Advertising ra'e furnished upon p Ucation o this office The Greensboro News is getting a lot f praise these days on the excellent paper they are getting out. The News, in our estimation, is one of the best papers in the South and deserves all the nice things coming i(s way. The Ford Motor Company under estimated the damage that they were going to cause when they decided to distribute ten million dollars among their employes. Tuesday a crowd tf ten thousand job hunters stormed the plant and ii was necessary to re sort to the use of the fire hose to cool off the mob. It would have been a much better plan to have given each employe .a certain sum and allowed him to pur sue their duties at t lie usual compensa tion. From all over the Third District conies word that the Democratic voters are anxious for Hon. Charles R Thtmas toreti.ru to Congress. However this is no news. Long before Mr. Thoiras decided to enter the race hundreds of his friends urged that he take this step and it was at their ur gent request that he again entered the frsy. With the voters on his side as they are, Mr. Thomas is assured of again representing the Third District in Congress. W. W. Kitchin ii his last campaign in which he so vigorously assailed Senator Simmons, used every known method of running down his opponent. Every knock was a boost and those "ringstens" who are opposing Hon. Charles R. Thomas' candidacy for nomination as representative to Con gress from this di trict, will find that again will hi-iory repeat itself and that every jab they make at him is in his favor.

The only way to stop the wrangle down in th t Co- titry it; for some nation . to step in and wipe the instigators of' the revolution movement off the map While it is yet early in the season, local baseball "fans" are discussing the probability of the reviving of the old Eastern Carolina Baseball League and getting New Bern to enter a team. The movement started last Spring came near proving successful and it is believed that, if the matter is taken in hand -without delay, that it will be possible to re-organize this league and secure professional baseball for this city during the summer months. The fight for the office of solicitor of the Superior Court in this district ' lias begun and is well under way. So far only two candidates for the office, j J. K. Warren, of Trenton and Charles L. Abernethy of Beaufort, have made : formal announcement. However, there is not the slightest doubt but that there will be other hats thrown into the ring during the next few days and when the final line-up is made there will be At least four contestants.

The express companies of the coun try announce that they will greatly reduce rates, in a few months, even below the figure ordered by the Inter state Commerce Commission, effec tive in February. These companies say the parcel post is wading into them and that their only salvation is to become a competitor of the gov ernment. The people will profit by the reduction and the express com panies will likewise profit. Hasten the day. Greensboro Record. "THE EARLY BIRD GETS THE WORM." Those are political birds down in the Third Congressional District. The mat ter of who shall be the next Democartic Congressional nominee has been agita ting the public mi nd for some months, though it will be summer time before a decision has to be reached. Now the solicitorship, in the Fifth Judicial District, covering perhaps the larger part of the territory embraced in the Third Congressional District, has be come a bone of political contention. It is a post of importance, affording a line field for being of service to the public, and the ambition to win it is an honorable one. News ,in.l Ob server. AN ACHING VOID. "Whenever 1 am about to go before a large audience to lecture," Mr. Bryan is reported to have told a friend, "I am overcome with a sickening and empty feeling deep down in my stomach. Most of us understand exactly what it means, but lie is the last man most of us would ever expect, to confess stage fright. Greensboro News. ON ITS WAY. The boll weevil which has caused a loss in the cotton belt of $500,000,- 000 since its appearance in Texas in 1902, has not yet reached North Carolina, but this is no indication the pest will not appear in the next few years. Despite the government's activity, the boll weevil comes march ing on. Raleigh Times. ANOTHER FOOL STUNT. A couple in Virginia got married under water, which at least shows that some liquid other than booze exists in Virginia, though North Caro linians, beholding express shipments from that S ate, would hardly think such possible.

To the- Voters of the Fifth Judicial District : Yielding to the generous expressions of interest and assurances of loyal support coming from many friends in the district and moved by a full ripe desire upon my own part, I am persuaded to ask for the office of So licitor of the Fifth Juducial District of North Carolina, subject to the will of the people to be fully and freely expressed in their primaries and conven tions assembled. I fully appreciate the great respon sibility assumed by the man who takes the oath of I Ms otttce, and none of the duties connected with the same do 1, in the least, minimize in importance; and if the people in the District will, that 1 shall be intrusted with their performance, I here and now solemnly promise to discharge every duty per taining to the office conscientiously and impartially, to the limit of my skill and ability; and it will be my sincere aim to recognize in full force that maxim of justice, "Equal rights before the law." Dated this the 12th day of January, 1914. Truly yours, Julien K. Warren. ANNOUNCEMENT. To the Democratic Voters of the F'ifth Judicial District: I am a candidate to succeed myself as Solicitor of the F'ifth Judicial Dis trict, and take this method of making known my desires to the District. I have tried to the very best of my ability to perform the high duties of my office conscientiously, fearlessly and impartially. I feel that if I have filled the position acceptably to the law-abiding people of the District that I should be renominated and re elected. The position is one of great responsibility and the experience I have gained while in this office, I feel, enables me to better perform my duties if I had not had the same. I request my friend throughout the District to take an active interest in my behalf for the renomination, and if renominated and re-elected, I prom ise them and the public, that I shall continue as in the past, to use ljiy best efforts and energies , to prosecute, without fear or favor, crime and law lessness in all its forms in tjjie State Courts in the District. , :.
