Report from Tarboro this

in the river reached a stand there
last night and would soon begin
falling. Ordinarily the water
stops rising at Greenville about
twenty-four hours after it
reaches a stand in Tarboro, but
with the continued rain of last
night and today it is hard to tell
when it will stop rising. The
rise here last night was inches,
putting the stage this morning
within two feet of the high water
record. Water has reached the
top of the dam beyond the bridge,
and it has been necessary to haul
dirt on it today to keep the dam
from washing in two. Much of
a rise tonight would be a disaster

GREENVILLE. NORTH CAROLINA. FRIDAY SEPT. 1908.
WHAT IS THE CON-
TOBACCO CO
No doubt many people who
heard of the existence of
an organization known us the
Consolidated Tobacco
Co. have asked this question.
Some have asked it through hon-
est motives, really desiring in-
formation on the subject, so that
if it was found worthy their en-
could be given to
it. The Reflector was among
this class of inquirers, and when
the company was first organized
in October. we went to
Mr. L. Joyner, its president
and organizer, and asked him to
give us some information about
the company and an outline of
its policy and purpose. This in-
formation was frankly given.
We had faith in the man and
admiration for his earnestness,
we saw such a business
policy as he had outlined for the
company could be carried out it
would in truth be an ideal
organization through which the
tobacco farmers could protect
their interests and better their
condition.
A result of this information
The Reflector then told its read-
what it thought of the
Tobacco Co. Through
the live years since that time
we have watched the progress
of the company and its methods
of operation, and have never
found occasion to tin
opinion formed of it. n
the contrary our faith has grown
stronger in it each year, and we
do not believe there was ever an
of farmers that of-
bitter opportunities for
their on a betterment than this.
We are d to this further ref-

time by reading a 16-page
entitled About the

of their business interest, then
certainly it was their right and
privilege as citizens to engage
in this business. And last and
most important of all, the to-
warehouse the one

between the farmer who grew
the tobacco and the

an interest in this channel or
gateway, through which his to-

to these good and sufficient
sons, the warehouse business of-

to the growers who invested
their money in it. Therefore,
for these reasons, the warehouse
business was selected as a means
of organizing the tobacco grow-
Concerning the policy of the

who are not familiar with the
methods of the company, we
deem it not amiss here to let it
be known that we are not
any light on any organization
or business, and while the ware-
house has been selected as a
means of bringing the farmers
together into an organized body,
unless we can show to the entire
satisfaction of the tobacco grow-
that this business can be
handled and their interest pro-
in this way better than
any other, then company

It can be truthfully said that
this company is doing more
than all other agencies combined
to promote the markets
of Eastern North Carolina, and
to make tobacco growing

The farmers cannot realize
how much they are indebted to

is now conceded to the night
riders who for many months
have waged war with fire and i
rifle against the American To-
Company. It is now said
the tobacco company has decided
to give up the fight and withdraw
from the State.
This means that the company
will start a price war with the
growers in Kentucky, and the
far reaching effect of such a
battle has caused consternation
among the local tobacco men.
According to reports given out
this afternoon the American To-
Company has withdrawn
its twenty-two country buying
agents from Kentucky. Further
more, it is known that the com-
intends to open up head-
quarters in Cincinnati. Officials
of the American Tobacco Com-
decline to discuss the out-
come of the move.
Louisville has been the
est tobacco market in the world,
thousands of more hogsheads of
tobacco being handled on the
local annually than at
any other point It is generally
believed that the numerous night
rider troubles and the intense
feeling which exists against the
American Tobacco Company at
many places has caused the
of the company to withdraw
their country agents from the

The Duty.
No higher duty can be ascribed
to any reputable newspaper than
that of seeing that justice is done,
in so far as fallible man is caps-
bid of carrying it out. It owes
first duty to the public which
it is morally obliged to protect.
No newspaper willingly offends
any but as between its duty
to the public and the individual,
it should know no man. But the
men who are loudest in their
condemnation of the views of
the newspaper with which they
disagree, are the most exacting
of the paper in any apparent
dereliction of duty to the public.
Such men may not openly pro-
claim the fact, but they are in
reality more appreciative of the
paper which dares to express the
truth, than of one which commits
the unpardonable sin of silence.
