and the Carolinas is experiencing what
is perhaps the greatest period ofac-
tivity within the memory of the aver
age operator Our schedule of prices
grade for grade, is considerably high
er than year ago.
Whereas the better grades of
lumber formerly constituted 90 per
cent. of the total, we now obtain but
"a per cent, which practically offsets
year by year the advances in the sell
ing price which we are able to affect,
making the net returns from lumber
operations now just about the same as
ten wears ago. Together with the
marked decrease in the output of the
upper grades, there has been cores
ponding increase in the volume of the
lower grades-box and cullS-aS the
total output has remained about the
same.
An increasing quantity of air dried
lumber is being made into scantling,
dimension, mine props, etc, and ship
ped to the mining districts of Pennsyl-
vania, West Virginia and to New York
city, Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington, in direct competition with
hemlock and sprice. The demand
from this channel is increasing in a
striking manner and is bound to con-
tinue.
Our mills are oversold on all items
on an average of thirty days.
Building operations continue at q
phenomenal rate, aand the usual ac-
tivity in the lumber business is
merely an indication and reflex of the
general prosperity obtaining through
out the entire country.

MANY sPoRTsMEN ATTRACTED.
Abundance of Game and Excellence
of Fishing in Atlantic and North
Carolina Territory.
(Goldsboro Argus }

The abundance of game and the
excellence of fishing in the territory
along the Atlantic and North Carolina
railroad has caused Northern sports
men to establish many shooting pre-
serves and hunting lodges in that sec
ton Some of them have secured
control of the shooting privileges on
large tracks of land and have built
well-appointed club houses. Proba-
bly, the best known of these are Har-
Dor Island Club and Carteret Lodge.
There are many others, however of
more recent establishment and still
others are soon to be built Among
the latter is a club house at Cherry
Point, near Havelock, on which a
number of Raleigh sportsmen are in
terestcd.
Mr. D. w Morton, of Beaufort, is
also forming a club for the erection
of a hunting lodge on a tract of land
consisting of about twelve hundred
acres, three miles west of Newport
This land is in the heart of the deer
hunting region and is said to be well
stocked with game, also with wild
turkey, partridges and squirrels On
the land is pond or lake, affording
splendid fishing Though the plans
of the club in detail are not known,
it is understood that a number of
New Bern, Norfolk and Atlanta peo-
pie will compose it's memberships.
This will undoubtedly make one of the
finest hunting and fishing preserves in
the State.

A DINNER TO TAFTs PARTY.
ROosevcIt's Position in Respect TO the
Catholic Church.
(By the Associated Press }

Manila. August 10.-A dinner was
given tonight by Archbishop HARDY
to the men of Secretary OF War Iatt
party.
Secretary Taft said in response to
a toast to the President:
The changes effected by the Span
ish war, bringing the United States
for a time into Cuba. Porto Rico and
the Philippines brought about a more
necessary association between the
government of the United States and
the church of Rome than has ever
heretofore existed 1t was not that
the Constitution of the United states
was changed thereby; it was not that
under the Constitution any particular
religion or church was to be recog-
niZed: but it was that, in taking over
from Spain the responsibility of gov
ernment in these dependencies, the
State and the church which were a
single tie under the Spanish regime
had to be separated, and 1t became
necessary that an association should
be established which, under the cir
cumstances prevailing in the United
States proper, had never before been
necessary;
"Now, the toast to which l am to
respond is a toast to the President
of the United States; that office Is
now occupied by Theodore Roosevelt.
Theodore Roosevelt is not member
Of the Roman Catholic church He is
a member of the Dutch Reformed
church. and is a Protestant but his
principal rule in the administration
of his great office, as far as II aftecIs
churches, has been announced by MN
in this wise, and l do not think at
this hour that l can do better to illus
trate his character than to say what
| he has said:
That he wishes. as the President
of the United States to act toward
! the Roman Catholic church as he
would have a President who was d
| Catholic. act toward the Protestant
| church"

more genuine pride than the way in
which we liberated Cuba, and then,
instead of insanely abandoning it To
chaos, stayed in direction of the af--
fairs of the island until we had put
il on the right path and finally gave
it freedom and helped it as it started
on the life of an independent republic.
"Santo Domingo has now made ar
appeal to us to help it in turn, and
not only every principle of wisdom
but every generous instinct within us
bids us respond to the appeal The
conditions in SantO1S Domingo have for
a number of years grown from bad to
worse until recently all society was OH
the verge of dissolution.
The patience of her foreign creditors
had become exhausted, and. at least
one foreign nation was on the point
of intervention and was only prevent
ed from intervening by the unofficial
assurance Of this government that it
would itself strive to help Santo Do
mingo in her hour of need.
Accordingly the Executive Depart
ment of our government negotiated a
treaty under which we are to try to
help the finances. This treaty is pend
ing before The Senate whose consent
to it is necessary. In the meantime
we have made a temporary arrange
ment which will last until the Senate
has had time to take action upon the
treaty. Under this arrangement we
see to the honest administration of
the custom houses, collecting the rev.
enues turning over foTty-fiVe per cent.
