MUNICIPAL STANDING" PAT - There is an element of cowardice in "standing pat," a piece of advice f a political character which is credited to the late Senator Hanna. It is special ly of a cowardly nature if given to any organization, party or person, which has need to progress, to go forward. This is particularly true of any muni cipality, whose officials strive to leave well enough alone, or to empby the phrase, "stand pat". It is the local activity in a municipality, be it social, industrial, commercial or anything thai s of a good character, which advertises therefore advances a community. ' 'Looking back over the history of New Bern, its annual Fair was an in stitution which advertised this city and section more than anything that has ever been done in this city. Its dia continuauce marked a drop in the "community of interests" feeling and disposition.locally. and there has been no getting together to advance New Bern's interests since, that has amount ed to anything in the way of success. The fact that this Fair was a big ex pense, borne by a few, is simply the history of most progressive cities. That the expense was so unevenly di vided, was the reason for its abandon ment, but if it had not gone down, is there any estimate which might be made of the great good that it would have accomplished in b inging New Bern into prominence? It is this municipal "standing pat" because of expense that is fatal to local development and advancement. When anything is good enough, be it business or politics, it may be certain that the thing is not of consequence, and very little benefit. It is when nothing is good enough, that there will be activity and progress, and the advo cates of "standing pat" will have no hearers or follows. CORRUPTION BEGETS CORRUPTION In the New York Life Insurance Company investigation, President Mc Call of the company in his testimony complained that many bills introduced in the legislatures against or affecting life insurance companies were out and out black-mailing measures, and quite likely this is true. -- But is it to be supposed that black mailing legislative bills are the original idea of the men who are elected to legislatures, and who are elected to such offices in order that they may in stitute nefarious measures, by which they can levy tribute upon corpora tions T . The fact that In reading the history of the proceedings in and about every State or National legislature, what the lobby may be about s a most impor tant feature. Of course lobbyists are organized and kept up to look after legislation which may affect for good or evil corporations whose interests are in the Stpte, and these lobbyists have the business to gain votes by fair or unfair means, , as they most . need vote. y ' . r i If every legislative measure intro duced for corporations was honest, there would be no need for lobbyists or the corrupting of legislators, for the majority of men in all legislative bodies will be found to be honest and fair. and not inimical to honest bills or such measures that are reasonable in their demands, be they private or for cor , porations. . 1 ,, But corruption has begotten corrup tion. The big companies, as best il 1 itrated by the life insurance com. I nics of New York, in their desires t ! pro:; t business, bo that their of -' i i'l enrich themselves, have II !v- i'cn to loMiymt and I ' '.' '.! nipt 1 ; 'i lulur, who seeing these ' f rinjf tirh tl.rmi'.h the com- and legislator, should not also profit through the bills these corporation of ficials seek to have made into laws, or wish defeated. ' ' If there are blackmailers, as Presi dent McCall claims, in the legislatures, could it be expected that they would not be men who, seeing the conditions favorable .for getting something for their influence and votes, would let the opportunity " pass, and "justify their action by the specious plea that others were doing the same thing, and grow ing rich, and why should not the cor poration be made to pay them for their votes, If the corporation had not com menced the corrupt on, and made neces sary the lobbyist, it is very doubtful if the corrupt legislator would prove to day either an able ally of the corpora tion, or a blackmailer" ttf make cor porations buy his vote or silence. CENTENARY METHODISTS NEW CHURCH. In this issue of the Journal is given the picture of the New Centenary Methodist Church, with a short sketch of the events leading up to the erection of this church edifice. This magnificent structure which is to be formally dedicated next Sunday, October 22nd, is a glory to the Metho dist zeal, faith and work, and is an edi fice which is an architectural glory to tl i city. It is a noble monument, struct urally, and greater than a mere monu ment for it will have its temporal uses, which shall prove without doubt unend ing blessings to the glory, and in the service of God. The efforts and work, the thoughts, prayers and even tears, not to forget the sacrifices that have gone along and entered into this new church, would be a glorious inscription if they might le shown upon the interior of the builc ing, but grander and more beneficial will they prove engraved upon the hearts and lives of those who have come up the help of ?od's church. The dedication of this New Centenary, is not the sole property of the Metho dists, for there are thousands of gc.od people, members of other religious de nominations who have contributed to the erection of this church, and who now give thanks that its dedicatory hour is near, and rejoice heartily with the Methodists in their new church home coming, and will assist in the praise that the Methodists have done so well. The dedication of the New Centenary Church is not a matter strictly Metho dist, for it can be truthfully and gener ously said that nearly every person in this city, and many outside, have in a greater or lesser measure contributed in some way to the means which has made possible this grand church edifice? and this being so it can be said that all New Bern glories in the day when the building shall be given to the full, ser vice of those who fear and love God. And even more than this, the dedica tion of this church edifice is a matter of rejoicing throughout all Methodism, and among all people who are interested in the upbuilding of righteousness.

Graham, of Machpelah, Lincoln county, is appointed a member of the State Board of Agriculture,' to succeed the late Mr. Wilfong, who died about ' a fortnight ago. Major Graham hat) had much experience as a member of this board. , At the State Fair Grounds a very great amount of : work is being done now. " Extra precautions are being taken to handle the great crowds and provide for their safety. The railway track is being enclosed by a high and strong wire fence. The street railway people will run 20 cars between the city and the fair grounds. The road' way between the city and the grounds is being put in perfect shape by a course of county convicts.- The camp which will be occupied by the 16 com panies of the National Guard which will be here is being prepared on the golf links between thd city and the grounds The grand-stand is completed and pre sents a very attractive appearance, with its big red roof of metal. All the buildings are being 're-painted and scores of temporary structures are going up, within and without the grounds. Mayor Johnson of Raleigh, has pro vided for extensive police protect! m. Five detectives, in plain cloths, will b here from New York, Washington, Nor folk, Richmond etc., in order to pick ur crooks on sight. There will be 3) spec ial police from the city and 8 will'comt here from other towns for duty during the week. The receipts of cotton here in Raleigh this seasan to date are 3,972 bales, while to the same date last year , thev were 4,286. They have decreased verj greatly during the past week, owing tr the holding by growers, as the week 's receipts were only 264 while three weeki before they were 1119. There was a "heavy frost this morn ing, on highland and lowland alike, but it did no damage except to the tendcr est vegetation. Very hard work is being done to get in the cotton crop, but there ie a very great difference in the appearance o' the fields, since some are really clear picked, while others seem hardly to have been touched. The Secretary of the U. S. Treasury has been requested by Revenue Col lector, Carl Duncan, the custodian of the Postoffice here, to be allowed to decorate that building next week, in compliment to the President. It is against the regulations to decorate it without such permission. Next week there will be a very in terestmg contest at clay pigeons, at the State Fair Grounds in which ama teur shots from this State and Virginia will contest. There will be experts from all over the country. The prizes will amount to $200, a day.
