The press and people of the State
are loud in their praises of Hon.
Ashley Home, for his generous gift
of $10,000 to aid in the erection of a
monument on Capital Square in Ral
eigh, in honor to the women of the
Confederacy. Ashley Home, like
Jule Carr, is one of North Carolina's
greatest asseU. Both have done
great things for North Carolina and
her people. The accumulation of
wealth by these gentlemen is a bless
ing to the State.
Rocky Mount's Poultry Show was
a big success. Now let the progres
sive business men of that ci'y
through their Chamber of Com
merce take active steps in the mat
ter of making Rocky Mount the Fair
City for Nash and Edgecombe coun
ties. There are hundreds of farm
ers throughout the two counties
ready and willing to give their co
operation. The two counties could
' out ud one of the best fairs in the
State next fall.

It is passing strange the claim is
made that "everywhere the cotton
farmers are holding their product
off the market," when you have but
to look at port receipts to ascertain
that thus far they have marketed
more cotton this season than ever
before. It is true that some farm
i
era are holding on to a part of their
product, but the (treat majority of
them have about sold out.
The magnificent new Y. M. C. A.
Building at Rocky Mount was form
ally opened on Monday afternoon.
'Not only is the building a credit to
Rocky Mount, but all Eastern North
Carolina, and will long stand as a
monument to the Atlantic Coast
Line and the citizens of Rocky
Mount, who provided means for its
erection.
Since 'Castalia Township has voted
$15,000 bonds for road improvement
the question is asked by the citizens,
"Why is it these bonds have : not
been sold?" Possibly the attorneys
representing the Castalia Road Com
missioners may be ; able to throw
some light on the situation, v
' .The citizens of Rocky Mount have
for several weeks past been endeav
oring to select a slogan for the city,
but thus far they have been unable
to "name the baby." , Suppose they
leave it up to the ladies, if the men
cannot come to an agreement.
Then there will be fun.
The time approaches for that class
of farmers who are not content to
stay in one place long at a time to
b 'n loading up their household
i :i3 and "light out" for some
oiler roosting place for the next
tv V'3 months. . '

The Graphic is making an ef
fort to make some needed im
provements in' the plant and also
meet some Obligations that must
be met by January, 1st. 1912. It
will be a hard matter for us to
do so. unless our friends and sub
scribers do their duty.
Can We Depend On You?
. There are several hundred sub
scribers whose time has expired
Sbr soon will expire. If each one
of these will pay us $1.00 on ac
count or renewal we can easily
meet our obligations and make
the improvements so much need
ed in this office.
Look At Your Label
and see just how, your' subscrip
tion account stands, and send in
your renewal at once. We have
been patient, lenient, and have
manifested confidence m you.
The amount is small and to hand
or send it in will in no way em
barrass you.
Have We Been Loyal?
For the past seventeen years
The Graphic has "stood by" Nash
County and her people as has no ;
other newspaper; the longest pe
riod any newspaper has ever ex
i isted in Nash County. The pa
per has not been run as a money
making proposition, but iri the :
interest of Nash County regard
less of section. It has been run
at a personal sacrifice of the ed
itor, who has given seventeen of
the best years of his life. This,
we think, is evidence of our loy
alty. ' , : ; ,
