What Goldsboro wasi twenty-nine years ago and what it is today is on a par with what the Argus was twenty nine years ago and what the paper is today. Goldsboro and the Argus have come along together, "building the scaffold of our years of joys and sor rows, smiles and tears"; and so to day, retrospective, we face the future together as of yore, bouyantly "An' with upon our brows the breeze Of ither years to woo us, We hold ane' ither's hand and think In Company With Secretary Daniels me secretary of State Will Reach the State Capitol Tomor row Morning. Washington, April 6. Secretary of fatate William J. Bryan told Senator Simmons today that he would attend the "home-coming week" celebration at New Bern during next month, the date to be determined when the sec retary decides what time will be con venient for him. Although Mr. Bryan was still con fined to his home with a bad c aid he expects to be able to leave here to morrow night with Secretary Daniels- and attend the progressive Democratic conclave at Raleigh on Wednesday The two cabinet members will arrivr in Raleigh about 6 o'clock Wednesday morning, and will return on the mid night train the same day. The Seaboard passenger department has arranged for a special car for the two distinguished passengers. The car will be cut off at Raleigh and re main in the union station until the midnight train arrives. Much interest was shown here today in the story that Mr. Bryan hal told the progressive Democrats that the seggregation question must be elim inated if his presence was desired. Few members of Congress,-indeed, if any are in favor of this proposed SALVATION ARMY he blushingly received the prize awarded him. Thus concluded the greatest schoo1 commencement Goldsboro has evei known, and already our people are looking forward to and talking about next year's County Commencement. How gude God has been to us; How He has kept our hearts sae true And held the sunshine o'er us An taught us when He sent a cloud He knew what best was for us." And in this same spirit we open our new volume today, in which to continue to chronicle the daily record of The Best Town in the State. "We go forward. Salvation Army officers from Ral eigh, Capt. G. B. Austin, Envoy Mrs. Smith, and Envoy E. W. Walker will be in Goldsboro Thursday to hold street meetings, a meeting at the jail, and will be glad to visit the sick where request is made. Capt. Austin took charge of The Army work in Raleigh last November and much good has been done, and The Army is now considered to be indispensable for the well being of the city. ' A visit from these officers will be made to Goldsboro at least once in three months, as this city has been attached to Raleigh by The Army -leaders. plan. At one time today there was some disposition on the part of those in close touch with the Raleigh move ment to- discredit the story that Mr. Bryan had refused to go to Raleigh unless the segregation plank was elim inated. But when asked to make a statement defying the story these same people were not willing to do so. They admitted that Mr. Bryan was op posed to the plank, but stated "con fidentially" that he "probably" did not issue an "ultimatum." The writer, however, is assured that the story is true, and if any one desires to deny it, corroborative evidence has been prom ised by men of high character, who say they know Mr. Bryan's position and the action which he took when the nature of the seggregation plank was disclosed to him. band will present a program in the afternoon including cornet S0I03 by Mr. Kryl.
