in Craven county. A great many are
raised but nothing near the number
that could be. Our farmers, if they
were so disposed, could make the profits
that are now going to Armour and other
big packing houses. It is to be hoped
that our farmers will see the opportun
ities that P'before them and put
more time aa money into cattle raising.
In this wavwe may be saved the high
prices, keep the money at home and

Sulzer's defense that those contri

weak. It seems strange that Sulzer's
friends should pick out campaign timej
to make him gifts if those gifts were not
intended to be used to defray the

or will have to put up a better defense
than that, it would seem.
Chi ii man Smmons, of the Finance
Committee, estimates that at the end
of the fiscal year, June 30, 1914, the
first under the new tariff, there will be
s surplus of $18,000,000 in the Treasury.
$18,000,000, sounds big but when it is
taken into consideration that the ex
penditures in a year's amount to the
enormous sum of $1,000,000,000 and
more, it will be seen that in the eyes
of the government, it is really a very
amall amount.
The Washington Post which, by the
way, is not too friendly to the present
administration, is of the opening that
Simmons is mistaken and that really
there will be a deficit instead of a sur
plus. The Post figures it out very nice
ly and what it says sounds very plaus
ible, but we are of the opinion that
Simmons knows about what he is talk
ing about. It would do no good to make
statements not based en facts even
if he were inclined to do so.
RAISS MORE CATTLE.
"If the Southeast Is to become the
great cattle growing section that it
should in view of its natural advant
ages and the present and growing
demand for cattle with commensurate
prices, farmers must quit selling their
female and immature stock," declares
Dr. C. M. Morgan, dairy agent of the
Southern Railway, who sounds a warn
ing against a continuation of the whole
ale deport., tion of cattle from the
South.
"Farmers sho' I 1 keep their heifers
end build up the u . lity of their stock
by the use of pure bred bulls of daily
or beef type as desired," says Dr.
Morgan. "This is the only 'way to
Increase the number or the quality
of cattle in the Southeast. The scarcity
of cattle is world wide and it will never
be possible to secure enough pure bred
cattle to develop the industry in the
southeast unless these precautions are
taken."
"Farmers who sell calves are simply
giving the dealer a good part of the
profit they should have themselves.
If calves were fattened en the farm,
using cotton seed meal as a concentrate,
a higher price per pen ad would be
received and the farmer would but
oaly profit by this and tie additional
weight, but would have in the manure
15 per cent, of the fertilisiag value
of the cotton seed meal."
With the predict! of dollar steak
eeafrontlng us these view of Dr. Morgan
tniai pertinent and interesting. To
prevent the price of beef reaching such
extreme heights we must raise more
title right here in the Smith. So long
a we neglect this and import a large
part of our meat, just to loaf will we
have to pay these high prices, that

A bill has been introduced in the
legislature to compel keepers of public
resorts, such as hotels, theatres, etc
to open their doors to members of the
national guard. Such a law should
never pass. Hotel keepers and other
like money too well to turn out a so
dier or anybody else if he is decent
and behaves himself. The fact that
they refuse to entertain them shows
that these pseudo-soldiers have not
met these requirements in the past.
No keeper of a public resort should be
compelled to open the doors to a class
of people, who, in the past, have made
themselves objectionable, until this
particular class show signs of reforma
tion from within. When they deserve
to be admitted along with decent
respectable citizens, they will be ad
mitted without the passing of a law
to that effect. Of course this works
hardship on a great part of the guard
who are respectable citizens and who
are not fools from the minute they don
a khaki suit; but they must share the
fate of the rest until the better element
prevails and the guard ceases to be
in some respects, little better than a
mob at times.
The following from the Greensboro
News on this subject is interesting:
"But the provisions inserted in the
bill compelling keepers of public resorts,
such as hotels, theatres, etc., to open
their doors to men wearing the uniform
if there is no other reason for barring
them out is food for serious reflection.
Why have these people barred out the
soldiers to begin with? Certainly their
money is as good as anybody else's, and,
in the State of North Carolina at least
there was no prejudice against the uni
form to begin with.
"The plain truth is that the disgracing
of the uniform has not all been on the
side of the civilians. More than once
the encampment of the National Guard
at Morehead City has brought with it a
horde of toughs, who have made life a
burden to everybody in the vicinity
Many of the soldiers seem to consider
that the wearing of the uniform gives
them license to prey on the country
around, whereas the exact reverse
should be true. If anybody ought to
behave himself it is the man wearing the
uniform of the United States.
"Certainly there is disgrace to the uni
form when a soldier wearing it is re
fused admittance to, say, a theatre. But
is the man at the door to blame, or those
soldiers whose conduct in the past has
made the theatre manager afraid to
trust uniformed men among his patrons
It strikes us that there is at least
a question as to who disgraced the
uniform.
"When the man who commits an
offense in khaki or olive drab is pun
ished more swiftly, more surely and
more vigorously than the man who
commits the same offense in civilian
clothes, instead or less so, it will be
time to inquire into the alleged disgrace
of the uniform by those who are wear
ers of it out from among peaceful, law
abiding people."
We agree with the News that if any
body ought to behave it is the man who
wears the uniform of the United States.
When he does that he need have little
fear of being discriminated against.
Moral suasion is a fine thing if it
works. But what is the president
going to do if it fails?
Messrs. Sulzer, Thaw and Schmidt
will please step aside and make room
for the world's erica.
That amendment to the constitution
relating to reading the Bible in the
schools should be left out. You can't
legislate religion into people.
The Japs still seem to be looking
for trouble. Sooner or later we are
going to have to attend to that gang.
Roanoke, Va., Oct. 2. Two regis
tered packages, one of $10,000 and an
other containing $1,100, are missing
from the registered pouch of the post
office at Pochontas, Va. Coincident
with the disappearance of the two
packages a local detective agency has
been asked by postoffice inspectors at
Bluefield, W. Va., to locate Edwin M
Silberger, assistant postmaster at Po
cahontas for whose arrest Federal
warrants have been issued chargin
Silberger with the robbery of the two
packages.
It is known Silberger came east as
far as Roanoke on an early morning
train. The conductor described th
wanted mah as having boarded his
train at Bluestone Junction, five miles
from Pocahontas, and to have pa
him a cash fare to Roanoke.
The two registered packages were
locked in the pouch and left in Sil
berger's charge to be sent East to de
positories, then ten thousand dollar
package by a Pocahontas bank t
Lynchburg and Northern correspond
ents, the smaller package containcc
Postmaster M. L. Mustard's remit
tances.
Silberger is described as being a
Hungarian, having been assistant
postmaster for three years, with dark
hair and eyes, slight build and a fash
ionable dresser. He is married and
has two children.

STRUCTURE DESTROYED DUR
ING THE FLOOD IS BEING
REBUILT.
Rapid progress is being made in the
work of rebuilding the Neuse river
county bridge, leading from New Bern
to Bridgeton and which was destroyed
during the storm and flood which visi
ted this section on September 3.
Just a month ago yesterday morning
this structure was torn away by the
wind and water and in the few short
weeks which have followed, wonderful
progress has been made in its recon
struction. the County Commissioners
lost no time in getting a force of men
at work on the remains of the bridge
a few days after the catastrophe and
they have succeeded in relaying the
flooring for about two thirds of its
length.
Of course there is much work yet to
be done, but there is not the least doubt
but that the bridge will be open to
traffic by November 1. In the meantime
the ferry line is being operated be
tween this city and Bridgeton.

HEADACHY, COSTIVE,
BILIOUS "CASCARETS."
Sick Headache, Bad Breath, Sour
Stomach, mean Liver and Bowel
are clogged Cheer Up!
Get a 10-cent. box.
Sick headache, biiliousness, dizziness,
coated tongue, foul taste and foul
breath always trace them to torpid
liver; delayed, fermenting food in the
bowels or sour, gassy stomach.
Poisonous matter clogged in the in
testines, instead of being cast out
of the system is re-absorbed into the
blood. When the poison reaches the
delicate brain tissue it causes con
gestion and that dull, throbbing, sick
ening headache.
Cascarets immedaitely cleansee th
stomach, remove the sour, undigested
food and foul gases, take the excess
bile from the liver and carry out all
the constipated waste matter and
poisons in the bowels.
A Cascaret tonight will surely
straighten you out by morning. They
work while you sleep a 10-cent. box
from your druggist menas your head
clear, stomach sweet and your liver
and bowels regular for months.
