SEPTE.MUEIt 4, 1916 Unusual acumen was displayed by the Ashoville police who discovered that no hoof-prints to sustain the story of the self-alleged victim of a hold-up man on a white charger, wore visible at the seen a of the attack.

ARE CROSSINGS SATISFACTORY? Kinston 4a spending a large sum for paving, i a stiroet' and making them modem and satisfactory thoroughfare. Too much money is being paid out not to have every dotal! In good order, In this connection the question tha arises fa 'whether the board crossing;, which Council per mitted the railroads to put down, are going to give rr vlce in keeping with the smooth asphalt roadways. r far, we bolieve that question must be answered in the neg ative. Ordinarily railroads, standard as well as. street cs lines, have been required to pave their crossings and be tween their tracks,. 'in the case of usage of the atreeU for right of way, in keeping with the pavement being put down. Usually brick is' preferable because it can bo re moved when track repairs are needed. In Kinston's case Council granted the request r.f the railroads to put down , wood crossings, which The Free Press .undiratands were guaranteed to lie satisfactory and lo be subject to re moval Is found not to be. S far few, if any. of them; crossings have been fixed so as to avoid the jar n-ul jostle to vehicles. Particularly "jumpy" in the crossing of the Norfolk Southern at Heritage street. In this (in? the wood docs, not extend all x'na way juve.ii but soft tin-. 1 THE STRIKE AVERTED. : As was apparent from the time President Wilson took the matter of avoiding the strike of railroad men to the flior of Congress, the tie-up of the railroad traffic of this country has iwen averted by the enactment of "double quick" emergency legislation, giving to the employes ths principal point for which they contended. The parage of the Adumson bill muit be regarded as an emergency measure; the matter cannot remain In its pres ent tatc; t ehstrike has been averttd and for that Presi dent Wilson must be given full credit; Congress did well to stop with the bill providing for the eight-hour day and to abide the time, when the matter can be carefully stud ied to enact more permanent and remedial legislation. s The country has been saved the condition of distress, which would have been inevitable had ths brotherhoods been able to stop anything like as many trains as they claimed to be "'n position to do; that salvation is only temporary, however; no safeguard against a repetition next year because of further demands by the trainmen of demands from some other ihrotherhood, has been pro vided; such provision must be -made, if the great major ity of the peoplo of this country are to be protected from the whims e.rftl desires of the few, be they employers or employes, it matters not. Congress will no doubt set in motion at once those step which will put it in possession of the information neces sary to. intelligent and effective legislation, which will hot only guarantee justice to the employer and employe, but more particularly to the general public, which pays the bill regardless and which suffers most from such cond tions as seemed imminent last week. Such disputes cannot be settled without the agency of a third and disinterested party, who is vested with au thority to render a decision which must be. accepted. Very naturally the railroad managers or the employing class as th! case may be, stand out with more or less firmness for their side, and the employes do likewise, the result being a hopeless deadlock. The resort to emergency leg islation such as was employed to avert this particular tie-up, where the representatives of one side to the con trovcrsy, knowing that they had the power to stagnate the traffic of ths country, stood threateningly and apec tacnhirly proclaiming that no rescinding order would bs sent out until legislation to their liking had actually been enacted, is dangerous in its precedent, and The Free press believes that the people of the country, when they shall have had time to digest the situation, will demand of their representatives in Congress the taking of such steps as wiH forever preclude the necessity for like legislation or for situations, which required it, to again arise.

BRIEFS IN THE NEWS OTHER EAST CAROLINA TOWNS AND COUNTIES WHAT OTHERS SAY WORRISOME SECRETIVENESS. Wilmington Star: "In his Maine speech, Col. Roosevelt denounced hypheni3m and urged the people fo vote for Hughes. Will the Colonel please state whether or not his candidate for president endorses his position on this question. The enly waywe'ean find out is through the Colonel, r.s Judge Hughes remains sepulchurally silent about it Can the Colonel explain the tombstone attitudf of the otherwise loquacious nominee of the Chicago c vent ion? The Colonel and the Judge may be 'practical men,' and understand each other, but is it fair to 100,000,- 000 of vts to be kept in the dark? The secretiveness of the thing is worrisome." , HOW THE MIGHTY FACE. Statesville Landmark: "Former President Taft, in Chi cago to attend the meeting of the American Bar Associa tion, told reporters that Chicago convinced him he was ut of politics. 'I walked four blocks through ths down town streets and male one purchase in a store without tny one apparently recognising me,' the former President said. All of which means that when a man leaves the presidency of the United States, usually his day is done. fhey tcld a story on cx-Presldent Hayes that when he at- :cnded ths -funeral of President Garfield, less than a year tfter he had left the White House, that the only person vho spoke to him was a policeman, who told him to get if the grass." f A one-week term of Superior Court, for the trial of criminal cas es, Judge Lyon presiding, was eon vened at New Bern today. The Hope well wife-poisoning case is set for trial during the week, as well as two other jinuTder cases and an attempt ed assault case. The torpedo boat Foote, a naval reserve training ship, is .to be carried to Norfolk soon for extensive re pairs. The boat is now at New E'arn. Detective Geo. N. Howard has been investigating robberies of Norfolk Southern cars at Goldsboro. Improvements with a view to draw ing Winter patronage from the North are contemplated for the old Colony inn at Beaufort It is planned to lay out golf links and provide othe amusements. Congressman J. H. Small will de liver a waterways address at Green ville on September 12. (Greenville's 'first asphalt paving is being laid.

No other car you meet can match the Super-Six performance, IT IS NEVER TAXED Then the Super-Six is never taxed. It is rarely run at even half-laed.
