BETTER TO DEAL HONESTLY WITH
THE PUBLIC.
Greenville Reflector.

One of the most absurd things we
have read latel? was the attempt to
get up a petition among the mer-
chants of kinston to ask the Free
Press to suppress the news of case of
smallpox in that town. Ii such a
petition could have had the effect in
tended it would have been little short
of criminal, and the Free Press did
itself credit in not complying with it.
1t does not pay to deal falsely with
the public. The existence of small
pox could not be kept secret. and
the merchants of kinston ought to
have known that false rumors gaining
circulation through suppression of
facts would be far more damaging to
their interests than to give full and
honest statement of the condition
through their home paper. Deal
honestly with the public and give
them the facts, and danger is at Cnce
minimized. Wilson played false in
this matter and kept Information sup
pressed as TO the existence of small
poX there until the county became
full of the pest

MERITED TRIBUTE TO A DlSTlN-
GUISHED NORTH CAROLINIAN.

Edward Gillian in the Charlotte
News pays this merited tribute to the
venerable and accomplished editor OF
the Wilmington Messenger-Dr. Kings
bury - than whom no man has
wrought better for North Carolina
with polished pen and variable vo-
cabulary:
OF all the ainly now liv-
ing-who have "done the State some
service pre-eminence must be ac-
corded the Nestor of the press-the
dean of our letters-Dr. +. B. Kings
bury, the editor of the Wilmington
Messenger. From my youth up his
kindliness to me has been my unfail-
ing inspiration, and / know others
who have for him the same sense Of
personal obligation.
No man in or out of the State with
in my knowledge has written with
such constant and sustained ability
daily for generation upon the in
Vulnerable subjects which came up
for comment within that time than
he. During all that time he has
written with unvarying taste, sym
patty and Observation-Disclosures broad
scholarship without pedantry-with
unprecedented fidelity to the highest
literary and intellectual ideals.
Through it all he has addressed him
self to his work with the spirit OF the
gentleman and the scholar.
"TO Art
He held his pen in trust
Not serving shame or lust
The range Of his Information
bookish, historical, personal, reminis-
cent, etc.-is simply amazing and his
contributions to the learning, the
letters and the general advancement
of the State are notable for their
great quantity and high quality.
What the rest Of us have done and
are doing looks and always will look
insignificant beside his monumental
achievements He is the Gladstone

JUDGE WALTER CLARk'S MEMO
RIAL.
Elizabeth City Economist.


We are now engaged in carefully
reading the labOrious work of Judge
Walter Clark, in editing the histories
of the several Regiments and Battal-
ions from North Carolina in the great
Civil War between the States of this
Union.
We pause in our pernsal of the
work to express our admiration of the
great unseltish work that Judge Clark
has done for us and we cannot sutfi-
GENTLY express our gratitude for the
patriotism it exhibits.
1t was labor OF years and of love
and no historian of North Carolina
has shown greater love than this de-
votion of labor and expense, to a
great cause in which the good name
and fame of North Carolina was
folded away, embalmed in the sacred
blood Of heroes and patriots, and
slowly fading away from the memo
ries of the coming generations of men,
until Judge Clark, without pecuniary
compen sation, placed it on record in
enduring and authentic form, there
to rest for all time in the custody of
the ''art preservative' until the Eng
lish language has become dead Ian
guage and its knowledge persisted
from the earth.
1t was delicate and patriotic task
of Judge Clark, placed upon him by
patriotic and distinguished men, who
were his comrades in the war which
he was to commemorate. which was
not sought by him, and he is entitled
to the gratitude of his countrymen
for his unseltsh work. 1t was Her
culean task, and when we look at the
work Of editing with careful scrutiny
over three thousand pages Of printed
matter, reviewing, correcting and re-
writing many parts of it and doing all
the correspondence thereto, we are
amazed at the great labor required to
accomplish his task.
But he has done it. His fourth
volume is nearly completed, and we
can only say ''well done, good and
faithful servant" of North Carolina.
We propose to examine the whole
| work carefully and from time to time
review it as best we can. and now
while we stand upon this skirmish
line of considering the book, we lift
our chapeau to our gifted countryman
and give him the cheering word oil
| congratulation and compliment.

THE Henderson GOLD LEAF says:

Senator Pritchard showed political
honesty and courage in standing up to
Harry Skinner as he did in the face OF
strong party opposition. And Tor tins
he is entitled to the credit Of not being
without gratitude as stp0lltclans are.
The GOLD LEAF being i'll good and
regular standing, the Obserccr hopes
that it may venture to copy and give
its appreciation to the foregoing with
out mourning the risk OF being read
out of the party some more. There
was nothing for Senator Pritchard or
his party, in Il political way. in this
Skinner appointment, but lie thought
that Skinner had elped him to secure
his reelection to the Senate and as a
matter of personal gratitude he back
ed him for district attUrneyship and
won, against the combined influence
of his political fellows in the East

The strength of any community is
in its intelligence. Show me a COM
mpnity with 1000 ignorant men and
you will observe it to be weak. but
the community having 1000 educated
men will be one of strength and
power. The influence of our State
can only be made great by more edu-
cation. North Carolina is great
State. 1t was the first settled by the
English; first to stir the matter of
independence and first to publish the
declaration. One of the last to 90
into the Union until State rights were
guaranteed, and it was one of the last
to leave. But our State has remain
