THURSDAY EVENING, JULY 13, 1916
And Jimmie Cowan hasn't said a word about Wrights
ville! Do you believe it?
We apprehend that if there was as much hog cholera
in any community as there is evidence of typhoid infec
tion in Kinston, several experts would have already been
on the job to save the valuable swine.

under the law ships cannot put to sea from an Amer
ican port, without the requisite number of registered sea
men. ; We don't know whether the boys who brought the
Deutschland across are registered or 'not, but if ability
counts for anything they are entitled to registration.
The rank and file of the Bull Moosers are forced to
cast thedr lot so far as the selection' of the President
is concerned, either with their ancient enemies of the
"stand-pat" brigade, or move forward and vote for Mr.
Wilson. However, they still have a Vice-President and a
platform of their own first choice,

The Greensboro News wants to know where the best
people of the Kinston vicinity etand with reference to
law enforcement. The best people of this viaimty stand
just where the best people of Greensboro and the best
people of every other vicinity stand. They are unequivo
cally for law enforcement.
J Last year when the editors of North Carolina gather
ed for their, annual "pew-wow" at Monfcreat they had as
their guests the fellows from the Palmetto State, and
the visitors proved to be fine eompany, and added muchly
to the pleasure of the occasion. Expressions of regret
are being heard at this year's meeting owing to the fact
that joint sessions could not be arranged for this year.
HOW MUCH BETTER WOULD IT BE?
One of Lenoir's well-to-do farmers informed The Free
Press a few days ago that he expected to ship a car
load of hogs to some nearby market this fall. Undoubt
edly thia will be an event worthy of congratulation and
one whkh will bring favorable comment for this section.
How much better would it be, however, if this pro
gressive farmer could bring to Kinston a carload of hogs
and dispose of them here or find facilities here for
slaughtering and packing instead of having to send this
stock, possibly, out of the State for the larger profit to
be gained by some other community, which has made such
provisions?
intothe system through the, mouth, more commonly
through wata-;or milk. The germ can be conveyed by
flies to vegetables, "fruit jand other' eatables, which art
exposed, and for that reason there 4s necessity, for the
greatest precaution in the handling of caees and for
the free use of germicides with everything used in con
nection with the sick room.
Those families where the disease has developed can
render service in preventing its spres by exercise of
due care. The best and safest steps perhaps for those,
who have not been afflicted, is to take the anti-typhoid
treatment. This has been found to give immunity in
the very large majority of cases. The serum is furnished
to physicians without cost by tie State Laboratory.
There is some discomfort occasioned by the administer
ing or at least the effects of the dose, but such ill effects
are insignificant indeed, when compared with the real
thing. The insurance is well worth the premium.

WHAT OTHERS SAY
THE INSURANCE WORTH THE PREMIUM.
Unless there is an intelligent investigation by compe
tent health authorities the source of typhoid fever, which
is now prevalent in this section, cannot be determined.
Health experts proclaim the scourge to be a creature of
hlth. and positively preventable when proper precautions
are observed. It is a known fact that the germ is taken
"DAVID" TO "DEUTSCHLAND."
Richmond News Leader: "Twelve years ago and only
twelve separated the Clermont from the Savannah the
first practical steamship from the first transatlantic liner.
Fifty-three years separate the David, the first steam sub
marine, from the Deutschland, which raced yesterday
into the harbor of Baltimore. In admiration 'of the lat
ter fact, therefore, we will do well to avoid superlatives,
The journey which a German completed a Southerner
forecast: the accomplishment has been merely a ques
tion of time. f
"But when we say that it took fifty-three , years to
perfect the submarine for a voyage across the Atlantic,
we are, of course, speaking historically. The cunning la
bors of Confederate engineers, which gave the world the'
first true submarine, were laughed at by the thoughtless
and ignored by the learned. And when one of the early
Davids was lost in a successful attack on the Federal
Housatonic, wiseacres prophesied the dream of under
Beas attacks would never be fulfilled. Not until Holland
built his first submarine in 1877 were the early discour
agements ovorcome; and not until ten years later was
the government sufficiently interested to invite plans for
the construction of a war submarine. In 1903 the United
States formally authorized for the first time the build
ing of a submarine, the Plunger. That historic little craft
was only 85 feet long, with a diameter of 11 1-2 feet and
a displacement of 168 tons. Thus in only one year 'more
than it took to develop the Savannah from the Clermont,
a vessel almost three times as long as the Plunger, and
with a displacement about five times as great, has passed
the British cordon, crossed the Atlantic and docked at
the head of the Chesapeake. Every man who admires
daring will salute the crew and every man who respects
ingenuity must applaud the resourcefulness of the Ger
man shipbuilders. Truly they find a way out of every
difficulty. fv .
"At the jamo time, it is foolish to say that the Deutsch
land ends the blockade of German ports. One swallow
does not make a summer and one transatlantic submersi
ble merchantman cannot supply the needs of a nation.
The Deutschland will carry back many spies' reports,
much mail, much money and some rubber and nickel: a
hundred Deutschlands could not land in German ports
as many goods as are unshipped every day in Great Brit
ain under the protection of the fleet. Besides all this,
th9 economy of the service, the length of time consumed
on the journey and the wear and tear on boat must all
be considered before the submarine can be considered a
a commercial possibility. At present the . Deutschland
represents merely a very convincing evidence of German
seamanship and a very striking taunt to their enemies.
"No international difficulties are probable as a result of
the arrival of the Deutschland. If she is unarmed, or is
armed only for defense, she has as much right and as
hearty a welcome in American waters as any ship of
tho Allied Powers. Our neutrality is as unfeigned as it
is impartial. Nor will the vessel be in serious danger
from tho British cruisers off our coast. To follow her
course, when submerged, beyond the three-mile limit, the
men-of-war would have to employ hydroplanes, and even
then they could not destroy her readily. If she passes
out at night, the Deutschland will havo only accidents to
fear until she reaches the British coast Then, we may
be sure, tho Allies will attempt to snare her, but, we
suspect, in vain. i
