WHAT INCOMING CAPITAL 1EANs.

What incoming capital means for
community is not always fully
realized and appreciated by the peo-
pie where such capital seeks invest
ment.
1t is not merely the seller of the
property to the new conner who is
benefited but every property owner
in the place is benefited, for the
buying both stimulates values, where
property is purchased, and the
money paid means new capital to the
seller of the property, and is that
much gain in the circulating medium
n the community.
When incoming capital means new
manufacturing plants, then such an
investment means both public and
private benefit to the community.
Besides these increased benefits to
the seller and the people of COM
munity, when new capital comes into
it. there is the stir and change which
1T produces in almost all commercial
Zines.
The buyer has to become active in
his new home, in order to make his
property productive, whether it be
in the mercantile or manufacturing
line.
If a manufacturing plant, then it
means demand for labor, new
houses for the laborers, and with this
building comes the demand for the
materials with which to construct
the new homes.
1t is this incoming capital which
seeking investment, makes an added
increase of prosperity to even the
most thriving of places.
| But before it voluntarily seeks a new
! place, there must be an attraction
furnished for capital, there must be
an advertisement of the merits of :
community, for money in these time:
is being so actively sought from al
| sides. that only the enterprisins
town or community secures it.
Like the non-advertising merchant
vino sits down waiting for customers
so is the community which fails tt
offer attractions and make public it:
advantages SO that foreign capita
! NAV be drawn to it and become .
part of it, by making investments.
Capital needs encouragement efor'
il seeks home, therefore the necces
sity of preparing the home for it S.
that it may come to stay, and be
come the means of bringing in still
more, to enrich and benefit the com
munity generally, as we'll as the in
dividual.-New Berne Journal.

DON'T MAKE THE WRINKLES DEEPEN,

EvangliSt.)

His form little lower?
Is mothers hair a little gray,
Her step little slower?
Is LIES hill growing hard TO climb?
Make not their pathway sleeper,
Smooth out tina burrows on their brOWS-
o do not make them deeper!
There's nothing makes face seem young,
AS JOY, youth fariest token;
And nothing makes a face grow old
Like hearts that have been broken,
Take heed lest deeds of thine should make
Thy mother be weeper;
Stamp peace upon fathers brow
Don't make the wrinkles deeper.
In doubtful pathways do not 90,
BE tempted not to wander;
Grieve not the hearts that love you so,
But make their love grow fonder.
Much have thy parents borne for the thee,
Be now their tender keeper;
And let them lean upon thy tender love
Don't make the wrinkles deeper.
Be layi ii with thy loving deeds,
Be patient, true and tender;
And make the path that ageward leads,
AglOw with earthly splendor.
Some day. thy dear ones, stricken low,
Must yield to death, the reaper;
And you will then be glad to know
You made no wrinkles deeper.

We have just received from the
author, and just read the second
edition Of an address Of Maj Robert
Bingham, of the Asheville Bingham
School, delivered at Washington, d.
c., and Madison, Wisconsin, before
the National Educational Associations
Of these places, 1884, and we have
enjoyed greatly what we regard as
the most striking, the most nutty
and the most marrowy production we
have read for many years. 1t is our
wont, when publication strikes us at
its outset to read with pencil in hand
and mark the most striking passages.
We did so while reading this address
of Maj. Bingham, and in looking back,
after finishing, we found that we had
unconsciously marked nearly every
paragraph in it. We are really very
much inclined to put this address Of
three greatest speeches of the Nine
teenth Century, making in number 4,
in company with ssGaston at the
University" in 1882, Choate at Dart
mouth College on Webster the in
early Fifties, and Grady at Boston, on
the the anniversary of the landing Of
the Pilgrims. In fact Bingham's ad-
dress recalls Grady to us very forci-
bly,, and we believe antedates it. We
had, long before we knew him, given
the Major credit for breadth and
weight of brain and that old sus-
picion was confirmed by an address
delivered in this town, ten or fifteen
years ago. 1t solved question that
had long troubled us as to the cause
of the fact, why Eastern Carolina had
furnished more big men to the old
North State than Western Carolina.
His address was an elaborate proof
that the history Of the world showed
that broad waters were the breeding
grounds of great men.
The address is cogent and con-
vincing, patriotic and manly. Every
paragraph is gem. In looking over
it we can find only four words to
disapprove and we find so much to
commend that we fear we are hyper
critical in referring to them. These
words-''as we saw it." These words
are too apologize. 1t is a phrase, so
often used by Southern speakers that
it has become stereotype in Southern
literature. 1t is a sly admission that
our struggle in the civil war was of
doubtful fidelity to duty. The state
ment that we had done our duty, .'as
we saw it, in that fratricidal conflict,
is an equivocal compliment. 1t was
a necessity. We had to take up
arms. Duty and honor both de-
manded it, and the disinterested
world saw it as we saw it. Why
apologize for it by an intimation that
others did not see the duty in it that
we ourselves did. 1t was duty to
ourselves, to our homes. to the con-
| stitution of our common country, and
furnishes another to the many cases
in human history, in which the
Almighty Ruler overrules human
judgment and in the place of duty
done and failing in it's purpose, sup
plies mercy and kindness.
