WILCOX SAYS HAWAII HAS
Benefited BY ANNEXATION

eral decision the Constitution has not
followed the flag. But in the case OF
Hawaii, the organic law by which we
were made a territory of the United
States recited that the Constitution
shall have the same force and effect
within the said territory as elsewhere
in the United States" This gives US
not only the Constitution. but also all
of those important rights and guaran-
tees under the Constitution. We have
entire freedom OF trade between the
Islands and the States, and this is not
dependent upon any revenue laws, but
arises from the fact that the Constitu-
ton extends over the Islands. We also
have the right of American citizen
ship, which is not possessed by Porto
Ricans or the people of the Philip
pines, even though these latter islands
belong to the United States. Hawaii
also has a Delegate in Congress, which
is OF much advantage to our people In
allowing their needs to be brought to
the attention of Congress. In the case
of Porto Rico there is a Commissioner
to represent the people, but as the
Porto Rican act does not give the Com
missioner a seat in the House of Rep
resentatives, and the right of debate,
there is not the same advantage which
Hawaii possesses in being allowed a
Delegate in Congress. Our people feel,
therefore, that they have been treated
in the spirit OF justice by the Ameri-
can Government, and this brings about
feeling of contentment among the
people at the new condition of affairs.
BAD LAND LAWS.
One of our chief troubles is in not
4, having a good system of land laws,
! which will encourage small farmers,
| like the American homestead law. With
us the land question is something like
that in the Philippines, except that the
friars hold the lands in the Philip
pines and the sugar corporations hold
! the lands in Hawaii. This condition is
| recognized not only by the Hawaiians
| but also by the Americans. out of the
total OF 100000 acres of lands In the
| Islands, 1000. 900 acres are in the hands
| OF about seventy persons. who hold in
| fee simple. Even the other 1000, 900 is
| under the control of these seventy men
| on long leases. Some of the leases are
about to expire, and under the organic
act the Governor has the right to re-
lease them. / think 1t would be best.

The experience of Hawaii seems to
show that Porto Rico and Cuba should
be annexed to the United States. They
are in much the same position as Ha-
wall, being near this country, and both
being interested in sugar production.
Some OF our Hawaiian sugar planters
have opposed Cuban annexation on the
ground that 1t would bring in great
quantities of Cuban sugar free OF duty,
to the ruin of Hawaiian sugar. But
l think this fear is not well founded,
as Hawaii will always be able to mar
ket her sugar in the West. AS a gen
eral proposition the same reasons that
made 1t desirable to annex Hawaii
make 1t desirable to annex Cuba and
Porto Rico.
But the experience in annexing Ha-
wall has little or no bearing on the
Philippines, as the islands are SO far
ferent people and different customs,
and nothing In common with Ameri-
cans. The Christian religion prevails
through Hawaii, among the natives
and foreign born. Cuba and Porto
Rico also have the Christian religion.
But in the Philippines a large part Of
the islands has not been Christianized.
These are conditions which show that
the experience in Hawaii will not APP
ply to the Philippines, but will apply
to the annexation of Cuba and Porto
Rico. ROBERT w. WILCOX.

boro and throughout this section,
where the paaents are sowell known
and have many relatives and friends,
will be both interested in the follow
ing, which we clip from the Balti
more Sun of last Saturday:
''To see tot of four yoars, whose
tiny feet extend only short wey be-
low the piano seat of a piano stool,
calmly playing "Maryland, My
Maryland" is not an everyday
sight, but the friends of little Ruth
Farmer, daughter of Mr.. and Mrs.
w. S. Farmer, 2410 Madison aven-
ue, have listened to that stirring mel
ody executed by such mite.
"Little Ruth, who is a veritable
baby in every other respect, has for
the past year exhibited a most unus-
ual aptitude for mdsic. When 3
years old she suddenly, without pre-
! liminary musical training, began to
play simple melodies, and now can
reproduce any harmony which she
has once acquired mentally.
"Ruth is ignorant Of all musical
notes and has still to be lifted to the
piano stool, but once there she sue
cessfully plays almost anything she
has heard and which her tiny hands
| can compass. To all simp e airs she
adds perfectly correct pass, and if
the melody has grace notes or minor
notes, sharps or flats, they are intro
| duced in correct time and place. She
crosses her tiny hands when the bass
carries the air to the treble with ap-
| parently perfect ease, and when her
| little melodies have been executed
| drops her head baby fashion on the
keyboard and shows smiling row
of pearly little teeth.
AThe child is wholly unaffected and
unconscious of her genius, and SO far
her parents have wisely refrained
i from giving her any musical instruc-
! tion. Her genius is evidently in
herited. Through her mother, who
was Nils Taylor, Of North Caro-
lima, she is related to ex-Gov. Robert
Taylor, of Tennessee, whose musical
genius is we'll known. Mrs. Farmer
as a child played violin which had
been left for the first time within
her reach, and all the members o.
the family have musical ability. Mrs
George S. Everhart. of Baltimore
who is ssthe eldest sister of little
Ruth, is also skillful musician"

TO THE CITIZENS OF COLDS
BORO.

On the 25th day of August / sent
a specimen Of city water taken from
one of the city taps after it had been
filtered, to the Biologist at A. & M.
College for analysis. I have this
day received his report which is as
follows, viz:
"The water contains Bacteria of
sewage and putrefactive groups. The
water is polluted, though not badly.
If source cannot be improved, would
boil water until after copious rains
wash the water shed clean.'
All consumers of city water should
boil it for minutes to kill all bac-
terra. Below I append "Notes on
Drinking Water'' which should in
terest the public.
w. II. H. COBB,
Chairman Board of Health of the
City.
NOTES ON DRINKING WATER.
7. The diseases most often trans
mitted by polluted drinking waterare
| typhoid fever, cholera, spotted fever,
dysentery and acute intestinal collie.
2. A pure and reliable water sup
| ply is the first requisite for continued
good health. Shallow, open wells
| are very dangerous. The dug we'll
! is now obsolete, and should be,
whenever practicable, abandoned for
| the driven or bored well. These
wells have casting of galvanized
iron. They should never be less than
| 70 feet deep.
3. Where dug wellsare continued
in use pump should be used rather
| than a bucket The platform over
the well should be water-tight. The
| casing of stone or hard brick should
| of the ground. It should be covered
with good cement inside and out.
4. Rain or surface water should
not flow towards a we'll from a
| stable, pig pen, or any such place.
| None of these should be located, nor
| should kitchen or chamber slops be
dep osited on the ground within $50
feet of any we'll Or spring.
| 5. Dug wells should be pumped
! Or bailed dry and ali sediment down
| to original bottom removed at least
once year. The inside of casing
should be carefully examined and all
cracks filled with cement or mortar
of good quality.
9. The use of cistern or rain wa
ter for drining is not safe in Iocali-
ties where the English sparrow or
the common pigeon abound. These
birds defile roofs with their excre-
ment and also carry thereupon pol
lutted material such as straw, rags
and waste paper.
| Z. The use of patent household
filters is not recommended unless
they can be and are frequently and
thoroughly cleaned and disinfected
by boiling.
8. When a water is suspected of
being polluted before using it should
be heated to 40 F. for 10 minutes.
or boiled for 3 minutes. These tenn
peratures for the times given are
fatal to all known pathogenic bac-
terra. The "fat" taste of boiled wa
ter can be removed by pouring the
water few times from one vessel
into another held 2 or feet below.

FOR REGISTER OF DEEDS.

EDITOR ARGUs:-Wayne county
has so many good men who are as
pirants for the Office of Register of
Deeds that mistake will not be
made whoever is nominated for that
csice by the county convention, but
the many friends of Mr.. w. G.. Britt
point with pride to his career in life
as a christian, a citizen, business
man, and as a Democrat, and say to
the Democracy of Wayne county
that Mr.. Britt would make worthy
successor to the most popular Regis
ter of Deeds Wayne county has ever
had.
township, and grew to manhood
there. He is the son of the late Moses
Britt, than whom no better farmer,
citizen, or christian gentleman ever
lived in that section of the county,
man honored and loved by all who
knew him; always taking the lead in
those things which tend towards the
betterment Of mankind. VIM. G..
Britt's course ia life has been consis-
tent with the training he received
while he labored with his father on
his farm during his boyhood and
young manhood. Mr.. Britt's course
in life is to be admired by every
one. He received his preparation
| for college by diligent study while
on his fathers farm. After taking a
course in college he taught several
terms at Falling Creek Academy.
We next find him successful mer-
chant in the city of Goldsboro. The
firm of Hood & Britt was known all
| over the county, and will be long
remem bered by it's customers on ac-
| count Of the many courtesies and
favors shown them by the proprie-
| tors.
| But the firm failed-not because
of the business incapacity of the head
of the firm, but on account of cir
cumstances over which they had no
control. At this point in his life we
see the true characterof the man who
desires to be Register of Deeds OF
Wayne county. Mr.. Britt surrender
ed all to his creditors, even to the
very roof over his head.
The term of coffee seeker" can.
not be applied to Mr.. Britt, for he
has never before sought politica
preferment, but all his life he has
been a Democrat and worked for the

AS TO COUNTY COMMISSION
ERS.

EDITOR ARGUS: AS our conven-
ton draws near the interest of voters
naturally centers upon the selection
OF candidates for the several offices.
Wayne county is fortunate in pos
sessing so eligible a corps of faspifants
and it is matter of congratulatlon
that her prosperity is assured who
ever shall be the lucky nominees.
Nevertheless, as a choice must be
made, it is well to consider carefully
the qualifications Of gentlemen who
will come before us and, make our
selections after due deliberation.
And, as there is no more impor-
tant office within cur gift than that
Of our County Commissioners, [ re-
spectfully suggest the name of Mr..
Charles f. Herring, for the reason
that he has served us acceptably in
that capacity for the past two years,
possesses intimate knowledge of the
couuty's needs, and while liberal
and progressive in his views, is ever
mindful of her interest.
Many useful and needed improve
ments have been accomplished dur
ing his term, and his county pride
will keep him always interested in
her advancement while maintaining
watchful eye upon her resources.
Messrs. J. P. Smith and Elijah
Edwards have been his Jealous CO.
laborers, and if reelected would con-
tinue to deserve well of their fellow
citizens.
Mr.. Smith declines longer to serve
. and I do not know that Mr.. Edwards
|. desires denomination. In event that
he also withdraws I would suggest
| the name of VIM. Holmes or J. M.
Edgerton, either of whom would
prove worthy successor.
In Mr.. Smiths place M. T. John
son or D. D. Peele would bring to
the discharge of his duties much val
liable experience of the public af-
| fairs.
! AS I have said, the Office Of Coun-
! ty Commissioners is Of great respon-
! sibility, demanding the best business
management within our command
/ and in presenting the name of Mr.
Herring I feel assured that his long
experience as Clerk of our Superior
Court his present service as Com
missioner, and practical knowledge
as a successful farmer and merchan
furnishes ample guaranty that his
| conduct of the Office will be alike
creditable to himself and of materia
advantage to our county.
