To express one's self forcibly in slang is comparatively easy. but to use dignified English and still not be trite is another S matter. , ; Also, as George Horace Lori jj.mep has said, "It is easy to .;be. conservative and' easy to be radical ; but to be liberal w a t,rarQ art." Because its ideal t fe bigili the Advance does not v.lind the excuse for boasting as J doeg a periodical, the chief de- sire of which is to be sensational : The Advance has been trying to put a question in the minds of the people as to whether our ?J?rent. system of wording the roads is the best ,that the coun ' try can maintain. . We believe that the, . new board,of County 5omnifi8&ioneri has been elected ,on; a, progressive platform and that they may be depended upon ! to give the iiatter careful ' thought and to change the pres ent, system if they can be con- v vinced that another is better.

Lineat Sawyer in a likable young man abd he mav make a good trial Justice now. Kut r tie record of ins last term is against him. Everybody knows why he was defeated two years ago. But even jrranted that he will now make a judge above reproach he should not have been nominated at this time when he has been less than two years on probation and when apparently at least, his election means the repudiation of Tur ner's efforts to Make Elizabeth City a clean town. The Advance knows that many who consider themselves among the city's best people voted last Tuesday for Ernest h. Sawyer. We cannot see but that these either let person al friendship or private gnidgfc cloud therir judgement. else their conviction in matters of law enforcement ds less strong than their prodtasionl or they permitted themselves to be led to vote against their convictions or to be deceived by campaign falsehood and shibboleth. II there be any who wish to take exception to tJbese remarks they may justify themselves by expos ing corruption vin Turner's re cord not by violence or in vective. , Likewise we do not doubt that many good people Tuesday night rejoioed at TurnerV d flat.

So many anonymous contri butions have reached us re cently that we think it may not be amiss for us to state a gain that this pajier will not receive such matter for pub lication.
