UNFAIR TO McLEAK
SATS GOLDSBORO NEWS
, (From the Goldsboro News)
«f.9LW. McLean h& been to
Elizabeth City- and then made a alk
before the KhnaMob. Immediately
after this modest effort, such as Mr
McLean is always contert to make, up'
spake Han. Ike M. Meekins, being also
on the program A* Wilton had been
simple ard prosaic and sensible In his
remarks Col. Meekins was torrential
scintilating, expansive and sky-pierc
ing.
The Elizabeth City Indepe dent
is setM&nc oat marfcat copies calling
r attention to the visit of Mr.
on this ocamr and expressing con
siderable disapproval of Mr. McLean
on account of his submergence in the
oratory of Col. Meekins. who is groom
ed for the Republican rominaticn for
governor, as well as on account of the
fact that certain people in Elizabeth
City, of which the Independe i does
not approve, are friend of the Robe
son man.
■%- 1 ' .
Well, there, is ao accounti" k for
taste in the matter of associates, but
we must seriously objet* to the un
fairness displayed by the Independent
ir comparing Mr. McLean as an oratcr
to Col. Meekins. It is quite unfair
"to take a modest man like Mr. Mc-
Lean, careful of speech, and deliber
a'e of expression as is the manner o
one who expects to stand by what he
says, and compare him with Mr.
Meekins. It is quite a well know:i fact
that Col. Meekins is I he greatest
orator living, and in due process cf
nature he will one day be the greatest
ore dead.

of o'hers? Could any man in Eliz
tbc h City or elsewhere be gu Ity of
so silly a thing? The Elizabrthian.
all knew quite well that if the gover
norship is to follow the merit of ora
tory, then Col. Meekins is n«e only en
- titled to a life tenatry, but to the
right of devisement.
Col. Meekins as an oru'or has no
bounds. Neither time nor spare can I
circumscribe him. His shortest ser.-
tences twist and squirm and choitle
and.whcrtle and surge and splurge
and dazzle, and blakzie, a-d juar and,
soar ami double and bubble, like »he
water coming down at Lodore. His
cimaxes are thunderclaps. His over
tores are hursicanes his undertone,
the rumbling of earthquakes.
When nature formed Meekins in
to an orator she broke the moulds
It is positively sinful to compare Mr.
McLean or anybody else with him.

CHARM
V
There are people who are attracted
most by a wax-doll prefiness in
woman, but not so the large mass of
human. It is something beside
mere beauty which makes the popular
person popular. Wrat is it? What is
"charm?"
Beauty is a physical attribute;
charm a spiritual mm. Beaut/ may
attract attenion and admiration. It
takes charm to hold thaaa. Beauty
can be the possession of only a few.
Charm may be attained by all.
Beauty may be but skin deep, but
charm emnes from the inaiile nl
Like beauty, charm is a eempamtivt
term. One may be more charming or
' less charming. To be most charming,
the charmer must be pin its «ri of
many virtues, for charm is a com
posite result. It does not depend on
age feature, nor class but is rather
sb
a p:oiuct of diipm itisa.
