke or drink to excess, or stay up all night and awaken next morning with a bad taste in the mouth. "Civilized man is especially likely to be sick, for the things that improve life also make us ill through their abuse. "America has a tremendous sick list. A report on na tional vitality shows three million people actually sick, at all times. Our sickness costs us over a billion dollars a year about twice the revenue of the government. This estimate does not include the incalculable loss of efficien cy of people who are just tired, fagged, below par. "As a sick nation we have done fairly. We could dou ble, treble, quadruple our work if we wiped out sickness. It is no idle dream. It can be done. In fact, it is being done. One of the greatest reforms now on in this coun try is to "get well." "We have obliterated yellow fever and scurvy and al most ended small-pox. In another generation any city that has a typhoid epidemic will be held up to public scorn. Today there are five hundred thousand people continually eick from tuberculosis, an easily preventable disease; in another generation tuberculosis should be rare. There are three million cases of malaria every year; vigorous war on mosquitoes will make it unknown." FOR SHERIFF, LENOIR COUNTY.

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 ame amounts of fuel. .Gasoline now costs, in most places, over 100 per cent more than kerosene. A 611. P. engine, gasoline or kerosene, burns 700 to 800 gallons of fuel in 1,000 hours' work. At present average prices, 700 gallomi 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 yor 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. H. GRAINGER, KINSTON, N.
