At first thought, the efforts of the citizens committee of 25 members, of New Orleans, taking preliminary steps towards plans for a bl-oceanlc, or Panama Canal Exposition, looks like a very forward movement, out long in advance as the exposition proposes to gelebrate the completion of the great 801 pf Panama. But there is great work ahead, If the exposition is to be come a reality, even if it is to be held as proposed In 1915 or 1916. Together with the citizens committee, the other local associations of New Orleans, the Progressive Union and the Merchants and Manufacturers' are giving them support, and 8 call has been issued to the people o fthe Southern Valley and western states, whose interests "will all be materially affected by the Pan ama canal completion to meet in con ference in New Orleans on June 27th. The object of the conference will be to get the personal views o fthe sev eral delegations attending, see if the several states will act together to make the proposed exposition a buc Cess, and if agreed, then to formulate definite plans towards the creation of : the exposition.. The city of New Orleans proposes to raise $5,000,000, and 'the state of Louisiana, probably 92,000,000 additional. It is thought these amounts can be Increased to $15,000,000 from other states, If the sentiment favors in the conference, -that the exposition be held. This exposition would celebrate a tremendous industrial and commer cial achievement while other exposi tions held in this country have, had for a basis, the commemoration of some local historical event The difference is noteworthy. New Orleans with Us site at Lake Ponchartraln, would be the ideal national place for sueh an exposition. - WILL SEW BEKJf CEASE TO BE A SEA POET? Naturally, the question above will be held as a joke, or if seriously con sidered, will be answered, "of course not!" If left to New Bernlans, to de termine, could It be answered so posit tlvely? The Journal asks, will New .Bern, cease to be a seaport, anticipat ing the action of the Norfolk and Southern Railroad Company, which: makes no secret, that when its rail road line between this city and Waehf ington, can carry the passenger traf tie, it now handles part of the freight, the steamers,- Neus and 'Albemarle, now running -between this city and .Belhaven, will be taken off. A few years ago, the Journal gl ted the question, of a steamboat be tween New Bern and Baltimore. chamber of commerce stirred In the matter. But there was no result, ami the merchants Who said they would take stock, are as formerly, paying for goods by the old lines of trans portation, and probably complaining ot high freight rates. At present, the chamber ot commerce, to dignify ls existence by mention, Is In a coma tose state. By name it V at tims mentioned, and perhaps if needed, like the - scare to alarm children, might be used aa a "bogle man" Sto represent something . not here, bjut villi h can be appealed to. " ' . Lat beyond this, the question is.jls t mercantile trade of New Bern I-1 to sit pHsively . down, and ijot i ' e aa effort, once the prer nt !p p'rvlce is dropped, to hive r t lea i's i liice, a ei'rvire t'':at ! i : ' rs to I . ,ie or every trade Interest here? It may be beyond local ability to establish a transportation service by water to some northern port It it la, there Is money and business talent elsewhere that can be secured, by proper effort The move can be made by the mer chants, and their efforts' could be backed up by every eitizen. To have a water way, and not make it a means to benefit local trade, when the op portunity . Is open, would prove de plorable from very point of view. The time for action is now. the stimulant of health! -., example! The force ot example being so tar ahead of Just "precept, is illustrated ' every day. The telling how things should he done, without the knowl-: edge and capacity to perform, or know j that the work undertaken, is correct, 1 amounts to nothing. And yet to the ignorant or lazy, the example ot good work, provokes enmity and hatred, j Even to persons who hold themselves as intelligent and industrious, the ex ample of others who gain great suc cess, excites jealousy and envy. t . But there is the broad view to be taken of both example and precept. Example is the healthy, active force, present, visible, exhilarating. To the strong and ambitious, it is a most healthy force. It provokes to greater effort, and excites to greatest endeav or . To the individual, the example of an honorable and upright life, cannot but prove helpful. It is something that nearly every man and woman overlooks, the thought Pf their force upon others, in the way they live their daily lives. Every day offers the op portunity of proving oneself an ex ample, that may be of help to some one else. And very little things go to make up a force, a character, to have its weight and influence on others. The unselfishness and courtesy, easy to learn and acquire, have wrought won ders in the advancement of society progress and Christianity. , And in municipal development and growth, it is the individual force of the citizenship which Is behind, to create the strong municipality. As in the person, so in the municipality, character and force must predominate to win. The stimulant of some ex ample, has often developed and brought out the greateet 'individuals, cities and nations. Those who looked at the example, saw its character, the results that developed, and taking up the same line, secured greater results than those whose example prompted the first line of action. The good that is in any individual may be developed into a. force that will become an ex ample for others, and through them perpetrate an -ever Increasing force for right, that will lead to and bring sooner the millennium. $100 REWARD, $100.
