' We are not convinced thai Kington will support a league busefoall team, but we have enough confidence in her ability to do so to hope that she will. The coal miners are striking but the average consumer will not be inclined to worry so long as the thermometer remain above the 80 mark. THE RAILROAD QUESTION. In Friday's Free Press was printed a chart setting forth in most comprehensive fashion the various plan for railroad legislation that are being considered by Congress. x The chart was devised by Richard Waterman, secre tary of the Railroad Committee of the Chamber of Com merce of the United States, and was printed through courtesy of Nation's Busiw which carried it in its Oct'iber iHsuc. ' The railroad question is one of thetmost important that has confronted the American people. How to afford the best service at least cost ami at th6 same time protect the stockholdcra by insuring to them reasonable and just re turns on their investments, is a problem that is puzzling the best brains in the country. So intimately does the solution of the railroad question have to do with the warp and woof of the individual life of the nation, it is essential that mature thought and con sideration be given the many plans that have been sug gested and that are under advisement. The Free Press believes that the rank and file of the citizenry of this country disapproves of Government ownership or operation. A return to the owners under stricter government supervision that will safeguard agaimt the abuses and mismanagement of the past is perhaps the most nopuliir iplan. That, however, carries 1 grave responsibilities. Were it possible to simply turn the roads over to their owners like so much chattels, the solution would be easy, flut the Government is obligated to nerve not only the public but to protect the stockhold ers as well and how best to do that is a question that must have very careful thought. ' A study of the chart will afford a more intelligent un derstanding of the problem. If agitators wduld study how to get various contending factions, classes, races, elc together rather than strive to divide them the Entire country would be the bet ter therefor, .' . . . What's in name will have an inning in Raleigh when the proprietors of the John Rotrinson Circus contests the right of the "Robinson's United Shows" to wear the cog nomen of Robinson. The leaven of the virtua of the daylight saving seems to be working in spite of .Congressional opposition. De troit has decided not to tunn her clocks back even for tho winter and Harrisburg citizens are circulating petitions asking council to enact a daylight saving ordinance. The reports coming from Chapel HilJ ,this year are very encouraging. All records for the University enroll ment have been broken and 1;286 registered during the first ten days of the 1910-20 term. Of this number moro than ' four hundred were freshman. Surely with such splendid interest in higher education the youth of North Carolina is preparing itself for the larger responsibili ties of citizenship that come with the new order of things ami the reconstruction problems.

With the coming of the boll weevil to these parts it be hooves the farmers of Eastern Carolina to get ready for stock raising and other diversification which will enable them to laugh at the weevil and turn his advent into a blessing instead of a menace and disaster.

This was one of the most successful, if not the mol Buccrtutful sale pf its kind that has come within my knowledge. Ycur sale force is composed of high class business men of unfailing courtesy and unquestioned integrity. I think a large part of the success of the kale watt due to the effort of your Mr. K. W. Cobb, who advcrthied the i slcfor you. He made a thorough ranvasa of that section and the sale was attended by almost all of the representative farmers find business men in that fommunity. I don't think the quality of his work could have been im proved upon. I congratulate you upon the caliber of men in your employ. While I know that you are not in business entirely from philanthropic motives, 4 do say that I don't think there is any line pf business that makes for the upbuilding of our State like the rutting up of large areas of farm lands and locating an owner on each tract, and 1 believe the plan of selling the land at auction is better for all parties concerned than private sales.
