Announcement of the death of Asa Biggs, young news paper editor, will be received with regret and' sorrow by the members of the North Carolina Press Association.

He was a live-wire and a hustler. . TAKING THE SAFE COURSE. Unquestionably, it must be ause of regret to every rifeht .thinking citiien of this community that the court officials deomed it necessary to ask the Governor to send troops here to protect the negro, Jim Miller, on trial for his life, but It is much better that extra precaution should have been taken than for any violence or unlawful aft to have been committed...'.-. The Free Press found little Indication of any temper or feeling on the "part of the large crowd which assembled for the hearing, but late in the day Thursday, there were Tumors of threats afloat which haul somewhat the ap pearance of being well -founded. These rumbles wore so persistent that Judge Calvert and Solicitor Powers fctt that It was best not to take the chance of any outbreak when .the verdict was rendered, should it not be in ac cordance with public sentiment, representative of those from whom the rumors antl threats came. The Free Press haa been inclined to feel that there was no occasion for alarm, for It has confidence that the law- abiding people of this community will see that the laws are upheld, and it refltcta no particular creffft on the communty, of course, when the authorities find it neces sary to call out militia to guarantee that situation. Be that as it may, there are tuose In most every com munsty Who are easily excited ami lack self -control, and who might under pressure of excitement, commit acts whh-h would bring shame to the community. Viewed from that standpoint, and as stated before, the officers have no doubt followed the wise and sane course. SHOULD ACCEPT JURY'S VERDICT UNFEELINGY. In connection with the trial of Jim Miller, it should be knpt In nuind that the selection of the jury was carefully and painstakingly made. The twelve men upon whom rest ed the responsibility of hearing the evidence and deciding the fate of the man, were chosen because Miey could conscientiously dylare that they were not prejudiced, biased or possessed of any opinions one way or another whiih could not be altered by the evidence. Every other safeguard to Insure justice was taken. The verdict may have been rendered before this is printed. At the writing, the jury is listening to the court's charge. Whatever may be the outcome, The Free Pre.M urges acceptance on the part of the people. It may not be In accordance with the view -of all. In fact, there may be many citizens of the community who have not heard all the eviik-nce ami who have made up their minds befoj'e hand, that Inay not be satisfied, or find them . selves in agreement with the verdict of the twelve men. The jury, however, is in better position, having heard with open minds the whole story, to render a just and impartial verdict, than is the general .public which may be swayed by rumor or prejudiced by opinions based on incomplete information. This is the spirit unquestionably that ought to control in the acceptance of every verdict, where there is so much interest and feeling. Occasions arise soinettmee where juries fail to bring in just verdicts, but such in fftanree are greatly In the minority, The Free Presa be lieves, and criticism then should be constructive and not conducive to violence. medical graduates in the country every year is greatly North Carolina, below the nwrtber needed to even maintain the present I Lenoir County. inadequate -average, it cannot be expected that North j NOTICE.

OSBORNE'S ADVICE.

Only those who regard the weak and criminal as outewts tUriully damned, deserving only the dun geon and the galley stocks of the medieval days, will contend tht Mr. Osborne's thiory is wronR, The Free Presa believes that public sentiment today favors prison reform and recognites the necessity there for. It's a question, howeveT, of great importance, re quiring the beet minds in Its solution. Prison reform cannot be successfully and . practically accomplished through fanaticism, or the efforts of extremists. Mr. Osborne has given a great deal of thought ami practical tudy to this big question. He even went so far as to serve a voluntary sentence in the prison over which he afterward presided as warden, in order to get Jthe view point from the inside. Qle instituted reforms in Sing Sing wbkh although they brought sharp criticism upon him from some sources, proved to be practical and worthy of emulation. The Free Press believes that his advice is most valuable and it hopes (that hia coming to the State will be the mean of advancing the cause of prison reform in a practicable and sensible way.

Raleigh News and Observer: "Upon the supposition of the correctness of the assertion of the Governor that the purchase and operation of a shipping line would make more money every year than the total cost of state gov ernment and reduce the proscnt burdensome freight rates, certain organizations have approved the suggested plan. If it will do what the Govemo'r waid in hia message, it would receive the approval of all good citisens when tho bill is amended so as to take out the provision transferring the functions of the Legislature to the executive depart ment of government. But legislators who think for thenw selves and the bulk of the prudent people of the SUte are 'from Missouri and must be shown.' The ical and earnest ness and confidence of the proponents of the bill do not answer the questions as to whether the suggested measure is practical. Facts and figures to prove that such pur chase and operation is a good proposition from men who ; have had experience in that line of business are awaited. "The town of Washington, located on the Pamlico, had its early prosperity in tb line of freight ships that brought goodd to that port, the gools from that point I being transported by water and wagons on plank roads j to the interior of the State. If the proposed shipping , board is practicable the people of Washington would be the first to advocate it and be the beneficiaries. After ' a discussion of "the measure at a well attended meeting ' of representative citizens of Beaufort County resolu , tion was akpted declaring the proposed measure 'a dan gerous state pblicy, wholly impracticable and requiring the expenditure of untold millions.' , "The proposition is to try the experiment with cer tain IKS upon the proceeds of an issue of two million dol lars of lax-evemnt -hnnrfo THa WiMliinirlAn nanla a r.

The advertising plan rnust fit the business to which it is applied.. There are no ready-to-wear advertising plans; each one must be tailor made. The purpose of advertising is to increase businesS"and not to relieve any one of his arduous duties. The manufacturer's salesman who regards advertising as a substitute for his own efforts has. missed , the point. His efforts are needed more : than ever to support the advertising and , put it across. His reward is larger sales. Likewise, the merchant who chooses the advertised brands because they' are "soft and easy" selling, has overlooked the essential idea. Certainly they sell eas ier; but this is not the big important truth. Rather, he should see that the manufacturer's advertising is an instru ment put into bis hands for increasing his volume and speeding up hia turnov er. Looking at the matter in thja light, he ill bend every effort to co-operate with "Ihe advertising and seek to make it pay him additional profits. . . s '' - Advertisng is not a form of perpetual motion that goes on forever without hu man assistance. The biggest problem any man has ib settle after he has deter mined to advertise, and decided how to advertise, is this: How can I useytny ad vertising so as to get the most out of it?

When these conditions are fulfilled it does a type of work for which three is no efficient substitute.
