These two would nie.tr. much to Martin County and it" farmers, Thi3 cotinty has for a number of years betti in the Fourth Judicial Dlttricl. With the change in the arrangement of the Districts with additioml nes, making twenty in all, Martin County is placed In thi Second District w+fb ti»» emmjiw of Washington, Edgecombe, Nash and Wilson. New Vork, it is said, is iu need of efficient police. Ever heard anything like that before* Sounds familiar. The«e must ho other places in the same box The work of the Legislature has as a whole been good, but tbt fail ure to enct a Piiuiary law is so stupendous that it over-shadow* other things done. It is rather strange that a ?et of men who art pledged to the s;o id of the whole should so sadly uegleit matters so grave. When some tuvß cease to fool the people 11!o ihr.t they are the proper men to be gent to make laws at Unlei'fh, '.Vers the State may Ret rv-1 "t f from the bane of the open convention. With the.»«: men out more good whole some legislation might be pu*. into force.

But we must uot, stop in our work for the factory] and thia road. Keep moving. "All's Quiet Aiontf The Potomac" Gov. Locke Crate's announce ment that tbe inauguration of Woodrow Wilson was more like an ordination, does not sound strange to those who have ssudied - the President aatl the conditions con fronting him. lie has dedicated himselt to the people aud to the people's iuterest, and though the conditions are not so bed, yet the affairs of uiuety-six mitttoms of . Americans are stupendous. Then tbe shaping of things by Democra tic rules after sixteen years ot con tinuous Republican administration, Is the work of a man, and none but a man can steer the Ship of State into safe watefs. The first ten days of the ties' ad ministration have passed. and both the President and his co-workers are busily engaged in adjusting mutters according to the principles Which won out in the gioaie-t tical campaign IU the history of the country. President WiLsou is a woekeT—and no other kind of man hvt ever accomplished an 1 tiling worth while in or out of thi Kx«; cntivu iffice. That cilice is ro place for bluster or po:iug—:ht IAO previous adnrni'tratfon? hive sick ened the people 011 both The Mexican situation is, p■ t haps, the gravest that the uew ud ministration will have ?o confront.

The people of Europe fail to take the doso they are offering for the consideration of the United States. One task that tbe new adminis tration will have, is the great crowd of o.Ttce seekers who have to ler satisfied. It is tiaturdl and just that; tli? Democrats (should have a part in the affairs of a DtMDcritie y.v ernment. Sympathetic wciker? C3n best conduct the affair-. ot t'.ie ctuutiy to the betterment of-wlrc'.i the party stands pledged.
