C.; June 19, 1906. STILL NEEO OF BETTER FIRE PRO TECTION. The fact that New Bern has been free from large and eo3tly tires during the pa9t few months, should not be ac cepted as a sign ot immunity from fu ture tires. Two things look imperatively neces sary, if property ' holders and those whose property can be destroyed by fire, are to feel fairly safe and these we first, the re-arrangement of the local fire department, that is a paid fire department, and second, a water sup ply which at any hour, day or night, can be drawn upon and never found lacking In the doing away with the volunteer system. Now iiein would b but taking the advanced position, which every city takes, when its boundaries enlarge, and the service demands upon volun teers has passed the legitimate peint of taxing men to freely give their time and risk their persons, with no com pensation for risk taken. That the volunteer fire service in this city has kept up so long speaks highly for local patriotism, but the time has passed for this Borviee, and th sooner New Bern adopts the paid system, the better it will be for every commercial interest of this city, and that includes greater safety for life and property, a fire sys tem with a force to woric which can be dealt with on a business basis. In the matter of an increased water supply, the Journal ha9 already sug gested the establishment of supple mentary water stations, one on each rives; where a force pump and engine would be found of immense relief to the present water works system in case of fire, and also as supply stations from which the city could draw water for street sprinkling purposes, instead of drawing from the. street hydrants, as at present which, in dry weather means practically destroying all water pressure of the water works, by the immense drain from the city's mains. It is time now for such measures to be considered, not after some destructive fire, which would be more than all the cost involved in improvements, and be sides a paid fire department is certain to come. LEOPOLD ON THE KONGO Chicago Post. The extraordinary tone of K'ng Leo pold's letter, attached to the incrimi nating report of the Kongo commission, shows that there is no .hope that the inhumanity and brutality' which is ad mitted to have been practiced in the Kongo Free State will be stopped as long as Leopold is chief stockholder in the rubber company that .operates in the Kongo. Leopold declares that there is no special international law concerning . the State, that his rights in Kongo are the result ef his toil and financiering and are indivisible. If what, Leopold boldly asserts is true, the powers that delegated the ad miniwtration of the Kongo in such a large degree to Leopold should, for the sake of common humanity, intervene. - He manifests no intention of correct . ing the radical defects of Belgium's rule. Whtm pursued as the responsible monarch, he declares himself a shame less and irresponsible commercial ex . ploiter. INTELLIGENT AND CARE ' FUL PETITION SIGNING. To the average citizen it can be asked, do you carefully, read and examine in to the merits of ever petition that is handed to you for your signature, which means yeur endorsement? ' If you do Hot, why not? For very often a petition contains matter which is decidedly against the signer, and his signature will place him in a position which calls for explanation, , , , v , - , An instance of the local thoughtless petition signing calls far consideration, for the Journal cannot think that those to whom attention is called, either read or gave thought to what was above their names, and yet to which as signers, un less they should retract, they stand pledged as endorsers. 1 In the petitions handed about recent ly for signatures, . aaV ing that the city authorities held an election for the pur pose of voting upon the establishment of a dispensary in this city, j 'voting for saloons, these words scour, wretch ed and deplorable conditions which pictures the present conditions ak exist ing in New Bern under- a prohibition law, and from which the petitioners wish lo escape, by securing a 'dispen sary, or having saloons5 -i Now, among the signers "whl dec are local conditions to be "wretched and deplorable, " are several aldermen and policemen. No one knows as wall as these signers what oath they took when they took their respective offices, which prescribed certain duties upon them. Can each one of these aldermen and po licemen take oath that they each and it. v every one have done everything' in their power as city officials, to prevent the alleged "wretched and deplorable con ditions," which exist in this city under a prohibition law, therefore demanding as a charge to relieve these "wretch ed and deplorable conditions," a dispen sary or a saloon 1 To the Journal these signers itand in a position calling for explanation. If they signed because some "good fel low" asked them, would it not be just to their offiaial standing to confess their failure and ask to be relieved, as signers? Or if the battle has been such a hard one, why Lot let some else take up the fight; until the alleged "wretch ed and deplorable conditions" are done away with, or at such a time, if it should come, when the people, not by one-third, but by a majority petition, ask that the prohibition law be annulled and some other measure be adopted for the control of liquor in New Bern ?

Planning a SecondTour "The Clansman" will start its sec ond Southern tour early in September and will again be seen m all of the principal cities of the South. Its won derful success through the South last season demonstrated beyond cavil ques tion. It was played before audiences the size of which was never equalled in any record of histrionic affairs. . Seats we.-e frequently sold at a premium and patrons paid as high as five dollars a seat to witness the stirring play. Since this remarkable succesd in the South, "The Clansman" has been presented in nearly all of the principal cities in the North to record breaking business Contrary to the prediction of many Southerners, the North received the play with wild enthusiasm. They re gard it as a herald which brings a bet ter understanding of conditions that really existed. The tour both North and South was an event in national history. The company presenting the play this coming season will be, with one or two exceptions, the same as last year, including all of the old fa vorites. One of the first 9teps taken by (ieorge H. Brennen in preparing for the tour of "The Clansman" this season, was to arrange for a new scenic setting of the play that will be notable for accuracy, beauty and il lusion.

We are not satisfied with the situa tion as it stands, and our object Incom ing before this honorable board today, is to ask that you will give us a bridge at, or near Maple Cypress. By grant ing us this favor, the distance-between Maple Cypress and Newborn will be greatly shortened and two of the best sections in the sounty so connected that in the future they may enjoy that so cial and business intercourse that is due each from the other and of which they have been deprived in the past. Further-more wo expect to Tiave a direct route from the river to the A. & N. C. R.

A juror at Mip!e Cypress will be able to leave his home at seven o'clock in the morning, and reach the court house by ten. - The farmer living on the north side of the river can get his breakfast at home, catch the morn ing train, reach New Bern at 10 o 'cluck spend seven and a half hours in the city and return to his home for supper This will bring ' a volume of business into New Bern that belongs to her, but which Bhe has never had, nor ever will have until we have an easy access across ths river to reach New Bern ss mentioned herein: : ! ' -Now, gentlemen, we know that out request is not an unreasonable one, e realize that It is within your -powor to grant this request, and - that you can give us this bridge without inflicting hardship upon any - one, or upon any section and we consider it obligatory upon you to thus recognise us. - We, the young generation, do not object to she taxes we are paying; w are in favor of helping people to help them selves by giving them conveniences and letting them pay for them. , You gave the people of Now Herri bridges, and they are indispensable necessities.

Ja - OF Mr. Graham Richardson Withdraws. To the Democratic voters of Craven county: On the 19th of August, 1905, I band ed Mr. B. G. Credle, deputy sheriff, my check for my taxes then duennl Mr. Credle, through a mistake, wrote en the check "taxes 1905" when it should have been "taxes 1904." When I looked at my check to see whether my taxes for 1905 were paid I was misled by this check and for that reason failed to pay my poll tax in time to make me a voter for the present year. This is a matter of deep regret to me and was entirelv due to the error in marking the check "1905" instead of "1901." I desired to be a candidate for Hie of rice of register of deeds and have made a canvass of the county and now find mvself greatly embarrassed becau e of this mistake fpr which lam not in any way responsible.
