TMEY SAY The secular press of this state is certainly united in preaching the gospel of a truer typo of citizenship. Nearly every one of our ex changes has had something to aay recently about "Neighbor hood gossip," "Scandal mon gers" and people who "im agine vain things," or who jump to wrong conclusions. The fact that there has been such a wholesale denunciation of this class of disturbers of the peace of community life is very significant. It shows that they are everywhere in North Carolina and that their harmful work is publicly recog nized. The reputation of no man, woman or child is safe in their hands. They had rather besmirch the character of a person than keep their mouths shut or tell the truth for com pensation. We are not pessi mistic. but we believe that the world is growing worse in its desire to engage in the sin ot tattling. It is high time thai the press, the preachers and the school teachers should speak out iu 110 uncertain sound upon this evil. It is frequently the case that a lady moves alonp strong in the consciousness ol her purity, and yet the wagging tongues of depraved pertfons are seeking to rob her of her divinest rights. The merchant is attending strictly to his business, buying his goods, puying for them and selling them to his customers. But lie has ail enemy who i» willing to spend three cents in stationary and postage stamps "to do him.'' He would spend a lrmdred and three dollars to accomplish his ruiu. The law yer may think that ho is safe, but he is being discussed. "They say" he is taking ad vantage of the common people, that he will never wind up an ostate, that he will lie for a few dollars, that his moral charac ter is bad. "They say" that the school teachers "are teaching for money," that they don't care whether the children learn any thing or not and that they are all partial to a low pupils. "They aay" that the town is run by a few men who want to develop their private property at the expense of public inter ests. "They say" that the min isters are controlled by one or two of their mouthy members, that they will not preach any thing that is displeasing to them. 'They say" that there is some trouble in every church of every denomination. They don't know exactly what it is, but "They say" it exists. "They aay" the newspaper is run in the interest of a cer tain faction, that the editor or manager is bought over, that he is unfair to the people, that he has taken advantage of his position for private gain. We want to go on record as consigning this class of officious agitators and lying, diabolical disturbers of the |>eace and prosperity of our subscribers, to perdition, or somewhere else The Democratic Convention of Martin county assembled in Williams ton on last Thursday at noon. The county chairman, Mr. H. W. Stubbs in well obofen words out-lined the work that was to be transacted. It wm easy to see that the body was made up of the rep resentative men ol the couuty. There was practically no dis order, and the delegates were prompt in reaching their con clusions and in rendering their decissions. We confidently beleive that "The convention plau" of se lecting officers is more unpop ular to-day than ever before in this county. We predict that there will never be another Democratic Convention held. We will have more to say on this subject later. Every man who was put in nomination was thoroughly competent, and would have served the people faithfully. We have an efficient set of men nominated. Let every voter go to the poles and cast his vote for these gentle- There was no preaching iu the town of Williamston on last Sunday. It is hard to believe that a town with such a popu lation should ever be deprived of church priveleges. We have clearly reached the point where Williamston needs one or more station preachers Will not some church move in the matter in t>,e interest ol j the general public?

Aside from the churches in Wil lianiston, there is no public build ing that is more sacred to the hearts of our citizens than the Graded School Building. This bropeitv has been judiciously set apart by persons, some of whom are among us no more, and it has lieen conse crated bv them and by us to n high purpose, the education of qur children along intellectual lines. Surely every inhabitant in the town should have a parilouable pride in this puplic property. The grounds are spacious and the appointments of the building are all that cduld be desired for its present and future uses. The leader in this enterprise cer tainly covered himself with glory and immortalized himself with the people who are worth taking into serious accouut. The property belongs to the town and the school is supported by the taxes of the people. And yet there are some common, coarse people among us who have the vandal spirit. They have committed depredations on the campus and have otherwise trespassed on the property. They hrve written obscene language on the blackboards and have disfigured some of the desks. Th!y have forced open the doors and gone in the building by day and by night. They have broken out the glasses promiscously, and the people's money has been used in replacing them. They have opened pianos and hoisted sashes uear them. Of course, it goes without saying that the instruments exposed have been more or less damaged. The prin cipal of the school has done all within his power to check this law lessness. The trustees have back ed him in this matter. It has been suggested that some of the school boys have been responsible for this damage. Some others believe that little negroes have been the van dals. But there are serious doubts as to this The guilty parties should be caught and punished. In this state it is not necessary to serve a five days' notice for eviction of a cold.

He is expect ed to spend one hour a week at home and the rest of the time abroad, looking after everybody in the city, lie must find out what the congregation wants and do that. To start with he must learn that he is nothing but a servant. He must keep well all the time and respond to every call. He must make everybody feel good on Sun day and l>e satisfied with every thing. He is not expected to lead the people, but he must follow them at a considerable distance He must support himself in a large measure. If his official members never seem to care whether he or his family have bread and meat to eat and clothing to wear, he must regard that as a mark of affection for him.
