' THURSDAY EVENING, NOVEMBER 9. 1916 v Winjor loss, we are going to smile. e The boyhood game of leap-frog is a tame affair com pared to the strenuous mental ups-and-downs of the past two day. At the time of writing, the suspense is still bother some. At press ttaattfmsjr be different. Regardless of how goes the country, North Caroiini Democrats have nothing to'be ashamed of. A solid con gressional delegation is evidence that they have done their part. Monday we thought U was all over but the shouting, nd by Tuesday night we were confident of having jus: causa for much hilarity. We haven't lost our joy noi: they are being held intact, to be released, wo hope, not later than Friday. t Tuesday night's returns at the Courthouse gave our Republican friends the laugh. Wednesday's reports turn v ed the tables and gave the Democratic hosts a chance - to smite. Who gets the last laugh, which Is always best Is yet somewhat uncertain. We are so hopeful that w will get it, however, that we are keeping our audible ' smiles in tune. ?; Go to the Fjrst Paptist Church Sunday School auditor ium tonight at 8 o'clock amT forget the election entjrma with an hour spent with the Mcistersingers Lyceum at traction, and not only anjoyif pleajant and wholesome ; evening, but help a good cause, the establishment of a playgrounds In Kinston.

We hope that a state legislature has Se?n elected along with him, which will dry up the cesnpools of lalguity In Jacksonville and Pensacola and other ship- ping points, which have fattened on their ill-gotten gain ' by their interference with the enforcement of the laws ' of the dry territory of adjoining states. AN IMPORTANT CASE' PENDING. The liquorites continue to show fight in some sections and are endeavoring to upset laws made by the good people of the country for the protection of the populace against the terrible consequences of the use of liquor. The Supreme Court of the United States is now consid ering the validity of the Webb-Kenyon interstate liquor shipment law, a test case being brought by a West Vir ginia distillery. For some years, ever since the temperance forces gain ed sufficient ground to exert an influence for good, and drive out liquor in various states and localities, their, ef forts have been handirappel seriously because it was possible for the wet neighbors of the dry states and com munities to unload quantities of the outlawed stufT und:r the license and with the permission of the United States Government. The Webb-Kenyon law was one of the most righteous enactments of the present administration, looking to the protection of dry territory. Very naturally, when the liquoriles have been driven out of some states they have camped on the lrder l'nc of the most con venient wet territory and have flooded the mails with circulars and order blanks and bought advertising space in the newspapers in dry territory wherever it was pro curable. Happily, many of the newspapers have been self-respecting enough and have had sufficient regard for the laws prevailing in their territory to decline to accept liquor advertisements. This has not been universally ths rase and consequently U has been necessary for thi dry states, many of them, at least, to draft anti-advertising bills which have been enacted and put into-operation. The decision cf the Supreme Court Is awaited by the ... , ... . ... , country with great interest, it involves a principle, which makes It one of the most important cases to be reviewed by the Supreme Court in its history. ' The value of the fire drill was exemplified Wednesday ; when the youngsters in the Richard Lewis primary school were marched to safety befc:-e any of thorn knew there was real danger. In the words of a small boy: ;'. We just thought it was one of those "what-d'you-call- M,it" (Are drills, the word being supplied for him.) "and , none of us were scared n bit." Happily the bla?. was '" quickly extinguished and did no serious hurt. WHAT OTHERS SAY WILMINGTON AFTER PACKING PLANT. Wilmington Star: "Orangeburg, S. C, having orKa . . i l ... Vtta r.ii I . . ... nizeu a packing nouse company iasi winmu a ed it up by organizing a creamery. A creamery is a trilateral industry along with the livestock industry that U always piorr.piti by puk'vnS industry. Lwt r will come a cheese factory, and yet that Is not all, since a large growth of the livestock industry in a state menns a tannery sooner or later. Thtrs is no other farm industry with so many posi bilittes in it as the livestock industry, and once fiast-.'ni North Carolina promotes the raising of cattle, hogs, sheep and goats, the result will astonish even those who have bcon convinced that the opportunity in this section for a livestock industry is one of inconceivable magnitude. The Star, at times, has emphasized the opportunity for .ki'Ji a creamery and a packing house, and one Wilming ton has either both will be a surety. We must keep in mind the Indisputable fact that a livestock industry is the greatest means open to us for development. We have other farm and industrial opportunities as well, but we can't get away from the fact that the livestock state of Iowa has developed more rural wealth than ten of our cotton states combined. Thatsurdly ought to make us ap preciate what wealth producing factors are livestock rais ing, packing houses, creameries, tanneries, and cheese factories. Wilmington is on the right track in persisting in her packing house enterprise, and the $20,000 to $25,000 ad ditional capital stock should 'je subscribed at once so no time may be lost in beginning operations and present ing the plans for promoting a great meat animal Industry in tnis section, im atutpiauinues nvn- tire iuu nlvilL lul us lo delay the vigorous prosecution of something that will develop this section and bring to it a desirable class of home seekers. By reason of the fact that Orangeburg is to have a livestock market, Western parties already are negotiat ing for stock farms in the South Carolina counties em braced in the Orangeburg territory. That is one of the results of providing a market for livestock." f vl 43 t. 41 S- the J ,-..j.ia., : 4- t ---v I 1 i Satisfy! that s for a cigarette to thing do It's nothing for a cigarette to just taste good lots of cigarettes may do that.
