JUNE 8. 1916 But then the fellowship reports from the "Windy City" may be all air. We still hold to the opinion that the Colonel spell harmony after this fashion: "ureewithme" (or there'll be war). Mr. Mitchell thinks he won his point even if he did not get many votes. And there are others who ugrce with him. News item: Senator Borah calls emphatic attention to his candidacy for the presidential nomination by with drawing from the race. The feelings of the fellow, who uttered the sentiment, "Never tnind the weather so the wind don't blow," were appreciated by, some Kinstonians Tuesday night when their domiciles were rocked by a near-gale. That dapper youth who insisted upon being given the privilege of introducing his own resolution in (Congress, when he failed to find the congressman from his district, is evidently a firm believer in the "rights of the people." Richmond is now threatening to unearth a new scan dal in its official life. This time the "incentive" fur let ting certain paving contracts in the past is to be investi gated. Why not make the investigation comprehensive enough to include all the officials aiid 'their work, which have not already come under thejtearchlight? KINSTON'S RESPONSIBILITY. The good people of Kinston are eminently right in ask ing their city authorities to close the public pool rooms, which at best, contribute nothing to the uplift of society. And we believe the council was likewise correct in yield ing to the petitions of the citizens. Kinston will be bet ter when these gathering and loitering places are closed and no longer operated to menace the morals of the young men of the community. But Kinston has a responsibility which must not be overlooked in this connection. When the pool rooms are closisd. those who have found refuga in them, will seek other places to congregate, and they will find places where the influences are even more detrimental, unless the good people cf Kinston provide wholesome gathcrin places to take the place of the questionable ones which they must insist upon being closed up. Among the things that have been enumerated in the past as essential to Kinston by The Free Press has been a Y. M. C. A. and also a Y. W. C. A. The need for the latter may not be so real now because the large majority of the young women here are at home. As Kinston grows and more young women come here to engage in the various pursuits for a livelihood, which may be of fered, the responsibility for providing for their recrea tion amid pleasant and wholesome environment will in crease. As the boarding house colony grows the obliga tion of the community will be enlarged. The responsibility for caring for the young men is already weighing heavily. The good people of Kinston should be giving thought to this matter and laying plans to provide an atmosphere where the influences will be ennobling and uplifting, and at the same time the requi site social environs afforded. WHAT OTHERS SAY SIX OR HALF-DOZEN WHICH? Durham Herald: "If the Republicans have to nomin ate a man acceptable to the Colonel they might as well give it to him and be done with it." CONSISTENCY OF HARTNESS. Wihuton-Salem Journal: "Mr. J. A. Hartness, candi date for the Democratic nomination for Secretary of State, was both consistent and wise when he declined to enter a second -primary as soon as enough returns were in to show that his opponent, Mr. Grimes, had a plurality of the votes cast in the first primary. It will be -remem bered that it was Mr. Hartness who first suggested that the candidate polling the largest number of votes be de clared the party nominee. There is not enough at stake in the selection of a candidate for Secretary of State to justify the expense of a second primary."

Funny how sometimes a fellow .thinks when he can- ' : ,, - .--5 i not make the points in favor of his 'aide of the question tick In the cranium of his opposing disputant that he can carveythem into his person. We learn from the es teemed Greenville Reflector that polities became so warm in a certain quarter last Saturday afternoon that one of the argucrs called on his knife, for assistance. Congratulations to our esteemed contemporary, the Winston-Salem Journal and its able editor. Sunt ford Martin, on the installation of a full leased wire tele graphic service. The Journal is one of the best edited papers in the State; is clean and courageous, and with the enlarged news service it patrons will not lack any of the requisites which go to the making of a creditable and valuable newspaper. "The Morning New Bernian" is the latest addition to the "Fourth Estate" in these parts. New Bern's new morning daily made its initial appearance Sunday morn ing. It is published by the Hill Printing Company and James B.' Dawson is the managing editor. The introduc tory statement of the publishers read in part as fol lows: "We felt that a city the sir.e of New Bern and the territory adjacent reeded a morning paper. Not An absolute necessity, mind you, but the people having been accustomed to one for a long period of years, naturally missed it. and today we present to you The Morning New Bernian." Success "to the venture is our best wish. LET INVESTIGATION BE REAL. Raleigh Times: "The Times prints today a communi cation from J. C. Hubbard of Clinton, which apart from the self-evident feeling that Tuns 'through it, makes what we consider a good point concerning the investigation into the management of the Central Hospital for the Insane. "Mr. Hubbard's complaint is that he has been asked to testify in an investigation which he did not instigate and in which the State is the party chiefly concerned, with out effort to Indicate authority to compel his attendance or offer to pay his expenses. The logic of his position is, that if the State really wishes to ascertain the truth concerning charges which have been laid against the institution, it goes about, it in a poor way when it takes no better method than this to secure evidence. It will be easily understood that wtincsses in such an investiga tion are not likely to be what are called 'willing'; and that the truth as to the charges is more apt to be dis covered from testimony that is the reverse of eager. "The institution having been attacked, it is the right of the people of the State to have every possible bit of light thrown upon its conduct and methods. Presumably the State has means by which it can enforce attendance of witnesses, and if it has no such power, it is well that the legislature be now put on notice as to the statutory oversight. It will not do in such an inquiry to have the institution assume the character of defendant or the State that of counsel or prosecutor concerning it. What is needed is information from every available source. Whatever decision arrived at will necessarily be worth less if founded on evidence open to objection of ex-parte character.
