A newspaper's advertising space is
i a part of its stock in trade, and you
therefore have no more right to go
to the newspaper office and ask it to
give you a free advertisement than
you have to go to your groceryman
and ask him to give you a free pack
age of coffee or sugar.
The citizen who can always find so
much about his town to criticise
thereby acknowledges to the world
that lie has either had very little in
fluence in shaping its destinies or else
has helped to make a very bad job
of it. And either acknowledgement
is no special credit to him.
When you remember that the fly

the deadly germs of typhoid fever,
cholera infantum, sleeping sickness,
infantile paralysis, tuberculosis, pel

eases, how then can 3ou help but
swat him evtry chance you get.
Of course nil the politicians who
want office are great friends to the
farmer until they once get the office,
but the gaol of their ambition once
achieved some of them are mighty
quick to forget their farmer friends
until they want office again. The
farmer's best friend is one who is a
friend to him all the time, and he is
coming to find out that this is true.
North Carolina produced more cot
ton to the acre last year than any
other Southern State, the average
yield being 245 pounds of lint cot
ton to the acre. Young man, you
who may be thinking of quitting the
North Carolina farm and going
West in search of a better farming
country, how does that sound to
you?
Word comes from Washington
that President Taft has fallen on a
new plan tor settling rows in the
Republican party in the Southern
States. When the different factious
cannot agree, he proposses to send
them all back home to hold a state
Convention, aud the winners get all
'h.ite House recognition, which
means control of Federal patronage.
If bonds were issued to macadam
ize every public highway in Vance
county, the farmer's part of the tax
would probably not amount to any
thing like as much as the cost of the
vehicles and teams he now wears out
on the bad roads in the runof ayear.
And in addition to the saving, he
would then have the advantages and
satisfaction the good roads would
afford him.
No less than G3,000,000 barrels of
beer were sold in the United States
during the twelve months ending
June .10th, or an increase over the
preceding twelve months of 0 21 per
cent. The whiskey bill for the year
was $140,973,000, an increase of
nearly f 8,000,000 over the preced
ing year. And in this connection it
is stated that prohibition has af
fected the trade considerably.
There are many good farmers in
the North and West just now who
are turning their faces Southward
and are seeking good farms in this
section of the country. Our local
real estate men might be able to do
a profitable business both for them
selves and the county by making a
special effort to get in touch with
some of these good Northern and
Western farmers and locating them
in Vance county.
One of the very first and most
valuable lessons that amateur news
paper reporters need to learn, and
must learn before they can ever hope
to win any degree of success or dis
tinction at the business, is accuracy
absolute accuracy, in their state
ment of facts. Iet a reporter once
get the reputation of being inaccurate
and unreliable in such matters, and
he or she might as well quit the busi
ness at once and for good. It may
be a little tempting at times to take
the statements of those who have
heard a litle something about
a matter, and that little something
all wrong, rather than go to the
trouble to make a thorough investi
gation of the facts. But such a
course has its inevitable reward, and
that reward is failure and disrepute,
and finally down and out. A re
porter may be able to palm off inac
curate reports on the public for a j
while, but that sort of thing wou't
last long. Some one is sure to call ,
the game 60oner or later. You may !
hp flhla to fool all the people for a!
short time, and some of the people
all the time, but you cannot hope to
fool all the people all the time. There
is no place for a lazy bone in the
anatomy of a wide-awake and suc

A LITTLE RIDE INTO THE COUN
TRY
And Some
Reflections Awakened
Thereby.
I have bean considering how we
might arrange for and establish in
and around Henderson and In Vance
and the three adjoining counties,
twenty public libraries, five hundred
miles of trolley lines, twenty parks
and pleasure resorts, five hundred
miles of macadamized roads, oiled so
as to avoid dust and attract tour
ing cars; water and light and r-'
phone systems in every house, t.vu
or three large colleges and a thous
and factories. There are many who
say eight thousand white people and
nine or ten thousand black ones are
all we want here. Yet it is very cer
tain that the adjuncts of civilization
named above are greatly to be tie
sired. It is equally certain that our
eight thousand white people and ten
thousand negroes can never get
them.
Sometimes when the preacher
thanks the Lord for having "cast
our lot in pleasant places" I feel like
saying Amen! It is so fine, so quiet,
so easy, so grandly home-like here.
Yet when business or pleasure calls
me to roam to a county containing
every one of the above institutions,
and I remain there and eDjoy them a
few days, it seems so far from my
office to my house, the main street of
Henderson seems so bare and dull,
my horse and carriage look so poor
and ugly, that I seem to feel a kind
of discontent. If we had in Vance
county 200,000 people we could
have every one of those luxuries of
life and yet our taxes and expenses
of Mving would be no greater than
they are now. That number of peo
ple and their horses and cattle would
make every foot of our lands "as rich
as river low-grounds."
In that number, there would be so
many ideas to stir up our lives and
conduct and show truth in so many,
to us, new forms, that life would not
be a mere pursuit of happiness, but
it would sometimes be overtaken.
Our taxes on that number of people
and the increased value of the prop
erty would enable us to maintain a
system" of compulsory education,
and all our thoughts would widen
and enlarge. Our factories would
supply our needs and bring in a.Il the
money required.
The conditions of thrift and luxu
ry, learning and "creaturecomforts"
that I have described above do actu
ally exist in hundreds of communi
ties in these United States. Why do
we not have them? How can we get
them? Do we want them? We set
up in business here about the same
time as the other Eastern States,
and long, long before many of the
Western States. I am forced to re
flect upon the difference in conditions
with them and us. J suppose every
one has done so, and has felt as a
last resort, "So let it be, 6ince it can
not be so." But it ought not to be
so. We ought to desire and have,
for ourselves and for our children,
every blessing that a kind Providence
has placed within the reach of any.
I do want them, and 1 want them
bad.
Are we willing to pay the price? A
friend of mine removed to the North,
and after many years returned to
visit his brother, whose sons were
then grown men, complaining of
hard times. They worked pretty
well, like everybody else in their
neighborhood, from April to July,
with a hundred years behind time
system of farming; and hunted and
fished and rested the remainder of
the year. He told them of the farmer
boys of his neighborhood in the
North who rose at three a. m. the
year round, milked a herd of cows and
carried the milk to the milk train
that passed to the city at ( a. m.,
and who were growing rich year by
year.
And it seems to me that the curse
of two totally different races living
in the same territory, and the very
pleasant and gracious climate, enab
ling us to earn some sort of a living
by working one-third of our time,
are the very things that have kept
us from the accumulations that would
add so much to our wealth and hap
piness. The man in Massachusetts has to
warm his family, his vegetables and
fruits and cattle from October to
May, and work "like the mischief
indoors in winter and outdoors in
summer to make both ends meet.
This creates the getting and saving
habit. Result: The money in the
savings banks in the 14 little coun
ties of Massachusetts is sufficient to
buy and pay for all the land in North
Carolina and everything on it at the
prices we think it is worth, and be
sides, they have for their credit, use
and enjoyment the roads, parks,
trolley lines, schools, colleges, libra
ries, compulsory education, muse
ums, etc., and thefr taxes in Boston,
with all the graft are not near so
heavy as ours. My old friend Ben
Smith says: "A nigger can make
enough money Monday to feed him
all the week. Nobody don't care
nothing about him and he don't care j
nothing about nobody. What he
want to work for?" And if one
wants to farm, with a little steer as
ajbasis of credit he can get three to
five hundred dollars credit in a time
store. White people, as well, make
aliving so easy that wedon't trouble
ourselves to make much more than
a living. We often remind me of the
Arkansas Traveler, who, when asked
why he didn't patch a leaky roof,
said: "It's too bad to patch it while
it's raining, and when it ain't rain-
inir I don't need it." So he picked
i his banjo as the rain poured in.
These thoughts have been on my
i mind all rav lite, and have caused me
to in a rush and work overtime
whenever I had anything to do.

and more without the blessings tnat
thrift and a large population would
bring us. Of course there is much
industry and prosperity and culture
about in spots; but nothing to be
compared with what there would be
if we bad ten times as many people
as we have and were three times as
busy as we are.
I wish to live to see the day when
two-thirds of the land in Vance
county will not lie idle; when we will
cease to cut aud sell our little pine
trees; when we will cease to pay a
hundred thousand dollars per year
for commercial fertilizers, and will
have cattle sufficient to fertilize all
the land we till. The satisfactory
prices of farm products in recent
vpiirs have to some extent stimulated
It; study and cultivation of corn and
cjtton. Our country is improving
greatly, but so many others are
doing so much better. I want to
live to see the day when trolley lines
and public parks and lakes, macad
amized roads and the other conven
iences and comforts of modern civili
zation shall abound in this good
land where ray ancestors and 1 have
lived so long.
I should not write all this if I
thought "anybody but us" wonld
see it. One can afford to scold his.
own folks a little. These reflections
have been aroused again by a little
ride I took last week. I boarded a
street car in Boston. While waiting
for it to start, my eye alighted on a
large placard, viz: "ft is a misde
meanor and will subject you to a
fine of $100 to spit in this city except
into a receptacle provided for the
purpose.
I rode 19 miles into the country,
through the "Middlesex villages and
farms" that Paul Revere roused on
"the 19th of April, '75." The ride
cost me 23 cents, going and the same
returning. The road was macadam
ized the eutire distance, and oiled,
and so smooth and firm that dust
was impossible. Alfulong the road
were great stone troughs to water
horses and cattle, great farm houses,
immense elms, public school houses,
libraries, power houses, factories,
parks, market and flower gardens,
monuments and tablets, churches
Methodist Baptist, Presbyterian,
Episcopal, Catholic, Unitarian, Swe
denbofgian, Christian Science
Longfellow's home, Harvard College,
with its nearly a hundred buildings,
libraries, museums; the Washington
Elm.
Concord excited and interested me
to the limit. I saw the home and
the grave of R. W. Emerson and the
fields and the woods where he com
muned with nature and with God
and saw and revealed so much of
Him to us. Here is what is inscribed
on a brouse tablet inserted in a
large flint boulder at his grave:
"The passive Master lent His hand
To the vast soul that o'er him planned."
Hard by are the graves of Haw
thorne, and of Louisa M. Alcott, and
of Miss Peabody, who invented kin
dergarten. Aud there is the bridge
where the first blood of the Revohu
tionary war was shed. Two soldiers
killed on each side. Over the British
boys I read:
"They come three thousand miles aud
died,
To keep the past upon its throne;
Unheard beyond the ocean tide,
Their English mother made her moan."
On the side of the bridge where the
American soldiers the Minute Men
stood, the inscription is:
"By the rude bridge that arched the
flood,
Their flag to April's breeze unfurled,
Here the embattled farmers stood
And fired the shot heard 'round the
world."
Nearby was Waldenand Thoreau's
Cairn, where he meditated upon the
meaning of life. There was the old
manse in which Emerson and Haw
thorne spent their early married life
and Hawthorne plucked the
"Mosses." The entire atmosphere
was luminous with history and liter
ature. It was a "mount" to me
worthy of "three tabernacles" at:
least, and it had them. 1 wish that
everyone who wishes to appreciate
the blessings he has and to obtain
other and greater, could go to Con
cord and Lexington and the Wash
ington Elm, and Longfellow's home,
and Harvard College, and Fanueil
Hall, and the old South Meeting
House, and the old State house, and
"the old three cornered hat and the
breeches and all that" immortalized
by Dr. Holmes, and the picture of
the man who wrote the hymn "Coro
nation," and the organ on which he
first played it, and the thousand and
one other relics of the olden time on
which our new time is builded; and
that each and all might come away
resolved to do nothing more to "keep
the past upon its throne;" but deter
mined to make new efforts to fire
shots that will better and bless the
world. T. T. n.

No Hearing on Cottoa Schedule.
According to a Drees disDatch from
Washington, there will be no hearing :
oy me House ways and means com
mittee with regard to revision to the
cotton schedule. The dispatch goes
rn to say:
- D. Y. Cooper and other manufac
turers in North Carolina wrote Rep
resentative Claude Kitchin, a mem
ber of the committee, asking that a
hearing be granted, but Chairman
Underwood and his colleagues are of
the opinion that the bearing taken
two years ago by the Payne commit
tee cover the field.
However, the committee will be
glad to receive briefs from any man
ufacturer or individuals, who have
anything new to offer or suggest
with regard to the cotton subject.
There will be a thirty per cent cut
in the duties on cotton manufactur
ed goods. This is about the amount
of the cut made in the wool schedule
eliminating the compensatory du
ties. The committee has not reach
ed a decision but it was learned that
the reduction will be about as stated
a Iwive.
Representative Kitchin is studying
up on cotton which is a familiar
subject to him. He will be ODe of
the-; members 0f the committee to
speak in support of the cotton revis
ion echeiule.
While the House will pass the cot
ton revision schedule, it is hardly
thought that the Senate will act on
it until next winter.

Save the Earnings.
A Chicago millionaire came to this
country forty years ago with only 12
cents in his pocket, says an Ohio pa
per, and the other day, referring to
it, he said he laid down this rule:
"Never to be out of work and never
to spend as much as you earn." It
was that rule that made him a mil
lionaire, and that is the kind of mil
lionaire that is entitled to honor.
His idea is that it is good for a
man to save, for economy is a heal
thy habit. As a rule men can live on
half tbey 6pend. have better health,
and can do more work. Let a man
sit down and make a list of what he
needs, not scantily but bountifully,
and he will be surprised how many
things he cau cut out and yet keep
body and mind in one condition.
There are many things that one
buys that are the objects of his
fancy. He sees them and wants
