GEORGE DAVIS, PEERLESS
ORATOR OF The CAPE FEAR
BY CICERO w. HARRIS.

1t has been my opinion for some
years. Whether his mentality was
quite equal to one or two who sat on
the bench / do not care to discuss
In the larger field of craftsmanship
one or two men may have exerted on
this generation a greater immediate
influence. But for powers of imagin-
alton, services to his people in a
time of severe trial and for the
soundhess and sympathy of his indi-
vidualism, the purity and nobility of
his life, Davis stands ahead of them
all, more like Washington or Lee than
any of them.

Protecting Pests.

the folly in some States of making
game laws to protect rabbits is well il
Illustrated by the experience reported i'm
the papers of the Messrs Harrison,
nurserymen, at Berlin, Maryland,
where rabbits have lately destroyed
over 800 worth of young trees And
yet it is now the close season there
for rabbits, and a fine of SIS is the
penalty of killing one. Therefore it
is expected that a man will stand by
and let his trees be destroyed in order
to protect the rabbits for the pleasure
OF Few wandering sportsmen. While
tnere is some reason for the protec-
ton of useful birds, there is no rea-
son Whatever for the protection of the
rabbit, for where there is no closed
season for them they cannot be ex-
terminated. The Baltimore Sun, not
ing Messrs. Harrisons loss, suggests
that it would be wise to feed the rab-
bits to prevent their taking the bark
OH the trees. But as rabbits are as
bad, or worse pests than the English
sparrow, we can see no reason for
protecting them. If we lived in Mary
land and were plagued with rabbits,
we would test the law by killing all
we could, for we do not believe that
any court would fine a man for pro-
tecting his plants from wild animals.
In States where there is no close sea-
son for rabbits they are slaughtered
by the thousands, and yet no one can
IND that they grow any scarcer. A
land owner is fully justified in pro-
tectfng his crops, and an appeal to the
courts will prove 1t, we believe. Our
advice to the Maryland fruit growers
is to shoot the pests and combine for
the testing of the law that interferes
with mans use of his land Farm
ers certainly have some rights, as.
well as the idle s9ortsmen.

The rank and file of the small fry
put more faith in Aycock, the private
citizen, than they did in Aycock, the
Governor, especially as the watermelon
season approaches.
At a spelling bee in Gastonia last
week, thirty picked spoilers from the
graded school were pitted against fif-
teen old-timers, who studied the blue
back when they were boys. Gradual
ly the graded school ranks began to
thin, and when the smoke of battle
cleared away all the modern spoilers
had vanished and three grim blue
back warriors stood. There is no use
talking, good friends, the blue-b back is
the proper thing.
The Legislature of 1905 is the only
one we have ever known in which the
temperance forces got everything they
demanded, and in the very way in
which the demands were made The
liquor dealers of this session were
wofully weak, the stronger men of two
years ago having been displaced by
temperance representatives. The
Watts law, by the addition of the
Ward bill, will be very much more eff
fective.
The men who are most effective in
public life are those who know most
about how the people think and they
know this by thinking that way them
selves. Many a man has failed To
please his constituents because he had
so little knowledge of their wants and
needs. The people will stay with him
who has studied and mastered senti-
ment, and that is possible only to the
man who feels sympathy for the mass
es of men, and who sincerely wishes
to help them. Folks know their
friends, and they are very hard to
fool.
The lines of Lexington have been
heightened so that now we see the
statement made that 5000 people are
living within it's corporate limits
Lexington, ought to have done this
long ago, and Charlotte, Greensboro,
and other cities in North Carolina
ought to do the same thing. There is
no use in Dragging about having thir-
ty or forty thousand people, brethren;
the world puts you down at the lit
tie eighteen thousand the census gives
you.
