The semi-weekly messenger. [volume] (Wilmington, N.C.) 1897-1908, 1904-05-10

The first matter Of Importance duringl
the year was the suggestion Of the
president that, as it was advisable toI
bring the members Of the chamber inI
as close contact as possible, the job
bers agree to meet at the chamber
daily, at some convenient hour to be
agreed upon, discuss their business
with each other and make their pur-
chases from our brokers. To facilitate
this idea, it was recommended that
booths be provided for the brokers in
which to display their samples. This
plan met with the general approval of
the trade and was adopted by the
chamber, but as the necessary space
was not available for the booths, it was
found necessary to abandon the idea
for the time being.
Mr.. I. NJ. Bear suggested as a means
of increasing our jobbing trade, that
the merchants agree to pay the railroad
fare OF out-of-town merchants visiting
the city and purchasing a stipulated
amount of goods. This suggestion was
adopted and the plan briefly outlined
in attractive folders which were dis
tributed throughout Wilnington,s ter
ritory. The result was disappointing.

The man who takes charge Of a
church paper takes charge Of trou-
bles of which the average man knows
nothing: but if he is true to God and
his vows, he will make himself a
power for good. But he will often
be misunderstood and severely crit
icised. and those whom he has loved
and trusted most will furnish critics
and fault finders OF whom he never
dreamed in the other spheres OF life.
Exchange.
The man who takes charge of any
sort of paper and does his duty faith
fully takes charge of trouble. He
NAV expect to be criticized and mis-
understood. But man who IS not
criticized and misunderstood in the
work of journalism may count his ef-
forts as failures and his work Of lit
tie account. He is obliged to pub
fish something at some time or other
which some one will think should not

be published and 70 tread on toes that
will try.-to make it unpleasant for
him, but the only course is to pur-
sue the path of duty and to tell the
truth and be fair and just to every
one. 1t is much more pleasant to
commend than to condemn or CEN
sure. The editor would always rath~
er say nice things than those which
are unpleasant But sometimes the
path duty lies elsewhere and he
must follow it if he would maintain
his own self-respect. You may do
a man ninety-nine favors and If you
fail in the one hundredth he will for
get the other ninety and nine and
hold the one against you. SO you
may say as many pleasant things III
the newspaper as you know and help
build up your community but If you
happen to say just one that dis
pleaScs all the others are tor
gotten. So the editor has only to
feel that he has done right and to
know that he has not been unfair or
unjust and it will all come right after
awhile.
Then, too, everybody in the COM
munity knows just how the paper
should be run. They know great
deal better than the editor, and maybe
they do in reality.
We read the following in an ex-
change few days ago which explains
the case very forcibly:
How is your school of Journalism
doing?"
well, it is little slow. We have
no trouble in getting people who are

is to find anybody who doesn't think
he knows all about how newspaper
ought to be run"

CT the town. 4 citizens meeting was
called for Tuesday night to conslde,
the question of nominating mayor
and aldermen. There were only
about dozen who attended the meet
ing. Those who were present de-
c:ded to postpone the meeting and
try to. have another tonight. So an.
other citizens meeting is called for
tonight Everybody expects the can
didates to be nominated in primary
but there should at least be sufficient
interest taken to get a few of the
business men to attend these meetings.
The selection of mayor and al
dermen is an important matter. IT
the few who attend these meetings
would decide to nominate ticket
and have no primary then we sus-
pect some one would kick They
have the power to do that very thing.
The meeting is called TO decide the
question of how nominations are to
be made, whether by citizens meet
ing or primary and if BY the latter to
adopt rules to govern it. : Let there

We give good deal of space to-
dav to the ceremonies incident to the
dedication OF the new building at
Newberry college. We make no
apologies for it. Newberry college
is one of the institutions of this COM
munity and not only of the town, but
OF the entire county. This event
marks an epoch in the history of the
college. We are all rejoiced at the
prosperity which has attended the in
stitution for the last few years and
we hope this is only the beginning
Of the good things which the future
holds in store. We are glad at the
honor and the recognition which were
given to Smeltzer and Holland and
Cromer during the exercises of Mon>
d, evening and we would not de-
tract one whit from it, but there were
others who labored and sacrificed
with these men and who helped them
bring the college through the crisis
Their services should not be forgot
Zen. We could not help thinking of
Arlington whose devotion to the COL
lege and whose ability and versatility
as teacher many of the earlier grad
uates recall. He spent the best
wears of his life: in the service of the
college and more efficient teacher
never filled a chair in the institution.
Then here is Capt. Pifer Of our own
town, who labored there for several
years. Let us honor the men at the
head. but not forget the men who
stood behind the guns.
