At the present time the exposition management finds It- self with more than two millions of dollars cash on hand with which to build Its exposition, now nearly one- half completed.

Baker had been living here for a week or more with this woman, the two having rooms at the home of Georgia James, and passing them selves off as husband and wife. The strange part of the story, however, lies in the fact that though they claim- ed to be man and wife they took their meals at separate boarding houses.

The queer and uncalled for ac- and movements of the two aroused the suspicion of several people, and the county officers were told of what was going on.

Sixth long blow, six short blows. Seventh long blow, seven short blows. Eighth long blow, eight short Ninth long blow nine short blows.

In the night time, there will not be so many people on the go. but rays of light that will be shot up in- to the sky by the fire will serve even better to direct tho firemen to scene of the danger, and in this way they may make better time than they could under the old system.

FRIDAY, AUGUST 1913 AUTOMOBILE SPEEDING. The greatest menace attendant up- on the growing popularity of the as a means of business luxury is the controlling the speed at which these vehicles shall travel It seems that when of the ma- chines falls victim to the will of a speed maniac, there Is no limit to the rate at which he will travel. Many of cars often get over- enthused, and have in their an insatiable desire to outdistance the other fellow, and see If they cannot lead all others. This often leads to accidents, sometimes serious ones and sometimes not altogether so bad. A desire to get ahead of ions seems to be responsible for what came very near being a fatal accident near Burlington the other day when a party of good roads enthusiasts went out to meet the party on their trip over the Central High- way. One man, apparently a good driver, lost control of his machine and ran into a pole by the side of THE WAR. Great conflicts In history are usual- started from a desire of some pow- to add to its prowess, its glory, or its fame. In the Balkan war this Is true. It seems to be a mighty scramble between an alignment of petty governments to wrest from key a part her territory. For near- two years the peace of these little nations has been disturbed, and their country has been overrun and bur by war, which, as General Sher- man said, is worse than hell. Whatever has been the success of this great might we be allowed to ask what has been What has it all amounted to In the long run And has either side gained anything of which It might be proud Turkey has been defeat- ed, but, characteristic of the spirit of the Indomitable he has risen from his defeats, and is again the menace and worry of southern Europe.

But is who are most anxious for the gov- to intervene, most of them, would hide cellar a week If Uncle Sam were to call for and it looked like they would be summoned to service. Those who advise tho nation not to intervene are, for the most part, we believe tho thinking men of the country, and the men who count for the most. They realize that It would mean the loss of millions of dollars, and no one knows how many lives of soldiers. We do not know, and we believe that the government officials themselves are undecided as to what they will do. but no action should be taken until the matter has been en thorough consideration. --------o Now that we have for good In township, let's go after Wilson county and these other townships and them help us get that branch of the High- way. shh, no one said anything about more CARING FOB THE SICK. In the past there have been In- stances where movements started for the benefit and uplift of mankind have ended In failure because of the personal ambition of a few men who ware connected with them. Great enterprises have gone to the wall for no more reasons than these, and It Is a discredit to the man who cause such failures. Greenville has for a long time been in need of a modern, up-to-date hos- for caring for her sick, but no one has ever started a movement in that direction that was really worth the time and energy that were spent on it. In some towns that could be mentioned hospitals have been built and equipped only to be retarded la their service or ruined altogether the selfish ambitions of physicians who wanted to be the whole chow, and control the whole thing. It seems that some people in Greenville fear that such might happen here were a hospital to be established in this town. Of course, this among other things, should considered when the matter Is taken up in earnest, but we have more faith in the doctors here than to believe that anything very serious would result. The greatest drawback to the es- a hospital In this town seems to be a lack of faith in the enterprise on the part of the people. It is true that such an would mean tho outlay of fifty thousand dollars or more, but we cannot but believe that If there are enough people in this town to warrant the establishment of a hos- that It would almost support Itself. But no man need think going Into the proposition with the Intent of making a fortune, for are few hospitals in the nation whoso owners have made fortunes on them. If some public-spirited citizen of the town wants to do something for his people, and If he wants to make fur his name a place in history, then he can very easily do It by endow- a hospital for this town. North Carolina points with pride to the great work that Is now being done by the Watts hospital in the city of Durham. That Institution was es- for the people of that city and given to them at a cost of be- tween three and four hundred thous- and dollars, and one of the finest apartment houses in the state was Completed only a few months ago in Durham and turned over to the hos- as a source of revenue for its support. That is philanthropy that Is appreciated by the common and philanthropy that Is noted by a higher authority than human beings. What man in this town, he need not be a millionaire, will give enough money to establish a hospital for the people of his town and this three Himself, his hungry neighbor, and SETTLING THE CASE. It is now reported that the of the railroads and the corporation commission held a meet- in Raleigh during the latter part of last week, at which time It Is said that all appearances showed that an agreement had been reached In the freight rate discrimination matter. It Is reported that the agreement Is such that It might even be accepted by the governor and the legislative committee. If an agreement has been reached that will comply with the demands of the people of tho state and that will not be discrimination, but will be on an equal basis with the rates charged Virginia then we say let's accept it, and end all of this very unpleasant spat with the railroads. However, we trust and be- that the governor and his com- together with the corporation commission, have at heart the inter- of the shippers and manufacturers of the state, that they will not take from the railroads anything that they believe to be or in any way.

Leaving Greenville early on Thurs- day morning, the party of eight men from this town went to and stored their cars In garages, and took the train for Morehead City. On their return trip, they came to secured their cars, and again made the last lap of the tour by way of the automobile. Those who were In attendance up- on the meeting were very much pressed with what they saw and heard. Mr. Joseph Hyde Pratt, who is state secretary of the North Caro- Good Roads Association, present, and made one of the finest speeches that was heard during the entire meeting. Other speeches were by Congressman John H. Small, cf this district, and by the chief en- of the road. Mr. speech was characteristic of the man, and v us one that showed that he Is very much Interested In the progress of the cause of good roads in this state. That part of the big convention, however, which most interested the people was the discussion of the Central Highway, and the pros- for bringing It, or at least a branch of It, through this town. The officers of the association were very much In favor of giving this sec- j of the state a branch of the road, and It is now up to the people of Wilson and Pitt counties If they want to get on It. The route the pro- j posed branch line would come out; of Raleigh by way of Wilson, Farm- j Greenville and on through; to New Bern, where It would connect with the main line. It will be Impossible for this sec-j to secure the main line, but this can be had if the people will go to work and pull for It. Promises were received from the of the good roads association that If the people of this county would arrange for dates and speak- places they would come through the section in automobiles and would arrange for speakings and big lies In the Interest of the movement. That part of the branch line lies In Wake county Is practically Completed, and but very little work, If any, would have to be done there. The roads In Wilson county are also all right, for the most part, and could be put into first class condition with but a little work. township has just issued In good roads bond to build her share of the line, and the greater part of what remains to be done lies between the hounds of Greenville township the Wilson county line. If the people of this section get sufficiently interested in the branch the highway to warrant the officials of the association In routing the line through this section, It will be a great advertisement for this section of the, state. People through the country over the highway would, In all likelihood, go the route by way of, Goldsboro and and would turn through Greenville and Wilson. Photographs and snapshots of the. road would be published In all of the good roads journals of the and in that way the county would re- a great deal of free advertising. Those Interested In the project say that It means much for this part of the state, and that Greenville and Pitt county will be the gainers If some steps arc taken looking toward bring- the branch line through this county.
