' 'One plank in the platform of the
Feminists demands a single standard
of morality. A noted Feminist writer
frankly declares that it is not their
intention to "drag" up man to the
present level of woman. Logically,
then, thte only alternative left is to
. drag woman down. It has been claimed
all along by the opponents of equal
jpulrage that the result of woman'i
j dabbling in politics would lower her
in the estimation of man. This has
been so Stoutly denied by the suffra
gettes that we are not prepared for
this admission on the part of the
. Feminists.
i We agree with the Feminists, how-
ever, that there should be a single
. moral standard. It seems absurd that
a member of one sex should be put under
the ban for the same acts that a member
; of ttie other may commit with imjpunity,

he can always demand good wages

A boy can begin that when quite small

- demand good wages. In these, days
a good monotype or linotype operator
can make a salary of 8100 to $125 per

the salarv to beein with is not the

POINTED QUESTIONS.
"Ono Who Wants A Home" Wants
Information.
Mr. Editor;
Being a constant reader of the Jour
nal and having the utmost confidence
in the'sincerity of its progressive editors,
yet, as a new comer to this city, it
has afforded me considerable amuse:
ment to read its editorials on "New
Born New Bern.
Let me ask the progressive citizens
of New Bern one question. ' Suppose
an edition of the Journal circulates in
some section of the North or ' West
where, say, 25 families were seriously
considering migrating to this fair city
of New Bern. Without more ado,
notwithstanding the outrageous freight
rates, they would come to this city,
Mr. Booster where would.you put them?
Let' me know of, not twenty-five, but
five houses in this , city that a man
of moderate, circumstances can rent
and make himself a home.
I am not a knocker,' far from it
but for the past nine months I have been
trying my best to find a comfortable
home for myself and family, but. so
far have met with poor success.
Let the progressive citizens who have
property, the boosters, and others
who are advocating the enlargement,
betterment and prosperity of "New
Born New Bern" come forward, and
show to the average man, who is the
bulwark and strength of our country,
come forward and show where a man
moderate circumstances can come
New Bern, provide for himself
Born New Bern," which now seems
to be, a misnomer.

over to the next term of Craven county
Superior Court. Being unable to give
bond for his appearance in the sum
ot nity dollars tne detendant was
committed to jail. . .
. Twiggs is still in bad physical con
dition. After being arrested by a police
man he fought ferociously, and upon
finding that he was no match for the
officer hex began biting himself and
succeeded in tearing several large
pieces of flesh from his hands and arms.
These wounds are giving him trouble
and in addition to this the drug has
left him a nervous wreck.
The negro still sticks to his story
that he had not taken cocaine and
had only had a few drinks of whiskey.
However, this statement is given not
the least credence. '; i

The story of the Mont de Plete, the
great pawnshop of Paris, reads like a
romance. It is the survival of an old
bank conducted by a religions order es
tablished to fight usury. This benevo
lent enterprise was ' given up, to, be
started afresh nnder the direction of
the government In 3801. i when Napo
leon was near the height of his glory.
The profits go to the state and to char
ity to the public 'aid department and
