FRIDAY EVENING., AUGUST AX. 1916 Hog and hominy, home-raised, is the best antidote for the proposed ten cent, bread. If the railroads decline to give an inch and the em ployes do likewise, the question 'remains whether the med iators can furnieh a link long enough to bridge the chasm. The action of the Republican caucus in declining to en dorse the proposition for adjournment of Congress in September will probably have little weight if the Demo cratic caucus decides that' it is time to quit. The true 'old saying "an ill wind that blows nobody good." is being I exemplified in the encouraging reports which come from the tobacco markets, which have already opened to the south. The Fairmont market reports ths sale of one load for 9533.00, an average of 40c a pound, and active buying at good prices is the word, which the . Lumberton Robesonian is sending out concerning its mar ket. The flood's devastation is shooting prices skyward. " How the mlgrhty have falten! One who is familiar with . the baseball' records for the past decade can hardly be. , lieve his own eyes when gating upon the percentage of the American League and sees there reposing at the foot of the column, with the Ignomlnoua percentage of 192, the great machine of Connie Mack, once heralded as the great ' est fighting team the world of baseball had produced. Twenty consecutive defeats Is in; itsekNsorn record and Connie is, therefore, still in tits game of making reords more the "fashion." .The progressive planters are learn ing that .there is good money in hog raising, when good stock is used. The razor-back scrub is not .in favor any longer. The blooded pigs are rooting the "acorn chaser" out of the place that he used to occupy. The Free Press hopes to see the day in the not too distant future, when it will not be an uncommon sight for quantities of home raised and home-cured meats to be brought to the local market and find here a ready sale. A little intelligent co operative effort will turn the trick. " t BUT TIIE COLONEL COULDNT DELIVER. Colonel Roosevelt missed his guess when he concluded that he could deliver bag and baggage in toto his follow ers of the Progressive party to the standpat brigade, which he deserted in 1912. The conventions of the Repub licans and Progressives did all they could to effect a union. The delegates assembled at Chicago with the express pur pose of forming a harmony coalition and after several days of parleying they failed to agree upon a compromise candidate, and Mr. Roosevelt was nominated again to lead the Progressives. Their feelings were rudely shocked when he coolly declined the nomination. They were left adrift party without a head. Mr. Roosevelt played a smooth game but he failed to deliver the goods. The Free Press predicted at the outset that a large number of those who cast their ballots on the Progres sive national ticket in 1912, were the independent voters of the country, and that they would not dn large num bers fall for such political tricks as the Colonel had tried to pull off. It has been apparent from the very outset that a great number of the Progressives would not fol low their leader in 'his retrograde action. They had the alternative of going back to a party which they left, many of them at least, because that party did not repre sent modern thought and was not keeping step with the progress of the times; or on the other hand of casting their fortunes with the party, which has by actual accom plishments demonstrated that it is abreast of the times, and that it can cope with the changing panorama of world events and conditions. The declaration of Mr. Matthew Hale, Acting Chair man of the Progressive National Committee, endorsing President Wilson's administration and declining to sup port Mr. Hughes' party is but an evidence that such pre diction was Well founded. Mr, Hughes' party has noth ing to offer the progressive and modern thought of the country. The Hughes party iar carrying a millstone by its continued subservience to the will and dictates of that notorious coterie of stand-pat bosses. Mr. Hale's action in coming into the Democratic fold, is but one of the many that will follow. Mr, Wilson will share, we be lieve, most satisfactorily in the support of the erstwhile Moosers. end winter." EVERLASTINGLY RIGHT. Clinton Democrat: "In his charge to the grand jury on Mcnda' Jud,je Devin said: The ideal of our civiliza tion is the home, with a mother and father who love each other and rear their, children to fear God and love rheir country." : He is everlastingly right" ,L PLANT Until my Own nursery stork is lsrge enough to puton the market I will sell from the largest and best Pecan nurseries" in Gergia, all the hrst Pecan trees grown.

The Louisville and Nashville for years has exerted a political influence, whfejao to be reckoned . with, in the states traversed by its lines, and the many efforts to break its hold have prctiucedsome spectacular ; lights, One of the most interesting of which was that of . vne state I AiaDama during in aammisirauon oi uov rnor Comer. 'The State finally won, but it had to travel a rough road of injunctions and other obstacles before Csai Smith was conquered. With all his political activi ties his railroad is accredited as one of the ablest man aged in all the country. ' - ' s 1 -FIFTP SIX POUND HAM A LENOIR PRODUCT. Lenoir county should be proud that it has farmres who are raising and selling on the local market fifty-six pound bams, such as was reported in yesterday's news columns of The Free Press, when Mr. Jenre Sutton of the Buckles berry "section sold a magnificent specimen of such pro portions In Kinston. The hog, from which the ham was taken, weighed five hundred and eighty-five pounds, and any county In the State, or any other State, for that mat ter, would be proud to produce such stock. ; Hog raising in Lenoir county is becoming more and TOBACCO WILL SELL HIGH. Winston-Salem Journal: "Unless all signs fail the price of leaf tobacco will bo higher on the Winston-Salem mar ket this year than it has been in fifty years, not even ex cepting the record-breaking year of 1913. The Southern Tobacco Journal says: "Judging from the prices of tobacco on the opening sale in South Carolina, our prediction as to prices' the coming season will come true. From all the information at hand prices were more than a hundred per cent, in ad vance of last season, on opening sales. , An average 'of from thirteen to fifteen cents for first curings means, of course, a greater average for the remainder of the crop, We will not be surprised if prices for the entire crop dn the United States do not approach the prices of 1913, when tobacco sold for a higher average than it did for fifty years, with the exception of one year. There is go ing to be a disposition on the part of farmers to rush their tobacco to market as rapidly as possible. The South Carolina crop will be practically all sold by Sep tember 1. In the meantime farmers should be as care ful as possible in handling their tobacco, and market it in is pood condition as possible. "Fortunate indeed will be the tobacco fairmer who was b!s to conquer the drouth and wet weather and plant ini cultivate a good crop. However, his good fortune is made posf ible by the ill forune of hundreds of other farm ers who were unable to find plants to set in the spring, or having found the plants, later had their crops destroy. ed by the flood. The short crop for which the drouth and flood are responsible is in a large measure, the cause )f the prospects for high prices in this city next fall Proportionate low round trip fares from other stations. .Ask your tick et agent for additional information, or write the undersigned.
