MONDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 11, 1916 Latest ." salutation f ths paper drummers "Have yoc ' heard what news-print is quoted at today!" '. ' ''.,'tl,V . ( The Citizen of Oyster 'Bay is to appear in the movies. Plenty of action lor the said picture is evidently desired. l . - , A contemporary' speaks of the "problem of the boy." We arise to moke a correction. It should read the "prob lems." ' , v,-r t And now before the dear people can accustom them selves to the six cent loaf, ithe bakers have standardised the ten-cent variety- . New Bern Sun Journal: "It is getting; about time for the Bremen to te reported off Beaufort or Morehead City again . f Friend Dunn, why not off New Born T r Major 8, Glenn Brown of Greensboro, who found it ftc difficult to have a place made for him in the Federalized National Guard, now realizes, -perhaps, that the last shall be first, fie ia on his way to the border. Richmond News Leader: "Dr. Woods Hivtcheson says it is hard to kill a poet. Since one comes to think of it poets are scarce" these days." But then, it is more diffi cult to refrain from slaying some of the would-be poets ; Somebody accuses the mail order octopus of spreading infantile paralysis; The old sinner is guilty of most every other crime and one more" will .perhaps not make his impervious hide more vulnerable.. " . i ' N . : The editor of the 'Wilsoii Times, w note, is-wearing - "no trespass" signs these days Be has warned a belllg . ere irt patron that his approach within fifteen feet of the person of the editor will be the signal for "dropping him in his tracks." It ia to be hoped that the differences will be smoothed over and that nojtragedy will result. We learn from the esteemed Raleigh Times that there is some complaint reaching the Corporation Commission because "the -inalienable rights of 1 passengers to stick their heads out of the car windows and have ithem knock' ed off by passing telegraph poles, mail cranes and other obstacles" have beendenied them because of new plans In car construction, and it is further said that the Cor poration Commission sides with the "imposed" upon pub- He. , "Professional identifier" is the latest vocation in pro hibition Alabama, where the law requires the thirsty who patronize the express route to be identified before ship ments can be delivered o them. It is sai that in some localities there are so many "strangers" and the occa sions for identifiers have become so numerous, that the otherwise unemployed have come to the relief of the "distressed" mt twenty-five and fifty cents per identifica tion. Now a good opportunity for the revenue collectors is to put a license of about tl.00 per identification on the "professional identifyer.' MR. GIFFORD PINCIIOT VAPORIZES., ; Not all the Progressives but most of them will sup port President Wilson for a second term; that is, if they are truly progressive, they will. They have no other al ternative. ' , - , Mr. Gilford Pinchot is a more or less prominent exam ple of those who are neither Democrats fir Republicans, who finds in the Administration of President Wilson many shortcomings to criticize and who seems confident that the country's continued prosperity and welfare depends upon the election of Mr. Hughes. . Mr. Pinchot has set forth his, position Jn a rather lengthy circular letter which he is sending to the press of the country with the privilege of printing. . The Free Press doesn't care to give space to Mr Pin chot's article; His criticisms are not warranted by fact Mr. Pinchot avers that being neither a Democrat nor Re- f publican, but a Progressive, he has to either vote for Mr Wilson or Mr. Hughes. He professes, to have thought well of President Wilson in the outset of his administra- Hon, but charges that his change of view ia because he has learned that "President Wilson has a greater power than any other man fn public life to say one thing but to do another, and get away with it" Mr. Pinchot al leges that the facts justifying this charge are common knowledge, but he fails to enumerate them. He does cite 3e Luaitenia incident as one of the instances, but in crit icizing President Wilson's course in the German contro versy, Mr. Pinchot very shrewdly emphasizes his owr. iistaste for war and proclaims that there was no neec for war but of courage to give peace with self-respect Jie very course pursued most successfully by Mr. jWil ion. National defense, , Panama Canal tolls, and othej questions which have given rise to more or less discus sion are touched upon and President Wilson's handling of Vll of them Js criticized. Mr. Pinchot attribute- thr oresent peaceful condition of this country to its 'proverb 'al good luck," and says k respect to the national de fense that this good fortune alone "has kept us from pay ng the bitterest price for his (Mr. Wilson's) unforgiv able neglect" - Mr. Pinchot winds up by proclaiming that he "can't support Mr, Wilson because he can't trust him hat he does not do what he says," but on the other hand "Mr. Hughes does," and therefore, ho will support the latter. It is to be regretted that Mr. Pinchot finds that he can not support Mr. Wilson. In fact, the loss of one vote nay cause, the President some concern, but Mr. Pinchot't vrtlcle, patterned, as H seems to be, after the weak and mpty vaporlngs of his choice for the Presidency, fails o say anything about the currency bill, the farm loan ac' ,lnd other achievements of the Wilson adnMnistratoor) vhich are recognized as examples of the most construct ve legislation of the past iwveral generations. Mr. Pin hot undertakes to detract from President Wilson credit luo him for maintenance of peace and for the country' nrospertty. He falls to reckon with the righteous fact hat the public pralaes the bridge that carries it over, o, we are not printing Mr, Plnchot's article because it Is not worth the space. WHAT OTHERS SAY . Subscribe to 7 he Free Press CIVIC "SLACKERS." ' - Columbia State: "Two years ago England jggtldenly found herself in peri and needing every man to give hif bwt for his country on the battlefield or on the sea, oi in the munitions factories. But even in such a cisls th call for volunteers uncovered some who sought to evade the summons. The nation called them 'slackers' and thr word has gone forth intd all English-speaking countries "The safety and welfare of a people may be threatened by tther enemies, however, than such as come with big guns and bayonets. ' There are those within a State that seek to prey upon its people, who see in laws and Juriet only obstacles to their game, who would sow corruptior for out of corruption their harvest comes, who would make gam out of the human weakness for stimulants, fo gambling and for immoral sensuality. They are the in veterats enemies of law and of any administrator who en forces law. : "If the forces of corruption and lawlessness should gain the day Tuesday next, it would be undoubtedly In no small part due to 'slackers,' to men who know quite well how urgent is the call, but deliberately neglect their own duty to go and Vote because they selfishly rely on others tc save the State, This is the very essence of 'slacker's' ptrit He excuses himself by saying, 'there will be plen ty of others I need not trouble myself. trouble required, there is no mors important business for you to attend to that day than to go and declare yourself effectively against a return to the Blease regime. . Indif ference to that duty and neglect of it for any reason short of insuperable obstacles will smack of the same unpatriot ic selfishness shown by men who in military crises put their own interests before those of their country to the disgust of all men." - - er that hi can't get himself in touch with producers who-are not their own consumers of all they produce? The producers of flour in Minneapolis and the producers of Chicago and Kansas City backhand have a nice way of reaching consumers who are able to consume. Just to tell you the truth, the main thing that keeps buyers and tellers from getting together is the price. Ws can get in touch with tha produc&rs by means of cash, but it Js so much easier or consumers and middle men' to get together over the telephone,. Jt is quite often the case that the middleman is" expected to send a 6-cent head cif 'cabbage tm blocks when- 4t will cost 1ro .nearly one a block to send it." .
