C, "Ced. 1st, 1913. "Whereas the pastorate of Rev. J. B. Hurley at the Centenary Metho dist Church has ocme to an end, ac cording to the law and custom of the Methodist Episcopal Church, we, the undersigned Christian Ministers of New Bern, and fellow laborers of our loved and esteemed brother, desire to make public expression of our feel ings at the departure of Mr. Hurley and his family.

We regret that the time has come for the termination of this happy and helpful association and comradeship. We also wish to extend to Brother Hurley our sincere wishes and prayers for abundant happiness and fruitful labors in the new field to which he shall be assigned. We take this method of expressing to Mr. and Mrs. Hurley and their family, our true hope and wish that they may have constant peace and happiness, end "great joy in the Lord," throughout the days of their life."

We have been living under a cloud long enough. Other progressive coun ties have passed this law. The lands and farmers are much better, off where they have a stock law. Noiie of them have gone back to the old time way of public road range, cattle ticks, fever and hog cholera. Stock ranging around on the public road is a nuisance, breaking over fences, eat ing up crops, and in this way they do a great deal of damage. There ought to be an end put to this business. .We believe the majority of the farmers are in favor of the stock law. It is true there are some who think it would do them great damage, but the passage, of the stock law would benefit every farmer in Eastern North Carolina. I Yours very truly, Farmer. "Mr. S. H. Hobbs, of Clinton, the president of the State Farmers' Con vention of North Carolina, was in the city yesterday on a visit to friends and in talking of stock law coaditipns in the State, and especially in regard to the controversy between Lenoir and Craven and other counties in that section, he had the following to say: " 'I would consider that if the Sui preme court would decide that Lenoir county would have to do the fencing, instead of Craven and other counties, it might possibly have a tendency to upset progressive agriculture in North Carolina for at least a generation. You see the people of that section of the country are now shut up like frogs in a well. The Federal quar antine laws prevent the shipment of cattle out of all free range territory and the Federal authorities ha e noti fied the people- living in free range territory that under no circumstances will they begin the eradication of the cattle tick until they have established a stock law. Therefore what would be the need of a person investing his money in any improved stock if they are not allowed to ship them out? 'There is probably no country in the world that is a finer place to raise improved stork than Eastern North Carolina if it were not for the cattle tick, and if by any method we can eradicate the cattle tick it will not be long before Eastern North Carolina will be competing with the West in the growing of cattle. So I should consider any measure that would pre vent the establishment of a stock law thereby preventing the eradication of the cattle tick, as being detrimental I CONFESSION Hope.
