COTTON WORTHY OF CAREFUL ATTENTION - The American cotton grower is a great believer in his product, and can carry It for yeara, in order to secure the price which he deems it worth, and . yet in the very first instance, no mat ter how good a friend cotton maybe, tjh cotton farmer is neglectful in his attentions tot this mostj valuable staple. Every season can be noted in the to tal cotton market in this city, and this will also be seen elsewhere, cotton bales with poor and insufficient cover ing, and other bales which have had to ' be torn to pieces to get out the stained cotton, to make the cotton mar ketable. . All this is the result of poor .handling by the farmer in the first place, and then an indifference in the protection of the cotton after it was baled. Too many southern farmers forget ., -. that today cotton is eleven cenU and is worthy of double the care it received a few years ago, when it was selling at . five cents, although the price should , not be an excuse for negligent farming and preparing for market, of any crop. If the cotton farmer, will take note of his fellows, the grain farmer, the truck farmer and the fruit farmer, he will observe that these agriculturists give most careful heed to the manner : ' of the handling of their products, and these fellow farmers are richly reward ed for this attention by the better .. prices they recieve for their farm products. More care in packing, more attention in housing, are demanded of the south ern cottton grower, in order to se cure better results for his time and la bor. The cotton growers in other coun- tries, with fields far less abundant, give care to every handful of cotton picked, and wraps it with care, and pro tects it from the weather until it ia pre- . pared and ready for market . The southern cotton farmer may show wisdom in waiting for a market price, to make his labors remunera tive, but a more thorough and careful preparation to begin with, well packed " bales and well protected from the' ele ments, will yield returns that will handsomely reward this extra attention and trouble for so doing. LOCAL LIGHT AND LOCOMOTION. Several local incidents in the way of possible changes in the supply and character of lights for private consump tion in this city, also possibilities in the way of rapid transit, in'"eiectric car line system to suburban properties, have appeared in the local columns of the Journal during the past few weeks. To recount these incidents and forcast possible future changes, is of interest at this time. ",' ' A possible purchase of the gasworks of this city, the putting in of new ilium mating power in several of the business houses, in some ways can lead, if car ried out, to a considerable decrease in the consumption of the electric light as now sold to consumers by the city. The looking over this city and vicinity WiZlTl parties, who intimate an electric car Duffy. , . i line system a possibility, if arrange ments can be made, is another import- 1 ant nutter, not only to those interest- 1 in the development and growth of ' icity, anJ adjacent property, but u- ... i m i u, ic ciiy ui iw ownersnip oi an j :crt,ht plant, for if these changes r i 'o, it means a steadily decreaa- - 'me for the city, for such in- i consummated would r ; 'i afU-r hu:iineRS from mean every . 1 ui.!-..- the citv can fur. : i c -.1 s..rvic, every con- t: Ti 1 cf r U going to the partyjffho will give the best and cheapest. Is the city able, or going to, try to meet any possible competition In better light service? It is an important ques tion to every taxpayer, for unless it can, it means a costly and useless prop erty to be maintained at the taxpayers expense. So far as transportation, in the way of an electric car system, the city will never be jh such competition, for it would not be able to enter the contest. KEEP OFF THE GRASS! In years past, visitors in the parks of the large northern cities, were greeted on every side by signs bearing the warning, "Keep off the grass," so that the real enjoyment of the tired and dusty visitor, seeking a haven of quiet ness and coolness on a hot summer's day, found instead of the soft green sward to lie upon, only the hard and dusty paths. But today this has largely changed, and the masses of the people are .permitted to enjoy the grass and the shade of the trees in the parks, with no disturbing signs of "don't," Every community, every municipal-; ity, can if it so orders, make baniers in the way of ordinances and Uwal laws, which like the "keen, off $e. grass" signs.operate against local com fort in the way of hindrances to mate rial and industrial development and growth. Ijt is loca restriction which causes friction, prlucea Brrtatjon and checks all lpcad progress, by keeping outsiders from coming in, There is too much of this "Keep off the grass" sentiment in New Bern, a spirit which views progress and build ing up, only as it may personally bene fit the individual, not the community. It is this sentiment which makes it matter of force, if any industry seek ing iutrance, shall succeed in locating here, instead of a liberal spirit, with liberal offers to secure such industries. It is this very sentiment and spirit demanding that all who come must con form exactly to certain prescribed rules, which for an outsider just coming in are sure to be harsh, if not prescrip tive, and which has kept towns only towns, instead of attaining their nat ural growth as cities. New Bern is naturally splendidly lo cated. It should be a large city, instead of a small one. It should have many man ufactures, instead of a few. It should have twice the population, as compared to the colored, rather than less whites than colored. It should prove liberal. instead of narrow. It should gain by hundreds in population, and hundreds of thousands in industries and capital. rather than slowly creep along. - There should be the taking away of all the signs "Keep off the grass" of this city "unless you want to get in trouble, " and instead the glad welcome be extended to all who come with the disposition to be of us, and for us, and all be together for each other, with no restrictive measures of "please don't crowd, because we have lived here be fore you came," No true and permanent or . prosper ous municipal development and growth is to be expected without a liberal and patriotic local spirit, and outsiders will not come, will not invest a dollar where Keep off the grass" is the prevailing local sentiment .

Instead of -the vote being 75 against the tax proposition it was 40 in favor of it; the vote being 159 for and 119 against. Developments show, however, that the election was fraudulent as there vers more votes cast than there are legal voters in Beaufort This beiiur the.case the winners not wishing to ac cept the victory on which the stigma of fraud rested instructed the Boani of Registrars and judges to adjourn until Monday to declare the election null and void and to make arrangements for another election. The election was one cf the most ex citing times ever seen in Beaufort in an occasion of this kind and the excite ment still continues. : A CiiartMcetf Cars For PUm " Itching, Blind, Bsedin& Protruding Piles. .Druffgwt, are aqthorized to re- fund money if PA OINTMENT fails to cure, ia ft to, 14 days. 60c.
