TUESDAY EVENING, JUNE 27, 1916 In the meantime, where is Villa? Thursday is race day and the merchants of Kinston are expected to help the good work by closing their stores for half a day. Sam Farrabce's patriotism seems to be running red. The front page of his Hickory Daily Record of last Saturday is all smeared up with red and blue, commemorative of the departure of the Hickory company for Gamp Glenn. It is taken for granted that the proposed visit of a German submarine for the ostensible purpose of bringing message from the Kaiser to President Wilson is in real ity to let the world know that Germany has a submarine which can get that far from its base. Inasmuch as there is reported to be a scarcity of offi cers to command the troops that Uncle Sam will require In the Mexican campaign, Private Weel of the New York National Guard, who has just returned from the Euro pean battle grounds, where he served as captain in a Canadian Regiment, will probably be available to fill some of the gaps. .If the Pitt county folks (find it possible to put on a Cpunty Fair our best wishes go with the undertaking. The Kjnaton Fair laet year received some of its most cordial sapport front our Pitt county friends, and we are selfish enough to express the hope, that they may be able to continue to lend their influence to making the Ten-County Fair at Kinston a repeated success. mlnlfMt to the soldier boys before they take their depart ure. There is at the same time an opportunity afforded for a more substantial service to be rendered by the citizens, and that is to make provision for the necessities of fami lies, whose breadwinners are leaving, and for whose wants the meager allowance of the privates is not enough. The Free Press is informed that there are several families which are in straightened circumstances because of the sudden call, and the good people of Kinston must not over look such cases. No more graceful or worthy action could be taken than to provide for such families before the soldiers leave, that they may have ctfmfort in the knowledge that their loved ones are to be cared for. Information can be gotten from Captain Hill or from The Free Press about those families, which are in need. The Free Press will be glad to receive money or other contributions to be distributed by a committee, whjch may be decided upon. The matter should have prompt atten tion. It is one that cannot be deferred. 5Sr STOMACH trouble ABSOLUTELY UNTRUSTWORTHY. The Carrizal incident in which, forty v0r more Ameri can troopers were wantonly shot down by the treacherous Mexicans is but further evidence- of the wntrustworthi ness of the Mexicans. None of their leaders is worthy of trust. Carranza, himself, who was given recognition by this Government, has failed to show in any particular that he was worthy of that confidence, and if he was de pendendable, the fact that his subordinates disregarded his orders whenever it is to rtheir selfish interest to do so, make it questionable whether it is advisable to accept any of his assurances. He could not guarantee fulfill ment of his promises even if they were made in good faith. If the worst comes and the United States is forced to declare war, which there seems to be practically no doubt of now, the Mexican warfare will no doubt be conducted on a guerilla plan of ambush and massacre, and it is safe to predict that there will be very little fighting in the open if the Mexicans can evade such. They will ask for quarter and shoot those, who grant it, in the back at the first opportunity.

SOUTHERN RAILWAY i PLENTY OF PEACHES, TOO. Raleigh New, and Observer: "The Kinston Free Press Bays that "Kinston is a city of gardens." We trust that i there are peaches in every blessed one of them." ' (According to the latest orders. Company B of the Sec op d Regiment will bid good-ijye' to home ties Wednesday about midday and entrain f&p laobUization headquarters at Camp Glenn. The best;wisfte of all Kinston will go with Captain Hill and his splendid troops. May they not be found wanting in whatever places they are called to fill, and above all. may they safely return to their own firesides at a not very distant date. 3; .We don't know whethsi flia report of Captain Morey, to the effect that the American troops attacked by the Mexicans at Carrizal were in battle formation when the Mexicans fired on them, will be construed as a violation of orders or not, but if there was such evidence of hos tile attitude of the Mexicans as to cause the commanding officer of the American troops to take such precaution the Administration will probably justify the action and in sist upon reparation on the part of the Mexican authorities. CARING FOR SOLDIERS' FAMILIES. "The Free Press feels that it is a most worthy senti ment which is prompting individuals and the citizens gen erally of Kinston in extending social courtesies to the brave fellows, who have answered thoir country's call and who will represent Kinston on the battle field. It is in deed befitting that the appreciation of the community be ABOUT DRESSES. Norfolk Ledger-Dispatch : "Anent the current comment upon the prevailing style of dress for women the Philadel phia Bulletin cites an entertaining incident in which a Chinese girl says what she thinks. "Miss Ah Sun, a Chinese lady, went for a walk in Cen tral Park, attired in her native costume of coat and trous ers. A New York policeman, wishing, no doubt, to main tain the high reputation of metropolitan standards on our manners and morals, held her up and told her that the law prohibits the appearance of a woman in man's cloth ing. Miss Ah Sun pointed to an approaching American womai who wore an abbreviated skirt that fell just be low her knees, and said that her modesty would not permit her to wear the immodest New York clothes for women. 'Those things are not for Ah Sun!' she retorted, accord ing to the news report. "There Is rich food for contemplation here, for it cannot be denied that the Chinese lady dealt our boasted western civilization what pugilists term a knock-out blow. On a Philadelphia church just off City Hall Square there hangs a sign which says: 'If you want others to serve God, serve God yourself.' Suppose we put it this way: Judge not the ways of the heathen, lest the heathen sentence you on your judgment. Was it not Thackeray who said that mor als are absolutely necessary in other people?"

Raleigh News and Observer: "Says the Jacksonville Times-Union: "The Tar Heels are pleased with the pri mary, which is a new toy to them, but the first thing they know, it will do something that ill maka them sick." It won't be the primary that will make us sack, but its manipulation and perversion by politicians would. However, the penitentiary could be effectively used to protect the primary from corruptionists and all men who attempt to set at naught the will of the people. It is quite possible for the primary to fail among an incompe tent, and corruptible people, but for the same reason gov ernment itself will fail." Wilmington Star.
