SCPT. JUDD'S REPORT.
We have long had it in mind to
speak of the biennial report of Supt.
Zeb. V. Judd of this county. A re
port of its excellence should not go
without mention. It is thorough, ar
tistic, literary the best report, State
Superintendent Joyner says, he has
seen. -This does not tell ' of ; the
nights, however, that Mr. Judd spent
in preparing the. volume, of the tire
less, energy he displayed in making
that report so excellent, of the mass
of figures and illustrations showing
ye progress of Wake' county In the
past two years these cannot be told,
and one must examine the report to
get an idea of them.
Of it Dr. T. N. Ivey, editor of the
Norih Carolina Christian Advocate,,
says: . , ,-. ,';
w"It is seldom that you see in an
educational pamphlet so much to
please the eye, stimulate the mind
and, .cheer the . heart as you find in
.this iramphlet. " In typography it is a
VoiSc "of art, beipg profusely illus
trated. It islled with facts and fig
ures showing the wonderful growth
6f Wake county jn ..its, educational
lire. Truly has . Superintendent
Judd made-'fulVrprooT of" his minis-'
try. A superintendency like his is
a benediction to any" county". T
Indeed Mr. Judd" has given full
proof of his ministry, and jthe citi
zenship of Wake county, tvhoifcnow
him, realize it.
MR. C. C. MOORE CIRCULATION
MANAGER. -
People all over the state will be inr
terested in the announcement that
Mr. C. C. Moore has become circu
lation manager of the Observer publi
cations The Charlotte Observer,
dally and semi-weekly, and . the Even
ing Chronicle. There is hardly a bet
ter known or better loved man in the
state than Charles "Cotton" .Moore.
Not only is he known to all the farm
ers of the state, in whose interests he
has labored so faithfully, but he is
known and trusted by the business
man, many of whom gave him of
their, substance as well as sympathy
la aid , of -the cotton association
movement. ' -r .:
i"tThe newspaper men are right glad
to. welcome him to their fold. There
fsOtardly an editor or reporter in
the state of North Carolina who does
nt know Mr J Moore personally and
esteem him highly. The Times wishes
him abundant success in his new
field.' ' -
MR. WATSON AND THE SPEAK. ,
' f " ERSHIP.
,-dfte would think from all the noise
iust . he is making over the matter
"that the Georgia populist was the
LfriglnW Crisp' supporter, that he cqn
cslved his candidacy and engineered
It to a successful finish through the
house of representatives. : Bui" s'neh
is not the fact MK Watson "did not
support Judge Crisp for speaker. -Furthermore,-
Mr. Watson support
ed Mr. Watson for that ; responsible
position. N9W he has the gall to
criticise Mr.! Bryan for supporting
Mr. Springer, but has no criticism for
MrWatson for supporting himself.
, True Mr. Watson was a populist and
there was no reason why he should
give his support to a democrat, but
It doesn't lie in his mouth now to be
harping so much About it
' "First It wai the drop-stitch" hos
lery. Then came the peek-a-boo

accompaniment. And, then, In
, quick succession, and with a some
, What paralysing shock to the aensl-

Raleigh has no chance of winning
the pennant. The team was made
strong too late to accomplish that.
But the club is now as good as any in
the league, and should have the sup
port of the Raleigh people. Though
everybody knows that there is no
chance for a pennant, to swing in the
capital city, yet there are years to
come and there will be a league next
year. If the people will keep the
boys going until the end of the sea
son" we. will have a winner next sum

COMMUNICATIONS.
The sidewalks where poor people
live are in a deplorable condition as
each rain washes the "gutters" in
them deeper and deeper. V: In some
places they are curbfjtt, which makes
that end higher thait the side which
joins the private property line. Now,
most of the houses rented by. poor
people ar$Jwned by v rich people;
and, if .It is the business of property
owners to fill up the "gullies" in the
dirt sldewajks, they should be re
quired to nave it done, and not ex
pect tenant -to do it. If it Is not
the business of property owners to
keep the sidewalks fronting their
rented houses in repair, and Is the
business of the city, the city authori
ties should put them in . repair and
keep them in good condition. , And
if it is the property owner's business
to keep up sidewalks .in front of his
property and he does not attend to
it, the city should do so and charge
it to the owner's tax. On east Ca
barrus street,., north and . southside,
between 'Wilmington ; and Blount
streets, the sidewalks;, are in a de
plorable condition:' Broken brick
pavements should be repaired. As
It is, there is one adjoining the law
building on east Davie, northside,
near Fayettevllle street, which has
been broken for years, with loose
bricks "floating" aroundr much to the
annoyance of citizens,-, -who walk
around the , "hole" ; in , order to es
cape a broken ankle and a damage
suit against the city. No doubt, If
this nuisance is reported to the owner
of the' adjoining property, he will
have; the unsightly spot repaired, as
he 3s. hue- olr our best known and
most -valued citizens, v Another bro
ken brick pavement similar to the
one described aboye, is on East Davie
street, north side,' between Blount
and Person street There are others,
but let those two be put in proper
condition, or take the ' remaining
brick awaywhich would be an Im
provement over the present sidewalks
in those sections. What will excur
sionists and other visitors .'think of
Raleigh if our sidewalks are not put
in proper condition. ' The sidewalk
matter is a good subject for the con
sideration of the. Woman's Better
ment Club to tackle. The club has
already, done great, things; for Raleigh.-'
