If the "Old Dom(nlon"'liquor dealers'; customers jren erally have been aa jibera) in their patronage as have , the North Carolina dnsunwra (based on heavy railrond traffic in liquors), there should be little danger of vi!ut- ing the new law by having an over supply on November 1.

One week from today and the American people must decide whether they approve the maintenance of puuee and promotion of prosperity. All other issues fade intc insignificant nothingness. "Peace and Prosperity" is the slogan that should stir every red -blooded American uno rally him to the colors of Wood row Wilson. Former President Tsft, following the example of tht former Justice, digs into ancient history and undertake. to make mountain out of a mole-hill and decry Mr. Wil son's Mexican policy. If iMr. Taft would take the trou Lle to go ba'ck a little bit further and discuss for tho tdi fication of the American people HIS Mexican policy ii would be of interest to the average citizen to know just why he saw fit to unload the Mexican situation on Mr Wilson as he did. The American people will probably not be unmindful of the fact that the Mexican prohlerr was Inherited 'from Mr. Taft's administration. controversy which has come so close to causing Tl break between the United States and Germany on several occa. sions in the past will not have to be reopened. If it is found that the Gi-rman submarine wantonly vio lated international law and sunk without warning the Marina it will be well in thn investigation to consider the motive; to ascertain if there is a "niRtrer in de woodpile"; to sea what influence, if any, the Hyphenates have brought to bear; to determine if there is a conspir acy in German-American circles, allegedly anti-Wilson and pro-Hughes. The tactics of falsehood, slander, mis representation and mud-slinging, reported to by the op ponents of the Wilson administration in their despot ate e:oits to prevent the re-election ( President Wilssn, would justify the assumption that '.he gang would not stop at the sinking of a ship if by doing their politi-al ends could bo served.

A committee of pastors, mayor, and newspaper repre sentatives of Kinston met MondJ- afternoon and deter mined to r-spond to the call of lie President in observ ing a definite period for solicit irg contributions for the relief of the starving Armenian knd Syrian people. Be cause of other appointments it ias not practical to ob serve the tv clays set aside by f resident Wilson in O "to iler, but Sunday, November o rd Monday the (Hh will be observed. A large commit tie of representative citi zens has b-en named by the M;Aor. This committee will probably make a house-to-houe canvass Sunday iiTtor- noon. at which time it is hoittl to have a liberal :es- ponse.
