A GOOD SHIPPING PORT
A SYNDICATE THINKS 1T CAN
REALIZE THIS DREAM.
WOULD BE A GREAT THING FOR TIE STATE
Railroads that are Run TO Build up Ports Out

Morehead City. n c., June 14.-Edi-
of Mr.. W. j. Edwards and Mr.. ID. T..
McIver, representing the syndicate de-
string to purchase and extend the AT
lantic and North Carolina Railroad has
revived the dream of every public
spirited North Carolinian for an hundred
years. There DIS no doubt that if the
dream of Governor Morehead had been
realized. North Carolina would have
been much more prosperous and would
have boosted n great city at this place
that would have been blessing TO
every interest of the State. Because it
was not carried out, North Carolina for
all the years of the past has worked
to build up great towns in other States,
doing little to build up n great North
Carolina port Of entry.
The ideal of the fathers from Muir
phey to Morehead. the two most far
seeing practical statesmen the State has
produced. was that North Carolina Rail-
roads ought TO run from the mountains
to the seashore wholly within the State
ard that the chief railroad system
should connect Morehead City in Car
teret county with Murphey in Cherokee
county, and that these two towns, named
for the States two most practical states
men. should he the Eastern and Western
terminus respectively Of a railroad sys-
TEN that should bless every section of
tie State. Their plans locked to North
Carolina for North Carolinians. and not
to building up a great seaport in Nir
ginia.
If Morehead and Muaphey could come
back again to the old State ana So,
how all that they planned has been frus-
trated. how instead of the great rail
reads built by the State being used to
build up great SEAPORT here they have
been made feeders for cities to the
North of lis. they would be glad enough
to again retire to the shades of the bet
ter land. mournful because plans they
matured and struggled to put on foot
not only failed. but actually We're used
to build UP Virginia cities AT the ex-
pense of North Carolina. The vision
that Morehead saw was one that was
worthy of great North Carohnian that
loved his State and wanted it TO become
great. powerful, rich and independent.
Today all the big railroads run
through North Carolina. They are
owned by residents at other States, their
chief termin are in other States, and
naturally they do more to build up Nor
folk than any North Carolina city.
am not writing any criticism about it.
/ am not now considering whether they
are not best serving the interest of their
stockholders. | am merely regreting
that circumstances have been SO strapped

IMPORTANT TO MOTHERS.

The manufacturers of Castoria have
been compelled to spend hundreds OF
thousands of dollars to familiarize the
public with the signature of Chas. IL.
Fletcher. This has been necessitated by
reason Of pirates counterfeting the Cas-
toria trade mark. This counterfeiting is
a crime not only against the proprietors
of Castoria. but against the growing gen
Grafton. All persons should be careful
to see that Castoria hears the signature
of Charles III. Fletcher. if they would
guard the health of their children. Par
ents and mothers. in particular, ought to
carefully examine the Castoria advertise
ments which have been appearing in this
paper. and to remember that the wrapper
of every bottle of genuine Castoria bears
the fac-simile signature of Ghas. H..
Fletcher. under whose supervision it has
been manufactured continuously for over
thirty years. Philadelphia Bulletin.

so after the Morehead dream seemed to

do it will be greater benefactOrs than
those who can make two blades Of

THE SOUTH MUST SOLVE THE PRO BLEM

s'The Federal Government has aban-
doned the colored race to the Southern
States" So spoke Rev. ID. A. Long, D..
D.. Ii. D.. President Of Antioch Col
lege. at the Teachers Assembly in the
opening address on Tuesday night. Dr.
Long is one of the leading educators Of
the State of Ohio: he is in touch with
educators and leaders of thought
throughout the. North; and he is a gen
tleman who is specially well fitted to
discern the drift of popular sentiment.
Every friend of the negro as well, as
of the South, will hope that DIR. Long
is right in his assertion. Next to the
gro and the South by foisting millions
Of voters in no wise qualified for suf-
frage upon us has been the vicious ten
dency of the Federal Government to re-
gard the negro as ward of the ma
ton" to hamper the only people that
understand the negro in their conscien-
tious effort to do the best for him and
themselves, to encourage him to aspire
and make himself a pestiferous and
dangerous element in politics instead OF
an. industrious and Indispensable factor
in the commercial economy of the South.
If the Federal Government has in truth
seen the futility and harmfulness of
this course, then indeed one of the chief
obstacles in the. way of adjusting soner-
Gus conditions has been removed
The Southern States stand ready, now
as in the past, to undertake the equita-
BILE solution of the so-called negro prob
lem. There are good reasons for the be-
lief that the North has at last come
to understand this and to recognize, if
it does not admit, its own failure. 1t
is, of course, not to be expected that the
South will hereafter be free from the
intermeddling of those well-meaning and
specialized philosophers Of Back. Bay,
who solve intricate social problems
while you wait by the simple process of
diyesting the man of his human COM
plexities and making him mere unit
of the Scheme, or from the misrepresen-
tatiOn of that class of Northern provin-
Gals who still hold that no good thing
can come out of Nazareth, but that the
plain. sensible, well-meaning, hard
headed citizen of the North should at
last understand that his peer in the
South knows matters at his own door,
that he is inclined to leave the South
erner to manage them, or at most to
offer aid where aid will not hinder, this
is long step forward.
So far as this State is concerned, it
proposes as the first and Indispensable
step in the REIMBURSEMENT to purify a suf-
frage polluted without it's consent and
even against it's impotent protest; to
eliminate that it may elevate. 1t will
do this in its own way, and possibly
in a way that will not appeal to the
citizens of the whole country because
they can not understand local conditions,
but it will do it without malice to the
negro and with an intimate knowledge
of the faults and virtues, the strength
and weakness of both races.
