A Change of There is a North Carolina and Mechanical College at Greensboro. This is for the colored race. There is a North Car- Agricultural and Mechanical College at is for the white race. A proposition will go Ix-fore the legislature for a change in the name of one or the other of these institutions. It is a good move The Chronicle would suggest that the Greensboro institution be allowed to retain its name. Its scope is more nearly confined to agriculture and mechanic arts. The scope of the Raleigh institution has been broadened and tends more to and electrical engineering, It is suggested that name be changed to the North Carolina Institute Agriculture and Engineering. That would come nearer covering the case than the old Good Roads. Here are some facts we commend to our farmer friends- Bad road-making costs us directly 40.000,000 a Indirectly through unnecessary cost of transportation, bad road making costs us a year. t costs Die American farmer two or three as much to haul his truck to market as it does the farmer of Europe, where roads are good. In France the highways carry one and a third limes as much freight as do the railroads. In America it is just the other way. The railroads carry three times as much produce as do the public roads. Farmers, it is for you to become advocates of what will benefit you. Be persistent advocates of good And speak to your neighbors about he matter. The above suggestions and is given by the Winston Sen-. The great need of our farmers today is better roads, and the who is opposed to good roads, even at any cost, is simply standing in his own Post. Two Bills. It seems that there are two bills for the regulation of land titles the Torrens system, now in the committee, at Raleigh. One of these is that fathered by Mr. Cotten and endorsed by the bankers and Farm- Union. The other is a bill ad- by the lawyers. We are not familiar with the provisions of the bill, but it is reasonable to suppose that it is not in harmony with the Cotten bill. Sentiment all over the state is unanimous for the Torrens system. The legislator who may be seeking popularity would find it thrust upon were he to take up this measure and put it through. That this popular movement has not yet developed a vigorous champion is a matter for surprise. the meantime, the public would no doubt be pleased to have some light on the main points of these two bills. It would be particularly interesting to learn what the lawyers are driving at. Charlotte Observer. FOR SALE AT A good, gentle, well-broke drive horses.

Enough people gathered in the city hall afternoon, to fill the room at tho meeting called for opposed to tho bill pending in the legislature to sub- to the voters of town- ship the question of issuing bonds in an amount not exceeding to build good roads in tho township. Among present were also ad- of tho bill, but these took no In the proceedings -as it was a meeting called by opponents for action against the measure. The meeting organized by the of Dr. E. A. as chair- man and Mr. Julius Brown as sec- A statement was made by Mr. A. L. Blow that he thought if petitions containing tho signatures of a ma- of the voters of the township were sent to our representatives in the legislature the pending bill would not be passed. Mr. W. F. Evans stated that had been and were being cir- for signatures. He read one of these petitions, following it with a speech against the bill that had been sent to the legislature, in which ho the action of those who had prepared the bill, and also told why this meeting was called to op- pose It. Col. Harry Skinner followed in a speech against the bill, attacking it vigorously and impugning the. mo- of those who fathered it. He offered a motion that the sense of tho meeting be taken on the pend- bill. Mr. L. also spoke against the bill, saying he did so in justice to himself, as having been named as one of the road trustees in the bill sent to the legislature his position might be misunderstood. Following up the suggestion of Col. Skinner for taking sense of the meet- Mr. W, F. Evans offered the fol- lowing resolution, which was adopt- ed, only those favoring it We, a body of the citizenship of Greenville township, county, in meeting deeming it wise and within the of a free people lo meet and matters of Importance concerning ourselves, and our prosperity, and, feeling that upon question of legislation and government the entire voice of the people affected by such legislation Should be heard, and that no small minority should he allowed to over- rule or rule the majority, and reversion to the time honored principles of our constitution and theories of government to be health- l do all elections ought to be the prime object of the ballot tho determination of the desires, of the people all Mow- ed to vote, that hindrances and blocks placed to retard a expression of the electorate is wrong and contrary to the spirit of a free people and that frequent and registrations as a to vote constitutes an of- against our views as above ex- pressed. That while, as provided in our constitution, elections should be in order that the wishes of the people may be known, yet such el- should be regular and or- both as to time and measures. We acquiesce in the occasional for special elections by enactment to decide a given proposition, and we assert that the will of the people thereupon ex- pressed at the ballot box should abide the issue; but we recognize that a continual or automatic ref- to the electorate of any given measure can make that measure to the sinking confidence of an outraged people, and we denounce as tyrannical and unjust any law which places the ballot box at the and call of any man or set of men. We believe that all measures or which are to be enacted as any special community or portion of the State should be in each and every part in conformity with the desires and wishes of a majority of that people to be affected and that such proposed legislation should not be cloaked or hidden, but should be openly espoused and and an opportunity be given for the free expression of opinion thereon, and that our representatives in the should refrain from passing laws of a local nature framed without the knowledge of the whole people and fathered by a small of the community. Believing that the bill now pend- in the general assembly in re- to the roads of Greenville town- ship, and providing for a vote on the issuance of bonds for the purpose of road building, was in its framing, and is now in its form and in conflict and contrary to the principles above there- fore, be it First, That we call up- on our representatives in the general assembly not to fasten upon this bill as above referred to, for it is the sense of that a majority of the citizens of the township are opposed to a bond issue, and that under the provisions of the said bill undue authority and advantage is given to those who desire the enact- of the proposed law. Second, That for the defeat of said bill and its vicious and obnoxious provisions we pledge to each other our time, our labor, and our Third, That we appoint a township committee, consisting of ten, to fight the proposed bill In the legislature and at the election, if the same is called. The appointment of the committee of ten as stated in the resolution, was deferred by the chairman, the names to be announced later, and the meeting adjourned.

Tho Wilson county and city officials received notice to be on the lookout for a gang of who had bro- ken into stores in the towns of Fay- and Dunn. At once, when it was learned that the desperadoes had arrived in Wilson, county and city officials, jointly, began to devise ways and means to apprehend the rascals. Officer Wynne was the first to get a glimpse of them going in the of a near-beer joint, known as the on South Golds- street, about half a mile from the court house. He communicated his find to Chief Glover and Deputy Mumford, and these three, with Po- lice Officer Wynne soon started on tho trail, and learned while near the Norfolk Southern depot that two of the gang had just gone into the home of a woman near the depot. Quickly the house was surrounded, Officers Warren and Wynne guarding the back way while Deputy Mumford and Glover entered the front way.

Johnston county has sent a bill to the legislature asking that the of issuing bonds in the sum of to build good roads in the county, be submitted to a vote of the people.

The sen- tor building roads through the question of issuing of bond issues is growing in various parts of the State. ENFORCE THE ROAD LAW. J second matter August 1910, I he post at North Carolina, under act of March FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 1911, OUR WEEKLY EDITION. the Change in name and form of weekly Reflector, we announced at the time that it was our purpose to make an agricultural of merit for the formers of this section. We have not been able to make the feature us prominent as we should like to have done, but we are gradually interesting practical farm- in work and during the pres- year, it is our intention to pub- many articles of worth to the farmers of this section. We have also been fortunate in securing a lady of force as a writer, Who, from inheritance and environ- is especially qualified to con- duct our home department. We pub- the installment of these articles this Week, and the readers Of The Carolina Homo and Farm, and Eastern Reflector are promised both entertainment and information in the home department. The lady is well known In Pitt and adjoining ties. For many years she was an excellent teacher, and since her own home, has put into practical application the principles Of her writings and teachings. There are a great many farmers In the who would add very materially to the well being of their follow farmers by the Interchange of ideas The Carolina Home and Farm and Eastern Reflector. There is hardly a farmer in the county who could not say something that would be of benefit to his neigh- if would, take a few moments and write out his Ideas just as lie and practices them himself. The . of paper arc open, and . is every I. m . to i a his in Ills own way a pet tabling to the and broad Held of In his speech Saturday in the anti bonds for good roads tweeting. Col. Skinner said that instead of issuing bonds to build the roads as proposed, the present road laws ought to be enforced We cannot imagine anything that would make more advocates of a proposition to build good roads by a bond issue than to strictly and rigidly enforce the present road law. That law pro- that every man in the county of road working age shall work on the roads six days in every year, or hire a hand to do the six days work for him. Putting this labor at the low estimate of per day, would make per year every man liable under the law would contribute to the roads, in addition to his having to pay cents road tax on each valuation of his property. The per year, to say nothing of the cents tax, is more than a large ma- of the tax payers would have to pay in interest on a bond issue sufficient to build the roads, and for maintaining the roads after they are built. To build the roads by a bond issue the people would be relieved of this six days work every year. in one respect Col. Skinner is right. The road law ought to be enforced if it is going to a law, yet there is no law on the books more grossly violated. There should be some system of inspection by which every road supervisor and overseer should be required to com- ply strictly with his duty, and every man of road working age should be made to furnish his six days work every year as the law directs. The law in that respect is plain enough to be understood, but as said before, just enforce it strictly, and that is what should be done or it is a use- less law, and you will soon hear the people advocating some other of building and maintaining the public roads. When a man puts his property in his wife's name to his wife and against those he owes, he should ask himself if he is not robbing else's wife and by the transaction. He may ease his conscience and get long through this world with, record, but Scriptures are true, will find h standing against him when ho the final. LET THE PEOPLE DECIDE. There is no fairer nor satisfactory way of settling a public question than by submitting it to a vote of the people. In this way bet- than any other every man can for himself express his own views according to the dictates of his own conscience. The man who is afraid to trust the electorate for a decision, is either right in his own views or has little faith in his fellow man. Just now the question of issuing bonds for the good roads is receiving much attention from the people of Greenville township, and a bill, purport of which is to submit the question to a vote of the people of the township, has been sent to the general assembly. Advocates of the measure held a meeting two weeks ago to consider the nature of the bill best suited to the purpose, and discussing the matter thoroughly adopted the bill that has since been published and sent to the legislature. Those opposed to the measure have likewise held a meet- and thoroughly thrashed over their side of the question and adopt- ed a resolution against it. Of course there are two sides to every question, and all people are not expected to look at it alike. Some take one view and some an- other, and sometime they let their spirit of argument get the better of their judgment. But when a comes to all the people for de- it should be settled in accord- with the will of the majority. If a majority of the people want to build roads in the township through the means of a bond issue, they can so express themselves by their votes, while if a majority are opposed to this, they can likewise express it by their votes, and that decides the mat- Therefore we can see no harm in the people being allowed to vote on this matter and settle it for them- selves. If the people want the bill to become a law they can adopt it, if they do not want it to become a law they can reject it. TWO SIDES TO THE QUESTION. The question of good roads is one that belongs to the people, and they should settle it among ac- cording to the will of the majority. While the editor of The Reflector has his own views as to good roads and the method of building them, at the same time he recognizes that other people also have a right to their opinion, and for that reason the paper Is at all times open to the dis- of both sides, as it is on all questions that belong to the people, To all great Questions arc two sides, and good roads is no ex- The advocates Of good roads In Greenville township have at heart the desire to promote that which Is or the good, and they want to see their township second to none is North. They the great need for good roads and that nothing will more rapidly advance the prosperity of the people. They realize also that the good roads are not going to be had under the old system of a 15-cents road tax, the effects of which is lost as fast as it is expended. For that reason they favor using this same cents tax for carrying a bond issue sufficient to build the roads and provide a sinking fund to pay the bonds, by which means the township can have good loads without any more cost the people than they are paying bad roads. It is a fair and square proposition, and one which the people should have the privilege of expressing themselves on by their IT TO THE PEOPLE. THE PEOPLE'S MONEY. If the advocates of good roads had sent a bill to the legislature which provided by enactment the issuance of in bonds for without submitting the measure to a vote of people, there might be good grounds to circulate petitions asking our representatives to hold up the passage of the bill. But since it is provided that the people shall vote on the proposition before it becomes effective, it looks like those who are opposing it are placing themselves in the position that the advocates of the bill would have been in had they asked for its passage without sub- it to the voters of the town- ship. In other words, the opponents of the bill are trying to stifle it the legislature without giving the people an opportunity to express themselves at the ballot box. Petitions are not true of the will of the people when a man signs them and does not the other side of the prop- The only true way to the will of the people Is to sub- the question and allow them to vote, without let or hindrance on the part of anybody. The Reflector is in favor of good roads because of the benefit they will bring and the belief that no com- township or county, could make a better investment. We ad- Issuing bonds to build good roads because of a belief that the burden will be lighter upon the than by direct taxation. Another advantage of issuing bonds is that the roads can be built quickly and In time be of benefit to the pres- generation, while under the sys- of direct taxation it will require years and years to get good roads If they could ever come at all in that way. Good roads are the need, and they arc worth the cost. It is quite a slam on Kansas that only eight members of the State- Senate were to repeat the Lord's prayer, Put to the same test there are plenty of men who would fall No one should question the right of any mm to be opposed to issuing bonds for good roads if he wants to. It is a right every man has to think and act for himself At the same time it is not amiss to consider if opposition to public improvements is prompted by personal or selfish motives, ; if men are always con- in their attitude toward spending the people's money. There were men opposed to issuing bonds to establish electric lights and works in Greenville; there were some opposed to bonds to establish East Carolina Training School; there were some opposed to bonds for building the iron bridges at Greenville and Grifton; there were some opposed to changing the county officers from a fee system to a salary basis to save the county thousand.- of dollars annually; there were some opposed to bonds for building the new court house and new Jail; and there are some op- posed to the proposition to issue bonds for good roads. As said at the outset, they have a right to their opinions, nobody questions that, but it be said that this was free from personal motives and the opponents always consist- We heard a man say that three- fourths of the land of Pitt county is undeveloped, that is it is not under cultivation, hence is producing If that is so, it means that Pitt county has land enough to easily support four times the present have these people and make them producers would multiply four times the wealth of the county.

For the past few years, especially since something of the value of cotton seed meal and hulls as feed has become generally recognized, cattle growing has been on the increase on the farms of this section and more and more farmers are breeding pure-bred cattle. As a natural result, the farmers who are raising cattle are the owners of the most productive farms, the manure from cow stables being the best manure procurable anywhere The fattening of cattle for the market, however, is some- thing comparatively new here and is attracting not a attention.

mm Rome and and The Eastern Good Roads and Incomes. In the educational campaign which Is being conducted In favor of good roads the very freest discus- of ways and means of attaining the desired end should invited. The Issue of for road purposes by any particular county is a subject which should be discussed with ref- to local circumstances and Dot the lines of glittering gen- and opponents of such Issues are rendering import- ant public service when they give their the results of careful observation sound reasoning. In this connection an Interesting com- appeared recently In he from the pen of a citizen who to endorse the plan of the rural letter association, which contemplates the division of the road Into short sec- to be let to responsible bidders to maintain In first-class condition. The correspondent this plan to that which calls for that such oversight would result in better roads and vastly less disturbance labor. Id support of this contention It is argued that increased value of farm lands may be a burden rather than an assistance to the agricultural proprietor. to the Increased valuation of land, taxes are high enough and if the value Is doubled will not the tax be doubled If a farm Is now valued at and the value Is increased to will not the owner have to pay tax on 92.000 Will the doubling of the valuation increase the production any Such an increase in valuation will increase taxes but not This argument overlooks tho fact that income may be increased by a diminution of expenses as well as by actual Increase in the crops. Pushed to logical extreme it would offer a barrier to all improvements which might increase taxable values The crops raised upon the farm may not greatly in site whether its money or but cost of and cost mar- will Influence net income quite as materially as the number of bushels raised. With modern high- ways, we believe that such an In- crease in taxable values would result In benefit to the farmer rather than the contrary. The initial cost of the would lowered by the renter with which his traveling would be done. His not profit from its sales would be en- by the lessening of the ex- of Ob- server. Treason to One's Conscience. Here is something from tho Dally News that is well worth pondering heard several members of the legislature say they were opposed to the income tax amendment; but they voted for it because it was the party program. Partisanship fits too tight it prevents a man doing what he believes is honest and Rather a serious charge made by our contemporary, and its deductions are also rather serious. We know of the former, but, in our . our friend is unequivocally right i the latter. We believe in n or a congressman or any Other standing by his pledges, and standing-up for his party, but we can't conceive of any ma., feeling right in his own mind In voting for some- measure he does riot right. not apply to the man who makes prom- j or who stands on a platform, which has explicit planks relative to different matters because a man who i would make such promises and stand on such a platform when he thinks I another way would vote anyway be Without regard to light and . g ad with no attention to his although his conscience must prick him sorely in the days that follow. But it does apply to any one who views new matters, not explicitly specified before hand, In a light. There are many mat that before legislatures and before congress upon which lines are tightly drawn, merely be- cause of antagonism, and when such Is done the interest of the people suffers. Whatever promises Dem- legislators made to their con- whatever the Democratic platform stands for Democratic leg- should try to fulfill, and the same applies to Republican but on other there are numerous ones capital should not tried for. What all Tar Heel should desire, without regard to drawing party lines, should be the advancement of the Old North Dispatch. RAINY DAYS How Senators Are Actually Made. There those who fall back on tho constitution provision de- that tho plan devised by the founders of tho government la still good enough. But they forget the factor choose to ignore our present way of electing senators is grotesquely different from that which tho constitution prescribes and in- tends. The constitution intends, and moans to prescribe, that the entire legislature, every member of It, shall take part In the actual choice of a United States senator. As a matter of fact, under the existing system, a senator Is usu- ally not chosen by the legislature In any true sense He Is by the party caucus of the party which bar; a majority of the of the c-f the legislature on Joint ballot. Is regarded, under the present system, as virtually for legislators elected In the usual way on a party ticket to en- the party caucus and to abide by the result. Thus, Is the legislature has members, of whom are Democrats are Republicans, it Is the almost Invariable of strict party men that the majority choice of the Democratic caucus ought to be promptly accepted by the entire Under this sys- every one of the Republican must be thrown away. They will be expanded upon a compliment- vote for some Republican who cannot by any chance elected. If the Democratic caucus should be closely divided between two one representing, as is so frequently the case, the private choice of the machine or boss, and the other representing a decent pub- opinion and some regard for the traditions of Is nevertheless the doctrine of the man that If the machine candidate can be forced through the caucus by a majority of a single vote, every man who has gone into the caucus must accept the result and the man must be elected in the face of an outraged public opinion.

Editor The writer hap hesitated to mix with the Reflector on a question which seems to he pretty well fixed with the sentiment of its editorial columns, well knowing that it is bad policy to try to shoot an assailant with his own gun, but it seems to me that the position of the bond is soaring into such atmosphere that something ought to be done to call their attention to a few facts before they melt their wax in the rays of the evening sun. The writer also recognizes that an argument with a newspaper is not unlike one with a woman, and there- fore is prepared to have the paper say the last word. It sounds somewhat strange to hear the advocates of the bond bill accusing who it of be- afraid of the ally when in the meeting that brought forth the bill and a motion woo made to defer the matter until the general public could apprised of the step proposed, those who dad- died the bill voted the motion down, and that, too, in face of the fact that forty-eight hours notice had been given of the meeting and half of that time extended over a Sun- day. On the other hand when those who opposed the measure called a meeting, there assembled in the town hall in response thereto about the largest crowd exclusively of white people that has ever assembled therein since it was built, and no one seemed to be afraid of the gathered there. In the light of all this, who is it that is afraid of the people How really amusing it is to look at the pious attitude of the bond bill advocates, after they have loaded the with paper wads for the use of the people and the other with lead which they propose to with, parading before the camp of the Israelites and loudly them to battle In order to have a fair Mr. Editor, why not give both sides the same weapons Why should a new registration be required for the el- proposed, when it has been so short a time the general el- Men who voted then, are qualified now.

Popular Young Man Succumbs After Brave Battle. SUGGESTIONS ON CORN WORK The death at o'clock this morn- of William Wallace Moore at the home of his sister, Mrs. J. D. Murphy , avenue came as a shock to a large circle of friends in Ashe- ville. Mr. Moore had been in failing health for the past several years and while some of his intimate friends re- that he was a very sick man others were not aware that his was so critical Mr. Moore came to Asheville from eastern North Car- nearly years ago. He was pointed a clerk in the Asheville post- office by former Postmaster J. P. Kerr in 1893, and had been in the service here continuously for almost years. At the time of his death Mr. Moore was superintendent of city carriers and city distributors. Moore, as he was familiarly known among a large circle of friends, was a fine fellow. He was a gentle- man in every sense of the word; a friend, one might say, to everyone. His was a gentle nature. He was free from malice or hatred and ever de- lighted to do a friend a service. In June, 1908, when the great struggle for the Democratic nomination for governor of North Carolina between Mr. Craig and Mr. Kitchin was on at Charlotte, Mr. Moore over-exerted himself in the cause of Mr. Craig. He became enthusiastic, as almost every- body else did at that time, and his vocal organs practically gave way. For months and months after the con- Mr. Moore could not speak above a whisper. In fact, he never entirely regained his voice. The strain during those convention days evidently weakened his constitution and at times since then Mr. Moore found it necessary to cease work for days at a time. However, he was on duty not so long ago, as usual, was cheerful and hopeful. Mr. Moore was born March 1872, and was therefore almost years of He was a staunch and sterling Democrat.

Make no haste to be rich if you would prosper, Editor I read in the Daily Reflector recent- a call from Prof. W. H. to all the boys, members of the corn club of 1910, and those who desire to become members in 1911, to a meet- to be held in Greenville on 18th. I wish to add to that call an invitation to the fathers of the boys. We want to give all the to the boys that we can, for the boys of today are to be the men of tomorrow. As agriculture is the of our future prosperity, it i. essential that we do all we to educate our boys along that line The great American grain food for men and stock is corn, and by using good methods in preparing and our lands, we can very easily make all the corn we need on our farms. I have been in the ion work in this county two years, and my observation and experience has taught me that we can make bushels of corn where we are now making bushels. I had numbers of men on my work last year who made bushels, and some as high as bushels on high land. There are that are es- to good Drainage. Where land is full of water it shuts out the sun and air, and no plant can grow in cold, wet seed bed. Deep Breaking. When we break to or inches we may expect a or inch crop. Experiments have shown that corn sends some of its roots or feet deep where the soil is porous. in case of ex- rains the water sinks below the roots of the plants, and in dry seasons allows the roots to go down and get moisture. Humus. Without humus we can never get the results our lands are capable of producing. It is especially necessary to have humus in our soil to get the best results from fertilizers. I believe the farmers of our county use every year thousands of dollars worth of fertilizers that does them practically no good, be- cause of using it intelligently. Right here I want to say we should study the fertilizer problem more, and the practical application of to the soil. Last, but not least, the selection of good seed. I have men on my work in this county who in paying close attention to the selection of their seed have improved their corn from an ordinary one-eared variety to a very good two-eared variety. We should always select our seed corn from the field, for then we can get the right type of ear from the right type of stalk. When we select our corn from the barn, we do not know it grew on a one-eared stalk or a two-eared stalk. In my work I have gotten the best results in every in- stance where the prolific corn was planted. We will have with us the Mr. C. R. Hudson, the head of the demon- work in this State and Mr. I. O. the head of the corn club work. We desire that the boys and will bring with them some com, and the gentlemen above men- will go over the exhibits and help them select the best ears for planting.
