Th report cornea from Wa&hinglon through one of the
special correspondents of Stat paper that Col. Wil
liam Jennings Bryan is considering locating on his re
cently acquired farm in the western part of the State at
ard of the Rocky Mount Telegram cannot go unnoticed. ' GOING TIIE ROUNDS.
Our contemporary 'says! '
"I Kinston reaping the whirlwind right now?
The question might) certainly bo asked and k
looks as though it doesn't matter how good the
old city may be of late, ahe cannot slip into ob
livion along with the rest of the law-abiding.
God-fearing communities of the State. The latest
horror came on Wednesday when the world was
appraised of the suicide and murder of it promi
nent dentist and citizen, whose misdoings are
' said to have been traced to a debauch by the man,
while a young wife had taken him to fields anew
in hopes of mending his awful addiction to drink.
If this were all Kinston's date line wouldn't hard
ly be thought of in its connection, but it Is not
and a lynching, jmurder, and a Campaign of
crime has certainly given that city in 1916. any- . ! ,
thing but desirable reputation. Are her sow
, inge of the past, In licensed vice now reaping a
whirlwind? . .": , X:-"iiit-'"-f:, --:.r
The article really doeent need much comment s Any
body familiar with Kinston can Tead between the lines
that it is not prompted by any good motive sincerely soli
citous of the welfare of Kinston, but rather is a crea
ture of that green-eyed demon, jealousy." For the bene
fit of those who do not know the true conditions we deem
it necessary to give space to some correction.
Our contemporary wonders why Kinston cannot "slip
into oblivion along with the rest of the law-aMding, God
fearing communities of the State." Kinston doesn't want
to slip into oblivion, is the best reason that we can off" v.
' Then, our contemporary proceeds to criticize Kinston
because one of Hs citizens fell a victim to that curse,
which has blighted many homes and which is not local
of, sectional in the alightest degree.
But to cap the climax, our contemporary concludes by
saying: "If thl were all , but lynching, murder and
a campaign of crime has given to that cky in ' 1916 any
thing but a desirable reputation. , The Telegram must
know, if it knows anything, that Kinston had nothing
whatever to do with the lynching; that Its fair name was
brought into the matter only because lawless mob from
another community aaw fit to commit a deed here in vio
lation f the law. As to "the campaign of crime," we
know of no occurrence or aeries of events which would
warrant any such characterization.
Lot our contemporary tell us about something that it is
doing and that its community is doing to lift; it out of that
place of oblivion, which k would load us to believe
is occupied "contentedly. At least, it will come nearer
fulfilling its mission if it will write about thoso things
that it knows more about and adhere a little moro care
fully to the facts. '

WHAT OTHERS SAY
HIDEBOUND SECTARIANISM.
Wlnaton-Salem Journal: "Just why people and com
munities should want men of certain religious sectJ and
political faiths in the positions that they may have tc
offer is a rather peculiar thing, yet there are people who
would not take a pill given by a doctor of another creod
or faith than their own.' It may be hard1 to believe, but
right here in Winston-Salem not long ago a man decided
to do without something he really needed when he found
that he would hava to purchase it from a man belonging
to another church. In discussing this tendency, tho,

SOME CANARDS CANT BE OVERLOOKED.
. Tho Free Press is, as a rule, too busy to pay more
than passing attention to the holier-than-thou attitude
assumed by some of its neighborlnsr eontemporariea who,
because of Kinston's enviable publicity prestige and its
munificent growth and progress, see fit to stoop from
' the'r high calling' tosayunktnd and baseless things
aiout Kinston and to exaggerate the unfortunate crimes,
which occur hero as they do in every other liko com
nvunlty, but in no larger proportion. The following can-
wis asked to what church he belonged. He answered the
question and was told that it was mi exactly what was
hoped, but it might do. Then he was asked his politic

"As a Nation we do not allow church doctrines to be
