C, as second-class matter. New Bern, N. C. April, 21, 1911. A PERIOD OE MUNICIPAL TJNEEST. X The reports from those North Carolina cities that have had pri maries thte spring, have shown an unusual spirit of local discontent The papers have merely iudicated this discouteut, probably the full story would uot prove edifying, for there have been bitter amnios Hies engendered, that the decision at the polls has uot settled. Why this unusual rancor among those who have hitherto been po litical frionds, each community must determine for itself. But that the primaries have beeu bitterly contested is no secret in any city, Perhaps Raleigh has shown the most remarkable pTimary exhibit, in the registration of negroes and the taking of the Democratic oath by white Republicans. The fact that Republicans have no voice in way of nominating and voting in municipal elections in this State, because their party attempts no ticket, may be the reason for Re publicans taking part in so many cities this spring, in Democratic : primaries. It is doubtful if a sin jgie city can prove an exception in this, tho few, it might be said only Raleigh has made a full confession of it. That Republicans are thus taking part in municipal prima ries, hitherto exclusively for DeTn ocrats, indicates the gradual elim ination of politics on strict party lines. This is not unhealthy, where good tax paying Republic cans can have a say in their own business, as tax payers of a city. But the fight this spring in Dem ocratic primaries has been person al, and a family fight is always the fiercest. The May election, to car ry out the primary nominations, will settle who is who, as office holders, but it will not settle the bitterness that has been and still exists. POLITICAL EDGED TOOLS. ' Presideat Taft's Canadian re ciprocity bill is likely to prove something of a stumbling block to democrats. As a political meas ure, if passed without amendment, it will hurt the democratic party. It will not carry out democratic promises, and failing in this it will cause dissatisfaction among the people at home, who look for rem J edies not further evasions. The opening fight by Congress man K itch in, is amusing, enter taining, spectacular. It caught the galleries, and republican and democrat, alike, applauded it.

M. Groves, Auditor for Craven county, baa furnished the above figures over bis signature which represent some of the costs of the criminal Superior Court for Craven county during the year 1910. What Craven county would have sav ed last year if there had been in opera tion a Recorder's Court. This U only a part of the saving, for there are oth er items of expense not mentioned. Wherever the Recorder's Court in North Carolina has been es'aMihed, it take less thaa one third of the time to clear up in the Superior C turt than it did before the establishment of these courts, in or other words, tha Superior Court closes on Tuesday night of the court week. It Craven county had a Recorder's Court last year instead of . paying wit nesses for the State 1832.47 it would have paid them 1375.00 and saved the county. $ 457 47 As the magistrates in the Eighth Township could not. try criminal cases the county would have, saved 118 28 The solicitor would have prosecuted one-third as many cases as he did, .hence instead of receiving $183 00, he woo d have received 161.00 and sav ed Craven county 122 00 Instead of paving juries $2, 017 50, it would have paid them a little more than one third of that amount (adding mileage) and saved ' 1 217 50 It cost SI 737 65 to feed the prisoners in jail. In count ira where the Recorders Court is now in operation the jails are practically empty, even when Criminal Superior Court is in session. Thus it is a safe estimate that last year it would ' not have cost over 1400.00 to feed the pri sonars in jail. This would have saved Craven county 1 375 65 If Craven county had had a Recorder's Court last year it would have saved ) $3 290 90 Some of the oponents of the bill have argued that because the Sheriff and the Clerk of the Superior Court are no on a salary the county could not save mon ey. What have the above figures got to do with the Sheriff and the Cleik? Mr. Voter of Craven county, if you are sincere in wanting to save y ur county unnecessary expanse and ih tix payitr his bard earned money you will vote for the Recorder's Court. In every town and county m North Carolina where tyere is a Recorder's Court, the court itself not only pays the salaries of all the officers of the court, but psys annually many thoussnds of dollarsTnto the eounty and town treas uries. The court for Craven county will do the same. Mr. Voter, these facts cannot be honestly denied. What are you going t do about itT The opponent of the establishment of ihe Recorder's Court certainly is con aistent. He says don't rate for the Re corder's Court, because it is framed up simply to "give somebody a j h," and then he says vote for the Farm Life School. I would like to ask him, does he expect that school to run without giving "somebody a job." We hsve read the bill, and our impression is that competent teachers will have to be em ployed. The aliove la like all the argu ments he has put op, and yet he thinks he can fool the people. We are in fa vor of the Farm Life School, and think it will be s great blejsing to Craven eounty. This same opponent some time ago said that Craven county had- done without a Recorder Court two hun dred years. Mis does not mention the fact that Craven county has done with out Farm Life School for over two hundred years. Yon see, Mr. Voter, the language some people use in mak ing sa argument depends whether they re for or "agin" a measure. It is this way. Mr. Voter, the reason that some people are not "agin" the Farm Life School is because that that the estab lishment of the Farm Life School does not take money oat of the pocket of some politician and others, whose names t is needless to mention, si the estab lishment of the Recorder's Court-will do. : v . ... ' Again, let ns say that ws are very much in favor of the, establishment of the Farm Lifs School, and we believe that it will be ratified by the voters for two reasons, the first Is thst it is s mer itorioas measure and the thinkingmen of Craven eounty will vote for It, and in the second place, the fellow who al lows the other man to tell Mm howo vote will not get orders to vote against this money, for as said above, the es tablishment of the Farm Lire School will not take money out of certain mens pockets, benee, there is not the same opposition to It as there is to the es tablishment of the Recordei's Court.
