Mm mxftml NEW BERN, N. C. FRIDAY, OCTOBER 3 1913- SEGOND SECTION 35th YEAR 1 TIC MIS KNOWN THE CARRIERS' REPLY The Railroads Claim There Are No Strings Tied To Their Propasal v COMMERCE COMMISSION WILL PISS N RITES TO GIVE DEMONSTRATIONS. Colored Farmers To Expert. Hear Sot! New Schedules Will Be Applied Just As Speed ily As Possible Raleigh, Sept. 29. The officers of three railroad companies, replying to the resolution introduced in the House, handed their anwer to Representative Justice today for transmission to that body. In the answer the carriers assured Mr. Justice that the offer was made in good faith, that it meant what the Governor and the Corporation Commission thought it meant, and that the carriers were relying on the fairness of the people of North Caro lina to give the railroads square treat ment. The officers say they will put the rates into effect as quickly as it is physically possible after the Inter state Commerce Commission has in spected them, this being absolutely necessary because the lower rates in question violate the principle of the long and short haul clause. The carriers, it is said, could not apply the rates until permission is given but since Hon. Edgar E. Clark, chairman of, the Interstate Com merce Commission, has been in the confidence of the Nofth Carolina Commission and has advised Chair man Travis to accept them, the Gov ernor and the Commission have not anticipated any trouble on that score. When the House convened at noon, E. J. Justice made a lengthy statement, in which he presented the interstate car riers' repay to the inquiries propounded . Saturday, through Mr. Justice, as to phases of the proposal for rate re duction and probable time for its ap plication, if accepted by the legisla ture. The reply states that the pro posal means as to rites fromtfce West, that proportional rates proposed to be established South of Virginia cities will apply from points west of Buffalo Pittsburgh Zone, whether based on the Ohio river crossings, or on Virginia cities; that after acceptance of the proposal by legislature it will have to be submitted to the Interstate Com merce Cqmmission, after rates in de tails have' been worked out and then the?e printed schedules distributed to agents, but that certainly the new rate will be applied just as speedily :n i - !:: .. u I as possime, anu apiuiiaiiim win in lYVanade in the utmost good faith, possi within sixty days after the Inter I' Ve Commerce commission makes its ( Jfrrs" the principle that reductions must not extend beyond the borders of the State, though special order by the Interstate Commerce Commission, has been eliminated and that there is no restriction contemplated in the pro posal to bar the State from retaliatory legislation, the railroad companies have entered negotiations in spite of the compromise to meet the wishes of the people, relying for their pro tection, upon the sense of fairness and juuice of the representatives of the people and upon the faith that if the Ftate should accept the proposal, such course will there after be pursued by the State as would be in keeping with the spirit of the settlement. J. R. Gillespie, secretary of the East ern North Carolina Colored Fair' As sociation Company, has received a letter from the Secretary of Agricul ture at Washington, D. C, stating that this department would furnish a dem onstrator to come to New Bern on Thursday, November 6, to give dem onstrations and to make an address to the farmers. Thursday has been set aside as "Farmers' Day" and tillers of the soil from this and adjoining counties are expected to be present. Secretary Gillesp ie had an interview with H. S. Leard, general passenger agent of the Norfolk Southern Railway Company, while he was in .the city Tuesday night and Mr. Leard informed him that the comany was intending to give reduced rates from all points along its line to New Bern the week of the fair and would operate special trains on two days.

NEW BERN'S NEW BAND NEEDS FINANCIAL AID Several Hundred Dollars Contributed By Public Spirit ed Citizens cut Not Enough Money Has Been Secured When the members of the Peoples Concert Band announced a few days ago that their instruments had arrived and that they needed several hundred dollars to get them out of the express office, they did not think that the citi zens of New Bern would be so liberal in assisting them to pay for these instruments. Monday the band boys started out soliciting subscriptions and donations and they have met with much success. However, there is still a deficit and they are asking the business men to help them cover this. Any amount, no mat ter how small, will be appreciated and the boys promise to give New Bern the best band withia, the history of the historic old town on the Neuse.

Bradley Hanff, a former New Bern ian, but who for several years past has resided at Panama is spending a few days in the city with relatives. Having been closely connected with the work on the big canal Mr. Hanff is thoroughly familiar with it and talks very interestingly of the remarkable progress which has been made in the work. Mr. Hanff has written the fol lowing article for the. Journal, explain ing in full manner important details of the work on the canal. "TheCaaal Zone, or the strip of land owned by the United States for the canal is 5 miles on each side of the center of canal, or 10 miles wide, and is governed by the United States. The Panama Canal does not, as it is generally thought, run from east to west across the isthmus. Its general direction is Northwest to Southeast, the Pacific entrance (near Panama City) being about 22 1-2 miles east of Atlantic entrance, near City of Colon. It is a lake canal as well as a lock canal, its dominaating feature being the Gatun Lake, a great artificial body of water, covering about 164 square miles. The Gatun Lake is an elevated body of water with a surface level of 85 to 87 feet "above sea level, maintained by the Gatun Dam and Gatun Locks on the Atlantic side of the Pedro Miguel Locks and Dam on the .Pacific side.

No Official Announcement Has Been Made By Clerk Of Eastern District. Officers Of This Section Are Search ing For Lenoir County Convict. SIX ARE STILL AT LARGE Negroes Apprehended At Maya- vllle Were Not The One Wanted. When five unknown negroes walked into Maysville yesterday morning and began to inquire if they could secure work in that town, the citisens felt sure that they were five of the ten men who early last Sunday morning overpowered the guards and escaped from the Lenoir county chain gang. This suspicion grew stronger when the men said that they had walked through the country from this city and were enroute to Wilmington. Deputy Sheriff L. T. Gillette caljed up the Lehofr county Sheriff, who -was in New Bern, aftd asked him iF he wanted the men arrested and brought here for identification. The Sheriff felt sure the men were the ones-he was in search of and asked that they be placed under arrest and this was done. Yesterday afternoon the five negroes were brought to New Bern, but they proved not to be the ones wanted and were released from custody. The five negroes have been working down in Pamlico county and were enroute to their homes at Wilmington. That one or more of the fugitives are now in New Bern is almost a cer tainty. Monday night a shotgun and shells were stolen from O. H. Wether ington's store, at Tuscarora, by the escaped convicts, and yesterday morn ing Policeman A. L.

M. Pcarsall. The new clerk of the Eastern Dis trict, Alec L. Blow, was in New Bern last week and while here it is under stood informed Mr. Green of his inten tion to put a new man in the office. Mr. Green's books have been checked up and were found to be in excellent condition and it will be possible now for Colonel Pcarsall to assume charge of the office at any time. Just when the change will be made is not known. Probably not until after the next term of Federal Court. Colonel Pcarsall was interviewed last night by a Journal reporter but stated that he was not in a position to give out any information at the present time on account of the fact that the matter had not been definitely decided. While Mr. Green has always capably performed his duties, end has been highly commended upon his work by his superiors In office, Colonel Pcarsall is a gentleman of ability and his friends feel assured that he will capably fill the office. to deep water in the Pacific is 50 miles has caused the present quarters of the and from shore to shore line is 40 pjne Lumber Company to become miles.

THE SIMPLE LIFE PREVENTION The Wellington Journal says: "The simplest and plainest laws of health are outraged every day by the average man. Did Adam smoke? Did Eve wear a tobacco? Did the children of Israel make for a beer garden after crossing the Red Sea? Did Rebecca chew chocolate bonbons and ice cream and call for soda water? Suppose E e had been laced up in a corset, worn tight shoes and hobble fig leaves, and sat up all hours of the night eating chicken salad and Welch rarebit and trying to keep on four pounds of dead people's hair?" The . simple life physically for the highest in health, as well as the simple life morally for -the supremest spiritual riches. Frills and complexity make for trouble in both spheres It is one of the best signs of the times that private funds are being donated for public health work, for the scien tific prevention of disesae, for the tea ching of the public how to live so as to avoid getting sick, and thereby get the' most out of their lives and be of the arsatest sood to those around them.
