New Cerp, K. C September 28, 1906. . SPONTANEOUS LOCAL GIVING. , Like the payment of taxes, there are certain other municipal financial obli gations which the people of a comma nitv are in duty bound to meet But while taxes are compulsory, these others cannot be so classed, ' yet they have been assumed, therefore the greater honor attached to their being met, and promptly met. One of these purely local institutions, which call for local help through private contributions, is the Circulating Library. To call special attention to this insti tution, it may be said that the work of keeping it going, which means rooms, lights, ",; librarian, new books, etc, whose time is given voluntarily, whose public spirit is aroused to the necessity that such a library is demanded for the good of this city. This library is a circulating one, which is the nearest approach to a public library, that the committee in charge can make it Only a nominal charge per year is made for those wishing books, and the' receipts from this source are net enough to maintain and equip the library. To make up the cost of maintainance, the committee who have the library in charge, must go out and ask contri butions. The personal sacrifice in doing such work is easy to be seen Anyone who has ever done voluntarily work, knows how it is. How truly should the needed contri butions be those of spontaneous giving, instead of as it were, demand giving in order to support an institution whose benefits will reach citizens needing a library. It is a personal sacrifice, even if there be the public spirit to prompt it, for the committee to conduct this library, if there were revenues to carry it on. How much greater the sacrifice to have to solicit it might be called begging in some cases, in order that the library shall be maintained, year after year. Why cannot every citizen interested in education, and a library is an educational institution, give volun tarily to the committee, instead of com pelling the committee to be mendi cants? There is no good reason why there should not be liberal and spontan eous contributions given to the circu lating library, and the hands of the committing be suDnorted who havaao generously given their home, energy and efforts to preserve this institution, that the people might be the gainers through its resources of books and periodicals. Let next year mark the beginning of spontaneous giving to pro mote the good work of the local circu lating library I THE PLEA FOR CONTINUED DEMOCRATIC STATE CONTROL Conservatism may sometimes be classed, as dullness to act fear to change. The conservatism of North Carolinians is proverbial yet it is a conservatism which has reason, calmness and judg ment, rather than any hesitation to branch out into new lines of action. : The plea for changes in the present State administration, in the political campaign now taking place, seeks to shake the confidence of the people. It is not a mere plea or a mere political method. It is always a way for the 'outs" to discredit the "ins." It is legitimate, for it may be held that ev erything is fair in politics. But the people in this State must have the act ual demonstration, before they will -' ' or give control to men or a on mere assumption that the i" are telling the truth. ". t ' " for continued Democratic ' .1 iu North Carolina has th ' " ' Buiiii J local conditions i ' nient In public i 4 ( ' a, who have i Vu ic speeches, -en evidence which is be yond argument'' The sincerity of approval of Demo cratic control in North Carolina has never been more apparent than in this campaign of 1906. North Carolina con servatism has weighed and found the full measurement as promised by the Democracy. The prosperity of ex isting institutions continue. The confidence ' in 'the State's fu ture, under the assured Democratic control, has brought into life numerous industries and companies to do local business in North Carolina. : There is no hesitation, no stop in the onward move of industry, of the social, edu cational and moral uplift of the people. Stability and safety, are Democratic guarantees. , The people believe those who guarantee the continuation of such stability and safety, if Democracy con tinues in power. r-- ' b. It is the every day in the year evi dence of good and safe government in North Carolina, that is the plea for continued Democ ratio control. . North Carolina under Democratic manage ment has long passed the experimental period. The people tried a change in 1896, and paid the penalty in disaster, disorder, discomfort and loss in State reputation. That the full penalty has yet been paid, ja. a question. That there is any sign of a desire to repeat the experiment, cannot be seen any where The lesson was a costly one, but it served to prove that it was only Democratic management which could conduct this State's affairs, so as to meet the full approval of its people. KEEP CLEAR AS TO THE : REAL POLITICAL ISSUES. No voter in North Carolina should get confused in the political campaign this Fall The speakings of William J. Bryan has led, perhaps, to some con fusion. ' The advancement of Mr. Bry an's .personal view on government ownership of railroads, has provoked discussion. It has aroused some acri monious feelings. But Mr. Bryan is not a political issue this year in North Carolina. The expression of anyone as to railroad ownership, is purely a per sonal matter. It is not an issue. It is not a subject for political argument, therefore why should any voter seek an argument on the matter, when there are issues demanding argument The North Carolina political argu ment is for the continuation of good government The local argument in each county and district is who are the candidates, who are to be voted for,, whose party represents this good gov ernment? The kind which has brought stability and development snd pros perity in this State has come through Democratic administrtaion of its affairs. The candidates in each county and dis trict who seek election, are represen tatives of the Democratic party. They are to be elected because the people have confidence in them, that their election means the assurance of a per petuation of good government in North Carolina. ' - In addition to this State good govern ment, there is the election of United States Congressmen in the several dis tricts, a matter calling for! the atten tion of Democratic voters, but one which goes hand in hand with the coun ty and State voting, and it is important that every voter appreciate the neces sity of casting his vote for the Demo cratic candidates for the county, State and Congress, to include also the mem bers for the next State Legislature. There is enough for consideration in (he present campaign. The issues be tween the Democratic, and Republican or other political parties are as wide and important in their bearings as they were ten years ago. . It is' the same question of good government and the absence of local disorders, or such a State administration of affairs as was endured in 1896 and 1898. - The people want no mors such conditions to exist To give the best assurance of this de sire for good government in the State, is to continue in control the party which gives this kind of secure adminis tration. Let every voter keep clear that stability in local matters is the is sue this year. When the national elec tion comes in two years, it will be time enough to discuss the issues for that occasion.

Snyder.) : Norfolk, Sept 25. Lovers of the fine arts, connoisseurs, and artists will read with interest that at least an exclusive ly. American exhibit of fine arts is to be made that will be not only representa tive but sufficiently extensive to cover the entire development of art in the United States from the earliest works to the present timet. - Governor J. Taylor Ellysonr of the Department of History, Education and Social Economy, of the Jamestown Ex position announces definitely his decis sion that this will be done and his plans are already working out in a manner that promises the greatest success. Art lovers have long desired just such an exhibition as Governor Ellyson has made possible for there Is an abounding ignorance of this great subject among the people and the exhibit will b not only a joy to those who know art, but its influences as an educational factor will be far reaching and potent for good in creating new and higher ideals. The idea for an international art ex hibit at the exposition was abandoned because of lack of time and also be cause these exhibitions cannot of ne cessity be entirely satisfactory. The really great art works of Europe can not be moved from the p'aces of which their presence has made shrines and to see them one must go to them. . There fore, the idea of distinctively American exhibit was adopted as a part of the historical and educational scheme of the great Ter-Centennial. ,In order to make this exhibit as com prehensive as the. scope of the James town Exposition demands all American artists and owners of American mas terpieces of ait, whether of painting or sculpture, should co-operate with en thusiasm in aid of Governor Ellyson's plans. ; An invitation to all artists to anticipate and to owners of art works to lend their treasures for exhibition be issued at once and the result need not be doubted. The Library Board of the State of Virginia, which is custodian of the his torical relics and art works of the state, has notified the Exposition that all its treasures are at the disposal of the management and this collection will form the nucleus of the fine art exhibit for among these art works are many masterpieces, especially by the earlier artists of note. There are in this State collection portraits of all the governors of Virginia and of her distinguished soldiers and statesmen from the earliest times down to the present in addition to many historical paintings and some works of the mallet and chisel that are notable.'- ',";7' Relics, such as the swords of. Wash ington and Lee, the saddle, pistols and bolsters of Jackson, and other objects valuable and interesting because of their associations with great men and events, will be placed in tie historical exhibit and will of course, be no part of the exhibit of the fine arts. , ' The Colonial dames and daughters of the American revolution, who own and control most of the historical relics, will make a most marvelous display of these interesting objects which include plaies, ceramics, bric-a-brac, jewelry, furniture, clothing, manuscripts, books and a thousand other things. This ex hibit which will be placed in the Histor ical Art Palace will be a liberal educa tion in itself and it will be undoubtedly one of the greatest attractions of this greatest of historical expositions. Council for Harry K Thaw in the New York Supreme Court urged removal of the ease in order that the accused may have a speedy trial. . Ha Tsttsr tor Thirty Tsars.

Raleigh Sept 25 Frank Thompson Eaq. of Onslow was before the State Board of Education and made a report to it upon the surrey of what are known as state swamp lands in the four coun ties of Craven Jones, Onslow and Cart eret He says he finds that there, are 220,000 acres of these lands. Some have very fine timbers on them, while others are open and have always been bo. He especially recommends that no sales be made until the amount of timber on the land is carefully ascertained. , A great deal of such land has been sold for a trifle and the lumbermen have made fortunes from these lands and from those bought from private owners at very low figures.
