It is try ing to influence its employes to vote for the Republican nominee. The Pennsylvania railroad, represented by certain departmental heads, is work ing on that side of the political fence, even to the extent of whooping things up for the Hughes torchlight proces sion Saturday in New York city,, while there are reports of big corporations in the Middle West attempting to in timidate its employes sp that they will cast their ballots. for Hughes, The lat- BRUNSWlC K'S'-MAIDE N FAIR. v -Tomorrow and Saturday Brunswick county will ' present .its maiden fair, the scene being Bolivia, which is cen trally located. The fair," judging both by preparations and enthusiasm, Is go ing to be a big event; not only a suc cessful bnefrom an artistic stand point, but a success In sowing the seed whereby a harvest in-the 'future 'may be reaped. The fair will go far to wards advertising the advantages of Brunswick and in laying a foundation upon which greater advertising may be done.

It needs no physician's certificate to show that the Rumanians are feeling all run down. ing as the employer wants should be prosecuted and punished. It is an old trick on the part of the Republi cans. They have not only been known to attempt to direct the votes of their employes, but during a campaign have been known to curtail work, in an ef fort to prove that times were hard under a Democratic administration and the men should vote the Republi can ticket in order to haveJobs. ' The cases of the DuPont Company and the Pennsylvania road perhaps cannot be readied by the law, but can be reached by public sentiment; by an outraged public, battling for its rights; by sentiment that will proclaim to the plutocratic class that this is not en off, if possible, but if not torn-off , so that the outside world may see the great resources of Brunswick and thereby the county progress, as it should, and the splendid people, that populate it, be benefited as they are entitled to be. All needed is for Brunswick to get its advantages before the world. It is rich in many w&ys. The soil is most fertile, there is plenty of grazing land for raising cattle and it has one of the finest harbors in the country, at Southport. This is a combination that few counties in this country possess and they should be taken advantage of. There are, of course, numerous ways for doing so, but one of the best is a monarchy, but a, fcee .country, where I to stir up more interest at home, which Next Tuesday every loyaL American should stand" by "his guns against the sons-of-guns. men cannot be driven to do the will of "bosses" through fear. Theaction of these big corporations clearly defines the lines of battle. It leaves no question as to which nom inee stands for the people and which for the "special interests." The only question is will the people see clearly enough, not to be frightened, stamped ed or tricked jnto voting against their own best interest? That is the ques tion that is paramount to all others in this election, as it is a question of hu- tman rights, than which there can be none greater and upon which stands the entire structure of fair government and happy existence.

The North Carolina case involving the validity of the Webb-Kenyon act was postponed yesterday when it came !up for hearing in the United States Supreme Court. The delay was made in order to permit the hearing of a similar case at the same time. In the interest of time and work this was the logical decision, but the ques tion should be settled as shortly as For those who desire to commit sui-; possible. Upon the outcome depends cide, the way is clear and the goal is I whether a State will be allowed to will bring development in two ways. It will enthuse the inhabitant to work more and furnish him with the reasons and the information for attracting out side capital. A fair is one of the fac tors in this process; hence, the Bruns wick fair, which will bring together the people of the county, will marshall its resources, so that they may be seen and appreciated by both home folks and outsiders, is an important event. Wilmington takes deep interest in the fair; not only because it has for its object the building-up of Bruns wick, but because some of the leading citizens of this city are natives of the county just across the Cape Fear. m & ; .

The. only difference between Roose velt and the seven-year itch is that the former doesn't wait , seven years to break out. The end of October only brought a change of months. The balmy May weather we still have with us. If figures don't lie, then it must be admitted that those who are giving them out on the result of the election are doing so. Tuesday night the Virginia prohi bitionists raised their voices in glad ness, while those not prohibitionists were probably too full for utterance. Bill Spivens, after taking a squint around, bears the intelligence that a man doesn't have to be a poet to be well versed. The public is informed that there will be no strike of New York dress makers. Evidently, they appreciate the seamy side of life. The Democrats have got to keep alert, because the Republican party on election day is always Johnnie on the ten-dollar spot. regulate itself. This, in turn, is going to decide whether the agitation for a constitutional amendment providing prohibition for the nation becomes greater and shortly materializes into a reality, ...If. state rights are involved in a constitutional amendment, why would not state rights be jeopardized by a constitution which denied a state the right to forbid the shipment of liquor into ks territory, which a ma jority of the people have decreed shall be dry? So in assailing the Webb Kenyon act on the grounds of being unconstitutional the attackers find themselves in a dilemma, trying to in terfere with state rights, a plea that they make against a National consti tutional amendment. MAY HAVE TO COME TO IT. By the way the women of the west are giving the fashionable women froin the east the ha, ha,' for coming to tell them how to vote is apt to make the latter sore-ciety. A news item informs that America's biggest dam cost $10,000,000. Prob ably so up-to-date, but unless the vot ers are careful, a Roosevelt damn will cost the country many times that amount. So intrepid is William Randolph Hearst that he brings the tidings that if necessary he will fight Mexico him self. Can't Old Necessity, in conjunc tion with the Fool Killer, get on the job? Ifc Is noticed that those folks on this side of the Atlantic who are yelling M 1 1 i . . . ior one or me omer or ine .European countries to lick the stuffings out of some other one do not intend to go over and help 'em do it. If prices of commodities keep going up why the-, central powers are apt to behold an embargo on certain things without their seeking. It will not be an unneutral act, but. one done to pro tect the people of this country. It will be action for self-protection. The peo ple of this country must be first pro tected. It is a poor brand of justice that will sit supinely down and allow the necessities of life to be shipped from the country of production, mak ing the home folks suffer that others may get and that a few, very few. brethren, may pile up money in vaults. And what good does money do with out life? A man with an appetite could not appease his desire, nor sustain life by devouring banknotes, not even if they were of the highest denomina tion. Justice that will permit such condi tion tp exist is not only blind, but paralyzed. If ever an attempt was made to crush a candidate between the upper and nether stones, and with that ob ject accomplished the jaws would grind away on each other, it is pre sented in the case of President Wilson. Now the people are regaled with an editorial in the II Giornale Italiano, which appeals to the Italian voters to ! go against Wilson because he has not plunged the United States into war on the side of the Allies. Was ever a more paradoxical picture offered to try and ambush the voters than that of "vote against Wilson because he has not swatted Great Britain" and "vote against Wilson because he has not lined the United States up with the entente powers?" This may make a political martyr of Woodrow Wilson, but it is the greatest tribute of all to pure neutrality and for defeat to come as the result of this conglomer ation of contradictory ideas and irre concilable objects would cast a cloud over the sky for America and would betoken evil days near at hand. In view of all this, is it not time for every man and every woman voter who loves fair-play, who is conscious of devotion to America and who be lieves in the happiness of the fireside to stand by the Democratic nominee? SPLENDID CO-OPERATION. Jflngiish8tatesmen are charging that te raid on shipping along the Atlan tic coast by the U-53 was the work of Captain Boy-Ed. This won't injure the Captain, but will rather be good for several more Iron Crosses to be hung to his coat. One big factor contributing towards, the success of the Wilmington corn show is the realization of th people of this section that the show is pro moted in the interest of the entire sec tion. Their appreciation, their co-operation and their boosting are most important in making this show a big success. Thi3 is understood by the people of Wilmington and deeply ap preciated by them. The Bladen Journal sounds this ral lying cry in this week's issue: "Now that our county and commun ity fairs are over, let's get ready, for the general summary the Wilming ton Corn Show. If we make a per manent thing of this, as is promised, it will give the adjacent section a healthy rivalry to come as the finish to the local county fairs." V Whether sweet dreams will be real ized or not, it is at least temporarily pleasing to hear a Wilmington milk dealer talking about the possibility cf dropping the price of the lactic fluid below 10-cent per quart. We are frank to admit, that we hardly expect that Utopian day to dawn upon the people of Wilmington any time soon; yet, the reflection, as a possibility, is pleasant in view of the fact that the dairymen of Montgomery and Memphis have advanced the price and the Charlotto milkmen are talking about hoisting it. ft'--..
