MEN'S LIVES NARROWER.
E. C. T. T. S. NOTES
Concentration Prevents the Fullest
Enjoyment
Sometimes I think men have very
much less capacity for large living
than women, says J. Ridgway,
In the for November. Men
concentrate better, perhaps, but the
effect is not all
Men live one at a time. In early
manhood they live in the
life of dreams, visions, hopes,
In middle age they live in the
present. Concentrating on their life
work. Making a record. Cashing In
only dreams. Little time for
In old age they live mostly in
the past. Timid, in their waning
power, they essay no mighty deeds,
but dream over the dreams and fight
over the fights of their splendid days.
Is it not so
How different from a woman's life
or it seems to me. If I have ob-.
served truly, women live their lives
from young womanhood to the
finis. Every day is all-round,
complete and lived to the limit. No
day passes without its troll the
past,
So sad, so sweet,
The days that are no more.
No day passes without Its dreams for
other days to be And each passing
day, however, active in the tasks of
every every hour of every
passing a woman's life it
seems to m-, the heart life, the life of
sentiment, keeps step with the mind
life and the body life.
What a pity men cannot live this
threefold life What a pity for the
men But especially, what a pity for
the women How often must women
be hurt by the apparent hardness or
indifference or forgetful mates
Many times I have seen the pain in
the eyes of uncared-for women in the
presence of the rare and rarely-cared-
for women. And how a man robs
himself when he no longer shows how
much he really cares For men do
care. No man barter his wife
for honor and riches is compelled to
choose. He believes he can have her
and them. He believes she will en-
joy them too. He feels that she is
part of him, that they are one. Of
course they are not if he is going to
take it for granted.

big railroad contractors, to re-
cover alleged to be due

It will be remembered Messrs
Good, Hart were the first
sub-contractors and threw the first
dirt here on the new road. They
brought a lot of Italians with them,
but these soon tired of the Job and re-
turned north. Their part of the con-
tract was completed with labor ob-
in this locality.
The road wont in the hands of a.
receiver, and Messrs. J. G. White
Company at that time alleged they
could not pay their sub-contractors
because they had been unable to col-
from the road by virtue of the re-
and its inability to pay.
Whether Messrs. J. G. White Com-
ever received the entire amount
of their claim against the Norfolk
Southern, we are unable to say, but
Good, Hart Company claim they
did not settle with them and are there-
fore to recover.

Meeting Appoints Commutes.
Dr. William Black, Presbyterian
State will hold a series of
meetings in Jarvis Memorial
dist church here, beginning on Sun-
day, November 13th. Dr. Black is
one of the strongest preachers In the
State, and has done untold good in
his evangelistic work. On two

ville both attended by much success,
and our people are glad that he is
coming again. Surely there is no
town more in need of a real religious
revival than Greenville, and it is
hoped that such will be the result of
the coming meeting.
An indication of how all the
of the town, regardless of
nation, feel toward the coming of Dr.
Black, was shown in a meet-

afternoon. There was a large attend-

GENERAL MERCHANDISE
No More Cheap Cotton.
All remember the year when cotton
sold at cents and the general dis-
tress that resulted from it As the
day of 5-cent cotton passed, so has
the day of 10-cent cotton passed. We
lo not expect to see the day when cot-
on will get as low as ten cents. The
market is going to fluctuate between
twelve and twenty cents. The nearer
the latter figure it gets, the better it
will be for the country. High priced
cotton has come to stay. The bears
have lost their grip on the market
They cannot control It as they did in
former days, and the general
of production and manufacture
make high priced cotton a permanent
certainty. A good day has dawned
tor the cotton farmer and for the
South. Many of the farmers will be
to hold their cotton for twenty
cents and the chances are that they

Governor Makes the True Ex-

Not Price of Labor.
In reply to a letter of inquiry as to
what he said in a certain speech, Gov-
has written the follow-
letter, which amply explains it-
Mr. C. L. Harris. Mayodan, N. C. .
Dear of the 7th has
been received.
I did not state that the only hope
was for our laborers to be paid the
same wages as foreigners, but I con-
showed, I think, that the
tariff did not regulate wages Since
1607, long before we had a tariff
American wages were higher than
European wages. The workmen of
Australia higher wages than those
of North Carolina. The people of the
State of Washington having the same
that we have, get twice as much
wages; and the people of Alaska, with
the same tariff get four times as much
wages as our people. The sugar
planter In Louisiana, having high pro-
pays no more wages than the
Louisiana cotton grower, who is
protected. The protected mun in
pays more wages for the same
class of work than the unprotected
man, and pays no more for his wood,
flour, or any other article. Our so-
called protected laborers get no more
wages than our unprotected
masons, painters, etc. The
to pay high wages does not result
in high wages. The highly rich pay
no higher wages for the same labor
than the poor pay.
I argued that since our American
cotton mills are already producing
more cotton manufacturers than the
American people consume, and are
thereby compelled to sell millions of
dollars of them abroad in competition
with foreign goods, that we must
stop building new mills and
old ones or we must sell an in-
creasing quantity of manufactured
goods to foreign people; that in order
to build up a foreign trade In cotton
goods we must compete in foreign
markets with foreign goods; that to
do this our manufacturers, since they
are not in a monopoly, and therefore
cannot overcharge cur people to
make up for small profits or
losses in the foreign market, must
in position to make goods more
than do now.
Admitting that our mill owners are
up to date and the most intelligent in
the world, and that the American
laborers does more work in the same
number of hours than any other labor-
in the world and therefore
ed to more wages, and that our South-
cotton mills arc in the midst of
the cotton fields, yet the pro-
policy our mills cannot profit-
ably compete in the foreign market
with foreign manufacturers. In or-
to so compete, the tariff on mill
machinery and supplies should be re-
to a revenue basis, and thus en-
mills to be equipped and sup-
plied from in the thousand
dollars cheaper than at present
Mill owners, clerks, and other em-
should have the opportunity
of clothing
and In every way taking
of themselves and their families
free from the oppression of the pro-
policy This could be by
reducing the tariff on all articles to
a revenue basis.
The entire wages paid in American
cotton mills is less than per cent.
of the value of the manufactured
product. A per cent, tariff on the
value of manufactured products will
more than pay he difference in wage
in England and the United States, and
vet we have an average tax of per
cent on manufacturers on the tariff
list.
No Democrat favors free trade,
but every one favors a tariff for rev-
Free trade England pays
wages than any country in Eu-
rope, protected or otherwise, and he--
wages have increased per cent
since she adopted the free-trade pol-
icy. An English weaver gets
a week wages and for shorter hours.
Factory wages have been increasing
here and elsewhere for a hundred
years, and will continue to increase,
improved machinery enables labor to
earn more, and improved social con-
demand more wages.
The laborer should have right to
spend his wages without paying
to protection. Owing to the pro-
policy, the American laborer
is compelled to pay from to
for goods which the English laborer
buys at The Englishman
for a suit of woolen clothes
which costs the American The
latter's wife pays twice as much for
a pair of kid gloves. She pays
more for a hundred pounds of sugar
than the Englishman's wife. She pays
practically twice as much for her
blankets, flannels and shawls;
per cent more for woolen carpets and
hats. She pays more for her cutlery,
crockery, stove and for a majority of
the articles to clothe herself and
and equip her home.
The primary purpose of the
policy is to enable the protected
interests to charge the American
more for goods they would
otherwise have to pay.
If labor got the benefit the in-
creased prices the benefit would be
divided among millions instead of thou
sands, and the American conscience
would not be so deeply aroused over
protection's iniquity.
The American cotton mills already
producing more goods than the Amer-
consume, not being in a trust,

they were designed. At first the idea
of educating n farmer was laughable
to people who rejoiced In a lit-
learning. Even the farmer him-
self did not realize the advantage of a
college education to a man who must
make n living from the soil. It took n
good many years to bring people to re-
that college education is as val-
for a as for a doctor or
a lawyer. The main difference Is that
the law compels a man to get a col-
diploma before he starts to
medicine, while he may start
farming with nothing but n team

Even the present time there ore
many men both on the farm and in
the cities who doubt the value of a
college education for the farmer
Many a farm is squarely con-
fronted with the problem of choosing

from that standpoint they considered
that the chances were in favor of the
college man.
The boy who starts farming for him-
self without any education will run up
against a good many snags which the
college man will miss. He will learn
by experience many of the things
which the college man learns in
school. In doing so he will pay much
dearer for his knowledge. The old

Success on his own farm Is the first

a vast deal of respect for the man
who can do things. Their prejudice
against college farming is lost i ad-
for the results achieved by
the college farmer. If he advises or-

willing to be convinced. They may
even consent to bringing two or three
schools together and using the money

The benefits of sand-clay roads is
growing on the people of the county.
The first experimental two miles
jilt on the old plank road from the

in all who passed over it and
its excellence and the cheapness
with which it was constructed. That
d caused the people over on the
road to want one, and by
voluntary contributions they raised a
fund to tender to the county
to augment the work of the
convict force if placed on that road.
The tender was accepted, the con-
were put on that road and it
was improved with sand-clay for
miles.
The people on the river or Falk-
land road, seeing what their neigh-
over on the road leading towards
Farmville had likewise got
busy. They raised voluntary
among themselves to the
amount of several hundred dollars,
and tendered it to the commission-

force on that road. The force is
now at work there, and ere long there
will be several miles more of good
road.
While such steps on the part of the
people for local road improvement is
commendable, yet is is slow and
would require years and years to get
good roads over any considerable

way. Still every section of good road
that is built awakens that much more
interest, and ere long the people all

the determination to have good roads
as quickly as possible. Sand-clay
roads are the most available and the

We have never seen a farm

that the effect was not plain in
the increased refinement and com-

efficiency of the work done inside the

If, however, father and mother do
not read, and show neither desire
nor respect for the knowledge and
power which reading brings, the
boys and girls are not likely to form
the habit and thereby they miss the
greatest pleasure of life and a means
of acquiring knowledge which gives
power in the work of life.
We believe in reading for pleasure
and culture, but with reading, as
with teaching in our schools, we
believe that as great pleasure and
culture may come through reading

the National Bank of Greenville, held
on the 11th, a semi-annual dividend
of per cent, was declared to be
paid to the stockholders. This bunk

a total of that the stockholders
have received. In addition to this,
there is remaining in surplus and
divided profits This is an
excellent showing for the institution,
a credit to its officers and truly
to the stockholders.

Appeals to Young Men to Take Part
to Preserve Good Government by
Working In the Democratic Ranks.
Greenville, N. C, Oct.
J. the grand old man of
North Carolina, today issued this
clarion call to the young men of
North
I have always taken a deep and
abiding interest in the young men
and I have done what I could to pro-
mote their welfare. I have in pub-
and private life tried to make it
easy for the young men to become ed-
fitted and trained for the
ties of life and have in public ad-
dresses and private urged
them to make the most of their op-
I have associated much with the
young people and to this fact, I at-
tribute much of the continued active,
hopeful, happy life I lead.
Because of these things I do not
feel that I am violating the rules of
propriety in these words of advice
and encouragement to the young men
of my state.
I cannot and do not advise you to
become politicians and seekers after
office, but I do Insist that you owe a
duty to your State and to society
that you can only discharge by an
active participation in public affairs.
But how shall you discharge these
duties
In the first place you should set a
high standard of Public Morality and
Public Service and insist that those
who seek the favors of the Public
shall measure up to them. Set high
ideals and strive to live up to them
yourselves and teach your fellows by
precept and example to do likewise.
In public matters seek only the public
good and use only methods that are
honest and just. Avoid the man who
would prostitute the public service
to his private gain. Shun as you
would a deadly pestilence the party
that would debauch the young man-
hood of the State for party success
or that even directly or indirectly ad
measures which tend to pro-
duce results. Having fixed upon
high ideals in public life stand by
them and defend them.
But ours is a Government by Party.
Whether we would have it so or not
the fact is that party policies and
party practice largely determine the
policy and practice of the Govern-
So if you propose to take an
active part in public affairs in our
State it is necessary for you to ally
yourself with one or the other of tho
two political parties which seek con-
of the State Government. WHICH
SHALL IT BE
The principles of the Republican
party as a National Party are
mentally wrong. It teaches that the
power to levy taxes and collect rev-
for the support of the Govern-
carries with it the power to
distribute the burdens of supporting
the Government equally. Under the
guise of protecting certain
tries tho government may make laws
to enrich one class of men at the
expense of another class. Demo-
says that the burdens and
blessings of Government should be
distributed on all alike.
says not so, but that these
burdens and blessings should be dis-
according to the sweet Will
of the few who dictate the making of
the It is the privilege and the
duty of the young men to stand with
the patty which stands for equality
of opportunity in the race of life. I
warn you against the seductive
peal that is sometimes addressed to
you to join this or that party on the
plea that it may offer personal ad-
vantage. Public service and human
welfare are the considerations that
ought to weigh with a high-minded
manhood.
When the young men come to form
their party affiliations in this State
not one should have the slightest
difficulty in making his selection be-
tween the Democratic and
can parties. The party
has ever stood for high ideals and
has wrought results.
The Republican party has stood for
low Ideals when it was given
power has brought wreck and ruin
in its wake and shame and disgrace
upon the State.
I became a worker in the Demo-
party in the days
the war and I saw its victories
and achievements then. t assisted
in its re-organization after the war
and I have worked with it and for
It ever since. I have seen it go
down in defeat twice during these
long years from 1865 to 1910, and
oh what dark and damnable pages
were written in my State's History
during these two Republican
There cannot be one
among you who would not wipe out
blots upon the fair name of our dear
old State if you could That cannot
be done, but I will tell you what you
can do. You can unite with the party
that has twice redeemed the State
from unworthy rule
I have seen the Democratic party
take charge of the Government of
the State when lay prostrate
Republican oppressions, when
her people were poor and almost
hopeless, when the school houses
were closed and the teacher was
lent, when ruin and despair seemed
to brood over the land. And under
Democratic rule I hive seen the
dark clouds pass away and hope re-
vive. I have seen the school house
opened and the teacher abroad in the
land. I have seen good government
take the place of bad government and
law and order hold sway everywhere.
I have seen poverty way to pros-
and tho mourning of the
turned into joy. I have seen
the State rise from the wreck and
ruin wrought by Republican misrule
and take her place under Democratic
rule among the foremost States In
this great Union of States.
It is into the ranks of this great
and glorious party records are
so of achievement
that invite my dear young
to come and share with us in labors
triumphs in in

Our Greatest Weakness.
So a the public rural school

stead of at eight or nine, it is
not worth while to look further for
the greatest need of the South as re-

repeat that the greatest need of
Southern agriculture is education,
and by this we do not mean
in the and practice of
agriculture alone, but that
which creates a desire for
knowledge for the purpose of using
it in living a better

think and creates higher ideals and

Norfolk, Va., Oct. 1.2 The good re-

weeks, beginning and
closing the 29th.-
The general interest manifested by
the Middle West In the

this exhibit, even on a larger scale
at the coining show In
There is no more productive sol
In the South than pan be found along
the lines of the Norfolk
railroad, and when to this
is added equal climate, its great ad-
to the growing
ant crops and the nearness of this
great crop producing country to the
great markets the eastern cities
then the true worth of farm locations
in this territory becomes apparent.
As was demonstrated at the
show, the rich lands along
the Mississippi valley, even the very
lands of the Mississippi delta could
not produce products equal to that
shown by tho Norfolk Southern rail-
road. Corn, oats potatoes, apples,
alfalfa and many other valuable and
staple farm products from the Nor-
folk Southern territory were, in
superior to the exhibits
portions of the country, and not
only attracted the attention of inter-
Middle West farmers, but also
won the highest approbation of tho
entire country.
It is now proposed by the Norfolk
Southern management to take a
exhibit of all the products
representative of their territory to
the show, and thus con-
the work of showing to the
world the productive of
the coast country.
In addition to the display of these
products it has been arranged to
give lectures Illustrated
by lantern views showing many at-
tractive farming scones along the
road. A large number of photographs
have been secured showing the
try and its possibilities, by the
means of these photographs it is pro-
posed to throw on the lecture room
screen exact reproductions of plain
farming facts, as they exist In the
Carolina coast country.
Valuable results are sure to come
from this energetic plan of
by the Norfolk Southern railroad
company, and the country through
its participation in this Middle West
exposition, will surely bring the
try into greater prominence with the
people from other states, and will
help turn the tide of
into the attractive fields to be found
from Norfolk southward along the
lines of the Norfolk Southern rail-
road.
