BEHIND IN NEW ENGLAND.

Charlotte Observer
Mr.. James B. Dill, the distinguished
New York and New Jersey corporation
lawyer, spent part OF bis summer va
cation touring rural New England in
an automobile, aud returning gave
this as one of his experiences
Gin one old town, Balcbertown,
Mass, said Mr.. Dill, e man of 80 years
old told us that there were no young
people in the place, they having mar
riei and gone away, leaving the Id
folks and unmarried women. The
roads are unknown even to the natives.
The only information you get Is This
road leads to Farmer So-and So's,' and
he'll tel! you who lives beyond"
If this old bud had said, "beyant,'
where he is quoted as saying "teyoni,'
there would have been nothing in this
interview to distinguish him from one
OF the "po' whites" Of the South. But
really, who would have expected to
have read of such primitive life and &C
great isolation in New England Blu,
the New York Sun shyly intilnates
that the old man was having fun with
Mr.. Dill.

GEORGE WHITES COLONY.

George III. White, who once repre-
scented this district in congress by the
grace of the third party, is settling a
colony of negroes on tract of land in
the lower end OF Cape May county New
Jersey. The tract is $500 acres in ex-
tent, and the Baltimore Sun says that
already many negro families from this
State and Virginia haye settled there
on. 1t is Whites purpose to build
several canning factories and to so d.
versify employments as to make the
colony as near self-sustalnlng as posi-
bic. His experiment will be watched
with much interest, and the Southern
or is not alone in wishing him success.

1t would be funny it George H.
White were to COLOMBO enough negro
voters ON bis New Jersey lands to give
them political control and he shoulc
secure the nomination and election tc
congress or to the state legislature

cuested TO meet in the House of Rep

son. Let every cotton growing county

meeting and co or crate for a minimum
price of ten cents pound.

estimated the crop to be only 10000.

prices, Secure low rates by buying

BURLINGTON, N. j., UNDE r
WATER.


Burlington, n. j., Oct. IL This
town is suffering from the worst flood
in Its histo.y, approximately four-ffths
of the place being under water, caused
by the tremendous flood in the Della
ware river. The highest point in the
town is only three feet above the flood
in some of the streets and as the river
is still rising, it is feared that the situa-
ton will become more serious.
The water is rushing down the main
street so rapidly that people who are
navigating through the town in boats
are having difficult time of 1t. The
flood cut new channel back of the
town, washing away three wagon roads
and the Mt. Holly bridge. Five per-
sons were rescued from house In the
river today in sight of the hundreds of
on-Iookers. The building was a two
story frame house, of Florence, near
here. It had been surrounded by va
ter. It's occupants sought refuge in
the upper story. 1t broke from its
foundations into the Delaware river,
floating down stream. Men met the
hocse off this town and took two men
from the roof They broke off shingles
from the top of the house and rescued
two children and the mother from the
attic. They were landed here.

WALTER R. HENnY ASKED TC

Washington, Oct. 10-The resigna-
ton OF Walter r. Henry, national
bank examiner for the States Of North
and South Carolina and Alabama, has
been requested by Comptroller of the
Currency Rldgeiy. Negligence and
carelessness in his work Is the cause as
signed for the req uest for his resigna
ton. This Information was obtain d
at the Treasury Department today, and
when 1t became known created genuine
surprise among Tar Heels here.
The demand for Mr.. Henry's resig.
nation was made several days ago, but
as yet it has not been received. The
presumption is that the Carolinian
Will not surrender his very profitable
position without putting up a fight,
and his arrival here with ChairmanRol.
Inns is not unexpected. The principal
charge against Mr.. Henry is that he
has neglected his work and is far be.
hind in bis examinations and reports
to the comptroller. He has been or.
dered bc the department to cease Wis
tations.. to. banks In his territory, and Il
the same time his resignation was re.

A WORD TO SCHOOL CHI DREN,

On the first page of this issue we
print an article from the Kinston Free
Press to the pupils of the graded school
there. 1t is good reading for the chill
dren of Scotland Neck and at the open
ing of our new graded schools here we
think it appropriate to print 1t and
call attention to 1t.
If all the children will heed the sug-
gestlons in the article referred to they
will find great help In their work, and
In the future years they will be grateful
that they read these suggestions and
needed them.
The COMMONWEALTH hopes that the
children in the Scotland Neck school
may have a good and prosperous year
and that in the performance OF their
various duties they will be happy and
that when the first year OF the new
school closes teachers and pupils may
all be able to look back upon a pleas
ant year together.
