Walter R. Henry's statement has appeared in print. It was given to the public in Saturday's Charlotte Observer and is addressed as a per- letter to T. S. Rollins, chairman of the republican executive committee of the stale. As was ex- the statement is something lengthy and interesting. It clearly sets forth side of the affair and shows conclusively, that that while he was regarded by bank- as one of the best bank examiners in he was removed from to make room for a pet of a higher official, which has become a fad in Washington political circles Col. Henry's political record of shift- ins from party to party in search of pie does not entitle him to much sympathy, but in this case we can but feel sorry for him in the wrong that has been done him. However, justice and honor are but little es- teemed in the ranks of republican- ism. Mr. H. E. C. Bryant, writing to the Charlotte Observer, says the at the Greensboro fail a curse and fl disgrace to a civilized lie adds our fairs run and pay ex- without such a disreputable God help Just waft until the returns are in from the fair this week, and the re- port will be equally bad, if the truth is told. Fairs with their midways and gambling have become hot-beds of corruption and infamy, and it is time the better people were crying them down. It is a shame that in Carolina the people's money is for such a thing as they pull off in under the name of an agricultural fair. Gray hair was falling out and gray very fast.

The amounts assessed at present are mere bagatelles, do not teach the boozer a lesson, if people will go to hell via the rum route we ought to make the read as rough for them as possible.

Let's make it inter- for the man who makes it in- for the police. all believe that juries are sometimes fixed, but why is it that the defense is always allowed to do the ask the Durham Herald. Because the state hasn't any money. This is the best time of year to advertise, if there is any best time, and the merchant who neglects it now loses a golden opportunity. From now until after the holidays more money will be spent for house- hold and personal necessities and holiday luxuries than in twice the length of time in any other portion of the year. The man who goes after business with a bright, truth- convincing ad is sure to do the most business, and to win customers who will stick by him through life. You've got to show people that you are anxious for their trade and appreciate it. It is a century-old business method to sit down and wait, hoping that you will get a part of the customers who come to town or come down town. You've to bring them to town and to your got to show them wherein it is to their advantage to deal with you. You can't go to everybody in can't write letters to them all. There is only one sure way to get value for money expended, and that is to advertise regularly, persistent- sensibly in some good, newspaper covering the field which it is possible for you to from. Don't go about it in a slip- shod, careless, hurried way. That is one of the quickest ways of get- ting rid of good money. Put as much business thought in your preparations for advertising as you do in baying goods, and you will reap a profit in proportion. In the first place, can you write an advertisement that will draw people m your store If your . along this line has been neglected, you will save time, pa- and money by calling in some one who has made ad-writing a study, who can any article in your store in attractive man- Give the ad man the points, and he will do the rest. That's what he is alive for. But don't slop there. Watch opportunities and conditions, especially weather Get up bargains in season- able things, and make them draw- cards. How many merchants in this town wore wise enough to anticipate the bad weather of the past week by making special displays and offerings of rubber shoes, boots, coats, and other things that the weather and season demands Not fact we do not recall one merchant in Greenville who looked ahead to the above extent. Such opportunities are sprinkled plentifully all through the year.

Wonder if it occurred to Judge Peebles and the Wake county jury that they might have ordered poor Skinner dug up and hung for ac- costing Mr. Haywood and getting in the way of his bullets. Dewey is not as great a criminal as the two murderers recently ac- in the Carolinas, but if he should ever come to trial what would be done to him would be a plenty.
