New Bern, N. C, May 3, 1907. IS SEW BEBJf A GIEAJf CITIJ The above auery may provoke a smile, but it is no smiling matter, this question of a cleanly city, unless - it can be answered in the affirmative.. . But while householders aud reel dents may abuse the city authorities for bad streets, bad walks and the trash which every wind sends whirling from side to side, and the dust that 1 fills the face, blown from the dried up earth walks, the city authorities are not to be held liable, or to be cen sured for' all the uncleanlinesa. Like many other bad conditions an un clean or untidy city is due, primarily, ; to the individual, to the private house holder. Trash first comes from some one's premises. Too many house holders go upon the principle, that all that is called for, in cleaning up their own premises, is to throw into the al ley, street or next lot, scraps of food, old papers, tin cans, ashes and other . accumulations that may be gathered up. The result is seen in rubbish strewn streets, foul and unhealthy al leys, and generally, a disgraceful looking city. .; ' The first step towards, municipal " cleanliness, is to be done by the householder, who must gather up the . scraps and rubbish on his or her own premises, and have these taken away to some place, where they cannot eontribute to any local nuisance. , If this is done, the city authorities have a great burden taken from them, and can the more easily keep streets, al leys and walks in a clean condition, so far as rubbish is concerned. With this rubbish carefully kept from scat tering, the matter of public health Is more easily handled, for there will be no decaying matter left baout to breed disease and pestilence. If ' the in dividual will not throw paper in the streets to be blown about If the householder will gather np and care fully carry away all rubbish from the premises, the question of a clean city and a healthy , community, can be readily answered, and satisfactorily. THE GROWTH OF THE BUBAL JlAIL 8EBTICE. The value of the rural mall service In the United States, can hardly ' be fully estimated. From its first estab lishmentits growth has been continu ous and rapid. Every section of the country that secured its first route of rural mail delivery, felt its help, and wanted more. Its importance to the farmer has been Immense, in keeping him jla deee teach with the markets, and what .was doing , in those markets, where his products were sold.' An active factor, also, has been the tele phone, which as developed into a service of necessity, more than one of Luxury, to the farmer, as well as to those living in citles, -. A statement recently issued by the assistant postmaster general gives 37, 060, as the" number of rural delivery routes in this country. The central western states lead in the number of these rural routes, Illinois havlng2, 7;3, Olio 2,492, Iowa 2,303, Indiana 2,133. Pennsylvania Is the only other s a t8 with more than 2,000. These c ,trnl westorn states, with tholr level .':;,- ,"r extra facilities, in-way t f t r the route carriers. Tliey ' ' ' e t! .! mill urogresMivo : ; i MMii,t i.f in. m! ban, 11,.

The gain is not for the few, but nearly every.rbute shows a gain.. Added to the rural mail deliv ery service, is that of money orders, which the carriers now handle. In this there has been a gain of nearly 25 per cent. This givep the farmer the chance to do business at his own door, receiving his mail, having it taken away, and sending .money or ders with greater ease than the city resident, who must go to the . post-office. THE SELMA CONNECTION CASE. - It took the Federal supreme court a long time to decide that Selma "con nection case brought by the Corpora tion Commission against the. Atlantic Coast Line. The railroad put the train on bo long ago that nearly everybody had forgotten that there was a suit pending which Involved the right of the Corporation Commis sion to make the order. Had the de cision been in favor of the railroad we doubt if It would have discon tinued the train.1 The company was fighting more for a principle, claim ing that such order was not within the power of the state . commission. The question Is now finally settled favor of the commission, and we sup pose that in future it will pay more attention to compelling railroads to give the public convenient schedules for making connections over different lines. f; , , '- 'V;' , '. The next big railroad case in thl3 state will, most probably, be a con test over the validity of the freight and passenger rates bills passed by the last legislature. ' The railroads will be pretty apt to test these two statutes when the time comes for them to go into effect We do not be lieve the people would be .the least concerned in the passenger rate case. There was no public demand for the reduction of tares. What the people want is better facilities for trans portation and quick delivery of freight together with prevention of discrimi nation in favor of some poiuts against others. There is difference of opinion as to whether the freight rate bill will accomplish anything as to the latter. Many persons competent to judge say that it will not do so; in act, that if strictly enforced it will make conditions at some points worse than they are now. The Wilmington Messenger. $100 REWARD, $100. The readers of this paper will be pleased to' learn that there is at least one dreaded 'disease that science has been able to cure in all its stages, and that is Catarrh. Hall's Catarrh Cure Is the only positive cure now known to the medical fraternity. Qatarrh be ing a constitutional disease, requires a constitutional treatment. Hall's Ca tarrh Cure is taken Internally, acting directly upon the blood and mucous surfaces of the system, thereby de stroying the foundation of the disease and giving the patient strength :- by building up the constitution and as sisting nature in doing its work. The proprietors have so much faith in its curative powers that they offer One Hundred Dollars for any case that it falls to cure. Bend for list of testi monials. Address: F. J. .

Wages y are" higher now than ever before. An ordinary, slov enly laborer with no skill whatever, one who needs to be overlooked and coached In the slightest details, de mand $1.25 to $1.50 a day, and that day must include late arrival in the morning and certain tardiness about dinner time, per haps a hand out din ner. All this expense and trouble for a laborer to dig a little in a garden, clean up a yard or patch, a . fence. Farm laborers are nearly as expen sive and equally unsatisfactory. The average common laborer, here, has no ambition, is utterly . Improvident and receiving such large compensa tion for a day's work is only compell ed to work one or two days In the ewek to live. In the past their food consisted of the cheapest and coarsest kinds, the allowance was meager be cause the small wages received would not purchase more or better and now With greater prosperity less effort Is required to obtain a like substance.
