With the issue of this number, the Daily Journal enter upon it twenty- first year, while the Weekly Joubxsx enter upon It twenty-fifth year. The twenty-four years since the Joes hal begin its Weekly issue, later a dally and weekly, and still later a daily and aeml-weekly, which are now Issued, do not seem so long to look back upon. And yet these year hare witnessed many hard struggle for existence, when the owners of this paper have of ten wished they had tome other kind of business, from which to get a living. But during these days of hardness, the Journal had friends, who unselfishly stood by it' and made possible it con ttnuance. It is very difficult to Impress upon some people, that a newspaper is not an Individual, is not a merchant, is not something apart from the commu nity. The destruction by water or fire of a manufacturing plant In a community, would be a public calamity. The shutting down of some factory employing hundreds of people, would be a community loss, to those employed and to the tradesmen. Tet the loss of a newspaper to a com munity would in it bearing upon com munity Interests, and its Importance in preserving the diversified Interests, so cial, religious and mercantile, of the place, far eiceed all other losses that might come upon a place. The importance of liberally sustaining a newspaper, is but too little appreciated In most communities. No newspaper cen.exlst, much less prove of an increasing value to a place, which does not have the positive baek lng up of the people in the place in which it 1 published. It 1 easy to keep down a newspaper, by poor and Indifferent support, and the community which does so suffers most, for the outside public easily note the poorly supported local newspaper. In this the beginning of a new year, the Journal has to thank It local pat rons for their help in making the paper what it is. The management 1 not one that 1 satisfied with even it present ad vancement, but 1 ever ready to improve and enlarge when it patron say that their support la behind the advance ment. The Journal will ever be ahead of It city, but it doe not propose to get eo far ahead that it cease to mark the way for local Improvement, or be so distant as to be unable to hear and go to the rapport of local affair which may de mand it influence and work. It la the one positive factor by which New Bern can beknowa ta the outsid world. -" - POLICAL DANGER PROM WITHIN. , " From all part of the State the local ' newspaper are telling of the many can dldates seeking nomination, and how the nomination for each office ha boat of seeker. , The Journal sees no algal on the part of Its friends, the enemy on the ; ether side of politics, to cause the Demo emtio, candidate reel coaoera in this '- year's elections In North Carolina ' Bat there Isa, wrss fur than that . which comes from a asaered political enemy and that Is ths dissension bred among friends of the esase pelitleal felth.

It la the openness of the field, the one sldednea of the election, which is going to aklasately bring bad result to De mocracy. The political danger for North Caro lina DesnocraU this year of 1909, I with in It own rank, not from attack on the part of political enesmiee without. THE THOMAS FOWLER DE CISION. The recent Congressional committee election decision on the Thomas-Fowler contest, In the Third North Carolina District, doe not call for special com ment. The Journal, in the early stage of the contest ex pressed Itself, that there was really but one side, and that was the side of Mr. C. R. Thomas, who was the man elected. The unanimous report of the commit tee was favorable for Mr. Thomas which proved the correctness of the Journal's position on the matter. The settlement of this controversy Is more than the mere determination of the offiolal status of each contestant, for the contest meant a disturbed condttlon In this congressional district, while it lasted. And this disturbed condition caused Injury to the material interests of the people of the district. To the credit of Congressman Thomas it must bo said, that throughout the con test he has kept steadily and successful ly at work In securing national appro priations for improvements In his dis trict, and has not neglected In a single instance to get all that was possible for his constituents. Naturally, the election contest has in a degree hindered Congressman Thomas from doing all that be was capable of, In fully attending to the many details of his work. Now that the case Is decided Mr. Thomas can feel that no suspicion of a cloud attaches Itself to his title, and with tbe election contest restraint re moved, he can show to best personal ad vantage and do better honor to tbe peo ple of the Third North Carolina Con gressional District, of which he is the representative. Deafness Cannot he Cored by local applications as they cannot reach the dlsessed portion of the ear. There Is only one way to cur deafness, and that Is by constitutional remedies. Deafness la caused by an Inflamed con dition of the mucos lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sound or Imperfect hearing, and when it Is en tirely closed, Deafness Is the result, and unless the Inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal con dition, hearing will be destroyed for ever, nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which Is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucos sur face.
